If this bond is duly designated for redemption, if payment of the principal hereof, together with accrued interest, and premium, if any, is irrevocably provided for, and if notice of such redemption shall have been duly given, provided for or waived, this bond shall cease to be entitled to the lien of the Indenture from and after the date such payment is irrevocably so provided for and shall cease to bear interest from and after the date fixed for redemption.

The Indenture provides that (1) the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than sixty-six and two-third per cent in principal amount of the bonds at the time outstanding (determined as provided in the Indenture) including, if more than one series of bonds shall be at the time outstanding, not less than sixty-six and two-thirds per cent in principal amount of the bonds at the time outstanding of each series affected, may effect, by an indenture supplemental to the Indenture, further modifications or alterations of the Indenture and of the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders of the bonds and coupons; provided, however, that no such modification or alteration shall be made without the consent of the holder hereof which will (a) extend the maturity of this bond or reduce the rate or extend or otherwise change the time of payment of interest hereon or reduce the amount of the principal hereof or reduce any premium payable on the redemption hereof, or (b) permit the creation of any lien, not otherwise permitted, prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Indenture,

 

18


or alter the equal and proportionate security afforded by the lien of the Indenture for the bonds issued thereunder, or (c) reduce the number or percentage of the principal amount of the bonds upon the consent of the holders of which modifications or alterations may be made as aforesaid or defaults may be waived; and (2) the holders of like percentages of the principal amount of the bonds outstanding and of each series thereof may waive certain uncured past defaults and the consequences thereof.

In certain events of default, the principal of this bond may become or be declared due and payable before maturity as provided in said Indenture.

This bond, with all appropriate coupons, is either singly, or together with other coupon bonds of the same series as this bond, exchangeable at the option of the holder, upon surrender thereof in bearer form and upon payment of a reasonable charge, but subject to the terms, conditions and limitations expressed in said Indenture, for a registered bond or bonds without coupons of the same series as this bond, and of the same aggregate principal amount of any denomination or denominations authorized by the Indenture.

This bond shall pass by delivery except while registered as to principal.

This bond, but not its coupons, may from time to time be registered as to principal at the option of the holder on the books of the Company at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee, and if so registered shall pass only by transfer on such books, unless such transfer shall have been made and registered to bearer, in which case it shall again pass by delivery until again registered. Registration shall not affect the negotiability of the coupons, which shall continue to be transferable by delivery, and the payment of any coupon to the bearer thereof shall be a discharge of the Company in respect of the interest therein mentioned.

It is a part of the contract herein contained that each holder hereof waives all right of recourse to any personal, statutory or other liability of any promoter, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation for the collection of any indebtedness hereunder as more fully provided in said Indenture.

 

19


This bond shall not become obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit under said Indenture until the certificate hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, PUGET SOUND POWER & LIGHT COMPANY has caused these presents to be executed in its corporate name and behalf by its Secretary or one of its Vice Presidents, and by its Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer, thereunto duly authorized, and its corporate seal or a facsimile thereof to be hereto affixed, and has likewise caused the annexed coupons to be authenticated by a facsimile of the signature of its Treasurer, all as of the first day of November, 1959.

bonds without coupons and/or coupon bonds registered as to principal, such notice may be given by registered mail in lieu of such publication; all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

If this bond or any portion hereof ($1,000 or any multiple thereof) is duly designated for redemption, if payment of the principal hereof or of such portion, together with accrued interest, and premium, if any, is irrevocably provided for, and if notice of such redemption shall have been duly given, provided for or waived, this bond or such portion shall cease to be entitled to the lien of the Indenture from and after the date such payment is irrevocably so provided for and shall cease to bear interest from and after the date fixed for redemption.

In the event of the selection for redemption of a portion only of the principal of this bond, payment of the redemption price will be made at the option of the registered owner, either (a) upon presentation of this bond for notation hereon of such payment of the portion of the principal of this bond so called for redemption, or (b) upon surrender of this bond in exchange for a bond or bonds, in either registered or coupon form (but only of authorized denominations of the same series), for the unredeemed balance of the principal amount of this bond.

The Indenture provides that (1) the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than sixty-six and two-thirds per cent in principal amount of the bonds at the time outstanding (determined as provided in the Indenture) including, if more than one series of bonds shall be at the time outstanding, not less than sixty-six and two-thirds per cent in principal amount of the bonds at the time outstanding of each series affected, may effect, by an indenture supplemental to the Indenture, further modifications or alterations of the Indenture and of the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders of the bonds and coupons; provided, however, that no such modification or alteration shall be made without the consent of the registered owner hereof which will (a) extend the maturity of this bond or reduce the rate or extend or otherwise change the time of payment of interest hereon or reduce the amount of the principal hereof or reduce any premium payable on the redemption hereof, or (b) permit the creation of any lien, not otherwise permitted, prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Indenture, or

 

24


alter the equal and proportionate security afforded by the lien of the Indenture for the bonds issued thereunder, or (c) reduce the number or percentage of the principal amount of the bonds upon the consent of the holders of which modifications or alterations may be made as aforesaid or defaults may be waived; and (2) the holders of like percentages of the principal amount of the bonds outstanding and of each series thereof may waive certain uncured past defaults and the consequences thereof.

In certain events of default, the principal of this bond may become or be declared due and payable before maturity as provided in said Indenture.

This bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof in person or by his duly authorized attorney, on books of the Company kept for the purpose, at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee upon surrender of this bond for cancellation and upon payment, if the Company shall so require, of the charges provided for in the Indenture, and thereupon a new registered bond of the same series of like principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor.

The registered owner of this bond at his option may surrender the same for cancellation at said office and receive in exchange therefor the same aggregate principal amount of registered bonds of the same series but of other authorized denominations or coupon bonds of the same series of the denomination of One Thousand Dollars, bearing coupons representing interest from the last interest payment date to which interest has been paid on this bond, or both such registered bonds and coupon bonds, upon payment, if the Company shall so require, of the charges provided for in the Indenture and subject to the terms and conditions therein set forth.

Payment of interest by the Company to the registered holder of this bond will be a discharge of the Company with respect to such interest.

It is a part of the contract herein contained that each holder hereof waives all right of recourse to any personal, statutory or other liability of any promoter, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation for the collection of any indebtedness hereunder as more fully provided in said Indenture.

31


credit against any sinking and improvement fund payment or Bond credits therefor, and all net additions made the basis of a credit against any sinking and improvement fund payment, shall be deemed to be thereupon funded, but only so long as any Bonds of the 1989 Series are outstanding. All Bonds of the 1989 Series so delivered or redeemed shall, if not previously cancelled, be forthwith cancelled by the Trustee.

Forthwith after the filing of the annual sinking and improvement fund certificate preceding each sinking and improvement fund payment date on which the Company will, as shown by said certificate, be required to make to the Trustee a payment in cash for the sinking and improvement fund, the Trustee shall proceed to select for redemption, in the manner provided in Article Ten of the Indenture, a principal amount of Bonds of the 1989 Series equal to the amount of such cash payment and, in the name of the Company, shall give notice as required by the provisions of Section 1.02 hereof and Article Ten of the Indenture of the redemption for the sinking and improvement fund, on the then next ensuing November 1, of the Bonds so selected.

All cash paid to the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall be held by the Trustee as security for the payment of the called Bonds of the 1989 Series until applied as herein provided.

The Company, upon request of the Trustee from time to time, will pay to the trustee an amount equal to the cost of giving notice of redemption of Bonds of the 1989 Series for such fund and any other expense of operation of such fund, the intention being that such fund shall not be charged for such expenses.

33


and otherwise determined in accordance with sound accounting practice; provided, however, that in determining the net income of the Company for the purposes of this Section no deduction or adjustment shall be made for or in respect of (a) charges or credits in connection with the redemption or retirement of any securities issued by the Company, including any amount paid in excess of the sum of (i) the principal amount or par or stated value of securities redeemed or retired and (ii) the unamortized balance of any premium received on the sale of such securities, and also including, in the event that such redemption or retirement is effected with the proceeds of sale of other securities of the Company, any interest or dividends on the securities redeemed or retired from the date on which the funds required for such redemption or retirement are deposited in trust for such purpose to the date of redemption or retirement; (b) profits or losses from sales of property or other assets carried in plant or investment accounts of the Company or from the reacquisition of any securities of the Company, or taxes on or in respect of any such profits; (c) any change in or adjustment of the book value of any assets owned by the Company arising from a revaluation thereof; (d) charges to surplus on account of the amortization or elimination of utility plant adjustment or acquisition accounts or intangibles; or (e) any earned surplus adjustment applicable to any period prior to January 1, 1958.
