FIRSTENERGY GENERATION CORP., a corporation of the State of Ohio (herein, together with its successors and assigns, the “Company”), for value received promises to pay to ________________________________________, as Administrative Agent (as hereinafter defined) under the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined), or registered assigns, the principal sum of [_____________________] Dollars or such lesser principal amount as is equal to the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Advances (as defined in the Credit Agreement), in whole or in installments on such date or dates as the Borrowers (as hereinafter defined) have any obligation to make payments of principal on outstanding Advances under the Credit Agreement, but not later than March 31, 2011, and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount from the time hereinafter provided at such rate per annum on each Interest Payment Date (as hereinafter defined) as shall cause the amount of interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the bonds of this series to equal the amount of interest and fees payable on such Interest Payment Date under the Credit Agreement with respect to the Advances or the Commitments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) thereunder.  Such interest shall be payable on the same dates as interest or fees are payable from time to time pursuant to the Credit Agreement (each such date herein called an “Interest Payment Date”) on and until maturity, or, in the case of any bonds of this series duly called for redemption, on and until the redemption date, or in the case of any default by the Company in the payment of the principal due on any bonds of this series, until the Company’s obligation with respect to the payment of such principal shall be discharged as provided in the Indenture (as hereinafter defined).  The interest on each bond of this series so

The bonds of this series have been issued to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement), in order to secure and provide for, and as collateral security for, the payment when due of the principal of and interest on, and fees with respect to, outstanding Advances under that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2009, among the Company and FirstEnergy Solutions Corp., as Borrowers (collectively, the “Borrowers”), the banks and other financial institutions named therein or parties thereto from time to time and The Royal Bank of Scotland Finance (Ireland), as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) (such Credit Agreement, as amended from time to time, hereinafter the “Credit Agreement”).
 
This bond is one of an issue of Bonds of the Company known as its First Mortgage Bonds, issued and to be issued in one or more series under and secured by an Open-End Mortgage, General Mortgage Indenture and Deed of Trust, dated as of June 19, 2008, duly executed by the Company to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (formerly known as The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.), a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), and indentures supplemental thereto, heretofore or hereafter executed, including the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of March 31, 2009 (as amended, supplemented, modified or restated, the Supplemental Indenture), to which Open-End Mortgage, General Mortgage Indenture and Deed of Trust and all indentures supplemental thereto (collectively referred to as the “Indenture”) reference is hereby made for a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the terms and conditions upon which such Bonds are, and are to be, issued and secured, and the rights of the owners of such Bonds and the Trustee in respect of such security.  As provided in the Indenture, such Bonds may be in various principal sums, are issuable in series, may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary as therein provided; and this bond is one bond of a series entitled “First Mortgage Bonds, Collateral Series A of 2009 due 2011,” created by the Supplemental Indenture, as provided for in the Indenture, and authorized for issuance in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100,000,000.
 
Except as hereinafter provided, this bond shall bear interest (a) from the Interest Payment Date next preceding the date of this bond to which interest has been paid, or (b) if the date of this bond is an Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, then from such date, or (c) if no interest has been paid on this bond, then from the date of initial issue.
 
Any payment made in respect of the Borrowers’ obligations under the Credit Agreement with respect to the payment of principal of or interest on the Advances shall be deemed a payment in respect of the principal of or interest on (as applicable) the bonds of this series, but
 
 
Exhibit A-2

 
such payment shall not reduce the principal amount of the bonds of this series unless the aggregate amount of the Lenders’ Commitments is irrevocably reduced concurrently with such payment.  The obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the principal of and interest on the bonds of this series shall be fully satisfied and discharged to the extent that, at any time that any such payment shall be due, the Borrowers or either of them shall have paid fully the then due principal of and interest on, and fees with respect to, outstanding Advances.
 
In the event that all of the obligations of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement have been discharged, this bond shall be deemed to have been paid in full and shall be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation.
 
The bonds of this series are subject to redemption prior to maturity at the demand of the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.09 of Article II of the Supplemental Indenture at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.
 
The principal of this bond may be declared or may become due before the maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner and at the times set forth in the Indenture, upon the happening of an Event of Default as therein defined.
 
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or premium, or interest if any, on this bond, or any part hereof, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof, or of the indebtedness represented hereby, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement under the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation (either directly or through the Company or a predecessor or successor corporation), whether by virtue of any Constitutional provision, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability of incorporators, stockholders, officers and directors being released by the registered owner hereof by the acceptance of this bond and being likewise waived and released by the terms of the Indenture.

This bond is nontransferable except (i) to effect transfer to any successor to the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement, (ii) to any Person or Persons in connection with the exercise of the rights and remedies of the holder hereof consequent upon an Event of Default or (iii) as may be necessary to comply with a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction in connection with any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding of the Company.  But this bond is exchangeable by the registered holder hereof, in person or by attorney duly authorized, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, any such permitted transfer or exchange to be made in the manner and upon the conditions prescribed in the Indenture, upon the surrender and cancellation of this bond and the payment of any applicable taxes and fees required by law, and upon any such transfer or exchange a new registered bond or bonds of the same series and tenor, will be issued to the authorized transferee, or the registered holder, as the case may be. The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this bond is registered as the absolute owner for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal and interest due hereon and for all other purposes.
