In the case of the 1992 Series A and B Bonds, the first Interest Rate Period for each maturity shall commence on the Date of Issuance and shall be a Long-Term Interest Rate Period in respect of both the 1992 Series A and Series B Bonds, subject to adjustment to other Interest Rate Periods as herein provided. Upon the Date of Issuance of the Bonds, the initial Bond Interest Term or Bond Interest Terms pertaining to the Bonds and the initial Bond Interest Term Rate or Bond Interest Term Rates borne by the Bonds shall be determined by an officer of the Issuer, subject to the written approval of the Company and the Remarketing Agent.

(e) (i)    Determination of Weekly Interest Rate. During each Weekly Interest Rate Period, the Bonds of an applicable Series shall bear interest at the Weekly Interest Rate, which shall be determined by the Remarketing Agent on Tuesday of each week during such Weekly Interest Rate Period, or if such day shall not be a Business Day, then on the next succeeding Business Day. The first Weekly Interest Rate determined for each Weekly Interest Rate Period shall be determined on or prior to the first day of such Weekly Interest Rate Period and shall apply to the period commencing on the first day of such Weekly Interest Rate Period and ending on the next succeeding Tuesday. Thereafter, each Weekly Interest Rate shall apply to the period commencing on Wednesday and ending on the next succeeding Tuesday, unless such Weekly Interest Rate Period shall end on a day other than Tuesday, in which event the last Weekly Interest Rate for such Weekly Interest Rate Period shall apply to the period commencing on Wednesday preceding the last day of such Weekly Interest Rate Period and ending on the last day of such Weekly Interest Rate Period. The Weekly Interest Rate shall be the rate of interest per annum determined by the Remarketing Agent (based on the examination of tax-exempt obligations comparable in the judgment of the Remarketing Agent to the Bonds and known by the Remarketing Agent to have been priced or traded under then-prevailing market conditions) to be the minimum interest rate, which, if borne by the Bonds, would enable the Remarketing Agent to sell the Bonds on such date of determination at a price (without regarding accrued interest) equal to the principal amount thereof. In the event that the Remarketing Agent fails to establish a Weekly Interest Rate for any week, then the Weekly Interest Rate for such week shall be the same as the Weekly Interest Rate for the immediately preceding week that was determined by the Remarketing Agent. In the event that the Weekly Interest Rate for the immediately preceding week was not determined by the Remarketing Agent, or in the event that the Weekly Interest Rate determined by the Remarketing Agent shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of law, then the interest rate for such week shall be calculated by the Trustee and shall be equal to 75% of the rate on 3D-day High-Grade Unsecured Commercial Paper Notes sold through dealers by major corporations as reported in the Wall Street Journal on the day the Weekly Interest Rate would otherwise be determined as provided herein for such Weekly Interest Rate Period.

(ii)    Adjustment to Weekly Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.01(m), at any time, the Company, by written direction to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Registrar, the Tender Agent, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent, the Credit Bank and the Remarketing Agent, may elect, that a Series of Bonds shall bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate. Such direction of the Company shall specify (1) the Series of Bonds and maturities within such Series and the proposed effective date of such adjustment to a Weekly Interest Rate, which shall be (A) a Business Day not earlier than the 12th day (15th day if the then-current Interest Rate Period shall be a Long-Term Interest Rate Period) following the second Business Day after receipt by the Registrar of such direction, (B) in the case of an adjustment from a Long-Term Interest Rate Period, the day immediately following the last day of the then-current Long-Term Interest Rate Period or a day on which the Bonds would otherwise be subject to optional redemption pursuant to Section 3.01(b) or Section 3.01(c) if such adjustment did not occur, and (C) in the case of an adjustment from a Short-Term Interest Rate Period, the day immediately following the last day of the Short-Term Interest Rate Period; and (2) the date of delivery for such Bonds to be purchased. In addition, the direction of the Company shall be accompanied by a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel and by a form of notice to be mailed to the Owners of the subject Bonds by the Registrar as provided in Section 2.01(e)(iii). During each Weekly Interest Rate Period commencing on a date so specified and ending on the day immediately preceding the effective date of the next succeeding Interest Rate Period, the interest rate borne by the subject Bonds shall be a Weekly Interest Rate.

(iii)   Notice of Adjustment to Weekly Interest Rate. The Registrar shall give notice by first-class mail of an adjustment to a Weekly Interest Rate Period to the affected Owners of a Series of Bonds not less than 12 days (15 days if the then-current Interest Rate Period shall be a Long-Term Interest Rate Period) prior to the effective date of such Weekly Interest Rate Period. Such notice shall state (1) that the interest rate on such Bonds will be adjusted to a Weekly Interest Rate unless Bond Counsel fails to deliver to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Company and the Remarketing Agent a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel as to such adjustment on the effective date of such adjustment in the Interest Rate Period, or unless the Company rescinds its election to adjust the interest rate on the subject series of Bonds to a Weekly Interest Rate as provided in Section 2.01(1) hereof, (2) the proposed effective date of such Weekly Interest Rate Period, and (3) that the subject Bonds are subject to mandatory tender for purchase on such effective date, setting forth the applicable purchase price and the place of delivery for purchase of such Bonds.

-20-

 
(f) (i)    Determination of Long-Term Interest Rate. During each Long-Term Interest Rate Period, the applicable Series of Bonds shall bear interest at the Long-Term Interest Rate. The Long-Term Interest Rate for any such Series of Bonds shall be determined by the Remarketing Agent on a Business Day no later than the effective date of such Long-Term Interest Rate Period with respect to such Series of Bonds. Except in respect of the initial Long-Term Interest Rates applicable to the 1992 Series A and B Bonds, which shall be as provided in Section 2.01(b)(1) and 2.01(b)(2), the Long-Term Interest Rate for a Series of Bonds shall be the rate of interest per annum determined by the Remarketing Agent (based on the examination of tax-exempt obligations comparable in the judgment of the Remarketing Agent to the Bonds and known by the Remarketing Agent to have been priced or traded under then-prevailing market conditions) to be the minimum interest rate at which the Remarketing Agent will agree to purchase the Bonds of such Series on such effective date for resale at a price (without regarding accrued interest) equal to the principal amount thereof. If, for any reason, the Long-Term Interest Rate is not so determined for any Long-Term Interest Period by the Remarketing Agent on or prior to the first day of such Long-Term Interest Rate Period, then such Series of Bonds shall bear interest at the Weekly Interest Rate as provided in Section 2.01(e) hereof, and shall continue to bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate determined in accordance with Section 2.01(e) until such time as the interest rate on such Bonds shall have been adjusted to the Bond Interest Term Rates or a Long-Term Interest Rate as provided herein, as the case may be, and such Bonds shall be subject to mandatory purchase upon notice from the Owners thereof as described in Section 2.02(a) hereof.

(ii)    Adjustment to or Continuation of Long-Term Interest Rate.

(A)   Subject to Section 2.01(m), at any time, the Company, by written direction to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Registrar, the Tender Agent, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent, the Credit Bank and the Remarketing Agent, may elect that a Series of Bonds and its maturities shall bear, or continue to bear, interest at a Long-Term Interest Rate or Rates. In the event that the Company shall elect that a Series of Bonds shall bear interest at a Long-Term Interest Rate, the direction of the Company required by the first sentence of this paragraph (A), (1) shall specify the Series of Bonds and the duration of the Long-Term Interest Rate Period or periods during which such Bonds shall bear interest at such Long-Term Interest Rate or Rates, (2) shall specify the effective date of each such Long-Term Interest Rate Period, which date shall be (aa) a Business Day not earlier than the 30th day following the second Business Day after receipt by the Registrar of such direction, (bb) in the case of an adjustment from a Long-Term Interest Rate Period to another Long-Term Interest Rate Period, the day immediately following the last day of the then-current Long-Term Interest Rate Period with respect to such Bonds or a day on which such Bonds would otherwise be subject to optional redemption pursuant to Section 3.0l(b) or (c) if such adjustment did not occur and (cc) in the case of an adjustment from a Short-Term Interest Rate Period, the day immediately following the last day of the Short-Term Interest Rate Period with respect to such Bonds; (3) shall specify the last day of such Long-Term Interest Rate Period (which last day shall be either the day immediately prior to the maturity date of such Bonds, or a day which both immediately precedes a Business Day and is at least 271 days after the effective date thereof); (4) shall specify a date or dates on or prior to which Owners are required to deliver such Bonds to be purchased; and (5) with respect to any such Long-Term Interest Rate Period, may specify redemption prices greater, and redemption periods longer, than those set forth in Section 3.01(b) or (c), if approved by Bond Counsel as provided in Section 2.01(f)(ii)(B).

-21-

 
(B)   Such direction of the Company shall be accompanied by a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel and by a form of the notice to be mailed by the Registrar to the Owners of the Bonds of such Series as provided in Section 2.01(f)(iii). During the Long-Term Interest Rate Period commencing and ending on the dates so determined and during each successive Long-Term Interest Rate Period, if any, so determined, the interest rate borne by such Bonds shall be a Long-Term Interest Rate.

(C)   If, by the second Business Day preceding the 29th day prior to the last day of any Long-Term Interest Rate Period the Registrar shall not have received notice of the Company’s election that, during the next succeeding Interest Rate Period the Bonds shall bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate or a Long-Term Interest Rate, or at Bond Interest Term Rates, the next succeeding Interest Rate Period shall be a Weekly Interest Rate Period until such time as the interest rate on such Bonds shall be adjusted to a Long-Term Interest Rate or Bond Interest Term Rates as provided in this Section 2.01.

(D)   Upon any adjustment from any Interest Rate Period for a series of Bonds to a Long-Term Interest Rate Period, the Credit Facility or similar credit device, if any, then in effect shall automatically terminate and/or be delivered by the Trustee to the related Credit Bank for cancellation.

(E)    In the event that the Company shall deliver to the Registrar, the Remarketing Agent, the Tender Agent and the Trustee on or prior to the date that the interest rate for .any Long-Term Interest Rate Period is determined a notice to the effect that the Company elects to rescind its election to have the relevant Series of Bonds bear interest at a Long-Term Interest Rate, then the interest rate on such Bonds shall not be adjusted to a Long-Term Interest Rate, and such Bonds shall bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate or Bond Interest Term Rates for Bond Interest Terms as the case may be as in effect prior to such event, or if such Bonds were to be adjusted from a Long-Term Interest Rate, then such Bonds shall bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate for the period commencing on the date which would have been the effective date of such Long-Term Interest Rate Period, and the Bonds shall continue to be subject to mandatory purchase as provided in Section 2.02 on the date which would have been the effective date of such Long-Term Interest Rate Period.

(iii)   Notice of Adjustment to or Continuation of Long-Term Interest Rate. The Registrar for the applicable Series of Bonds shall give notice by first-class mail of an adjustment to a (or the establishment of another) Long-Term Interest Rate Period to the Owners of such Series of Bonds not less than 30 days prior to the effective date of such Long-Term Interest Rate Period. Such notice shall state: (I) the Series of Bonds and maturity or maturities thereof and that the interest rate on such Bonds shall be adjusted to, or continue to be, a Long-Term Interest Rate unless (x) Bond Counsel fails to deliver to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Company and the Remarketing Agent a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel as to such adjustment in the Interest Rate Period on the effective date of such adjustment, or (y) the Company shall elect, on or prior to 10:00 A.M. on the effective date of such adjustment to rescind its election to cause the adjustment of the interest rate on such Series of Bonds to a Long-Term Interest Rate as provided in Section 2.01(m); (2) the proposed effective date and the last day of such Long-Term Interest Rate Period; and (3) that such Series of Bonds are subject to mandatory tender for purchase on such effective date, the purchase price applicable thereto and the place of delivery for purchase of such Bonds.

-22-

 
(iv)   Adjustment from Long-Term Interest Rate Period. In addition to an adjustment from a Long-Term Interest Rate Period on the date immediately following the last day of the Long-Term Interest Rate Period for the Bonds of a Series, at any time during a Long-Term Interest Rate Period (subject to the provisions set forth in this paragraph (iv)), the Company may elect, by written direction to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent, the Credit Bank and the Remarketing Agent for Bonds of a Series, subject to Section 2.01(m), that such Bonds no longer shall bear interest at a Long-Term Interest Rate and shall instead bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate, Bond Interest Term Rates or a new Long-Term Interest Rate, as specified in such election. In the notice of such election, the Company shall also specify the effective date of the new Interest Rate Period for the Bonds of a Series, which date shall be (1) a Business Day no earlier than the 15th day after the second Business Day following the date of receipt by the Registrar of the notice of election from the Company or, in the case of adjustment to a new Long-Term Interest Rate Period, the 30th day after the second Business Day following the date of receipt by the Registrar of such notice, and (2) a day on which such Bonds will be subject to optional redemption in accordance with Section 3.01(b) or (c). Such Bonds of such Series shall be subject to mandatory tender for purchase on the effective date of the new Interest Rate Period thereof, in accordance with Section 2.02(c), at a purchase price equal to the optional redemption price set forth in Section 3.01(b) or (c) which would be applicable on that date.

(g) (i)   Determination of Bond Interest Terms and Bond Interest Term Rates.

-23-

 
(A)   During each Short-Term Interest Rate Period with respect to Bonds of a Series, each Bond of such Series shall bear interest during each Bond Interest Term for such Bond at the Bond Interest Term Rate for such Bond. The Bond Interest Term and the Bond Interest Term Rate for each Bond of such Series need not be the same for any two Bonds of such Series, even if determined on the same date. Each of such Bond Interest Terms and Bond Interest Term Rates for each Bond of such Series shall be determined by the Remarketing Agent for such Bonds no later than the first day of each Bond Interest Term. Except for any Bond of such Series purchased on behalf of the Company and remaining unsold by the Remarketing Agent at the close of business on the first day of the Bond Interest Term, each Bond Interest Term shall be for a period of days within the range or ranges announced as possible Bond Interest Terms no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first day of each Bond Interest Term by the Remarketing Agent for such Bonds. Each Bond Interest Term for each Bond of such Series shall be a period of not more than 270 days, determined by the Remarketing Agent for such Bonds to be the period which, together with all other Bond Interest Terms for all Bonds of such Series then Outstanding, will result in the lowest overall interest expense on the Bonds of such Series over the next succeeding 270 days. Any Bond of such Series purchased on behalf of the Company and remaining unsold by the Remarketing Agent as of the close of business on the first day of the Bond Interest Term for that Bond shall have a Bond Interest Term of one day or, if that Bond Interest Term would not end on a day immediately preceding a Business Day, a Bond Interest Term ending on the day immediately preceding the next Business Day. Each Bond Interest Term shall end on either a day which immediately precedes a Business Day or on the day immediately preceding the maturity date for the related Series of Bonds. If for any reason a Bond Interest Term for any Bond of such Series cannot be so determined by the Remarketing Agent, or if the determination of such Bond Interest Term is held by a court of law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such Bond Interest Term shall be 30 days, but if the last day so determined shall not be a day immediately preceding a Business Day, shall end on the first day immediately preceding the Business Day next succeeding such last day, or if such last day would be after the day immediately preceding the maturity date for Bonds of such Series, shall end on the day immediately preceding the maturity date. In determining the number of days in each Bond Interest Term, the Remarketing Agent shall take into account the following factors: (I) existing short-term tax-exempt market rates and indices of such short-term rates, (II) the existing market supply and demand for short-term tax-exempt securities, (III) existing yield curves for short-term and long-term tax-exempt securities for obligations of credit quality comparable to the Bonds of such Series, (IV) general economic conditions, (V) industry economic and financial conditions that may affect or be relevant to the Bonds of such Series, (VI) the Bond Interest Terms of other Bonds of such Series and (VII) such other facts, circumstances and conditions pertaining to financial markets as the Remarketing Agent, in its sole discretion, shall determine to be relevant.
 
(B)   The Bond Interest Term Rate for each Bond Interest Term for each Bond of a Series in a Short-Term Interest Rate Period shall be the rate of interest per annum determined by the Remarketing Agent (based on the examination of tax-exempt obligations comparable in the judgment of the Remarketing Agent to the Bonds of such Series and known by the Remarketing Agent to have been priced or traded under then-prevailing market conditions) to be the minimum interest rate which, if borne by such Bond, would enable the Remarketing Agent to sell such Bond on the date and at the time of such determination at a price (without regard to accrued interest) equal to the principal amount thereof. If for any reason a Bond Interest Term Rate for any Bond of a Series in a Short-Term Interest Rate Period is not so established by the Remarketing Agent for any Bond Interest Term, or such Bond Interest Term Rate is determined by a court of law to be invalid or unenforceable, then the Bond Interest Term Rate for such Bond Interest Term shall be the rate per annum equal to 70% of the interest rate on 30-day High-Grade Unsecured Commercial Paper Notes sold through dealers by major corporations as reported by the Wall Street Journal on the first day of such Bond Interest Term and which maturity most nearly equals the Bond Interest Term for which a Bond Interest Term Rate is being calculated.

-24-

 
(ii)    Adjustment to Bond Interest Term Rates. Subject to Section 2.01(m), at any time, the Company, by written direction to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Credit Bank, the Registrar, the Tender Agent, the Authenticating Agent, the Paying Agent and the Remarketing Agent for Bonds of a Series, may elect that such Bonds shall bear interest at Bond Interest Term Rates. Such direction of the Company shall specify (1) the effective date of the Short Term Interest Rate Period (during which such Bonds shall bear interest at Bond Interest Term Rates), which shall be (A) a Business Day not earlier than the 12th day (15th day if the then-current Interest Rate Period shall be a Long-Term Interest Rate Period) following the second Business Day after receipt by the Registrar of such direction, (B) in the case of an adjustment from a Long-Term Interest Rate Period, the day immediately following the last day of the then-current Long-Term Interest Rate Period or a day on which such Bonds would otherwise be subject to optional redemption pursuant to Section 3.0l(b) or (c) if such adjustment did not occur; provided that, if prior to the Company’s making such election any Bonds of such Series shall have been called for redemption and such redemption shall not have theretofore been effected, the effective date of such Short-Term Interest Rate Period shall not precede such redemption date, and (C) in the case of an adjustment from a Weekly Interest Rate Period, the day immediately following the last day of such Interest Rate Period with respect to such Bonds; (2) the date of delivery of such Bonds to be purchased. In addition, the direction of the Company shall be accompanied by a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel and a form of the notice to be mailed by the Registrar to the Owners of such Bonds as provided in Section 2.01(g)(iii). During each Short-Term Interest Rate Period for the Bonds of a Series commencing on the date so specified and ending, with respect to each such Bond on the day immediately preceding the effective date of the next succeeding Interest Rate Period with respect to such Bond, each such Bond shall bear interest at a Bond Interest Term Rate during each Bond Interest Term for such Bond.

(iii)   Notice of Adjustment to Bond Interest Term Rates. The Registrar for the Bonds of a Series shall give notice by first-class mail of an adjustment to a Short-Term Interest Rate Period to the Owners of the Bonds of such Series not less than 12 days (15 days if the then-current Interest Rate Period shall be a Long-Term Interest Rate Period) prior to the effective date of such Short-Term Interest Rate Period. Such notice shall state (I) the Series of Bonds and that the Bonds of such Series shall bear interest at Bond Interest Term Rates unless Bond Counsel fails to deliver to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Company and the Remarketing Agent a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel as to such adjustment on the effective date of such adjustment in the Interest Rate Period or unless the Company rescinds its election to adjust the interest rate on such Bonds to Bond Interest Term Rates as provided in Section 2.01(m), in which case such Bonds, if being adjusted from a Weekly Interest Rate Period, shall continue to bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate as in effect immediately prior to such proposed adjustment in the Interest Rate Period, or if such Bonds are being adjusted from a Long-Term Interest Rate Period, the Bonds shall be adjusted to bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate, (2) the proposed effective date of such Short-Term Interest Rate Period, and (3) that the Bonds of said Series are subject to mandatory tender for purchase on the proposed effective date, of such Short-Term Interest Rate Period, setting forth the applicable purchase price and the place of delivery for purchase of the Bonds.

-25-

 
(iv)   Adjustment from Short-Term Interest Rate Period. Subject to Section 2.01(m), at any time during a Short-Term Interest Rate Period with respect to the Bonds of a Series, the Company may elect, pursuant to Section 2.01(e)(ii) or 2.01(f)(ii), that such Bonds no longer shall bear interest at Bond Interest Term Rates and shall instead bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate or a Long-Term Interest Rate, as specified in such election.

The date on which all Bond Interest Terms determined shall end shall be the last day of the then-current Short-Term Interest Rate Period and the day next succeeding such date shall be the effective date of the Weekly Interest Rate Period or Long-Term Interest Rate Period elected by the Company.

(h)    The determination of the Weekly Interest Rate and Long-Term Interest Rate and each Bond Interest Term Rate by the Remarketing Agent shall be conclusive and binding upon the Remarketing Agent, the Trustee, the Registrar, the Tender Agent, the Authenticating Agent, the Issuer, the Company, the Paying Agent, the Credit Bank and the Owners of the affected Series of Bonds.

(i)     The face of the Bonds of any Series, the reverse of the Bonds of such Series, the certificate of authentication to be executed on all the Bonds of such Series by the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent and the forms for registration of transfer shall be in substantially the forms thereof set forth in Exhibit A hereto, with necessary or appropriate variations, omissions and insertions as permitted or required by this Indenture.

(j)    The Bonds shall be deliverable as fully registered Bonds without coupons in Authorized Denominations. The Bonds of each Series shall be numbered from R-l consecutively upwards in order of authentication and each Bond shall be dated its date of authentication.

(k)    Principal of and any premium on the Bonds shall be payable, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as, at the respective time of payment, shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, to the Owners of the Bonds upon presentation and surrender of such Bonds at the Principal Office of the Paying Agent. Interest on the Bonds shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date by the Paying Agent during any Weekly Interest Rate Period or Long-Term Interest Rate Period, by check mailed on the date on which due to the Owners of the Bonds at the close of business on the Record Date in respect of such Interest Payment Date at the registered addresses of Owners as shall appear on the registration books maintained pursuant to Section 2.08. In the case of (i) Bonds bearing interest at a Bond Interest Term Rate, or (ii) any Owner of Bonds bearing interest at other than a Bond Interest Term Rate in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $1,000,000 as shown on the registration books kept by the Registrar who, prior to the Record Date next preceding any Interest Payment Date, shall have provided the Paying Agent with wire transfer instructions, principal of and premium, if any and interest payable on such Bonds shall be paid in accordance with the wire transfer instructions provided by the Owner of such Bond (or by the Remarketing Agent on behalf of such Owner); provided, however, that during any Short-Term Interest Rate Period, interest on any Bond shall be payable only upon presentation of such Bond to the Tender Agent at its principal office for delivery of Bonds.

-26-

 
If and to the extent, however, that the Issuer fails to make payment or provision for payment of interest on any Bond on any Interest Payment Date, interest shall continue to accrue thereon but shall cease to be payable to the Owner of that Bond as of the applicable Record Date. When moneys become available for payment of the interest, (a) the Trustee shall, pursuant to Section 9.10, establish a Special Record Date for the payment of that interest which shall not be more than 15 nor fewer than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment, and (b) the Trustee shall give notice by first-class mail of the proposed payment and of the Special Record Date to each Owner not fewer than 10 days prior to the Special Record Date and, thereafter, the interest shall be payable to the Owners of the Bonds as of the Special Record Date. The form of such notice shall be provided to the Trustee by the Company.

(1)    In the event that the Company shall elect to convert the interest rate on a Series of Bonds to a Weekly Interest Rate, Bond Interest Term Rates or Long-Term Interest Rate as provided in Sections 2.0l(e)(ii), 2.0l(f)(ii) or 2.01(g)(ii), then the written direction furnished by the Company to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Credit Bank, the Registrar, the Tender Agent, the Authenticating Agent and the Remarketing Agent as required by such sections shall be made by registered or certified mail, or by telex or telecopy, confirmed by registered or certified mail. Any such direction of the Company shall specify whether the Bonds of such Series are to bear interest at the Weekly Interest Rate, Bond Interest Term Rates or the Long-Term Interest Rate and shall be accompanied by a copy of the notice required to be given by the Registrar pursuant to Section 2.01(e)(iii), 2.01(f)(iii), or 2.01(g)(iii), as the case may be.

(m)   Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.01, in connection with any adjustment of the Interest Rate Period on the Bonds of a Series, the Company (if such election is not rescinded by the Company as provided in the next succeeding sentence) shall cause a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel to be provided to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Company and the Remarketing Agent for such Bonds on the effective date of such adjustment. The Company shall have the right to deliver to the Trustee and the Registrar, Remarketing Agent, Tender Agent, Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent and Credit Bank for the Bonds of a Series on or prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the effective date of any such adjustment of an Interest Rate Period a notice to the effect that the Company elects to rescind its election to make such adjustment. In the event that Bond Counsel fails to deliver a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel on the effective date of such adjustment or the Company rescinds its election to make such adjustment as provided above, then the Interest Rate Period on the Bonds of such Series shall not be adjusted, and such Bonds shall continue to bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate or Bond Interest Term Rates, as the case may be, as in effect immediately prior to such proposed adjustment in the Interest Rate Period; provided, however, that in the event the Bonds of a Series are being adjusted from a Long-Term Interest Rate Period and Bond Counsel fails to deliver such Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel on the effective date of such adjustment as provided above or the Company elects to rescind its election to make such adjustment, then such Bonds shall nevertheless be adjusted to bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate as provided in Section 2.01(e)(ii) on the date which would have been the effective date of such Long-Term Interest Rate Period. In any event, if notice of such adjustment has been mailed to the Owners of the Bonds of such Series as provided in this Section 2.01 and Bond Counsel fails to deliver a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel on the effective date or the Company rescinds its election to make such adjustment as herein described, such Bonds shall continue to be subject to mandatory tender for purchase on the date which would have been the effective date of such adjustment as provided in Section 2.02. In addition to the other requirements of this Section 2.01, in order for the Company to adjust the Interest Rate Period for the Bonds of a Series to a Weekly Interest Rate Period or a Short-Term Interest Rate Period, the Company must appoint a Remarketing Agent and a Tender Agent for such Bonds (and such Remarketing Agent and Tender Agent must accept such appointment) in accordance with Article XIII and the Company must convert from a book-entry-only system if such system would not be practical, in the sole judgment of the Company, during any Weekly Interest Rate Period or Short-Term Interest Rate Period.

(e)    Notice of Mandatory Tender for Purchase.

In connection with any mandatory tender for purchase of a Series of Bonds in accordance with Sections 2.02(b}, 2.02(c) or 2.02(d), the Registrar for such Bonds shall give the notice provided herein as a part of the notice given pursuant to Sections 2.01(e)(iii), 2.01(f)(iii) and 2.0l(g)(iii} or 4.13. Such notice shall state (A) that the purchase price of any Bond so subject to mandatory tender for purchase shall be payable only upon surrender of such Bond to the Tender Agent for such Bond at its Principal Office for delivery of Bonds, accompanied by an instrument of transfer thereof, in form satisfactory to the Tender Agent, executed in blank by the Owner thereof or his duly-authorized attorney, with such signature guaranteed by a commercial bank, trust company or member firm of the New York Stock Exchange; (B) that all Bonds so subject to mandatory tender for purchase shall be purchased on the mandatory purchase date; and (C) that in the event that any Owner of a Bond so subject to mandatory tender for purchase shall not surrender such Bond to the Tender Agent for purchase on such mandatory purchase date, then such Bond shall be deemed to be an Undelivered Bond, and that no interest shall accrue thereon on and after such mandatory purchase date and that the Owner thereof shall have no rights under the Indenture other than to receive payment of the purchase price thereof.

(f)     Irrevocable Notice Deemed to be Tender of Bond: Undelivered Bonds.

(i)     The giving of notice by an Owner of a Bond as provided in Section 2.02(a), shall constitute the irrevocable tender for purchase of each such Bond with respect to which such notice shall have been given, regardless of whether such Bond is delivered to the Tender Agent for purchase on the relevant purchase date as provided in Section 2.02.

(ii)    The Tender Agent for the Bonds of a Series may refuse to accept delivery of any such Bonds for which a proper instrument of transfer has not been provided; such refusal, however, shall not affect the validity of the purchase of such Bond as herein described. If any Owner of a Bond who shall have given notice of tender of purchase pursuant to Section 2.02(a) or any Owner of a Bond subject to mandatory tender for purchase pursuant to Sections 2.02(b), 2.02(c) or 2.02(d) shall fail to deliver such Bond properly endorsed to the Tender Agent for such Bond at the place and on the applicable date and at the time specified, such Bond shall constitute an Undelivered Bond. If funds in the amount of the purchase price of the Undelivered Bond are available for payment to the Owner thereof on the date and at the time specified, from and after the date and time of that required delivery, (1) the Undelivered Bond shall be deemed to be purchased and shall no longer be deemed to be Outstanding under this Indenture; (2) interest shall no longer accrue thereon; and (3) funds in the amount of the purchase price of the Undelivered Bond shall be held by the Tender Agent for the benefit of the Owner thereof, to be paid on delivery (and proper endorsement) of the Undelivered Bond to the Tender Agent at its Principal Office for delivery of Bonds. Any funds held by the Tender Agent as described in clause (3) of the preceding sentence shall be held uninvested.

SECTION 2.03.     Execution of Bonds. The Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the reproduced facsimile signature of the Chairman of the Issuer and shall have affixed, impressed or reproduced thereon the reproduced facsimile of the corporate seal of the Issuer which shall be attested by the reproduced facsimile signature of the Secretary-Treasurer of the Issuer or, in the case of Bonds subject to the Book-Entry Only System, may be manually executed and sealed. Each of the foregoing officers of the Issuer may execute or attest or cause to be executed or attested the Bonds with a facsimile signature in lieu of his manual signature and any such facsimile signature shall have the same force and effect as if such officer had manually signed the Bonds.

In case any officer of the Issuer whose signature or a facsimile of whose signature shall appear on the Bonds shall cease to be such officer before the authentication and delivery of such Bonds, such signature or such facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if he had remained in office until delivery; and any Bond may be signed on behalf of the Issuer by such persons as, at the time of execution of such Bond, shall be the proper officers of the Issuer, even though at the date of such Bond or of the execution and delivery of this Indenture any such person was not such officer.

SECTION 2.04.     Authentication of Bonds. Only such Bonds as shall have endorsed thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form hereinafter set forth duly executed by the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent shall be entitled to any right or benefit under this Indenture. No Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless and until such certificate of authentication shall have been duly executed by the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, and such executed certificate of the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent upon any such Bonds shall be conclusive evidence that such Bond has been authenticated and delivered under this Indenture. The certificate of authentication on any Bond shall be deemed to have been executed by the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent if manually signed by an authorized officer or employee on behalf of the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, but it shall not be necessary that the same person sign the certificate of authentication on all of the Bonds issued hereunder. The Registrar or the Authenticating Agent that authenticates a Bond shall also insert thereon the date of such authentication and such Registrar or Authenticating Agent shall also complete any such Bond by inserting on the face thereof any information required to be inserted thereon regarding the type and length of Interest Rate Period, the interest rate, any date on which the Bonds are subject to mandatory tender for purchase and any Interest Payment Date.

SECTION 2.05.     Bonds Not General Obligations. The Bonds shall not constitute a debt, liability or obligation or pledge of the faith and credit of the Issuer, Kenton County, Kentucky, or the Commonwealth on any political subdivision thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory provision whatsoever, but shall be limited and special obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from the Trust Estate. The Bonds shall not be payable from or charged upon any funds other than the Trust Estate pledged to the payment thereof, nor shall the Issuer be subject to any pecuniary liability thereon. No holder or holders of the Bonds shall ever have the right to compel any exercise of the taxing power of the Issuer or any other unit of government to pay the Bonds or the interest thereon, nor to enforce payment thereof against any property of the Issuer; nor shall such Bonds constitute a charge, lien or encumbrance, legal or equitable, upon any property of the Issuer. The statutory mortgage lien provided for by KRS 103.250(1) is hereby waived by the Issuer and the Trustee and shall not be applicable to the Project Facilities or constitute security for the payment of the 1992 Series A or B Bonds.

SECTION 2.06.     Prerequisites to Authentication of Bonds.

(a)     a certified copy of the Bond Resolution of the Issuer authorizing the issuance of the Bonds and the execution, delivery and performance of this Indenture and the Agreement;

(b)    original executed counterparts of the Agreement, this Indenture and the Ground Lease;

(c)     the executed Letter of Credit, if such Series of Bonds is secured by the Letter of Credit;

(d)     an executed certificate of the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Issuer as to the reasonable expectations of the Issuer as of the Date of Issuance with respect to the amount and use of the proceeds of the Bonds of such Series;

(e)     a request and authorization to the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent on behalf of the Issuer to authenticate and deliver the Bonds of such Series to the purchaser or purchasers therein identified upon payment to the Trustee, but for the account of the Issuer, of sums to be specified in such request and authorization plus accrued interest on the Bonds, if any, to the Date of Issuance; and

-33-

 
(f)     a written statement on behalf of the Company, executed by an Authorized Company Representative (i) consenting to the issuance and delivery of the Bonds of such Series, and (ii) consenting to each and every provision of this Indenture; provided, however, that the execution and delivery of the Agreement on behalf of the Company by any such officer shall be deemed to be such written statement of consent.

SECTION 2.07.     Lost. Destroyed or Improperly Cancelled Bonds. If any Bond shall be lost (whether by reason of theft or otherwise), destroyed in whole or in part (whether by mutilation, damage or otherwise), or improperly cancelled, the Issuer may execute and the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent may authenticate a new Bond of like date and denomination and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding; provided that, (a) in the case of any Bond destroyed in part, such Bond shall first be surrendered to the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent and (b) in the case of any lost Bond or Bond destroyed in whole or in part, there shall be first furnished to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Registrar, the Authenticating Agent, the Paying Agent and the Company evidence of such loss or destruction, together with indemnity satisfactory to each of them. In the event any lost, destroyed or improperly cancelled Bond shall have matured or is about to mature, or has been called for redemption, instead of issuing a substitute Bond the Issuer may, in its discretion, pay the same without surrender thereof if there shall be first furnished to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent and the Company evidence of such loss, destruction or cancellation, together with indemnity, satisfactory to each of them. Upon the issuance of any substitute Bond, the Issuer, the Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent and the Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto. The Registrar and the Authenticating Agent may charge the Owner of any such Bond with their reasonable fees and expenses in connection with any transaction described in this Section.

Every substitute Bond issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section by virtue of the fact that any Bond is lost, destroyed or improperly cancelled shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Issuer and the Company, whether or not the lost, destroyed or improperly cancelled Bond shall be at any time enforceable, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Bonds duly issued hereunder. All Bonds shall be held and owned upon the’ express condition that, to the extent permitted by law, the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of lost, destroyed or improperly cancelled Bonds, notwithstanding any law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.

Upon the written request of Owners (or a designated representative thereof) of 25% or more in principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, the Registrar, upon being satisfactorily’ indemnified with respect to expenses, will mail to the Owners of all Bonds then Outstanding any notice provided to the Trustee by such Owners.

Upon the registration or transfer of any Bond or Bonds, the Issuer shall issue in the name of the transferee, in an Authorized Denomination, and the Registrar or Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, a new Bond or Bonds of the same series and in the same aggregate principal amount as the surrendered Bond or Bonds.

The Issuer, the Company, the Trustee, the Registrar, the Tender Agent, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent and the Remarketing Agent may deem and treat the Owner of any Bond as the absolute owner of such Bond, whether such Bond shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal of and interest and any premium on, or the purchase price of, such Bond and for all other purposes, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, the Registrar, the Tender Agent, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent nor the Remarketing Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

To exercise any such option with respect to all or a portion of the 1992 Series A and B Bonds, the Company shall give written notice to the Trustee, which notice shall specify the Project Facilities affected by the above specified events and the principal amount of Bonds of such Series to be redeemed, including the maturity or maturities of the 1992 Series A and B Bonds to be redeemed.

In selecting Bonds of a Series or of a maturity for redemption, the Registrar shall treat each Bond of such Series or maturity as representing that number of Bonds of such Series or maturity which is obtained by dividing the principal amount of such Bond by the then-minimum Authorized Denomination.

New Bonds of such Series or maturity representing the unredeemed balance of the principal amount of such Bond shall be issued to the Owner thereof, without charge therefor. If the Owner of any such Bond shall fail to present such Bond to the Paying Agent for payment and exchange as aforesaid, such Bond nevertheless shall become due and payable on the date fixed for redemption to the extent of the unit or units of principal amount called for redemption (and to that extent only) and interest thereon shall cease to accrue.

Any notice of redemption given in accordance with this Article III, unless moneys (Available Moneys in the case of any Bonds secured by a Credit Facility) shall be received by the Trustee prior to giving such notice sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and accrued interest, if any, on the Bonds to be redeemed, shall state that such redemption shall be conditional upon the receipt of such moneys (Available Moneys in the case of any Bonds secured by a Credit Facility) by the Trustee by 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the date fixed for redemption. If such moneys (Available Moneys in the case of any Bonds secured by a Credit Facility) shall not have been so received such notice shall be of no force and effect, the Issuer shall not redeem such Bonds and the Registrar shall give notice, in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such moneys (Available Moneys in the case of any Bonds secured by a Credit Facility) were not so received and such redemption did not take place. In such event, the Registrar and Trustee shall promptly return the Bonds which it has received to the holders thereof as shown on registration books of the Issuer.

Such notice may set forth any additional information relating to such redemption. Any notice required to be given by the Registrar for the Bonds of a Series pursuant to this Section shall be provided to the Registrar by the Company. Such notice shall be given by first-class mail (except that if an Owner owns $1,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of such Bonds such notice shall be given by certified mail, return receipt requested) at least 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the Owners of Bonds of such Series to be redeemed at the address for each such Owner of Bonds as shown in the registration books kept by such Registrar; provided, however, the failure to duly give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of any proceedings for the redemption of Bonds of such series with respect to which no such failure or defect occurred. In addition, notice of redemption shall be sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, contemporaneously with such mailing to Securities Depositories that are Owners of Bonds to be redeemed (provided, that if any such Securities Depository is also an Owner of $1,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of such Bonds then only one such notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, need be given) and to two or more Information Services. A second notice of redemption shall be given by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, mailed not less than sixty (60) days nor more than ninety (90) days after the redemption date to any Owner of Bonds to be redeemed that has not surrendered the Bonds called for redemption, at his address shown on the registration books of the Issuer maintained by such Registrar. Records of the Registrar showing that such notice was mailed as required by this Section shall be conclusive evidence of the giving of such notice. Upon presentation and surrender of Bonds of a Series so called for redemption at the place or places of payment, such Bonds shall be redeemed.

Moneys so held by the Paying Agent which are received pursuant to draws on any Credit Facility shall be held by the Paying Agent in a separate account or sub-account separate and apart from moneys received from other sources.

Any moneys which the Paying Agent shall segregate and hold in trust for the payment of the principal of or interest or any premium on any Bond and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, interest or any premium shall have become due and payable shall be paid to the Trustee upon its request. The Trustee will apply such moneys first to the Credit Bank, to the extent that there have been draws under the Credit Facility for which the Credit Bank has not been reimbursed, and then to the Company. In connection with any such payment to the Credit Bank, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively on a certificate of an officer of the Credit Bank in determining the extent to which the Credit Bank has not been reimbursed for such draws. After the payment of such unclaimed moneys to the Company or to the Credit Bank, the Owner of such Bond shall look only to the Company for the payment thereof.

SECTION 4.07.    Moneys Held in Trust. All moneys required to be deposited with or paid to the Trustee for deposit into the Bond Fund and the Construction Fund under any provision hereof and all moneys withdrawn from the Bond Fund and the Construction Fund and held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall be held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, in trust.

[Form of Reverse of Bond]

This Bond is one of a series of Bonds issued in the aggregate principal amount of $                               (the “1992 Series A Bonds”) for the purpose of (i) paying a portion of the estimated cost of the acquisition and construction of certain airport facilities (the “Project Facilities”) at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (the “Airport”), (ii) paying interest on the 1992 Series A Bonds during construction, and (iii) paying certain costs of issuance of the 1992 Series A Bonds. The 1992 Series A Bonds are issued under and pursuant to a Trust Indenture, dated as of February 1, 1992 (the “Indenture”), between the Issuer and Star Bank, N.A., Cincinnati, Ohio, as Trustee. Simultaneously with the issuance of the 1992 Series A Bonds, the Issuer and Delta Air Lines, Inc. (the “Company”) have entered into a Lease Agreement, dated as of February 1, 1992 (the “Agreement”), under which the Issuer has agreed to issue the 1992 Series A Bonds and the Company has agreed to make certain rental payments to the Issuer sufficient to pay the principal of, redemption premium (if any) and interest on the 1992 Series A Bonds (and on all other Bonds, as hereinafter defined, issued under the Indenture) as the same become due and payable and to pay the purchase price, if any, of the 1992 Series A Bonds (and on all other Bonds issued under the Indenture) required to be purchased under the terms of the Indenture.

The 1992 Series A Bonds (and all other Bonds issued under the Indenture, including the Kenton County Airport Board Special Facilities Revenue Bonds, 1992 Series B (Delta Air Lines, Inc. Project) (the “1992 Series B Bonds”) issued concurrently with the 1992 Series A Bonds) are equally and ratably secured by a pledge under the Indenture of the Trust Estate, which includes the Receipts and Revenues and any moneys realized by the Trustee under a Credit Facility, if any, as hereinafter described and all other moneys received by, or on behalf of, the Trustee, including, without limitation, moneys in the Bond Fund created under and held by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture and all income and profit from the investment of such moneys, but does not include any moneys or investments held in any Rebate Fund created under the Indenture or in any Bond Purchase Fund created pursuant to the Indenture. The Issuer has assigned to the Trustee as security for the Bonds, its rights, title and interest in and to the Agreement (other than certain rights to indemnification and to payment of certain administrative expenses and certain other rights). The Indenture contains terms and conditions upon which additional bonds may be issued thereunder (such additional bonds, together with the 1992 Series A Bonds and the 1992 Series B Bonds, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Bonds”). Such additional Bonds may be issued by the Issuer to finance Project Facilities located at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport or to refund all or any part of the Bonds of any series or of bonds previously issued by the Issuer for the benefit of the Company.

This Bond shall not, as of the Date of Issuance hereof, be secured by a Credit Facility. From and after such Date of Issuance, the 1992 Series A Bonds may be secured from time to time by moneys drawn by the Trustee under any Credit Facility which may be in effect from time to time with respect to the 1992 Series A Bonds.

The term of the 1992 Series A Bonds will be divided into consecutive Interest Rate Periods during each of which the 1992 Series A Bonds shall bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate (a “Weekly Interest Rate Period”), a Long-Term Interest Rate (a “Long-Term Interest Rate Period”), or a Bond Interest Term Rate for one or more consecutive Bond Interest Terms (a “Short-Term Interest Rate Period”). The initial Interest Rate Period shall be a Long-Term Interest Rate Period from February 27, 1992 until the Maturity Dates of the 1992 Series A Bonds (subject to adjustment as hereinafter described) and during such period the 1992 Series A Bonds shall bear interest at the rate set forth on the first page hereof. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the interest rate on the 1992 Series A Bonds may be adjusted from the initial Long-Term Interest Rate Period to a Weekly Interest Rate or Bond Interest Term Rates at any time when the 1992 Series A Bonds may be redeemed at the option of the Company in accordance with the redemption provisions described herein, and thereafter again adjusted as described in the Indenture. As hereinafter described, the 1992 Series A Bonds are subject to mandatory purchase on the first day of any Interest Rate Period, as hereinafter described.

This Bond shall bear interest from and including the Interest Accrual Date (hereinafter defined) immediately preceding the date of authentication hereof, or, if such date of authentication is an Interest Accrual Date to which interest on this Bond has been paid or duly provided for, or the date of initial authentication hereof, then from the date of authentication hereof; provided, however, if interest on the Bonds shall be in default, Bonds issued in exchange for Bonds surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall bear interest from the date to which interest has been paid in full on the Bonds or if no interest has been paid on the Bonds, from February I, 1992.

During any Weekly Interest Rate Period, interest on the Bonds shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date for the period commencing on the immediately preceding Interest Accrual Date (or, if any Interest Payment Date is not a Wednesday, commencing on the second preceding Interest Accrual Date) and ending on the Tuesday immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date (or, if sooner, the last day of the Weekly Interest Rate Period). During any Short-Term Interest Rate Period or Long-Term Interest Rate Period, interest on this Bond shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date for the period commencing on the immediately preceding Interest Accrual Date and ending on the day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. In any event, interest on this Bond shall be payable for the final Interest Rate Period to the date on which this Bond shall have been paid in full. Interest shall be computed, in the case of a Long-Term Interest Rate Period, on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, and in the case of any other Interest Rate Period, on the basis of a 365 or 366-day year, as appropriate, and the actual number of days elapsed. The Bonds may be issued in the form of fully registered Bonds in the denominations of (i) $5,000 and any integral multiple thereof during any Long-Term Interest Rate Period, and (ii) $100,000 and any integral multiple of $5,000 in excess of $100,000 during any Weekly Interest Rate Period or Short-Term Interest Rate Period (the “Authorized Denominations”).

The term “Interest Accrual Date” means (i) with respect to any Weekly Interest Rate Period, the first day thereof and, thereafter, the first Wednesday of each calendar month during that Weekly Interest Rate Period, (ii) with respect to any Long-Term Interest Rate Period, the first day thereof and, thereafter, each Interest Payment Date in respect thereof, other than the last such Interest Payment Date, and (iii) with respect to each Bond Interest Term within a Short-Term Interest Rate Period, the first day thereof. The term -Interest Payment Date- means (1) with respect to any Weekly Interest Rate Period, the first Wednesday of each calendar month, or, if such first Wednesday shall not be a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, (2) with respect to any Long-Term Interest Rate Period, the first day of a month and the first day of each sixth month thereafter, as determined by the Company, or if any of such days shall not be a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, the first Interest Payment Date during a Long-Term Interest Rate Period being the first day of such month which is at least 90 days from the first day of such Long-Term Interest Rate Period, (3) with respect to any Bond Interest Term, the day next succeeding the last day thereof, and (4) with respect to each Interest Rate Period, the day next succeeding the last day thereof. The term “Business Day”. means any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or any other day on which banks located in the cities in which the principal offices of the Trustee, the Tender Agent, the Paying Agent, the Registrar, the Remarketing Agent, the Company, the Authenticating Agent and the issuer of any Credit Facility are located are authorized or required to remain closed.

The interest rate on the 1992 Series A Bonds shall be determined as follows:

(1) Weekly Interest Rate. During each Weekly Interest Rate Period, this Bond shall bear interest at the Weekly Interest Rate, which shall be determined by the Remarketing Agent on Tuesday of each week during such Weekly Interest Rate Period, or if such day shall not be a Business Day, then on the next succeeding Business Day. The first Weekly Interest Rate determined for each, Weekly Interest Rate Period shall be determined on or prior to the first day of such Weekly Interest Rate Period and shall apply to the period commencing on the first day of such Weekly Interest Rate Period and ending on the next succeeding Tuesday. Thereafter, each Weekly Interest Rate shall apply to the period commencing on Wednesday and ending on the next succeeding Tuesday, unless such Weekly Interest Rate Period shall end on a day other than Tuesday, in which event the last Weekly Interest Rate for such Weekly Interest Rate Period shall. apply to the period commencing on Wednesday preceding the last day of such Weekly Interest Rate Period and ending on the last day of such Weekly Interest Rate Period. The Weekly Interest Rate shall be the rate of interest per annum determined by the Remarketing Agent (based on the examination of tax-exempt obligations comparable ‘in the judgment of the Remarketing Agent to the 1992 Series A Bonds and known by the Remarketing Agent to have been priced or traded under then-prevailing market conditions) to be the minimum interest rate which, if borne by the 1992 Series A Bonds, would enable the Remarketing Agent to sell the 1992 Series A Bonds on such date of determination at a price (without regarding accrued interest) equal to the principal amount thereof. In the event that the Remarketing Agent fails to establish a Weekly Interest Rate for any week, then the Weekly Interest Rate for such week shall be the same as the Weekly Interest Rate for the immediately preceding week that was determined by the Remarketing Agent. In the event that the Weekly Interest Rate for the immediately preceding week was not determined by the Remarketing Agent, or in the event that the Weekly Interest Rate determined by the Remarketing Agent shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of law, then the interest rate for such week shall be calculated by the Trustee and shall be equal to 75% of the rate on 30-day High-Grade unsecured commercial paper notes sold through dealers by major corporations as reported in the Wall Street Journal on the day the Weekly Interest Rate would otherwise be determined as provided in the Indenture for such Weekly Interest Rate Period.
 
-5-

 
(2) Long-Term Interest Rate. During each Long-Term Interest Rate Period, the 1992 Series A Bonds shall bear interest at the Long-Term Interest Rate. The Long-Term Interest Rate for the 1992 Series A Bonds shall be determined by the Remarketing Agent on a Business Day no later than the effective date of such Long-Term Interest Rate Period with respect to the 1992 Series A Bonds. The Long-Term Interest Rate (except for the initial Long-Term Interest Rate determined for this Bond) shall be the rate of interest per annum determined by the Remarketing Agent (based on the examination of tax-exempt obligations comparable in the judgment of the Remarketing Agent to the 1992 Series A Bonds and known by the Remarketing Agent to have been priced or traded under then-prevailing market conditions) to be the minimum interest rate at which the Remarketing Agent will agree to purchase the 1992 Series A Bonds on such effective date for resale at a price (without regarding accrued interest) equal to the principal amount thereof.

(3) Bond Interest Terms and Bond Interest Term Rates. During each Short-Term Interest Rate Period, this 1992 Series A Bond shall bear interest during each Bond Interest Term for this 1992 Series A Bond at the Bond Interest Term Rate for this 1992 Series A Bond. The Bond Interest Term and Bond Interest Term Rate for this 1992 Series A Bond shall be determined by the Remarketing Agent no later than the first day of each Bond Interest Term. The Bond Interest Term and the Bond Interest Term Rate need not be the same for any two 1992 Series A Bonds, even if determined on the same date. The Bond Interest Term for this 1992 Series A Bond shall be a period of not more than 270 days, determined by the Remarketing Agent to be the period which, together with all other Bond Interest Terms for all 1992 Series A Bonds then outstanding under the Indenture, will result in the lowest overall interest expense on such 1992 Series A Bonds over the next succeeding 270 days, taking into account certain factors set forth in the Indenture. Any 1992 Series A Bond purchased on behalf of the Company and remaining unsold by the Remarketing Agent as of the close of business on the first day of the Bond Interest Term for that 1992 Series A Bond shall have a Bond Interest Term of one day or, if that Bond Interest Term does not end on a day immediately preceding a Business Day, a Bond Interest Term ending on the day immediately preceding the next Business Day. If for any reason a Bond Interest Term for any 1992 Series A Bond cannot be so determined by the Remarketing Agent, or if the determination of such Bond Interest Term is held by a court of law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such Bond Interest Term shall be thirty days, but if the last day so determined shall not. be a day immediately preceding a Business Day, shall end on the first day immediately preceding the Business Day next succeeding such last day, or if such last day would be after the day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, shall end on the day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.

-6-

 
The Registrar shall give notice by first class mail of any adjustment in the Interest Rate Period not less than twelve days prior to the effective date of such Interest Rate Period, or, in the case of an adjustment from a Long-Term Interest Rate Period, not less than thirty days prior to the effective date of such Long Term Interest Rate Period. In the event of an adjustment in the Interest Rate Period applicable to the 1992 Series A Bonds, the 1992 Series A Bonds shall be subject to mandatory tender for purchase as hereinafter described.

The Company shall have the right to deliver to the Trustee, Registrar, Remarketing Agent, Tender Agent, Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent and Credit Bank on or prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the effective date of any such adjustment of an Interest Rate Period a notice to the effect that the Company elects to rescind its election to make such adjustment. In connection with any adjustment of the Interest Rate Period on the Bonds, the Company (if such election is not rescinded as provided in the prior sentence) is obligated to cause to be provided to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Company and the Remarketing Agent a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel on the effective date of such adjustment. In addition, certain other conditions precedent exist to the conversion to a Long-Term Interest Rate Period as described in the Indenture. In the event that Bond Counsel fails to deliver a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel on the effective date of any adjustment in the Interest Rate Period, the Company rescinds its election to make such adjustment or the other conditions to adjustment of any Interest Rate Period as provided in the Indenture are not met, then the 1992 Series A Bonds shall continue to bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate or Bond Interest Term Rates, as the case may be, as in effect immediately prior to such proposed adjustment in the Interest Rate Period, or, in the event that the 1992 Series A Bonds are being adjusted from a Long-Term Interest Rate Period, then the 1992 Series A Bonds shall be adjusted to bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate on the date which would have been the effective date of such change in the Interest Rate; provided, however, that if notice of such adjustment has been mailed to the Owners of the 1992 Series A Bonds then the 1992 Series A Bonds shall continue to be subject to mandatory tender for purchase on the date that would have been the effective date of such adjustment as provided below.

Thereafter, each Weekly Interest Rate shall apply to the period commencing on Wednesday and ending on the next succeeding Tuesday, unless such Weekly Interest Rate Period shall end on a day other than Tuesday, in which event the last Weekly Interest Rate for such Weekly Interest Rate Period shall apply to the period commencing on Wednesday preceding the last day of such Weekly Interest Rate Period and ending on the last day of such Weekly Interest Rate Period. The Weekly Interest Rate shall be the rate of interest per annum determined by the Remarketing Agent (based on the examination of tax-exempt obligations comparable in the judgment of the Remarketing Agent to the 1992 Series B Bonds and known by the Remarketing Agent to have been priced or traded under then-prevailing market conditions) to be the minimum interest rate which, if borne by the 1992 Series B Bonds, would enable the Remarketing Agent to sell the 1992 series B Bonds on such date of determination at a price (without regarding accrued interest) equal to the principal amount thereof. In the event that the Remarketing Agent fails to establish a Weekly Interest Rate for any week, then the Weekly Interest Rate for such week shall be the same as the Weekly Interest Rate for the immediately preceding week that was determined by “the Remarketing Agent. In the event that the Weekly Interest Rate for the immediately preceding week was not determined by the Remarketing Agent, or in the event that the Weekly Interest Rate determined by the Remarketing Agent shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of law, then the interest rate for such week shall be calculated by the Trustee and shall be equal to 75% of the rate on 30-day High-Grade unsecured commercial paper notes sold through dealers by major corporations as reported in the Wall Street Journal on the day the Weekly Interest Rate would otherwise be determined as provided in the Indenture for such Weekly Interest Rate Period.

If for any reason a Bond Interest Term for any 1992 Series B Bond cannot be so determined by the Remarketing Agent, or if the determination of such Bond Interest Term is held by a court of law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such Bond Interest Term shall be thirty days, but if the last day so determined shall not be 8 day immediately preceding a Business Day, shall end on the first day immediately preceding the Business Day next succeeding such last day, or if such last day would be after the day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, shall end on the day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.

In addition, certain other conditions precedent exist to the conversion to a Long-Term Interest Rate Period as described in the Indenture. In the event that Bond Counsel fails to deliver a Favorable Opinion of Bond Counsel on the effective date of any adjustment in the Interest Rate Period, the Company rescinds its election to make such adjustment or the other conditions to adjustment of any Interest Rate Period as provided in the Indenture are not met, then the 1992 Series B Bonds shall continue to bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate or Bond Interest Term Rates, as the case may be, as in effect immediately prior to such proposed adjustment in the Interest Rate Period, or, in the event that the 1992 Series B Bonds are being adjusted from a Long-Term Interest Rate Period, then the 1992 Series B Bonds shall be adjusted to bear interest at a Weekly Interest Rate on the date which would have been the effective date of such change in the Interest Rate; provided, however, that if notice of such adjustment has been mailed to the Owners of the 1992 Series B Bonds then the 1992 Series B Bonds shall continue to be subject to mandatory tender for purchase on the date that would have been the effective date of such adjustment as provided below.
