[General Form of Registered Bond of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series]
Notwithstanding any provisions hereof or in the Indenture this Bond is not assignable or transferable except to a successor Agent appointed in accordance with the Credit Agreement hereinafter referred to.
CENTRAL ILLINOIS LIGHT COMPANY
First Mortgage Bond, 2009 Credit Agreement Series
Illinois Commerce Commission
Identification No.: Ill. C.C. [ ]
Central Illinois Light Company, a corporation of the State of Illinois (hereinafter called the “Company”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as agent (in such capacity, the “Agent”) for the Lenders (as defined below) under the 2009 Credit Agreement by and among Ameren Corporation, the Company, Central Illinois Public Service Company and Illinois Power Company, as borrowers, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”) and the Agent (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), or registered assigns, the principal amount specified above or such lesser principal amount as shall be equal to the amount of the Borrower Credit Exposure (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Company outstanding on the Commitment Termination Date (having at any time the meaning such term has at such time under the Credit Agreement) of the Company, but not in excess of the principal amount of this bond, and to pay interest thereon at the Interest Rate (as defined below) until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment on the Commitment Termination Date or in the event of redemption of this bond, until the redemption date.
Interest on this bond shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date (as defined below), commencing on the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the date of this bond. If the Commitment Termination Date falls on a day which is not a Business Day (as defined below), principal and any interest and/or fees payable with respect to the Commitment Termination Date will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day. The interest payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions provided in the Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 15, 2009, hereinafter referred to, be paid to the person in whose name this bond (or one or more predecessor bonds) is registered at the close of business on the Record Date (as defined below); provided, however, that interest payable on the Commitment Termination Date will be payable to the person to whom the principal hereof shall be payable. Should the Company default in the payment of interest (“Defaulted Interest”), the Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the person in whose name this bond is registered on the
-3-
Record Date to be established by the Trustee for payment of such Defaulted Interest. As used herein, (1) “Business Day” shall have the meaning assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement; (2) “Interest Payment Date” shall mean each date on which Company Obligations constituting interest and/or fees are due and payable from time to time pursuant to the Credit Agreement; (3) “Interest Rate” shall mean a rate of interest per annum, adjusted as necessary, to result in an interest payment equal to the aggregate amount of Company Obligations constituting interest and fees of the Company due under the Credit Agreement on the applicable Interest Payment Date; and (4) “Record Date” with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall mean the day (whether or not a Business Day) immediately next preceding such Interest Payment Date.
Both the principal of and the interest on this bond shall be payable, in immediately available funds, at the office of the Trustee hereinafter referred to.
This bond is to be issued and delivered to the Agent in order to evidence and secure the obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement to make payments to the Lenders under the Credit Agreement and to provide the Lenders the benefit of the lien of the Indenture with respect to the 2009 Credit Agreement Series Bonds.
The obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to principal under the Credit Agreement shall not give rise to an obligation to pay principal of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series Bonds except on the Commitment Termination Date of the Company or upon redemption hereof. If at any time any permanent reduction of the Borrower Sublimit (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Company or the Borrower Credit Exposure (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Company shall result in the principal of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series Bonds being greater than the greater of the Borrower Sublimit and the Borrower Credit Exposure, a payment obligation with respect to the principal of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series Bonds in the amount of such excess shall be deemed discharged upon the effectiveness of such permanent reduction. No payment of principal under the Credit Agreement shall reduce the principal amount of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series Bonds to an amount less than the greater of the Borrower Sublimit and the Borrower Credit Exposure.
The obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the interest on this bond shall be fully or partially, as the case may be, satisfied and discharged to the extent that, at the time that any such payment shall be due, the then due interest and/or fees of the Company under the Credit Agreement shall have been fully or partially paid. Satisfaction of any obligation to the extent that payment is made with respect to the interest and/or fees of the Company under the Credit Agreement means that if any payment is made on the interest and/or fees of the Company under the Credit Agreement, a corresponding payment obligation with respect to the interest on this bond shall be deemed discharged in the same amount as such payment made on the interest and/or fees of the Company under the Credit Agreement.
The Trustee may at any time and all times conclusively assume that the obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the principal of and interest on this bond, so far as such payments at the time have become due, has been fully satisfied and discharged pursuant to the foregoing paragraphs unless and until the Trustee shall have received a written notice from the Agent stating (1) that timely payment of principal of or interest on this bond has not been made, (2) that the Company is in arrears as to the payments required to be made by it to the Agent in connection with the Company Obligations pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and (3) the amount of the arrearage.
-4-
This bond is one of an issue of bonds of the Company, issuable in series, and is one of a series known as its First Mortgage Bonds of the series designated in its title, all issued and to be issued under and equally secured (except as to any sinking fund established in accordance with the provisions of the Mortgage (defined below) for the bonds of any particular series) by an Indenture of Mortgage and Deed of Trust dated as of April 1, 1933, executed by Illinois Power Company to Bankers Trust Company (predecessor of Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas) or its successor (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Trustee”) as Trustee, as amended by Indenture dated as of June 30, 1933, as assumed by the Company and as amended and supplemented by Indentures between the Company and the Trustee bearing subsequent dates, including the Indenture dated as of June 15, 2009 (all of which indentures are herein collectively called the “Mortgage”), to which reference is made for a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the rights of the holders of the bonds in respect thereof and the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are secured.
As more fully described in the Indenture, the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the bondholders may be modified with the consent of the holders of not less than 60% in principal amount of the bonds adversely affected;provided, however, that no modification shall (1) extend the time, or reduce the amount, of any payment on any bond, without the consent of the holder of each bond so affected, (2) permit the creation of any lien, not otherwise permitted, prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Mortgage, without the consent of the holders of all bonds then outstanding, or (3) reduce the above percentage of the principal amount of bonds the holders of which are required to approve any such modification without the consent of the holders of all bonds then outstanding.
The principal hereof may be declared or may become due on the conditions, with the effect, in the manner and at the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a completed default as in the Mortgage provided.
This bond is not redeemable except upon written demand of the Agent following the occurrence of a Default by the Company under the Credit Agreement and the acceleration of the Company Obligations under the Credit Agreement.
In the manner and upon payment of the charges prescribed in the Mortgage, registered bonds without coupons of this series may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of fully registered bonds of other authorized denominations of the same series, upon presentation and surrender thereof, for cancellation, to the Trustee at its principal office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York.
This bond shall not be assignable or transferable except to a successor Agent appointed in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Subject to the restriction on transfer of this bond hereinbefore set forth, this bond is transferable as prescribed in the Mortgage by the registered owner hereof in person, or by his duly authorized attorney, at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, upon surrender and cancellation of this bond, and, thereupon, a new fully registered bond of the same series for a like
-5-
principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor as provided in the Mortgage, and upon payment, if the Company shall require it, of the charges therein prescribed; provided, that the Company shall not be required to exchange any bonds of this series for a period of ten (10) days next preceding an Interest Payment Date with respect to such bonds.
The Agent shall surrender this bond to the Trustee when each of the Borrower Sublimit and the Borrower Credit Exposure of the Company have been reduced to zero and all fees and other amounts payable by the Company pursuant to the Credit Agreement with respect to the Company Obligations shall have been duly paid.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or interest on this bond against any incorporator or any past, present or future subscriber to the capital stock, stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any predecessor or successor corporation, under any rule of law, statute or constitution or by the enforcement of any assessment or otherwise, all such liability of incorporators, subscribers, stockholders, officers and directors being released by the holder or owner hereof by the acceptance of this bond and being likewise waived and released by the terms of the Mortgage.
This bond shall not become obligatory until Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, the Trustee under the Mortgage, or its successor thereunder, shall have signed the form of certificate endorsed hereon.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Central Illinois Light Company has caused this bond to be signed in its name by its President or a Vice President by a facsimile of his signature and a facsimile of its corporate seal to be printed hereon, attested by its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary by a facsimile of his signature.

Each bond of 2009 Credit Agreement Series shall be dated as of the Interest Payment Date (as defined below) thereof to which interest was paid next preceding the date of issue, unless (a) issued on an Interest Payment Date thereof to which interest was paid, in which event it shall be dated as of such issue date, or (b) issued prior to the occurrence of the first Interest Payment Date thereof to which interest was paid, in which event it shall be dated the date of original issuance.
Definitive bonds of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series will be issued, originally or otherwise, only as registered bonds without coupons in the name of the Agent as evidence of and security for the Company Obligations under the Credit Agreement; and they and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the forms hereinbefore recited, respectively.
-8-
The bonds of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series shall not be assignable or transferable except to a successor Agent appointed in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Subject to the restriction on transfer of the bonds of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series hereinbefore set forth, and in the manner and upon payment of the charges prescribed in the Indenture, registered bonds without coupons of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of fully registered bonds of other authorized denominations of the same series, upon presentation and surrender thereof for cancellation, to the Trustee at its principal office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York;provided, that the Company shall not be required to exchange any bonds of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series for a period of ten (10) days next preceding an Interest Payment Date with respect to such bonds. However, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14 of the Indenture, no charge shall be made upon any transfer or exchange of bonds of said series other than for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge required to be paid by the Company.
Except as set forth herein, the bonds of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series are not redeemable. Upon the occurrence of a Default by the Company under the Credit Agreement and the acceleration of the Company Obligations, the bonds of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series shall be redeemable in whole upon receipt by the Trustee of a written demand from the Agent stating that there has occurred under the Credit Agreement both a Default by the Company and a declaration of acceleration of the Company Obligations and demanding redemption of the bonds of 2009 Credit Agreement Series (including a description of the amount of principal, interest, fees cash collateralization obligations and other amounts which comprise such Company Obligations). The Company waives any right it may have to prior notice of such redemption under the Indenture and any other notice required under the Indenture, including notice to be given by the Company, shall be deemed satisfied by the notice given by the Agent as aforesaid. Upon surrender of the bonds of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series by the Agent to the Trustee, the bonds of 2009 Credit Agreement Series shall be redeemed at a redemption price equal to the aggregate amount of the Company Obligations.
Section 2.The principal amount of bonds of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series outstanding from time to time shall always be equal to $150,000,000 or such lesser principal amount as shall be equal to the Borrower Credit Exposure (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Company on the Commitment Termination Date, but not in excess of $150,000,000.
The obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to principal under the Credit Agreement shall not give rise to an obligation to pay principal of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series Bonds except on the Commitment Termination Date of the Company or upon redemption as provided in this Supplemental Indenture. If at any time any permanent reduction of the Borrower Sublimit of the Company or the Borrower Credit Exposure of the Company shall result in the principal of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series Bonds being greater than the greater of the Borrower Sublimit and the Borrower Credit Exposure, a payment obligation with respect to the principal of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series Bonds in the amount of such excess shall be deemed discharged upon the effectiveness of such permanent reduction. No payment of principal under the Credit Agreement shall reduce the principal amount of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series Bonds to an amount less than the greater of the Borrower Sublimit and the Borrower Credit Exposure.
-9-
The obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the interest on the bonds of 2009 Credit Agreement Series shall be fully or partially, as the case may be, satisfied and discharged to the extent that, at the time that any such payment shall be due, the then due interest and/or fees of the Company under the Credit Agreement shall have been fully or partially paid. Satisfaction of any obligation to the extent that payment is made with respect to the interest and/or fees of the Company under the Credit Agreement means that if any payment is made on the interest and/or fees of the Company under the Credit Agreement, a corresponding payment obligation with respect to the interest on the bonds of 2009 Credit Agreement Series shall be deemed discharged in the same amount as such payment made on the interest and/or fees of the Company under the Credit Agreement.
The Trustee may at any time and all times conclusively assume that the obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the principal of and interest on the bonds of 2009 Credit Agreement Series, so far as such payments at the time have become due, has been fully satisfied and discharged pursuant to the foregoing paragraphs unless and until the Trustee shall have received a written notice from the Agent stating (a) that timely payment of principal of or interest on the bonds of 2009 Credit Agreement Series has not been made, (b) that the Company is in arrears as to the payments required to be made by it to the Agent in connection with the Company Obligations pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and (c) the amount of the arrearage.
As used herein, (A) “Business Day” shall have the meaning assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement; (B) “Interest Payment Date” shall mean each date on which Company Obligations constituting interest and/or fees are due and payable from time to time pursuant to the Credit Agreement; (C) “Interest Rate” shall mean a rate of interest per annum, adjusted as necessary, to result in an interest payment equal to the aggregate amount of Company Obligations constituting interest and fees of the Company due under the Credit Agreement on the applicable Interest Payment Date; and (D) “Record Date” with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall mean the day (whether or not a Business Day) immediately next preceding such Interest Payment Date.
At any time that a bond of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series is surrendered to the Trustee other than in connection with the redemption thereof, in connection with the Trustee’s enforcement of rights after a completed default under the Mortgage or in connection with the exchange of that bond as provided in Section 1 hereof, such bond shall be cancelled by the Trustee and shall be treated for all intents and purposes as if it has never been issued. In the event that only a portion of a bond of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series is so surrendered, the Trustee shall deliver without charge to the Agent a new bond of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series in an aggregate principal amount equal to the difference between the principal amount of the portion of the bond of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series so surrendered and the principal amount of such bond prior to such surrender.
As provided in Section 8.4 of the Credit Agreement, the Agent shall surrender the bonds of 2009 Credit Agreement Series to the Trustee for cancellation when each of the Borrower Sublimit and the Borrower Credit Exposure of the Company have been reduced to zero and all fees and other amounts payable by the Company pursuant to the Credit Agreement with respect to the Company Obligations shall have been duly paid.
-10-
Section 3.As supplemented and amended by this Supplemental Indenture, the Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and this Supplemental Indenture and all the terms and conditions herein contained shall be deemed a part thereof.
Section 4. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, no duties, responsibilities or liabilities are assumed, or shall be construed to be assumed, by the Trustee by reason of this Supplemental Indenture, other than as set forth in the Indenture as heretofore amended and supplemented. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the recitals herein or in the bonds (other than in the authentication certificate of the Trustee), all of which are made by the Company solely.
Section 5. This Supplemental Indenture may be executed in several counterparts, and all such counterparts executed and delivered, each as an original, shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
Section 6. The Company acknowledges and intends that all advances made to it by the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, including future advances whenever hereafter made, shall be a lien from the time this Supplemental Indenture is recorded, as provided in Section 15-1302(b)(1) of the Illinois Mortgage Foreclosure Law (the “Act”), 735 ILCS 15-1101, et seq. The amount of the bonds of the 2009 Credit Agreement Series which comprises the principal amount then-outstanding of the Obligations under the Credit Agreement constitutes revolving credit indebtedness secured by a mortgage on real property, pursuant to the terms and conditions of 205 ILCS 5/5d from the date of this Supplemental Indenture.
Section 7. The Company shall provide the Trustee with copies of the Credit Agreement and any amendments thereto as soon as practicable after such Credit Agreement or amendment is entered into and the Trustee in performing its duties hereunder shall be entitled to rely on the latest copy of the Credit Agreement and any amendments thereto received from the Company. To the extent not identified in the Credit Agreement or amendment, as provided in the preceding sentence, the Company will inform the Trustee of any change in the identity of the Agent and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the notice or instructions received from the Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement or amendment.
