The Company further covenants and agrees to and with the Trustees and their successors in said trust under the Mortgage, as follows:
ARTICLE I
Forty-Fourth Series of Bonds
Section 1. There shall be a series of bonds designated “Pollution Control Series A” (herein sometimes called the “Forty-fourth Series”), each of which shall also bear the descriptive title “First Mortgage Bond”, and the form thereof, which shall be established by Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, shall contain suitable provisions with respect to the matters hereinafter in this Section specified. Bonds of the Forty-fourth Series (which shall be initially issued in the aggregate principal amount of $128,800,000) shall mature on December 1, 2015, shall be issued as fully registered bonds in the denomination of One Hundred Dollars and, at the option of the Company, in any multiple or multiples of One Hundred Dollars (the exercise of such option to be evidenced by the execution and delivery thereof), shall be dated as in Section 10 of the Mortgage provided, and the principal of, and, to the extent permitted by the Mortgage, interest on any overdue principal of, each said bond shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts.
(I)The bonds of the Forty-fourth Series shall be issued and delivered to, and registered in the name of, the trustee under the Trust Indenture, dated as of December 1, 1985 (hereinafter called the “Pope Indenture”), of Pope County, Arkansas (hereinafter called the “County”) relating to its Pollution Control Revenue Bonds, Series 1985 (Arkansas Power & Light Company Project) (hereinafter called the “Pope Bonds”), in order to evidence in part the Company’s obligation to make certain purchase price payments under the Installment Sale Agreement, dated as of December 1, 1985, between the County and the Company.
The obligation of the Company to make any payment of principal of the bonds of the Forty-fourth Series, whether at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise, shall be reduced by the amount of any reduction under the Pope Indenture of the amount of the corresponding payment required to be made by the County thereunder in respect of the principal of the Pope Bonds. The Corporate Trustee may conclusively presume that the obligation of the Company to pay the principal of the bonds of the Forty-fourth Series as the same shall become due and payable shall have been fully satisfied and discharged unless and until it shall have received a written notice from the trustee under the Pope Indenture, signed by its President, a Vice President or a Trust Officer, stating that the corresponding payment of principal of the Pope Bonds has become due and payable and has not been fully paid and specifying the amount of funds required to make such payment.
(II)In the event that any Pope Bonds outstanding under the Pope Indenture shall become immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 1002 of the Pope Indenture, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 1001 (a) or (b) of the Pope Indenture, all bonds of the Forty-fourth Series, then outstanding, shall be redeemed by the Company, on the date such Pope Bonds shall have become immediately due and payable, at the principal amount thereof.
In the event that any Pope Bonds are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 301(b) of the Pope Indenture, bonds of the Forty-fourth Series, in a principal amount equal, as nearly as practicable, to the sum of (i) the principal amount of such Pope Bonds and (ii) eight-twelfths (8/12) of the annual interest due on such Pope Bonds, shall be redeemed by the Company, on the date fixed for redemption of Pope Bonds, at the principal amount thereof.
The Corporate Trustee may conclusively presume that no redemption of bonds of the Forty-fourth Series is required pursuant to this subsection (II) unless and until it shall have received a written notice from the trustee under the Pope Indenture, signed by its President, a Vice President or a Trust Officer, stating that the Pope Bonds have become immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 1002 of the Pope Indenture, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 1001 (a) or (b) of the Pope Indenture, or that Pope Bonds are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 301(b) of the Thirty-ninth Indenture and specifying the principal amount thereof, as the case may be. Said notice shall also contain a waiver of notice of such redemption by the trustee under the Pope Indenture, as the holder of all the bonds of the Forty‑fourth Series then outstanding.
(III)The Company hereby waives its right to have any notice of redemption pursuant to subsection (II) of this Section 1 state that such notice is subject to the receipt of the redemption moneys by the trustee before the date fixed for redemption. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 52 of the Mortgage, any such notice under such subsections shall not be conditional.
(IV)At the option of the registered owner, any bonds of the Forty-fourth Series, upon surrender thereof for cancellation at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, together with a written instrument of transfer wherever required by the Company, duly executed by the registered owner or by his duly authorized attorney, shall (subject to the provisions of Section 12 of the Mortgage) be exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of bonds of the same series of other authorized denominations.
Bonds of the Forty-fourth Series shall not be transferable except to any successor trustee under the Pope Indenture, any such transfer to be made (subject to the provisions of Section 12 of the Mortgage) at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.
The Company hereby waives any right to make a charge for any exchange or transfer of bonds of the Forty-fourth Series.
(V)The bonds of the Forty-fourth Series may bear such legends as may be necessary to comply with any law or with any rules or regulations made pursuant thereto or with the rules or regulations of any stock exchange or to conform to usage with respect thereto.

Any cash delivered to the Corporate Trustee under the provisions of subsection (I) of Section 39 of this Indenture as now or heretofore in effect shall be held by it as part of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property and
(a)may be withdrawn by the Company in an amount equal to the aggregate amounts deducted pursuant to the provisions of clause (A) of Section 4 hereof from the Cost or fair value of Property Additions in respect of Funded Property retired less the aggregate amounts added pursuant to the provisions of items (a), (b), (c) and (e) of clause (B) of said Section 4 in any Engineer’s Certificate or Engineer’s Certificates theretofore delivered to the Corporate Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Indenture, which amounts shall not theretofore have been made the basis of a credit under subsection (I) of Section 39 of this Indenture as now or heretofore in effect and which amounts the Company then elects in an Officers’ Certificate filed with the Corporate Trustee to make the basis of a credit under this subsection (I) against such withdrawal of cash;

Such moneys shall, from time to time, be paid out or used or applied by the Corporate Trustee, as aforesaid, upon the request of the Company evidenced by a Resolution.
Unless all bonds of the First to Forty-fourth Series, both inclusive, shall have ceased to be Outstanding, any Property Additions which shall have been made the basis of a credit for any purpose under subsection (I) of Section 39 of this Indenture as now or heretofore in effect shall (except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 5 of the Tenth Supplemental Indenture) have the status of Funded Property. Unless all bonds of the First to Forty-fourth Series, both inclusive, shall have ceased to be Outstanding, any election of a credit for any purpose under subsection (I) of Section 39 of this Indenture as now or heretofore in effect based upon the right to the authentication and delivery of any bond or fraction of a bond shall (except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 5 of the Tenth Supplemental Indenture) operate as a waiver by the Company of its right to the authentication and delivery of such bond or fraction of a bond (except as aforesaid) and such bond or fraction of a bond may not thereafter be authenticated and delivered hereunder and (except as aforesaid) any bond or Qualified Lien Bond which has been made the basis of any such right to the authentication and delivery of any bond or fraction of a bond so waived shall be deemed to have been made the basis of a credit under subsection (I) of Section 39 of this Indenture as now or heretofore in effect; provided, however, that if at any time and from time to time after such an election and prior to the time when
all bonds of the First to Forty-fourth Series, both inclusive, shall have ceased to be Outstanding, the Company shall file with the Corporate Trustee an Officers’ Certificate referring to such election and stating:
(i)an amount equal to the aggregate amounts deducted pursuant to the provisions of clause (A) of Section 4 hereof from the Cost or fair value of Property Additions in respect of Funded Property retired less the aggregate amounts added pursuant to the provisions of items (a), (b), (c) and (e) of clause (B) of said Section 4 in any Engineer’s Certificate or Engineer’s Certificates theretofore delivered to the Corporate Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Indenture, which amounts shall not theretofore have been made the basis of a credit under subsection (I) of Section 39 of this Indenture as now or heretofore in effect and which amounts the Company then elects to make the basis of a credit under subsection (I) of Section 39 of this Indenture as now in effect in lieu of an equal principal amount of bonds, the right to the authentication and delivery of which has theretofore been waived pursuant to the provisions of subsection (I) of Section 39 of this Indenture as now or heretofore in effect; or
(ii)the Cost or fair value to the Company whichever is less, as shall be stated in an Engineer’s Certificate or Independent Engineer’s Certificate delivered to the Corporate Trustee of any (gross) Property Additions which are not then Funded Property (without making any of the deductions and additions provided for in subsection (II) of Section 4 hereof) and which Property Additions the Company then elects to make the basis of a credit under this subsection (I) in lieu of an equal principal amount of bonds the right to the authentication and delivery of which has theretofore been waived pursuant to the provisions of subsection (I) of Section 39 of this Indenture as now or heretofore in effect;
then, and in that event, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Company’s waiver made by such election of the right to the authentication and delivery of bonds in the aggregate principal amount specified in the Officers’ Certificate filed pursuant to this provision shall forthwith cease to be effective and the waiver of such right shall no longer be deemed to have been made.
In every case in which any credit under this subsection (I) is, in whole or in part, based upon Property Additions as permitted under clause (4), clause (b) or clause (ii) of this subsection (I), the Company shall comply with all applicable provisions of this Indenture (except subsection (II) of Section 4 hereof) as if such Property Additions were made the basis of an application for the authentication and delivery of bonds thereon (equivalent in principal amount to sixty per centum (60%) of the credit so to be based on such Property Additions), except that in no such case shall the Company be required to comply with any earning requirements or to deliver to the Corporate Trustee any Resolution, Officers’ Certificate, Net Earning Certificate or Opinion of Counsel such as is described in subdivisions (1), (2), (6) and (8) of Section 28 hereof.
In every case in which any credit under this subsection (I) is to be based in whole or in part upon the right to the authentication and delivery of bonds, as permitted under clause (5) or clause (c) of this subsection (I), the Company shall comply with all applicable provisions of Section 26 or Section 29 hereof, as the case may be, relating to such authentication and delivery, except that in no such case shall the Company be required to comply with any earning requirements or to deliver to the Corporate Trustee any Resolution, Officers’ Certificate, Net Earning Certificate or Opinion of Counsel such as is described in subdivisions (1), (2), (6) and (8) of Section 28 hereof.
In every case in which any cash under this subsection (I) is, in whole or in part, to be withdrawn on the basis of expenditures as permitted under clause (d) of this subsection (I), there shall be delivered to the Corporate Trustee, an Engineer’s Certificate, made and dated not more than ninety (90) days prior to the date
of the application for such withdrawal of cash, stating the fair value, in the opinion of the signers, of the property for which such expenditures were made.”
Section 5. All bonds of the First through Tenth Series being no longer Outstanding, subdivision (2) of Section 7 of the Mortgage is amended by deleting said subdivision, as now in effect, and substituting therefor the following:
“(2) Its operating expenses, with the principal divisions thereof, including, but without limitation, all expenses and accruals for repairs and maintenance, an amount, if any (not otherwise included), equal to the provisions for amortization of any amounts included in utility plant acquisition adjustment accounts for such period and all appropriations out of income for property retirement not only in respect of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property but also in respect of all other property owned by the Company; provided, however, that, in lieu of including in such operating expenses the amounts actually appropriated out of income for retirement of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property used primarily and principally in the electric, gas, steam and/or hot water utility business and of the automotive equipment of the Company used in the operation of such property, there shall be included in such operating expenses an amount for each full calendar month included in such period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months equal to (i) one-twelfth (1/12th) of Five Million Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($5,800,000), plus (ii) one-twelfth (1/12th) of two per centum (2%) of the gross charges to plant account for additions to the depreciable property included in the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, used primarily and principally in the electric, gas, steam and/or hot water utility business, made subsequent to September 30, 1959, and prior to the beginning of the calendar year within which such calendar month is included, less (iii) one-twelfth (1/12th) of two per centum (2%) of the gross credits to plant account for retirement of the depreciable property included in the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, used primarily and principally in the electric, gas, steam and/or hot water utility business, made subsequent to September 30, 1959, and prior to the beginning of the calendar year within which such calendar month is included, in each case, excluding from plant account any amounts included in utility plant acquisition adjustment accounts or utility plant adjustment accounts or in any accounts for similar purposes; provided, further, that the amount so included in such operating expenses in lieu of the amounts actually appropriated out of income for retirement of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property used primarily and principally in the electric, gas, steam and/or hot water utility business and the Company’s automotive equipment used in the operation of such property shall not be less than the amounts so actually appropriated out of income.”
