Section 1.02

For all purposes of this Supplemental Indenture:

(b) All references herein to Articles and Sections, unless otherwise specified, refer to the corresponding Articles and Sections of this Supplemental Indenture; and

ARTICLE TWO

8.25% SENIOR NOTES, SERIES DUE JANUARY 15, 2019

Section 2.01 There shall be a series of Notes designated the “8.25% Senior Notes, Series due January 15, 2019” (the “Senior Notes due 2019”). The Senior Notes due 2019 shall be limited to $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount except as provided in Section 2.08 hereof.

Section 2.02 Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.05 hereof, the principal amount of the Senior Notes due 2019 shall be payable on the stated maturity date of January 15, 2019.

Section 2.03 The Senior Notes due 2019 shall be dated their date of authentication as provided in the Indenture and shall bear interest from their date at the rate of 8.25% per annum, payable semiannually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing July 15, 2009. The Regular Record Dates with respect to such January 15 and July 15 interest payment dates shall be January 1 and July 1, respectively. Principal and interest shall be payable to the persons and in the manner provided in Sections 2.04 and 2.12 of the Indenture.

Section 2.04 The Senior Notes due 2019 shall be payable at the corporate trust office of the Trustee and at the offices of such paying agents as the Company may appoint by Company Order in the future.

Section 2.05 The Company, at its option, may redeem on any date all or, from time to time, any part of the Senior Notes due 2019, upon notice as provided in the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of such Senior Notes due 2019 to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the date of redemption on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date (i) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Remaining Life (as defined below), yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month) or (ii) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date. The Treasury Rate will be calculated on the third business day preceding the date fixed for redemption.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the U.S. Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (“Remaining Life”) of the Senior Notes due 2019 to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Senior Notes due 2019.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means (1) the average of five Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“Independent Investment Banker” means either Mizuho Securities USA Inc., Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc., UBS Securities LLC or another independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) each of Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc., Mizuho Securities USA Inc. and UBS Securities LLC or their respective successors, and any other primary U.S. government securities dealer in the United States (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) selected by Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc., Mizuho Securities USA Inc. or UBS Securities LLC or their respective successors, provided, however, that if any of the foregoing ceases to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company after consultation with the Independent Investment Banker.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

The Senior Notes due 2019 shall not be subject to any sinking fund.

Section 2.06 The Senior Notes due 2019 shall be issued in fully registered form without coupons in a minimum denomination of $2,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Section 2.07 The Release Date (as defined in the Indenture) occurred on April 6, 1998. Accordingly, the Senior Notes due 2019 shall be issued as unsecured general obligations of the Company. The Senior Notes due 2019, and all other Notes issued or to be issued under the Indenture, will not be secured by First Mortgage Bonds of the Company and will not be entitled to the lien of or the benefits provided by the First Mortgage, which has been extinguished.

Section 2.08 The Senior Notes due 2019 may be reopened and additional notes of the Senior Notes due 2019 may be issued in excess of the limitation set forth in Section 2.01, provided that such additional notes will contain the same terms (including the maturity date and interest payment terms) as the other Senior Notes due 2019. Any such additional Senior Notes due 2019, together with the other Senior Notes due 2019, shall constitute a single series for purposes of the Indenture.

Section 2.09 The Senior Notes due 2019 shall initially be in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto.

TWO HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS

No interest shall accrue on the Maturity Date, so long as the principal amount of this Global Note is paid on the Maturity Date. The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly provided for on any such Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the January 1 or the July 1, as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date, provided that the first Interest Payment Date for any part of this Note, the Original Issue Date of which is after a Regular Record Date but prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, shall be the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding Regular Record Date; and provided that interest payable on the Maturity Date set forth above or, if applicable, upon redemption, repayment or acceleration, shall be payable to the Person to whom principal shall be payable. Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture (as defined below), any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and shall be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Noteholders not more than fifteen days or fewer than ten days prior to such Special Record Date. On or before 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or such other time as shall be agreed upon between the Trustee and the Depositary, of the day on which such payment of interest is due on this Global Note (other than maturity), the Trustee shall pay to the Depositary such interest in same day funds. On or before 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or such other time as shall be agreed upon between the Trustee and the Depositary, of the day on which principal, interest payable at maturity and premium, if any, is due on this Global Note, the Trustee shall deposit with the Depositary the amount equal to the principal, interest payable at maturity and premium, if any, by wire transfer into the account specified by the Depositary. As a condition to the payment, on the Maturity Date or upon redemption, repayment or acceleration, of any part of the principal and applicable premium of this Global Note, the Depositary shall surrender, or cause to be surrendered, this Global Note to the Trustee, whereupon a new Global Note shall be issued to the Depositary.

This Global Note is a global security in respect of a duly authorized issue of 8.25% Senior Notes, Series due January 15, 2019 (the “Notes of this Series,” which term includes any Global Notes representing such Notes) of the Company issued and to be issued under an Indenture dated as of October 1, 1995 between the Company and UMB Bank, N.A., as successor trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any subsequent successor Trustee under the Indenture) to Boatmen’s First National Bank of Oklahoma, and indentures supplemental thereto (collectively, the “Indenture”). Under the Indenture, one or more series of notes may be issued and, as used herein, the term “Notes” refers to the Notes of this Series and any other outstanding series of Notes. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a more complete statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities under the Indenture of the Company, the Trustee and the Noteholders and of the terms upon which the Notes are and are to be authenticated and delivered. This Global Note has been issued in respect of the series designated on the first page hereof.

Each Note of this Series shall be dated and issued as of the date of its authentication by the Trustee and shall bear an Original Issue Date or Dates. Each Note or Global Note issued upon transfer, exchange or substitution of such Note or Global Note shall bear the Original Issue

A-2

Date or Dates of such transferred, exchanged or substituted Note or Global Note, as the case may be.

The Company, at its option, may redeem on any date all or, from time to time, any part of this Global Note, upon notice as provided in the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of this Global Note to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the date of redemption on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the U.S. Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (“Remaining Life”) of the Notes of this Series to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes of this Series.

selected by Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc., Mizuho Securities USA Inc. or UBS Securities LLC or their respective successors, provided, however, that if any of the foregoing ceases to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company after consultation with the Independent Investment Banker.

Notice of redemption will be given by mail or by electronic communication (including e-mail) to Holders of Notes of this Series not less than 30 or more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, all as provided in the Indenture. In the event of redemption of this Global Note in part only, a new Global Note or Notes of like tenor and series for the unredeemed interest hereof will be issued in the name of the Noteholder hereof upon the surrender hereof.

Interest payments for this Global Note shall be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any Interest Payment Date or date on which the principal of this Global Note is required to be paid is not a Business Day, then payment of principal, premium or interest need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date or date on which the principal of this Global Note is required to be paid and, in the case of timely payment thereof, no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the date on which the principal of this Global Note is required to be paid.

The Company, at its option, and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Indenture, will be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the Notes (except for certain obligations including obligations to register the transfer or exchange of Notes, replace stolen, lost or mutilated Notes, maintain paying agencies and hold monies for payment in trust, all as set forth in the Indenture) if the Company deposits with the Trustee money, U.S. Government Obligations which through the payment of interest thereon and principal thereof in accordance with their terms will provide money, or a combination of money and U.S. Government Obligations, in any event in an amount sufficient, without reinvestment, to pay all the principal of and any premium and interest on the Notes on the dates such payments are due in accordance with the terms of the Notes.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modifications of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Noteholders under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Global Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Global Note and of any Note issued upon the

A-4

registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon the Note.

As set forth in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of any Notes will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy thereunder unless such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to such Notes, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes affected by such Event of Default shall have made written request and offered reasonable indemnity to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as Trustee and the Trustee shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days; provided that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal of and any premium or interest on this Note on or after the respective due dates expressed here.

No reference herein to the Indenture and to provisions of this Global Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Global Note at the times, places and rates and the coin or currency prescribed in the Indenture.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Global Note may be transferred only as permitted by the legend hereto.

If at any time the Depositary for this Global Note notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for this Global Note or if at any time the Depositary for this Global Note shall no longer be eligible or in good standing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to this Global Note. If a successor Depositary for this Global Note is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company’s election to issue this Note in global form shall no longer be effective with respect to this Global Note and the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of individual Notes of this Series in exchange for this Global Note, will authenticate and deliver individual Notes of this Series of like tenor and terms in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of this Global Note.

The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that all Notes of this Series (but not less than all) issued or issuable in the form of one or more Global Notes shall no longer be represented by such Global Note or Notes. In such event, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of individual Notes of this Series in exchange for such Global Note, shall authenticate and deliver, individual Notes of this Series of like tenor and terms in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note or Notes in exchange for such Global Note or Notes.

Under certain circumstances specified in the Indenture, the Depositary may be required to surrender any two or more Global Notes which have identical terms (but which may have differing Original Issue Dates) to the Trustee, and the Company shall execute and the Trustee

A-5

shall authenticate and deliver to, or at the direction of, the Depositary a Global Note in principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of, and with all terms identical to, the Global Notes surrendered thereto and that shall indicate all Original Issue Dates and the principal amount applicable to each such Original Issue Date.

The Indenture and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Oklahoma.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee, directly or through an Authenticating Agent by manual signature of an authorized signatory, this Global Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

All terms used in this Global Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated herein.
