by and as provided in the Indenture, the rights and obligations of
the Company and/or of the holders of the bonds, and/or the terms

therein as provided in the Indenture), and by the affirmative vote
of at least seventy percent in principal amount of the bonds of any
series entitled to vote then outstanding under the Indenture and
any instruments supplemental thereto (excluding bonds disqualified

bonds then outstanding are so affected; provided that no such
modification or alteration shall permit the extension of the
maturity of the principal of this bond or the reduction in the rate
of interest, if any, hereon or any other modification in the terms
of payment of such principal or interest, if any, or the taking of
certain other action as more fully set forth in the Indenture,
without the consent of the holder hereof.

     Except as provided in the next succeeding paragraph, in the
event of a default under Section 9.1 of the Agreement or in the
event of a default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if
any, or interest (and such default in the payment of interest
continues for the full grace period, if any, permitted by the
Pollution Control Indenture and the Pollution Control Revenue
Bonds) on the Pollution Control Revenue Bonds, whether at maturity,
by tender for purchase, by acceleration, by sinking fund,
redemption or otherwise, as and when the same becomes due, the
                                 9

Indenture, specifying the last date to which interest on the
Pollution Control Revenue Bonds has been paid (such date being

a copy thereof to the Company marked to indicate the date of its
receipt by the Trustee. Promptly upon receipt by the Company of
such copy of a Redemption Demand, the Company shall fix a date on

the Pollution Control Trustee to the Trustee, at a redemption price
equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest
