The 2005 Bonds have been issued by the Company to secure the obligation
of the Company to pay to or for the account of the Authority (defined below) an
amount equal to the principal, premium, if any, of, and interest on, the
Authority Bonds (defined below) pursuant to the Financing Agreement (the
"Financing Agreement") dated as of December 15, 2005, between the Delaware
County Industrial Development Authority, a Pennsylvania body politic and

principal amount thereof to its successor as trustee under the Authority
Indenture, which successor and each subsequent successor shall hold such
Authority Bonds subject to the same restriction on transfer.
7
In the event any Authority Bonds shall be purchased by the Company and
cancelled pursuant to the Authority Indenture, Bonds corresponding in principal
amount to the Authority Bonds so purchased and cancelled shall be deemed to be
paid in full, and in the event and to the extent the principal of, and premium,
if any, or interest on, any Authority Bonds is paid out of funds held by the
Authority Trustee other than payments on Bonds, the corresponding payment of the
principal of and premium, if any, or interest on, an aggregate principal amount
of Bonds shall be deemed to have been satisfied.
In the event this Bond shall be deemed to have been paid in full, this
Bond shall be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. In the event this
Bond shall be deemed to have been paid in part, this Bond shall be presented to
the Trustee for notation hereon of the payment of the portion of the principal
hereof so deemed to have been paid.
The Bonds are redeemable only as follows:
(a) The Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity, at the
option of the Company, on or after February 1, 2015, in whole or in part, at a
redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed,

the Authority Indenture.
(c) The Bonds are also subject to special mandatory redemption at the
direction of the Company, in part, prior to maturity, at a redemption price of

Authority Bonds are subject to special mandatory redemption pursuant to Section
7.01(a)(iii) of the Authority Indenture.
(d) The Bonds are also subject to mandatory redemption by the Company
in whole if the Trustee shall receive a written demand from the Authority
Trustee for redemption of all such Bonds held by the Authority Trustee stating
that an "Event of Default" as defined in Section 9.01(a) of the Authority
Indenture has occurred and is continuing and that payment of the principal of
the Authority Bonds has been accelerated pursuant to Section 9.01(b) of the
Authority Indenture, provided that at the time of notice of such redemption as
provided in Section 2 of Article V of the Original Indenture (i) said written
demand shall not have been withdrawn by the Authority Trustee, and (ii) no event
of default under Section 1 of Article XI of the Original Indenture shall have
occurred and be continuing.
8
If this Bond or any portion hereof is called for redemption and payment
thereof is duly provided for as specified in the Indenture, interest shall cease
to accrue hereon or on such portion, as the case may be, from and after the date
fixed for redemption.
The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to its
maturity date on the conditions, in the manner and with the effect set forth in
the Indenture upon the happening of an event of default, as in the Indenture
provided; subject, however, to the right, under certain circumstances, of the
registered owners of a majority in principal amount of Bonds outstanding to
annul such declaration.
This Bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof in person or
by attorney duly authorized in writing, on books of the Company to be kept for
that purpose at the designated office of the Trustee in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania upon surrender hereof for cancellation at such office and upon
presentation of a written instrument of transfer duly executed, and thereupon
the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee or transferees, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Bond or Bonds in authorized
denominations, of equal aggregate unpaid principal amount. Any such transfer or
exchange shall be subject to the terms and conditions and to the payment of the
charges specified in the Indenture.
The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the registered owner of
this Bond as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of
or on account of the principal hereof and the interest hereon, and for all other
purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or
interest on this Bond or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect
hereof or of the Indenture or of any indenture supplemental thereto against any
incorporator or any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of
the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either
directly or through the Company or through any such predecessor or successor
corporation or through any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy, by virtue of any
constitutional provision, statute or rule of law or equity, or by the
enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; all such liability being,
by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof,
expressly waived and released by every holder or registered owner hereof, as
more fully provided in the Indenture.
This Bond shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or
any indenture supplemental thereto, or become valid or obligatory for any
purpose, until J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association, as Trustee under
the Indenture, or a successor trustee thereunder, shall have signed the
certificate of authentication endorsed hereon.

Interest on the Bonds shall be payable semiannually on February 1 and
August 1 of each year (each an "interest payment date"), commencing February 1,
2006. Each Bond shall be dated the date of its authentication and shall bear

Date as defined below and on or before the succeeding interest payment date,
from such succeeding interest payment date, or if such Bond is authenticated on
or prior to the record date for the first interest payment date for the Bonds,
in which case it shall bear interest from the date of original issuance of the
Bonds); provided, however, that, if at the time of authentication of any Bond,
interest on the predecessor Bond of such Bond is in default, such Bond shall
bear interest from the date to which interest has been paid, or, if no interest
has been paid, from the date of original issuance thereof. The 5.00% Series due
2035 shall be stated to mature (subject to the right of earlier redemption at
the prices and dates and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth) on

address as the same appears on the books maintained for such purpose by or on
behalf of the Company, or by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds
pursuant to instructions and conditions incorporated in an agreement between
such person and the Trustee or the Company.
The person in whose name any Bond is registered at the close of
business on any Record Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to any
interest payment date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such
interest payment date notwithstanding the cancellation of such Bond upon any
transfer or exchange subsequent to the Record Date and prior to such interest
payment date; provided, however, that if and to the extent the Company shall
default in the payment of the interest due on such interest payment date, such
defaulted interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names outstanding Bonds
are registered at the close of business on a subsequent Record Date established
by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Company to the holders of Bonds
not less than fifteen days preceding such subsequent Record Date, such Record
Date to be not less than ten days preceding the date of payment of such
defaulted interest. The term "Record Date" with respect to any regular interest
payment date shall mean the fifteenth day of the calendar month next preceding
the month in which such interest payment date occurs.

transfer the Bonds except for a transfer of the entire outstanding principal
amount thereof to its successor as Trustee under the Authority Indenture, which
successor and each subsequent successor shall hold the Bonds subject to the same
restriction on transfer.
