Re: Taxable Revenue Bonds, 7.13% Series 1999A due 2021 (Escatawpa Funding, Limited Partnership Project)

as of October 20, 2011

TO THE BONDHOLDERS WHOSE NAMES APPEAR IN THE ACCEPTANCE FORM AT THE END HEREOF

Ladies and Gentlemen:

MISSISSIPPI BUSINESS FINANCE CORPORATION, a body corporate and politic and instrumentality of the State of Mississippi (the “Issuer”), and MISSISSIPPI POWER COMPANY, a Mississippi corporation (the “Company”), hereby agree with you as follows:

BACKGROUND

Juniper Capital L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Juniper”), owns a 1064 megawatt combined cycle electric generation facility and related equipment (said combined cycle electric generation facility, together with all improvements and equipment, and any replacements thereof, are collectively called the “Facility”). The components of the Facility are located in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ County, Mississippi, on land more particularly described in Exhibit A to the Ground Lease referred to below (the “Site”), which Site has been leased by the Company and Gulf Power Company, a Florida corporation (together with the Company, the “Ground Lessor”), to Escatawpa Funding, Limited Partnership pursuant to a Ground Lease dated as of April 29, 1999, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto dated as of May 4, 2001, as assigned to Juniper pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption of Ground Lease dated as of June 27, 2003 (as so amended and assigned, the “Ground Lease”). The Facility, the leasehold interest in the Site, and the respective easements, servitudes, rights of way, rights and appurtenances relating to the Site as described in the Ground Lease are collectively called the “Project”.

Juniper and the Company entered into (i) an Amended and Restated Lease Agreement dated as of June 27, 2003, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto dated as of October 20, 2005 (as amended, the “Lease”), pursuant to which the Company leases the Project from Juniper; and (ii) an Amended and Restated Facility Support Agreement dated as of June 27, 2003 (the “Facility Support Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company undertook, among other things, to provide Juniper with continued, non-exclusive use of certain essential services and facilities if Juniper takes possession of the Project in certain circumstances.

In addition, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ & Co., Inc. (“Merrill”) executed and delivered an amended and restated shortfall letter agreement on October 20, 2005 (the “Merrill Shortfall Agreement”), pursuant to which Merrill agreed to pay Juniper certain amounts in connection

with a surrender of the Facility pursuant to Section 13(f) of the Lease resulting in payment of the Residual Guaranty Amount (as defined in the Lease).

For the purpose of financing (or refinancing in part) the Project, the Issuer has heretofore issued and sold (i) $270,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Taxable Revenue Bonds, 7.13% Series 1999A due 2021 (Escatawpa Funding, Limited Partnership Project) (the “Fixed Rate A-Bonds”), (ii) $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Taxable Revenue Bonds, 6.62% Series 1999B due 2011 (Escatawpa Funding, Limited Partnership Project) (the “Fixed Rate B-Bonds” and, together with the Fixed Rate A-Bonds, collectively the “Existing Fixed Rate Bonds”) and (iii) $25,128,008, aggregate principal amount of its Taxable Revenue Bonds, Series 2005 due 2011 (Escatawpa Funding, Limited Partnership Project) (the “Floating Rate Bonds” and, together with the Existing Fixed Rate Bonds, collectively, the “Existing Bonds”). The Fixed Rate A-Bonds remain outstanding in their aggregate original principal amount and are the subject of this Agreement. The Fixed Rate B-Bonds and the Floating Rate Bonds are being paid in full at maturity, and will no longer be outstanding, as of the date hereof. The Existing Fixed Rate Bonds were issued and sold pursuant to an Amended and Restated Bond Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 27, 2003, as amended by the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Bond Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 20, 2005 (as amended, the “Fixed Rate Bond Purchase Agreement”), entered into by the Issuer and Juniper with the bond purchasers listed in the Fixed Rate Bond Purchase Agreement. The Floating Rate Bonds were issued and sold pursuant to a Bond Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 20, 2005 (the “Floating Rate Bond Purchase Agreement” and, together with the Fixed Rate Bond Purchase Agreement, the “Bond Purchase Agreements”), entered into by the Issuer and Juniper with the bond purchasers listed in the Floating Rate Bond Purchase Agreement.

The Existing Bonds are secured by an Amended and Restated Indenture of Trust, Security Agreement and Collateral Assignment of Contracts dated as of June 27, 2003, as amended and supplemented by the First Supplement to Indenture of Trust, Security Agreement and Collateral Assignment of Contracts dated as of October 20, 2005 (as so supplemented and amended, the “Existing Collateral Indenture”), from Juniper to the Collateral Trustee (as defined herein), covering, among other things, Juniper’s right, title and interest in and to the Facility, the Lease, the Ground Lease, the obligations of Merrill under the Merrill Shortfall Agreement, the Facility Support Agreement and other Collateral (as defined in the Existing Collateral Indenture). The Existing Bonds are also secured by a Leasehold Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Fixture Filing dated as of April 29, 1999, as amended by the First Amendment to Leasehold Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Fixture Filing dated as of May 4, 2001, the Second Amendment to Leasehold Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Fixture Filing dated as of June 27, 2003 and the Third Amendment to Leasehold Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Fixture Filing dated as of October 20, 2005 (as so amended, the “Existing Leasehold Deed of Trust”), from Juniper to the trustee named therein for the benefit of the Collateral Trustee, creating a Lien on the leasehold interest in the Site under the Ground Lease and the portions of the Facility constituting fixtures, as security for the Existing Bonds and certain other secured obligations.

Pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Lease, the Company delivered to Juniper a notice dated July 20, 2011 (the “Purchase Option Notice”) informing Juniper of the Company’s intent to purchase the Project as a whole for an amount equal to its Adjusted Acquisition Cost (as defined in the Lease) on the Basic Rent Payment Date (as defined in the Lease) occurring on October 20, 2011 (the “Purchase”). In connection with such Purchase, Juniper and the Company intend to terminate the Lease, the Merrill Shortfall Agreement, the Facility Support Agreement and certain ancillary documents delivered by Juniper, the Company, Merrill and the Collateral Trustee in connection with the Lease and the Bond Purchase Agreements.

Pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Lease and Section 12.11 of the Fixed Rate Bond Purchase Agreement, the Company has elected to assume Juniper’s obligations under that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of June 27, 2003 (the “Existing Loan Agreement”), between the Issuer and Juniper, pursuant to which the proceeds of the Fixed Rate A-Bonds were loaned by the Issuer to Juniper as evidenced by that certain Promissory Note dated April 29, 1999 from Juniper to the Issuer in the amount of $270,000,000 (the “Existing Note”), such that the purchase price for the Company’s Purchase of the Project will be paid through a combination of (i) cash and (ii) the assumption of Juniper’s obligations under the Existing Loan Agreement.

The Issuer’s rights, title, and interests under the Existing Loan Agreement, the Existing Note and related documents and the Issuer’s rights, title and interests in and to the proceeds of the Fixed Rate A-Bonds have been assigned to the Collateral Trustee pursuant to an Amended and Restated Assignment Agreement dated as of June 27, 2003 (the “Existing Assignment”) between the Issuer and the Collateral Trustee.

1.	Purchase of Project; Assumption of Obligations.

The Company proposes to acquire the Project from Juniper and assume the rights and obligations of Juniper under, inter alia, the Fixed Rate Bond Purchase Agreement, the Existing Collateral Indenture, the Existing Leasehold Deed of Trust, the Existing Loan Agreement, the Existing Note and the Existing Assignment pursuant to the terms of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement (hereinafter defined). The Company also proposes to assume the rights and obligations of Juniper under the Ground Lease and the Easement (as hereinafter defined), pursuant to the terms of the Assignment and Assumption of Ground Lease (as hereinafter defined). Concurrent with such acquisition and assumption, the Company proposes to (i) amend and restate the Fixed Rate Bond Purchase Agreement in its entirety pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) amend and restate the Existing Collateral Indenture in its entirety, (iii) amend and restate the Existing Loan Agreement and the Existing Assignment in their entirety and execute and deliver the Note (hereinafter defined) in exchange for the Existing Note evidencing the indebtedness assumed under the Existing Loan Agreement, (iv) enter into an Amended and Restated Leasehold Deed of Trust (as hereinafter defined) in respect of the Site, and (v) terminate the Lease, the Existing Ground Lessor Consent and Estoppel Certificate, the Floating Rate Bond Purchase Agreement, the Floating Rate Loan Agreement, the Floating Rate Assignment Agreement, the Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement, the Subordinated Deed of Trust, the Merrill Shortfall Letter, the Amended and Restated

Reimbursement Agreement, the Company Fixed Rate Consent and Agreement, the Company Floating Rate Consent and Agreement, the Merrill Consent and Agreement and the Facility Support Agreement all as hereinbelow provided. The Company also proposes that, concurrently with such assumption, Juniper be released from its obligations under the Bond Purchase Agreements, the Existing Collateral Indenture, the Existing Leasehold Deed of Trust and the other existing Finance Documents (as defined in the Bond Purchase Agreements but excluding the Security Agreement and the Participation Agreement referenced therein) to which it is party.

In furtherance of the foregoing, and to evidence the indebtedness assumed hereunder by the Company as currently evidenced by the Fixed Rate A-Bonds, the Issuer has duly authorized an issuance of $270,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its replacement bonds (the “Replacement Bonds”), which Replacement Bonds shall be issued in substitution of, and exchange for, the Fixed Rate A-Bonds and be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. As used herein, the term “Replacement Bonds” means all bonds originally issued and delivered pursuant to this Agreement and the term “Fixed Rate A-Bonds” means all Fixed Rate A-Bonds originally issued and delivered under the Fixed Rate Bond Purchase Agreement, and each such term includes all bonds delivered in substitution or exchange for any of such bonds and, where applicable, includes the singular number as well as the plural. The terms “Replacement Bond” and “Fixed Rate A-Bond” mean one of the Replacement Bonds or Fixed Rate A-Bonds, as applicable.

2.	Exchange of Bonds; the Closing.

Subject to the terms of this Agreement and in furtherance of the Company’s assumption of Juniper’s obligations under the Existing Loan Agreement, the Issuer hereby agrees to deliver to you the Replacement Bonds in the aggregate principal amount or amounts set forth opposite your name in Schedule I hereto, upon surrender by you in exchange therefor of Fixed Rate A-Bonds in the same unpaid principal amount or amounts as set forth opposite your name in Schedule I hereto.

The closing of the assumption of the obligations under the Existing Loan Agreement and the surrender of the Fixed Rate A-Bonds and the delivery of the Replacement Bonds in exchange therefor under this Agreement will be held at the office of Winston & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, at 10:00 a.m. on October 20, 2011 (the “Closing”). At the Closing the Issuer will deliver to you one or more Replacement Bonds, registered in your name or the name of your nominee, in any denominations (subject to integral multiples of $500,000 or, if less, in the amount of the unpaid principal of the corresponding Fixed Rate A-Bond), in the aggregate principal amount or amounts to be acquired by you, all as your special counsel may specify by timely notice to the Company (or, in the absence of such notice, one Replacement Bond for each Fixed Rate A-Bond being surrendered by you, registered in the same name as such Fixed Rate A-Bond), duly executed and dated October 20, 2011, against surrender of the Fixed Rate A-Bonds to be exchanged by you.

If at the Closing the Issuer shall fail to tender the Replacement Bonds to be delivered to you as provided in this Section 2, or any of the conditions specified in Section 6

hereof shall not have been fulfilled, you shall be relieved of all obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights you may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment, and the Fixed Rate Bond Purchase Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the Fixed Rate A-Bonds shall continue to be outstanding thereunder.

3.	Bondholder’s Representation; Consent and Release.

3.1.	Acquisition for Investment.

You severally represent that you are acquiring Replacement Bonds in exchange for your Fixed Rate A-Bonds at the Closing for your own account or for one or more separate accounts maintained by you or for the account of one or more pension or trust funds and not with a view to the distribution thereof, provided that the disposition of your or their property shall at all times be within your or their control. You understand that the Replacement Bonds have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may be resold only if registered pursuant to the provisions of the Securities Act or if an exemption from registration is available, except under circumstances where neither such registration nor such an exemption is required by law, and that neither the Issuer nor the Company is required to register the Replacement Bonds. Your exchange of your Fixed Rate A-Bonds for the Replacement Bonds at the Closing will constitute your confirmation of such representation.

(c) the Source is either (i) an insurance company pooled separate account, within the meaning of PTE 90-1 or (ii) a bank collective investment fund, within the meaning of the PTE 91-38 and, except as disclosed by you to the Company in writing pursuant to this clause (c), no employee benefit plan or group of plans maintained by the same employer or employee organization beneficially owns more than 10% of all assets allocated to such pooled separate account or collective investment fund; or

(d) the Source constitutes assets of an “investment fund” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14 (the “QPAM Exemption”)) managed by a “qualified professional asset manager” or “QPAM” (within the meaning of Part VI of the QPAM Exemption), no employee benefit plan’s assets that are managed by the QPAM in such investment fund, when combined with the assets of all other employee benefit plans established or maintained by the same employer or by an affiliate (within the meaning of Part VI(c)(1) of the QPAM Exemption) of such employer or by the same employee organization and managed by such QPAM, represent more than 20% of the total client assets managed by such QPAM, the conditions of Part I(c) and (g) of the QPAM Exemption are satisfied, neither the QPAM nor a person controlling or controlled by the QPAM maintains an ownership interest in the Company that would cause the QPAM and the Company to be “related” within the meaning of Part VI(h) of the QPAM Exemption and (i) the identity of such QPAM and (ii) the names of any employee benefit plans whose assets in the investment fund, when combined with the assets of all other employee benefit plans established or maintained by the same employer or by an affiliate (within the meaning of Part VI(c)(1) of the QPAM Exemption) of such employer or by the same employee organization, represent 10% or more of the assets of such investment fund, have been disclosed to the Company in writing pursuant to this clause (d); or

(e) the Source constitutes assets of a “plan(s)” (within the meaning of section IV of PTE 96-23 (the “INHAM Exemption”)) managed by an “in-house asset manager” or “INHAM” (within the meaning of Part IV of the INHAM Exemption), the conditions of Part I(a), (g) and (h) of the INHAM Exemption are satisfied, neither the INHAM nor a person controlling or controlled by the INHAM (applying the definition of “control” in section IV(d) of the INHAM Exemption) owns a 5% or more interest in the Company and (i) the identity of such INHAM and (ii) the name(s) of the employee benefit plan(s) whose assets constitute the Source have been disclosed to the Company in writing pursuant to this clause (e); or

(f) the Source is a governmental plan; or

(g) the Source does not include assets of any employee benefit plan, other than a plan exempt from the coverage of ERISA.

As used in this Section 3.2, the terms “employee benefit plan,” “governmental plan,” and “separate account” shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in section 3 of ERISA.

3.3.	Ownership of Fixed Rate A-Bonds.

You severally represent that you are the beneficial owner of the Fixed Rate A-Bonds in the unpaid principal amount or amounts set forth opposite your name in Schedule I hereto and you have received all principal and interest payments due on account of such Fixed Rate A-Bonds up to and including April 20, 2011.

3.4.	Consent and Release.

Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions to its obligation to surrender Fixed Rate A-Bonds in exchange for Replacement Bonds at the Closing as hereinafter provided, each Bondholder severally (i) consents to, and approves the terms of, the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Assignment and Assumption of Ground Lease, the Memorandum of Assignment of Leasehold Deed of Trust, the Master Termination Agreement, the Memorandum of Termination of Lease and the Release of Subordinated Deed of Trust and (ii) irrevocably directs and authorizes the Collateral Trustee and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas in each of its capacities under the Existing Collateral Indenture or any of the Finance Documents (as defined in the Bond Purchase Agreements) to give its consent in respect of such transfer and other transactions and to execute and deliver such instruments and documents, including, but not limited to, any of the Finance Documents and the documents listed in Section 6.2 below, in connection with any of the transactions described herein as may be required or contemplated for the Closing by this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the Purchase and the payment of any Existing Bonds, and to take any other action in furtherance of carrying out the foregoing and the transactions contemplated by the Closing by this Agreement.

(a) The Replacement Bonds shall be prepaid as a whole on the applicable Casualty Settlement Date following the occurrence of an Event of Loss or Taking pursuant to Sections 11(c) or 12(a) hereof, as applicable, at the unpaid principal amount thereof together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such payment, without any Make-Whole Premium.

8.4.	[Intentionally Omitted – See Section 14.8 of the Second Amended and Restated Collateral Indenture as to “Notice of Prepayment”]

8.5.	[Intentionally Omitted – See Section 14.9 of the Second Amended and Restated Collateral Indenture as to “Maturity; Surrender, etc.”]

8.6.	[Intentionally Omitted – See Section 14.10 of the Second Amended and Restated Collateral Indenture as to “Selection of Bonds for Prepayment”]

8.7.	[Intentionally Omitted – See Section 14.11 of the Second Amended and Restated Collateral Indenture as to “Purchase of Bonds”]

8.8.	Make-Whole Premium.

The term “Make-Whole Premium” means, with respect to any Replacement Bond, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Replacement Bond over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Premium may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Premium, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Replacement Bond, the principal of such Replacement Bond that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.3 hereof or Section 14.7 of the Second Amended and Restated Collateral Indenture or has become or is

declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 13.2 hereof, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Replacement Bond, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on such Replacement Bond is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Replacement Bond, 0.5% (50 basis points) over the yield to maturity implied by the yield(s) reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (a) converting U.S. Treasury ▇▇▇▇ quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between the yields Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Replacement Bond.

If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Replacement Bond, 0.5% (50 basis points) over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Replacement Bond.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Replacement Bond, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of such Replacement Bond, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.3 or 13.2 hereof or Section 14.7 of the Second Amended and Restated Collateral Indenture.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Replacement Bond, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.3 hereof or Section 14.7 of the Second Amended and Restated Collateral Indenture or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 13.2 hereof, as the context requires.

The Company shall cooperate with the Collateral Trustee and all insurance companies providing insurance pursuant to Section 9.13 hereof in the investigation and defense of any claims or suits arising from the ownership, operation, occupancy or use of the Project; provided that nothing contained in this paragraph (c) shall be construed as imposing on the Collateral Trustee any duty to investigate or defend any such claims or suits.

(d) The Collateral Trustee or any Bondholder, or any authorized representative of either, may, at reasonable times prior to the maturity of the Replacement

individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Qualifying Bondholder or the Collateral Trustee in connection with the exercise of rights pursuant to Section 9.9(d) hereof or Section 5.1 of the Second Amended and Restated Collateral Indenture during the existence of an Event of Default or Potential Default. The Company shall not, in connection with any of the matters described in this Section 9.11, be liable for the fees and disbursements of more than one separate special counsel firm, and one separate local counsel as reasonably required, unless you or another Bondholder reasonably determine that your or its interests as a Bondholder differ from the interests of other Bondholders so as to require separate legal advice. The Company agrees to pay, and will save you and each other holder of a Replacement Bond harmless from, all claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses, if any, of brokers and finders with respect to the Replacement Bonds (other than those retained by you).

In furtherance of the foregoing, on the date of the Closing the Company will pay or cause to be paid the reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges of your special counsel referred to in Section 6.3 hereof which are reflected in the statements of such special counsel submitted to the Company on or before the date of the Closing.

The obligations of the Company under this Section 9.11 will survive the payment or transfer of any Replacement Bond, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Replacement Bonds, and the termination of this Agreement.

The Issuer shall have no obligation to you or any other Bondholder in connection with the fees, costs and expenses provided for in this Section 9.11.

9.12.
