CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

THIS CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT, dated as of August 1, 2004 is entered into by and among:

(a) PPL RECEIVABLES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"),

(b) PPL Electric Utilities Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation ("PPL Electric"), as initial Servicer (the Servicer together with Borrower, the "PPL Electric Parties" and each, a "PPL Electric Party"),

(c) The entities listed on Schedule A to this Agreement (together with any of their respective successors and assigns hereunder, the "Liquidity Banks"),

(d) Blue Ridge Asset Funding Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Blue Ridge"), and

(e) Wachovia Bank, National Association, as agent for the Lenders hereunder or any successor agent hereunder (together with its successors and assigns hereunder, the "Agent").

Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I and if not defined in Exhibit I, shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Receivables Sale Agreement.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

Borrower desires to borrow from the Lenders from time to time.

Blue Ridge may, in its absolute and sole discretion, make Advances to Borrower from time to time.

In the event that Blue Ridge declines to make any Advance, the Liquidity Banks shall, at the request of Borrower, make Advances from time to time.

Wachovia Bank, National Association has been requested and is willing to act as Agent on behalf of Blue Ridge and the Liquidity Banks in accordance with the terms hereof.

Article I

The Advances

Section 1.1 Credit Facility.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date:

(i) Borrower may, at its option, request Advances from the Lenders in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the lesser of the Aggregate Commitment and the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, the "Borrowing Limit"); and

(ii) Blue Ridge may, at its option, make the requested Advance, or if Blue Ridge shall decline to make any Advance, except as otherwise provided in Section 1.2, the Liquidity Banks severally agree to make Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to the requested Advance.

Each of the Advances, and all other Obligations, shall be secured by the Collateral as provided in Article XIII. It is the intent of Blue Ridge to fund all Advances by the issuance of Commercial Paper.

(b) Borrower may, upon at least thirty (30) days' notice to the Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part, ratably among the Liquidity Banks, the unused portion of the Aggregate Commitment; provided that each partial reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be in an amount equal to $10,000,000 (or a larger integral multiple of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof) and shall reduce the Commitments of the Liquidity Banks ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares.

Section 1.2 Increases.

Borrower shall provide the Agent with at least two (2) Business Days' (or in the case of the Advance made on the Closing Date, one (1) Business Days') prior notice in a form set forth as Exhibit II hereto of each Advance (each, a "Borrowing Notice"). Each Borrowing Notice shall be subject to Section 6.2 hereof and, except as set forth below, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested increase in Aggregate Principal (which shall not be less than $1,000,000 or a larger integral multiple of $100,000) and the Borrowing Date and, in the case of an Advance to be funded by the Liquidity Banks, the requested Interest Rate and Interest Period. Following receipt of a Borrowing Notice, the Agent will determine whether Blue Ridge agrees to make the requested Advance. If Blue Ridge declines to make a proposed Advance, Borrower may cancel the Borrowing Notice or, in the absence of such a cancellation, the Advance will be made by the Liquidity Banks; provided, however, that in no event will more than four (4) Advances be made during any calendar month. On the date of each Advance, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, Blue Ridge or the Liquidity Banks, as applicable, shall deposit into the Facility Account, in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time), an amount equal to in the case of Blue Ridge, the principal amount of the requested Advance or in the case of a Liquidity Bank, such Liquidity Bank's Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of the requested Advance.

Section 1.3 Decreases.

Except as provided in Section 1.4, Borrower shall provide the Agent with prior written notice in conformity with the Required Notice Period (a "Reduction Notice") of any proposed reduction of Aggregate Principal. Such Reduction Notice shall designate the date (the "Proposed Reduction Date") upon which any such reduction of Aggregate Principal shall occur (which date shall give effect to the applicable Required Notice Period), and the amount of Aggregate Principal to be reduced which shall be applied ratably to the Loans of Blue Ridge and the Liquidity Banks in accordance with the amount of principal (if any) owing to Blue Ridge, on the one hand, and the amount of principal (if any) owing to the Liquidity Banks (ratably, based on their respective Pro Rata Shares), on the other hand (the "Aggregate Reduction"). Only one (1) Reduction Notice shall be outstanding at any time.

Section 1.4 Deemed Collections; Borrowing Limit.

(a) If on any day:

(i) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced as a result of any cash discount or any other adjustment by any Originator or any Affiliate thereof, or as a result of any tariff or other governmental or regulatory action, or

(ii) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced or canceled as a result of a setoff in respect of any claim by the Obligor thereof (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related or an unrelated transaction), or

(iii) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced on account of the obligation of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof to pay to the related Obligor any rebate or refund, or

(iv) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is less than the amount included in calculating the Net Pool Balance for purposes of any Monthly Report (for any reason other than such Receivable becoming a Defaulted Receivable), or

(v) any of the representations or warranties of Borrower set forth in Section 5.1(b), Section 5.1(e), Section 5.1(f), Section 5.1(h), Section 5.1(i), Section 5.1(q), Section 5.1(r), Section 5.1(s) or Section 5.1(t) were not true when made with respect to any Receivable,

then, on such day, Borrower shall be deemed to have received a Collection of such Receivable (A) in the case of clauses (i) - (iv) above, in the amount of such reduction or cancellation or the difference between the actual Outstanding Balance and the amount included in calculating such Net Pool Balance, as applicable; and (B) in the case of clause (v) above, in the amount of the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable and, effective as of the date on which the next succeeding Monthly Report is required to be delivered, the Borrowing Base shall be reduced by the amount of such Deemed Collection.

(b) Borrower shall ensure that the Aggregate Principal at no time exceeds the Borrowing Limit. If at any time the Aggregate Principal exceeds the Borrowing Limit, Borrower shall pay to the Agent not later than the next succeeding Business Day an amount to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Principal (as allocated by the Agent), such that after giving effect to such payment the Aggregate Principal is less than or equal to the Borrowing Limit.

Section 1.5 Payment Requirements.

All amounts to be paid or deposited by any PPL Electric Party pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the day when due in immediately available funds, and if not received before 12:00 noon (New York time) shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day. If such amounts are payable to a Lender they shall be paid to the Agent's Account, for the account of such Lender, until otherwise notified by the Agent. All computations of CP Costs, Interest, per annum fees calculated as part of any CP Costs, per annum fees hereunder and per annum fees under the Fee Letter shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. If any amount hereunder shall be payable on a day which is not a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 1.6 Ratable Loans; Funding Mechanics; Liquidity Fundings.

(a) Each Advance hereunder shall consist of one or more Loans made by Blue Ridge and/or the Liquidity Banks.

(b) Each Lender funding any Loan shall wire transfer the principal amount of its Loan to the Agent in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the applicable Borrowing Date and, subject to its receipt of such Loan proceeds, the Agent shall wire transfer such funds received by it to the account specified by Borrower in its Borrowing Request not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Borrowing Date.

(c) While it is the intent of Blue Ridge to fund each requested Advance through the issuance of its Commercial Paper, the parties acknowledge that if Blue Ridge is unable, or determines that it is undesirable, to issue Commercial Paper to fund all or any portion of its Loans, or is unable to repay such Commercial Paper upon the maturity thereof, Blue Ridge may put all or any portion of its Loans to the Liquidity Banks at any time pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement to finance or refinance the necessary portion of its Loans through a Liquidity Funding to the extent available. The Liquidity Fundings may be Alternate Base Rate Loans or LIBO Rate Loans, or a combination thereof, selected by Borrower in accordance with Article IV. Regardless of whether a Liquidity Funding constitutes the direct funding of a Loan, an assignment of a Loan made by Blue Ridge or the sale of one or more participations in a Loan made by Blue Ridge, each Liquidity Bank participating in a Liquidity Funding shall have the rights of a "Lender" hereunder with the same force and effect as if it had directly made a Loan to Borrower in the amount of its Liquidity Funding.

(d) Nothing herein shall be deemed to commit Blue Ridge to make Loans.

Article II

Payments and Collections

Section 2.1 Payments.

Borrower hereby promises to pay the following (collectively, the "Obligations"):

(a) the Aggregate Principal on and after the Facility Termination Date as and when Collections are received;

(b) the fees set forth in the Fee Letter on the dates specified therein;

(d) all accrued and unpaid Interest on the LIBO Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto;

(e) all accrued and unpaid CP Costs on the CP Rate Loans on each Settlement Date; and

(f) all Broken Funding Costs and Indemnified Amounts upon demand.

Section 2.2 Collections Prior to Amortization.

(a) On each Settlement Date prior to the Amortization Date, the Servicer shall deposit to the Agent's Account, for distribution to the Lenders, Collections equal to the sum of the following amounts for application to the Obligations in the order specified:

first, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid CP Costs, Interest and Broken Funding Costs (if any) then due and owing,

second, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid fees under the Fee Letter (if any) then due and owing,

third, to the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee (so long as the Servicer is not PPL Electric or an Affiliate of PPL Electric),

fourth, if required under Section 1.3 or Section 1.4, to the ratable reduction of Aggregate Principal,

fifth, for the ratable payment of all other unpaid Obligations, if any, then due and owing, and

sixth, to the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee (so long as the Servicer is PPL Electric or an Affiliate of PPL Electric).

(b) Provided that (i) each of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2 are satisfied and (ii) the Amortization Date has not occurred, any Collections received in excess of the amount necessary to make the payments required under Section 2.2(a) shall, after application in payment for new Receivables or otherwise in payment for obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Receivables Sale Agreement, be distributed to Borrower or otherwise in accordance with Borrower's instructions.

Collections applied to the payment of Obligations shall be distributed in accordance with the aforementioned provisions, and, giving effect to each of the priorities set forth above in this Section 2.2(a), shall be shared ratably (within each priority) among the Agent and the Lenders in accordance with the amount of such Obligations owing to each of them in respect of each such priority.

Section 2.3 Collections Following Amortization.

On each day on which any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2 are not satisfied, the Amortization Date and each day thereafter, the Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust, for the Secured Parties, all Collections received on such day. On and after the Amortization Date, the Servicer shall, on each Settlement Date and on each other Business Day specified by the Agent (after deduction of any accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee as of such date): remit to the Agent's Account the amounts set aside pursuant to the preceding two sentences, and apply such amounts to reduce the Obligations as follows:

first, to the reimbursement of the Agent's costs of collection and enforcement of this Agreement,

second, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid CP Costs, Interest and Broken Funding Costs,

third, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid fees under the Fee Letter,

fourth, to the ratable reduction of Aggregate Principal,

fifth, for the ratable payment of all other unpaid Obligations, and

sixth, after the Obligations have been indefeasibly reduced to zero, to Borrower.

Collections applied to the payment of Obligations shall be distributed in accordance with the aforementioned provisions, and, giving effect to each of the priorities set forth above in this Section 2.3, shall be shared ratably (within each priority) among the Agent and the Lenders in accordance with the amount of such Obligations owing to each of them in respect of each such priority.

Section 2.4 Payment Rescission.

No payment of any of the Obligations shall be considered paid or applied hereunder to the extent that, at any time, all or any portion of such payment or application is rescinded by application of law or judicial authority, or must otherwise be returned or refunded for any reason. Borrower shall remain obligated for the amount of any payment or application so rescinded, returned or refunded, and shall promptly pay to the Agent (for application to the Person or Persons who suffered such rescission, return or refund) the full amount thereof, plus Interest on such amount at the Default Rate from the date of any such rescission, return or refunding.

Article III

Blue Ridge Funding

Section 3.1 CP Costs.

Borrower shall pay CP Costs with respect to the principal balance of Blue Ridge's Loans from time to time outstanding. Each Loan of Blue Ridge that is funded with Pooled Commercial Paper will accrue CP Costs each day on a pro rata basis, based upon the percentage share that the principal in respect of such Loan represents in relation to all assets held by Blue Ridge and funded substantially with related Pooled Commercial Paper.

Section 3.2 Calculation of CP Costs.

Not later than the 3^rd Business Day immediately preceding each Monthly Reporting Date, Blue Ridge shall calculate the aggregate amount of CP Costs applicable to its CP Rate Loans for the Calculation Period then most recently ended and shall notify Borrower of such aggregate amount.

Section 3.3 CP Costs Payments.

On each Settlement Date, Borrower shall pay to the Agent (for the benefit of Blue Ridge) an aggregate amount equal to all accrued and unpaid CP Costs in respect of the principal associated with all CP Rate Loans for the Calculation Period then most recently ended in accordance with Article II.

Section 3.4 Default Rate.

From and after the occurrence of (i) a Servicer Replacement Event, (ii) a Servicer Default or (iii) a Downgrading Event with respect to the Servicer, and during the continuance of (iv) an Amortization Event (other than as a result of a voluntary termination of either (x) the facility evidenced by this Agreement or (y) the facility evidenced by the Receivables Sale Agreement, except if in either case another Amortization Event has occurred or thereafter occurs), all Loans of Blue Ridge shall accrue Interest at the Default Rate and shall cease to be CP Rate Loans. With respect to clause (iv) above, the Agent will promptly notify Borrower of any Amortization Event with respect to which it intends to assess additional interest at the Default Rate; provided, however, that any failure to provide any such notice shall not prevent any such Loan from accruing interest at the Default Rate for the period during which such Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing.

Article IV

Liquidity Bank Funding

Section 4.1 Liquidity Bank Funding.

Prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the outstanding principal balance of each Liquidity Funding shall accrue interest for each day during its Interest Period at either the LIBO Rate or the Alternate Base Rate in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Until Borrower gives notice to the Agent of another Interest Rate in accordance with Section 4.4, the initial Interest Rate for any Loan transferred to the Liquidity Banks by Blue Ridge pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement shall be the Alternate Base Rate (unless the Default Rate is then applicable). If the Liquidity Banks acquire by assignment from Blue Ridge any Loan pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement, each Loan so assigned shall be deemed to have an Interest Period commencing on the date of any such assignment.

Section 4.2 Interest Payments.

On the Settlement Date for each Liquidity Funding, Borrower shall pay to the Agent (for the benefit of the Liquidity Banks) an aggregate amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Interest for the entire Interest Period of each such Liquidity Funding in accordance with Article II.

Section 4.3 Selection and Continuation of Interest Periods.

(a) With consultation from (and approval by) the Agent, Borrower shall from time to time request Interest Periods for the Liquidity Fundings, provided that if at any time any Liquidity Funding is outstanding, Borrower shall always request Interest Periods such that at least one Interest Period shall end on the date specified in clause (i) of the definition of Settlement Date.

(b) Borrower or the Agent, upon notice to and consent by the other received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the end of an Interest Period (the "Terminating Tranche") for any Liquidity Funding, may, effective on the last day of the Terminating Tranche: divide any such Liquidity Funding into multiple Liquidity Fundings, combine any such Liquidity Funding with one or more other Liquidity Fundings that have a Terminating Tranche ending on the same day as such Terminating Tranche or combine any such Liquidity Funding with a new Liquidity Funding to be made by the Liquidity Banks on the day such Terminating Tranche ends.

Section 4.4 Liquidity Bank Interest Rates.

Borrower may select the LIBO Rate or the Alternate Base Rate for each Liquidity Funding. Borrower shall by 12:00 noon (New York time): at least three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the LIBO Rate is being requested as a new Interest Rate and at least one (1) Business Day prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the Alternate Base Rate is being requested as a new Interest Rate, give the Agent irrevocable notice of the new Interest Rate for the Liquidity Funding associated with such Terminating Tranche. Until Borrower gives notice to the Agent of another Interest Rate, the initial Interest Rate for any Loan transferred to the Liquidity Banks pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement shall be the Alternate Base Rate (unless the Default Rate is then applicable).

Section 4.5 Suspension of the LIBO Rate.

(a) If any Liquidity Bank notifies the Agent that it has determined that funding its Pro Rata Share of the Liquidity Fundings at a LIBO Rate would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive of any governmental or regulatory authority, whether or not having the force of law, or that such LIBO Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost of acquiring or maintaining a Liquidity Funding at such LIBO Rate, then the Agent shall suspend the availability of such LIBO Rate and require Borrower to select the Alternate Base Rate for any Liquidity Funding accruing Interest at such LIBO Rate.

(b) If less than all of the Liquidity Banks give a notice to the Agent pursuant to Section 4.5(a), each Liquidity Bank which gave such a notice shall be obliged, at the request of Borrower, Blue Ridge or the Agent, to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to another Liquidity Bank or another funding entity nominated by Borrower or the Agent that is an Eligible Assignee willing to participate in this Agreement through the Liquidity Termination Date in the place of such notifying Liquidity Bank; provided that the notifying Liquidity Bank receives payment in full, pursuant to an Assignment Agreement, of all Obligations owing to it (whether due or accrued), and the replacement Liquidity Bank otherwise satisfies the requirements of Section 12.1(b).

Section 4.6 Default Rate.

From and after the occurrence of (i) a Servicer Replacement Event, (ii) a Servicer Default or (iii) a Downgrading Event with respect to the Servicer, and during the continuance of (iv) an Amortization Event (other than as a result of a voluntary termination of either (x) the facility evidenced by this Agreement or (y) the facility evidenced by the Receivables Sale Agreement, except if in either case another Amortization Event has occurred or thereafter occurs), all Liquidity Fundings shall accrue Interest at the Default Rate. With respect to clause (iv) above, the Agent will promptly notify Borrower of any Amortization Event with respect to which it intends to assess additional interest at the Default Rate; provided, however, that any failure to provide any such notice shall not prevent any such Liquidity Funding from accruing interest at the Default Rate for the period during which such Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing.

Article V

Representations and Warranties

Section 5.1 Representations and Warranties of the PPL Electric Parties.

Each PPL Electric Party hereby represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders, as to itself, as of the date hereof, as of the date of each Advance and as of each Settlement Date that:

(a) Status. Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has taken no action in connection with, or in contemplation of, changing its jurisdiction of formation to any other jurisdiction. The Servicer is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Each such PPL Electric Party has the corporate authority to make and perform this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party. This Agreement and each Transaction Document to which such PPL Electric Party is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such PPL Electric Party.

(b) Legality; Etc. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such PPL Electric Party, in each case enforceable against such PPL Electric Party in accordance with their terms except to the extent limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or reorganization laws, or by other laws relating to or affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles which may limit the right to obtain equitable remedies regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding of law or equity or (ii) any applicable public policy on enforceability of provisions relating to contribution and indemnification.

(c) Authority; No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance by such PPL Electric Party of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action and (i) do not violate any provision of law or regulation, or any decree, order, writ or judgment, (ii) do not violate any provision of its articles of incorporation or by-laws, or (iii) result in the breach of or constitute a default under any indenture or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party and do not result in the creation of or imposition of any Adverse Claim (other than as created by the Transaction Documents) on any of the assets of such PPL Electric Party or its Subsidiaries, except, in any such case, where such contravention could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No transaction contemplated hereby requires compliance with any bulk sales act or similar law.

(d) Governmental Approvals. No authorization, consent or approval from any Governmental Authority is required for the execution, delivery and performance by such PPL Electric Party of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, except such authorizations, consents and approvals, including, without limitation, the PUC Order, as have been obtained prior to the date hereof and are in full force and effect.

(e) Litigation. No litigation, arbitration or administrative proceeding against Borrower is pending, or to Borrower's knowledge, threatened, which, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in or contemplated by PPL Electric's Form 10-K Report to the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2003, or in any subsequent Form 10-K, 10-Q or 8-K Report or otherwise furnished in writing to the Agent, no litigation, arbitration or administrative proceeding against PPL Electric is pending, or to PPL Electric's knowledge, threatened, which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Borrower to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. There is no litigation, arbitration or administrative proceeding pending, or to the knowledge of such PPL Electric Party, threatened, which could have a material adverse effect on the legality, validity or enforceability of the Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, on the Agent's security interest, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Receivables generally or in any significant portion of the Receivables, the Related Security or the Collections with respect thereto, or the collectability of the Receivables generally or of any material portion of the Receivables.

(f) Accuracy of Information. All information, certificates and statements heretofore furnished by such PPL Electric Party or any of its Affiliates to the Agent or the Lenders for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, taken as a whole, and all such information, certificates and statements hereafter so furnished and taken as a whole, will be true, complete and accurate in all material respects on the date such information is stated or certified, except to the extent such information is stated to be as of an earlier date, and does not and will not contain any material misstatement of fact or omit to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which such information was furnished; provided, however, that to the extent any such information was based upon or constitutes a forecast or projection, such PPL Electric Party represents only that it acted in good faith and utilized reasonable assumptions and due care in the preparation of such information.

(g) No Violation. No part of the proceeds of any Advance hereunder will be used directly or indirectly for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any "margin stock" within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or for any other purpose which violates, or which conflicts with, the provisions of Regulation U or X of said Board of Governors. Borrower is not engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such "margin stock".

(h) Good Title. Borrower is the legal and beneficial owner of the Receivables and Related Security with respect thereto, free and clear of any Adverse Claim, except as created by the Transaction Documents. There have been duly filed all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect Borrower's ownership interest in each Receivable, its Collections and the Related Security.

(i) Perfection. This Agreement is effective to create a valid security interest in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the Collateral to secure payment of the Obligations, free and clear of any Adverse Claim except as created by the Transactions Documents. All actions necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions have been taken, including, without limitation, the filing of all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect the Agent's (on behalf of the Secured Parties) security interest in the Collateral. Borrower is a "registered organization" as defined in Article 9 of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York (the "NY UCC") and, for purposes of Article 9 of the NY UCC, is "located" in the State of Delaware.

(j) Places of Business and Locations of Records.

(b) So long as a Person is acting as the Servicer hereunder, such Person shall be and remain primarily liable to the Agent and the Lenders for the full and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of the Servicer hereunder and the Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to deal exclusively with such Person in matters relating to the discharge by the Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder. The Agent and the Lenders shall not be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any Person other than PPL Electric in order for communication to the Servicer and its sub-servicer or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished. The Servicer may not employ agents or delegate to any other Person any of its obligations hereunder except with the prior written consent of the Agent and, in any such case, the Servicer shall be responsible for all actions taken by any sub-servicer or other delegate of the Servicer.

(c) If (i) any Person is designated to replace PPL Electric as ITC Bonds Servicer under the ITC Bonds Servicing Agreement or (ii) any Governmental Authority shall act to replace PPL Electric as ITC Bonds Servicer or otherwise causes any transfer of all or any portion of the servicing duties or obligations under the ITC Bonds Servicing Agreement of PPL Electric to another Person in such a way as to materially reduce the scope of PPL Electric's duties as ITC Bonds Servicer under the ITC Bond Documents with respect to any of the ITC Receivables, then, such Person shall, provided such Person executes an amendment to this Agreement agreeing to undertake all duties of the Servicer hereunder on substantially the same terms and conditions (subject to such limitations on liability and to such indemnifications as are reasonably acceptable to the Agent and such successor Servicer) as PPL Electric has agreed to act as Servicer hereunder (including, without limitation, with respect to cost and scope of service provided), become the successor Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that if such Person does not so agree, then PPL Electric shall be deemed (effective as of the date such Person is designated as described in clause (i) or (ii) above, as applicable) to have resigned as Servicer hereunder and the Agent shall appoint a successor Servicer acceptable to the Agent. In addition, if the ITC Bond Documents are terminated for any reason (including upon repayment of the ITC Bonds), then, upon the occurrence of a Servicer Default, the Agent may designate as Servicer any Person acceptable to the Agent to succeed PPL Electric as Servicer.

Section 8.2 Duties of Servicer.

(d) The Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Practices, extend the maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as the Servicer determines to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or Defaulted Receivable or limit the rights of the Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement.

(e) The Servicer shall hold in trust for Borrower and the Lenders all Records that evidence or relate to the Receivables, the related Contracts and Related Security or are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the Receivables and shall, as soon as practicable upon demand of the Agent, make available to the Agent all such Records. The Servicer shall, subject to the first sentence of Section 8.2(b) hereof, as soon as practicable following receipt thereof turn over to Borrower any cash collections or other cash proceeds in accordance with Article II. The Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of any Lender, furnish to the Lenders (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts identified as Collections pursuant to Article II and Section 8.2(b).

(f) Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any indebtedness owed by it to Originator, other than indebtedness allocable to the ITC Receivables or the Nuclear Decommissioning Receivables, shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Agent, be applied as a Collection of any Receivable of such Obligor (starting with the oldest such Receivable) to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder before being applied to any other receivable or other obligation of such Obligor.

(g) In the event any payments relating to the Collateral are remitted directly to Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower, Borrower will remit (or will cause all such payments to be remitted) directly to a Collection Account within two (2) Business Days following receipt thereof, and, at all times prior to such remittance, Borrower will itself hold or, if applicable, will cause such payments to be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Agent and the Lenders.

(h) The Servicer hereby represents and warrants that it is maintaining all Collections solely in its capacity as Servicer, subject at all times to the ownership of the Borrower therein and the security interest therein of the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, that it retains bare legal title for the convenience of the parties hereto, and that such Collections are not intended to be or constitute property of the estate of the Servicer in any proceeding referenced in the definition of Event of Bankruptcy and are intended to constitute property of the type described in Section 541(d) of the Bankruptcy Code.

From and after the earliest to occur of an Amortization Event, a Downgrading Event with respect to the Servicer, a Servicer Default or a Servicer Replacement Event, the Servicer shall remit or cause to be remitted to the Agent, on each day, all Collections received on such day.

Section 8.4 Responsibilities of PPL Electric Parties.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Agent and the Lenders of their rights hereunder shall not release the Servicer, Originator or Borrower from any of their respective duties or obligations with respect to any Receivables or under the related Contracts. The Lenders shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of Borrower.

Section 8.5 Monthly Reports.

The Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Agent on each Monthly Reporting Date (and following the occurrence of any Amortization Event, Servicer Replacement Event, Downgrading Event with respect to the Servicer or a Servicer Default, at any time upon the request of the Agent) a Monthly Report and an electronic file of the data contained therein and at such times as the Agent shall request, a listing by Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables.

The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Amortization Event or Unmatured Amortization Event unless the Agent has received notice from a PPL Electric Party or a Lender.

Section 11.4 Reliance by Agent.

The Agent shall in all cases be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent.

Upon delivery of an executed Assignment Agreement to the Agent, such selling Liquidity Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Liquidity Agreement to the extent of such assignment. Thereafter the Purchasing Liquidity Bank shall for all purposes be a Liquidity Bank party to this Agreement and the Liquidity Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Liquidity Bank hereunder and thereunder to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto and thereto and no further consent or action by Borrower, the Lenders or the Agent shall be required.

(c) Each of the Liquidity Banks agrees that in the event that it shall become a Downgraded Liquidity Bank, such Downgraded Liquidity Bank shall be obliged, at the request of Blue Ridge or the Agent, to collateralize its Commitment and its Liquidity Commitment in a manner acceptable to the Agent, or assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder and under the Liquidity Agreement to an Eligible Assignee nominated by the Agent or a PPL Electric Party and acceptable to Blue Ridge and willing to participate in this Agreement and the Liquidity Agreement through the Liquidity Termination Date in the place of such Downgraded Liquidity Bank; provided that the Downgraded Liquidity Bank receives payment in full, pursuant to an Assignment Agreement, of an amount equal to such Liquidity Bank's Pro Rata Share of the Obligations owing to the Liquidity Banks.

(d) No PPL Electric Party may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agent and each of the Lenders and without satisfying the Rating Agency Condition.

Section 12.2 Participations.

Any Liquidity Bank may, in the ordinary course of its business at any time sell to one or more Persons (each, a "Participant") participating interests in its Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Commitment, its Loans, its Liquidity Commitment or any other interest of such Liquidity Bank hereunder or under the Liquidity Agreement. Notwithstanding any such sale by a Liquidity Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, such Liquidity Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Liquidity Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Liquidity Bank shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder and under the Liquidity Agreement, and the PPL Electric Parties, Blue Ridge and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Liquidity Bank in connection with such Liquidity Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Liquidity Agreement. Each Liquidity Bank agrees that any agreement between such Liquidity Bank and any such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not restrict such Liquidity Bank's right to agree to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to this Agreement, except for any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification described in Section 14.1(b)(i).

Miscellaneous

Section 14.1 Waivers and Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay on the part of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy.

(a) Borrower hereby authorizes the filing of each of the financing statements provided for in Schedule B hereto.

Each of the PPL Electric Parties hereby authorizes the Agent to file UCC financing statements and other filing or recording documents with respect to the Receivables and Related Security (including any amendments thereto, or continuation or termination statements thereof), without the signature or other authorization of such PPL Electric Party, in such form and in such offices as the Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect or maintain the perfection of the security interest of the Agent hereunder, acknowledges and agrees that it is not authorized to, and will not, file UCC financing statements or other filing or recording documents with respect to the Receivables or Related Security (including any amendments thereto, or continuation or termination statements thereof), without the express prior written approval by the Agent, consenting to the form and substance of such filing or recording document, and approves, authorizes and ratifies any filings or recordings made by or on behalf of the Agent in connection with the perfection of the security interests in favor of Borrower or the Agent.
