CONSUMERS ENERGY COMPANY
FIRST MORTGAGE BOND
COLLATERAL SERIES DUE 2003
This bond is one of the bonds of a series designated as First Mortgage
Bonds, Collateral Series due 2003 (sometimes herein referred to as the "2003
Collateral Series Bonds") issued under and in accordance with and secured by an
Indenture dated as of September 1, 1945, given by the Company (or its
predecessor, Consumers Power Company, a Maine corporation) to City Bank Farmers
Trust Company (JPMorgan Chase Bank, successor) (hereinafter sometimes referred
to as the "Trustee"), together with indentures supplemental thereto, heretofore
or hereafter executed, to which indenture and indentures supplemental thereto
(hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Indenture") reference is hereby
made for a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and
extent of the security and the rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the
Trustee and the rights of the holders of said bonds and of the Trustee and of
the Company in respect of such security, and the limitations on such rights. By
the terms of the Indenture, the bonds to be secured thereby are issuable in
series which may vary as to date, amount, date of maturity, rate of interest and
in other respects as provided in the Indenture.
The 2003 Collateral Series Bonds are to be issued and delivered to the
Agent in order evidence and secure the obligation of the Company under the Loan
Agreement to make payments to the Banks under the Loan Agreement and to provide
the Banks the benefit of the lien of the Indenture with respect to the 2003
Collateral Series Bonds.
The obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the
principal of 2003 Collateral Series Bonds shall be fully or partially, as the
case may be, satisfied and discharged to the extent that, at the time that any
such payment shall be due, the then due principal of the Loans included in the
Obligations shall have been fully or partially paid. Satisfaction of any
obligation to the extent that payment is made with respect to the Loans means
that if any payment is made on the principal of the Loans, a corresponding
payment obligation with respect to the principal of the 2003 Collateral Series
Bonds shall be deemed discharged in the same amount as the payment with respect
to the Loans discharges the outstanding obligation with respect to such Loans.
The obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the
interest on 2003 Collateral Series Bonds shall be fully or partially, as the
case may be, satisfied and discharged to the extent that, at the time that any
such payment shall be due, the then due interest and/or fees on the Loans
included in the Obligations shall have been fully or partially paid.
Satisfaction of any obligation to the extent that payment is made with respect
to the Loans means that if any payment is made on the interest and/or fees on
the Loans, a corresponding payment obligation with respect to the interest on
the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds shall be deemed discharged in the
-7-
same amount as the payment with respect to the Loans discharges the outstanding
obligation with respect to such Loans.
The Trustee may at any time and all times conclusively assume that the
obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the principal of and
interest on this bond, so far as such payments at the time have become due, has
been fully satisfied and discharged unless and until the Trustee shall have
received a written notice from the Agent stating (i) that timely payment of
principal and interest on the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds has not been made,
(ii) that the Company is in arrears as to the payments required to be made by it
to the Agent pursuant to the Loan Agreement, and (iii) the amount of the
arrearage.
If an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement) with respect
to the payment of the principal of any Loans shall have occurred, it shall be
deemed to be a default for purposes of Section 11.01 of the Indenture in the
payment of the principal of the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds equal to the amount
of such unpaid principal (but in no event in excess of the principal amount of
the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds). If an Event of Default (as defined in the
Loan Agreement) with respect to the payment of interest on any Loans or fees
shall have occurred, it shall be deemed to be a default for purposes of Section
11.01 of the Indenture in the payment of the interest on the 2003 Collateral
Series Bonds equal to the amount of such unpaid interest or fees.
This bond is not redeemable except upon written demand of the Agent
following the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement and the
acceleration of the Obligations, as provided in Section 9.2 of the Loan
Agreement. This bond is not redeemable by the operation of the improvement fund
or the maintenance and replacement provisions of the Indenture or with the
proceeds of released property.
In case of certain defaults as specified in the Indenture, the
principal of this bond may be declared or may become due and payable on the
conditions, at the time, in the manner and with the effect provided in the
Indenture. The holders of certain specified percentages of the bonds at the time
outstanding, including in certain cases specified percentages of bonds of
particular series, may in certain cases, to the extent and as provided in the
Indenture, waive certain defaults thereunder and the consequences of such
defaults.
The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the
Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than seventy-five per
centum in principal amount of the bonds (exclusive of bonds disqualified by
reason of the Company's interest therein) at the time outstanding, including, if
more than one series of bonds shall be at the time outstanding, not less than
sixty per centum in principal amount of each series affected, to effect, by an
indenture supplemental to the Indenture, modifications or alterations of the
Indenture and of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the
holders of the bonds and coupons; provided, however, that no such modification
or alteration shall be made without the written approval or consent of the
holder hereof which will (a) extend the maturity of this bond or reduce the rate
or extend the time of payment of interest hereon or reduce the amount of the
principal hereof, or (b) permit the creation of any lien, not otherwise
permitted, prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Indenture, or (c) reduce
the percentage of the principal amount of the bonds the holders of which are
required to approve any such supplemental indenture.
-8-
The Company reserves the right, without any consent, vote or other
action by holders of the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds or any other series
created after the Sixty-eighth Supplemental Indenture to amend the Indenture to
reduce the percentage of the principal amount of bonds the holders of which are
required to approve any supplemental indenture (other than any supplemental
indenture which is subject to the proviso contained in the immediately preceding
sentence) (a) from not less than seventy-five per centum (including sixty per
centum of each series affected) to not less than a majority in principal amount
of the bonds at the time outstanding or (b) in case fewer than all series are
affected, not less than a majority in principal amount of the bonds of all
affected series, voting together.
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, to or against any incorporator, stockholder,
director or officer, past, present or future, as such, of the Company, or of any
predecessor or successor company, either directly or through the Company, or
such predecessor or successor company, or otherwise, under any constitution or
statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, or
otherwise, all such liability of incorporators, stockholders, directors and
officers, as such, being waived and released by the holder and owner hereof by
the acceptance of this bond and being likewise waived and released by the terms
of the Indenture.
This bond shall be exchangeable for other registered bonds of the same
series, in the manner and upon the conditions prescribed in the Indenture, upon
the surrender of such bonds at the Investor Services Department of the Company,
as transfer agent. However, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05 of
the Indenture, no charge shall be made upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of bonds of said series other than for any tax or taxes or other
governmental charge required to be paid by the Company.
The Agent shall surrender this bond to the Trustee when all of the
principal of and interest on the Loans arising under the Loan Agreement, and all
of the fees payable pursuant to the Loan Agreement, shall have been duly paid,
and the Loan Agreement shall have been terminated.

BUT IN TRUST, NEVERTHELESS, with power of sale for the equal and
proportionate benefit and security of the holders of all bonds now or hereafter
authenticated and delivered under and secured by the Indenture and interest

if any, and interest on every such bond shall, subject to the terms thereof, be
equally and proportionately secured, as if it had been made, executed,

and delivery thereof.
AND IT IS EXPRESSLY DECLARED by the Company that all bonds
authenticated and delivered under and secured by the Indenture, as supplemented
and amended as above set forth, are to be issued, authenticated and delivered,
and all said premises, property, franchises and rights hereby and by the
Indenture and indentures supplemental thereto conveyed, assigned, pledged or
mortgaged, or intended so to be, are to be dealt with and disposed of under,
upon and subject to the terms, conditions, stipulations, covenants, agreements,
trusts, uses and purposes expressed in the Indenture, as supplemented and
amended as above set forth, and the parties hereto mutually agree as follows:
SECTION 1. There is hereby created one series of bonds (the "2003
Collateral Series Bonds") designated as hereinabove provided, which shall also
bear the descriptive title "First Mortgage Bond", and the form thereof shall be
substantially as hereinbefore set forth (the "Sample Bond"). The 2003 Collateral
Series Bonds shall be issued in the aggregate principal amount of $300,000,000,
shall mature on July 11, 2003 and shall be issued only as registered bonds
without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any multiple thereof. The serial
numbers of the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds shall be such as may be approved by
any officer of the Company, the execution thereof by any such officer either
manually or by facsimile signature to be conclusive evidence of such approval.
The 2003 Collateral Series Bonds are to be issued to and registered in the name
of the Agent under the Loan Agreement (as such terms are defined in the Sample
Bond) to evidence and secure any and all Obligations (as such term is defined in
the Loan Agreement) of the Company under the Loan Agreement.
The 2003 Collateral Series Bonds shall bear interest as set forth in
the Sample Bond. The principal of and the interest on said bonds shall be
payable as set forth in the Sample Bond.
The obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the
principal of 2003 Collateral Series Bonds shall be fully or partially, as the
case may be, satisfied and discharged to the extent that, at the time that any
such payment shall be due, the then due principal of the Loans included in the
Obligations shall have been fully or partially paid. Satisfaction of any
obligation to the extent that payment is made with respect to the Loans means
that if any payment is made on the principal of the Loans, a corresponding
payment obligation with respect to the principal of the 2003 Collateral Series
Bonds shall be deemed discharged in the same
-11-
amount as the payment with respect to the Loans discharges the outstanding
obligation with respect to such Loans.
The obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the
interest on 2003 Collateral Series Bonds shall be fully or partially, as the
case may be, satisfied and discharged to the extent that, at the time that any
such payment shall be due, the then due interest and/or fees on the Loans
included in the Obligations shall have been fully or partially paid.
Satisfaction of any obligation to the extent that payment is made with respect
to the Loans means that if any payment is made on the interest and/or fees on
the Loans, a corresponding payment obligation with respect to the interest on
the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds shall be deemed discharged in the same amount
as the payment with respect to the Loans discharges the outstanding obligation
with respect to such Loans.
The Trustee may at any time and all times conclusively assume that the
obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the principal of and
interest on the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds, so far as such payments at the
time have become due, has been fully satisfied and discharged unless and until
the Trustee shall have received a written notice from the Agent stating (i) that
timely payment of principal and interest on the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds has
not been made, (ii) that the Company is in arrears as to the payments required
to be made by it to the Agent pursuant to the Loan Agreement, and (iii) the
amount of the arrearage.
The 2003 Collateral Series Bonds shall be exchangeable for other
registered bonds of the same series, in the manner and upon the conditions
prescribed in the Indenture, upon the surrender of such bonds at the Investor
Services Department of the Company, as transfer agent. However, notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 2.05 of the Indenture, no charge shall be made upon
any registration of transfer or exchange of bonds of said series other than for
any tax or taxes or other governmental charge required to be paid by the
Company.
SECTION 2. The 2003 Collateral Series Bonds are not redeemable by the
operation of the maintenance and replacement provisions of this Indenture or
with the proceeds of released property.
SECTION 3. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan
Agreement and the acceleration of the Obligations, the 2003 Collateral Series
Bonds shall be redeemable in whole upon receipt by the Trustee of a written
demand from the Agent stating that there has occurred under the Loan Agreement
both an Event of Default and a declaration of acceleration of the Obligations
and demanding redemption of the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds (including a
description of the amount of principal, interest and fees which comprise such
Obligations). The Company waives any right it may have to prior notice of such
redemption under the Indenture. Upon surrender of the 2003 Collateral Series
Bonds by the Agent to the Trustee, the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds shall be
redeemed at a redemption price equal to the aggregate amount of the Obligations.
SECTION 4. The Company reserves the right, without any consent, vote or
other action by the holder of the 2003 Collateral Series Bonds or of any
subsequent series of bonds issued under the Indenture, to make such amendments
to the Indenture, as supplemented, as shall be necessary in order to amend
Section 17.02 to read as follows:
-12-
SECTION 17.02. With the consent of the holders of not less
than a majority in principal amount of the bonds at the time
outstanding or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, or, if fewer
than all series are affected, not less than a majority in principal
amount of the bonds at the time outstanding of each series the rights
of the holders of which are affected, voting together, the Company,
when authorized by a resolution, and the Trustee may from time to time
and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental
hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any
manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any
supplemental indenture or modifying the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the holders of any of the bonds and coupons;
provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall (1) extend
the maturity of any of the bonds or reduce the rate or extend the time
of payment of interest thereon, or reduce the amount of the principal
thereof, or reduce any premium payable on the redemption thereof,
without the consent of the holder of each bond so affected, or (2)
permit the creation of any lien, not otherwise permitted, prior to or
on a parity with the lien of this Indenture, without the consent of the
holders of all the bonds then outstanding, or (3) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of the principal amount of bonds the holders of which are
required to approve any such supplemental indenture, without the
consent of the holders of all the bonds then outstanding. For the
purposes of this Section, bonds shall be deemed to be affected by a
supplemental indenture if such supplemental indenture adversely affects
or diminishes the rights of holders thereof against the Company or
against its property. The Trustee may in its discretion determine
whether or not, in accordance with the foregoing, bonds of any
particular series would be affected by any supplemental indenture and
any such determination shall be conclusive upon the holders of bonds of
such series and all other series. Subject to the provisions of Sections
16.02 and 16.03 hereof, the Trustee shall not be liable for any
determination made in good faith in connection herewith.
Upon the written request of the Company, accompanied by a
resolution authorizing the execution of any such supplemental
indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the
consent of bondholders as aforesaid (the instrument or instruments

each registered holder of bonds at the last address of such holder
appearing on the registry books, such publication or mailing, as the
case may be, to be made not less than thirty days prior to such
execution. Any failure of the Company to give such notice, or any
defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the
validity of any such supplemental indenture.

Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and the Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto shall be read, taken and construed as one and
the same instrument.

recitals and statements are made solely by the Company.
SECTION 8. This Supplemental Indenture may be simultaneously executed
in several counterparts and all such counterparts executed and delivered, each

be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with
