The Company further covenants and agrees to and with the Trustee and its successor or successors in such trust under the Mortgage, as follows:
ARTICLE I
Sixty-third Series of Bonds
Sixty-third Series of Bonds
SECTION 1. There shall be a series of bonds designated “First Mortgage Bonds, 3.43% Series due 2049” (herein sometimes referred to as the “Bonds of the Sixty-third Series”), each of which shall also bear the descriptive title First Mortgage Bond and the form thereof is set forth on Exhibit D hereto. The Bonds of the Sixty-third Series shall be issued as fully registered bonds in denominations of One Thousand Dollars and, at the option of the Company, any amount in excess thereof (the exercise of such option to be evidenced by the execution and delivery thereof) and shall be dated as in Section 10 of the Original Mortgage provided.
(I) The Bonds of the Sixty-third Series shall have the following terms and characteristics:
(a) the Bonds of the Sixty-third Series shall be limited in aggregate principal amount to $180,000,000 (except for Bonds of such series authenticated and delivered upon transfer of or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Bonds of such series);
(b) the principal of Bonds of the Sixty-third Series shall (unless theretofore paid) be payable on the Stated Maturity Date (as hereinafter defined);

The interest on each Bond of the Sixty-third Series (other than interest payable at Maturity) shall be payable by check, in similar coin or currency, mailed to the registered owner thereof as of the close of business on the Record Date (as hereinafter defined) next preceding each Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if such registered owner shall be a securities depositary, such payment may be made by such other means in lieu of check as shall be agreed upon by the Company, the Trustee and such
5
registered owner; and, provided, further, that, so long as any Bond of the Sixty-third Series shall be held by (i) the original purchaser thereof under the Bond Purchase Agreement (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) any other Institutional Investor (as hereinafter defined) that (A) is the direct or indirect transferee of such Bond from such original purchaser and (B) has made the same agreement relating to such Bond as such original purchaser made in Section 8.2 of the Bond Purchase Agreement, payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Bond of the Sixty-third Series shall be payable in the manner specified in the Bond Purchase Agreement.

(A) 100% of the principal amount of the Bonds being redeemed and
(B) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Bonds being redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Bonds were stated to mature on the Par Call Date and excluding any portion of any scheduled payment of interest that accrued prior to the redemption date), discounted to the date of redemption on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at a discount rate equal to the Treasury Yield (as hereinafter defined) plus 50 basis points,
plus, in the case of either (A) or (B) above, whichever is applicable, accrued and unpaid interest on such Bonds to the date of redemption.
(ii) On or after the Par Call Date, the Bonds of the Sixty-third Series shall be redeemable in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Bonds being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Bonds to the date of redemption.
(f) “Par Call Date” means June 1, 2049.
(i) “Treasury Yield” means, with respect to any redemption of Bonds of the Sixty-third Series,
(A) the yield to maturity reported in the Statistical Release, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the Calculation Date, for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity with a term equal to the remaining term of such Bonds (assuming, for this purpose, that the Bonds were stated to mature on the Par Call Date), or
(B) if there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such remaining term, the yield to maturity determined by linear interpolation between (I) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity reported in the Statistical Release
6
with the term next longer than such remaining term and (II) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term next shorter than such remaining term.

(g) If less than all of the outstanding Bonds of the Sixty‑third Series are to be redeemed, the principal amount to be redeemed shall be prorated among all of the holders of such Bonds in the proportion that their respective holdings bear to the aggregate principal amount of such Bonds outstanding on the date of selection. The portion of any Bond to be redeemed shall be in the principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof and such rounding allocations as may be requisite for this purpose shall be made by the Trustee in its uncontrolled discretion.

The principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this bond payable at Maturity shall be payable to the registered owner hereof upon presentation hereof at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts. The interest on this bond (other than interest payable at Maturity) shall be paid by check, in the similar coin or currency, mailed to the registered owner hereof as of the close of business on the seventh Business Day (as defined in the Sixty-second Supplemental Indenture referred to below) preceding each Interest Payment Date (each such date being herein called a “Record Date”); provided, however, that if such registered owner shall be a securities depositary, such payment shall be made by such other means in lieu of check as shall be agreed upon by the Company, the Trustee and such registered owner; and provided further that, so long as this Bond shall be held by (a) the original purchaser hereof under the Bond Purchase Agreement (as defined in such Sixty-second Supplemental Indenture) or (b) any other Institutional Investor (as defined in such Supplemental Indenture) that (i) is the direct or indirect transferee of this bond from such original purchaser and (ii) has made the same agreement relating to this bond as such original purchaser made in Section 8.2 of the Bond Purchase Agreement, payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Bond shall be payable in the manner specified in the Bond Purchase Agreement. Interest payable at Maturity shall be paid to the person to whom principal shall be paid. As used herein, the term “Maturity” shall mean the date on which the principal of this bond becomes due and payable, whether at stated maturity, upon redemption or acceleration, or otherwise.
This bond is one of an issue of bonds of the Company issuable in series and is one of a series known as its First Mortgage Bonds, 3.43% Series due 2049, all bonds of all such series being issued and issuable under and equally secured (except insofar as any sinking or other fund, established in accordance with the provisions of the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may afford additional security for the bonds of any particular series) by a Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of June 1, 1939 (the “Original Mortgage”), executed by the Company (formerly known as The Washington Water Power Company) to City Bank Farmers Trust Company and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, as Trustees (Citibank, N.A., successor Trustee to both said Trustees). The Original Mortgage has been amended and supplemented by various supplemental indentures, including the Sixty-second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2019 (the “Sixty-second Supplemental Indenture”), and, as so amended and supplemented, is herein called the “Mortgage”. Reference is made to the Mortgage for a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the rights of the holders of the bonds and of the Trustee in respect thereof, the duties and immunities of the Trustee and the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are and are to be secured and the circumstances under which additional bonds may be issued. If there shall be a conflict between the terms of this bond and the provisions of the Mortgage, the provisions of the Mortgage shall control to the extent permitted by law. The holder of this bond, by its acceptance hereof, shall be deemed to have consented and agreed to all of the terms and provisions of the Mortgage and, further, in the event that such holder shall not be the sole beneficial owner of this bond, shall be deemed to have agreed to use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause all direct and indirect beneficial owners of this bond to have knowledge of the terms and provisions of the Mortgage and of this bond and to comply therewith, including particularly, but without limitation, any provisions or restrictions in the Mortgage regarding the transfer or exchange of such beneficial interests and any legend set forth on this bond.
D-3
The Mortgage may be modified or altered by affirmative vote of the holders of at least 60% in principal amount of the bonds outstanding under the Mortgage, considered as one class, or, if the rights of one or more, but less than all, series of bonds then outstanding are to be affected, then such modification or alteration may be effected with the affirmative vote only of 60% in principal amount of the bonds outstanding of the series so to be affected, considered as one class, and, furthermore, for limited purposes, the Mortgage may be modified or altered without any consent or other action of holders of any series of bonds. No modification or alteration shall, however, permit an extension of the Maturity of the principal of, or interest on, this bond or a reduction in such principal or the rate of interest hereon or any other modification in the terms of payment of such principal or interest or the creation of any lien equal or prior to the lien of the Mortgage or deprive the holder of a lien on the mortgaged and pledged property without the consent of the holder hereof. Each initial and subsequent holder of bonds of this series, by virtue of its acquisition of an interest therein, shall be deemed, without further act, to have consented to the prospective amendments to the Original Mortgage set forth in the Sixtieth Supplemental Indenture.
The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to the Stated Maturity Date on the conditions, in the manner and at the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a Completed Default as in the Mortgage provided.
As provided in the Mortgage and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this bond or any portion of the principal amount hereof will be deemed to have been paid if there has been irrevocably deposited with the Trustee moneys or direct obligations of or obligations guaranteed by the United States of America, the principal of and interest on which when due, and without regard to any reinvestment thereof, will provide moneys which, together with moneys so deposited, will be sufficient to pay when due the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this bond when due.
The Mortgage contains terms, provisions and conditions relating to the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into, and the conveyance or other transfer, or lease, of assets to, another corporation and to the assumption by such other corporation, in certain circumstances, of all of the obligations of the Company under the Mortgage and on the bonds secured thereby.
In the manner prescribed in the Mortgage, this bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof in person, or by his duly authorized attorney, at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, upon surrender and cancellation of this bond, together with a written instrument of transfer whenever required by the Company duly executed by the registered owner or by its duly authorized attorney, and, thereupon, a new fully registered bond of the same series for a like principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange herefor as provided in the Mortgage. The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this bond is registered as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment and for all other purposes.
In the manner prescribed in the Mortgage, any bonds of this series, upon surrender thereof for cancellation at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of bonds of the same series of other authorized denominations.

(a) the yield to maturity reported in the Statistical Release, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the Calculation Date, for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity with a term equal to the remaining term of such bonds (assuming, for this purpose, that the bonds of the series were stated to mature on the par Call Date), or
(b) if there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such remaining term, the yield to maturity determined by linear interpolation between (i) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity reported in the Statistical Release with the term next longer than such remaining term and (ii) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity reported in the Statistical Release with the term next shorter than such remaining term.
The Treasury Yield shall be rounded to two decimal places. The Treasury Yield shall be calculated as of the third Business Day preceding the earlier of (x) the date notice of redemption is mailed to holders of bonds of this series and (y) the date irrevocable arrangements with the Trustee for the mailing of such notice shall have been made, as the case may be (the “Calculation Date”).
“Statistical Release” means the daily statistical release entitled “H.15 Selected Interest Rates”, or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or any successor entity; or, if such Board of Governors no longer publishes the information contained in such statistical release, a publication containing similar information

published by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, or any successor or other U.S. governmental body.
Except as provided above, (a) the bonds of this series are not redeemable prior to the Stated Maturity Date and (b) no amount other than the principal of and interest on the bonds of this series shall be payable in respect of such bonds.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on this bond against any incorporator or any past, present or future subscriber to the capital stock, stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either directly or through the Company or any predecessor or successor corporation, under any rule of law, statute or constitution or by the enforcement of any assessment or otherwise, all such liability of incorporators, subscribers, stockholders, officers and directors being released by the holder or owner hereof by the acceptance of this bond and being likewise waived and released by the terms of the Mortgage.
