Item 8.01 Other Events.
On August 10, 2006, PacifiCorp (the Company) sold an aggregate principal amount of $350 million of 6.10% First Mortgage Bonds due August 1, 2036 (the Bonds) under its existing Mortgage and Deed of Trust (the Mortgage), dated January 9, 1989 (as amended and supplemented), between the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the Trustee). The Bonds were issued at an offering price of 99.674%. Accrued interest on the Bonds is payable on August 1 and February 1 of each year, commencing on February 1, 2007, until the principal amount of the Bonds is paid in full. The net proceeds from the sale of the Bonds will be used to repay short-term debt and for general corporate purposes.
The Bonds were issued pursuant to a Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture, by and between the Company and the Trustee, dated as of August 1, 2006 (the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture). The Bonds are secured by a first mortgage lien on certain of the Companys utility property, equally and ratably with all other bonds issued under the Mortgage.
The Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture further supplements the Mortgage. The Bonds are subject to the terms of the Mortgage as supplemented by the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture, including, without limitation, the provisions relating to Defaults and the acceleration of the Bonds upon the occurrence of a Default.
Defaults are defined in the Mortgage as: (1) default in payment of principal; (2) default for 60 days in payment of interest or an installment of any fund required to be applied to the purchase or redemption of any bonds; (3) default in payment of principal or interest with respect to certain prior lien bonds; (4) certain events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization; (5) default in other covenants for 90 days after notice; or (6) the existence of any default under a Class A Mortgage (as defined in the Mortgage) which permits the declaration of the principal of all the bonds secured by such Class A Mortgage and the interest accrued thereupon due and payable.
The foregoing discussion of the Bonds, the Mortgage and the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Mortgage, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto and incorporated into this Item 8.01 by reference, and the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2 and incorporated into this Item 8.01 by reference.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
(d) Exhibits
In reliance upon item 601(4)(iii) of Regulation S-K, a registration rights agreement related to the rights of the bondholders is not being filed because the Bonds do not exceed 10.0% of the total assets of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. The Company hereby agrees to furnish a copy of such agreement to the Commission upon request.

5
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
Thirty-First Series of Bonds
SECTION 1.01. There shall be a series of bonds designated 6.10% Series due August 1, 2036 (herein sometimes referred to as the Thirty-First Series), each of which shall also bear the descriptive title First Mortgage Bond, and the form of which shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.
(I) Bonds of the Thirty-First Series shall mature on August 1, 2036 and shall be issued as fully registered bonds in the denomination of two thousand dollars and, at the option of the Company, any multiple or multiples of one thousand dollars in excess of thereof (the exercise of such option to be evidenced by the execution and delivery thereof).
The Company reserves the right to establish, at any time, by or pursuant to a Resolution filed with the Trustee, a form of coupon bond, and or appurtenant coupons, for the Thirty-First Series and to provide for exchangeability of such coupon bonds with the bonds of the Thirty-First Series issued hereunder in fully registered form and to make all appropriate provisions for such purpose.
Bonds of the Thirty-First Series need not be issued at the same time and such series may be reopened at any time, without notice to or the consent of any then-existing holder or holders of any bond of the Thirty-First Series, for issuances of additional bonds of the Thirty-First Series in an unlimited principal amount. Any such additional bonds will have the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as those initially issued, except for payment of interest accruing prior to the original issue date of such additional bonds and for the first interest payment date following such original issue date.
(II) Bonds of the Thirty-First Series shall bear interest at the rate of 6.10% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year (each, an Interest Payment Date). Bonds of the Thirty-First Series shall be dated and shall accrue interest as provided in Section 2.06 of the Mortgage provided, that if a Registration Default (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs with respect to bonds of the Thirty-First Series, interest will accrue on such bonds at a rate of 0.5% per annum from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur, until but excluding the date on which all Registration Defaults have been cured, such additional interest to be paid to the same persons, in the same manner and at the same times as ordinary interest on the bonds of the Thirty-First Series. The Company shall give the Trustee prompt notice of the occurrence of a Registration Default and of any cure thereof.
The initial Interest Payment Date is February 1, 2007. The amount of interest payable will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. If any date on which interest is payable on any bond of the Thirty-First Series is not a Business Day, then payment of the interest payable on that date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any additional interest or other payment in respect of any delay), with the same force and effect as if made on such date.
Interest payable on any bond of the Thirty-First Series and punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date for such bond will be paid to the person in whose name the bond is registered at the close of business on the Record Date (as hereinafter specified) for such bond next preceding such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest payable at maturity or upon earlier redemption will be payable to the person to whom principal shall be payable. So long as the bonds of the Thirty-First Series remain in book-entry only form, the Record Date for each Interest Payment Date shall be the close of business on the Business Day before the applicable Interest Payment Date.

Cusip: [____________] |
PACIFICORP, an Oregon corporation (the Company ), for value received, hereby promises to pay to ___________, or registered assigns, on August 1, 2036, at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, the sum of ________________ [or such other principal amount as shall be set forth in the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Bond attached hereto]*, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time payment is legal tender for public and private debts, and to pay interest thereon from the August 1 or February 1 next preceding the date hereof, or if no interest has been paid on the bonds of this series, from ________, at the rate of six and ten hundredths per centum (6.10%) per annum, and shall pay Additional Interest, if any, payable pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement referred to below, in like coin or currency at such office or agency on August 1 and February 1 in each year (each, an Interest Payment Date ), commencing February 1, 2007, until the principal of this bond shall have been paid or duly provided for; provided that the interest so payable on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions set out in the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture (hereinafter mentioned), be paid to the person in whose name this bond (or any bond previously Outstanding in transfer or exchange for which this bond was issued) is registered on the Record Date next preceding such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest payable (including any Additional Interest) upon maturity or earlier redemption will be payable to the person to whom principal is payable. So long as this bond remains in book-entry only form, the Record Date for each Interest Payment Date will be the close of business on the Business Day before the applicable Interest Payment Date, and, if this bond is not in book-entry only form, the Record Date for each Interest Payment Date will be the close of business on the first calendar day of the month of the applicable Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day).
Business Day means a day other than (i) a Saturday or a Sunday, or (ii) a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to remain closed.
The amount of interest payable will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. If any Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, then payment of the interest payable on the date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any additional interest or other payment in respect of any delay), with the same force and effect as if made on the date.
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, 6.10% Series Due 2036 to be issued under and equally secured by a Mortgage and Deed of Trust (herein, together with any indenture supplemental thereto, including the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 10, 2006, the Mortgage ), dated as of June 9, 1989 executed by the Company to Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, as Trustee (JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., formerly known as The Chase Manhattan Bank, successor). 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, the circumstances under which additional bonds may be issued and the definitions of certain terms hereinafter used.
______________* Insert in Global Bonds.
27
With the consent of the Company and to the extent permitted by and in the manner provided in the Mortgage, the rights and obligations of the Company and/or the rights of the holders of the bonds and/or coupons and/or the terms and provisions of the Mortgage may be modified or altered by affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty per centum (60%) in principal amount of bonds then Outstanding under the Mortgage, all voting as a single class or, if the rights of the holders of one or more, but less than all, series of bonds then Outstanding are to be adversely affected, then by affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty per centum (60%) in principal amount of those bonds then Outstanding so to be adversely affected, all voting as a single class (excluding in any case bonds disqualified from voting by reason of the Companys interest therein as provided in the Mortgage); provided that no such modification or alteration shall, without the consent of the holder hereof, impair or affect the right of the holder to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this bond, on or after the respective due dates expressed herein, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective date, or permit the creation of any lien ranking equal or prior to the Lien of the Mortgage or deprive the holder of the benefit of a lien on the Mortgaged and Pledged Property or reduce the percentage vote required to effect such modifications or alterations.
The Company has reserved the right, without any consent or other action by holders of bonds of the Eighth Series known as First Mortgage and Collateral Trust Bonds, 6¾% Series due April 1, 2005, or any other series of bonds subsequently created under the Mortgage (including the bonds of this series), to amend the Mortgage in order to except from the Lien of the Mortgage allowances allocated to steam-electric generating plants owned by the Company, or in which the Company has interests, pursuant to Title IV of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 as now in effect or as hereafter supplemented or amended.
The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to the maturity date hereinbefore named on the conditions, in the manner and at the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a Default as in the Mortgage provided.
The bonds of this series are redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time and at the Companys option, at a redemption price equal to (A) the greater of (i) one hundred per centum (100%) of the principal amount of bonds of this series then Outstanding to be redeemed, or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate, plus 20 basis points, as calculated by an Independent Investment Banker; plus (B) accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date on which such bonds are to be redeemed (the Redemption Date ). Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the bonds of this series or portions thereof called for redemption.
For purposes of this Section 3:
Adjusted Treasury Rate means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated H.15(519) or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption Treasury Constant Maturities, for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Remaining Life, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Adjusted Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month); or if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. The Adjusted Treasury Rate will be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date.
Comparable Treasury Issue means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the bonds of this series to be redeemed that would be used, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such bonds (the Remaining Life ).
28
Comparable Treasury Price means with respect to any Redemption Date (1) the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.
Independent Investment Banker means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company and its successors, or if that firm is unwilling or unable to serve as such, an independent investment and banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company.
Reference Treasury Dealer means: (A) each of Lehman Brothers Inc. and Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc. and their respective successors; provided that, if either such entity ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (Primary Treasury Dealer), the Company will substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (B) up to two other Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Company.
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.
The Company shall give the Trustee notice of such redemption price immediately after the calculation thereof, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility for such calculation.
In addition to the rights provided to the holders of bonds under the Mortgage, holders of Restricted Global Bonds and Restricted Definitive Bonds will have all the rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement dated as August 10, 2006, among the Company and the other parties named on the signature pages thereof (the Registration Rights Agreement ).
This Bond is transferable as prescribed in the Mortgage by the registered owner hereof in person, or by his, her or its 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, if required by the Company, duly executed by the registered owner or by his, her or 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. Subject to the foregoing provisions as to the person entitled to receive payment of interest hereon, the Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this Bond is registered as the holder and the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
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 fully registered Bonds of the same series of other authorized denominations.
As provided in the Mortgage, the Company shall not be required to make transfers or exchanges of Bonds of any series for a period of fifteen (15) days next preceding any designations of Bonds of such series to be redeemed, and the Company shall not be required to make transfers or exchanges of any Bonds designated in whole or in part for redemption.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on this bond against any incorporator or any past, present or future subscriber to the capital stock, shareholder, 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, shareholders, 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.
29
This bond shall not become obligatory until JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as The Chase Manhattan Bank), a national banking association, the Trustee under the Mortgage, or its successor thereunder, shall have signed the form of authentication certificate endorsed hereon.
