THE YORK WATER COMPANY


Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement .

On May 7, 2008, The York Water Company (“we” or “us”) entered into a loan agreement and a reimbursement, credit and security agreement, which are described in Item 2.03 of this report and are incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

Item 2.03
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On May 7, 2008, the Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority, or PEDFA, issued $12,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Exempt Facilities Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series A 2008 (the “bonds”) for our benefit pursuant to the terms of a Trust Indenture (the “indenture”), entered into on May 7, 2008 and dated as of May 1, 2008, between PEDFA and Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, as Trustee.  PEDFA then loaned the proceeds of the offering of the bonds to us pursuant to a Loan Agreement (the “loan agreement”), entered into on May 7, 2008 and dated as of May 1, 2008, between us and PEDFA.  The loan agreement provides for a $12,000,000 loan with a maturity date of October 1, 2029.  Amounts outstanding under the loan agreement are our direct general obligations. The proceeds of the loan were used to redeem PEDFA Exempt Facilities Revenue Bonds, Series B of 2004 issued by PEDFA on December 9, 2004.

Borrowings under the loan agreement bear interest at a variable rate as determined by PNC Capital Markets, as Remarketing Agent, on a periodic basis elected by us.  We have currently elected that the interest rate be determined on a weekly basis.  The Remarketing Agent determines the interest rate based on then current market conditions in order to determine the lowest interest rate which would cause the bonds to have a market value equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest thereon.

Pursuant to the indenture and the loan agreement, while the bonds bear interest at a weekly rate they are subject to redemption by PEDFA, upon our written request, in whole or in part at any time, in certain authorized denominations, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued interest, if any, to the redemption date.  Such redemption by PEDFA will be to the full extent of funds either made available for such purpose by us or already on deposit in the Trustee’s debt service fund.  In addition, if interest paid to bondholders pursuant to the indenture becomes taxable to them, the indenture may require PEDFA to redeem the bonds.  If redemption of the bonds is required pursuant to the provisions of the indenture, the agreement provides that we are to promptly make payments sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the bonds due on such redemption date.  As of May 7, 2008, the interest rate under the loan agreement was 2.61%.

The loan agreement further provides that, in the event we fail to make any of the payments required under the loan agreement, the item or installment so in default will continue as an obligation until the amount in default has been fully paid, and we will pay the same with interest thereon, to the extent permitted by law, from the date when such payment was due as provided in the indenture.  In addition, if, subsequent to a date on which we are obligated to make payments, losses are incurred in respect of any investments, or any other event has occurred causing the money in the debt service fund established under the indenture, together with any other money then held by the Trustee and available for the purpose, to be less than the amount sufficient at the time of such occurrence or other event to pay all debt service due and payable or to become due and payable on the bonds, the Trustee will notify us of such fact and thereafter we will pay to the Trustee for deposit in the debt service fund the amount of any such deficiency.  Furthermore, the loan agreement provides that, in the event payment of the principal of and the interest on the bonds is accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default under the indenture, all amounts payable under the loan agreement for the remainder of the term will become immediately due and payable.

The loan agreement contains certain covenants and provisions that affect us, including, without limitation, covenants and provisions that:

·  
restrict our ability to create or incur indebtedness (subject to enumerated exceptions);
 
·  
restrict our ability to create or incur certain liens on our property (subject to enumerated exceptions); and
 
·  
in certain limited circumstances, restrict our ability to declare or pay any dividends on any shares of our capital stock, purchase or redeem any shares of our capital stock or make any other payment or distribution in respect of our capital stock (subject to enumerated exceptions).
 
In order to keep variable interest rates down and to enhance the marketability of the bonds, we entered into a Reimbursement, Credit and Security Agreement with PNC Bank, National Association (the “bank”) dated as of May 1, 2008.  This agreement provides for a three-year direct pay letter of credit issued by the bank for our account authorizing the Trustee to make one or more draws on the bank up to an aggregate of $12,185,425 for the principal amount and accrued interest on the bonds.  This agreement holds the bank responsible for providing the Trustee with funds for the timely payment of the principal of and interest on the bonds and for the purchase price of the bonds that have been tendered or deemed tendered for purchase and have not been remarketed.  Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, we must reimburse the bank the same day as regular interest payments are made, and within fourteen months for the purchase price of tendered bonds that have not be remarketed.  The reimbursement period for the principal is immediate at maturity, upon default by us, or if the bank does not renew the letter of credit.  All payments due to the bank under this agreement bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum as set forth in the agreement.

The reimbursement, credit and security agreement contains certain covenants and provisions that affect us, including, without limitation, covenants and provisions that:

·  
require that we maintain a minimum equity to capitalization ratio of not less than 38%, as of the end of each fiscal quarter for the quarter then ending;
 
·  
require that we maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of not less than 1.80 to 1.00, as of the end of each fiscal quarter for the four quarters then ending;
 
·  
restrict our ability to create or incur certain liens on our property (subject to enumerated exceptions); and
 
·  
limit our ability to call the bonds for optional redemption.
 
A copy of the Loan Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report. A copy of the Trust Indenture relating to the bonds is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this report.  A copy of the Reimbursement, Credit and Security Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.3 to this report.

PARTICULAR AGREEMENTS
 
SECTION 6.1.   Indemnified Party's Release and Indemnification Provisions .
 
The Company agrees, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Loan Agreement and the Indenture shall be consummated:

(a)   to pay, and save the Indemnified Parties harmless against liability for the payment of, all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising in connection with said contemplated transactions, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Parties; and
 
(b)   to defend, protect, indemnify and save the Indemnified Parties harmless from and against all liability, losses, damages, costs, reasonable expenses (including reasonable counsel fees), taxes, causes of action, suits, claims, demands and judgments of any nature or form, by or on behalf of any Person arising in any manner from the transactions of which this Loan Agreement or the Indenture is a part or arising in any manner in connection with the Project, the Project Facilities or the financing or refinancing of the Project or the Project Facilities, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, arising from (i) the issuance, offering, sale, or delivery of the 2008A Bonds, the Indenture, the Underwriting Agreement and this Loan Agreement and the obligations imposed on the Issuer hereby and thereby and the Trustee's performance of its obligations under the Indenture; or the design, construction, installation, operation, use, occupancy, maintenance, or ownership of the Project and the Project Facilities; (ii) any written statements or representations made or given by the Company or any of its officers or employees to the Indemnified Parties or any underwriters or purchasers of any of the 2008A Bonds, with respect to the Issuer, the Company, the Project, the 2008A Bonds or the Underwriting Agreement, including, but not limited to, statements or representations of facts, financial information, or corporate affairs; (iii) damage to property or any injury to or death of any person that may be occasioned by any cause whatsoever pertaining to the Project or the Project Facilities; (iv) any breach or default on the part of the Company in the performance of any of its obligations under this Loan Agreement; (v) any violation of contract, agreement or restriction by the Company relating to the Project or Project Facilities; or (vi) any violation of law, ordinance or regulation by or permitted by the Company affecting the Project or Project Facilities or any part thereof or the ownership or occupancy or use thereof.

(i)   Payment of any Installment Loan Payment is not made when due and payable and such failure shall continue for one Business Day; or
 
(ii)   Payment of any amount due under this Loan Agreement other than Installment Loan Payments is not made when due and payable and such failure shall continue for fifteen (15) Business Days after the Trustee shall have given written notice to the Company specifying such default; or

(iv)   Default or the happening of any event shall occur under any indenture, agreement, or other instrument under which any Indebtedness of the Company for borrowed money may be issued and such default or event shall continue for a period of time sufficient to permit the acceleration of the maturity of any Indebtedness of the Company outstanding thereunder; or
 
(v)   Default shall occur in the observance or performance of any covenant or agreement contained in Sections 6.9 through 6.12 hereof;
 
(vi)   Subject to Section 6.1(c) of the Indenture relating to force majeure, failure by the Company to observe or perform any other covenant, condition or agreement on its part to be observed or performed under the Indenture or the Loan Agreement, other than as referred to in subsections (i) through (v) inclusive above, for a period of 60 days after written notice, specifying such failure and requesting that it be remedied, is given to the Company by the Issuer or the Trustee; provided, however, that if the failure stated in the notice is such that is can be remedied but not within such 60-day period, it shall not constitute an Event of Default if the default, in the judgment of the Trustee in reliance upon advice of counsel, is correctable without material adverse effect on the Bondholders and if corrective action is instituted by the Company, within such period and is diligently pursued until the default is remedied; or

SECTION 7.2.   Annulment of Acceleration .
 
If, in compliance with the requirements of Section 7.2 of the Indenture, the Trustee shall annul an acceleration declared due to any Event of Default under the Indenture, such annulment shall be deemed to also rescind any acceleration of all payments required under Section 5.4.  In case of any such annulment, or in case any proceeding taken by the Trustee on account of any such Event of Default shall have been discontinued or abandoned or determined adversely, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Company, the Trustee and the Registered Owners shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, but no such annulment shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

(b)   No remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Issuer, the Trustee, or the Registered Owners of the 2008A Bonds in this Loan Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.  No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission, or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.  In the event any provision contained in this Loan Agreement should be breached by the Company and thereafter duly waived, such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach of this Loan Agreement.  No waiver by any party of any breach by any other party of any of the provisions of this Loan Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach, whether of the same or of a different provision of this Loan Agreement.

The Company shall notify the Trustee and the Issuer in writing immediately if it becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder or of any fact, condition or event which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, would become an Event of Default.

Section 2.2.   Terms of the 2008A Bonds .
 
The 2008A Bonds shall be designated "Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority Exempt Facilities Revenue Refunding 2008A Bonds, Series A of 2008 (The York Water Company Project)" and shall be issuable only as fully registered 2008A Bonds without coupons in Authorized Denominations.  Unless the Issuer shall otherwise direct, the 2008A Bonds shall be numbered separately from 1 upward.  The 2008A Bonds shall be dated their date of delivery and shall mature, subject to prior redemption upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, on October 1, 2029.  Interest on the 2008A Bonds shall be determined as provided in Article IIA.  Interest on 2008A Bonds bearing interest at a Daily Rate, Weekly Rate or Monthly Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, for the number of days actually elapsed.  Interest on 2008A Bonds bearing interest at a Term Rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.  Notwithstanding any contrary provisions hereof, during any period in which a 2008A Bond is a Bank Bond, such 2008A Bonds shall bear interest at the Bank Rate, which shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months (unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and the Bank).  Each 2008A Bond shall bear interest (i) from the date of authentication, if authenticated on an Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or (ii) from the last preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or the Dated Date if no interest thereon has been paid) in all other cases.  Each 2008A Bond shall bear interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, and, to the extent permitted by law, on overdue interest at the rate of interest borne by the 2008A Bonds.

(a)   The 2008A Bonds shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached to this Indenture and made a part hereof, with appropriate insertions, deletions and modifications to reflect terms of the 2008A Bonds.  2008A Bonds authenticated and delivered while such 2008A Bonds are in the Daily Mode, Weekly Mode, Monthly Mode or Term Mode, as the case may be, shall set forth on the face side thereof, in the place provided for designating the interest rate, the word "Daily Rate", "Weekly Rate", "Monthly Rate" or "____% Term Rate for Term Rate Period ending ________, ___", respectively.
 
(b)   The 2008A Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer with the manual or facsimile signature of its Chairman, Executive Director, or the Deputy Secretary for Business Assistance, Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development (the "Deputy Secretary") and attested by the manual or facsimile signature of its Assistant Secretary, and shall have impressed or imprinted thereon the official seal of the Issuer or a facsimile thereof.  All authorized facsimile signatures shall have the same force and effect as if manually signed.  In case any official whose signature or a facsimile of whose signature shall appear on the 2008A Bonds shall cease to be such official before the delivery of such 2008A Bonds, such signature or such facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if such official had remained in office until delivery.
 
(c)   The 2008A Bonds shall be equally and ratably secured under the Indenture, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.  The 2008A Bonds, together with premium, if any, and interest thereon, shall be special, limited obligations of the Issuer secured by the Trust Estate and payable solely from the Revenues (except to the extent paid out of moneys attributable to the 2008A Bond proceeds or the income from the temporary investment thereof) and shall be a valid claim of the respective owners thereof only against the funds (except the Rebate Fund) and accounts established hereunder and other moneys held by the Trustee or Paying Agent and the Revenues, which Revenues shall be used for no other purpose than to pay the principal and purchase price of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the 2008A Bonds, except as may be otherwise expressly authorized in this Indenture.   The 2008A Bonds are limited obligations of the Issuer and are payable solely from amounts drawn under the Letter of Credit.  Neither the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania nor any political subdivision thereof is or shall be obligated to pay the principal or purchase price of or premium, if any, or interest on the 2008A Bonds, and the 2008A Bonds shall not be deemed an obligation of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any political subdivision thereof.  Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any political subdivision thereof is pledged to the payment of the principal or purchase price of or premium , if any, or the interest on the 2008A Bonds.  The Issuer has no taxing power.   All covenants, promises, agreements, duties and obligations of the Issuer set forth in the Financing Documents shall be solely the covenants, promises, agreements, duties and obligations of the Issuer and shall not be deemed to be, or be, the covenants, promises, agreements, duties or obligations of any member, officer, employee or agent of the Issuer or the Commonwealth in his or her individual capacity, and no recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, or interest on the 2008A Bonds or any other amount payable hereunder or in connection herewith, or for any claim based hereon or on the 2008A Bonds or the Loan Agreement, against any such member, officer, employee or agent in his or her individual capacity.
 
Section 2.6.   Authentication .
 
No 2008A Bonds shall be valid for any purpose hereunder until the certificate of authentication printed thereon is duly executed by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee, acting as authenticating agent.  Such authentication or registration shall be proof that the Registered Owner is entitled to the benefit of the trusts hereby created.  The certificate of the Trustee may be executed by any person authorized by the Trustee, and it shall not be necessary that the same authorized person sign the certificates of authentication of all 2008A Bonds.
 
Any 2008A Bond authenticated and delivered after the last Interest Payment Date preceding the termination of a Letter of Credit Facility shall have noted on the face thereof that the Letter of Credit Facility has expired and no longer supports payment of such 2008A Bond and any other information which the Issuer deems appropriate, unless an Alternate Credit Facility meeting the requirements of Section 2C.7 has been delivered in respect of such 2008A Bond.
 
Section 2.7.   Registration, Transfer and Exchange .
 
(a)   The ownership of each 2008A Bond shall be recorded in the registration books of the Issuer which shall be kept by the Trustee (the "Bond Register"), acting as Bond registrar, at its designated corporate trust operations office and shall contain such information as is necessary for the proper discharge of the duties of the Trustee hereunder.
 
(b)   2008A Bonds may be transferred or exchanged as follows:  Any 2008A Bond may be transferred if endorsed for such transfer by the Registered Owner thereof and surrendered by such Registered Owner or his duly appointed attorney to the Trustee at its designated corporate trust operations office, whereupon the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the transferee a new 2008A Bond or 2008A Bonds in the same denominations as the 2008A Bond surrendered for transfer or in different Authorized Denominations equal in the aggregate to the principal amount of the surrendered 2008A Bond.
 
(i)   Any 2008A Bond or 2008A Bonds may be exchanged for one or more 2008A Bonds and in the same principal amount, but in a different Authorized Denomination or Authorized Denominations.  Each 2008A Bond so to be exchanged shall be surrendered by the Registered Owner thereof or his duly appointed attorney to the Trustee at its designated corporate trust operations office, whereupon a new 2008A Bond or 2008A Bonds shall be authenticated and delivered to the Registered Owner.
 
(ii)   In the case of any 2008A Bond properly surrendered for partial redemption, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a new 2008A Bond in exchange therefor, such new 2008A Bond to be in an Authorized Denomination equal to the unredeemed principal amount of the surrendered 2008A Bond without cost to the Owner; provided that, at its option, the Trustee may certify the amount and date of partial redemption  upon the partial redemption certificate, if any, printed on the surrendered 2008A Bond and return such surrendered 2008A Bond to the Registered Owner in lieu of an exchange.
 
(iii)   No additional resolutions need be adopted by the governing body of the Issuer or any other body or person so as to accomplish the foregoing conversion and exchange or replacement of any 2008A Bond or portion thereof, and the Trustee shall provide for the completion, authentication, and delivery of the substitute 2008A Bonds in the manner prescribed herein.
 
Except as provided in subparagraph (iii) above, the Trustee shall not be required to effect any transfer or exchange during the fifteen (15) days immediately preceding the date of mailing of any notice of redemption or at any time following the mailing of any such notice in the case of 2008A Bonds selected for such redemption. No charge shall be imposed upon Registered Owners in connection with any transfer or exchange, except for taxes or governmental charges related thereto.  No transfers or exchanges shall be valid for any purposes hereunder except as provided above.
 
Section 2.8.   Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen 2008A Bonds .
 
(a)   If any 2008A Bond is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Registered Owner thereof shall be entitled to the issuance of a substitute 2008A Bond provided that:

(b)   Every 2008A Bond issued pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the 2008A Bond alleged to have been destroyed, lost or stolen shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other 2008A Bonds duly issued hereunder.
 
(c)   All 2008A Bonds shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen 2008A Bonds, and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies, unless expressly inconsistent with any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments, investments or other securities without their surrender.

(c)   Any interest on any 2008A Bond which is payable on any Interest Payment Date but is not paid or provided for on such date or within three Business Days thereafter (herein called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Owner on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Owner, and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid, pursuant to Section 7.10, to the Owner in whose name the 2008A Bond is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date to be fixed by the Trustee, such date to be not more than fifteen (15) nor less than five (5) days prior to the date of proposed payment.  The Paying Agent shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Bondholder, at his address as it appears in the Bond Register, not less than ten (10) days prior to such Special Record Date.

(e)   All 2008A Bonds issued hereunder are and are to be, to the extent provided in this Indenture, equally and ratably secured by this Indenture without preference, priority or distinction on account of the actual time or times of the authentication, delivery or maturity of the 2008A Bonds so that, subject as aforesaid, all 2008A Bonds at any time Outstanding hereunder shall have the same right, lien and preference under and by virtue of this Indenture and shall all be equally and ratably secured hereby with like effect as if they had all been executed, authenticated and delivered simultaneously on the date hereof, whether the same, or any of them, shall actually be disposed of at such date, or whether they, or any of them, shall be disposed of at some future date.
 
Section 2.10.   Temporary 2008A Bonds .

Section 2.13.   Book Entry System .
 
(a)   DTC will act as Securities Depository for the 2008A Bonds.  The 2008A Bonds shall be initially issued in the form of a single fully registered 2008A Bond registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee).  So long as Cede & Co. is the Registered Owner of the 2008A Bonds, as nominee of DTC, references herein to Registered Owners, Bondholders or holders or Owners of the 2008A Bonds shall mean Cede & Co. and shall not mean the beneficial owners of the 2008A Bonds.
 
(b)   The ownership interest of each of the Beneficial Owners of the 2008A Bonds will be recorded through the records of a DTC Participant.  Transfers of beneficial ownership interests in the 2008A Bonds which are registered in the name of Cede & Co. will be accompanied by book entries made by DTC and, in turn, by the DTC Participants who act on behalf of the Beneficial Owners of the 2008A Bonds.
 
(c)   With respect to 2008A Bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co., DTC’s partnership nominee, the Issuer and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any DTC Participant or to any person on behalf of whom such a DTC Participant holds an interest in the 2008A Bonds, except as provided in this Indenture.  Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Issuer and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of the records of DTC, Cede & Co. or any DTC Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the 2008A Bonds, (ii) the delivery to any DTC Participant or any other person, other than a Bondholder, as shown on the registration books, of any notice with respect to the 2008A Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or (iii) the payment to any DTC Participant or any other person, other than a Registered Owner, as shown in the registration books of any amount with respect to principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the 2008A Bonds.
 
(d)   Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture to the contrary, the Issuer and the Trustee shall be entitled to treat and consider the person in whose name each 2008A Bond is registered in the registration books as the absolute owner of such 2008A Bond for the purpose of payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to such 2008A Bond, for the purpose of giving notices of redemption and other matters with respect to such 2008A Bond, for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such 2008A Bond, and for all other purposes whatsoever.  The Trustee shall pay all principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the 2008A Bonds only to or upon the order of the respective owners, as shown in the registration books as provided in this Indenture, or their respective attorneys duly authorized in writing, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Issuer’s obligations with respect to payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the 2008A Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
 
(e)   No person other than a Registered Owner, as shown in the registration books, shall receive a 2008A Bond certificate evidencing the obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest, pursuant to this Indenture.
 
(f)   Any provision of this Indenture permitting or requiring the delivery of 2008A Bonds shall, while the book-entry system is in effect, be satisfied by the notation on the books of DTC or a DTC Participant, if applicable, of the transfer of the Beneficial Owner’s interest in such 2008A Bond.
 
(g)   So long as the book-entry system is in effect, the Trustee and the Issuer shall comply with the terms of the Letter of Representations, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B and made a part hereof, or an alternate Letter of Representations as required by DTC.
 
(h)   DTC may determine to discontinue providing its service with respect to the 2008A Bonds at any time by giving reasonable written notice and all relevant information on the Beneficial Owners of the 2008A Bonds to the Issuer or the Trustee.  If there is no successor Securities Depository appointed by the Issuer, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver 2008A Bonds to the Beneficial Owners thereof in accordance with the information respecting the Beneficial Owners provided to the Trustee by DTC, but without any liability on the part of the Issuer or the Trustee for the accuracy of such information.  The Issuer, at the direction of the Company, may determine not to continue participation in the system of book entry transfers through DTC (or a successor Securities Depository) at any time by giving reasonable written notice to DTC (or a successor Securities Depository) and the Trustee.  In such event, the Issuer shall execute and deliver to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the 2008A Bonds to the Beneficial Owners thereof in accordance with the information respecting the Beneficial Owners provided to the Trustee by DTC, but without any liability on the part of the Issuer or the Trustee for the accuracy of such information.
 
The Chairman, Executive Director or Deputy Secretary of the Issuer is hereby authorized to execute any additional Letter of Representations or similar document necessary from time to time to continue or provide for the DTC book-entry system.
 
(i)   Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 2.13 are subject to the provisions of Section 2B.5 hereof (relating to Pledged Bonds).
 
Section 2.14.   Payments to Cede & Co.; Payments to Beneficial Owners .
 
(a)   Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as any 2008A Bond is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, all payments with respect to principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, such 2008A Bond and all notices with respect to such 2008A Bond shall be made and given, respectively, pursuant to DTC’s rules and procedures.
 
(b)   Payments by the DTC Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with municipal securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such DTC Participant and not of DTC, the Trustee or the Issuer, subject to any statutory and regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.

(i)   if the Remarketing Agent fails for any reason to determine and notify the Paying Agent of the Weekly Rate for any Weekly Rate Period, such Weekly Rate shall be the same as the Weekly Rate in effect for the immediately preceding Weekly Rate Period, except that if such failure continues for more than one consecutive Weekly Rate Period, the Weekly Rate thereafter shall be 135% of the SIFMA Municipal Swap Index published for that Weekly Rate Period by Munifacts Wire System, Inc.

(b)   No notice of Weekly Rates will be given to the Company or the Owners of the 2008A Bonds; however, the Company and the Owners may obtain Weekly Rates from the Remarketing Agent.  All determinations of Weekly Rates pursuant to this Indenture shall be conclusive and binding upon the Issuer, the Company, the Bank, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Owners of the 2008A Bonds to which such rates are applicable.  The Issuer, the Company, the Bank, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Remarketing Agent shall not be liable to any Owner for failure to give any notice required with respect to Weekly Rates or for failure of any person to receive any such notice.

(i)   if the Remarketing Agent fails for any reason to determine and notify the Paying Agent of the Monthly Rate for any Monthly Rate Period, such Monthly Rate shall be the same as the Monthly Rate in effect for the immediately preceding Monthly Rate Period, except that if such failure continues for more than one consecutive Monthly Rate Period, the Monthly Rate thereafter shall be 135% of the 30-day tax-exempt commercial paper rate published for that Monthly Rate Period by Munifacts Wire System, Inc. (or a replacement publisher of a tax-exempt commercial paper rate designated in writing by the Issuer at the direction of the Company to the Trustee and the Remarketing Agent), representing, as of the publication date, the average of 30-day yield evaluations at par of tax-exempt securities rated by the Rating Service in its highest commercial paper rating category; provided that if Munifacts Wire System, Inc. or such replacement publisher does not publish such a tax-exempt commercial paper rate on a day on which a Monthly Rate is to be set, the Monthly Rate shall be 85% of the interest rate for 90-day taxable commercial paper (prime paper placed through dealers) announced on such day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; and
 
(ii)   in no event shall the Monthly Rate for any Monthly Rate Period exceed 12% per annum.
 
(b)   No notice of Monthly Rates will be given to the Registered Owners of the 2008A Bonds; however, such Owners may obtain Monthly Rates from the Remarketing Agent.  All determinations of Monthly Rates pursuant to the Indenture shall be conclusive and binding upon the Issuer, the Company, the Bank, the , the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registered Owners of the 2008A Bonds to which such rates are applicable.  The Issuer, the Company, the Bank, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Remarketing Agent shall not be liable to any Registered Owner for failure to give any notice required with respect to Monthly Rates or for failure for any person to receive such notice.
 
Section 2A.4.   Term Rate .
 
(a)   A Term Rate shall be determined for each Term Rate Period as described below.  Upon conversion to a Term Mode, a Nominal Term Rate Period shall be fixed by the Company pursuant to Section 2A.5 as a term of two or more Semiannual Periods constituting the nominal length of each Term Rate Period thereafter until the date of a conversion to another Rate Mode.  Each Term Rate shall be determined by the Remarketing Agent on the Term Rate Calculation Date as the lowest rate of interest which, in the judgment of the Remarketing Agent taking into account Prevailing Market Conditions, would be necessary to enable the Remarketing Agent to arrange for the sale of the 2008A Bonds in the Term Mode in a secondary market sale at a price equal to the principal amount thereof on the first Business Day of the Term Rate Period; provided that (1) if the Remarketing Agent fails for any reason to determine the Term Rate for any Term Rate Period, such Term Rate shall be equal to 90% of the average of the annual 2008A Bond equivalent yield evaluations at par as provided by the Remarketing Agent as of the first day of the corresponding Term Rate Period or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next preceding Business Day, of United States Treasury obligations having a term to maturity similar to such Term Rate Period, and (2) in no event shall any Term Rate for any Term Rate Period exceed 12% per annum or, if a Letter of Credit Facility is in effect, the maximum interest rate set forth in the Reimbursement Agreement for Pledged Bonds.  Notice of each Term Rate shall promptly be given by telephone (promptly confirmed in writing) by the Remarketing Agent to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Company, the Bank and the Paying Agent.  Determinations of Term Rates pursuant to this Section shall be conclusive and binding upon the Issuer, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Bank and the Owners.
 
Section 2A.5.   Conversion at Option of Company .
 
(a)   The Company shall have the option to convert all (but not less than all) of the 2008A Bonds from one Rate Mode to another Rate Mode (including without limitation a conversion from one Term Mode to another Term Mode) as herein provided on any Conversion Date the Company shall select; provided that (i) each Conversion Date shall be an Interest Payment Date and (ii) 2008A Bonds in a Term Mode cannot be converted to another Rate Mode prior to the date on or after which such 2008A Bonds may first be redeemed at the option of the Company at the redemption price of par.  The Company may exercise its option to convert the 2008A Bonds regardless of the number of times such 2008A Bonds have previously been converted pursuant to the exercise of its option to convert.  The Company shall exercise such option by giving written notice to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Remarketing Agent, the Bank, and the Paying Agent stating its election to convert the Rate Mode of the 2008A Bonds to another Rate Mode specified in such notice and stating the Conversion Date therefor, in the case of 2008A Bonds in the Daily Mode or Weekly Mode, not less than 35 days, and in the case of 2008A Bonds in the Monthly Mode or Term Mode, not less than 45 days, prior to such Conversion Date (or such shorter time as may be agreed to by the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Remarketing Agent).  Such notice also shall state whether or not the 2008A Bonds to be converted will be covered by a Letter of Credit Facility following such conversion.  Upon receipt of such notice by the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively assume that the Issuer, the Remarketing Agent, the Bank, and the Paying Agent also received a copy of such notice and that such condition has been complied with.  In connection with each conversion to a Term Mode, the Nominal Term Rate Period shall be selected by the Company and designated in such notice.
 
(b)   The exercise of an option to convert shall not be effective unless there shall have been delivered to the Trustee:

(ii)   in the case of a conversion to a Term Mode, if a Letter of Credit Facility is in effect, unless the Company elects not to provide a Letter of Credit Facility for the 2008A Bonds following the Conversion Date, an amendment to the Letter of Credit Facility securing the 2008A Bonds to be converted or an Alternate Credit Facility which provides for (i) an Expiration Date not earlier than the first to occur of (A) the first anniversary of the Conversion Date or (B) the Term Rate Period End Interest Payment Date of the first Term Rate Period following the Conversion Date, and (ii) coverage of 193 days' accrued interest on the 2008A Bonds at a rate not less than the interest rate at which the then current Letter of Credit Facility for such 2008A Bonds provides coverage, subject to adjustment on the Conversion Date to the actual Term Rate as the same shall be fixed immediately prior to the Conversion Date (or evidence satisfactory to the Trustee and the Bank that the current Letter of Credit Facility provides for sufficient coverage without an amendment thereto);
 
(iii)   in the case of a conversion to the Daily Mode, Weekly Mode or Monthly Mode if the 2008A Bonds are covered by a Letter of Credit Facility, unless the Company elects not to provide a Letter of Credit Facility for the 2008A Bonds following the Conversion Date, an amendment to the Letter of Credit Facility or an Alternate Credit Facility which provides for (i) an Expiration Date not earlier than one year from the Conversion Date of such conversion and (ii) on and after such Conversion Date, coverage for 47 days' accrued interest on the 2008A Bonds at a maximum rate of 12% per annum (or evidence satisfactory to the Trustee and the Bank that the current Letter of Credit Facility provides for sufficient coverage without an amendment thereto); and
 
(iv)   in the case of a conversion to a Term Mode, evidence that the Company has complied with the continuing disclosure requirements of SEC Rule 15c2-12 or any successor rule or statutory provision unless the Company provides the Trustee with an opinion of Counsel to the effect that such compliance is not required.
 
(c)   In the case of any conversion, the Trustee shall give notice by first class mail (postage prepaid) to the Owners of the 2008A Bonds being converted, in the case of 2008A Bonds in the Daily Mode or Weekly Mode, not less than 20 days, and in the case of 2008A Bonds in the Monthly Mode or Term Mode,  not less than 30 days, prior to the proposed Conversion Date stating (i) that, in the case of a conversion to a Term Mode, the current Rate Mode of such 2008A Bonds is scheduled to be converted to a Term Mode and the Nominal Term Rate Period of such Term Mode, or in the case of a conversion to the Daily Mode, Weekly Mode or Monthly Mode, the interest rate on such 2008A Bonds is scheduled to be converted to the Daily Mode, Weekly Mode or Monthly Mode, (ii) the proposed Conversion Date, (iii) that the Company, on or before the date three (3) days prior to the proposed Conversion Date, may determine not to convert such 2008A Bonds in which case the Trustee shall notify the Owners in writing to such effect, and (iv) that all Outstanding 2008A Bonds will be subject to a mandatory purchase on the Conversion Date, or, if such Conversion Date is not a Business Day, the first Business Day following such Conversion Date, at a price of par plus accrued interest (if any).  The Issuer, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Bank and the Remarketing Agent shall not be liable to any Owner for failure to give any notice required above or for failure of any Owners to receive such notice.  Upon each conversion under this Section, all 2008A Bonds being converted shall be subject to mandatory purchase pursuant to Section 2B.2 on the Conversion Date, or, if such Conversion Date is not a Business Day, the first Business Day following such Conversion Date.
 
(d)   On or before the date three (3) days prior to the proposed Conversion Date, the Company may determine not to convert the 2008A Bonds proposed to be converted to a new Rate Mode pursuant to its election to convert given under Section 2A.5(a) by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Remarketing Agent, the Bank and the Paying Agent (with a copy to the Issuer).  In such event (i) the 2008A Bonds shall not be converted to the new Rate Mode but shall remain in the current Rate Mode and (ii) the Owners of the 2008A Bonds shall nevertheless be required to tender their 2008A Bonds for mandatory purchase pursuant to Section 2B.2.

The Company by its execution of the Loan Agreement covenants to restrict the investment of money in the funds created under this Indenture in such manner and to such extent, if any, as may be necessary, after taking into account reasonable expectations at the time the 2008A Bonds are delivered to their original purchaser, so that the 2008A Bonds will not constitute arbitrage 2008A Bonds under Section 148 of the Code and the Regulations, and the Trustee hereby agrees to comply with the Company’s written instructions with respect to the investment of money in the funds created under this Indenture so long as such instructions conform to the requirements of the Indenture.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not direct the Trustee to make investments under this Indenture that conflict with or exceed the limitations set forth in the Tax Documents.  The Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to the compliance by the Company or the Issuer with respect to any covenant herein regarding investments made in accordance with this Article, other than to use its best reasonable efforts to comply with instructions from the Company regarding such investments.  Since the investments permitted by this Section have been included at the request of the Company and the making of such investments will be subject to the Company’s written direction, the Issuer and the Trustee specifically disclaim and shall not have any obligation to the Company for any loss arising from, or tax consequences of, investments pursuant to the provisions of this Section.  Confirmations are not required from the Trustee for permitted investments included in a monthly statement rendered by the Trustee, and no statement need be rendered by the Trustee for any fund or account if no investment or income accrual activity occurred in such fund or account during such month.

The Trustee shall provide such information as the Company may reasonably request in writing to enable the Company to calculate the amount of earnings on the moneys held under this Indenture.
 
Section 4.3.   Covenants Regarding Tax Exemption .
 
The Issuer covenants to refrain from any action which would adversely affect, or to take such action as is reasonable and available and within its control to assure, the treatment of the 2008A Bonds as obligations described in Section 103(a) of the Code, the interest on which is not included in the "gross income" of the holder (other than the income of a "substantial user" of the Project Facilities or a "related person" within the meaning of Section 147(a) of the Code) for purposes of federal income taxation.

Section 5.4.   Purchase in Lieu of Redemption .
 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may elect to purchase from the Owners any 2008A Bonds that have been called for redemption under Section 5.6 hereof on the redemption date by giving the Trustee and the Issuer written notice at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date the 2008A Bonds are to be redeemed.  The principal amount of 2008A Bonds to be redeemed on the applicable redemption date shall be reduced by the amount of 2008A Bonds so purchased.  With respect to (i) 2008A Bonds which have been called for redemption under Section 5.7 hereof, the Company (or any Person acting on its behalf) cannot remarket such 2008A Bonds as tax exempt 2008A Bonds until the Company delivers to the Issuer and the Trustee an opinion of Bond Counsel that the interest on the 2008A Bonds to be remarketed is not includable in the gross income of the owners or Beneficial Owners thereof for federal income tax purposes except for interest on any 2008A Bond for any period during which such 2008A Bond is owned by a person who is a "substantial user" of the Project Facilities or any person considered to be related to such person within the meaning of Section 147(a) of the Code, or (ii) any 2008A Bonds called for redemption under Section 5.6 hereof, the Company (or any Person acting on its behalf) cannot remarket such 2008A Bonds until the Company delivers to the Issuer and the Trustee an opinion of counsel that none of the 2008A Bonds or the Loan Agreement are subject to registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

If (a) unconditional notice of redemption has been duly given or duly waived by the Owners of all 2008A Bonds called for redemption or (b) conditional notice of redemption has been so given or waived and the moneys have been duly deposited with the Paying Agent sufficient to make such redemption, then in either such case the 2008A Bonds called for redemption shall be payable on the redemption date at the applicable redemption price.  Payment of the redemption price together with accrued interest (if any) shall be made by the Paying Agent, out of Available Moneys, to or upon the order of the Owners of the 2008A Bonds called for redemption upon surrender of such 2008A Bonds to the Payment Office of the Paying Agent.  Upon the payment of the redemption price of 2008A Bonds being redeemed, each check or other transfer of funds issued for such purpose shall bear the CUSIP number, if any, identifying by issue and maturity, the 2008A Bonds being redeemed with the proceeds of such check or other transfer.  So long as a Letter of Credit Facility is held by the Paying Agent for 2008A Bonds, upon redemption of less than all of the 2008A Bonds pursuant to this Indenture, the Paying Agent shall take such action as may be permitted under the Letter of Credit Facility securing the 2008A Bonds to reduce the amount available thereunder as required by Section 2C.3, and, upon a redemption of all of the Outstanding 2008A Bonds pursuant to this Indenture, shall surrender the Letter of Credit Facility securing the 2008A Bonds to the Bank for cancellation.
 
Any 2008A Bond which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a place stated for the surrender of 2008A Bonds called for redemption in the notice provided for in Section 5.2 (with due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Paying Agent duly executed by, the Owner thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing and with guaranty of signatures satisfactory to the Paying Agent) and the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Owner of such 2008A Bond without service charge, a new 2008A Bond or 2008A Bonds, of the same series in any Authorized Denomination as requested by such Owner in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the 2008A Bond so surrendered.
 
Section 5.6.   Optional Redemption .
 
(a)   While the 2008A Bonds are in the Daily Mode, Weekly Mode or Monthly Mode, the 2008A Bonds may be redeemed by the Issuer, at the direction of the Company, in whole at any time or in part on any Interest Payment Date, prior to maturity at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest (if any) to the redemption date.
 
(b)   While the 2008A Bonds are in a Term Mode, the 2008A Bonds shall be subject to optional redemption prior to maturity by the Issuer, at the direction of the Company, only (i) in whole or in part on a Term Rate Period End Interest Payment Date at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest (if any) to the redemption date or (ii) prior to the end of the then current Term Rate Period in whole at any time or in part on any Interest Payment Date, provided that the 2008A Bonds shall not be redeemable during the No Call Period shown below, which shall begin on the first day of the current Term Rate Period.  In each Term Rate Period, after the applicable No Call Period, the 2008A Bonds shall be redeemable at the percentage of their principal amount shown below in the Initial Premium column plus accrued interest (if any) to the redemption date.  The premium shall decline semiannually by the amount shown below in the Semiannual Reduction in Premium column until they shall be redeemable without premium in the year indicated in the No Premium After column and for any later years or periods in the respective Term Rate Period.

(c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.6: (i) 2008A Bonds which are in a Term Mode for a Term Rate Period of less than six years shall not be subject to optional redemption; and (ii) the Issuer may only call 2008A Bonds for any redemption pursuant to this Section 5.6 if the Paying Agent has moneys constituting (or which, in the case of a conditional call pursuant to Section 5.2(c) are expected to constitute) Available Moneys sufficient to effect such redemption.
 
Section 5.7.   Special Mandatory Redemption .
 
The 2008A Bonds are subject to Special Mandatory Redemption prior to maturity not later than 180 days after the Company has notice or actual knowledge of the occurrence of a Determination of Taxability at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest, if any, to the redemption date, but such redemption shall only be effected with Available Moneys.  Any such Special Mandatory Redemption shall be in whole unless the Company delivers to the Trustee an opinion of Bond Counsel that redemption of a portion of the Outstanding 2008A Bonds would have the result that interest payable on the 2008A Bonds remaining Outstanding after such redemption would not be includable for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of any owner or Beneficial Owner of a 2008A Bond (other than an owner or Beneficial Owner who is a "substantial user" of the Project Facilities or a "related person" within the meaning of Section 147(a) of the Code and the applicable regulations thereunder), and in such event the 2008A Bonds or portions thereof (in Authorized Denominations) shall be redeemed at such times and in such amounts as Bond Counsel shall so direct in such opinion.
 
If the Trustee receives written notice from any Owner stating that (i) the Owner has been notified in writing by the Internal Revenue Service that it proposes to include the interest on any 2008A Bond in the gross income of such Owner for the reasons stated in the definition of "Determination of Taxability" set forth herein or any other proceeding has been instituted against such Owner which may lead to a Final Determination, and (ii) such Owner will afford the Company the opportunity to contest the same, either directly or in the name of the Owner, and until a conclusion of any appellate review, if sought, then the Trustee shall promptly give notice thereof to the Company and the Issuer and to the Owners of 2008A Bonds then Outstanding.  If the Trustee thereafter receives written notice of a Final Determination, the Trustee shall make demand for prepayment of the unpaid Installment Loan Payments under the Loan Agreement or necessary portions thereof from the Company and, only upon receipt of such prepayment constituting Available Moneys, give notice of the Special Mandatory Redemption of the appropriate amount of 2008A Bonds on the earliest practicable date within the required period of 180 days.  In taking any action or making any determination under this Section 5.1(b), the Trustee may rely on an opinion of counsel.

Section 8.11.   Fees, Charges and Expenses of Trustee .
 
Pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.5 and 8.3 of the Loan Agreement, the Trustee shall be entitled to be paid by the Company reasonable compensation for its services rendered hereunder and to reimbursement for its actual out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) necessarily incurred in connection therewith.  The Company may, without creating a default hereunder, contest in good faith the necessity for and the reasonableness of any such services and expenses after making payment therefor.  The Company, the Issuer and the Bondholders agree that the Trustee shall have a lien for the foregoing compensation, expenses and fees upon the Trust Estate (other than moneys held for the payment of particular 2008A Bonds whether or not such payment is then due and owing) and, upon an Event of Default hereunder, the Trustee shall have a right of payment prior to payment to the Bondholders on account of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any 2008A Bond as provided in Section 7.10 hereof.

(b)   Consent of All Bondholders .  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no supplement or amendment to this Indenture shall, without the consent of the Registered Owner of each Outstanding 2008A Bond so affected, (i) extend the maturity date of any 2008A Bond, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or extend or reduce the amount of any mandatory redemption requirement, or change the purchase provisions thereof, (ii) deprive such Registered Owner of the lien hereof on the Revenues pledged hereunder and on the Trust Estate, (iii) decrease the amounts payable by the Company under Section 6.4 of the Loan Agreement, (iv) reduce the aggregate principal amount of 2008A Bonds the Registered Owners of which are required to approve any such supplement or amendment to this Indenture, (v) increase the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of 2008A Bonds the Registered Owners of which are required to direct the Trustee to accelerate the maturity of the 2008A Bonds, or (vi) provide a privilege or priority of any 2008A Bond over any other 2008A Bond.
 
(c)   Effective Date of Amendment .  The Trustee shall establish a record date for purposes of approval of any such amendment or supplement described in subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 9.2, and shall cause notice of such record date and such proposed amendment to be given to the Owners in the same manner as notices of redemption are given by the Trustee.  Such notice shall briefly set forth the nature of the proposed amendment and shall state that copies thereof are on file at the designated office of the Trustee for inspection by all Registered Owners.  If, within sixty (60) days (or such longer period as shall be prescribed by the Company in a written notice to the Trustee and the Issuer) following the mailing of such notice, the Registered Owners of the requisite aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding 2008A Bonds at the time of the record date established for such purpose shall have consented to and approved such amendment, no Registered Owner of any 2008A Bond shall have any right to object to any of the terms and provisions contained therein, or the operation thereof, or in any manner to question the propriety of the execution thereof, or to enjoin or restrain the parties to such amendment from adopting the same or from taking any action pursuant to the provisions thereof.  Upon receipt of the consent of the Registered Owners of the requisite aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding 2008A Bonds, the Issuer and the Trustee may execute such amendment.
 
The consent of a Registered Owner shall be evidenced by an instrument executed by such Registered Owner, delivered to the Trustee, which instrument shall refer to the proposed amendment described in said notice and shall specifically consent to and approve such amendment.  Any consent given by a Registered Owner as of such record date shall be irrevocable for a period of six (6) months from the date such consent is given, and shall be conclusive and binding upon all future Registered Owners of the same 2008A Bond during such period.  Such consent may be revoked at any time after six (6) months from the date such consent was given by such Registered Owner or by a successor in title, by filing written notice thereof with the Issuer, the Company and the Trustee, but such revocation shall not be effective if the Registered Owners of the requisite aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding 2008A Bonds have, prior to the attempted revocation, consented to and approved such amendment.
 
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, no amendment to this Indenture which affects the rights or obligations of the Trustee shall be effective against the Trustee without its written consent.
 
Section 9.3.   Amendments to Loan Agreement .
 
The Loan Agreement may be amended by written agreement of the Issuer and the Company and with the written consent of the Trustee, provided that no amendment may be made which would adversely affect the rights of some but less than all Outstanding 2008A Bonds without the consent of (a) the Registered Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 2008A Bonds then Outstanding and (b) the Registered Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 2008A Bonds so affected; and no amendment may be made which would (i) decrease the amounts payable under the Loan Agreement as Installment Loan Payments; (ii) change any date of payment or prepayment provisions under the Loan Agreement; or (iii) change the amendment provisions of the Loan Agreement without the consent of all of the Registered Owners of the 2008A Bonds adversely affected thereby, and provided further that the Loan Agreement may be amended by written agreement of the Issuer and the Company and with the written consent of the Trustee, but not the Owners, in order to make conforming changes with respect to amendments made to this Indenture pursuant to Section 9.1(d), (e) or (f).
 
Section 9.4.   Right to Payment .
 
Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture to the contrary, the right of the Owner of any 2008A Bond to receive payment of the principal of, and the premium, if any, and interest on, such 2008A 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 dates, will not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Owner.
 
Section 9.5.   Amendment of Letter of Credit Facility .
 
If the Bank proposes to amend a Letter of Credit Facility, the Paying Agent may consent thereto, provided that (i) if such proposal would amend such Letter of Credit Facility in such a way as would materially adversely affect the interests of the Bondholders, the Paying Agent shall notify the Owners of the 2008A Bonds secured by such Letter of Credit Facility of the proposed amendment and may consent thereto only with the prior written consent of Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such 2008A Bonds then Outstanding, and (ii) the Paying Agent shall not, without the unanimous consent of all Bondholders, consent to any amendment which would decrease the amounts payable under the Letter of Credit Facility securing such 2008A Bonds in respect of Outstanding 2008A Bonds secured by such Letter of Credit Facility on any Interest Payment Date or on the date of redemption, acceleration, payment at maturity or purchase of the 2008A Bonds, or advance the stated expiration date of such Letter of Credit Facility to an earlier date.  No consent of the Bondholders shall be required for amendments to a Letter of Credit Facility which are provided for or contemplated by this Indenture.  The Paying Agent shall provide notice to the Issuer of any amendment to a Letter of Credit Facility.
 
Section 9.6.   Bank Consent .

DEFEASANCE
 
Section 10.1.   Defeasance .
 
If the Issuer or Company shall pay or cause to be paid, or there shall be otherwise paid or provision for payment made to or for the Owners from time to time of the 2008A Bonds, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest due or to become due thereon on the dates and in the manner stipulated therein, and shall pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums of money due or to become due according to the provisions hereof and if all other liabilities of the Company under the Loan Agreement and the Reimbursement Agreement shall have been satisfied, then these presents and the estate and rights hereby granted shall cease, determine and be void, whereupon the lien of this Indenture shall be canceled and discharged (except with respect to moneys held by the Trustee or Paying Agent hereunder for the payment of 2008A Bonds as aforesaid, and the rights and immunities of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Paying Agent hereunder), and upon written request of the Issuer or the Company, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Issuer such instruments in writing as shall be required by the Issuer or the Company to cancel and discharge the lien hereof and thereof, and reconvey, release, assign and deliver unto the Issuer and the Company, respectively, the estate, right, title and interest in and to any and all property conveyed, assigned or pledged to the Trustee or otherwise subject to the lien of this Indenture.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary, the Trustee and Paying Agent shall comply with the provisions of Section 8.19 hereof in connection with any final payment of all outstanding 2008A Bonds hereunder.
 
Any 2008A Bond shall be deemed to be paid within the meaning of this Section 10.1 when payment of the principal of, and premium and tender purchase price payments, if any, on such 2008A Bond, plus interest thereon to the due date thereof (whether such due date be by reason of maturity, upon redemption prior to maturity or upon optional or mandatory tender, as provided in this Indenture or otherwise), either (i) shall have been made or caused to be made in accordance with the terms thereof, or (ii) shall have been provided by irrevocably depositing with the Trustee, in trust for the benefit of and subject to a security interest in favor of the owner of such 2008A Bond, and irrevocably setting aside exclusively for such payment on such due date, (1) moneys sufficient to make such payment, or (2) Government Obligations maturing as to principal and interest in such amounts and on such dates as will (together with any moneys held under clause (1)), in the written opinion to the Trustee from a firm of certified public accountants not unsatisfactory to the Trustee, provide sufficient moneys without reinvestment to make such payment, and if all necessary and proper fees, compensation and expenses of the Trustee pertaining to the 2008A Bonds with respect to which such deposit is made and all other liabilities of the Company under the Loan Agreement and the Reimbursement Agreement shall have been paid or the payment thereof provided for to the satisfaction of the Trustee; provided , however , that (x) such amount on deposit described in (1) or (2) above shall be deemed sufficient only if (A) while the 2008A Bonds bear interest at a Daily Rate, Weekly Rate or Monthly Rate, it provides for payment of interest on the 2008A Bonds at the maximum rate of 12% per annum and the Issuer shall have surrendered any power hereunder to thereafter change such maximum rate applicable to such 2008A Bonds, or (B) while the 2008A Bonds bear interest at a Term Rate, it provides for payment of interest on the 2008A Bonds at the current Term Rate and the 2008A Bonds mature or are scheduled to be redeemed at or prior to the expiration of the current Term Rate Period, (y) in the opinion of Bond Counsel, delivered to the Trustee and the Issuer, such deposit of Government Obligations described in (2) above will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the 2008A Bonds or cause any of the 2008A Bonds to be classified as "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code, and (z) any 2008A Bond shall be deemed to be paid only if (A) the Trustee and the Paying Agent hold in the Debt Service Fund (or a separate escrow account) cash constituting Available Moneys and/or such obligations purchased with Available Moneys for payment of such 2008A Bonds pursuant to Section 3.2 above in amounts sufficient, together with the earnings thereon, to make all payments specified above with respect to such 2008A Bonds, as verified by an accountant's certification in form and by an accountant not unacceptable to the Trustee and the Rating Service, and (B) in the case of 2008A Bonds bearing interest at a Daily Rate, Weekly Rate or Monthly Rate, the 2008A Bonds have been called for redemption on a date not more than sixty (60) days from the date provision for payment is being made pursuant to this Section.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.1, if provision is to be made for the payment of all, or less than all, of the Outstanding 2008A Bonds, the Trustee shall have received written confirmation from the Rating Service that any then-current ratings on the 2008A Bonds will not be reduced or withdrawn.  At such time as a 2008A Bond shall be deemed to be paid hereunder, as aforesaid, it shall no longer be secured by or entitled to the benefits of this Indenture, except for the purposes set forth in Sections 2.7 and 2.8 hereof and any such payment from such moneys or Government Obligations on the date or dates specified at the time of such deposit.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of 2008A Bonds which are to be redeemed prior to the maturity date, no deposit under clause (ii) of the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed a payment of such 2008A Bonds as aforesaid until proper notice of redemption of such 2008A Bonds shall have been previously given in accordance with Article V hereof, or until the Company, on behalf of the Issuer, shall have given the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, irrevocable written instructions:
 
(a)   stating the redemption date when the principal (and premium, if any) of each such 2008A Bond is to be paid (which may be any redemption date permitted by this Indenture); and
 
(b)   to call for redemption pursuant to this Indenture any 2008A Bonds to be redeemed prior to the maturity date pursuant to (a) hereof.
 
In the case of 2008A Bonds which are not to be redeemed within the next succeeding sixty (60) days, the Trustee shall mail, as soon as practicable, in the manner prescribed by Article V hereof, a notice to the Owners of such 2008A Bonds that the deposit required by (ii) above has been made with the Trustee and that said 2008A Bonds are deemed to have been paid in accordance with this Section 10.1 and stating the redemption or maturity date upon which moneys are to be available for the payment of the redemption price on or principal of said 2008A Bonds.
 
Any moneys so deposited with the Trustee as provided in this Section 10.1 may at the written direction of the Company also be invested and reinvested in Government Obligations, maturing in the written opinion of a firm of certified public accountants delivered and not unsatisfactory to the Trustee in the amounts and on the dates as hereinbefore set forth, and all income from all Government Obligations in the hands of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 10.1 which, in the written opinion to the Trustee from a firm of certified public accountants not unsatisfactory to the Trustee, is not required for the payment of the 2008A Bonds and interest and premium, if any, thereon with respect to which such moneys are deposited, shall be deposited in the Debt Service Fund as and when collected for use and application as are other moneys deposited in that fund.
 
Anything in Article IX hereof to the contrary notwithstanding, if moneys or Government Obligations have been deposited or set aside with the Trustee pursuant to this Section 10.1 for the payment of the principal of, and premium and purchase price, if any, and interest on the 2008A Bonds and the principal of, and premium and purchase price, if any, and interest on such 2008A Bonds shall not have in fact been actually paid in full, no amendment to the provisions of this Section 10.1 shall be made without the consent of the Owner of each of the 2008A Bonds affected thereby.
 
If an agreement with a Securities Depository as described in Section 2.11 hereof is then in effect and such agreement provides for the Company to obtain a CUSIP number in the event of a partial refunding or redemption of the 2008A Bonds and the authentication of a new 2008A Bond for the refunded or redeemed 2008A Bonds, then the Company shall comply with the provisions of such agreement.
 
Section 10.2.   Effect of Defeasance .
 
Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary in this Article, no defeasance hereunder shall relieve the Trustee or the Paying Agent of any duty with respect to, or discharge or terminate the provisions hereof with respect to, the payment, transfer, purchase, exchange, registration or redemption of 2008A Bonds, as the case may be.
 
ARTICLE XI                                
 
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
 
Section 11.1.   Limitations on Recourse; Immunity of Certain Persons .
 
No recourse shall be had for any claim based on this Indenture or the 2008A Bonds against any past, present or future member, officer, official or employee of the Issuer, either directly or through the Issuer or any such successor body, under any constitutional provision, statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability and all such claims being hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issuance of the 2008A Bonds.  The 2008A Bonds are payable solely from the Revenues pledged hereunder and other moneys held by the Trustee hereunder for such purpose.  The Issuer shall be conclusively deemed to have complied with all of its covenants and other obligations hereunder, including but not limited to those set forth in Articles III and VI hereof, upon requiring the Company in the Loan Agreement to agree to perform such Issuer covenants and other obligations (excepting only any approvals or consents permitted or required to be given by the Issuer hereunder, and any exceptions to the performance by the Company of the Issuer’s covenants and other obligations hereunder, as may be contained in the Loan Agreement).  However, nothing contained in any such agreement in the Loan Agreement shall prevent the Issuer from time to time, in its discretion, from performing any such covenants or other obligations.  The Issuer shall have no liability for any failure to fulfill, or breach by the Company of, the Company’s obligations under the 2008A Bonds, this Indenture, the Loan Agreement, or otherwise, including without limitation the Company’s obligation to fulfill the Issuer’s covenants and other obligations under this Indenture.
 
Section 11.2.   Deposit of Funds for Payment of 2008A Bonds .
 
If the principal or redemption price of any 2008A Bonds becoming due, either at maturity or by call for redemption or otherwise, together with all interest accruing thereon to the due date, has been paid or provision therefor made in accordance with Section 10.1, all interest on such 2008A Bonds shall cease to accrue on the due date and all liability of the Issuer with respect to such 2008A Bonds shall likewise cease, except as hereinafter provided.  Thereafter the Owners of such 2008A Bonds shall be restricted exclusively to the funds so deposited for any claim of whatsoever nature with respect to such 2008A Bonds, and the Trustee shall hold such funds in trust for such owners.
 
Other than moneys held in the Letter of Credit Debt Service Account and the Letter of Credit Purchase Account which shall be distributed pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof, moneys which remain unclaimed two years after the due date shall, subject to any applicable provisions of law relating to escheat of property, at the written request of the Company, and if the Company is not, at the time, to the knowledge of the Trustee, in default with respect to any covenant in the Loan Agreement or the 2008A Bonds, be paid to the Company, and the owners of the 2008A Bonds for which the deposit was made shall thereafter be limited to a claim against the Company.  Such moneys while held by the Trustee shall be held in trust uninvested.  Before being required to make a payment to the Company under this Section 11.2, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive at the Company’s expenses an opinion of Counsel to the effect that such payment is permitted under the provisions of Pennsylvania law.  In the absence of any such written request from the Company, the Trustee shall from time to time deliver such unclaimed funds to or as directed by pertinent escheat authority, as identified by the Trustee in its sole discretion, pursuant to and in accordance with applicable unclaimed property laws, rules or regulations.  Any such delivery shall be in accordance with the customary practices and procedures of the Trustee and the escheat authority.  Any money held by the Trustee pursuant to this Section 11.2 shall be held uninvested and without any liability for interest.
 
Section 11.3.   No Rights Conferred on Others .
 
Nothing herein contained shall confer any right upon any Person other than the parties hereto, the Company and the Registered Owners of the 2008A Bonds.
 
Section 11.4.   Illegal, Etc. Provisions Disregarded .
 
If any term or provision of this Indenture or the 2008A Bonds or the application thereof for any reason or circumstances shall to any extent be held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions or the application of such term or provision to persons and situations other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision hereof and thereof shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
 
Section 11.5.   Substitute Publication of Notice .
 
If for any reason it shall be impossible to make publication of any notice required hereby in a newspaper or newspapers, then such publication in lieu thereof as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient publication of such notice.

(i)   All sums payable to the Bank under Section 2.02(a) shall bear interest, from the Drawing Date until such sums are paid in full (it being understood and agreed that any sum paid to the Bank after 3:00 p.m. on a Business Day shall bear interest as if it was paid at 9:00 a.m. on the next following Business Day), at a fluctuating rate per annum (computed for the actual number of days elapsed, based on a 360 day year) equal to the Base Rate; provided that any sum payable to the Bank under subparagraph (ii) (B) or (iii) of Section 2.02(a) which is outstanding in excess of five (5) days (the " Interest Trigger Date ") shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum (computed for the actual number of days elapsed, based on a 360 day year) equal to the lesser of (i) the Base Rate or (ii) LIBOR in effect on each Reset Date plus one and one half percent (1.5%), as determined by the Bank on the Interest Trigger Date, until such sum or interest and all other amounts due and payable under this Agreement have been paid in full.  Interest accruing pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) shall be due and payable on the first Business Day of each calendar month after the Drawing Date and on the date the respective sum is paid.  All payments under Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) shall be applied first to the payment of interest due and payable under this Section 2.02(b) and then to the reduction of the principal balance of sums due and payable under Section 2.02(a).

(c)   Closing Fee .  On the date of execution hereof, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank a closing fee of $5,000.
 
(d)   Commitment Fees .  On June 1, 2008 and monthly in arrears on the first day of each month thereafter so long as any credit remains available to the Trustee under the Letter of Credit and on the Expiration Date or in the event the Borrower obtains an Alternate Credit Facility, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank, upon receipt of the Bank's invoice therefor,  a Letter of Credit commitment fee (the " Letter of Credit Fee ") computed at the rate of three quarters of one percent (.75%) per annum on the average daily Letter of Credit Amount during the preceding month (or portion thereof in the case of the first such payment and in the case of a termination of the Letter of Credit on a day other than the last day of a month); provided that for purposes of computing such average daily Letter of Credit Amount the Letter of Credit Amount shall be treated as having been reinstated with respect to Interest Drawings on the day the Bank received reimbursement therefor, unless the Bank has given written notice to the Trustee pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Letter of Credit that such reinstatement shall not occur.  Computations of Letter of Credit commitment fees under this Section shall be for the actual number of days in the applicable period, based on a 360 day year.
 
(e)   Transaction and Transfer Charges and Expenses .  The Borrower shall pay to the Bank all reasonable transaction charges that the Bank may make for Drawings under the Letter of Credit, including without limitation a negotiation/payment fee of $100.  Such transaction charges shall be payable monthly at the same times as the fees described in Section 2.02(d) hereof are payable, upon submission to the Borrower by the Bank of the Bank's bill therefor.  In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank on demand any and all reasonable charges and expenses which the Bank may pay or incur relative to the Letter of Credit including without limitation a billing fee of $50 (not applicable if a direct deposit account of the Borrower is debited by the Bank), and an amendment fee of $100.  The Borrower shall pay to the Bank upon each transfer of the Letter of Credit in accordance with its terms a transfer fee equal to $500, together with any and all costs and expenses of the Bank incurred in connection with such transfer.
