If any Interest Payment Date or the Stated Maturity shall not be a Business Day (as hereinafter defined), payment of the amounts due on this Security on such date may be made on the next succeeding Business Day; and, if such payment is made or duly provided for on such Business Day, no interest shall accrue on such amounts for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, to such Business Day.

This Security shall be redeemable at the option of the Company at any time prior to March 15, 2049 (which is the date that is six months prior to the Stated Maturity (herein called the “ Par Call Date ”)), in whole or in part, at a “make whole” redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount hereof to be redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on this Security to be redeemed that would be due if this Security matured on the Par Call Date (excluding the portion of any such accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the Redemption Date), discounted to but excluding the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the Redemption Date. At any time on or after the Par Call Date, the Securities shall be redeemable, in whole or in part, at 100% of the principal amount being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the Redemption Date. For purposes hereof, the following defined terms shall have the meaning ascribed to them:

“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 this Security (assuming for this purpose, that this Security matured on the Par Call Date) that would be utilized, 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 this Security.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means (i) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for the Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, or (ii) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for the Redemption Date, the average of all of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date.

 

EXHIBIT A-2

“Primary Treasury Dealer” means any primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) each of BMO Capital Markets Corp., BNP Paribas Securities Corp., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, for any Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by an 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 an Independent Investment Banker by the Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, for any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual 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 Treasury Rate for any Redemption Date shall be calculated on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of this Security may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Trustee to enter into one or more supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, the Indenture with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series then Outstanding under the Indenture, considered as one class; provided, however, that if there shall be Securities of more than one series Outstanding under the Indenture and if a proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the rights of the Holders of Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such series, then the consent only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so directly affected, considered as one class, shall be required; and provided, further, that if the Securities of any series shall have been issued in more than one Tranche and if the proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the rights of the Holders of Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such Tranches, then the consent only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all Tranches so directly affected, considered as one class, shall be required; and provided, further, that the Indenture permits the Trustee to enter into one or more supplemental indentures for limited purposes without the consent of any Holders of Securities. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

  Re:

$400,000,000 principal amount of Public Service Company of Colorado’s 4.05% First Mortgage Bonds, Series No. 33 due 2049

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for Public Service Company of Colorado, a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the issuance of $400,000,000 principal amount of the Company’s 4.05% First Mortgage Bonds, Series No. 33 due 2049 (the “Bonds”). The Bonds will be issued pursuant to the Company’s Indenture to U.S. Bank National Association (as successor to Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York) dated as of October 1, 1993 (the “Original Indenture”), and Supplemental Indenture No. 29 thereto dated as of March 1, 2019 (the “Supplemental Indenture”). The Original Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture and the previous supplemental indentures described in the Supplemental Indenture, is hereinafter referred to as the “Indenture”. The Bonds will be sold pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated March 6, 2019 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), by and between the Company and BMO Capital Markets Corp., BNP Paribas Securities Corp., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. (collectively, the “Underwriters”).

We have reviewed and relied upon such documents, records, certifications and instruments as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions and qualifications noted elsewhere in this opinion, we are of the opinion that the Bonds, when they are executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture and issued and delivered to the Underwriters against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, will be legal and binding obligations of the Company, subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent conveyance, voidable preference, receivership and other laws of general application affecting creditors’ rights and the rights of mortgagees and other secured parties generally and state laws which affect the enforcement of certain remedial provisions, (ii) general principles of equity, including without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith, fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, (iii) public policy considerations that may limit the rights of parties to obtain specific remedies or enforce specific terms, and (iv) governmental authority to limit, delay or prohibit the making of payments outside the United States.

We have relied as to certain relevant factual matters upon certificates of public officials and certificates of and/or information provided by officers and employees of the Company as to the accuracy of such factual matters without independent verification thereof or other investigation. We have also relied, without investigation, upon the following assumptions: (a) natural persons acting on behalf of the Company have sufficient legal capacity to enter into and perform, on behalf of the Company, the transaction in question or carry out their role in it, (b) each party to any instrument or agreement relevant hereto other than the Company has satisfied those legal requirements that are applicable to it to the extent necessary to make such instrument or agreement enforceable against it, (c) each party to any instrument or agreement relevant hereto other than the Company has complied with all legal requirements pertaining to its status as such status relates to its rights to enforce such instrument or agreement against the Company, (d) each document submitted to us for review is accurate and complete, each such document that is an original is authentic, each such document that is a copy conforms to an authentic original, and all signatures on each such document are genuine, (e) there are no agreements or understandings among the parties, written or oral, and there is no usage of trade or course of prior dealing among the parties that would, in either case, define, supplement or qualify the terms of any instrument or agreement relevant hereto, (f) all statutes, judicial and administrative decisions, and rules and regulations of governmental agencies, constituting the law of any relevant jurisdiction are generally available ( i.e. , in terms of access and distribution following publication or other release) both to lawyers practicing inside and to lawyers practicing outside such jurisdiction, and are in a format that makes legal research reasonably feasible, and (g) the constitutionality or validity of a relevant statute, rule, regulation or agency action is not in issue unless a published decision in the relevant jurisdiction has specifically addressed but not resolved, or has established, its unconstitutionality or invalidity.

Without limiting any other qualifications set forth herein, the opinions expressed herein are subject to the effect of generally applicable laws that (a) provide for the enforcement of oral waivers or modifications where a material change of position in reliance thereon has occurred or provide that a course of performance may operate as a waiver, (b) limit the enforcement of provisions of instruments or agreements that purport to require waiver of the obligations of good faith, fair dealing, diligence and reasonableness, (c) limit the availability of a remedy under certain circumstances where another remedy has been elected, (d) limit the enforceability of provisions releasing, exculpating or exempting a party from, or requiring indemnification of or contribution to a party for, liability for its own action or inaction, to the extent the action or inaction involves negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or unlawful conduct, (e) may, where less than all of an instrument or agreement may be unenforceable, limit the enforceability of the balance of the instrument or agreement to circumstances in which the unenforceable portion is not an essential part of the agreed exchange, (f) govern and afford judicial discretion regarding the determination of damages and entitlement to attorneys’ fees and other costs, (g) may permit a party who has materially failed to render or offer performance required by a contract to cure that failure unless either permitting a cure would unreasonably hinder the aggrieved party from making substitute arrangements for performance or it is important under the circumstances to the aggrieved party that performance occur by the date stated in the instrument or agreement, (h) may require mitigation of damages, and (i) provide a time limitation after which a remedy may not be enforced ( i.e. , statutes of limitation or repose).
