WHEREAS, to subject certain property of the Company located in Union County, Arkansas to the Lien of the Indenture, the Company executed and delivered the Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of April 1, 2016 to the Original Indenture, and the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth, Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth and Sixteenth Supplemental Indentures have been recorded in Union County, Arkansas.

WHEREAS, the Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture to establish the designation and certain terms of the Securities of the Nineteenth Series and has duly authorized the issuance of such Securities; and all acts necessary to make this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture a valid agreement of the Company, and to make the Securities of the Nineteenth Series valid obligations of the Company, have been performed.

NOW, THEREFORE, THIS SEVENTEENTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE WITNESSETH, that, in consideration of the premises and of the purchase of the Securities by the Holders thereof, and in order to secure the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Securities from time to time Outstanding and the performance of the covenants therein and herein contained, and to declare the terms and conditions on which such Securities are secured, the Company hereby grants, bargains, sells, conveys, assigns, transfers, mortgages, pledges, sets over and confirms to the Trustee, in trust, and grants to the Trustee a security interest in and lien on, the following (subject, however, to the terms and conditions set forth in this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture):

All right, title and interest of the Company, as of the Execution Date, or thereafter acquired, in and to all of the Company’s tangible electric and gas utility property located in the State of Louisiana (other than Excepted Property), whether real, personal or mixed, together with the Company’s franchises, permits and licenses that are transferable and necessary for the operation of such property and all easements and rights of way with respect to which the ownership interests of the Company have been recorded in the appropriate public records in the State of Louisiana;

All of the Company’s right, title, interest, as of March 1, 2016, or thereafter acquired, in and to all equipment and fixtures (other than Excepted Property) located on the Union Property (as such term is defined in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture to the Original Indenture), together with the Company’s franchises, permits and licenses that are transferable and necessary for the operation of such property and all easements and rights of way of the Company relating to such property with respect to which the ownership interests of the Company have been recorded in the appropriate public records in the State of Arkansas;

Any Excepted Property, which may, from time to time after the Execution Date, by delivery or by an instrument supplemental to the Indenture, be subjected to the Lien hereof by the Company, the Trustee being hereby authorized to receive the same at any time as additional security hereunder; it being understood that any such subjection to the Lien hereof of any Excepted Property as additional security may be made subject to such reservations, limitations or conditions respecting the use and disposition of such property or the proceeds thereof as shall be set forth in such instrument;

SUBJECT, FURTHER, to the condition that, with respect to any property which is now or hereafter becomes subject to the Lien of any Class A Mortgage, the Lien of the Indenture shall at all times be junior, subject and subordinate to the Lien of such Class A Mortgage;

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the right, title and interest of the Trustee in and to the Mortgaged Property shall cease, terminate and become void in accordance with, and subject to the conditions set forth in, Article Eight of the Indenture, and if the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Securities shall have been paid to the Holders thereof, or shall have been paid to the Company pursuant to Section 703 of the Indenture or to the appropriate Governmental Authority pursuant to applicable law after the Maturity thereof, then and in that case the Indenture shall terminate, and the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Company such instruments as the Company shall reasonably require to evidence such termination; otherwise the Indenture, and the estate and rights thereby granted, shall be and remain in full force and effect; and

Property is to be held, subject to the further covenants, conditions and trusts hereinafter set forth, and the Company hereby covenants and agrees to and with the Trustee, for the equal and ratable benefit of all holders of the Securities, as follows:

SECTION 101. The Securities of the Nineteenth Series shall be designated “Collateral Trust Mortgage Bonds, 0.95% Series due October 1, 2024,” shall be initially issued in the aggregate principal amount (except as contemplated by Section 301(b) of the Original Indenture) of $1,000,000,000, and shall have such forms and terms as are established for such Securities of the Nineteenth Series in an Officer’s Certificate of the Company pursuant to this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Sections 201 and 301 of the Original Indenture.

SECTION 102. Trustee to Hold Class A Bonds In New York. So long as any Securities of the Nineteenth Series remain Outstanding, the Trustee shall hold in the State of New York all Class A Bonds delivered to and to be held by it pursuant to Sections 1602 and 1701 of the Original Indenture; provided that the Trustee may hold such Class A Bonds in another jurisdiction if it receives an opinion of counsel to the effect that the perfection and priority of the security interest, if any, created by the last sentence of such Section 1701 will continue in such other jurisdiction.

SECTION 202. The recitals contained in this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness and makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture.

SECTION 203. Nothing in this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture, expressed or implied, is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or give to, any person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto and the Holders of the Securities Outstanding under the

Indenture, any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture or any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or agreement hereof, and all the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Seventeenth Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Company shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto, and of the Holders of the Securities Outstanding under the Indenture.
