There shall be a series of Securities designated "4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2007" of the Company, and the form thereof shall be substantially as set forth in Annex A hereto, which is incorporated into and shall be deemed a part of this First Supplemental Indenture, in each case with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by the Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or Depositary therefor or as may, consistently therewith, be determined by the officers of the Company executing such 2007 Notes, as evidenced by their execution of the 2007 Notes. SECTION 102 Global Securities; Certificated Securities; Paying Agent and Conversion Agent. (a) Issue of Global Securities. All of the 2007 Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Securities, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the 2007 Notes represented thereby with the Trustee, at its Corporate Trust Office, as custodian for the Depositary, The Depository Trust Company, and registered in the name of its nominee, Cede & Co., duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as provided in the Indenture. The aggregate principal amount of a Global Security may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Securities Custodian as hereinafter provided, subject in each case to compliance with the Applicable Procedures. (b) Global Securities in General. Each Global Security shall represent such of the Outstanding 2007 Notes as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding 2007 Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of Outstanding 2007 Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges, redemptions, purchases or conversions of such 2007 Notes.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall (A) prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or (B) impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any 2007 Note.

SECTION 204 Amendment of Article Seventeen of the Original Indenture.

"(e) (2) In case there shall be completed an Offer made by a Person other than the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or UtiliCorp United, Inc. for an amount that increases the offeror's ownership 10 14 of Common Stock to more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Common Stock outstanding and shall involve the payment by such Person of consideration per share of Common Stock having a fair market value that as of the last time (the "Offer Expiration Time") tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such Offer (as it shall have been amended) that exceeds the current market price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Time, and in which, as of the Offer Expiration Time, the Board of Directors is not recommending rejection of the Offer, the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Offer Expiration Time by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock, Limited Vote Common Stock and As-Converted Series A Preferred Shares outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged shares) at the Offer Expiration Time multiplied by the current market price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Time and the denominator of which shall be the sum of (x) the fair market value of the aggregate consideration payable to stockholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the Offer) of all shares validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the Offer Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the "Accepted Purchased Shares") and (y) the product of such number of shares outstanding (less any Accepted Purchased Shares) at the Offer Expiration Time and the current market price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Time, such reduction to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the Trading Day following the Offer Expiration Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the adjustment described in this clause (2) of subsection (e) shall not be made if, as of the Offer Expiration Time, the offering documents with respect to such Offer disclose a plan or intention to cause the Company to engage in any transaction described in Article Eight. "For purposes of this subsection (e), the fair market value of any consideration with respect to an Offer shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company (whose determination shall, if made in good faith, be conclusive evidence of such fair market value) and described in a Board Resolution. "In no case shall the Conversion Price be increased pursuant to this subsection (e). "(f) For the purpose of any computation under subsections (b), (c), (d) and (e) (1) above, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the Last Sale Prices of a share of Common Stock for the five consecutive Trading Days selected by the Company commencing not more than 20 Trading Days before, and ending not later than, the earlier of the date in question and the date before the "ex date," with respect to the issuance, distribution or Offer requiring such computation. For purposes of any computation under subsection (e)(2) above, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the Last Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for such day and each of the next two succeeding Trading Days. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "ex date," when used with respect to any issuance, distribution or payments with respect to an Offer, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the New York Stock Exchange (or if not listed or 11 15 admitted to trading thereon, then on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading) without the right to receive such issuance, distribution or Offer."

A "Fundamental Change" means any transaction or event in connection with which all or substantially all of the Common Stock of the Company is exchanged for, converted into, acquired for or constitutes solely the right to receive, consideration, whether by means of an exchange offer, liquidation, tender offer, consolidation, merger, combination, reclassification, recapitalization or 12 16 otherwise, which is not all or substantially all common stock listed on, or that will be listed on or immediately after the transaction or event on: (1) A United States national securities exchange, or (2) approved for quotation on the Nasdaq National Market or any similar United States system of automated dissemination of quotations of securities prices. (b) Within 10 days after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall mail a written notice of the Fundamental Change to the Trustee and to each Holder. The notice shall include the form of a Repurchase Notice to be completed by the Holder and shall state: (1) the date of such Fundamental Change and, briefly, the events causing such Fundamental Change; (2) the date by which the Repurchase Notice pursuant to this Section 1801 must be given; (3) the Repurchase Date; (4) the Repurchase Price; (5) briefly, the conversion rights of the 2007 Notes; (6) the name and address of each Paying Agent and Conversion Agent; (7) the Conversion Price and any adjustments thereto; (8) that 2007 Notes as to which a Repurchase Notice has been given may be converted into Common Stock pursuant to Article Seventeen only to the extent that the Repurchase Notice has been withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; (9) the procedures that the Holder must follow to exercise rights under this Section 1801; (10) the procedures for withdrawing a Repurchase Notice, including a form of notice of withdrawal; and (11) that the Holder must satisfy the requirements set forth in the 2007 Notes in order to convert the Securities. 13 17 If any of the 2007 Notes is in the form of a Global Security, then the Company shall modify such notice to the extent necessary to accord with the procedures of the Depositary applicable to the repurchase of Global Securities. (c) A Holder may exercise its rights specified in subsection (a) of this Section 1801 upon delivery of a written notice (which shall be in substantially the form included as an attachment to the 2007 Notes and which may be delivered by letter, overnight courier, hand delivery, facsimile transmission or in any other written form and, in the case of Global Securities, may be delivered electronically or by other means in accordance with the Depositary's customary procedures) of the exercise of such rights (a "Repurchase Notice") to any Paying Agent at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the Repurchase Date. The delivery of a 2007 Note to any Paying Agent (together with all necessary endorsements) at the office of such Paying Agent shall be a condition to the receipt by the Holder of the Repurchase Price therefor. The Company shall repurchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this Section 1801, a portion of a 2007 Note if the principal amount of such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to the repurchase of all of a 2007 Note pursuant to Sections 1801 through 1806 also apply to the repurchase of such portion of such 2007 Note. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to a Paying Agent the Repurchase Notice contemplated by this subsection (c) shall have the right to withdraw such Repurchase Notice in whole or as to a portion thereof that is a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the Repurchase Date by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 1802. A Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Repurchase Notice or written withdrawal thereof. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the case of Global Securities, any Repurchase Notice may be delivered or withdrawn and such 2007 Notes may be surrendered or delivered for repurchase in accordance with the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary as in effect from time to time. (d) The Company shall not be required to offer to repurchase any 2007 Notes pursuant to this Section 1801 after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change if a third party shall make such offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in 14 18 compliance with the requirements applicable to a repurchase offer made following a Fundamental Change pursuant to this Article Eighteen and purchases all 2007 Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such offer. SECTION 1802. Effect of Repurchase Notice. Upon receipt by any Paying Agent of the Repurchase Notice specified in Section 1801(c), the Holder of the 2007 Notes in respect of which such Repurchase Notice was given shall (unless such Repurchase Notice is withdrawn as specified below) thereafter be entitled to receive the Repurchase Price with respect to such 2007 Notes. Such Repurchase Price shall be paid to such Holder promptly following the Repurchase Date (provided the conditions in Section 1801(c) have been satisfied). Any 2007 Notes in respect of which a Repurchase Notice has been given by the Holder thereof may not be converted into Common Stock on or after the date of the delivery of such Repurchase Notice unless such Repurchase Notice has first been validly withdrawn or unless the Company shall default on the payment of the Repurchase Price, in which case such 2007 Notes will continue to be convertible. A Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn by means of a written notice (which may be delivered by letter, overnight courier, hand delivery, facsimile transmission or in any other written form and, in the case of Global Securities, may be delivered electronically or by other means in accordance with the Depositary's customary procedures) of withdrawal delivered by the Holder to a Paying Agent at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Date, specifying the principal amount of the 2007 Note or portion thereof (which must be a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted. SECTION 1803. Deposit of Repurchase Price.

The manner in which the deposit required by this Section 1803 is made by the Company shall be at the option of the Company, provided, however, that such deposit shall be made in a manner such that the Trustee or a Paying Agent shall have immediately available funds on the Repurchase Date. 15 19 If a Paying Agent holds, in accordance with the terms hereof, money sufficient to pay the Repurchase Price of any 2007 Notes for which a Repurchase Notice has been validly tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with this Indenture then, on the Repurchase Date, such 2007 Notes will cease to be Outstanding and the rights of the Holder in respect thereof shall terminate (other than the right to receive the Repurchase Price as aforesaid), unless such payment is prohibited by Article Twelve hereof, in which case the 2007 Notes shall continue to accrue interest and be convertible until such prohibition no longer exists and the 2007 Notes are repurchased. The Company shall publicly announce the principal amount of 2007 Notes repurchased as a result of such Fundamental Change on or as soon as practicable after the Repurchase Date. SECTION 1804. Securities Purchased In Part. Any 2007 Note that is to be purchased only in part shall be surrendered at the office of a Paying Agent and promptly after the Repurchase Date the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such 2007 Note, without service charge, a new 2007 Note or 2007 Notes, of such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, the portion of the principal amount of the 2007 Note so surrendered that is not repurchased. SECTION 1805. Compliance With Securities Laws Upon Purchase of Securities. In connection with any offer to repurchase or repurchase of 2007 Notes under Section 1801, the Company shall (a) comply with Rule 13e-4 (or any successor to such Rule), if applicable, under the Exchange Act, (b) file the related Schedule TO (or any successor or similar schedule, form or report) if required under the Exchange Act, and (c) otherwise comply with all federal and state securities laws in connection with such offer, all so as to permit the rights of the Holders and obligations of the Company under Sections 1801 through 1806 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified therein. SECTION 1806. Repayment to the Company. To the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 1803 exceeds the aggregate Repurchase Price of the 2007 Notes or portions thereof that the Company is obligated to repurchase, then promptly after the Repurchase Date the Trustee or a Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall return any such excess to the Company." 16 20 ARTICLE THREE MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS SECTION 301 Integral Part.
