The term “Adjusted Treasury Rate” has the meaning ascribed to that term in the Issuer’s Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, dated November 16, 2017.

 

* A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and should be evaluated independently of any other rating.  The rating is subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating organization.

 

**  The Issuer expects to deliver the First Mortgage Bonds against payment for the First Mortgage Bonds on or about the Settlement Date specified above, which will be the seventh business day following the date hereof.  Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise.  Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade First Mortgage Bonds on the date hereof or the next four succeeding business days will be required, by virtue of the fact that the First Mortgage Bonds are expected to initially settle in T+7, to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
