(qtr pymnts; no cap int; mstr pymnt sched) NOTE - page 6



DOE (Title XVII)	GEORGIA POWER COMPANY

TREAS NYC/CTR/BNF=[ ]

OBI=[ ]

provided, however, that a payment made in the manner described above shall not discharge any portion of a payment obligation under this Note, or be applied as provided in paragraph 13 of this Note, until the payment has been received and credited to the subaccount of FFB (within the account of the United States Treasury maintained at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York) specified by FFB in a written notice to the Secretary, or to such other account as may be specified from time to time by FFB in a written notice to the Secretary.

(b) In the event that FFB is not the Holder of this Note, then each payment under this Note shall be made in immediately available funds by electronic funds transfer to such account as shall be specified by the Holder in a written notice to the Borrower.

11. Late Payments.

(a) In the event that any payment of any amount owing under this Note is not made when and as due (any such amount being then an "Overdue Amount"), then the amount payable shall be such Overdue Amount plus interest thereon (such interest being the "Late Charge") computed in accordance with this subparagraph (a):

(1) The Late Charge shall accrue from the scheduled date of payment for the Overdue Amount (taking into account paragraph 9 of this Note) to the date on which payment is made.

In the event that the Overdue Amount and the amount of the accrued Late Charge are not paid on or before the such Payment Date, then the amount payable shall be the sum of the Overdue Amount and the amount of the accrued Late Charge, plus a Late Charge on such sum accruing at a new Late Charge Rate to be then determined in accordance with the principles of clause (3) of this subparagraph (a). For so long as any Overdue Amount remains unpaid, the Late Charge Rate shall be redetermined in accordance with the principles of clause (3) of this subparagraph (a) on each Payment Date to occur thereafter, and shall be applied to the Overdue Amount and all amounts of the accrued Late Charge to the date on which payment of the Overdue Amount and all amounts of the accrued Late Charge is made.

(b) Nothing in subparagraph (a) of this paragraph 11 shall be construed as permitting or implying that the Borrower may, without the written consent of the Holder, modify, extend, alter or affect in any manner whatsoever (except as explicitly provided herein) the right of the Holder to receive any and all payments on account of this Note on the dates specified in this Note.

14. Maturity Extensions.

(a) With respect to each Advance for which the Borrower has selected a Maturity Date that will occur before the Final Maturity Date (each such Maturity Date being an "Interim Maturity Date"), the Borrower may, effective as of such Interim Maturity Date, elect to extend the maturity of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the respective Advance (subject to subparagraph (c) of this paragraph 14) to a new Maturity Date to be selected by the Borrower in the manner and subject to the limitations specified in this subparagraph (a) (each such election being a "Maturity Extension Election"; each such elective extension of the maturity of any Advance that has an Interim Maturity Date being a "Maturity Extension"; and the Interim Maturity Date that is in effect for an Advance immediately before any such elective Maturity Extension being, from and after such Maturity Extension, the "Maturity Extension Effective Date").

(1) Except under the circumstances described in clause (3) of this subparagraph (a), the Borrower shall deliver to FFB (with a copy to the Secretary) written notification of each Maturity Extension Election, in the form of notification attached to this Note as Annex A-1 (each such notification being a "Maturity Extension Election Notice"), making reference to the "Advance Identifier" (as that term is defined in the Agreement) that FFB assigned to such Advance (as provided in the Agreement) and specifying, among other things, the following:

(B) the new Maturity Date that the Borrower selects to be in effect for such principal amount after the respective Maturity Extension Effective Date, which date:

(i) may be either a new Interim Maturity Date or the Final Maturity Date; and

(ii) in the event that the Borrower selects a new Interim Maturity Date as the new Maturity Date for any Advance, must meet the criteria for

(qtr pymnts; no cap int; mstr pymnt sched) NOTE - page 9



DOE (Title XVII)	GEORGIA POWER COMPANY

Maturity Dates prescribed in paragraph 5 of this Note (provided, however, that, for purposes of selecting a new Maturity Date in connection with a Maturity Extension Election, the reference to "the Requested Advance Date for the respective Advance" in subparagraph (c) of paragraph 5 of this Note shall be deemed to be a reference to "the respective Maturity Extension Effective Date").

(2) To be effective, a Maturity Extension Election Notice must be received by FFB on or before the third Business Day before the Interim Maturity Date in effect for the respective Advance immediately before such Maturity Extension.

(3) In the event that either of the circumstances described in subclause (A) or (B) of the next sentence occurs, then a Maturity Extension Election Notice (in the form of notice attached to this Note as Annex A-2), to be effective, must first be delivered to the Secretary for approval and be approved by the Secretary in writing, and such Maturity Extension Election Notice, together with written notification of the Secretary's approval thereof, must be received by FFB on or before the third Business Day before the Interim Maturity Date in effect for the respective Advance immediately before such Maturity Extension. The Secretary’s approval of a Maturity Extension Election Notice will be required under either of the following circumstances:

DOE (Title XVII)	GEORGIA POWER COMPANY

(b) With respect to any Advance that has an Interim Maturity Date, in the event that FFB does not receive a Maturity Extension Election Notice (and, if required under clause (3) of subparagraph (a) of this paragraph 14, written notification of the Secretary's approval thereof) on or before the third Business Day before such Interim Maturity Date, then the maturity of such Advance shall be extended automatically in the manner and subject to the limitations specified in this subparagraph (b) (each such automatic extension of the maturity of any Advance that has an Interim Maturity Date also being a "Maturity Extension"; and the Interim Maturity Date that is in effect for an Advance immediately before any such automatic Maturity Extension also being, from and after such Maturity Extension, the "Maturity Extension Effective Date").

(1) The new Maturity Date for such Advance shall be the immediately following quarterly Payment Date.

(2) If the Interim Maturity Date that is in effect for such Advance immediately before such automatic Maturity Extension is:

(A) a Payment Date that occurs before the First Principal Payment Date, then the amount of principal that will have its maturity extended automatically shall be the entire outstanding principal amount of such Advance; and

(B) either the First Principal Payment Date or a Payment Date that occurs after the First Principal Payment Date (such Advance being an "Amortizing Advance"), then the amount of principal that will have its maturity extended automatically shall be the outstanding principal amount of such Advance less the principal installment that is due on the respective Maturity Extension Effective Date (as provided in subparagraph (c) of this paragraph 14).

(c) In the event that the maturity of any Amortizing Advance that has an Interim Maturity Date is extended under either subparagraph (a) or (b) of this paragraph 14, then the principal installment that is due on the respective Maturity Extension Effective Date, in accordance with the principal repayment schedule that applied to such Amortizing Advance immediately before such Maturity Extension Effective Date, shall

(qtr pymnts; no cap int; mstr pymnt sched) NOTE - page 11



DOE (Title XVII)	GEORGIA POWER COMPANY

nevertheless be due and payable on such Maturity Extension Effective Date notwithstanding such Maturity Extension.

(d) In the event that the maturity of any Advance that has an Interim Maturity Date is extended under either subparagraph (a) or (b) of this paragraph 14, then the interest rate for such Advance, from and after the respective Maturity Extension Effective Date, shall be the particular rate that is established by FFB, as of such Maturity Extension Effective Date, in accordance with the principles of subparagraph (c) of paragraph 6 of this Note.

(e) In the event that the maturity of any Amortizing Advance that has an Interim Maturity Date is extended under either subparagraph (a) or (b) of this paragraph 14, then the amount of the quarterly principal installments that will be due after the respective Maturity Extension Effective Date shall be equal to the amount of the quarterly installments of principal that were due in accordance with the principal repayment schedule that applied to such Amortizing Advance immediately before such Maturity Extension Effective Date.

(f) In the event that the maturity of any Amortizing Advance that has an Interim Maturity Date is extended under either subparagraph (a) or (b) of this paragraph 14, then for each such Amortizing Advance, the quarterly installments of principal shall be due beginning on the first Payment Date to occur after the respective Maturity Extension Effective Date, and shall be due on each Payment Date to occur thereafter up through and including the earlier to occur of either (A) the new Maturity Date for such extended Amortizing Advance, on which date the entire unpaid principal amount of such extended Amortizing Advance shall also be payable, subject to further Maturity Extensions if the new Maturity Date is an Interim Maturity Date, or (B) the date on which the entire principal amount of such extended Amortizing Advance, and all unpaid interest (and Late Charges, if any) accrued thereon, are paid.

(g) The maturity of each Advance may be extended more than once as provided in this paragraph 14, but upon the occurrence of the Final Maturity Date, no further Maturity Extensions may occur.

(A) the total outstanding principal amount of such Advance; or

(B) an amount less than the total outstanding principal amount of such Advance (any such amount being a "Portion").

(1) in the event that the Borrower elects to prepay the entire outstanding principal amount of any Advance, then the Borrower shall pay to the Holder a Prepayment Price for such Advance equal to the sum of:

(A) the price for such Advance that would, if such Advance (including all unpaid interest accrued thereon through the Intended Prepayment Date) were purchased by a third party and held to the Maturity Date of such Advance, produce a yield to the third-party purchaser for the period from the date of purchase to the Maturity Date of such Advance substantially equal to the interest rate that would be set on a loan from the Secretary of the Treasury to FFB to purchase an obligation having a payment schedule identical to the payment schedule of such Advance for the period from the Intended Prepayment Date to the Maturity Date of such Advance; and

(B) all unpaid Late Charges (if any) accrued on such Advance through the Intended Prepayment Date;

(2) in the event that the Borrower elects to prepay a Portion of any Advance, then the Borrower shall pay to the Holder a Prepayment Price for such Portion that would equal such Portion's pro rata share of the Prepayment Price that would be required for a prepayment of the entire principal amount of such Advance (determined in accordance with the principles of clause (1) of this subparagraph (d)); and

(3) in the event that the Borrower elects to prepay this Note in its entirety, then the Borrower shall pay to the Holder an amount equal to the sum of the Prepayment Prices for all outstanding Advances (determined in accordance with the principles of clause (1) of this subparagraph (d)).

(h) In the event that the Borrower makes a Prepayment Election with respect to any Portion of an Advance, then the outstanding principal amount of such Advance from and after such partial prepayment, shall be due and payable in accordance with this subparagraph (h).

(1) The amounts of the scheduled installments of principal that will be due after such partial prepayment shall be equal to the amounts of the scheduled installments of principal that were due in accordance with the payment schedule that applied to such Advance immediately before such partial prepayment.

(2) The scheduled installments of principal shall be due beginning on the first Payment Date to occur after such partial prepayment, and shall be due on each Payment Date to occur thereafter up through and including the date on which the entire principal amount of such Advance and all unpaid interest (and Late Charges, if any) accrued thereon, are paid.
