Ladies and Gentlemen:

MGE Power Elm Road, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Wisconsin (the “Issuer”), agrees with each of the purchasers whose names appear at the end hereof (each, a “Purchaser” and, collectively, the “Purchasers”) as follows:

SECTION 1.

AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES.

The Issuer will authorize the issue and sale of $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 5.04% Senior Secured Notes, Series A, payable in installments with the final installment due on the Maturity Date (hereinafter defined) (the “Series A Notes,” such term to include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13). The Series A Notes together with each Series of Additional Notes (as hereinafter defined) which may from time to time be issued pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2 are collectively referred to as the “Notes” (such term to include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13). The Series A Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; and references to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement.

SECTION 2.

SALE AND PURCHASE OF NOTES.

Section 2.1.

Series A Notes. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuer will issue and sell to each Purchaser and each Purchaser will purchase from the Issuer, at the Closing provided for in Section 3, Series A Notes in the principal amount specified opposite such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A at the purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Purchasers’ obligations hereunder are several and not joint obligations and no Purchaser shall have any liability to any Person for the performance or non-performance of any obligation by any other Purchaser hereunder.

Section 2.2.

Additional Series of Notes. The Issuer may, from time to time, in its sole discretion, but subject to the terms hereof (including, without limitation, Section 10.1(b)), issue and sell one or more additional Series of its senior promissory notes under the provisions of this Agreement pursuant to a supplement (a “Note Supplement”) substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.2. Each additional Series of Notes (the “Additional Notes”) issued pursuant to a Note Supplement shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a)

each Series of Additional Notes, when so issued, shall be differentiated from all previous Series by sequential alphabetical designation inscribed thereon;

(b)

Additional Notes of the same Series may consist of more than one different and separate tranches and may differ with respect to outstanding principal amounts, maturity dates, interest rates and premiums, if any, and price and terms of redemption or payment prior to maturity, but all such different and separate tranches of the same Series shall vote as a single class and constitute one Series;

(c)

each Series of Additional Notes shall be dated the date of issue, bear interest at such rate or rates, mature on such date or dates, be subject to such mandatory and optional prepayment on the dates and at the premiums, if any, have such additional or different conditions precedent to closing, such representations and warranties and such additional covenants and events of default as shall be specified in the Note Supplement under which such Additional Notes are issued provided, that any such additional covenants and events of default (other than with respect to interest rate, prepayments or premiums thereon, maturity thereof or payment schedules therefor) in favor of the holder of such Additional Notes shall inure to the benefit of all holders of Notes so long as any Additional Notes issued pursuant to such Note Supplement remain outstanding and such additional covenants and events of default shall not amend, modify, impair or dilute the existing covenants and events of default set forth herein;

(d)

each Series of Additional Notes issued under this Agreement shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit 1 to Exhibit 2.2 hereto with such variations, omissions and insertions as are necessary or permitted hereunder;

(e)

the minimum principal amount of any Note issued under a Note Supplement shall be $500,000, except as may be necessary to evidence the outstanding amount of any Note originally issued in a denomination of $500,000 or more;

(g)

all Additional Notes shall constitute senior Indebtedness of the Issuer and shall rank pari passu with all other outstanding Notes under the terms of the Security Documents; and

(h)

no Additional Notes shall be issued hereunder if at the time of issuance thereof and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds thereof, any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

It is specifically acknowledged and agreed that the Purchasers of the Series A Notes, or any other

holder of Notes shall not have any obligation to purchase any Additional Notes.

Section 2.3.

Collateral . Pursuant to the Security Documents, the Issuer will secure its obligations under the Notes and the other Financing Documents to which it is a party and the other Secured Obligations by granting to the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of Notes and the other Secured Parties, a security interest and Lien in all of its right, title and interest in the Collateral.

SECTION 8.

PAYMENT AND PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES.

Section 8.1.

Scheduled Payments for the Series A Notes. (a) In addition to paying the entire outstanding principal amount of, and the interest due on, the Series A Notes on the Maturity Date, the Issuer agrees to prepay, and there shall become due and payable, principal amounts of the Series A Notes (together with accrued interest owing thereon) on the respective dates set out on Schedule 8.1 hereto (the “Series A Notes Amortization Schedule”).

(b)

Each such prepayment of principal made pursuant to Section 8.1(a) shall be at 100% of the principal amount to be prepaid (but without payment of any Make-Whole Amount), together with interest accrued thereon to the date of prepayment.

(c)

The Issuer’s exercise of the prepayment option contained in Section 8.2 and any required prepayment pursuant to Section 8.4, in each case which results in a prepayment of less than all of the outstanding principal amount of the Series A Notes, shall be applied to reduce the principal amount of each required prepayment of the Series A Notes becoming due under this Section 8.1 on and after the date of such prepayment in the same proportion as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Series A Notes is reduced as a result of such prepayment.

Upon any partial prepayment of the Series A Notes pursuant to Sections 8.2 or 8.4, the Issuer shall prepare and distribute to the Collateral Trustee, for further distribution by the Collateral Trustee to the holders, a revised Series A Notes Amortization Schedule that shall automatically amend Schedule 8.1 (subject to the terms of this paragraph). The revised Series A Notes Amortization Schedule shall reflect the aggregate principal amount of the Series A Notes becoming due after any partial prepayment referred to above for each scheduled payment date following such partial prepayment. In the event that the holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Series A Notes do not concur with the revised Series A Notes Amortization Schedule prepared by the Issuer, within 15 Business Days after receipt by

-24-

such holders of such revised Series A Notes Amortization Schedule delivered by the Collateral Trustee, such holders of the Series A Notes shall provide a corrected revised Series A Notes Amortization Schedule to the Issuer and the Collateral Trustee prepared in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.1, and such Series A Notes Amortization Schedule shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error.

Section 8.2.

Optional Prepayment of the Notes with Make-Whole Amount. (a) The Issuer may, upon notice as provided in Section 8.2(b), prepay all of the Notes of any Series in whole or in part, from time to time, in multiples of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, together with all interest accrued on the amount so prepaid plus the Make-Whole Amount, if any, determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount of each Note of such Series; provided that such prepayment may be in an amount less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) if it is a prepayment in full of all of the outstanding Notes of such Series.

(b)

The Issuer will give notice of any optional prepayment of the Notes of a Series to each holder of the Notes of such Series not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days before the date fixed for prepayment, specifying (i) such date, (ii) the Section of this Agreement under which such prepayment is to be made, (iii) the principal amount of such holder’s Notes of such Series to be prepaid on such date, in the case of partial prepayments and (iv) the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Issuer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount, if any, due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two (2) Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Issuer shall deliver to each holder of Notes of the Series being prepaid a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Issuer specifying in reasonable detail the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date. Notice of prepayment having been so given, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified in such notice, together with the Make-Whole Amount, if any, and accrued interest on such principal amount shall become due and payable on the specified prepayment date.

(c)

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 8.2 to the contrary, if and so long as any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.2 shall be allocated among all of the Notes of all Series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof.

Section 8.3.

Allocation of Partial Prepayments. All partial prepayments of the Series A Notes pursuant to Section 8.1(a) shall be applied to the outstanding Series A Notes ratably in accordance with the unpaid principal amounts thereof. All regularly scheduled partial prepayments made with respect to any Series of Additional Notes issued pursuant to any Note Supplement shall be allocated as provided therein. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2, subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) thereof, the principal amount of the Notes of the Series

-25-

to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes of such Series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment. Required prepayments of the Notes made pursuant to Section 8.4 shall be applied to the Notes of all Series and shall be allocated among such Notes in accordance with the terms set forth in such Section.

Section 8.4.

Required Prepayments of Notes.

(a)

Event of Total Loss Prepayment. (i) If there shall have occurred an Event of Total Loss with respect to a Facility, the Issuer shall apply the Required Prepayment Amount in respect of such Facility to prepay each outstanding Note in a principal amount which equals the Ratable Portion for such Note, together with accrued interest on such principal amount to the date of such prepayment, plus all other amounts payable hereunder (other than, for the sake of clarity and the avoidance of doubt, any Make-Whole Amount, which shall not be payable in connection with a prepayment due to an Event of Total Loss).

(ii)

The Issuer will give notice of prepayment under clause (a)(i) of this Section 8.4 to the holders of Notes promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after a Responsible Officer of the Issuer knows of the occurrence of an Event of Total Loss and shall specify in such notice (A) the date for such prepayment, (B) the Section of this Agreement under which such prepayment is to be made and describe in reasonable detail the events giving rise to such prepayment, (C) the Ratable Portion of each Note being prepaid on such date, and (D) the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid. The date for prepayment shall not be later than (1) 90 days after the date on which the Facility Lease Agreement in respect of the Facility for which there was an Event of Total Loss terminates in accordance with Section 11.2(c) of such Facility Lease Agreement or (2) if earlier, the earliest of (I) the first date on which the Issuer has funds in an amount sufficient to pay all amounts due hereunder, and (II) 270 days after the Event of Total Loss.

(b)

Early Termination Prepayment. (i) If there shall have occurred an Early Termination with respect to a Facility Lease Agreement, the Issuer shall apply the Required Prepayment Amount in respect of such Facility Lease Agreement to prepay each outstanding Note in a principal amount which equals the Ratable Portion for such Note, together with accrued interest on such principal amount to the date of such prepayment and the Make-Whole Amount, if any, determined for the prepayment date with respect to the principal amount to be prepaid plus all other amounts payable hereunder.

(ii)

The Issuer will give notice of prepayment under clause (b)(i) of this Section 8.4 to the holders of the Notes promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after a Responsible Officer of the Issuer knows of the occurrence or has received a notice of election of an Early Termination and shall specify in such notice (A) the date for such prepayment, (B) the Section of this Agreement under which such prepayment is to be made and describe in reasonable detail the events giving rise to such prepayment, (C) the Ratable Portion of each Note being prepaid on such date, and (D) the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Responsible

-26-

Officer of the Issuer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount, if any, due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two (2) Business Days prior to the specified prepayment date, the Issuer shall deliver to each holder of Notes a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Issuer specifying in reasonable detail the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date. The date for prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.4(b)(i) shall be the date of the Early Termination, or if the Early Termination has occurred, such date of prepayment shall be no more than thirty (30) days after the date of the notice required to be given under this Section 8.4(b)(ii). In the event the holders of Notes have not received the notice required to be given under this Section 8.4(b)(ii), such prepayment shall be due and payable upon the thirtieth (30th) day after the occurrence of such Early Termination or, if earlier, the date the Issuer receives payment from MGE in respect of such Early Termination pursuant to the applicable Facility Lease Agreement.

Section 8.5.

Maturity; Surrender, Etc. In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Issuer shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Issuer and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.

Section 8.6.

Purchase of Notes. The Issuer will not and will not permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes. The Issuer will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment or prepayment of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

Section 8.7.

Provision for Make-Whole Amount For Series A Notes. The Issuer acknowledges that the right of each holder of a Series A Note to maintain a rate of return based upon the full term of the Series A Notes (and the scheduled prepayments under Section 8.1) is a valuable right, and that the provisions for payment of the Make-Whole Amount by the Issuer in the event that (a) the Series A Notes are otherwise prepaid (other than in connection with an Event of Total Loss) or (b) the maturity of the Series A Notes is accelerated, are intended (and shall be deemed for all purposes) to provide reasonable compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.

The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Series A Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Series A Note over the amount of such Called Principal,

-27-

provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Series A Note, the principal of such Series A Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.4(b) or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series A Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Series A Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” shall mean, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series A Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by (a) the yields reported, as of 10:00 a.m. (New York, New York time) on the second (2) Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” on the Bloomberg Financial Services Screen (or such other display as may replace Page PX1 on the Bloomberg Financial Services Screen) for the most recently issued actively traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (b) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second (2) Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. In the case of each determination under the foregoing clauses (a) or (b), as the case may be, such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (1) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (2) interpolating linearly between (i) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (ii) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Series A Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due

-28-

date of each such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series A Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2, Section 8.4(b) or Section 12.1.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series A Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.4(b) or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

SECTION 9.

AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.

-29-

have occurred and be continuing, the Issuer agrees to reimburse such holder for all such expenses promptly upon demand.

(b)

The Issuer will (i) maintain the Facility Lease Agreements and the other Project Agreements to which it is a party in full force and effect, (ii) comply in all material respects with all terms and provisions thereof and (iii) enforce the compliance by each of the other parties thereto in accordance with the terms thereof so as to avoid a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 9.4.

Environmental Matters. The Issuer will operate its Property in compliance with Environmental Laws but for any noncompliance that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and will establish and implement such procedures as may be reasonably necessary to continuously determine and assure that any failure of the following could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (i) all Property of the Issuer and the operations conducted thereon and other activities of the Issuer presently are and will be in material compliance with Environmental Laws and (ii) no Hazardous Materials or solid wastes presently are or will be disposed of, discharged or otherwise released except in compliance with Environmental Laws.

(b)

If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Majority Holders may at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Issuer, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

(c)

If any Event of Default described in Section 11(a) has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes at the time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Issuer, declare all the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable.

Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus (x) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including, but not limited to, interest accrued thereon at the Default Rate) and (y) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect of such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived. The Issuer acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from

-40-

repayment by the Issuer (except as herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Issuer in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.

Section 12.2.

Other Remedies. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any other Financing Document, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.

Rescission. At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1(b) or (c), the Majority Holders, by written notice to the Issuer, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Issuer has paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) neither the Issuer nor any other Person shall have paid any amounts which have become due solely by reason of such declaration, (c) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 17, and (d) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes.

No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any other Financing Document upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the Issuer under Section 15, the Issuer will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12 and any other Financing Document, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.

Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $500,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $500,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed (i) to have made the representation set forth in Section 6.2 and (ii) to have agreed to the terms and conditions of the Collateral Trust Indenture, to be bound by the terms thereof and to have all the rights and benefits granted to a Secured Party therein (without any further action on the part of such transferee).

Section 13.3.

Replacement of Notes. Upon receipt by the Issuer at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18(iv)) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and

(a)

in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

-42-

(b)

in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,

within ten Business Days thereafter, the Issuer at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.

SECTION 14.

Place of Payment. Subject to Section 14.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in Milwaukee, Wisconsin at the principal office of U.S. Bank National Association in such jurisdiction. The Issuer may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Issuer in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction.

Section 14.2.

Home Office Payment.

Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by a Purchaser or Additional Purchaser or such Person’s nominee, such Person will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Issuer in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 13.2. The Issuer will afford the benefits of this Section 14.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by a Purchaser or Additional Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchasers and Additional Purchaser have made in this Section 14.2.

-44-

INVESTIGATING, DEFENDING OR PREPARING TO DEFEND ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT, PROCEEDING (INCLUDING ANY INVESTIGATIONS, LITIGATION OR INQUIRIES) OR CLAIM AND INCLUDING ALL INDEMNITY MATTERS ARISING BY REASON OF THE ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY, BUT EXCLUDING ALL INDEMNITY MATTERS ARISING SOLELY BY REASON OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT ON THE PART OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY; AND

(ii)

TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LOSSES, CLAIMS, COST RECOVERY ACTIONS, ADMINISTRATIVE ORDERS OR PROCEEDINGS, DAMAGES AND LIABILITIES TO WHICH ANY SUCH PERSON MAY BECOME SUBJECT IN CONNECTION WITH THE FINANCING DOCUMENTS (A) UNDER ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LAW, (B) AS A RESULT OF THE BREACH OR NON-COMPLIANCE BY THE ISSUER OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF WITH ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LAW APPLICABLE TO THE ISSUER OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF, (C) DUE TO PAST OWNERSHIP BY THE ISSUER OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF OF ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES OR PAST ACTIVITY ON ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES WHICH, THOUGH LAWFUL AND FULLY PERMISSIBLE AT THE TIME, COULD RESULT IN PRESENT OR FUTURE LIABILITY, (D) DUE TO THE PRESENCE, USE, RELEASE, DISCHARGE, STORAGE, TREATMENT OR DISPOSAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON OR AT ANY OF THE PROPERTIES NOW OR FORMERLY OWNED OR OPERATED BY THE ISSUER OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF, OR (E) AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH OR SAFETY CONDITION FOR WHICH THE ISSUER HAS ANY LIABILITY, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, NO INDEMNITY SHALL BE AFFORDED UNDER THIS SECTION 15.3(a)(ii) IN RESPECT OF ANY LOSS, CLAIM, COST RECOVERY ACTION, ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER OR PROCEEDING, DAMAGE OR LIABILITY ARISING SOLELY BY REASON OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON.

(b)

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Indemnified Party may settle any claim for which it may be entitled to indemnification hereunder without the consent of the Issuer, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, that the Issuer may not reasonably withhold consent to any settlement that an Indemnified Party proposes solely on the basis that the Issuer does not have the financial ability to pay all obligations outstanding and asserted against the Issuer at that time, including the maximum potential claims against the Indemnified Party to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 15.3.

(c)

In the case of any indemnification hereunder, an Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice to the Issuer of any claim or demand being made against it; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not release the Issuer from any of its obligations, except to the extent that failure to give prompt notice of any action, suit or proceeding against such Indemnified Party shall impair the Issuer’s contest or defense of such claim or demand. Subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, the Issuer shall at its sole cost and expense be entitled to control, and shall assume full responsibility for, the defense of such claim or demand; provided that the Issuer shall keep the Indemnified Party which is the subject of such proceeding fully apprised of the status of such proceeding and shall provide such Indemnified Party with all information with respect to such proceeding as such Indemnified Person shall reasonably request.

-45-

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, the Issuer shall not be entitled to control and assume responsibility for the defense of such claim or demand if (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) such proceeding will involve any possibility of the sale, forfeiture or loss of, or the creation of any Lien (other than an Excepted Lien or a Lien which is adequately bonded to the satisfaction of such Indemnified Party) on, the Properties of the Issuer or any part thereof, (iii) in the good faith opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party, there exists an actual or potential conflict of interest such that it is advisable for such Indemnified Person to retain control of such proceeding or (iv) such claim or demand involves the possibility of criminal sanctions or criminal liability to such Indemnified Party. In the circumstances described in clauses (i) through (iv), inclusive, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to control and assume responsibility for the defense of such claim or demand at the expense of the Issuer; provided, however, the Issuer shall not be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one law firm (plus one law firm serving as local counsel) representing all of the Indemnified Parties. In addition, any Indemnified Party may participate in any proceeding controlled by the Issuer, at its own expense in respect of any such proceeding as to which the Issuer shall have acknowledged in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party, and at the expense of the Issuer in respect of any such proceeding as to which the Issuer shall have the obligation but shall not have so acknowledged its obligation to the Indemnified Party within a reasonable time after notice provided in this Section 15.3(c). The Issuer may, in any event, participate in all such proceedings at its own expense. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require an Indemnified Party to contest any claim or demand or to assume responsibility for or control of any judicial proceeding with respect thereto.

(d)

THE FOREGOING INDEMNITIES SHALL EXTEND TO THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES NOTWITHSTANDING THE SOLE OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE OF EVERY KIND OR CHARACTER WHATSOEVER, WHETHER ACTIVE OR PASSIVE, WHETHER AN AFFIRMATIVE ACT OR AN OMISSION, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL TYPES OF NEGLIGENT CONDUCT (OTHER THAN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT) IDENTIFIED IN THE RESTATEMENT (SECOND) OF TORTS OF ONE OR MORE OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES OR BY REASON OF STRICT LIABILITY IMPOSED WITHOUT FAULT ON ANY ONE OR MORE OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES. TO THE EXTENT THAT AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY IS FOUND TO HAVE COMMITTED AN ACT OF GROSS NEGLIGENCE, BAD FAITH OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, THIS CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION OF INDEMNIFICATION AS TO SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY SHALL CONTINUE BUT SHALL ONLY EXTEND TO THE PORTION OF THE CLAIM THAT IS DEEMED TO HAVE OCCURRED BY REASON OF EVENTS OTHER THAN THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE FAITH OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTY.

(e)

The Issuer shall pay any amounts due under this Section 15.3 within thirty (30) days of the receipt by the Issuer of written notice of the amount due; provided such notice contains a reasonable description of the calculation of such amount.

(f)

If any amounts due by the Issuer to any holder of the Notes under this Section 15.3 or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document is not paid on the date due, such amounts shall bear interest and Issuer agrees to pay such amounts with interest at the Default Rate from the due date of such payable until paid.

Section 15.4.

-46-

Issuer under this Section 15 will survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of any Financing Document, and the termination of the Financing Documents.

SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Financing Documents, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser or any Additional Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Issuer or MGE pursuant to this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Issuer under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement, the Notes and the other Financing Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between each Purchaser and each Additional Purchaser and the Issuer and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

SECTION 17.

Section 17.2.

Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

-47-

(a)

Solicitation. The Issuer will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision, if required, with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes or any other Financing Document. The Issuer will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each such amendment, waiver or consent to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval, if required, of, the requisite holders of Notes.

(b)

Payment. The Issuer will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security or provide other credit support, to any holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of Notes of any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to any of the terms and provisions hereof or of any other Financing Document unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or additional security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment.

Section 17.3.

Binding Effect, Etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Issuer without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Issuer and the holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note.

Section 17.4.

Notes Held by Issuer, Etc. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Issuer or MGE or any of their Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

The Issuer agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding, (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Issuer or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

SECTION 20.

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means written

-49-

information delivered to any Purchaser or any Additional Purchaser by or on behalf of the Issuer in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser as being confidential information of the Issuer, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser or any Person acting on such Purchaser’s or such Additional Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Issuer or any other Person known to such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser to owe an obligation of confidentiality to the Issuer or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser under the provisions of this Agreement that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser and each Additional Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser, provided that such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information (i) to its directors, officers, trustees, employees, agents, attorneys, financial advisors and other professional advisors and Affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its Notes), (ii) to any other holder of any Note, (iii) to any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (iv) to any Person from which it offers to purchase any Notes (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (v) to any Federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser and to whom such disclosure is required, (vi) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency, in each case that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s or such Additional Purchaser’s investment portfolio or (vii)(w) to effect compliance with any Governmental Requirement applicable to such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s or such Additional Purchaser’s Notes and this Agreement. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Issuer, in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Issuer embodying the provisions of this Section 20. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, any Person (and each employee, representative or other agent of such person) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction evidenced by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions

-50-

or other tax analyses) that are provided to such Person relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

SECTION 21.

SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER.

Each Purchaser and each Additional Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Issuer, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser and such Affiliate, shall contain, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Issuer, such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement expressly including Section 20 hereof and shall contain, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Issuer, a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser or such Additional Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of such original Purchaser or such original Additional Purchaser. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a Purchaser or an Additional Purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser or such original Additional Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Issuer of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Affiliate as a “Purchaser” or an “Additional Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to such original Purchaser or such original Additional Purchaser, and such original Purchaser or such original Additional Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.

SECTION 22.

MISCELLANEOUS.

Section 22.1.

Successors and Assigns. Whenever any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party; and all the covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement made by or on behalf of the Issuer or by or on behalf of any holder of a Note, shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of such parties whether so expressed or not; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not assign or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all of the holders of the Notes.

Section 22.2.

Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting the requirement in Section 8.5 that the notice of any optional prepayment specify a Business Day as the date fixed for such prepayment), any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; provided that if the maturity date of any Note is a date other than a Business Day, the payment otherwise due on such maturity date shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

Section 22.3.

Accounting Terms. All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenants contained in this Agreement, any election by the Issuer to measure an item of Indebtedness using fair value (as permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made.

If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in this Agreement, and either the Issuer or the Majority Holders shall so request, the Majority Holders and the Issuer shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Majority Holders, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided that from and after the date such request is made, until so amended, such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein (“Static GAAP”). At any time that any covenant shall be calculated in accordance with Static GAAP in the Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(a), reconciliations in reasonable detail between the relevant numbers and figures calculated pursuant to GAAP in effect at such time versus Static GAAP shall be included with such Officer’s Certificate.

Section 22.4.

Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 22.5.

Construction. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

Section 22.6.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

-52-

AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, OTHER THAN CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES THEREOF THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN SUCH STATE.

(a) The Issuer irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes.

[The Section references hereinafter set forth correspond to the similar sections in Section 5 to the Note Purchase Agreement which are supplemented hereby:]

Section 5.3.

The Issuer, through its agent, [_____________________], has delivered to each Purchaser a copy of a Private Placement Memorandum, dated [_______________] (the “Memorandum”), relating to the transactions contemplated hereby.

Since [last audit date] , there has been no change in the Facilities or the financial condition, operations, business or properties of the Issuer or MGE except changes that individually or in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.4.

Financial Statements. The Issuer has delivered to each Purchaser copies of the financial statements listed on Schedule 5.4 to the [Number] Supplement. All of said financial statements (including in each case the related schedules and notes) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Issuer and MGE as of the respective dates specified in such financial statements and, if applicable, the results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments).

Neither the Issuer nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Series [___] Notes or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Purchasers and not more than [___] other Institutional Investors, each of which has been offered the Series [_____] Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Issuer nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Series [_____] Notes to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the

SCHEDULE 5
(to Supplement)

Securities Act or to the registration requirements of any securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

Section 5.13.

Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. The Issuer will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Series [_____] Notes to [____________________]. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Series [_____] Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR 221), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under such circumstances as to involve the Issuer or MGE in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). As used in this section, the terms “margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U. The Issuer does not own and will not acquire any margin stock.

Section 5.14.

Indebtedness. (a) Schedule 5.14 to the [Number] Supplement sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Issuer as of [____________] (including a description of the obligors and obligees, principal amount outstanding and collateral therefor, if any, and Guaranty thereof, if any). The Issuer is not in default and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Indebtedness of the Issuer and no event or condition exists with respect to any Indebtedness of the Issuer that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Indebtedness to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.

(b)

Since [_________________], there has been no material change in the amounts, interest rates, sinking funds, installment payments or maturities of the Indebtedness reflected on the financial statements of MGE as of such date (copies of which have been delivered to the Purchasers). MGE is not in default and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Indebtedness of MGE. No event or condition exists with respect to any Indebtedness of MGE, the principal amount of which is at least $35,000,000, that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Indebtedness to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.

collectively as the “Transaction Agreements”; the Transaction Agreements, the Undertaking and the Notes are referred to herein collectively as the “Transaction Documents”; and the Company, MGE, MGE Energy and MGE Power are collectively referred to as the “Transaction Parties.” “Applicable Laws” means those state laws of the State of New York and those federal laws of the United States of America that, in our experience and without independent investigation, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Transaction Documents, including laws related to usury; provided, however, that the term “Applicable Laws” shall not include federal or state securities or blue sky laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”)), fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer laws, antifraud laws, or in each case any rules or regulations thereunder.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations stated herein, we are of the opinion that, as of the date hereof:

Each of the Transaction Agreements to which a Transaction Party is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Transaction Party, enforceable against such Transaction Party in accordance with its terms.

The Notes constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.

No filing with, or authorization, approval, consent or order of, any United States federal or New York State governmental authority or agency is required under Applicable Laws to authorize, or is required in connection with the execution and delivery by any Transaction Party of the Transaction Documents to which such Transaction Party is a party and the performance by such Transaction Party of its obligations thereunder, including the issuance and sale of the Notes by the Company; except for any authorization, approval, consent or order which has already been made or obtained.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party do not and will not breach, contravene, violate, constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien in respect of any property of the Company under, any of the agreements listed on Schedule II hereto (other than those liens contemplated or created in connection with the Project Agreements).

The execution, delivery and performance by a Transaction Party of the Transaction Documents to which such Transaction Party is a party do not and will not violate any Applicable Laws.

To our knowledge, there are no pending or threatened legal or administrative proceedings which question the validity of the Transaction Documents.

4.4(a)-2

The offering, issuance, sale and delivery of the Notes under the circumstances contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement do not require the registration of the Notes under the Securities Act or the qualification of an indenture under the Trust Indenture Act.

Based upon the Officer’s Certificate of the Company dated the date hereof and attached hereto, the issuance of the Notes in accordance with the provisions of and as contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement do not violate or conflict with Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Neither the Company nor MGE is required to be registered as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.

10.

Based solely upon the Order issued November 19, 2004 by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) in Docket No. EL04-136-000, the Company is not subject to FERC’s jurisdiction under the Federal Power Act, as amended.

For the purpose of expressing the foregoing opinions, we have relied, as to various questions of fact material thereto, upon the representations made in the Transaction Agreements and upon certificates of officers of the Transaction Parties. We also have examined originals, or copies of originals certified to our satisfaction, of such agreements, documents, certificates and other statements of government officials and other instruments, have examined such questions of law and have satisfied ourselves as to such matters of fact as we have considered relevant and necessary as a basis for this letter, except that with respect to each Transaction Document executed by any party, we have assumed, to the extent relevant to the opinions set forth herein, that (i) such party has been duly formed or organized and was at all relevant times and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation or organization, (ii) such party had at all relevant times and has full right, power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each Transaction Document to which it is a party and each such Transaction Document has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such party, (iii) the execution, delivery and performance of its obligations under each such Transaction Document by such party will not violate the articles or certificate of incorporation or other charter document, organizational agreement or by-laws of such party or any law, order or decree of any court, administrative agency or other governmental authority binding on such party, or result in a breach of or cause a default under any contract or indenture to which such party is a party or by which it is bound and (iv) is a valid, binding and enforceable agreement or obligation, as the case may be, of, such party (provided that (I) in the case of clause (iii), with respect to the Transaction Parties, (A) we have not made such assumption regarding violation of any law, order or decree with respect to Applicable Laws and (B) we have not made such assumption regarding breach or default under the agreements listed on Schedule II, and (II) in the case of clause (iv), we have not made such assumption with respect to the Transaction Parties). We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies or by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission. We have also assumed that there are no amendments, waivers or other agreements in existence by or among the parties to the Transaction Agreements that would vary,

4.4(a)-3

contradict or otherwise modify the terms of the Transaction Agreements as reviewed by us.

The foregoing opinions and statements are subject to the following exceptions, limitations and qualifications:

(a)

The opinions expressed in paragraphs 1 and 2 as to enforceability are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer and similar laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally and by general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity); and are further subject to the limitation that the enforceability of any rights to indemnification or contribution may be limited by federal or state securities laws or regulations or by public policy.

(b)

We express no opinion as to the enforceability of provisions in any Transaction Agreement that (i) attempt to exculpate other parties from liability for future actions, inactions or practices; (ii) purport to establish evidentiary standards; (iii) purport to confer subject matter jurisdiction on any court or fix venue; (iv) provide for methods of service of process other than in accordance with applicable law; (v) relate to severability or separability; (vi) relate to payment without set-off or that otherwise purport to make obligations of, or determinations by, any party unconditional and absolute; or (vii) provide that terms may not be waived or modified except in writing.

(c)

In rendering our opinion as to the enforceability of the choice of New York law, we have relied on Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law, which states in pertinent part that “[t]he parties to any contract, agreement or undertaking, contingent or otherwise, in consideration of, or relating to any obligation arising out of a transaction covering in the aggregate not less than two hundred fifty thousand dollars, may agree that the law of this state shall govern their rights and duties in whole or in part, whether or not such contract, agreement or undertaking bears a reasonable relation to this state.” One United States federal district court sitting in New York, in upholding the application of Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law in a case in which it found sufficient connections with New York State, suggested that the enforcement of the election of the parties to a contract to apply New York law might present a constitutional issue if New York State had no connection to either the parties or the transaction and applying New York law would violate an important public policy of a more interested state. Lehman Brothers Commercial Corporation et al. v. Minmetal International Non-Ferrous Metals Trading Company et. al., 179 F. Supp. 2^nd 118 (S.D.N.Y. 2000) (the “Minmetal Opinion”). In rendering our opinion as to the enforceability of the choice of New York law, we note that one of the Purchasers is located in New York. However, as the Minmetal Opinion did not address, and we have not found any judicial interpretation of, what constitutes “no connection” for purposes of Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law, we do not express any opinion as to whether the contacts we have noted are a sufficient “connection” to satisfy the requirements of the Minmetal Opinion.

4.4(a)-4

(d)

We express no opinion as to the law of any jurisdiction other than the federal laws of the United States of America and the laws of the State of New York (to the extent the laws of the State of New York relate to, and govern, the Transaction Documents). We note that certain provisions of the Collateral Trust Indenture are governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin, and we express no opinion as to the enforceability of such provisions.

(e)

We express no opinion as to the creation, perfection or priority of any security interest in any of the Collateral (as defined in the Collateral Trust Indenture).

(f)

With respect to our opinion in paragraph 4, we express no opinion as to whether the incurrence of indebtedness by the Company under the Transaction Documents might result in the violation of any of the financial covenants with respect to financial ratios or tests or any aspect of the financial condition or results of operations of the Company set forth in any of the agreements listed on Schedule II hereto.

(g)

We express no opinion as to provisions in any Transaction Agreement that purports to create rights of set-off in favor of participants or that provide for set-off to be made otherwise than in accordance with applicable laws.

(h)

With respect to our opinion in paragraph 9 that neither the Company nor MGE is required to register as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act, we have relied exclusively, (i) as to all factual matters relating to the Company, on a certificate, dated as of the date of this letter, of Jeffrey Newman, a Manager of the Company, a copy of which is attached hereto and (ii) as to all factual matters relating to MGE, on a certificate, dated as of the date of this letter, of Jeffrey Newman, Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary of MGE, a copy of which is attached hereto.

(i)

We express no opinion as to the effect of (i) the compliance or noncompliance of any party to the Transaction Documents with any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to that party because of that party’s business (except that no such qualification is made with respect to the Company to the extent set forth in paragraph 5 above), (ii) the failure of any party to the Transaction Documents to be authorized to conduct business in any jurisdiction or (iii) compliance or non-compliance by any party to the Transaction Documents, as a result of future discretionary acts by such party, with any provision of the Transaction Documents.

(j)

Certain remedial provisions of the Transaction Documents may be unenforceable in whole or in part, but the inclusion of such provisions does not affect the validity of the Transaction Documents; however, the unenforceability of such provisions may result in delays in the enforcement of the Trustee’s and the Secured Parties’ rights and remedies under the Transaction Documents (and we express no opinion as to the economic consequences, if any, of such delays). Except as set forth in subparagraph (a) above, the Transaction Documents contain adequate provisions for the practical realization of the material rights and benefits intended to be afforded thereby.

4.4(a)-5

(k)

Any opinion or statement herein which is expressed to be “to our knowledge” or is otherwise qualified by words of like import means that the lawyers currently practicing law with this Firm who have had an active involvement in negotiating the Transaction Documents have no current conscious awareness of any facts or information contrary to such opinion or statement.

This letter is being delivered solely for the benefit of the persons to whom it is addressed in connection with the matters described above; accordingly, it may not be quoted, filed with any governmental authority or other regulatory agency or otherwise circulated or utilized for any other purpose without our prior written consent. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence: (i) you may make available a copy of this letter to any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you (as well as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) or any prospective purchaser of a Note that is an Institutional Investor (as defined in clause (c) of the definition thereof set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement), provided that such recipient shall not be entitled to rely on this letter; and (ii) any Institutional Investor who purchases a Note may rely on this letter as of the date hereof (although any reliance after the date hereof shall not be an updating or redelivery of the opinions expressed in this letter). We assume no obligation to notify you or any such Institutional Investor or to supplement this letter to reflect any facts or circumstances which may hereafter come to our attention with respect to the opinions expressed herein, including any changes in applicable law which may hereafter occur.

Very truly yours,

FORM OF OPINION OF STAFFORD ROSENBAUM LLP
SPECIAL WISCONSIN COUNSEL FOR THE ISSUER

February ___, 2010

To Each of the Parties Listed

on Schedule I Hereto

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special Wisconsin counsel to MGE Power Elm Road, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company (the “Company”), MGE Energy, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation ("MGE Energy"), Madison Gas and Electric Company, a Wisconsin corporation ("MGE"), and MGE Power LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company ("MGE Power"), in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of that certain Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), among the Purchasers listed on Schedule I hereto (the “Purchasers”) and the Company, pursuant to which the Company is issuing $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.04% Senior Secured Notes due February 4, 2040 (the “Notes”), and the Transaction Documents as defined below. This letter is being delivered to you at the request of the Company pursuant to Section 4.4(b) of the Note Purchase Agreement.

In connection with this letter, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the following:

(1)

the Note Purchase Agreement;

(2)

(3)

the Consent Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Consent Agreement”), among MGE, the Company and the Collateral Trustee;

(4)

the Undertaking, dated as of the date hereof (the “Undertaking”), made by MGE Energy for the benefit of the Company and the Secured Parties referred to therein;

(5)

the Subordination Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Subordination Agreement”), between MGE Power and the Company; and

(6)

the Notes, dated the date hereof, in the principal amount and registered in the names of the Purchasers as set forth on Schedule A to the Note Purchase Agreement, executed by the Company.

EXHIBIT 4.4(b)
(to Note Purchase Agreement)

The foregoing documents (other than the Notes) are referred to herein collectively as the “Transaction Agreements”; the Transaction Agreements and the Notes are referred to herein collectively as the “Transaction Documents”; and the Company, MGE, MGE Energy and MGE Power are collectively referred to as the “Transaction Parties.” “Applicable Law” means those Wisconsin laws, rules and regulations that, in our experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Transaction Documents, without our having made any special investigation as to the applicability of any specific law, rule or regulation. "Company Documents" means those Transaction Documents and Project Agreements to which the Company is a party. "MGE Documents" means the Consent Agreement and those Project Agreements to which MGE is a party.

All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Note Purchase Agreement.

We have assumed for purposes of the opinions hereinafter set forth (a) that the Transaction Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the parties thereto other than the Transaction Parties and (b) that each of the parties thereto, other than the Transaction Parties, is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of its respective jurisdiction of organization and has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform each Transaction Document to which such Person is a party.

In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have examined originals or copies authenticated or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of such public, corporate and limited liability company records and other instruments, certificates of public officials and of officers, managers and representatives of the Transaction Parties and other documents, and have made such other investigation of fact and law, as we have deemed necessary in connection with the opinions hereinafter expressed. In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity with the original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. We have relied, as to factual matters only, on representations of the Transaction Parties contained in the Transaction Documents and Project Agreements and certificates of managers of the Company and officers of MGE delivered to you in connection therewith; nothing, however, has come to our attention to cause us to believe that any such factual matter is untrue.

The opinions expressed herein are limited to the laws of the State of Wisconsin, and we express no opinions with respect to the laws of any other jurisdiction. We note that certain of the Transaction Documents state that they are to be governed by the internal laws of states other than the State of Wisconsin.

In basing the opinions set forth in this letter on “our knowledge,” the words “our knowledge,” or similar words, signify that, in the course of our representation of the Transaction Parties, no facts have come to our attention that would give us actual knowledge or actual notice that any such opinions or other matters are not accurate. Except as otherwise stated in this opinion, we have undertaken no investigation or verification of such matters. Further, the words “our knowledge” and similar language as used in this opinion are intended to be limited to actual

4.4(b)-2

knowledge of the attorneys within our firm who have been directly involved in representing the Company and MGE in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and the Project Agreements.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications hereinafter set forth, we are of the opinion that:

The Company and MGE Power are limited liability companies validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Wisconsin and have full limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver, and to carry out and perform their obligations under, those Transaction Documents and Project Agreements to which each is a party and consummate the transactions contemplated thereby. MGE Energy and MGE are corporations validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Wisconsin and have full corporate power and authority to execute and deliver, and to carry out and perform their obligations under, those Transaction Documents and Project Agreements to which each is a party and consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

Each of the Transaction Parties is duly qualified to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to qualify or be in good standing of such Transaction Party could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its business, assets or operations or on its ability to perform its obligations under those Transaction Documents and Project Agreements to which it is a party.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Company Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action on the part of the Company. The Company Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the Company.

The execution, delivery and performance by MGE Energy of the Undertaking has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of MGE Energy. The Undertaking has been duly executed and delivered by MGE Energy.

The execution, delivery and performance by MGE of the MGE Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of MGE. The MGE Documents have been duly executed and delivered by MGE.

The execution, delivery and performance by MGE Power of the Subordination Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action on behalf of MGE Power. The Subordination Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by MGE Power.

The Undertaking and each of the Project Agreements to which a Transaction Party is a party constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of that Transaction Party enforceable in accordance with its terms.

The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and Project

4.4(b)-3

Agreements by the Transaction Parties does not, and the performance by the Transaction Parties of their obligations under the Transaction Documents and Project Agreements will not, result in any:

violation or breach of, or conflict with, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Company's or MGE Power's articles of organization or operating agreement, or MGE Energy's or MGE's articles of incorporation or bylaws;

violation or breach of, or conflict with, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any judicial, arbitration or administrative decree, writ, judgment or order to which such Transaction Party is a party or may be bound;

violation or breach of the contractual provisions of, or constitute an event of default or result in the termination of, or accelerate or permit the acceleration of any performance, or require any consent under, any indenture, loan agreement, mortgage, deed, contract or other agreement or instrument to which such Transaction Party is a party or may be bound and which is listed on the attached Schedule II; or

creation or imposition of a Lien in, on or against the assets of any Transaction Party (other than those contemplated or created in connection with the Security Documents) under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, instrument or other agreement listed on the attached Schedule II.

To our knowledge, there are no pending or threatened legal or administrative proceedings which challenge the validity of the Transaction Documents or Project Agreements.

No consent, approval, publication, permit, authorization, exemption, declaration or other action by, or filing, qualification, or registration with, any Governmental Authority of the State of Wisconsin (collectively, "Approvals") is required by the Transaction Parties' execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents and Project Agreements and consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, except for Approvals which have already been made or obtained.

The Collateral Trust Indenture creates, in favor of the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties, a valid security interest in all of the Collateral (as defined in the Collateral Trust Indenture) to the extent a security interest may be created therein under Chapter 409 of the Wisconsin Statutes (other than any of the Collateral consisting of commercial tort claims).

Assuming the Collateral Trustee takes and retains possession (as such term is used in section 409.313(1) of the Wisconsin Statutes) in the State of Wisconsin of the Facility Lease Agreements assigned to the Collateral Trustee pursuant to the Collateral Trust Indenture, the Collateral Trustee's security interest in the Company's rights in the Facility Lease Agreements will be perfected to the extent that the lien and security interest granted thereby or intended to be granted thereby may be perfected as an interest in tangible chattel paper.

4.4(b)-4

The financing statement attached as Exhibit A (the "Company Financing Statement") covering the Collateral is in appropriate form for filing with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions and conforms to all requirements of the laws of the State of Wisconsin for recording or filing thereof.

AA.

Upon the proper filing and recording of the Company Financing Statement with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions, the Collateral Trustee's lien and security interest in the Collateral will be perfected to the extent the lien and security interest granted thereby or intended to be granted thereby may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under Chapter 409 of the Wisconsin Statutes.

BB.

CC.

The Collateral Trust Indenture is in the appropriate form for recording in the offices of the Milwaukee County Register of Deeds and the Racine County Register of Deeds, which are the appropriate recording offices for filing and recordation of the Collateral Trust Indenture. The proper recording of the Collateral Trust Indenture with the Milwaukee County Register of Deeds and the Racine County Register of Deeds (collectively, the "Real Property Recordings") will be sufficient to perfect the Collateral Trustee's lien and security interest in the Facility Lease Agreements to the extent the lien and security interest granted thereby or intended to be granted thereby may be perfected by recording pursuant to section 708.11(2), Wis. Stats.

DD.

EE.

No documentary, stamp, deed of trust, transfer or recording taxes or similar charges will be payable to the State of Wisconsin or to any jurisdiction therein by the Collateral Trustee or any Purchaser on account of (i) the execution or delivery of the Transaction Documents; (ii) the creation of the indebtedness evidenced or secured thereby; (iii) the creation of the liens and security interests thereunder, or (iv) the filing, recording, registration or enforcement of the Company Financing Statement or the Real Property Recordings, except for nominal filing or recording fees.

FF.

GG.

Notwithstanding the express intention of the Company and MGE that the Facility Lease Agreements be treated as true leases, in the event that a Facility Lease Agreement is recharacterized as a loan:

HH.

The filing of the precautionary financing statement attached as Exhibit B (the "Precautionary Financing Statement"), with the Department of Financial Institutions of the State of Wisconsin and the Register of Deeds offices for Milwaukee County and Racine County, is sufficient under the laws of the State of Wisconsin to perfect any security interest of the Company (or the Collateral Trustee, as the assignee of the Company) claimed to arise under the Facility Lease Agreement in and to any portion of the Leased Facility (as defined in such Facility Lease Agreement) comprised of personal property in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under Chapter 409 of the Wisconsin Statutes.

We are unaware of any Wisconsin case law that has addressed the proper means of perfecting a security interest in real property covered by a lease agreement,

4.4(b)-5

should the lease agreement subsequently be recharacterized as a secured loan involving real property interests. Moreover, the State of Wisconsin does not have any statutory provision setting forth the terms that must be included in a document in order for it to constitute a mortgage. Nonetheless, we believe that a Wisconsin court properly presented with the question would more likely than not find that the recording of a memorandum of the Facility Lease Agreement with the Milwaukee County Register of Deeds and the Racine County Register of Deeds offices in the form attached as Exhibit C ("Memorandum of Leases") would be sufficient under the laws of the State of Wisconsin to perfect any security interest of the Company (or the Collateral Trustee, as the assignee of the Company) claimed to arise under such Facility Lease Agreement in and to any portion of the Leased Facility (as defined in such Facility Lease Agreement) that is comprised of real property. We reach this conclusion on the basis that (i) the Memorandum of Leases meets the statutory requirements for a conveyance under Wisconsin law that are identical to the requirements applicable to mortgages and (ii), third parties will have been put on notice of the Company's interest as lessor under the Memorandum of Leases as a result of the recording of the Memorandum of Leases with both the Milwaukee County and Racine County Register of Deeds offices.

II.

The obligations of the Company under the Company Documents do not violate any usury laws of the State of Wisconsin.

JJ.

KK.

The courts of the State of Wisconsin would recognize and give effect to the choice of New York law provisions of the Transaction Documents.

LL.

MM.

Neither the Collateral Trustee nor any Purchaser is required to obtain a Certificate of Authority from the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions to do business in the State of Wisconsin so long as the activities of the Collateral Trustee or Purchaser are limited to the following: lending money or creating or acquiring indebtedness, mortgages and security interests in property; securing or collecting debts or enforcing mortgages and security interests in property securing the debts; and owning, without more, property.

NN.

Our opinions set forth above are modified by and subject to the following qualifications:

The opinions expressed in paragraph 7 as to enforceability and in paragraphs 11 through 15 as to validity of security interests are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer and similar laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally and by general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity); and are further subject to the limitation that the enforceability of any rights to indemnification or contribution may be limited by federal or state securities laws or regulations or by public policy. We note that Section 552 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”), limits the extent to which property acquired by a debtor after the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code is subject to a security interest arising from a security agreement entered into by the debtor before such commencement.

4.4(b)-6

We express no opinion as to the enforceability of provisions in any Project Agreement that (i) attempt to exculpate other parties from liability for future actions, inactions or practices; (ii) purport to establish evidentiary standards; (c) purport to confer subject matter jurisdiction on any court or fix venue; (d) provide for methods of service of process other than in accordance with Applicable Law; (e) relate to severability or separability; (f) relate to payment without set-off or that otherwise purport to make obligations of, or determinations by, any party unconditional and absolute; or (g) provide that terms may not be waived or modified except in writing.

We have assumed that “value” has been given (as such term is used in Section 409.203(2)(a) of the Wisconsin Statutes) and that the Company has sufficient rights to the Collateral in order for the security interest of the Secured Parties to attach thereto, and we express no opinion as to the nature and extent of the Company’s rights in or title to any of the Collateral.

With respect to our opinion in paragraph 8(c), we express no opinion as to whether the incurrence of indebtedness by the Company under the Transaction Documents might result in the violation of any of the financial covenants with respect to financial ratios or tests or any aspect of the financial condition or results of operations of the Company set forth in any of the agreements listed on Schedule II.

Our security interest opinion in paragraph 11 is limited to Chapter 409 of the Wisconsin Statutes. Therefore, that opinion does not address (i) laws of jurisdictions other than Wisconsin; or (ii) laws of Wisconsin except for those described above.

We call to your attention that the security interest created by the Company in proceeds of the Collateral is limited to the extent set forth in Section 409.315 of the Wisconsin Statutes.

We express no opinion as to the actions that will be required to be taken periodically, or as a result of any changes in fact or law after the date hereof, under any Applicable Law in order for the validity of any lien or security interest referred to herein, to be maintained.

4.4(b)-7

supplement this letter to reflect any facts or circumstances which may hereafter come to our attention with respect to the opinions expressed herein, including any changes in Applicable Law which may hereafter occur.

Very truly yours,

February 4, 2010

To the Purchasers described on Schedule A
to the Note Purchase Agreement referred
to below

Re:

$50,000,000 5.04%, Series A, Senior Secured Notes

due February 3, 2010

MGE Power Elm Road, LLC

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as your special counsel in connection with your separate purchases on the date hereof of the $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the 5.04%, Series A, Senior Secured Notes due February 3, 2010 (the “Notes”) of MGE Power Elm Road, LLC, a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the State of Texas (the “Issuer”), issued under and pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, dated February 3, 2010 (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), between the Issuer and the purchasers listed in Schedule A thereto (collectively, the “Purchasers”). All capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Note Purchase Agreement.

In that connection, we have examined the following:

(a)

(b)

the Notes dated the date hereof and registered in the names and principal amounts set forth in Schedule A to the Note Purchase Agreement;

(c)

the Consent Agreement dated as of February 3, 2010 (the “Consent”) among the Issuer, Madison Gas and Electric Company, a Wisconsin company (“MGE”), and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association (the “Trustee”);

(d)

the Subordination Agreement dated as of February 3, 2010 (the “Subordination Agreement”) among the Issuer, MGE Power LLC and the Trustee;

(e)

EXHIBIT 4.4(c)
(to Note Purchase Agreement)

(f)

the Parent Undertaking dated as of February 3, 2009 (the “Parent Undertaking”) from MGE Energy, Inc. (the “Parent” and, together with the Issuer, MGE and MGE Power LLC, collectively, the “Opinion Parties”);

( g )

the opinions of Sidley Austin LLP (the “Sidley Opinion”), as counsel to the Issuer, MGE and Parent, dated the date hereof and delivered responsive to Sections 4.4(a) of the Note Purchase Agreement;

( h )

the opinions of Stafford Rosenbaum LLP (the “Stafford Opinion”, and together with the Sidley Opinion, the “MGE Opinions”), as counsel to the Issuer, MGE and Parent, dated the date hereof and delivered responsive to Sections 4.4(b) of the Note Purchase Agreement;

( i )

such certificates of officers of the Issuer and MGE and of public officials as we have deemed necessary to give the opinions hereinafter expressed;

(j)

such other documents and matters of law as we have deemed necessary to give the opinions hereinafter expressed; and

(k)

a letter, dated February 3, 2009, addressed to MGE, Sidley Austin LLP and us from J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., describing the manner of the offering of the Notes (the “Offeree Letter”).

The documents referred to in clauses (a) - (f) above are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Financing Documents” and individually as a “Financing Document.”

We believe that the MGE Opinions referred to in clauses (g) and (h) above are satisfactory in scope and form and that you are justified in relying thereon. As to all matters of fact we have relied solely upon (a) the representations and warranties of the Opinion Parties and you set forth in the Financing Documents, (b) the certificates of public officials and of the officers of the Opinion Parties and (c) the Offeree Letter, and have assumed, without independent inquiry, the accuracy of such representations, warranties and certificates, and of the Offeree Letter.

We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the conformity to the originals of all documents reviewed by us as copies, the authenticity and completeness of all original documents reviewed by us in original or copy form, the legal competence of each individual executing any document and that each Person executing the Financing Documents validly exists and has the power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Financing Documents. We have assumed that the Financing Documents (i) have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by all Persons party thereto and (ii) are binding upon, and enforceable against, such Persons (other than the Opinion Parties). In addition, we have relied, to the extent of the matters set forth therein, upon the Offeree Letter. We have also assumed that the execution, delivery and performance of the Financing Documents do not violate or result in any breach of the articles of incorporation, by-laws or other similar organizational document of any Opinion Party or violate

4.4(c)-2

or result in any breach of any agreement to which any Opinion Party is subject or require any authorization, consent, approval, exemption or other action by, or notice to or filing with, any governmental authority (excluding the Federal laws of the United States or the laws of the State of New York) which has not been obtained.

For purposes of this opinion, we have made such examination of law as we have deemed necessary. This opinion is limited solely to (a) the internal substantive laws of the State of New York as applied by courts located in the State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles and (b) the federal laws of the United States of America, and we express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction. In addition, we note that the Financing Documents contain provisions stating that they are to be governed by the laws of the State of New York. Except to the extent that such provisions are made enforceable by New York General Obligations Law Section 51401 as applied by New York state courts or federal courts applying New York choice of law rules, no opinion is given herein as to any such provisions, or otherwise as to the choice of law or internal substantive rules of law that any court or other tribunal may apply to the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents.

We express no opinions as to any anti-fraud securities, “blue sky,” anti-trust or tax laws of any jurisdiction.

The opinions set forth below are further subject to the following exceptions, qualifications and assumptions:

(a)

the enforcement of any obligations of any person or entity under the Financing Documents or otherwise may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other laws and rules of law affecting the enforcement generally of creditors’ rights and remedies (including such as may deny giving effect to waivers of debtors’ or guarantors’ rights), and general principles of equity including any implied duty of good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether the application of such principles is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);

(b)

we express no opinion as to the availability of any specific or equitable relief of any kind; and

(c)

we express no opinion as to the enforceability of any particular provision of any of the Financing Documents relating to (i) waivers of rights to object to jurisdiction or venue, consents to jurisdiction or venue, or waivers of rights to (or methods of) service of process, (ii) waivers of an applicable defenses, setoffs, recoupments, or counterclaims, (iii) waivers or variations of legal provisions or rights which are not capable of waiver or variation under applicable law, or (iv) exculpation or exoneration clauses, contribution provisions and clauses relating to releases or waivers of immaterial claims or rights.

Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that:

4.4(c)-3

The Note Purchase Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer, enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with its terms.

The Notes constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Issuer, enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with their terms.

Each of the Consent, Subordination Agreement, Indenture and Parent Undertaking to which the Company is a party constitute a legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms.

The issuance, sale and delivery of the Notes under the circumstances contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement do not, under existing law, require the registration of the Notes under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the qualification of an indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

This opinion is being furnished only to you in connection with the purchase of the Notes pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, and is not to be used, quoted, relied upon or otherwise referred to by any other Person or for any other purposes without our prior written consent, except that this opinion may be reviewed, but not relied upon, by legal and regulatory authorities and may be relied upon as of the date hereof by subsequent holders of the Notes who are Institutional Investors and who have acquired the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement as if such subsequent holders were original addressees hereon. This opinion is based on factual matters in existence as of the date hereof and laws and regulations in effect on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion should such factual matters change or should such laws or regulations be changed by legislative or regulatory action, judicial decision or otherwise.

Respectfully submitted,

Re:

Madison Gas And Electric Company

5.04% Senior Secured Notes, Series A (the “Notes”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to U.S. Bank National Association in connection with the Collateral Trust Indenture, Security and Assignment Agreement, dated as of February 3, 2010 (the “Indenture”), by and among MGE Power Elm Road, LLC (the “Issuer”), the Secured Parties from time to time party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties (the “Collateral Trustee”). This opinion is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 4.4 of that certain Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 3, 2010,

EXHIBIT 4.4(d)
(to Note Purchase Agreement)

among the Issuer, the purchasers (the “Purchasers”) listed on Schedule A thereto (the “Note Purchase Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning given such terms in the Indenture.

We have examined records, documents, instruments, certificates of public officials and of the Collateral Trustee and such questions of law as we have deemed necessary for the purpose of rendering the opinions set forth herein. In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of all items submitted to us as originals and the conformity with originals of all items submitted to us as copies. In making our examination of documents, we have assumed that each party, other than the Collateral Trustee, had the power to enter into and perform all its obligations thereunder and also have assumed the due authorization by it of all requisite action and the execution and delivery of such documents by each such party.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

The Collateral Trustee is a national banking association duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the United States of America, and has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations (in its individual and its trustee capacity) under the Indenture, the Consent Agreement, dated as of February 3, 2010 (the “Consent”), by and among Madison Gas and Electric Company, the Issuer and the Collateral Trustee, the Subordination Agreement, dated as of February 3, 2010 (the “Subordination Agreement”), by and among MGE Power LLC and the Collateral Trustee, and the Undertaking, dated as of February 3, 2010 (the “Undertaking”, and together with the Indenture, the Consent and the Subordination Agreement, the “Trustee Documents”), made by MGE Energy Inc. and accepted by the Issuer and the Collateral Trustee.

The Trustee Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Collateral Trustee and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the other parties thereto, they constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Collateral Trustee enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms.

The execution and delivery of the Trustee Documents and compliance by the Collateral Trustee with the terms thereof, under the circumstances contemplated thereby, do not and will not conflict with or constitute a breach of or default under the Collateral Trustee’s duties under such documents, or any law, administrative regulation, court order or consent decree, resolution, charter, bylaws, or other agreement or instrument known to us to which the Collateral Trustee is subject or by which it is bound.

Neither the execution, delivery nor performance by Collateral Trustee of any of the Trustee Documents requires the consent or approval of, or the giving of notice to or registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any governmental authority of the United States or New York body governing its banking practices.

There is no action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to its best knowledge,

4.4(d)-2

after due inquiry, threatened against or affecting the Collateral Trustee which questions the validity of the Trustee Documents, and there is no action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to its best knowledge, threatened which is likely to result, either in any case or in the aggregate, in any material adverse change in the ability of the Collateral Trustee to perform its obligations under the Trustee Documents.

The opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications and exceptions:

(a)

The opinions are subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws of general application affecting creditors’ rights; and

(b)

The opinions are subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including (without limitation) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and other similar doctrines affecting the enforceability of agreements generally (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, limitations and exceptions set forth herein, we do not have knowledge, without investigation, of any pending or overtly threatened lawsuits or claims against the Collateral Trustee questioning the validity of the Trustee Documents or that would impair materially the ability of the Collateral Trustee to perform its obligations under the Trustee Documents.

Our opinions expressed above are limited to the laws of the State of New York and the federal laws of the United States of America. We assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that hereafter may come to our attention or any changes in law or court decision that may occur after the date hereof. We do not render any opinion with respect to any matter other than those expressly set forth above.

This opinion letter is delivered in connection with the issuance of the Notes, may be relied upon only by each addressee of this opinion letter, in each case in connection with such closing, and may not be relied upon by any of them for any other purpose. Without our prior written consent, this opinion letter may not be furnished to any other person or entity or quoted, published or otherwise disseminated, except (a) pursuant to order or legal process of any court, governmental agency or authority, (b) to any other person or entity as required by applicable law, and (c) transferees of the Notes may receive a copy of our opinion (although they will not be entitled to rely thereon).

Very truly yours,
