(d)the amount remaining after deducting the sum of the amounts stated pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) above from the amount stated pursuant to clause (a) above;

(e)the amount which is 1% of the amount stated pursuant to clause (d) above; and

(f)(i) an aggregate principal amount of bond(s) or fraction of a bond, not to exceed $162,000 principal amount for any such year, the authentication and delivery of which the Company has theretofore waived in compliance with Section 2 of the Second or Third Supplemental Indenture upon the basis of Property Additions, which waiver or waivers shall not theretofore have been used as a credit under this clause (i); plus (ii) an aggregate principal amount of bond(s) or fraction of a bond to the authentication and delivery of which the Company shall then be entitled on the basis of Property Additions or on the basis of the retirement of bonds of the Thirtieth Series by virtue of compliance with all applicable provisions of the Mortgage (except as hereinafter in this Section otherwise provided) if the Company elects to make its right to the authentication and delivery of such bond(s) or fraction of a bond the basis of a credit under this Section.

(B)An amount in cash and/or principal amount of bonds of the Thirtieth Series equivalent to the amount stated in the Officers’ Certificate (due on or before October 1 of such year) provided for by this Section pursuant to the requirements of clause (e) of subdivision (A) of this Section; provided, however, that, against the amount of cash or bonds payable or deliverable pursuant to this paragraph (B), there shall be credited the principal amount of the Bonds which shall be stated in such Officers’ Certificate pursuant to the requirements of clause (f) of subdivision (A) of this Section.

Such cash together with any bonds of the Thirtieth Series delivered to the Corporate Trustee under the provisions of this Section shall be dealt with as provided for by this Section.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture or of the Mortgage, (i) the Company shall be permitted from time to time to anticipate in whole or in part the requirements of this Section becoming due on October 1 of the then current year or any subsequent year or years by depositing cash and/or a principal amount of bonds of the Thirtieth Series with the Corporate Trustee in full satisfaction or in partial satisfaction of the requirements of this Section and (ii) any cash so deposited, whether in full satisfaction or in partial satisfaction of the requirements of this Section and whether becoming due on October 1 of the then current year or of a subsequent year, may be from time to time withdrawn, used or applied in the manner, to the extent, for the purposes and subject to the conditions provided in Section 31 of the Mortgage or in subdivision (3) and/or (4) of Section 61 of the Mortgage; provided, however, that the retirement of no bonds of any series other than the Thirtieth Series shall be made the basis of the withdrawal of cash deposited under this Section; and provided further, that no bonds of any series other than the Thirtieth Series shall be purchased or redeemed with cash deposited under the provisions of this Section and that no bonds of the Thirtieth Series shall be purchased with cash deposited under this Section at such price (including accrued interest and brokerage) that the cost thereof to the Company is in excess of the cost of redeeming such bonds on a date 40 days after the date of such purchase (including premium, if any, and accrued interest from the interest date next preceding the date of purchase to such redemption date in such cost); and provided further, that the Company may not deposit cash prior to July 1, 1983 in anticipation of the requirements of this Section if the cash so deposited represents borrowed funds, or is in anticipation of funds to be borrowed, having an effective interest cost to the Company (computed in accordance with generally accepted financial practice) of less than 9.8168% per annum.

In case credit under the provisions of this Section is applied for in whole or in part upon the basis of the right to the authentication and delivery of bonds, the Company shall comply with all applicable provisions of the Mortgage relating to such authentication and delivery, except that the Company shall not be required

to comply with any earning requirements or to deliver to the Corporate Trustee any Resolution, Officers’ Certificate, Net Earning Certificate or Opinion of Counsel such as are described in subdivisions (1), (2), (6) and (8) of Section 28 of the Mortgage.

So long as any bonds of the Thirtieth Series shall remain Outstanding, any election by the Company pursuant to clause (f) of subdivision (A) of this Section to make its right to the authentication and delivery of any bond(s) or fraction of a bond the basis of a credit under this Section shall operate as a waiver by the Company of its right to the authentication and delivery of such bond(s) or fraction of a bond and such bond(s) or fraction of a bond may not thereafter be authenticated and delivered under the Mortgage, and any Property Additions which have been made the basis of any such right to the authentication and delivery of bond(s) or fraction of a bond so waived shall have the status of Funded Property and shall be deemed to have been made the basis of a credit under this Section.

For all purposes of the Mortgage (including all calculations thereunder), so long as any bonds of the Thirtieth Series remain Outstanding, as defined in Section 2 of the Mortgage:

(I)any cash deposited under the provisions of Section 40 of the Mortgage or under Section 2 of the First through Fifteenth and Seventeenth through Twenty‑ninth Supplemental Indentures or under this Section shall be deemed to be Funded Cash;

(II)any bonds of the First Series delivered to the Corporate Trustee under the provisions of Section 40 of the Mortgage and any bonds of the Second through Twenty-ninth Series delivered to the Corporate Trustee under the provisions of Section 2 of the First through Fifteenth and Seventeenth through Twenty-ninth Supplemental Indentures, respectively, and any bonds of the Thirtieth Series delivered to the Corporate Trustee under the provisions of this Section shall, after such delivery, be deemed to have been retired by the use of Funded Cash; and

(III)with respect to all credits taken under Section 40 of the Mortgage, or Section 2 of the First through Fifteenth and Seventeenth through Twenty-ninth Supplemental Indentures or under this Section on the basis of waivers of the right to the authentication and delivery of bonds or otherwise, it shall be deemed that a credit has been taken under the Mortgage, as supplemented, on the basis thereof.

Any bonds issued under the Mortgage, delivered to, deposited with or purchased or redeemed by, the Corporate Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall forthwith be cancelled by the Corporate Trustee.

The Company shall forthwith from time to time on demand of the Corporate Trustee make further payments pursuant to the provisions of this Section on account of accrued interest, brokerage and premium, if any, on bonds of the Thirtieth Series purchased or redeemed or then to be purchased or redeemed but not in excess of

(AA) the aggregate cost of principal, interest, brokerage and premium, if any, on all bonds theretofore or then to be purchased and/or redeemed pursuant to the provisions of this Section:

after deducting therefrom

(BB) the aggregate principal amount of all bonds theretofore, and of all bonds then to be, purchased and/or redeemed pursuant to the provisions of this Section, plus the aggregate of all such

further payments theretofore made pursuant to the provisions of this Section on account of accrued interest, brokerage and/or premium, if any.

Any excess of cash deposited solely pursuant to the provisions of subsection (II) of Section 3 of the Third Supplemental Indenture plus the amount held in reserve pursuant to the latest Officers’ Certificate of Cumulative Excesses over the amount

For the purpose of this subsection (III) the aggregate amount credited subsequent to June 30, 1978 to retained earnings shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices after making provision for dividends upon any preferred stock of the Company, accumulated subsequent to such date, but in such determination there shall not be considered charges to retained earnings applicable to the period prior to June 30, 1978, including, but not limited to, charges to retained earnings for write-offs or write-downs of book values of assets owned by the Company on June 30, 1978.
