After deducting the fee specified in Section 3 below, the proceeds of such Initial Remarketing or Final Remarketing, as the case may be, shall be paid to the Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 5.7 or 7.4 of the Pledge Agreement and Section 5.02 or 5.03 of the Purchase Contract Agreement (each of which Sections are incorporated herein by reference).

Holders of separate Securities who wish to participate in any Additional Remarketing have to deliver their Trust Preferred Securities together with the notice of this election to the Custodial Agent no later than two Business Days following the notification by the Remarketing Agent.

In the event of a Successful Initial Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent shall retain as a Remarketing Fee an amount not exceeding 25 basis points (0.25%) of the Minimum Initial Remarketing Price from any amount received in connection with such Initial Remarketing in excess of the Minimum Initial Remarketing Price. In the event of a Successful Final Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent shall retain as the Remarketing Fee an amount not exceeding 25 basis points (0.25%) of the liquidation amount of the remarketed Trust Preferred Securities from any amount received in connection with such Final Remarketing in excess of the aggregate liquidation amount of such remarketed Trust Preferred Securities. In addition, the Reset Agent shall, in either case, receive from the Company a reasonable and customary fee (the "Reset Agent Fee"); provided, however, that if the Remarketing Agent shall also act as the Reset Agent, then the Reset Agent shall not be entitled to receive any such Reset Agent Fee. Payment 5 6 of such Reset Agent Fee shall be made by the Company on the Initial Remarketing Date, in the case of a Successful Initial Remarketing, or on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, in the case of a Successful Final Remarketing, in immediately available funds or, upon the instructions of the Reset Agent, by certified or official bank check or checks or by wire transfer.

(b) Each Underwriter severally agrees that it will indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers, their officers, trustees and directors, and each of them, and each person, if any, who controls any Issuer within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any loss, expense, claim, damage or liability to which it or they may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, expense, claim, damage or liability (or actions in respect thereof) arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any related preliminary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement to any thereof, or arises out of or is based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in any such documents in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by the Representatives, expressly for use in any such document and, except as hereinafter in this Section provided, each Underwriter agrees to reimburse the Issuers, their officers, trustees and directors, and each of them, and each person, if any, who controls any Issuer within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act, for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by it or them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, expense, claim, damage or liability. (c) Upon receipt of notice of the commencement of any action against an indemnified party, the indemnified party shall, with reasonable promptness, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under its agreement contained in this Section 7, notify such indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to the indemnified party otherwise than under its agreement contained in this Section 7. In the case of any such notice to an indemnifying party, it shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense, or if it so elects, to assume the defense, of any such action, but, if it elects to assume the defense, such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by it and satisfactory to the indemnified party and to any other indemnifying party, defendant in the suit, and the indemnifying party shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such 15 16 proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(a), and by the Company, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(b). No indemnifying party shall be liable in the event of any settlement of any such action effected without its consent except as provided in Section 7(e) hereof. Each indemnified party agrees promptly to notify each indemnifying party of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against it in connection with the issue and sale of the Securities. (d) If any Underwriter or person entitled to indemnification by the terms of subsection (a) of this Section 7 shall have given notice to any Issuer of a claim in respect thereof pursuant to Section 7(c) hereunder, and if such claim for indemnification is thereafter held by a court to be unavailable for any reason other than by reason of the terms of this Section 7 or if such claim is unavailable under controlling precedent, such Underwriter or person shall be entitled to contribution from the Issuers to liabilities and expenses, except to the extent that contribution is not permitted under Section 11(f) of the Securities Act. In determining the amount of contribution to which such Underwriter or person is entitled, there shall be considered the relative benefits received by such Underwriter or person and the Issuers from the offering of the Securities that were the subject of the claim for indemnification (taking into account the portion of the proceeds of the offering realized by each), such Underwriter's or person's and the Issuers' knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission, and any other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances. The Issuers and the Underwriters agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose). (e) No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 7 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party and all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim, and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or the failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 16 17 (f) The indemnity and contribution provided for in this Section 7 and the representations and warranties of the Issuers and the several Underwriters set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter, the Issuers, their directors, trustees or officers or any person controlling any of them, (ii) acceptance of any Securities and payment therefor under this Agreement, and (iii) any termination of this Agreement. Section 8. Resignation and Removal of the Remarketing Agent. The Remarketing Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder, and the Company or the Trust may remove the Remarketing Agent, by giving 60 days' prior written notice, in the case of a resignation, to the Company, the Depositary, the Property Trustee, the Trust and the Indenture Trustee and, in the case of a removal, the removed Remarketing Agent, the Depositary, the Property Trustee, the Trust and the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that: (a) the Company may not remove the Remarketing Agent unless (1) the Remarketing Agent becomes involved as a debtor in a bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, (2) the Remarketing Agent shall not be among the 15 underwriters with the largest volume underwritten in dollars, on a lead or co-managed basis, of U.S. domestic debt securities during the twelve-month period ended as of the last calendar quarter preceding the Remarketing Date, (3) the Remarketing Agent shall be subject to one or more legal restrictions preventing the performance of its obligations hereunder, or (4) the Remarketing Agent shall determine that (i) the Company has not met its obligation under Section 6(d) or (ii) using its reasonable efforts, the Remarketing Agent would be unable to consummate the Remarketing on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus and the Remarketing Materials; (b) the Remarketing Agent may not resign without reasonable cause; and (c) no such resignation nor any such removal shall become effective until the Company shall have appointed at least one nationally recognized broker-dealer as successor Remarketing Agent and such successor Remarketing Agent shall have entered into a remarketing agreement with the Company, the Trust, and PPL Capital Funding, in which it shall have agreed to conduct the Remarketing in accordance with the Remarketing Procedures in all material respects. In any such case, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to appoint a successor Remarketing Agent and enter into such a remarketing agreement with such person as soon as reasonably practicable. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 shall survive the resignation or removal of any Remarketing Agent pursuant to this Agreement. Section 9. Dealing in the Remarketed Trust Preferred Securities. The Remarketing Agent, when acting as a Remarketing Agent or in its individual or any other capacity, may, to the extent permitted by law, buy, sell, hold and deal in any of the Remarketed Trust Preferred Securities. The Remarketing Agent may exercise any vote or join in 17 18 any action which any beneficial owner of Remarketed Trust Preferred Securities may be entitled to exercise or take pursuant to the Trust Agreement with like effect as if it did not act in any capacity hereunder. The Remarketing Agent, in its individual capacity, either as principal or agent, may also engage in or have an interest in any financial or other transaction with the Company as freely as if it did not act in any capacity hereunder. Section 10. Remarketing Agent's Performance; Duty of Care. The duties and obligations of the Remarketing Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the Purchase Contract Agreement. No implied covenants or obligations of or against the Remarketing Agent shall be read into this Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or the Purchase Contract Agreement. In the absence of bad faith on the part of the Remarketing Agent, the Remarketing Agent may conclusively rely upon any document furnished to it, as to the truth of the statements expressed in any of such documents. The Remarketing Agent shall be protected in acting upon any document or communication reasonably believed by it to have been signed, presented or made by the proper party or parties except as otherwise set forth herein. The Remarketing Agent, acting under this Agreement, shall incur no liability to the Company, the Trust or to any holder of Remarketed Trust Preferred Securities in its individual capacity or as Remarketing Agent for any action or failure to act, on its part in connection with a Remarketing or otherwise, except if such liability is judicially determined to have resulted from its failure to comply with the material terms of this Agreement or the gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part. Section 11. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate as to the Remarketing Agent on the effective date of the resignation or removal of the Remarketing Agent pursuant to Section 8. In addition, this Agreement may be terminated (a) by the Company, or the Trust or PPL Capital Funding, as the case may be, by notifying the Remarketing Agent at any time before the time when the Remarketed Trust Preferred Securities are first generally offered by the Remarketing Agent to dealers by letter or telegram, or (b) by the Remarketing Agent by notifying the Company, PPL Capital Funding and the Trust at or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) five business days prior to the Remarketing Date by letter or telegram if any of the conditions described in Section 6 are not satisfied. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any of the provisions hereof, except as otherwise provided herein, the Company shall not be under any liability to the Remarketing Agent and the Remarketing Agent shall not be under any liability to the Company, except that (a) if this Agreement is terminated by the Remarketing Agent because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, the Company will reimburse the Remarking Agent for all of its out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of its counsel) reasonably incurred by it, and (b) if the Remarketing Agent failed or refused to purchase the Remarketed Trust Preferred Securities hereunder, without some reason sufficient hereunder to justify the cancellation or termination of if obligations hereunder, the Remarketing Agent shall not be relieved of liability to the Company for damages occasioned by its default. 18 19 Section 12. Notices. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and: (a) if to the Remarketing Agent, shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to Morgan Stanley & Co.
