 and an annual opinion as to recording, filing, re-recordingand re-filingof the mortgage and supplements thereto. (Article XA, Section 3) DTE Electric is also required to furnish to the mortgage trustee an annual certificate of its officers as to compliance with certain provisions of the mortgage. (Article V, Section 19) Provisions Applicable to All Debt Securities Other Than Mortgage Bonds We may issue the debt securities in one or more series with the same or various maturities. (Section 301) We may issue debt securities solely in fully registered form as registered securities without coupons, solely in bearer form as bearer securities with or without coupons, or both as registered securities and bearer securities. (Section 301) Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, principal and interest, if any, on the debt securities offered thereby are to be payable at the office or agency of DTE Electric maintained for such purposes in the city where the principal corporate trust office of the indenture trustee is located, and will initially be the principal corporate trust office of the indenture trustee, provided that payment of interest, if any, may be made at the option of DTE Electric by check mailed to the persons in whose names the debt securities are registered at the close of business on the day specified in the prospectus supplement accompanying this prospectus. However, if we default in paying interest on a debt security, we will pay defaulted interest in either of the two following ways:

| • |     | We will first propose to the indenture trustee a payment date for such defaulted interest and we will deposit                                                                                                                                     
 with the paying agent an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest. Next, the indenture trustee will choose a special record date for determining which Holders are entitled to the 
 payment. The special record date will be 10 days before the payment date we propose. Finally, the paying agent will pay such defaulted interest on the payment date to the holder of the debt security as of the close of business on the special 
 record date; or                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |

| • |     | Alternatively, we can propose to the indenture trustee any other lawful manner of payment that is consistent with                                                                                                  
 the requirements of any securities exchange on which such debt securities are listed for trading. If the indenture trustee thinks the proposal is practicable, payment will be made as proposed. (See Section 307) |
