RESTATED INDENTURE OF MORTGAGE, DEED OF TRUST, SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FINANCING
STATEMENT, dated as of November 20, 2007, between CHEYENNE LIGHT, FUEL AND POWER
COMPANY, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of
Wyoming (hereinafter called the "Company") having its principal office at
No. 108 West 18th Street, Cheyenne, Wyoming, party of the first part, and WELLS
FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association organized and
existing under the laws of the United States of America and authorized to accept
and execute trusts (hereinafter called the "Trustee"), having its principal
office at 1740 Broadway, Denver, Colorado, party of the second part.

RECITALS

In order to secure an authorized issue of First Mortgage Bonds of the Company,
the Company has executed and delivered an Indenture of Mortgage and Deed of
Trust to The United States National Bank of Denver as Trustee, dated March 1,
1948, hereinafter referred to as the "Original Indenture."

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, is the successor Trustee as the result
of consolidation of The United States National Bank of Denver followed by a
series of subsequent name changes and mergers leading to the Trustee as the
current successor.

Subsequent to the execution of the Original Indenture, the Company has executed
nine various supplemental indentures providing for the issuance of additional
series of Bonds and supplementing and modifying the Original Indenture, which,
as supplemented and amended by said nine supplemental indentures, is referred to
herein as the "Restated Indenture".

Pursuant to the provisions of the Original Indenture, First Mortgage Bonds have
been duly issued and are presently outstanding and secured by the Original
Indenture, and continue to be secured by this Restated Indenture as follows:

Series
Principal Amount
Outstanding
 
 
Bonds of the 2024 Series, 7.50%, due January 1, 2024
7,200,000

1997A Revenue Bonds, Adjustable Rate, due March 1, 2027
10,000,000

1997B Refunding Bonds, Adjustable Rate, due September 1, 2021
7,000,000

Bonds of the Series 2007, 6.67%, due November 20, 2037
110,000,000

 
 

                                    
Because of the extensive amendments contained in the first eight supplemental
indentures and the complexities in reading and interpreting the Original
Indenture resulting therefrom, the Company issued the Ninth Supplemental
Indenture which further amended the Original Indenture and which caused the
Original Indenture to be amended and restated to constitute one instrument which
completely states the agreement of the parties hereto as of the date hereof.

The Company, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred upon and
reserved to it under and by virtue of the provisions of the Indenture (as
hereinafter defined), and pursuant to

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

resolutions of its Board of Directors, has duly resolved and determined to make,
execute and deliver to the Trustee this Restated Indenture in the form hereof

the lien of the Original Indenture which now continues under the Restated
Indenture.

time to time for its corporate purposes and to issue therefor its bonds and
other obligations, and to secure the prompt payment thereof by mortgage and/or
pledge of its franchise rights, privileges and properties hereinafter described;

its bonds to be known as its First Mortgage Bonds (herein called the "Bonds"),
as hereinafter provided; and

WHEREAS, the Bonds are to be issued in fully registered form without coupons
(hereinafter called "registered Bonds"), and may be in such denominations as
shall be determined prior to the issuance thereof; and

WHEREAS, the Bonds are to be in one or more series, each series to be dated as
of such date or dates, to bear such rate of interest, to mature at such time or
times, to bear such designation, and to contain such other specifications and
provisions as are hereinafter in this Restated Indenture provided or permitted;
and

WHEREAS, the Company under and pursuant to the power and authority aforesaid has
determined to secure the prompt payment of the principal of and interest and
premium, if any, on all the Bonds by executing and delivering to the Trustee an
Indenture of Mortgage, Deed of Trust, Security Agreement and Financing Statement
in the terms of this Restated Indenture, mortgaging and pledging the hereinafter
described property; and

WHEREAS, the execution of this Restated Indenture has been duly authorized and
all other things necessary to constitute this Restated Indenture a valid
mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement and financing statement to secure
the payment of the principal of and interest and premium, if any, on all Bonds
to be issued hereunder have been done and performed, and the creation, execution
and delivery of this Restated Indenture, and the creation, execution and issue
of the Bonds to be initially issued hereunder, have in all respects been duly
authorized; and

WHEREAS, the registered Bonds and the Trustee's certificate to be endorsed
thereon, of whatever series, are to be substantially in the following form,

(hereinafter called the “Restated Indenture”) executed by the Company to WELLS
FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (herein called the “Trustee”), as Trustee,
dated November 20, 2007, to which Restated Indenture and to all indentures

change shall be made which would (i) reduce the principal of, or the rate of
interest payable on, the Bonds, or (ii) postpone the maturity date fixed in the
Restated Indenture or in the Bonds for the payment of the principal of, or any
installment of interest on, the Bonds, or (iii) reduce the percentage of the

deprive the holder hereof of the lien of the Restated Indenture upon the
mortgaged property.

(Here insert reference to redemption if Bonds of a particular series are
redeemable and to sinking or other fund if such Bonds are entitled thereto.)

In case an event of default as defined in the Restated Indenture shall occur and
be continuing, the principal of all the Bonds outstanding may be declared and
may become due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the
Restated Indenture.

Restated Indenture.

Bond is registered on such books as the absolute owner hereof (whether or not
this Bond shall be overdue) for the purpose of receiving payment hereof, and on
account hereof and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the
Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

(Here insert provisions for exchangeability, if any.)

Bond, or in respect of this Bond or the Restated Indenture, against any
incorporator, stockholder, officer, or director, as such, past, present or
future, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, either

not Funded Property) disposed of pursuant to Paragraph (2) of Section 10.01 or
to repair, replace or restore insured property (whether or not Funded Property)
the proceeds of the insurance on which shall not have been required to be paid
to the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.07;

21

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)    when used with reference to Additions Credits, that the Additions Credits
in question have not in any other previous or then pending application been made
the basis for the authentication and delivery of Bonds or the withdrawal of any
cash (whether or not Funded Cash) from the Trustee or for any credit in lieu of
cash under any provisions of this Restated Indenture; and

(c)    when used with reference to Bonds, that the Bonds in question have not,
in any other previous or then pending application been made the basis for the
withdrawal of any cash (whether or not Funded Cash) from the Trustee or from a
trustee or other holder of a prior lien and have not been redeemed or paid
through the application of cash (whether or not Funded Cash) by the Trustee or
the trustee or other holder of a prior lien, and that such Bonds have not been
retired through the operations of any provisions for an amortization,
improvement, renewal, sinking, or other analogous fund contained in any
indenture supplemental hereto, and have not been cancelled upon the issuance of
other Bonds in exchange or substitution therefor, and have not been made the
basis of any application pursuant to Article VI.

The fact that property has theretofore become subject to the lien of this
Restated Indenture, or is required so to be, shall not be deemed to mean that
the same has "theretofore been used by the Company for any purpose of this
Restated Indenture" within the meaning of this Section 1.02.

SECTION 1.03. Determinations of Earnings. Subject to the provisions of
Sections 1.01(gg) and (hh), all determinations of earnings pursuant to this
Restated Indenture shall be made and all financial statements to be delivered
hereunder shall be prepared in accordance with the practice lawfully prescribed
by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Company or other
lawfully prescribed practice and, in the absence of any practice so prescribed,
in accordance with sound accounting practice.

SECTION 1.04. Applications, Certificates and/or Reports. Wherever in this
Restated Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report
to the Trustee hereunder, it is provided that the Company shall deliver
certificates, opinions, reports and/or other documents as a condition of the
granting of such application, or as evidence of compliance with any condition or
covenants herein contained, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the
time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such
certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in
such documents shall in each and every such case be conditions precedent to the
right of the Company to have such application granted or to the effectiveness of
such certificate or report. Nevertheless, upon any such application, certificate
or report, the documents required by any of the provisions of this Restated
Indenture to be delivered to the Trustee as a condition of the granting of such
application, or as evidence of such compliance, may, subject to the provisions
of Section 14.01, be received by the Trustee as conclusive evidence of any
statement therein contained, and shall be full warrant, authority and protection
to the Trustee acting on the faith thereof. Before granting any such
application, or accepting such evidence of compliance, the Trustee in its
discretion may make such independent inquiry or investigation as to it may seem
proper into the truth and accuracy of the matters evidenced by any such
document. If the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry, it shall
be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, either
itself or by agent or attorney, and unless satisfied, with or without such
examination, of the truth and accuracy of the matters stated in such documents,
it shall be under no obligation to grant

22

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the application or to accept such evidence of compliance. The reasonable
expenses of such examination or other inquiry shall be paid by the Company, or
if paid by the Trustee shall be repaid by the Company, upon demand.

SECTION 1.05. General References. References by number in this Restated
Indenture to any Article or Section shall be construed as referring to the

SECTION 1.06. Separate Certificates, Opinions and Other Documents. Whenever in
this Restated Indenture provision is made for the delivery to the Trustee of any
certificate, opinion or other document signed by an officer or officers of the
Company or by any other person, such provision may be complied with by delivery
of more than one certificate or opinion or other document, each covering a
particular part of the matter or matters required to be included in the
certificate or opinion or other document so provided for, and in such event such
separate certificates, opinions or other documents need not all be signed by the
same officers or persons, provided that such separate certificates, opinions or

FORM, EXECUTION, DELIVERY,
REGISTRATION AND EXCHANGE OF BONDS

SECTION 3.01. Signature of Bonds. All Bonds to be secured hereby shall be signed
by the President or a Vice President of the Company, whose signature may be a
facsimile, and the corporate seal of the Company shall be thereto affixed and
attested by its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, whose signature may be a
facsimile. The corporate seal of the Company may be affixed to any Bond by
printing, engraving, lithographing, stamping or otherwise making, placing or
affixing upon such Bond, by any process whatever, an impression, facsimile or
other reproduction of such corporate seal. In case any officer who shall sign or
seal any Bond as aforesaid shall cease to be such officer before the Bond so
signed or sealed shall have been actually authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee, such Bond may, nevertheless, upon the request of the Company, be
issued, authenticated and delivered as though such person had not ceased to be
an officer of the Company. Any Bond secured hereby may be signed or sealed by
any person who may be an officer of the

25

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Company at the time of such signing or sealing, although such person may not
have been such officer at the date of such Bond.

SECTION 3.02. Numbering and Designation of Bonds. Any Bonds which may be
authenticated under this Restated Indenture shall be numbered in such manner as
may be determined by the Company and approved by the Trustee. Any such Bond may
bear such additional letter or letters and/or other designation or designations
and may contain therein or have imprinted thereon such legend or legends as may
be required in order to comply with any law or with any rules or regulations
made pursuant thereto or with the rules or regulations of any stock exchange or
of the Securities and Exchange Commission or to conform to usage.

SECTION 3.03. Delivery and Authentication of Bonds. All Bonds, when executed by
the Company, shall be delivered to the Trustee, to be authenticated by it, and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the same only as provided in this
Restated Indenture. Only such Bonds as shall bear thereon the certificate of the
Trustee, duly signed, shall be secured by this Restated Indenture or entitled to
any lien or benefit hereunder, and such certificate of the Trustee upon any such
Bond executed on behalf of the Company shall be conclusive evidence and the only
evidence that the Bond so authenticated has been duly issued hereunder and is
entitled to the benefits of the trust hereby created.

SECTION 3.04. Series of Bonds. At the option of the Company the Bonds may be
issued in one or more series. The Bonds of any series which may be issued
hereunder shall be substantially in the same form as the General Form of Bond
hereinbefore set forth, subject to such variations, additions, substitutions and
omissions as are required or permitted by this Restated Indenture. The
certificate of the Trustee for the authentication of Bonds shall in each case be
substantially in the same form as the form thereof hereinbefore set forth. The
Bonds of any series may (1) be of such denomination or denominations, (2) bear
such rate of interest, payable on such interest payment dates, (3) mature at
such time, and in the case of Bonds of serial maturities, at such times, (4) be
payable and/or subject to registration and transfer at such place or places,
(5) contain such provisions as to payment of, or payment without deduction for,
or reimbursement for, any tax or taxes, (6) contain such provisions respecting

stock or other securities, (7) be redeemable upon such terms, (8) be payable in
such currency or currencies, and (9) contain such other provisions not
inconsistent with the terms of this Restated Indenture as may be specified in
such Bonds and in the resolutions of the Board of Directors and in the
supplemental indenture providing for the issue of such series. All Bonds of any
one series shall be identical in all respects, except that they may differ as to
date and, in the case of Bonds with serial maturities, as to time of maturity,
interest rate and redemption price.

SECTION 3.05. Preference of Bonds. No series of Bonds issued hereunder shall
have any preference as to the security afforded by this Restated Indenture over
any other series of Bonds issued or to be issued hereunder, and no Bond of any
series shall have any such preference over any other Bond of the same or any
other series; provided, however, that the Company at any time may establish
sinking, amortization, improvement, renewal or other analogous fund or funds for
the exclusive benefit of any particular series (one or more) of such Bonds or
make other provision for the amortization thereof, and the holders of any Bonds
other than those for whose exclusive

26

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

benefit any such sinking, amortization, improvement, renewal or other analogous
fund or funds shall have been so established shall have no interest therein or
benefit therefrom, whether upon default under the provisions of this Restated
Indenture or otherwise.

SECTION 3.06. Supplemental Indentures. Whenever the Company shall determine to
create a new series of Bonds secured by this Restated Indenture, it shall file
with the Trustee a Resolution authorizing such series, and shall execute,

whole or in part, at the option of the Company and, if other than by a
Resolution, the manner in which any election by the Company to redeem the Bonds
shall be evidenced;

(8) the right, option or obligation, if any, of the Company to prepay, redeem or
purchase any Bonds of the series pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous
provisions or at the option of the Holder thereof and the period or periods
within which, the price or prices at which and the terms and conditions upon
which any Bonds of the series shall be prepaid, redeemed or purchased, in whole
or in part, pursuant to such obligation;

(9) if other than denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof, the

27

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(10) if the amount of principal of or any premium or interest on any Bonds of

formula, the manner in which such amounts shall be determined;

respective Depositaries for such Global Bonds, the form of any legend or legends
which shall be borne by any such Global Bond in addition to or in lieu of that
set forth in Section 3.11 and any circumstances in addition to or in lieu of
those set forth in Clause (2) of the last paragraph of Section 3.07 in which any

name or names of persons other than the Depositary for such Global Bond or a
nominee thereof;

28

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SECTION 3.07. Bond Register; Transfer of Bonds; Exchange of Bonds; Global Bonds.
The Company shall cause to be kept at the corporate trust office of the Trustee
a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or
agency of the Company in a place of payment being herein sometimes collectively
referred to as the “Bond Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration
of Bonds and of transfers of Bonds. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Bond
Registrar” for the purpose of registering Bonds and transfers of Bonds as herein
provided.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Bond of a series at the
office or agency of the Company in a place of payment for that series, the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the
name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Bonds of the
same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate
principal amount.

At the option of the Holder, Bonds of any series may be exchanged for other
Bonds of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and
aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Bonds to be exchanged at such
office or agency. Whenever any Bonds are so surrendered for exchange, the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Bonds
which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Bonds issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Bonds shall be
the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to
the same benefits under this Restated Indenture, as the Bonds surrendered upon
such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Bond presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange
shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Company and the Bond Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or its
attorney duly authorized in writing.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Bonds, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax
or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any
registration of transfer or exchange of Bonds.

As to any registered Bond, the registered holder shall for all the purposes of
this Restated Indenture be regarded as the owner thereof and the payment of or
on account of the principal of such Bond shall be made only to such registered
holder or upon his or its order and all such payments shall be valid and
effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Bond to the extent of
the sum or sums so paid.

The provisions of Clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4) below shall apply only to Global
Bonds:

(1) Each Global Bond authenticated under this Restated Indenture shall be
registered in the name of the Depositary designated for such Global Bond or a
nominee thereof and

29

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and
each such Global Bond shall constitute a single Bond for all purposes of this
Restated Indenture.

(2) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Restated Indenture, no Global
Bond may be exchanged in whole or in part for Bonds registered, and no transfer
of a Global Bond in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any
person other than the Depositary for such Global Bond or a nominee thereof
unless (A) such Depositary (i) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or
unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Bond or (ii) has ceased to be a
clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, (B) there shall have occurred
and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Bond or (C)
there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to or in lieu of the
foregoing as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section
3.06.

(3) Subject to Clause (2) above, any exchange of a Global Bond for other Bonds
may be made in whole or in part, and all Bonds issued in exchange for a Global
Bond or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depositary
for such Global Bond shall direct.

(4) Every Bond authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or
in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Bond or any portion thereof, whether
pursuant to this Section or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in
the form of, and shall be, a Global Bond, unless such Bond is registered in the
name of a person other than the Depositary for such Global Bond or a nominee
thereof.

SECTION 3.08. Temporary Bonds. Pending the preparation of any definitive Bonds
to be issued under and secured by this Restated Indenture, the Company may
execute and deliver temporary printed Bonds, substantially of the tenor of the
definitive Bonds, in denominations of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) and/or any
multiple thereof. Temporary Bonds may be issued without the provision entitling
the holder to register the Bonds or a recital of specific redemption prices, and
may contain such reference to any provision of this Restated Indenture as may be
appropriate; and the text of the temporary Bonds may express the interest rate
of the Bonds and the series thereof by reference to the title of the Bonds. Any
such temporary Bonds shall be authenticated by the Trustee in the same manner as
the definitive Bonds and such authentication shall constitute conclusive
evidence that the temporary Bonds so authenticated have been duly issued under
this Restated Indenture and that the holders thereof are entitled to the
benefits of the trust hereby created. Such temporary Bonds issued and
authenticated as aforesaid shall be exchangeable without expense to the holder
for definitive Bonds of the same series and maturity to be issued under and
secured by this Restated Indenture, and upon any such exchange such temporary
Bonds shall be forthwith cancelled by the Trustee and delivered to the Company.
Any such temporary Bonds may also be exchanged for other temporary Bonds of the
same series and maturity and for the same aggregate principal amount. Until so
exchanged, said temporary Bonds shall be in all respects entitled to the lien
and security of this Restated Indenture as Bonds issued and authenticated
hereunder. Upon demand, without unnecessary delay the Company will execute and
will furnish definitive Bonds to be exchanged for such temporary Bonds upon
surrender of such temporary Bonds at the office of the Trustee. The Bonds of
each series shall be typewritten, printed, lithographed or engraved or

30

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

produced by any combination of these methods, if required by any securities
exchange or automated quotations system on which the Bonds of such series may be
listed or traded, on steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other
manner permitted by the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation
system on which the Bonds of such series may be listed or traded, as applicable,
all as determined by the officers executing such Bonds, as evidenced by their
execution of such Bonds.

SECTION 3.09. Lost or Stolen Bonds. In case any Bond issued hereunder shall be
mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company may in its discretion issue
and deliver and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Bond of like tenor and date
in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Bond, or
in lieu of and substitution for the Bond so lost, stolen or destroyed, upon
receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee of the ownership
of such Bond and of the loss, theft or destruction of such Bond, and upon
receipt also of indemnity satisfactory to each of them. Any Bonds issued
pursuant to this Section shall constitute original, additional contractual
obligations on the part of the Company and shall be secured equally and ratably
with all other Bonds issued hereunder. Any such new Bond may bear such
endorsement as may be prescribed by the Company, with the approval of the
Trustee, and as may be required to comply with the rules and regulations of any
stock exchange upon which the Bonds are listed or are to be listed or to conform
to any usage with respect thereto.

SECTION 3.10. Rights of Exchanged or Substituted Bonds. Each Bond delivered
pursuant to any provision of this Restated Indenture in exchange or substitution
for the whole or any part, as the case may be, of one or more other Bonds shall
carry all of the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which
were carried by the whole or such part, as the case may be, of such one or more
other Bonds, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Restated Indenture,
such Bond shall bear such date so that neither gain nor loss in interest shall
result from such exchange or substitution.

SECTION 3.11. Legend for Global Bonds. Unless otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 3.06 for the Bonds evidenced thereby, every Global Bond
authenticated and delivered hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the
following form:
 
THIS BOND IS A GLOBAL BOND WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE RESTATED INDENTURE
HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A DEPOSITARY OR A
NOMINEE THEREOF. THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR A
SECURITY REGISTERED, AND NO TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY IN WHOLE OR IN PART MAY BE
REGISTERED, IN THE NAME OF ANY PERSON OTHER THAN SUCH DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE
THEREOF, EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE.
  
SECTION 3.12. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Bonds may use “CUSIP” or
other similar numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee may
use “CUSIP” or such other numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to
Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made
as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Bonds or as
contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on

31

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the other identification numbers printed on the Bonds, in which case neither the
Company nor the Trustee, or any agent of any of them, shall have any liability
in respect of any CUSIP number used on any such notice, and any such redemption
shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers The Company
shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in “CUSIP” numbers.

interest payable on the Bonds or on any other payments secured hereby for any
portion of the taxes assessed against the mortgaged property. No deduction shall

Business and the Electric Business of the Company.

Whenever the holders of not less than a majority in amount of the Bonds shall so
request the Trustee in writing, the Trustee shall select in the exercise of
reasonable care an Independent Engineer of national reputation and the Company
at its own expense shall promptly appoint such Independent Engineer to make an
inspection of the mortgaged property and within a reasonable time after his
appointment to report to the Company and to the Trustee whether or not the
mortgaged property, as an operating system, has been maintained in good repair,
working order and condition in accordance with the covenants hereinabove in this
Section set forth, and whether or not the Company shall have complied with the
covenants in the next preceding paragraph regarding the classification of Funded
Property as Retirements; provided that the Company shall not be obligated to
make more than one such appointment within any period of forty-eight (48)
months.

If such Independent Engineer shall report that the mortgaged property as an
operating system has not been so maintained he shall specify in his report the
character and extent of, and the estimated cost of making good, the deficiency
in such maintenance, and, if longer than one year, the time reasonably necessary
to make good such deficiency. Said report shall be placed on file by the Trustee
and shall be open to inspection by any bondholder at any reasonable time.

The report of such Independent Engineer shall be binding upon the Trustee, the
Company and the bondholders unless, within thirty (30) days after filing of the
report, the Company (by notice in writing to the Trustee) states that such
report is not approved, specifying with reasonable particularity the matters
therein which are not approved. All matters so specified in such notice shall
forthwith be referred to three arbitrators selected in the following manner:

The Trustee, within ten (10) days after receipt of notice, shall name one
arbitrator and give notice of such selection to the Company. Within ten (10)
days after receipt of such notice of selection, the Company shall name one
arbitrator and give notice of such selection to the Trustee, and failure so to
do shall entitle the Trustee to name an arbitrator to represent the Company. The
two thus selected shall, within ten (10) days after the appointment of the
arbitrator representing the Company, select a third arbitrator, but if said
arbitrators are unable within said ten (10) days to agree upon such third
arbitrator then, upon the application of either the Company or the Trustee, the
person

45

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

who is the District Judge of the United States of America for the District of
Wyoming, senior in service, shall have the power to appoint such third
arbitrator upon application to said District Judge by either the Company or the
Trustee on five (5) days notice thereof to the other. Each of such three
arbitrators so selected shall be an Independent Engineer.

The written decision of a majority of such arbitrators shall be filed as soon as
practicable with the Trustee and a copy thereof delivered to the Company, and
shall be binding upon the Trustee, the Company and the bondholders.

If such written decision shall modify the report of the Independent Engineer
which was the subject of arbitration, reference hereinafter in this Section 8.06
to such report of the Independent Engineer shall be deemed to mean the report of
such Independent Engineer as modified by the decision of such arbitrators.
Pending the final determination pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section as to whether or not the mortgaged property has been maintained as an
operating system in good repair, working order and condition, the statements
contained in the report of such Independent Engineer which is the subject of
arbitration shall not be deemed evidence of failure to comply with the
provisions of this Section.

In the computation hereunder of the Net Amount of Property Additions, after any
such report of an Independent Engineer shall have been filed with the Trustee,
the Company shall classify as Retirements, at the amount or amounts which such
report specifies, the property which said report states should be classified as
Retirements for the purpose of such computation and which has not been retired
on the books of the Company.

The Company shall, with all reasonable speed, do such maintenance work as may be
necessary to make good such maintenance deficiency, if any, as shall have been
specified to exist in such report, and upon completion thereof such Independent
Engineer (or, in the case of his refusal or inability to act, some other
Independent Engineer of national reputation selected by the Trustee in the
exercise of reasonable care) shall report in writing to the Trustee that the
maintenance deficiency specified in said report has been made good.

Unless the Trustee shall be so informed in writing by such Independent Engineer
within one year from the date of the report with respect to the maintenance
deficiency (or such longer period as may be specified in such report to be
reasonably necessary for the purpose), that such maintenance deficiency has been
made good, the Company shall be deemed to have defaulted in the due performance
of the covenants of this Section with respect to the maintenance of the
mortgaged property; and in any proceedings consequent upon such default; said
report of such Independent Engineer shall be conclusive evidence against the
Company of the existence of the facts and conditions therein set forth, and the
Trustee shall be fully protected in relying thereon.

All expenses incurred pursuant to this Section shall be borne by the Company.

In the event that any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Company
in the premises shall determine that the expenditures required by this Section
for repairs and maintenance are excessive or shall, by order or regulation,
prohibit, in whole or in part, any such expenditures

46

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

for repairs and maintenance, then, upon filing with the Trustee a certified copy
of such order or a copy of such regulation, as the case may be, the Company
shall, so long as such order or such regulation remains in effect, be relieved
from compliance with the covenants contained in this Section, to the extent that
such expenditures for repairs and maintenance shall have been held excessive or
shall be prohibited.

SECTION 8.07. Insurance; Disposition of Insurance Proceeds. The Company will at
all times keep all its property which is of an insurable nature and of the
character usually insured by companies operating properties similar to the
properties of the Company, insured against loss or damage by fire and from other
causes customarily insured against by similar companies and in such relative
amounts as are usually insured against by such companies. The Company will also
maintain insurance with such insurance companies and associations against loss
or damage from other hazards and risks to its properties, to the property of
others and to the person, of the character usually maintained by companies
engaged in the same or similar business similarly situated; provided, however,
that the Company may effect Workmen's Compensation Insurance with respect to
operations in any particular state or other jurisdiction through an insurance
fund operated by such state or other jurisdiction, or by adequate reserves for
self insurance, if permitted by the laws of such state or other jurisdiction.

All insurance policies covering risks to the mortgaged property shall provide
that if any insurance moneys in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) in
the aggregate are payable in respect of any one loss under all policies covering
such loss, all insurance moneys payable in respect of such loss shall be payable
to the Trustee as its interest may appear. If so requested in writing by the
Trustee, the Company shall cause policies for insurance against risks to the
mortgaged property to be delivered to the Trustee, or in lieu thereof, lists of
such policies showing the numbers of the policies in effect, the names of the
issuing companies, the amounts of such policies, and the property covered by
each.

Whenever any proceeds of insurance representing loss of or damage to any part of
the mortgaged property and aggregating Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or less
in respect of any one loss shall be received by the Company, the Company will
(unless the aggregate proceeds since the beginning of the current calendar year
as to which the provisions of this paragraph are applicable shall be Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or less) within six months thereafter
deliver to the Trustee:

A.    A Certificate of the Company setting forth

(1)    The amount of insurance moneys so received.

(2)    That a specified amount (i) has been applied by the Company to the
replacement, renewal, repair or rebuilding of the destroyed or damaged property
or (ii) is required to pay obligations incurred for the replacement, renewal,
repair or rebuilding of the damaged or destroyed property.

47

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

B.     Cash in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the amount specified in
Clause (1) of the Certificate of the Company delivered pursuant to the foregoing
Paragraph A over the amount specified in Clause (2) of such Certificate of the
Company.

Any insurance moneys received by the Trustee under any of the provisions of this
Section 8.07 shall be held by the Trustee, and shall be paid over to the Company
by the Trustee upon receipt of an Application of the Company so requesting—

(1)    In the case of any loss in an amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000)
or less, such moneys shall be paid over in an amount equal to expenditures made
in repairing or replacing the damaged or destroyed property for which such
insurance moneys were paid, or the fair value to the Company of such repairs or
replacements, whichever shall be the lesser amount, upon receipt by the Trustee
of a Certificate of the Company, signed also by an Engineer, showing the
expenditures made for such purposes and stating that the fair value to the
Company of such repairs or replacements is not less than the expenditures so
made.

(2)    In the case of any loss in an amount greater than Ten Million Dollars
($10,000,000), and also, at the option of the Company, in the case of any loss
in an amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) or less, such moneys shall be
paid over in an amount equal to the Gross Amount of Property Additions shown in
the Property Additions Certificate delivered pursuant to Clause (c) of Paragraph
B below, upon receipt by the Trustee of the following:

A.
An Application of the Company requesting the payment of a specified amount of
such cash and stating whether any part of the cash so to be withdrawn is Funded
Cash.

B.
The Certificates, Opinions and other instruments which the Company would be
required to furnish to the Trustee upon an application for the authentication
and delivery of additional Bonds under Article V, but with the following
variations:

(a)
The provisions of Article V limiting the principal amount of Bonds to be
authenticated to seventy percent (70%) of the amount of Property Additions shall
be inapplicable to the withdrawal of cash under this Subdivision (2).

(b)
It shall not be necessary for the Company to deliver the instruments required by
Paragraphs A, F or G of Section 5.01.

(c)
The Property Additions Certificate required by Paragraph B of Section 5.01—

(i)     shall contain a further statement in Clause (1) thereof to the effect
that no part of the Property Additions therein described has

48

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

been acquired by the Company more than two (2) years prior to the delivery of
such Property Additions Certificate,

(ii)    shall contain a further statement in Clause (2) thereof to the effect
that the Property Additions therein described have not theretofore been used by
the Company for any purpose of this Restated Indenture, and

(iii)    shall omit the data required by Clauses (10), (11) and (13) of said
Paragraph B, and such certificate shall show only the Gross Amount of Property
Additions.

(d)
The Opinion of Counsel required by Paragraph E of Section 5.01 shall contain an
additional Clause (4) to the effect that in the opinion of such counsel all
conditions precedent relating to the withdrawal of cash, as set forth in this
Section 8.07, have been complied with.

C.
A Certificate of the Company, stating that all conditions precedent relating to
the withdrawal of cash, as set forth in this Section 8.07, have been complied
with.

SECTION 8.08. Certificate of Compliance with respect to Insurance. There shall
be deposited with the Trustee, at such reasonable times as it may request, and
at least once in each year on or before May 1 without any such request, a
Certificate of the Company stating that the Company has at all times during the
preceding calendar year complied with the provisions of Section 8.07, and
including a detailed statement of the policies of insurance outstanding and in
force at the end of the preceding calendar year. In case the Trustee shall at
any time notify the Company in writing that it disapproves of any insurance
company with which the Company has taken out any insurance, other insurance
satisfactory to the Trustee shall forthwith be effected by the Company.

SECTION 8.09. Advances by Trustee if Company Fails to Perform. If the Company
shall fail to perform any of the covenants contained in Sections 8.04 and 8.07,
the Trustee may make advances to perform the same in its behalf, but, except as
otherwise required by Section 14.01, shall be under no obligation so to do; and
all sums so advanced shall be at once repayable by the Company, and shall bear
interest at six percent (6%) per annum until paid, and shall be secured hereby,
having the benefit of the lien hereby created in priority to the Bonds issued
hereunder, but no such advance shall be deemed to relieve the Company from any
default hereunder.

SECTION 8.10. Books and Records; Inspection by Trustee. The Company will keep
books of record and account, in which full, true and correct entries will be
made of all dealings or transactions relative to the plants, properties,
business and affairs of the Company, and all books, documents and vouchers
relative to the plants, properties, business and affairs of the Company shall at
all reasonable times be open to the inspection of such reputable accountant or
other agent as the Trustee may from time to time designate, and the Company will
bear all expenses of such inspections made at intervals of not more than once
every two years.

49

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SECTION 8.11. Issue of Bonds Contrary to Indenture. The Company will not issue,
negotiate, sell or dispose of any Bonds to an amount or in any manner or for any
purpose contrary to the provisions of this Restated Indenture, according to the
true intent and tenor hereof.

SECTION 8.12. Restrictions on Dividends. Other than dividends payable solely in
shares of its common stock, the Company may declare and pay dividends in cash or
property on any shares of its common stock only out of the unreserved and
unrestricted retained earnings of the Company and shall not make any such
declaration or payment when (a) the Company is insolvent, or (b) when the
payment thereof would render the Company insolvent, or (c) an Event of Default
exists or would exist immediately after giving effect to any such declaration or
payment.

SECTION 8.13. Subsidiary Indebtedness. The Company will not sanction or permit
the creation, issuance, assumption, guarantee or incurrence of any indebtedness
by or of any Subsidiary (except indebtedness for current operating expenses and
consumers deposits of such Subsidiary) unless at the time of the creation,
issuance, assumption, guarantee or incurrence of any such indebtedness and after
giving effect thereto and to application of the proceeds thereof, the sum of
(a) the aggregate amount of all indebtedness secured by mortgages or liens
permitted by Clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 8.04 plus (b) the aggregate amount
of all indebtedness of Subsidiaries, shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the
net book value of all fixed assets of the Company determined as of the end of
the fiscal year of the Company immediately preceding the date of creation,

ARTICLE IX

REDEMPTION OF BONDS

SECTION 9.01. Reservation of Right to Redeem. With respect to any particular
series of Bonds issued hereunder, the Company may reserve the right to redeem
and pay off before maturity, all or any part of the Bonds of such series at such
time or times and from time to time, and on such terms, as the Board of
Directors may determine and as shall be appropriately expressed in this Restated
Indenture or in the supplemental indenture establishing such series.

SECTION 9.02. Procedure Upon Election to Redeem. In case the Company shall elect
to exercise its option to redeem Bonds at any time it shall give notice of such
exercise (1) by delivering to the Trustee written notice, signed by the
President or a Vice President of the Company, of intention to redeem Bonds
(which notice shall identify all Bonds of the series to be redeemed owned by the
Company), specifying the date fixed for redemption (which date, if less than all
the Bonds of any series are to be redeemed, shall be at least forty (40) days
after the delivery of such notice) and the aggregate principal amount of Bonds
so to be redeemed on said date, and (2) by mailing, or by requesting in the
notice to the Trustee set forth in subsection (1) above that the Trustee mail
(at the Company's expense), by registered mail, postage pre-paid, not less than
thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the said redemption
date, written notice of the exercise of such right of redemption to each
registered holder of any Bond designated for redemption in whole or in part, to
the last address of such holder appearing on the registry books for the Bonds.

50

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Each notice to be mailed to the registered holder of Bonds shall state the
following: (1) such election on the part of the Company to redeem Bonds,
specifying the series to be redeemed and the date fixed for redemption; (2) if
less than all of the Bonds of any series are to be redeemed, the distinguishing
numbers of the registered Bonds to be redeemed as a whole and the distinguishing
numbers of the registered Bonds to be redeemed in part (indicating the extent of
the partial redemption thereof, respectively), together with such other
description of the Bonds (and portions of Bonds, if any) as may be necessary in
order to identify the same, provided that the notice to be mailed to any holder
of registered Bonds to be redeemed need not so describe any other Bonds to be
redeemed; (3) the redemption price at which such Bonds are to be respectively
redeemed; (4) that interest on such Bonds (or on the portion to be redeemed of
any of such fully registered Bonds so designated for redemption in part) shall
cease on the date fixed for redemption; and (5) that on said date such Bonds
should be presented in negotiable form for redemption, as a whole or in part as
the case may be, at the place or places of payment of such Bonds.

If less than all of the outstanding Bonds of any series are to be called for
redemption and unless otherwise provided in the supplemental indenture under
which the Bonds to be redeemed are outstanding, the Bonds of such series to be
redeemed shall be designated by the Trustee (within ten (10) days after receipt
from the Company of notice of its intention to redeem Bonds) either (i) in
accordance with the provisions of any written instrument duly executed by the
registered holders of all the Bonds of such series and filed with the Trustee at
or prior to such time of designation, or (ii) if the provisions of the foregoing
Clause (i) shall not be applicable, by lot in any manner deemed to be proper by
the Trustee and not inconsistent herewith.

In any determination by lot under this Section 9.02, (i) Bonds which the notice
of intention to redeem hereinabove provided for identifies as owned by the
Company shall not be considered to be outstanding and shall be excluded in
making the determination of the Bonds to be redeemed and (ii) each registered
Bond shall be represented by a separate number for each One Thousand Dollars
($1,000) of its principal amount.

Unless otherwise provided in the supplemental indenture under which the Bonds to
be redeemed are outstanding, the Trustee forthwith upon the designation of Bonds
for redemption as aforesaid shall give written notice to the Company describing
the Bonds (including any portions thereof) designated for redemption as
aforesaid. Notice of election to redeem Bonds having been given by the Company
as aforesaid, the Bonds (or portions thereof) so designated for redemption
shall, on the redemption date designated in such notice, become due and payable,
at the redemption price then applicable and, upon presentation thereof for
redemption in accordance with such notice, such Bonds (or portions thereof)
shall be paid at the redemption price on said date.

If there shall have been designated for redemption as aforesaid, a portion but
less than all, of any outstanding registered Bond, then, upon presentation as
herein provided of such registered Bond, there shall be paid to or upon the
order of the holder of such registered Bond the principal amount of the portion
of such registered Bond so designated for redemption, and unpaid accrued
interest in respect thereof, together with the applicable premium, if any, and
at the option of such holder, either

51

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(a)    such registered Bond may be surrendered by such holder for cancellation,
in which event the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall thereupon
authenticate and deliver to or on the order of such holder, at the expense of
the Company, one or more new registered Bonds, of the same series and of any
authorized denominations or denominations, registered in the name of such
holder, for the principal amount of such registered Bond remaining unpaid; or

(b)    if such holder shall not so surrender such registered Bond, the Trustee
or other paying agent shall upon presentation of such Bond make notation thereon
of the payment of the portion of the principal of such Bond so called for
redemption.

SECTION 9.03. Cash and Documents to be Delivered to Trustee Prior to Redemption.
Before the redemption date specified in any notice given by the Company of its
exercise of its right to redeem Bonds, the Company shall deliver to and deposit
with the Trustee the following:

A.    Cash, in trust, in an amount sufficient to redeem all of the Bonds which
are to be redeemed (in whole or in part) on the redemption date specified in
such notice, which cash shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the
respective holders of such Bonds and shall be paid to them respectively as
aforesaid.

B.    A Certificate of the Company, stating that all conditions precedent which
relate to the redemption of such Bonds have been complied with.

C.    An Opinion of Counsel, stating that all conditions precedent which relate
to the redemption of such Bonds have been complied with.

SECTION 9.04. Redemption on Redemption Date; Cancellation of Redeemed Bonds.
Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Bonds (or the specified
portions of registered Bonds) so to be redeemed shall on the date fixed for
redemption become due and payable at the redemption price so specified; and if
the necessary funds for redemption shall have been deposited with the Trustee as
aforesaid and, unless theretofore paid to the holders of such Bonds, be
available for payment of such Bonds at the close of business on the date fixed
for redemption, from and after the date fixed for redemption, interest on the
Bonds or portion thereof so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, and in
such case, all such Bonds (or portions thereof as aforesaid) shall be excluded
from participation in the lien and security afforded by this Restated Indenture
and the holders thereof shall look for the payment of such Bonds only to the
funds in the hands of the Trustee and not to the Company or the mortgaged
property, provided, however, that such funds shall be held subject to the
provisions of Section 15.02.

The several holders of the Bonds issued under this Restated Indenture, by
accepting the same, agree upon any such redemption to accept payment of the
Bonds, or, in the case of a registered Bond of a denomination greater than
$1,000 partially redeemed, to accept payment of the amount thereof so redeemed,
all as in this Article IX provided.

52

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All Bonds redeemed and paid under this Article IX shall, except as provided in
Clause (b) of Section 9.02, be cancelled by the Trustee.

further action, subject to the lien of this Restated Indenture;

may, without the consent of the Trustee, alter, add to, repair or replace its
buildings, structures, machinery, equipment and appliances relating to or used

or nominees, the Trustee from time to time shall execute and deliver upon an
Application of the Company, suitable assignments and orders in favor of the
Company or its nominee named in such assignments or orders for the payment of
such cash dividends or interest; provided, however, and it is hereby declared
and agreed that the Company shall not be entitled to receive and the Trustee

and the Company shall also have the right, except as herein expressly limited,
to vote and/or give consents with respect to all shares of stock held by the
Trustee hereunder, and from time to time, in case such shares of stock shall
have been transferred into the name of the Trustee or of its nominee or
nominees, the Trustee, upon the Application of the Company, shall execute and

effect that the powers thereby conferred do not include any power to vote for or
to authorize or consent to any act or thing inconsistent with this Restated
Indenture.

54

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Trustee shall, however, upon receipt of an Application of the Company,
execute any release and/or consent which may be requested in the application to
confirm any action taken by the Company as permitted by this Section, in which
event the Trustee may, subject to the provisions of Section 14.01, accept as
conclusive evidence of compliance with the foregoing provisions a Certificate of
the Company in regard thereto.

which value may be determined without physical inspection by use of accounting
and engineering records and other data maintained by, or available to, the
Company.

B.    Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon
receipt of an Application of the Company requesting the release of any of the
trust estate pursuant to this Paragraph B, the Trustee shall execute and deliver

of the signer of such Engineer's certificate, of (A) all of the trust estate,
and (B) the portion of the trust estate to be released, in each case as of a
date not more than 90 days prior to the date of such Application of the Company,

the Company of the Property Additions being so acquired, any property included
within such Property Additions had been used or operated by others than the
Company in a business similar to that in which it has been or is to be used or
operated by the Company, and the Fair Value thereof to the Company, as set forth
in such Engineer's certificate, is not less than one percent (1%) of the
aggregate principal amount of Bonds then outstanding, such certificate shall be
an Independent Engineer's Certificate);

Company, stating (i) that the aggregate principal amount of Bonds outstanding at
the date of such Application of the Company, and stating that the Fair Value of
all of the trust estate (excluding the trust estate to be released but including
any Property Additions to be acquired by the Company with the proceeds of, or
otherwise in connection with, such release) stated on the Engineer's certificate
filed pursuant to Clause (2) of Paragraph B equals or exceeds an amount equal to
ten-sevenths (10/7) of such aggregate principal amount, and (ii) that, to the
knowledge of the signer, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and

(5)    an Opinion of Counsel stating that the instruments which have been or are

in writing to the Company) or the holders of twenty-five percent (25%) in amount
of the Bonds outstanding (by notice in writing to the Company and the Trustee)
may declare the principal of all Bonds hereby secured then outstanding to be due
and payable immediately, anything in this Restated Indenture or in said Bonds
contained to the contrary notwithstanding. This provision, however, is subject
to the condition that if, at any time after the principal of said Bonds shall
have been so declared due and payable, before any sale of the trust estate shall
have been made, the principal of all Bonds then due otherwise than by reason of
such declaration and all arrears of interest upon all Bonds issued hereunder,
with interest on overdue principal and (to the extent that payment of such
interest is enforceable under applicable law) on overdue installments of
interest at the default rate provided for in the supplemental indenture pursuant
to which the Bonds are outstanding, and the expenses of the Trustee, shall
either be paid by the Company, or be collected out of the trust estate, and all
other defaults made good or secured to the satisfaction of the Trustee, then and
in every such case the holders of a majority in amount of the Bonds hereby
secured then outstanding, by a written notice to the Company and to the Trustee,
may waive such default and its consequences in behalf of all bondholders; but no
such waiver shall extend to or affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereto.

In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this
Restated Indenture by foreclosure, entry or otherwise and such proceedings shall
have been discontinued or abandoned because of such waiver or for any other
reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every
such case the Company and the Trustee shall be restored to their former position
and rights hereunder in respect of the trust estate, and all rights, remedies
and powers of the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceedings had been
taken.

SECTION 11.05. Sale of Trust Estate Upon Event of Default. If one or more of the
Events of Default shall happen and shall be continuing, the Trustee may, to the
extent permitted by law, with or without entry, personally or by attorney, sell
to the highest bidder all and singular the trust estate, property and premises,
rights, franchises and interest and appurtenances and real and personal property
of every kind, and all right, title, interest, claim and demand therein, and
right of redemption thereof, in one lot and as an entirety, unless a sale in
parcels shall have been requested by the holders of a majority in amount of the
Bonds hereby secured then outstanding, in which case the sale shall, to the
extent permitted by law, be made in such parcels as shall be specified in such
request, or unless such sale as an entirety is impracticable by reason of some
statute or some other cause, which sale or sales shall be made at public
auction, at such place, at such time and upon such terms as the Trustee may fix
in compliance with applicable law and briefly specify in the notice of sale to
be given as herein provided.

The Company, for itself and all persons and corporations hereafter claiming
through or under it or who at any time hereafter may become holders of liens
junior to the lien of this Restated Indenture, hereby, to the extent permitted
by law, expressly waives and releases all right to have the properties comprised
in the trust estate marshalled upon any foreclosure or other enforcement

68

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

hereof, including all right to have distinct tracts or lots first offered for
sale separately, and the Company agrees that the Trustee, or any court in which
the foreclosure of this Restated Indenture or the administration of the trusts
hereby created is sought, shall have the right as aforesaid to sell the trust
estate as a whole in a single parcel.

If one or more of the Events of Default shall happen and shall be continuing the
Trustee may, and upon the written request of the holders of at least a majority
in amount of the Bonds then outstanding and subject to the provisions of
Section 14.01, the Trustee shall proceed to protect and enforce its rights and
the rights of the holders of Bonds secured by this Restated Indenture, by a suit
or suits at law or in equity, whether for the specific performance of any
covenant or agreement contained herein, or in aid of the execution of any power
herein granted, or for the foreclosure of this Restated Indenture, or for the
enforcement of any other proper legal or equitable remedy, as the Trustee, being
advised by counsel, shall deem most expedient in the interests of the holders of
the Bonds hereby secured; but, anything in this Restated Indenture to the
contrary notwithstanding, the holders of at least a majority in principal amount
of the Bonds then outstanding, from time to time, shall have the right to direct
and control the action of the Trustee in any proceedings under this Article or
in any proceeding instituted by the Trustee for the enforcement of the Bonds or
of this Restated Indenture, and it shall be the duty of the Trustee, in so far
as the direction is consistent with law and this Restated Indenture, to conform
to and be governed by such direction.

SECTION 11.06. Notice of Sale. Notice of any such sale pursuant to any
provisions of this Restated Indenture shall specify those matters which may be
required by applicable law, and shall state the time when, and the place where,
the same is to be made, and shall contain a brief general description of the
property to be sold, and shall be sufficiently given if published once in each
week for four successive weeks prior to such sale, in one Authorized Publication
of each county in which any of the mortgaged property is located.

SECTION 11.07. Adjournment of Sale. From time to time the Trustee may adjourn
any sale to be made under the provisions of this Restated Indenture, by
announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale, or for such
adjourned sale or sales; and without further notice or publication, except as
required by applicable law, the Trustee may make such sale at the time and place
to which the same shall be so adjourned.

SECTION 11.08. Conveyance Upon Completion of Sale. Upon the completion of any
sale or sales under this Restated Indenture, the Trustee, and/or the court
officer conducting such sale or sales, shall execute and deliver to the accepted
purchase or purchasers a good and sufficient deed of conveyance or assignment
and transfer, lawfully conveying, assigning and transferring the property and
franchises sold; and the Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and
lawful attorney of the Company, in its name and stead, to make all necessary
deeds, conveyances and assignments of the property thus sold; and for that
purpose it may execute all necessary deeds and instruments of assignment and
transfer, the Company hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney
shall lawfully do by virtue hereof.

Any such sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Restated Indenture,
whether under the power of sale herein granted, or pursuant to judicial
proceedings, shall operate to divest all right,

69

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, of the
Company, in and to the premises and property so sold, and shall be a perpetual
bar both at law and in equity against the Company, its successors and assigns,
and against any and all persons claiming or to claim the premises and property
sold, or any part thereof, from, through, or under the Company, its successors
or assigns.

The receipt of the Trustee, or of the court officer conducting any such sale
shall be full and sufficient discharge to any purchaser of the property or any
part thereof sold as aforesaid for the purchase money; and no such purchaser or
his representatives, grantees or assigns, after paying such purchase money and
receiving such receipt, shall be bound to see to the application of such
purchase money upon or for any trust or purpose of this Restated Indenture, or
in any manner whatsoever be answerable for any loss, misapplication or
non-application of any such purchase money or any part thereof, or be bound to
inquire as to the authorization, necessity, expediency or regularity of any such
sale.

SECTION 11.09. Bonds Due and Payable Upon Sale. In case of any sale, whether
made under the power of sale hereby granted or pursuant to judicial proceedings,
the whole of the principal sums of the Bonds hereby secured, if not previously
due, shall at once become due and payable, anything in said Bonds or in this
Restated Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding.

SECTION 11.10. Application of Proceeds of Sale. The purchase money, proceeds and
avails of any such sale, whether made under the power of sale hereby granted or
pursuant to judicial proceedings, together with any other sums which then may be
held by the Trustee as part of the trust estate, shall be applied as follows:

First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of such sale, and reasonable
compensation to the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and of all
expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Trustee without
negligence or bad faith in managing and maintaining the property hereby
conveyed, and in the performance of its other powers and duties hereunder, and
to the payment of all taxes, assessments or liens prior to the lien of this
Restated Indenture, except any taxes, assessments or other superior liens
subject to which said sale shall have been made;

Second, to the payment of the whole amount then owing or unpaid upon the Bonds
hereby secured for principal and interest, with interest on the overdue
principal and (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under
applicable law) the overdue installments of interest at the default rate
provided for in the supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Bonds are
oustanding; and in case such proceeds shall be insufficient to pay in full the
whole amount so due and unpaid upon the said Bonds, then to the payment of such
principal and interest, without preference or priority of principal over
interest, or of interest over principal, or of any installment of interest over
any other installment of interest, ratably to the aggregate of such principal
and the accrued and unpaid interest, subject, however, to the provisions of
Section 11.01. Such payments shall be made on the date fixed therefor by the
Trustee, upon presentation of the several Bonds and stamping thereon the amount
paid, if such Bonds be only partly paid, and upon surrender thereof if fully
paid;

70

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Third, to the payment of premium, if any, to the holders of the Bonds to the
extent provided for in the supplemental indenture under which the Bonds are
outstanding;

Fourth, to the payment of all other amounts due to the holders of the Bonds; and

Fifth, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to the Company, its successors or
assigns, or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

SECTION 11.11. Purchaser may Apply Bonds to Purchase Price. Upon any sale as
aforesaid, any purchaser, for the purpose of making settlement or payment for
the property purchased, shall be entitled to use and apply any Bonds and any
matured and unpaid interest obligations thereon, subject to the provisions of
Section 11.01, by presenting the same so that there may be credited, as paid
thereon, the sums payable out of the net proceeds of such sale to the holders of
such Bonds and such interest obligations, as its ratable share of such net
proceeds, after allowing for the proportion of the total purchase price required
to pay the costs and expenses of the sale, compensation and other charges; and
thereupon such purchaser shall be credited on account of such purchase price
payable by it, with the portion of such net proceeds that shall be applicable to
the payment of, and that shall have been credited upon, the Bonds so turned in,
and at any such sale any bondholder or bondholders may bid for and purchase such
property, may make payment on account thereof as aforesaid, and upon compliance
with terms of sale, may hold, retain, and dispose of such property without
further accountability therefor.

SECTION 11.12. Waiver of Stay, Extension, Appraisement and Redemption. The
Company will not at any time insist upon or plead, or in any manner whatever
claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law now or at
any time hereafter in force; nor will it claim, take or insist on any benefit or
advantage from any law now or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or
appraisement of the property hereby mortgaged or conveyed or pledged, or any
part thereof, prior to any sale or sales thereof to be made pursuant to any
provision herein contained or to the decree of any court of competent
jurisdiction; nor after any such sale or sales will it claim or exercise any
right conferred by any statute to redeem the property so sold, or any part
thereof; and it hereby expressly waives all benefit and advantage of such law or
laws and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any
power herein granted and delegated to the Trustee, but that it will suffer and
permit the execution of every such power as though no such law or laws had been
made.

SECTION 11.13. Amount Due in the Event of Default. The Company covenants that
(a) in case default shall be made in the payment of any interest on any Bond or
Bonds at any time outstanding and secured by this Restated Indenture, and such
default shall have continued for the period of sixty (60) days, or (b) in case
default shall be made in the payment of the principal of any such Bonds when the
same shall become payable, whether upon the maturity of said Bonds, or upon
declaration, call for redemption or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Trustee,
the Company will pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Bonds
hereby secured, then outstanding, the whole amount that then shall have become
due and payable on all such Bonds then outstanding, for interest, premium, if
any, or principal, as the case may be, with interest upon the overdue principal
and (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable
law) on installments

71

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

of interest and premium, if any, at the default rate provided for in the
supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Bonds are outstanding; and in case
the Company shall fail to pay the same forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee,
in its own name and as the trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled to
recover judgment against the Company or any other obligor upon the Bonds, for
the whole amount so due and unpaid.

The Trustee, shall, unless prohibited by law, be entitled to recover judgment as
aforesaid, either before or after or during the pendency of any proceedings for
the enforcement of the lien of this Restated Indenture, and such right of the
Trustee shall not be affected by any entry or sale hereunder, or by the exercise
of any other right, power or remedy for the enforcement of the provisions of
this Restated Indenture or the foreclosure of the lien hereof; and in case of a
sale of the Mortgaged Property, the Trustee in its own name and as trustee of an
express trust, shall be entitled to enforce payment of, and to receive, all
amounts then remaining due and unpaid upon any and all of the Bonds then
outstanding hereunder for the benefit of the holders thereof, and shall be
entitled to sue for and recover judgment for any portion of the said debt
remaining unpaid, with interest and premium, if any. No recovery of any such
judgment by the Trustee, and no levy of any execution upon property subject to
the lien of this Restated Indenture, or upon any other property, and no filing
or proof of any claim, shall in any manner, or to any extent, affect the lien of
this Restated Indenture upon the property, or any part thereof, subject to this
Restated Indenture, or any lien, rights, powers or remedies of the Trustee
hereunder, or any lien, rights, powers or remedies of the holders of the Bonds,
but such lien, rights, powers and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before.

Any moneys thus collected by the Trustee under this Section shall be applied,
first, to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the
Trustee, its agents and attorneys, and, second, toward the payment of the
amounts then due and unpaid upon such Bonds, in respect of or for the benefit of
which such moneys shall have been collected, ratably, and, without any
preference or priority of any kind, except as provided in Section 11.01,
according to the amounts due and payable upon such Bonds, at the date fixed by
the Trustee for the distribution of such moneys, upon presentation of the Bonds
and stamping thereon such payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender
thereof, if fully paid.

The provisions of this Section 11.13 and the powers granted to the Trustee by
this Section are subject to the limitation that if by the commencement or
continuance of any action to recover judgment for any amount due and unpaid upon
the Bonds hereunder, or by the exercise of any other remedy prior to or
concurrently with proceedings to enforce the lien of this Restated Indenture,
the lien of this Restated Indenture or the security hereby provided for would be
prejudiced, surrendered, waived or lost, the Trustee shall not have power to
exercise any such remedy.

SECTION 11.14. Right of Entry and other Rights of Trustee. Upon filing a bill in
equity or upon other commencement of judicial proceedings by the Trustee, to
enforce any right under this Restated Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled,
to the extent permitted by law, to exercise the right of entry, and also any and
all rights and powers herein conferred and provided to be exercised by the
Trustee upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default; and as a
matter of right, the Trustee shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver
of the premises hereby mortgaged,

72

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and of the earnings, revenue, rents, issues, profits and other income thereof
and therefrom, with all such powers as the court or courts making such
appointment shall confer; but notwithstanding the appointment of any receiver
the Trustee shall be entitled, as pledgee, to continue to retain possession and
control of any stocks, bonds, cash and indebtedness pledged or deposited or
provided to be pledged or deposited with the Trustee hereunder.

SECTION 11.15. Limitation on Rights of Bondholders to Institute Proceedings.
Except as hereinafter otherwise provided, no holder of any Bond issued hereunder
shall have any right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at
law for the foreclosure of this Restated Indenture, or for the appointment of a
receiver or for the execution of any trust hereunder, or for any other remedy
hereunder, unless the holders of at least a majority in amount of the Bonds
hereby secured and then outstanding shall have requested the Trustee in writing
to take action in respect of the matter complained of, and shall have afforded
to it a reasonable opportunity to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted, or
to institute such action, suit or proceedings in its own name; nor unless also
they shall have offered to the Trustee such security and indemnity if any as may
be required by the provisions of Section 14.01, against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby; nor unless the Trustee shall have
refused or neglected to act on such request and offer of indemnity and such
request and offer of indemnity are hereby declared, in every such case at the
option of the Trustee, but subject to the provisions of Section 14.01, to be
conditions precedent to the execution of the powers and trusts of this Restated
Indenture and to any cause or causes of action for foreclosure or for the
appointment of a receiver, or for any other remedy hereunder; it being
understood and intended that no one or more holders of Bonds shall have any
right, in any manner whatever, by his or their action, to affect, disturb or
prejudice the lien of this Restated Indenture, or to enforce any right hereunder
except in the manner herein provided; and that all proceedings at law or in
equity shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided,
and for the equal benefit of all holders of such outstanding Bonds, subject to
the provisions of Section 11.01.

Nothing in this Section or elsewhere in this Restated Indenture or in the Bonds
shall, however, affect or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
unconditional and absolute, to pay the principal of and interest and premium, if
any, on the Bonds to the respective holders of the Bonds when the same shall
become due and payable, nor affect or impair the right of action, which is also
absolute and unconditional, of such holders to enforce such payment.

Any rights of action under this Restated Indenture may be enforced by the
Trustee, without the possession of any of the Bonds hereby secured or the
production thereof on the trial or other proceedings relative thereto, and any
such suit or proceedings instituted by the Trustee, shall be brought in its own
name, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the
holders of said Bonds, subject to the provisions of Section 11.01.

SECTION 11.16. Remedies Not Exclusive. Except as herein expressly provided to
the contrary, no remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee, or to
the holders of Bonds issued hereunder, is intended to be exclusive of any other
remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at
law or in equity or by statute.

73

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SECTION 11.17. Delay is not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of
any holder of Bonds issued hereunder to exercise any right or power accruing
upon and default continuing as aforesaid, shall impair any such right or power,
or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or an acquiescence
therein, and every power and remedy given by this Article to the Trustee or to
the bondholders, subject to the provisions of Section 11.15, may be exercised
from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee or by
the holders of the Bonds.

SECTION 11.18. Power of Trustee to Institute Proceedings. The Trustee shall have
power to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may be
advised shall be necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of the
security hereunder by any acts of the Company, or of others, in violation of
this Restated Indenture or unlawful, or as the Trustee may be advised shall be
necessary or expedient to preserve and to protect its interests and the interest
of the bondholders in respect of the property subject to this Restated
Indenture, and in respect of the income, earnings, issues and profits arising
therefrom, including power to institute and to maintain suits or proceedings to
restrain the enforcement of, or compliance with, or the observance of, any
legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be
unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement of, compliance with or
observance of such enactment, rule or order would impair the security hereunder
or be prejudicial to the interests of the bondholders or of the Trustee.

SECTION 11.19. Trustees Rights in the Event of Insolvency Proceedings. The
Trustee shall be entitled and empowered either in its own name and as trustee of
an express trust, or attorney-in-fact for the holders of the Bonds, or in any
one or more such capacities, to file such proof of debt, amendment of proof of
debt, claim, petition or other document as may be necessary or advisable in
order to have the clams of the holders of the Bonds allowed in any equity
receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, readjustment, reorganization
or any other similar proceedings or in any judicial proceedings relative to the
Company or any other obligor upon the Bonds, or relative to the creditors or
property of the Company or any such obligor. The Trustee is hereby irrevocably
appointed (and the successive respective holders of the Bonds, by taking and
holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have so appointed the Trustee)
the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the respective holders of the Bonds,
with authority to make or file in the respective names of the holders of the
Bonds, or on behalf of all the holders of the Bonds as a class (subject to
deduction from any such claim of the amounts of any claims filed by any of the
holders of the Bonds themselves) any proof of debt, amendment of proof of debt,
claim, petition or other document in any such proceedings and to receive payment
of any sums becoming distributable on account thereof, and to execute any other
papers and documents and do and perform any and all acts and things for and on
behalf of such holders of the Bonds, as may be necessary or advisable in the
opinion of the Trustee, in order to have the respective claims of the holders of
the Bonds against the Company and/or its property allowed in any such
proceeding, and to receive payment of or on account of such claims; provided,
however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize or empower
the Trustee to consent to or accept or adopt, on behalf of any bondholder, any
plan of reorganization or readjustment of the Company affecting the Bonds.

SECTION 11.20. No Recourse Against Stockholders, Officers or Directors. No
recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in this
Restated Indenture or under

74

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

or upon any indebtedness hereby secured or because of the creation thereof,
shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as
such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor
corporation, directly or through the Company or through a receiver or a trustee
in bankruptcy, by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law or by the
enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly agreed
and understood that this Restated Indenture and all the Bonds and obligations
hereby secured are solely corporate obligations, and that no personal liability
whatever does or shall attach to or be incurred by the incorporators,
stockholders, officers or directors, as such, of the Company or of any
predecessor or successor corporation or any of them, because of the incurring of
the indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or by reason of any of the
obligations, covenants or agreements contained in this Restated Indenture or in
any of the Bonds hereby secured or implied therefrom.

SECTION 11.21. Execution of Instruments by Bondholders. Any request, direction
or other instrument required or authorized by this Restated Indenture to be
signed and executed by bondholders may be in any number of concurrent writings
of similar tenor, and may be signed or executed by such bondholders in person or
by agent appointed in writing. Proof of the execution of any such request,
direction or other instrument, or of the writing appointing any such agent, and
of the ownership of Bonds, shall be in form satisfactory to the Trustee.

The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such writing may be
proved by the certificate of any officer in any jurisdiction who, by the laws
thereof, has power to take acknowledgments within said jurisdiction, to the
effect that the person signing such writing acknowledged before him the
execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness to such execution.

The holding of registered Bonds shall be proved by the Bond Register.

Nothing in this Section contained shall be construed as limiting the Trustee to
the proof herebefore specified, it being intended that the Trustee may accept
any other evidence of the matters herein stated which to it may seem sufficient.

without such notation, any written consent shall be conclusive and binding on
the holder and all future holders and owners

77

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

of the Bonds. If the Company or the Trustee shall so determine, new Bonds so
modified as, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors of the
Company, to give effect to the provisions of such supplemental indenture, shall
be prepared, authenticated and delivered upon the demand of the holder of any
Bond then outstanding, in exchange for and upon surrender of such outstanding
Bond; and such exchange shall be made without cost to such holder.

not consolidate with or merge into any other person or convey or transfer,
subject to the lien of this Restated Indenture, all of the mortgaged property as
or substantially as an entirety to any person, unless:

(1) in case the Company shall consolidate with or merge into another person or
convey or transfer all of the mortgaged property as or substantially as an
entirety to any person, the person formed by such consolidation or into which
the Company is merged or the person which acquires by conveyance or transfer,
the mortgaged property as or substantially as an entirety (such person being
hereinafter sometimes called the "Successor Corporation") shall execute and
deliver to the Trustee an indenture supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to
the Trustee, which:

(A) in the case of a consolidation, merger, conveyance or other transfer,
contains an express assumption by the Successor Corporation of the due and
punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the
Bonds then outstanding and the performance and observance of every covenant and
condition of this Restated Indenture to be performed or observed by the Company;
and

(B) in the case of a consolidation, merger, conveyance or other transfer,
contains a grant, conveyance, transfer and mortgage by the Successor
Corporation, of the same tenor of the granting clauses herein:

(i) confirming the lien of this Restated Indenture on the mortgaged property (as
constituted immediately prior to the time such transaction became effective) and
subjecting to the lien of this Restated Indenture all property, real, personal
and mixed, thereafter acquired by the Successor Corporation which shall
constitute an improvement, extension or addition to the mortgaged property (as
so constituted) or a renewal, replacement or substitution of or for any part
thereof; and

(ii) at the election of the Successor Corporation, subjecting to the lien of
this Restated Indenture such property, real, personal or mixed, in addition to
the property described in clause (i) of this Section, then owned or thereafter

78

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

acquired by the Successor Corporation as the Successor Corporation shall, in its
sole discretion, specify or describe therein, and the lien confirmed or created
by such grant, conveyance, transfer and mortgage shall have force, effect and
standing similar to those which the lien of this Restated Indenture would have
had if the Company had not been a party to such consolidation, merger,
conveyance or other transfer and had itself, after the time such transaction
became effective, purchased, constructed or otherwise acquired the property
subject to such grant, conveyance, transfer and mortgage;

(2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default,
and no event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event
of Default, shall have happened and be continuing; and

(3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an officer's certificate and an
opinion of counsel stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance or
transfer and such supplemental indenture, comply with this Article XIII and that
all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have
been complied with.

SECTION 13.02. Successor Corporation Substituted. Upon any consolidation of the
Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other person or any conveyance
or transfer, subject to the lien of this Restated Indenture, of the mortgaged
property as or substantially as an entirety in accordance with Section 13.01,
the Successor Corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the Company
is merged or to which such conveyance or transfer is made shall succeed to, and
be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under
this Restated Indenture with the same effect as if such Successor Corporation
had been named as the Company herein. Without limiting the generality of the

Restated Indenture, of the character described in the definition of “Property
Additions”, shall constitute Property Additions;

(2) the Successor Corporation may execute and deliver to the Trustee, and

and VII, authenticate and deliver, Bonds upon any basis provided in Articles IV,
V, VI, and VII; and

(3) the Successor Corporation may, subject to the applicable provisions of this
Restated Indenture, cause Property Additions to be applied to any other purpose
authorized by this Restated Indenture.

All Bonds so executed by the Successor Corporation, and authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee, shall in all respects be entitled to the benefit of
the lien of this Restated Indenture equally and ratably with all Bonds executed,
authenticated and delivered prior to the time such consolidation, merger,
conveyance or other transfer became effective.

79

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SECTION 13.03. Extent of Lien Hereof on Property of Successor Corporation.
Unless, in the case of a consolidation, merger, conveyance or other transfer
contemplated by Section 13.01, the indenture supplemental hereto contemplated in
clause (1)(B) in Section 13.01, or any other indenture, contains a grant,
conveyance, transfer and mortgage by the Successor Corporation as described in
subclause (ii) thereof, neither this Restated Indenture nor such supplemental
indenture shall become or be, or be required to become or be, a lien upon any of
the properties:

(1) owned by the Successor Corporation or any other party to such transaction
(other than the Company) immediately prior to the time of effectiveness of such
transaction; or

(2) acquired by the Successor Corporation at or after the time of effectiveness
of such transaction, except, in either case, properties acquired from the
Company in or as a result of such transaction and improvements, extensions and
additions to such properties and renewals, replacements and substitutions of or
for any part or parts thereof.

SECTION 13.04. Release of Company upon Conveyance or Other Transfer. In the case
of a conveyance or other transfer to any person or persons as contemplated in
Section 13.01, upon the satisfaction of all the conditions specified in Section
13.01, the Company (such term being used in this Section without giving effect
to such transaction) shall be released and discharged from all obligations and
covenants under this Restated Indenture and on and under all Bonds then
outstanding (unless the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
instrument in which it shall waive such release and discharge) and the Trustee
shall acknowledge in writing that the Company has been so released and
discharged.

SECTION 13.05. Merger into Company; Extent of Lien Hereof. Nothing in this
Restated Indenture shall be deemed to prevent or restrict any consolidation or
merger after the consummation of which the Company would be the surviving or
resulting corporation or any conveyance or other transfer, subject to the lien
of this Restated Indenture, of any part of the mortgaged property which does not
constitute the entirety, or substantially the entirety, thereof.

Unless, in the case of a consolidation or merger described in this Section
13.05, an indenture supplemental hereto shall otherwise provide, this Restated
Indenture shall not become or be, or be required to become or be, a lien upon
any of the properties acquired by the Company in or as a result of such
transaction or any improvements, extensions or additions to such properties or
any renewals, replacements or substitutions of or for any part or parts thereof.

ARTICLE XIV

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

The Trustee accepts the trusts hereunder and agrees to perform the same, but
only upon the terms and conditions hereof, including the following, to all of
which the Company and the respective holders of the Bonds at any time
outstanding by their acceptance thereof agree:

80

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SECTION 14.01. Trustee's Duties. (A) The Trustee undertakes, except while an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to exercise such duties
and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Restated Indenture,
and, while such an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
(subject to the provisions of Paragraphs (B) and (C) of this Section 14.01), to
exercise such of the rights and powers as are vested in it by this Restated
Indenture, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as an
ordinarily prudent man would do or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
his own affairs.

(B)    Except as elsewhere in this Restated Indenture or any indenture
supplemental hereto otherwise expressly provided:

(1)    unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Trustee shall not be under any obligation to take any action or make any
investigation in respect of the subject matter of this Restated Indenture or any
indenture supplemental hereto unless requested in writing so to do by the
holders or registered owners of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in
principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding; and

(2)    whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred, the Trustee shall
not be under any obligation to take any action under this Restated Indenture or
any indenture supplemental hereto which in its opinion may tend to involve it in
any expense or liability, the payment of which within a reasonable time is not,
in the opinion of the Trustee, assured by the security afforded to it by the
terms of this Restated Indenture, unless and until requested in writing so to do
by one or more holders or registered owners of Bonds outstanding hereunder and
furnished, from time to time as may be required, with reasonable security and
indemnity; provided, however, that no security or indemnity furnished by the
holders or registered owners of Bonds to the Trustee shall be applicable to any
liability (a) which is incurred by the Trustee as a result of any action taken
by the Trustee not reasonably in accordance with the request or requests
delivered to the Trustee by such holders or registered owners of the Bonds, or
(b) which is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be a
liability imposed upon the Trustee as a result of its default or negligence in
the performance of the duties imposed upon or undertaken by the Trustee by the
terms of this Restated Indenture or any indenture supplemental hereto.

(C)    The Trustee shall not be personally liable save for its own negligent
action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct. No
provision of this Restated Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee
from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act,
or its own willful misconduct, except that

(1) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Restated Indenture; and

(2) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in the
absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may rely conclusively, as to the
truth of the statements

81

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or
opinions conforming to the requirements of this Restated Indenture; and

(3) the Trustee shall not be personally liable for any error of judgment made in
good faith by a responsible officer or officers of the Trustee unless it shall
be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts,
and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Restated
Indenture against the Trustee, but the duties and obligations of the Trustee
shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Restated Indenture;
and

(4) the Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken
or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of
the holders of not less than such percentage in principal amount of the Bonds at
the time outstanding as are entitled under the provisions of this Restated
Indenture so to direct the taking or omission of such action.

(D)     The Trustee, upon receipt of the evidence furnished to it by or on
behalf of the Company, pursuant to any provision of this Restated Indenture,
will examine the same to determine whether or not such evidence conforms to the
requirements of this Restated Indenture.

(E)     The Trustee shall not be personally liable in case of entry by it upon
the trust estate, for debts contracted or liability or damages incurred in the
management or operation thereof.

(F)     To the extent permitted by Subdivisions (A), (B) and (C) of this Section
14.01:
 
(1) The Trustee may rely upon and shall be protected in acting upon any notice,
request, consent, certificate, bond, resolution, appraisal, report or other
paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper party or parties; and

(2) The Trustee may consult with counsel (who may be independent counsel to the
Company) and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete
authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by the
Trustee hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such
counsel.

(G)     The recitals and statements contained herein and in the Bonds issued
hereunder shall not be considered as made by or as imposing any obligation or
liability upon the Trustee. The Trustee makes no representation as to the
validity of this Restated Indenture or of any indenture supplemental hereto, or
of any Bonds issued hereunder, or as to the security hereby or thereby afforded,
or as to the title of the Company to the mortgaged property or as to the
descriptions thereof.

The Company agrees that it will from time to time on demand pay to the Trustee
reasonable compensation for services rendered by the Trustee hereunder,
reimburse the Trustee for all expenditures, including advances to and fees and
expenses of independent appraisers, accountants, surveyors, engineers, counsel
or other experts employed in the exercise and performance of its

82

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

powers and duties hereunder, and indemnify and save the Trustee harmless against
any loss, liability or expense, incurred without negligence or bad faith on the
part of the Trustee, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of this trust, as well as the reasonable cost and expense of
defending against any claim of liability in the premises; and, as security for
such indemnification, reimbursement and compensation, the Trustee shall have the
benefit of the lien hereby created in priority to the indebtedness evidenced by
the Bonds issued hereunder.

(H)     Whenever, in the administration of the trusts created by this Restated
Indenture, the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that any matter be
proved or established prior to its taking or suffering or omitting any action
hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein
specifically prescribed), subject to Subdivisions (A) and (C) of this Section,
may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a Certificate of the
Company, and such certificate shall be full warrant and authority to the Trustee
for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this
Restated Indenture in reliance thereon; but the Trustee in its discretion may,
and if requested in writing so to do by the holders or registered owners of not
less than twenty-five percent (25%) in principal amount of the Bonds then
outstanding and furnished with security and indemnity against the costs and
expenses of such examinations as required by Subdivision (B) of this Section,
shall require such further and additional evidence and make such further
investigation as to it may seem reasonable. The agents and representatives of
the Trustee and any experts or counsel whose opinions are required by the
Trustee for any purpose hereunder or are deliverable to the Trustee under any
provision hereof shall likewise be fully warranted in relying and acting upon
the existence of any matters proved or established by any such certificate,
unless other evidence establishing such fact or facts be specifically required
by this Restated Indenture.

(I)     Subject to the provisions of Section 15.02, all moneys received by the
Trustee under or pursuant to any provision of this Restated Indenture or any
supplemental indenture (including any moneys received by the Trustee as paying
agent) shall constitute trust funds for the purpose for which they were paid or
are held, but need not be segregated in any manner from any other moneys and may
be deposited by the Trustee under such conditions as may be prescribed by law.

(J)     The Trustee may acquire and hold Bonds issued hereunder and otherwise
deal with the Company or with any other corporation having relations with the
Company, in the same manner and to the same extent and with like effect as
though it were not the Trustee.

(K)     Any notice or demand which by any provision of this Restated Indenture
is required or permitted to be given or served by the Trustee on the Company
shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given and served for all purposes by
being deposited, postage prepaid, in a post office letter box, addressed to the
Company at P.O. Box 1400, Rapid City, South Dakota 57702, Attention: Vice
President and Treasurer, or at such other address as the Company may have
furnished to the Trustee in writing.

(L)     Except when otherwise in this Restated Indenture expressly provided, any
order, request, notice, consent or other instrument in writing to be delivered
or furnished by the Company to the Trustee shall be sufficiently executed if
signed by its President or a Vice-President and by its

83

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or its Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer;
or by such officer or officers as the Board of Directors of the Company may by
resolution direct. A copy of any resolution of the Board of Directors to be
delivered or furnished by the Company to the Trustee shall be sufficiently
certified if certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the
Company.

SECTION 14.02. Resignation or Removal of Trustee. (A) No resignation or removal
of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this
Article XIV shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the
successor Trustee under Section 14.03.

(B) The Trustee may resign and be discharged from the trusts created by this
Restated Indenture by giving to the Company notice in writing, and to the
Bondholders notice by publication, of such resignation, specifying a date when
such resignation shall take effect, which notice shall be published at least
once a week for two successive calendar weeks, on any day of each such week, the
first publication to be at least ten days prior to the date so specified, in one
Authorized Publication printed in the English language customarily published on
each Business day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, and one Authorized Publication in the City and County of
Denver, Colorado. Such resignation shall take effect on the day specified in
such notice, unless previously a successor trustee shall have been appointed as
provided in Section 14.03, in which event such resignation shall take effect
immediately upon the appointment of such successor trustee.

(C)    The Trustee may be removed at any time by an instrument or instruments in
writing, executed by the holders or registered owners of a majority in principal
amount of the Bonds then outstanding and filed with the Trustee and with the
Company.

SECTION 14.03. Appointment of Successor Trustee. In case at any time the Trustee
shall resign or shall be removed or otherwise shall become incapable of acting,
a successor may be appointed by the holders or registered owners of a majority
in principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, by an instrument or
instruments in writing, executed by such Bondholders and filed with the
successor trustee; but, until a new Trustee shall be appointed by the
Bondholders as herein authorized, the Company, by an instrument in writing
executed by order of its Board of Directors and filed with the successor
Trustee, shall and hereby covenants that it will appoint a Trustee to fill such
vacancy. After any such appointment by the Company, it shall cause notice of
such appointment to be published once a week, for two successive calendar weeks,
in one Authorized Publication printed in the English language customarily
published on each business day and of general circulation in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York, and one Authorized Publication in the City and
County of Denver, Colorado, but any new Trustee so appointed by the Company
shall immediately and without further act be superseded by a Trustee appointed
by the holders or registered owners of a majority in principal amount of the
Bonds in the manner hereinabove provided.

Any successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver
to the Company and the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment
and thereupon such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed, conveyance
or transfer, shall become vested with the title to the mortgaged property, with
all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of its

84

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

predecessor in the trust hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as
Trustee herein. Upon the request of such successor Trustee, however, the Company
and the Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver such instruments of
conveyance and further assurance and do such other things as may reasonably be
required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in such successor
Trustee all the right, title and interest of the Trustee ceasing to act in and
to the mortgaged property and all such rights, powers, trusts, duties and
obligations, and the Trustee ceasing to act shall also assign and deliver to the
successor Trustee any property subject to the lien of this Restated Indenture
which may then be in its possession.

Every successor Trustee hereunder shall always be a state or national bank or
trust company in good standing, organized under the laws of the State of New
York or the State of Colorado or of the United States of America and doing
business in The City of New York or in the City and County of Denver, Colorado,
having a capital, undivided profits and surplus aggregating at least Five
Hundred Million Dollars ($500,000,000), if there be such a bank or trust company
willing and able to accept such trust upon reasonable and customary terms.

SECTION 14.04. Provision as to Merger of Trustee. Any corporation into which the
Trustee may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation
resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a
party, or any state or national bank or trust company in any manner succeeding
to the corporate trust business of the Trustee or of any successor trustee as a
whole or substantially as a whole, shall be the successor of the Trustee
hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the
part of any of the parties hereto, anything to the contrary contained herein
notwithstanding. In case any of the Bonds shall have been authenticated but not
delivered, any such successor trustee may adopt the certificate of the Trustee
and deliver the same so authenticated; and in case any of such Bonds shall not
have been authenticated, any such successor trustee may authenticate such Bonds
in the name of such successor trustee.

SECTION 14.05. Power to Appoint Co-Trustee. At any time or times, in order to
conform to any legal requirements, the Trustee and the Company shall have power
to appoint, and upon request of the Trustee the Company shall join with the
Trustee in the execution and delivery of all instruments and the performance of
all acts necessary or proper to appoint, another trust company or bank or one or
more individuals, approved by the Trustee, either to act as co-trustee or
co-trustees of all or any part of the trust estate jointly with the Trustee, or
to act as substitute trustee or trustees of any part of the same, and in any
case with all such of the powers, rights, duties, obligations and immunities
hereby conferred or imposed on the Trustee, and for such term, if any limitation
is placed thereon, as may be specified in the instrument of appointment, the
same to be exercised jointly with the Trustee, except to the extent that under
any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be
performed the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or
acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be
exercised and performed by such co-trustee or co-trustees or substitute trustee
or trustees; and, if an event of default shall have happened and shall not have
been remedied or if the Company shall fail to join with the Trustee in any such
appointment within five days after being requested by the Trustee so to do, the
Trustee shall have power, without any action on the part of the Company and
without the necessity of the execution of any such instrument of appointment by
the Company, to appoint such co-trustee or

85

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

co-trustees or substitute trustee or trustees as aforesaid, and to execute all
instruments and perform all acts necessary or convenient and proper for such
purpose. The Trustee may receive the opinion of any counsel selected and
approved by it as to the necessity or propriety of appointing any such
co-trustee or substitute trustee and as to the form and effect of any such
instrument to be executed or any act to be taken to effect such appointment and
as to any other matter arising under this Section, and, subject to the
provisions of Section 14.01, such opinion shall be full protection to Trustee
for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it pursuant thereto.

ARTICLE XV

be deemed to be paid and retired.

C.    A written order of the Company, expressed to be irrevocable, authorizing
the Trustee to give notice of redemption of the Bonds, if any, to be redeemed as

deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Paragraph B of this Section 15.01 and the
cash, if any, deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Paragraph D of this Section

Paragraphs and that all conditions precedent which relate to the satisfaction
and discharge of this Restated Indenture have been complied with.

86

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

F.     An Opinion of Counsel, stating that all conditions precedent which relate
to the satisfaction and discharge of this Restated Indenture have been complied
with, and that the resolutions, cash, Bonds, certificates and other instruments
which have been or are therewith delivered to the Trustee conform to the
requirements of this Restated Indenture and constitute sufficient authority
under this Restated Indenture for the Trustee to satisfy and discharge the
Restated Indenture, and that, upon the basis thereof, the Trustee may lawfully
satisfy and discharge the Restated Indenture.

The Company may at any time surrender to the Trustee for cancellation by it any
Bonds previously authenticated and delivered hereunder, which the Company may
have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and such Bonds, upon such surrender and
cancellation, shall be deemed to be paid and retired.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Restated Indenture, the
Company will reimburse and indemnify the Trustee for and hold it harmless
against any loss, liability or expense, incurred without negligence or bad faith
on the part of the Trustee, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance
or administration of this trust, as well as the reasonable cost and expense of
defending against any claim of liability in the premises, as to which the
Trustee would be entitled to be reimbursed or indemnified by the Company or held
harmless by the Company if the Restated Indenture had not been so satisfied or
discharged.

SECTION 15.02. Disposition of Moneys Unclaimed by Bondholders. Any moneys
deposited with the Trustee to provide for payment of Bonds or interest or
premium thereon, and remaining unclaimed by the holders of Bonds for six (6)
years after the date upon which the moneys so deposited shall have been payable

paid by the Trustee to the Company, and upon such payment to the Company the
Trustee shall be fully relieved of any liability or responsibility in respect
thereof, and such holders shall thereafter be entitled to look only to the
Company for payment thereof. Before paying over any such moneys to the Company

of Manhattan, The City of New York and one Authorized Publication in the City
and County of Denver, Colorado, in each instance upon any day of the week,
