	REASON FOR CREATION OF NEW
SERIES.

	 	WHEREAS, the Company intends to issue a series of Notes under the Note
Indenture herein referred to, and, pursuant to the Note Indenture, in
order to secure its obligations under the Loan Agreement dated as of
November 1, 2009 between the Company and the Michigan Strategic Fund
relating to the Michigan Strategic Fund Variable Rate Limited
Obligation Refunding Revenue Bonds (The Detroit Edison Company Exempt
Facilities Project), Collateralized Series 2009CT (the “Strategic Fund
Bonds”) being issued under the Trust Indenture dated as of November 1,
2009 (the “Strategic Fund Indenture”) between the Michigan Strategic
Fund and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee
(the “Strategic Fund Bond Trustee”), the Company has agreed to issue
its General and Refunding Mortgage Bonds under the Indenture in order
further to secure its obligations with respect to such Notes; and
	 
	 	 
	BONDS TO BE 2009 SERIES CT.

	 	WHEREAS, for such purpose the Company desires by this Supplemental
Indenture to create a new series of bonds, to be designated “General
and Refunding Mortgage Bonds, 2009 Series CT,” in the aggregate
principal amount of Sixty-five million dollars ($65,000,000), to be
authenticated and delivered pursuant to Section 8 of Article III of
the Indenture; and
	 
	 	 
	FURTHER ASSURANCE.

	 	WHEREAS, the Original Indenture, by its terms, includes in the
property subject to the lien thereof all of the estates and
properties, real, personal and






10









 






	 	 	 
	 

	 	mixed, rights, privileges and
franchises of every nature and kind and wheresoever situate, then or
thereafter owned or possessed by or belonging to the Company or to
which it was then or at any time thereafter might be entitled in law
or in equity (saving and excepting, however, the property therein
specifically excepted or released from the lien thereof), and the
Company therein covenanted that it would, upon reasonable request,
execute and deliver such further instruments as may be necessary or
proper for the better assuring and confirming unto the Trustee all or
any part of the trust estate, whether then or thereafter owned or
acquired by the Company (saving and excepting, however, property
specifically excepted or released from the lien thereof); and
	 
	 	 
	AUTHORIZATION OF SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURE.

	 	WHEREAS, 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, and pursuant to resolutions of its Board
of Directors, has duly resolved and determined to make, execute and
deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in the form hereof for
the purposes herein provided; and
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	WHEREAS, all conditions and requirements necessary to make this
Supplemental Indenture a valid and legally binding instrument in
accordance with its terms have been done, performed and fulfilled, and
the execution and delivery hereof have been in all respects duly
authorized;
	 
	 	 
	CONSIDERATION FOR SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURE.

	 	NOW, THEREFORE, THIS INDENTURE WITNESSETH: That The Detroit Edison
Company, in consideration of the premises and of the covenants
contained in the Indenture and of the sum of One Dollar ($1.00) and
other good and valuable consideration to it duly paid by the Trustee
at or before the ensealing and delivery of these presents, the receipt
whereof is hereby acknowledged, hereby covenants and agrees to and
with the Trustee and its successors in the trusts under the Original
Indenture and in said indentures supplemental thereto as follows:
	 
	 

	 	PART I.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	CREATION OF THREE HUNDRED FIFTY-SIXTH

SERIES OF BONDS,

GENERAL AND REFUNDING MORTGAGE BONDS,

2009 SERIES CT
	 
	 	 
	TERMS OF BONDS OF
2009 SERIES CT.

	 	SECTION 1. The Company hereby creates the three hundred fifty-sixth series of bonds
to be issued under and secured by the Original Indenture as amended to date and as
further amended by this Supplemental Indenture, to be designated, and to be
distinguished from the bonds of all other series, by the title “General and
Refunding Mortgage Bonds, 2009 Series CT” (elsewhere herein referred to as the
“bonds of 2009 Series CT”). The aggregate principal amount of bonds of 2009 Series
CT shall be limited to Sixty-five million dollars ($65,000,000), except as provided
in Sections 7 and 13 of Article II of the Original Indenture with respect to
exchanges and replacements of bonds.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Subject to the release provisions set forth below, each bond of 2009 Series CT is to
be irrevocably assigned to, and registered in the name of, The Bank of New York
Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee, or a successor trustee (said trustee or any
successor trustee being hereinafter referred to as the “Note






11









 






	 	 	 
	 

	 	Indenture Trustee”),
under the collateral trust indenture, dated as of June 30, 1993, as supplemented
(the “Note Indenture”), between the Note Indenture Trustee and the Company, to
secure payment of the Company’s 2009 Series CT Variable Rate Senior Notes due 2024
(for purposes of this Part I, the “Notes”).
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	The bonds of 2009 Series CT shall be issued as registered bonds without coupons in
denominations of a multiple of $5,000. The bonds of 2009 Series CT shall be issued
in the aggregate principal amount of $65,000,000, shall mature on August 1, 2024
(subject to earlier redemption or release) and shall bear interest at the rate of
interest established for the Strategic Fund Bonds from time to time in accordance
with the Strategic Fund Indenture, payable on such dates as interest shall be
payable on the Strategic Fund Bonds, until the principal thereof shall have become
due and payable and thereafter until the Company’s obligation with respect to the
payment of said principal shall have been discharged as provided in the Indenture.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	The bonds of 2009 Series CT shall be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and
interest as provided in the Indenture, but only to the extent and in the manner
herein provided. The bonds of 2009 Series CT shall be payable, as to principal,
premium, if any, and interest, at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough
of Manhattan, the City and State of New York, in any coin or currency of the United
States of America which at the time of payment is legal tender for public and
private debts.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Except as provided herein, each bond of 2009 Series CT shall be dated the date of
its authentication and interest shall be payable on the principal represented
thereby from the next preceding date to which interest has been paid on bonds of
2009 Series CT, unless the bond is authenticated on a date to which interest has
been paid, in which case interest shall be payable from the date of authentication,
or unless the date of authentication is prior to the first date on which interest is
payable on the Strategic Fund Bonds, in which case interest shall be payable from
November 24, 2009.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	The bonds of 2009 Series CT in definitive form shall be, at the election of the
Company, fully engraved or shall be lithographed or printed in authorized
denominations as aforesaid and numbered R-1 and upwards (with such further
designation as may be appropriate and desirable to indicate by such designation the
form, series and denomination of bonds of 2009 Series CT). Until bonds of 2009
Series CT in definitive form are ready for delivery, the Company may execute, and
upon its request in writing the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in lieu
thereof, bonds of 2009 Series CT in temporary form, as provided in Section 10 of
Article II of the Indenture. Temporary bonds of 2009 Series CT, if any, may be
printed and may be issued in authorized denominations in substantially the form of
definitive bonds of 2009 Series CT, but without a recital of redemption prices and
with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary
bonds, all as may be determined by the Company.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Interest on any bond of 2009 Series CT that is payable on any interest payment date
and is punctually paid or duly provided for shall be paid to the person in whose
name that bond, or any previous bond to the extent evidencing the same debt as that
evidenced by that bond, is registered at the close of business on the regular record
date for such interest, which regular record date shall be the






12









 






	 	 	 
	 

	 	record date for the
Strategic Fund Bonds with respect to such interest payment date. If the Company
shall default in the payment of the interest due on any interest payment date on the
principal represented by any bond of 2009 Series CT, such defaulted interest shall
forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder of that bond on the relevant
regular record date by virtue of his having been such holder, and such defaulted
interest may be paid to the registered holder of that bond (or any bond or bonds of
2009 Series CT issued upon transfer or exchange thereof) on the date of payment of
such defaulted interest or, at the election of the Company, to the person in whose
name that bond (or any bond or bonds of 2009 Series CT issued upon transfer or
exchange thereof) is registered on a subsequent record date established by notice
given by mail by or on behalf of the Company to the holders of bonds of 2009 Series
CT not less than ten (10) days preceding such subsequent record date, which
subsequent record date shall be at least five (5) days prior to the payment date of
such defaulted interest.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Bonds of 2009 Series CT shall not be assignable or transferable except as may be set
forth under Section 405 of the Note Indenture or in the supplemental note indenture
relating to the Notes, or, subject to compliance with applicable law, as may be
involved in the course of the exercise of rights and remedies consequent upon an
Event of Default under the Note Indenture. Any such transfer shall be made upon
surrender thereof for cancellation at the office or agency of the Company in the
Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New York, together with a written
instrument of transfer (if so required by the Company or by the Trustee) in form
approved by the Company duly executed by the holder or by its duly authorized
attorney. Bonds of 2009 Series CT shall in the same manner be exchangeable for a
like aggregate principal amount of bonds of 2009 Series CT upon the terms and
conditions specified herein and in Section 7 of Article II of the Indenture. The
Company waives its rights under Section 7 of Article II of the Indenture not to make
exchanges or transfers of bonds of 2009 Series CT during any period of ten (10) days
next preceding any redemption date for such bonds.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Bonds of 2009 Series CT, in definitive and temporary form, may bear such legends as
may be necessary to comply with any law or with any rules or regulations made
pursuant thereto or as may be specified in the Note Indenture.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Upon payment of the principal or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, whether
at maturity or prior to maturity by redemption or otherwise, or upon provision for
the payment thereof having been made in accordance with Article V of the Note
Indenture, bonds of 2009 Series CT in a principal amount equal to the principal
amount of such Notes, shall, to the extent of such payment of principal, premium or
interest, be deemed fully paid and the obligation of the Company thereunder to make
such payment shall forthwith cease and be discharged, and, in the case of the
payment of principal and premium, if any, such bonds shall be surrendered for
cancellation or presented for appropriate notation to the Trustee.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	In the event the Company desires to provide for the payment of bonds of 2009 Series
CT, in lieu of defeasing such bonds in accordance with the Indenture, it shall
either redeem an equal principal amount of Strategic Fund Bonds or take such action
as shall be required by Article VIII of the Strategic Fund Indenture to defease an
equal principal amount of the Strategic Fund Bonds. Pursuant to






13









 






	 	 	 
	 

	 	Section 2.03(c) of
the Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture to the Note Indenture dated November 1, 2009,
such redemption or defeasance shall result in the discharge of the Company’s
obligation with respect to such Notes and the cancellation thereof which, in
accordance with the preceding paragraph, shall result in the discharge of the
Company’s obligation with respect to the applicable bonds of 2009 Series CT and
cancellation thereof.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Any amount payable by the Company in respect of principal of bonds of 2009 Series
CT, whether at maturity or prior to maturity by redemption or upon acceleration or
otherwise, in a circumstance where there has not been a corresponding payment of
principal of Strategic Fund Bonds shall be applied simultaneously to the redemption
or defeasance of an equal principal amount of Strategic Fund Bonds in accordance
with the Strategic Fund Indenture. In the event the amount so paid is insufficient

amount as shall be necessary to make up for the deficiency.
	 
	 	 
	RELEASE.

	 	SECTION 2. From and after the Release Date (as defined in the Note Indenture), the
bonds of 2009 Series CT shall be deemed fully paid, satisfied and discharged and the
obligation of the Company thereunder shall be terminated. On the Release Date, the
bonds of 2009 Series CT shall be surrendered to and canceled by the Trustee. The
Company covenants and agrees that, prior to the Release Date, it will not take any
action that would cause the outstanding principal amount of the bonds of 2009 Series
CT to be less than the then-outstanding principal amount of the Notes.

OF 2009 SERIES CT.

	 	SECTION 3. Bonds of 2009 Series CT shall be redeemed on the respective dates and in
the respective principal amounts which correspond to the redemption dates for, and
the principal amounts to be redeemed of, the Notes.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	In the event the Company elects to redeem any Notes prior to maturity in accordance
with the provisions of the Note Indenture, the Company shall give the Trustee notice
of redemption of bonds of 2009 Series CT on the same date as it gives notice of
redemption of Notes to the Note Indenture Trustee.

	 	SECTION 4. In the event of an Event of Default under the Note Indenture and the
acceleration of all Notes, the bonds of 2009 Series CT shall be redeemable in whole
upon receipt by the Trustee of a written demand (hereinafter called a “Redemption
Demand”) from the Note Indenture Trustee stating that there has occurred under the
Note Indenture both an Event of Default and a declaration of acceleration of payment
of principal, accrued interest and premium, if any, on the Notes, specifying the
last date to which interest on the Notes has been paid (such date being hereinafter
referred to as the “Initial Interest Accrual Date”) and demanding redemption of the
bonds of said series. In addition, in the event of a required redemption of the
Notes upon demand of the Bond Trustee prior to the Release Date upon a declaration
of acceleration of the payment of the Strategic Fund Bonds, the bonds of 2009 Series
CT shall be redeemable in whole upon receipt by the Trustee of a Redemption Demand
from the Note Indenture Trustee stating that such redemption of the Notes is
required, stating that the redemption price was not paid when due and demanding
redemption of the bonds of 2009 Series CT. The Trustee shall, within five (5) days
after receiving such Redemption Demand, mail a copy thereof to the Company marked to
indicate the date of its receipt by the Trustee. Promptly upon receipt by the
Company of such copy of a






14









 






	 	 	 
	 

	 	Redemption Demand, the Company shall fix a date on which
it will redeem the bonds of said series so demanded to be redeemed (hereinafter
called the “Demand Redemption Date”). Notice of the date fixed as the Demand
Redemption Date shall be mailed by the Company to the Trustee at least ten (10) days
prior to such Demand Redemption Date. The date to be fixed by the Company as and
for the Demand Redemption Date may be any date up to and including the earlier of
(x) the 60th day after receipt by the Trustee of the Redemption Demand or (y) the
maturity date of such bonds first occurring following the 20th day after the receipt
by the Trustee of the Redemption Demand; provided, however, that if the Trustee
shall not have received such notice fixing the Demand Redemption Date on or before
the 10th day preceding the earlier of such dates, the Demand Redemption Date shall
be deemed to be the earlier of such dates. The Trustee shall mail notice of the
Demand Redemption Date (such notice being hereinafter called the “Demand Redemption
Notice”) to the Note Indenture Trustee not more than ten (10) nor less than five (5)
days prior to the Demand Redemption Date.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Each bond of 2009 Series CT shall be redeemed by the Company on the Demand
Redemption Date therefor upon surrender thereof by the Note Indenture Trustee to the
Trustee at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued
interest thereon at the rate specified for such bond from the Initial Interest
Accrual Date to the Demand Redemption Date plus an amount equal to the aggregate
premium, if any, due and payable on such Demand Redemption Date on all Notes;
provided, however, that in the event of a receipt by the Trustee of a notice that,
pursuant to Section 602 of the Note Indenture, the Note Indenture Trustee has
terminated proceedings to enforce any right under the Note Indenture, then any
Redemption Demand shall thereby be rescinded by the Note Indenture Trustee, and no
Demand Redemption Notice shall be given, or, if already given, shall be
automatically annulled; but no such rescission or annulment shall extend to or
affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee is not
authorized to take any action pursuant to a Redemption Demand and such Redemption
Demand shall be of no force or effect, unless it is executed in the name of the Note
Indenture Trustee by its President or one of its Vice Presidents.

	 	THE DETROIT EDISON COMPANY (hereinafter called the “Company”), a corporation of the
State of Michigan, for value received, hereby promises to pay to The Bank of New
York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Note Indenture Trustee, or registered assigns,
at the Company’s office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of
New York, the principal sum of                                          Dollars ($                    ) in
lawful money of the United States of America on August 1, 2024 (subject to earlier
redemption or release) and interest thereon at the rate of interest established for
the Strategic Fund Bonds from time to time in accordance with the Strategic Fund
Indenture, in like lawful money, from November 24, 2009, and after the first payment
of interest on bonds of this Series has been made or otherwise provided for, from
the most recent date to which interest has been paid or otherwise provided for, on
such dates as interest shall be payable on the Strategic Fund Bonds, until the
Company’s obligation with respect to payment of said principal shall have been
discharged, all as provided, to the extent and in the manner specified in the
Indenture hereinafter mentioned and in the supplemental indenture pursuant to which
this bond has been issued.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Under a Collateral Trust Indenture, dated as of June 30, 1993, as amended and as
further supplemented as of November 1, 2009 (hereinafter called the “Note
Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,
N.A., as successor trustee (hereinafter called the “Note Indenture Trustee”), the
Company has issued its 2009 Series CT Variable Rate Senior Notes due 2024 (the
“Notes”). This bond was originally issued to the Note Indenture Trustee so as to
secure the payment of the Notes. Payments of principal of, or premium, if any, or
interest on, the Notes shall constitute like payments on this bond as further
provided herein and in the supplemental indenture pursuant to which this bond has
been issued.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	The Notes were issued to secure the Company’s obligations under the Loan Agreement
dated as of November 1, 2009 between the Company and the Michigan Strategic Fund
relating to the Michigan Strategic Fund Variable Rate Limited Obligation Refunding
Revenue Bonds (The Detroit Edison Company Exempt Facilities Project), Collateralized
Series 2009CT (the “Strategic Fund Bonds”) being issued under the Trust Indenture
dated as of November 1, 2009 (the “Strategic Fund Indenture”) between the Michigan
Strategic Fund and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the
“Strategic Fund Bond Trustee”).
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	This bond is one of an authorized issue of bonds of the Company, unlimited as to
amount except as provided in the Indenture hereinafter mentioned or any indentures
supplemental thereto, and is one of a series of General and Refunding Mortgage Bonds
known as 2009 Series CT, limited to an aggregate principal amount of $65,000,000,
except as otherwise provided in the Indenture hereinafter mentioned. This bond and
all other bonds of said series are issued and to be issued under, and are all
equally and ratably secured (except insofar as any sinking, amortization,
improvement or analogous fund, established in accordance with the provisions of the
Indenture hereinafter mentioned, may afford additional security for the bonds of any
particular series and except as provided in Section 3 of Article VI of said
Indenture) by an Indenture, dated as of October 1, 1924, duly executed by the
Company to The






16









 






	 	 	 
	 

	 	Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as successor Trustee, to
which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto (including the Supplemental
Indenture dated as of November 1, 2009) reference is hereby made for a description
of the properties and franchises mortgaged and conveyed, the nature and extent of
the security, the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are issued and under
which additional bonds may be issued, and the rights of the holders of the bonds and
of the Trustee in respect of such security (which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto, including the Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 1,
2009, are hereinafter collectively called the “Indenture”). As provided in the
Indenture, said bonds may be for various principal sums and are issuable in series,
which may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may
otherwise vary as in said Indenture provided. With the consent of the Company and
to the extent permitted by and as provided in the Indenture, the rights and
obligations of the Company and of the holders of the bonds and the terms and
provisions of the Indenture, or of any indenture supplemental thereto, may be
modified or altered in certain respects by affirmative vote of at least eighty-five
percent (85%) in amount of the bonds then outstanding, and, if the rights of one or
more, but less than all, series of bonds then outstanding are to be affected by the
action proposed to be taken, then also by affirmative vote of at least eighty-five
percent (85%) in amount of the series of bonds so to be affected (excluding in every
instance bonds disqualified from voting by reason of the Company’s interest therein
as specified in the Indenture); provided, however, that, without the consent of the
holder hereof, no such modification or alteration shall, among other things, affect
the terms of payment of the principal of or the interest on this bond, which in
those respects is unconditional.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	This bond is redeemable prior to the Release Date upon the terms and conditions set
forth in the Indenture, including provision for redemption upon demand of the Note
Indenture Trustee following the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Note
Indenture and the acceleration of the principal of the Notes and including provision
for redemption upon demand of the Note Indenture Trustee in the event of a required
redemption of the Notes following a declaration of acceleration of the Strategic
Fund Bonds, such demand stating that such redemption of the Notes is required,
stating that the redemption price thereof was not paid when due and demanding
redemption of this bond.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Under the Indenture, funds may be deposited with the Trustee (which shall have
become available for payment), in advance of the redemption date of any of the bonds
of 2009 Series CT (or portions thereof), in trust for the redemption of such bonds
(or portions thereof) and the interest due or to become due thereon, and thereupon
all obligations of the Company in respect of such bonds (or portions thereof) so to
be redeemed and such interest shall cease and be discharged, and the holders thereof
shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such funds for any and all claims of
whatsoever nature on their part under the Indenture or with respect to such bonds
(or portions thereof) and interest. In the event the Company desires to provide for
the payment of bonds of 2009 Series CT, in lieu of defeasing such bonds in
accordance with the Indenture, the Company shall either redeem an equal principal
amount of Strategic Fund Bonds or take such action as shall be required by the
Strategic Fund Indenture to defease an equal principal amount of Strategic Fund
Bonds.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	In case an event of default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur, the






17









 






	 	 	 
	 

	 	principal
of all the bonds issued thereunder may become or be declared due and payable, in the
manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Any amount payable by the Company in respect of principal of bonds of 2009 Series
CT, whether at maturity or prior to maturity by redemption or otherwise, in a
circumstance where there has not been a corresponding payment of principal of
Strategic Fund Bonds shall be applied simultaneously to the redemption or defeasance
of an equal principal amount of Strategic Fund Bonds in accordance with the
Strategic Fund Indenture.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	Upon payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes,
whether at maturity or prior to maturity by redemption or otherwise or upon
provision for the payment thereof having been made in accordance with Article V of
the Note Indenture, bonds of 2009 Series CT in a principal amount equal to the
principal amount of such Notes, and having both a corresponding maturity date and
interest rate shall, to the extent of such payment of principal, premium or
interest, be deemed fully paid and the obligation of the Company thereunder to make
such payment shall forthwith cease and be discharged, and, in the case of the
payment of principal and premium, if any, such bonds of said series shall be
surrendered for cancellation or presented for appropriate notation to the Trustee.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	This bond is not assignable or transferable except as set forth under Section 405 of
the Note Indenture or in the supplemental indenture relating to the Notes, or,
subject to compliance with applicable law, as may be involved in the course of the
exercise of rights and remedies consequent upon an Event of Default under the Note
Indenture. Any such transfer shall be made by the registered holder hereof, in
person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, on the books of the Company
kept at its office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New
York, upon surrender and cancellation of this bond, and thereupon, a new registered
bond of the same series of authorized denominations for a like aggregate principal
amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor, and this bond with
others in like form may in like manner be exchanged for one or more new bonds of the
same series of other authorized denominations, but of the same aggregate principal
amount, all as provided and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the
Indenture, and upon payment, in any event, of the charges prescribed in the
Indenture.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	From and after the Release Date (as defined in the Note Indenture), the bonds of
2009 Series CT shall be deemed fully paid, satisfied and discharged and the
obligation of the Company thereunder shall be terminated. On the Release Date, the
bonds of 2009 Series CT shall be surrendered to and cancelled by the Trustee. The
Company covenants and agrees that, prior to the Release Date, it will not take any
action that would cause the outstanding principal amount of the bonds of 2009 Series
CT to be less than the then-outstanding principal amount of the Notes.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the interest on this
bond, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof or of the
Indenture, or of any indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, or
against any past, present or future stockholder, director or officer, as such, of
the Company, or of any predecessor or successor corporation, either directly or
through the Company or any such predecessor or successor

	 	corporation, whether for
amounts unpaid on stock subscriptions or by virtue of any constitution, statute or
rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise
howsoever; all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the
consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released by every holder or
owner hereof, as more fully provided in the Indenture.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	This bond shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until The Bank of
New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, or its
successor thereunder, shall have signed the form of certificate endorsed hereon.
	 
	 	 
	 

	 	IN WITNESS WHEREOF, THE DETROIT EDISON COMPANY has caused this instrument to be
executed by an authorized officer, with his or her manual or facsimile signatures,
and its corporate seal, or a facsimile thereof, to be impressed or imprinted hereon
and the same to be attested by its Corporate Secretary or Assistant Corporate
