series may be described by a supplemental  indenture executed by the Company and
the Trustee;

     .........WHEREAS,  the Company proposes to create under the Indenture a new
series of Senior Notes;

established,  except as may be limited in the Original  Indenture as at the time

     .........WHEREAS,  all conditions  necessary to authorize the execution and
delivery  of this  Seventh  Supplemental  Indenture  and to make it a valid  and
binding obligation of the Company have been done or performed.

     .........NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements and obligations

accordance with Section 108 hereof; or (ii) Section 3.01 or Section 3.02 of the
Insurance Agreement, the continuance of such failure for a period in excess of

         SECTION 103. Payment of Principal and Interest. The principal of the
Series G Notes shall be due at Stated Maturity (unless earlier redeemed). The
unpaid principal amount of the Series G Notes shall bear interest at the rate of
5.75% per annum until paid or duly provided for. Interest shall be paid
quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name
the Series G Notes are registered on the Regular Record Date for such Interest
Payment Date, provided that interest payable at the Stated Maturity of principal
or on a Redemption Date as provided herein will be paid to the Person to whom
principal is payable. Any such interest that is not so punctually paid or duly
provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on such Regular
Record Date and may either be paid to the Person or Persons in whose name the
Series G Notes are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date
for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice
whereof shall be given to Holders of the Series G Notes not less than ten (10)

         Payment of the principal and interest due at the Stated Maturity or
earlier redemption of the Series G Notes shall be made upon surrender of the
Series G Notes at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. The principal of
and interest on the Series G Notes shall be paid in such coin or currency of the
United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment
of public and private debts. Payments of interest (including interest on any
Interest Payment Date) will be made, subject to such surrender where applicable,
at the option of the Company, (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person
entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or (ii)
by wire transfer or other electronic transfer at such place and to such account
at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated in writing to
the Trustee at least sixteen (16) days prior to the date for payment by the
Person entitled thereto. Regardless of any other arrangement agreed to between
the Company and the Paying Agent, the Company shall deposit with the Paying
Agent sufficient funds for the principal payment due at the Stated Maturity no
later than one Business Day prior to the Stated Maturity.

         SECTION 104. Denominations. The Series G Notes may be issued in
denominations of $25, or any integral multiple thereof.

         SECTION 105. Global Securities. The Series G Notes will be issued in
the form of one or more Global Securities registered in the name of the
Depositary (which shall be The Depository Trust Company) or its nominee. Except
under the limited circumstances described below, Series G Notes represented by
one or more Global Securities will not be exchangeable for, and will not
otherwise be issuable as, Series G Notes in definitive form. The Global
Securities described above may not be transferred except by the Depositary to a
nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or
another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor Depositary or its nominee.

         Owners of beneficial interests in such a Global Security will not be
considered the Holders thereof for any purpose under the Indenture, and no
Global Security representing a Series G Note shall be exchangeable, except for
another Global Security of like denomination and tenor to be registered in the
name of the Depositary or its nominee or to a successor Depositary or its
nominee. The rights of Holders of such Global Security shall be exercised only
through the Depositary.

         Subject to the procedures of the Depositary, a Global Security shall be
exchangeable for Series G Notes registered in the names of persons other than
the Depositary or its nominee only if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company
that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depositary for such Global
Security and no successor Depositary shall have been appointed by the Company,
or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, at a time when the Depositary
is required to be so registered to act as such Depositary and no successor
Depositary shall have been appointed by the Company, in each case within 90 days
after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such cessation, (ii)
the Company in its sole discretion determines that such Global Security shall be
so exchangeable, or (iii) there shall have occurred an Event of Default with
respect to the Series G Notes. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant
to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Series G Notes registered in
such names as the Depositary shall direct.

         SECTION 106. Transfer. No service charge will be made for any transfer
or exchange of Series G Notes, but payment will be required of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
therewith.

         The Company shall not be required (a) to issue, transfer or exchange
any Series G Notes, except to the Insurer, during a period beginning at the
opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day of the mailing of a notice
pursuant to Section 1104 of the Original Indenture identifying the serial
numbers of the Series G Notes to be called for redemption, and ending at the
close of business on the day of the mailing, or (b) to transfer or exchange any
Series G Notes theretofore selected for redemption in whole or in part, except
the unredeemed portion of any Series G Note redeemed in part.

         SECTION 107. Redemption. The Series G Notes shall be subject to
redemption at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, without premium or
penalty, at any time or from time to time on or after December 9, 2009, at a
Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed plus
accrued but unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

         In the event of redemption of the Series G Notes in part only, a new
Series G Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion will be issued in the name or
names of the Holders thereof upon the surrender thereof.

         The Series G Notes will not have a sinking fund.

         Notice of redemption shall be given as provided in Section 1104 of the
Original Indenture.

         Any redemption of less than all of the Series G Notes shall, with
respect to the principal thereof, be divisible by $25.

         SECTION 108. Mandatory Redemption. Upon the occurrence of a Mandatory
Redemption Event, the Company shall redeem the Series G Notes, in whole but not
in part, prior to the Stated Maturity upon not less than 30 nor more than 60
days' notice at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus
accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date. A Mandatory Redemption Event
will be deemed to have occurred at the time that the Trustee receives written
notice from the Insurer of the occurrence of a Mandatory Redemption Event and
such notice shall constitute notice under Section 1102 of the Original Indenture
and shall not be required to be evidenced by a Board Resolution. Subject to the
notice requirements set forth herein, the Company shall redeem the Series G
Notes (i) on December 9, 2009 if the Mandatory Redemption Event occurs on or
prior to October 10, 2009 or (ii) if the Mandatory Redemption Event occurs after
October 10, 2009, within 60 days after the occurrence of the Mandatory
Redemption Event, but in no event earlier than December 9, 2009. Any notice of
redemption required to be given by the Trustee in connection with a redemption
required by this Section 108 need not be given earlier than 15 days after the
date the Trustee receives notice of a Mandatory Redemption Event pursuant to
this Section 108.

         Notice of redemption shall be given as provided in Section 1104 of the
Original Indenture.

                                    ARTICLE 2

                          Special Insurance Provisions

         SECTION 201. Supplemental Indentures. The consent of the Insurer shall
be required with respect to any indenture or indentures supplemental to the
Original Indenture requiring the consent of the Holders of the Series G Notes
pursuant to Section 902 of the Original Indenture. The Company shall deliver to
any rating agency rating the Series G Notes notice of each such indenture or
indentures supplemental to the Original Indenture and a copy thereof at least 15
days in advance of its execution and provide the Insurer with a full transcript
of all proceedings related to the execution of any such indenture or indentures
supplemental to the Original Indenture.

         SECTION 202. Events of Default and Remedies. Subject to Section 107 of
the Original Indenture and to the Trust Indenture Act, including, without
limitation, Sections 316(a)(1) and 317(a) thereof, if an Event of Default with
respect to the Series G Notes occurs and is continuing, the Insurer shall be
entitled to control and direct the enforcement of all rights and remedies
granted to the Holders of the Series G Notes or the Trustee for the benefit of
the Holders of the Series G Notes under the Indenture, including, without
limitation, (i) the right to accelerate the principal of the Series G Notes as
provided in Section 502 of the Original Indenture, and (ii) the right to annul
any such declaration of acceleration, and the Insurer shall also be entitled to
approve any waiver of an Event of Default with respect to the Series G Notes,
the obligation of the Trustee to comply with any such direction to be subject to
compliance with the conditions set forth in Sections 512 and 603(e) of the
Original Indenture (as if references in those Sections to Holders were
references to the Insurer) and the protections provided to the Trustee by
Section 601(c)(3) of the Original Indenture shall be applicable with respect to
any direction from the Insurer given pursuant hereto (as if references in said
Section to Holders were references to the Insurer). The Insurer shall be
entitled to notify the Trustee and the Company of a default referred to in
Section 501(4) of the Original Indenture relating to the Series G Notes as if it
were the Holder of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Series G
Notes, provided that such notice shall otherwise conform to the requirements of
said Section 501(4).

         The Trustee and the Company shall give the Insurer immediate notice of
any default in the payment of the principal of or interest on the Series G Notes
(the obligation of the Trustee to give such notice to be deemed satisfied if the
Paying Agent shall have provided the notice required by Section 203(a) hereof).
The Trustee and the Company shall give the Insurer notice of any event which
with the giving of notice or the passage of time would constitute an Event of
Default with respect to the Series G Notes within 30 days of the Trustee's or
the Company's knowledge thereof, provided that the Trustee shall not be deemed
to have knowledge thereof unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned
to its Corporate Trust Office shall have actual knowledge thereof or unless the
Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or the
Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Series G Notes then
Outstanding.

         No effect shall be given to payments made under the Policy in
determining whether an Event of Default with respect to the Series G Notes has
occurred or is continuing.

         SECTION 203. Insurance Policy Payment Procedures. (a) If the Paying
Agent does not have sufficient funds for any payment of principal or interest
Due for Payment by reason of the Company's Nonpayment, then any Holder of the
Series G Notes or the Paying Agent will notify the Insurer and the Fiscal Agent
named herein or any successor thereto the identity of which shall have been
evidenced to the Trustee by written notice from the Insurer by telephonic or
telegraphic notice, subsequently confirmed in writing, or written notice by
registered or certified mail. The Insurer shall make such payment to the Fiscal
Agent on the date on which such principal or interest is Due for Payment or
within one Business Day (as defined in the Policy) after receipt of the notice
of Nonpayment, whichever is later, and the Fiscal Agent shall make such payments
in accordance with the Policy. In addition to the foregoing:

         (i) The Paying Agent shall provide the Insurer and the Fiscal Agent
with a list of the Holders entitled to receive principal or interest payments
from the Insurer under the terms of the Policy and shall make arrangements for
the Insurer and the Fiscal Agent to disburse such amount Due for Payment on any
Series G Note to the Holder or the Paying Agent.

         (ii) The Paying Agent shall, at the same time that it provides the
Insurer with the list of Holders, notify the Holders entitled to receive payment
of principal or interest on the Series G Notes from the Insurer (A) as to the
fact of such entitlement, (B) that the Insurer will remit to them or the Paying
Agent all or part of the interest payments Due for Payment, (C) that, except as
provided in paragraph (b) below, in the event that the Holder is entitled to
receive full payment of principal from the Insurer, such Holder must tender the
Series G Note to the Insurer or the Paying Agent with an instrument of transfer
executed in the name of the Insurer and (D) that, except as provided in
paragraph (b) below, in the event that such Holder is entitled to receive
partial payment of principal from the Insurer, such Holder must tender its
Series G Note for payment to the Paying Agent which shall note on such Series G
Note the portion of principal paid by the Paying Agent, and then, with an
acceptable form of assignment executed in the name of the Insurer, to the Fiscal
Agent which will then pay the unpaid portion of principal to the Holder subject
to the terms of the Policy.

         (b) In the event that the Trustee has written notice that any payment
of principal of or interest on a Series G Note has been recovered from a Holder
pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy Code by a trustee in bankruptcy in
accordance with the final, nonappealable order of a court having competent
jurisdiction, the Trustee shall notify the Insurer of such recovery in
accordance with the notice requirements of Section 203(a) hereof and, in the
event a Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned to its Corporate Trust
Department has actual knowledge of such recovery, or the Trustee has received
written notice from the Company or the Holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of the Series G Notes then Outstanding, the Trustee shall also notify all
Holders that in the event that any Holder's payment is so recovered, such Holder
will be entitled to payment from the Insurer to the extent of such recovery. The
Paying Agent shall furnish to the Insurer its records evidencing the payments of
principal of and interest on the Series G Notes which have been made by the
Paying Agent and subsequently recovered from the Holders, and the dates on which
such payments were made.

         (c) The Insurer shall, to the extent it makes payment of principal of
or interest on the Series G Notes, become subrogated to the rights of the
recipients of such payments in accordance with the terms of the Policy and, to
evidence such subrogation, (i) in the case of subrogation as to claims for past
due interest, the Trustee shall note the Insurer's rights as subrogee on the
Security Register maintained by the Trustee upon receipt from the Insurer of
proof of the payment of interest thereon to the Holder of such Series G Notes
and (ii) in the case of subrogation as to claims for past due principal, the
Trustee shall note the Insurer's rights as subrogee on the Security Register for
the Series G Notes maintained by the Trustee, as Security Registrar, upon
receipt of proof of the payment of the principal thereof to the Holders of such
Series G Notes. Notwithstanding anything in this Seventh Supplemental Indenture
or the Series G Notes to the contrary, the Paying Agent shall make payment of
such past due interest and past due principal directly to the Insurer to the
extent that the Insurer is a subrogee with respect thereto.

         SECTION 204. Application of Term "Outstanding" to Series G Notes. In
the event that the principal and/or interest due on the Series G Notes shall be
paid by the Insurer pursuant to the Policy, the Series G Notes shall remain
Outstanding for all purposes of the Indenture, shall not be considered defeased
or otherwise satisfied and shall not be considered paid by the Company, and the
Indenture and all covenants, agreements and other obligations of the Company to
the Holders of the Series G Notes shall continue to exist and such covenants,
agreements and other obligations shall run to the benefit of the Insurer, and
the Insurer shall be subrogated to the rights of such Holders to the extent of
each such payment.

         SECTION 205. Concerning the Special Insurance Provisions. The
provisions of this Article 2 shall apply notwithstanding anything in the
Indenture to the contrary, but only so long as the Policy shall be in full force
and effect and the Insurer is not in default thereunder.



                                    ARTICLE 3

                            Miscellaneous Provisions

         SECTION 301. Recitals by Company. The recitals in this Seventh
Supplemental Indenture are made by the Company only and not by the Trustee, and
all of the provisions contained in the Original Indenture in respect of the
rights, privileges, immunities, powers and duties of the Trustee shall be
applicable in respect of Series G Notes and of this Seventh Supplemental
Indenture as fully and with like effect as if set forth herein in full.

         SECTION 302. Ratification and Incorporation of Original Indenture. As
heretofore supplemented and as supplemented hereby, the Original Indenture is in
all respects ratified and confirmed, and the Original Indenture as heretofore
supplemented and as further supplemented by this Seventh Supplemental Indenture
shall be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument.

         SECTION 303. Executed in Counterparts. This Seventh Supplemental
Indenture may be simultaneously executed in several counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall together
constitute but one and the same instrument.

         Savannah Electric and Power Company, a Georgia corporation (the

any overdue principal and on any overdue installment of interest. The interest
so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment

Redemption Date) will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in
whose name this Note (the "Note") is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date as specified above next preceding such Interest Payment

Date will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. Except as

given to Holders of Notes of this series not less than 10 days prior to such
Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not

shall be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on this Note is
not a Business Day, then payment of the interest payable on such date will be
made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest
or other payment in respect of any such delay), with the same force and effect
as if made on the date the payment was originally payable. A "Business Day"
shall mean any day other than a Saturday or a Sunday or a day on which banking
institutions in New York City are authorized or required by law or executive
order to remain closed or a day on which the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee is closed for business.

         Payment of the principal of and interest due at the Stated Maturity or
earlier redemption of the Series G Notes shall be made upon surrender of the
Series G Notes at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. The principal of
and interest on the Series G Notes shall be paid in such coin or currency of the
United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment
of public and private debts. Payment of interest (including interest on an
Interest Payment Date) will be made, subject to such surrender where applicable,
at the option of the Company, (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person
entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or (ii)
by wire transfer or other electronic transfer at such place and to such account
at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated in writing to
the Trustee at least 16 days prior to the date for payment by the Person
entitled thereto.

         REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE SET
FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF, WHICH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES
HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS IF SET FORTH AT THIS PLACE.

         Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by
the Trustee by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit
under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

the respective rights, limitation of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of
the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes issued thereunder and of

authorized denominations and of like tenor and for the same aggregate principal
amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service

                             STATEMENT OF INSURANCE

         Financial Guaranty Insurance Company (the "Insurer") has issued a
surety bond containing the following provisions with respect to the Series G
Notes, such surety bond being on file at the principal corporate trust office of
Trustee, as paying agent for the Series G Notes (the "Paying Agent"):

         The Insurer hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay for
disbursement to the Holders that portion of the principal of and interest on the
Series G Notes which is then Due for Payment and which the Company shall have
failed to provide. Due for Payment means, with respect to principal, the stated
maturity date thereof, and does not refer to any earlier date on which the
payment of principal of the Series G Notes is due by reason of call for
redemption, acceleration or other advancement of maturity and, with respect to
interest, the stated date for payment of such interest.

         Upon receipt of telephonic or telegraphic notice, subsequently
confirmed in writing, or written notice by registered or certified mail, from a
Holder or the Paying Agent to the Insurer that the required payment of principal
or interest has not been made by the Company to the Paying Agent, the Insurer on
the due date of such payment or within one Business Day (as defined in the
surety bond) after receipt of notice of such nonpayment, whichever is later,
will make a deposit of funds, in an account with U.S. Bank Trust National
Association, or its successor as its agent (the "Fiscal Agent"), sufficient to
make the portion of such payment not paid by the Company. Upon presentation to
the Fiscal Agent of evidence satisfactory to it of the Holder's right to receive
such payment and any appropriate instruments of assignment required to vest all
of such Holder's right to such payment in the Insurer, the Fiscal Agent will
disburse such amount to the Holder.

         As used herein the term "Holder" means the person other than the
Company or the borrower(s) of note proceeds who at the time of nonpayment of a
Series G Note is entitled under the terms of such Series G Note to payment
thereof.

         The surety bond is non-cancellable for any reason.
