REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATION; COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

SECTION 2.01.  Reimbursement Obligation.

(a)  The Company agrees to reimburse XLCA, from any available funds, immediately and unconditionally upon demand for all amounts advanced by XLCA under the Policy. To the extent that any such payment due hereunder is not paid when due, interest shall accrue on such unpaid amounts at a rate equal to the Effective Interest Rate.

(b)  The Company also agrees to reimburse XLCA immediately and unconditionally upon demand for all reasonable expenses incurred by XLCA in connection with the enforcement by XLCA of the Company's obligations under this Agreement, together with interest accruing at the Effective Interest Rate on any unpaid expenses from and including the date which is 30 days from the date a statement for such expenses is received by the Company to the date of payment. It is understood and agreed that the fees and expenses of any nationally recognized law firm shall be deemed reasonable for purposes of this paragraph.

SECTION 2.02.  Covenants.

(a)     Indebtedness to Total Capitalization. The Company shall at all times cause the ratio of (i) Indebtedness of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries to (ii) Total Capitalization to be less than or equal to 0.68 to 1.0.

(b)     Issuance Test Covenant. The Company will not issue any additional First Mortgage Bonds without the consent of XLCA if at the time of the calculation after giving effect to such issuance:

(i)     The long term rating for such First Mortgage Bonds by S&P or Moody's will be at or below A- (negative outlook) or (negative credit watch) or A3 (negative outlook) or (negative credit watch), respectively and the proposed issuance would cause the proportion of First Mortgage Bonds to Total Indebtedness to exceed 50%.

(ii)     The long term rating for such First Mortgage Bonds by S&P or Moody's will be at or above A- (stable outlook) or A3 (stable outlook), respectively and the proposed issuance would cause the proportion of First Mortgage Bonds to Total Indebtedness to exceed 75%;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, should the Company issue First Mortgage Bonds in excess of 50% of Total Indebtedness (such excess, "Excess First Mortgage Bonds") and should the long term rating assigned to First Mortgage Bonds subsequently be reduced by S&P or Moody's to or below A- (negative outlook) or (negative credit watch) or A3 (negative outlook) or (negative credit watch), respectively, the Company shall be under no obligation to replace its Excess First Mortgage Bonds with unsecured debt, but the consent of XLCA shall be required prior to the issuance of any additional First Mortgage Bonds.

SECTION 2.03.  Unconditional Obligation. The obligations of the Company hereunder are absolute and unconditional and will be paid or performed strictly in accordance with this Agreement, irrespective of:

(a)  any lack of validity or enforceability of, or any amendment or other modification of, or waiver with respect to the Bonds or any of the Bond Documents;

(b)  any exchange, release or nonperfection of any security interest in property securing the Bonds or this Agreement or any obligations hereunder;

(c)  any circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or discharge of, the Company or the Issuer under the Bond Documents or otherwise with respect to the Bonds; and

The Company may cancel the Policy at any time provided that the Premium shall not be refundable for any reason.

SECTION 4.08.  Exercise of Rights. No failure or delay on the part of XLCA to exercise any right, power or privilege under this Agreement and no course of dealing between XLCA and the Company or any other party shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which XLCA would otherwise have pursuant to law or equity.
