 (Under
Section 301 of the Subordinated Indenture of 
 PPL Capital Funding, Inc. and PPL Corporation) 
  
 The undersigned
                    ,
                     of PPL CAPITAL FUNDING, INC. (the “Company”), in accordance with Section 301 of the Subordinated
Indenture, dated as of                     , [2004], as heretofore supplemented (the “Subordinated Indenture”, capitalized terms
used herein and not defined herein having the meanings specified in the Subordinated Indenture), of the Company and PPL CORPORATION (the “Guarantor”), to JPMorgan Chase Bank (formerly known as The Chase Manhattan Bank), as Trustee
(the “Trustee”), does hereby establish for the series of Securities established in Supplemental Indenture No. 1, dated as of
                     (the “Supplemental Indenture”), the following terms and characteristics (the lettered clauses set forth below
corresponding to the lettered clauses of Section 301 of the Indenture), and the undersigned                     ,
                     of the Guarantor, does hereby approve of such terms and characteristics on behalf of the Guarantor: 
  
 (a) the title of the Securities of such series shall be
“        % Subordinated Deferrable Notes, Series     ” (the “Notes”); [The Notes are to be issued to the “Property Trustee” of PPL Capital
Funding Trust II, a                  statutory trust (the “Trust”).] 
  
 (b) the aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under the Subordinated Indenture shall
be limited to $                    , except as contemplated in Section 301(b) of the Subordinated Indenture; 
  
 (c) subject to the provisions of Section 307 of the Subordinated Indenture,
interest on the Notes (other than interest payable at Maturity) shall be payable to the Person or Persons in whose name the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the fifteenth day
(whether or not a Business Day) of the month in which the corresponding Interest Payment Date occurs; provided, however, that if the Notes are held by a securities depositary in a book-entry only form, the Regular Record Date will be one 

  

 
Business Day preceding the corresponding Interest Payment Date; and provided, further, that the Company shall have the right to change the Regular Record
Date by one or more Officer’s Certificates; interest payable at Maturity shall be paid to the Person to whom principal shall be paid; 
  
 (d) the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Notes shall be
                             and any accrued and theretofore unpaid interest on the Notes shall be due
and payable at such date; provided, however, that upon the occurrence and continuation of a Tax Event relating to non-deductibility of interest payments on the Securities of this series, in lieu of redeeming the Securities of this series, at its
option, the Company may shorten the Stated Maturity of the Securities of this series to a date not earlier than
                            . The Trustee may conclusively rely on an Officer’s Certificate
setting forth a changed Stated Maturity of the Securities of this series. 
  
 (e) the Notes shall bear interest at the rate of         % per annum, from
                     or from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as hereinafter defined) to which interest has been paid or duly provided
for; interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) commencing
                    , [2004][, subject to the right of the Company to extend interest payment periods, as described below]. [With respect to
the Notes, the term “Interest Period” shall mean each period from, and including, an Interest Payment Date to, but excluding, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, except that the first Interest Period shall commence on the date of
original issuance.]; the amount of interest payable for any Interest Period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, and with respect to any period less than a full calendar month, on the basis of the actual number of
days elapsed during such period; 
  
 [Pursuant to Section 312 of
the Subordinated Indenture, the Company shall have the right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Notes, [so long as no Event of Default has occurred and shall be continuing,] to extend the interest payment period to a period
not exceeding [20] consecutive quarterly periods (an “Extension Period”); provided that no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity or end on a day other than an Interest Payment Date. At the end of the Extension Period,
the Company shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid (together with interest thereon at the rate specified for the Notes, compounded [quarterly], to the extent permitted by applicable law). 
  
 Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Company may
further extend the interest payment period, provided that such Extension Period together with all such previous and further extensions thereof shall not exceed [20] consecutive quarterly periods at any one time or extend beyond the Stated Maturity
of the Notes. Upon the termination of any such Extension Period and the payment of all amounts then due, including interest on deferred interest payments, the Company may elect to begin a new Extension Period, subject to the above requirements. No
interest shall be due and payable during an Extension 

  

 2 

 
Period, except at the end thereof, but the Company may prepay at any time all or any portion of interest accrued during an Extended Interest Payment Period.
The Company will give the Trust and the Trustee notice of its election of an Extension Period before the Business Day prior to the record date for the distribution which would occur but for such election and will cause the Trust to send notice of
such election to the holders of Preferred Trust Securities]; 
  
 (f) the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in New York, New York shall be the office or agency of the Company at which the principal of and any premium and interest, on the Notes shall be payable, at which registration of transfer and
exchange of Notes may be effected and at which notices and demands to or upon the Company or the Guarantor in respect of the Notes or any Tranche thereof and the Subordinated Indenture may be served; provided, however, that the Company and the
Guarantor each reserve the right to change, by one or more Officers’ Certificates supplemental to this Officers’ Certificate, any such office or agency; and provided, further, that the Company and the Guarantor each reserve the right to
designate, by one or more Officers’ Certificates supplemental to this Officers’ Certificate, its principal office in Allentown, Pennsylvania or the office of the Guarantor or the Guarantor’s subsidiary, PPL Electric Utilities
Corporation in Allentown, Pennsylvania, as any such office or agency; the Trustee shall be the initial Security Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes; provided, that the Company and the Guarantor reserve the right, by one or more Officers’
Certificates supplemental to this Officers’ Certificate, to designate any additional Paying Agent (which in each case, may be the Company, the Guarantor or any Affiliate of either of them) and to remove and replace any Security Registrar or
Paying Agent; 
  
 (g) [Insert provisions for Redemption, if any]
[the Notes shall be redeemable in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, at any time on or after                     
    , 200   at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed plus any accrued but unpaid interest, [including additional Interest, if any,] thereon to the
date fixed for redemption in the manner provided in the Indenture;] 
  
 [If at any time a Tax Event (as defined below) shall occur and be continuing and either (i) in the opinion of counsel to the Company experienced in such matters, there would in all cases, after effecting the termination of the Trust, after
satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Trust, if any, as provided by applicable law, and the distribution of the Notes to the holders of the Preferred Trust Securities issued by the Trust (the “Preferred Trust Securities”), in
exchange therefor, be more than an insubstantial risk that an Adverse Tax Consequence (as defined below) would continue to exist or (ii) the Notes are not held by the Trust, then the Company shall have the right to redeem the Notes, in whole but not
in part, at any time within 90 days following the occurrence of the Tax Event, at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, (b) any judicial decision or any official administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure, notice or announcement (including any notice or announcement of intent to

 (s) [not applicable]; 
  
 (t) [reference is made to clause (r) above;] no service charge shall be made
for the registration of transfer or exchange of Notes; provided, however, that the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with the exchange or transfer; 
  
 (u) [insert alternative holiday provisions, if any]; 
  
 (v) the Notes shall be entitled to the benefits of Article Fourteen of the
Subordinated Indenture and the Guarantees to be endorsed on the Notes shall be substantially in the form established in the Supplemental Indenture;

and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Guarantee Agreement against the Guarantee Trustee. In case an Event of Default has occurred (that has not been cured or waived pursuant to Section 2.06), the Guarantee Trustee shall
exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Guarantee Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise thereof, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own

 (i) prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all such Events of
Default that may have occurred:

specifically required to be furnished to the Guarantee Trustee, the Guarantee Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Guarantee Agreement; 
  
 (ii) the Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable for any error
of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Guarantee Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Guarantee Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts upon which such judgment was made;

 any remedy available to the Guarantee Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the
Guarantee Trustee under this Guarantee Agreement; and 
  
 (iv) no provision of this Guarantee Agreement shall require the Guarantee Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its
rights or powers, if the Guarantee Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the terms of this Guarantee Agreement or adequate indemnity, reasonably

Trustee, shall be promptly delivered by the Guarantor; 
  
 (iv) the Guarantee Trustee may consult with counsel of its choice, and the written advice or Opinion of Counsel with respect to legal matters shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered

 (v) the Guarantee Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Guarantee Agreement at
the request or direction of any Holder, unless such Holder shall have provided to the Guarantee Trustee such adequate security and indemnity as would satisfy a reasonable 
  

 -7- 

 person in the position of the Guarantee Trustee, against the costs, expenses (including attorneys’
fees and expenses) and liabilities that might be incurred by it in complying with such request or direction, including such reasonable advances as may be requested by the Guarantee Trustee; provided that, nothing contained in this Section 3.02(a)(v)

 (vi) the Guarantee Trustee shall not be bound
to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or

 (vii) the Guarantee Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
through agents or attorneys, and the Guarantee Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder;

Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Trust Securities, (2) may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right or taking such other action until such instructions are received, and (3) shall be protected in relying on or acting in accordance with such
instructions; 
  
 (ix) the Guarantee Trustee
shall have no duty to see to any recording, filing or registration of any instrument (including any financing or continuation statement or any tax or securities form) (or any rerecording, refiling or re-registration thereof); and

taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Guarantee Agreement. 
  
 (c) No provision of this Guarantee Agreement shall be deemed to impose any
duty or obligation on the Guarantee Trustee to perform any act or acts or exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it in any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or in which the Guarantee Trustee shall be
unqualified or incompetent in accordance with applicable law, to perform any such act or acts or to exercise any such right, power, duty or 
  

 -8- 

 obligation. No permissive power or authority available to the Guarantee Trustee shall be construed to be a duty to act in
accordance with such power or authority.

Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Guarantee. The recitals contained in this Guarantee Agreement shall be taken as the statements of the Guarantor, and the Guarantee Trustee does not assume any responsibility for their correctness. The

by counsel determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken, or if the Guarantee Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Guarantee Trustee, determine that the proceedings so directed would be illegal
or involve it in personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders not party to such direction, and provided further that nothing in this Trust Agreement shall impair the right of the Guarantee Trustee to take any action deemed
proper by the Guarantee Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction; and (iv) any Holder may enforce this Guarantee Agreement, or institute a legal proceeding directly against the Guarantor to enforce the Guarantee Trustee’s rights
