OHIO EDISON COMPANY

 

Mortgage Bond, Security Series A of 2004 due 2033

 

This bond is one of an issue of bonds of the Company, issuable in
series, and is one of a series known as its Mortgage Bonds of the series
designated in its title, all issued and to be issued under and equally secured
(except as to any money, obligations or other instruments, or earnings thereon,
deposited with the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture
hereinafter mentioned for the bonds of any particular series) by a General
Mortgage Indenture and Deed of Trust, dated as of January 1, 1998, executed by
the Company to The Bank of New York, as Trustee, as amended and supplemented by
indentures supplemental thereto to which Indenture as so amended and
supplemented (herein referred to as the åIndentureæ) reference is made for a
description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the
security, the rights of the holders of the bonds in respect thereof and the
terms and conditions upon which the bonds are secured.

 

4

The bonds of this series shall be redeemed in whole, by payment of
the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest thereon, if any, to the date
fixed for redemption, upon receipt by the Trustee of a written advice from the
trustee under the Amended and Restated Trust Indenture (the åRevenue Bond
Indentureæ) dated as of June 1, 2004, between the Beaver County Industrial
Development Authority and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association, as
successor trustee (such trustee and any successor trustee being hereinafter
referred to as the åRevenue Bond Trusteeæ), securing $108,000,000 of
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series
1999-A (Ohio Edison Company Project) which have been issued on behalf of the
Company (the åRevenue Bondsæ), stating that the principal amount of all the
Revenue Bonds then outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture has been
declared due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.02 of the
Revenue Bond Indenture, specifying the date of the accelerated maturity of such
Revenue Bonds and the date from which interest on the Revenue Bonds issued under
the Revenue Bond Indenture has then accrued and is unpaid (specifying the rate
or rates of such accrual and the principal amount of the particular Revenue
Bonds to which such rates apply), stating such declaration of maturity has not
been annulled and demanding payment of the principal amount hereof plus accrued
interest hereon to the date fixed for such redemption. The date fixed for such
redemption shall not be earlier than the date specified in the aforesaid written
advice as the date of the accelerated maturity of the Revenue Bonds then
outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture and not later than the
45th day after receipt by the Trustee of such advice, unless such
45th day is earlier than such date of accelerated maturity. The date
fixed for such redemption shall be specified by the Revenue Bond Trustee in a
notice of redemption to be given by the Trustee not less than 30 days prior to
the date so fixed for such redemption. Upon mailing of such notice of
redemption, the date from which unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then
accrued (as specified by the Revenue Bond Trustee) shall become the initial
interest accrual date (the åInitial Interest Accrual Dateæ) with respect to the
bonds of this series; provided, however, on any demand for payment of the
principal amount hereof at maturity as a result of the principal of the Revenue
Bonds becoming due and payable on the maturity date of the bonds of this series,
the earliest date from which unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then
accrued shall become the Initial Interest Accrual Date with respect to the bonds
of this series, such date, together with each other different date from which
unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued, as to be stated in a
written notice from the Revenue Bond Trustee to the Trustee, which notice shall
also specify the rate or rates of such accrual and the principal amount of the
particular Revenue Bonds to which such rate or rates apply. The aforementioned
notice of redemption shall become null and void for all purposes under the
Indenture, (including the fixing of the Initial Interest Accrual Date with
respect to the bonds of this series) upon receipt by the Trustee of written
notice from the Revenue Bond Trustee of the annulment of the acceleration of the
maturity of the Revenue Bonds then outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture
and the rescission of the aforesaid written advice prior to the redemption date
specified in such notice of redemption, and thereupon no redemption of the bonds
of this series and no payment in respect thereof as specified in such notice of
redemption shall be effected or required. But no such rescission shall extend to
any subsequent written advice from the Revenue Bond Trustee or impair any right
consequent on such subsequent written advice.

 

Bonds of this series are not otherwise redeemable prior to their
maturity.

 

5

From and after the Release Date (as defined in the Revenue Bond
Indenture), the bonds of this series shall be deemed fully paid, satisfied and
discharged and the obligation of the Company thereunder shall be terminated. On
the Release Date, the Holder (as defined in the Indenture) shall surrender the
bonds of this series to the Trustee for cancellation, and upon the receipt of a
Company Order (as defined in the Indenture), the Trustee shall cancel
same.

 

The åRevenue Bond Interest Rateæ shall be the same rate of interest
per annum as is borne by the Revenue Bonds; provided, however, that if there are
different rates of interest borne by the Revenue Bonds, or if interest is
required to be paid on the Revenue Bonds more frequently than on each June 1 or
December 1, the Revenue Bond Interest Rate shall be the rate that results in the
total amount of interest payable on an interest payment date, a redemption date
or at maturity, as the case may be, or at any other time interest on this bond
is due and payable, to be equal to the total amount of unpaid interest that has
accrued on all then outstanding Revenue Bonds.

 

The principal hereof may be declared or may become due on the
conditions, in the manner and at the time set forth in the Indenture upon the
occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture)
as in the Indenture provided.

 

Bonds of this series shall be deemed to be paid and no longer
outstanding under the Indenture to the extent the aggregate principal amount of
bonds of this series exceeds the aggregate principal amount of the Revenue Bonds
outstanding from time to time. The Trustee may rely on an Officer’s Certificate
(as defined in the Indenture) to this effect.

 

Unless and until the Trustee shall have received from the Revenue
Bond Trustee any such aforesaid written advice stating that the principal amount
of all Revenue Bonds then outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture has been
declared due and payable or any demand for payment of the principal amount
hereof at maturity as a result of the principal of the Revenue Bonds becoming
due and payable on the maturity date of the bonds of this series, the Trustee
may conclusively presume that the obligation of the Company to pay the principal
of, and interest, if any, on the bonds of this series shall have been fully
satisfied and discharged.

 

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or
premium, or interest if any, on this bond, or any part thereof, or for any claim
based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, or of the indebtedness
represented thereby, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement under the
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 directly or through the Company or a predecessor or
successor corporation, whether by virtue of any Constitutional provision,
statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or
otherwise, all such liability of incorporators, stockholders, officers and
directors being released by the registered owner hereof by the acceptance of
this bond and being likewise waived and released by the terms of the
Indenture.

 

6

The bonds of this series are issuable only as a single registered
bond without coupons in a denomination equal to the aggregate principal amount
of bonds of this series outstanding. If and to the extent this bond becomes
transferable, the registered owner hereof, in person or by attorney duly
authorized, may effectuate such transfer at an office or agency of the Company,
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York or in the City of
Akron, Ohio, upon surrender and cancellation of this bond and thereupon a new
registered bond or bonds of the same series for a like principal amount, will be
issued to the transferee in exchange therefor, as provided in the Indenture, and
upon payment, if the Company shall require it, of the transfer charges therein
prescribed. The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose
name this bond is registered as the absolute owner for the purpose of receiving
payment of or on account of the principal and interest due hereon and for all
other purposes.

OHIO EDISON
COMPANY

 

Mortgage Bond,
Guarantee Series A of 2004 due 2016

 

This bond is one of
an issue of bonds of the Company, issuable in series, and is one of a series
known as its Mortgage Bonds of the series designated in its title, all issued
and to be issued under and equally secured (except as to any money, obligations
or other instruments, or earnings thereon, deposited with the Trustee in
accordance with the provisions of the Indenture hereinafter mentioned for the
bonds of any particular series) by a General Mortgage Indenture and Deed of
Trust, dated as of January 1, 1998, executed by the Company to The Bank of New
York, as Trustee, as amended and supplemented by indentures supplemental thereto
to which Indenture as so amended and supplemented (herein referred to as the
“Indenture”) reference is made for a description of the property mortgaged and
pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the rights of the holders of the
bonds in respect thereof and the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are
secured.

 

4

The bonds of this
series shall be redeemed in whole, by payment of the principal amount thereof
plus accrued interest thereon, if any, to the date fixed for redemption, upon
receipt by the Trustee of a written advice from the trustee under the Amended
and Restated Trust Indenture 

 

(the “Revenue Bond
Indenture”) dated as of December 1, 2004, between the Ohio Air Quality
Development Authority and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association, as
successor trustee (such trustee and any successor trustee being hereinafter
referred to as the “Revenue Bond Trustee”), securing $47,725,000 of State of
Ohio Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 1999-C (Ohio Edison
Company Project) which have been issued on behalf of the Company (the “Revenue
Bonds”), stating that the principal amount of all the Revenue Bonds then
outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture has been declared due and payable
pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.02 of the Revenue Bond Indenture,
specifying the date of the accelerated maturity of such Revenue Bonds and the
date from which interest on the Revenue Bonds issued under the Revenue Bond
Indenture has then accrued and is unpaid (specifying the rate or rates of such
accrual and the principal amount of the particular Revenue Bonds to which such
rates apply), stating such declaration of maturity has not been annulled and
demanding payment of the principal amount hereof plus accrued interest hereon to
the date fixed for such redemption. The date fixed for such redemption shall not
be earlier than the date specified in the aforesaid written advice as the date
of the accelerated maturity of the Revenue Bonds then outstanding under the
Revenue Bond Indenture and not later than the 45th day after receipt
by the Trustee of such advice, unless such 45th day is earlier
than such date of accelerated maturity. The date fixed for such redemption shall
be specified by the Revenue Bond Trustee in a notice of redemption to be given
by the Trustee not less than 30 days prior to the date so fixed for such
redemption. Upon mailing of such notice of redemption, the date from which
unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued (as specified by the
Revenue Bond Trustee) shall become the initial interest accrual date (the
“Initial Interest Accrual Date”) with respect to the bonds of this series;
provided, however, on any demand for payment of the principal amount hereof at
maturity as a result of the principal of the Revenue Bonds becoming due and
payable on the maturity date of the bonds of this series, the earliest date from
which unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued shall become the
Initial Interest Accrual Date with respect to the bonds of this series, such
date, together with each other different date from which unpaid interest on the
Revenue Bonds has then accrued, as to be stated in a written notice from the
Revenue Bond Trustee to the Trustee, which notice shall also specify the rate or
rates of such accrual and the principal amount of the particular Revenue Bonds
to which such rate or rates apply. The aforementioned notice of redemption shall
become null and void for all purposes under the Indenture, (including the fixing
of the Initial Interest Accrual Date with respect to the bonds of this series)
upon receipt by the Trustee of written notice from the Revenue Bond Trustee of
the annulment of the acceleration of the maturity of the Revenue Bonds then
outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture and the rescission of the aforesaid
written advice prior to the redemption date specified in such notice of
redemption, and thereupon no redemption of the bonds of this series and no
payment in respect thereof as specified in such notice of redemption shall be
effected or required. But no such rescission shall extend to any subsequent
written advice from the Revenue Bond Trustee or impair any right consequent on
such subsequent written advice.

 

Bonds of this
series are not otherwise redeemable prior to their maturity.

 

5

The “Revenue Bond
Interest Rate” shall be the same rate of interest per annum as is borne by the
Revenue Bonds; provided, however, that if there are different rates of interest
borne by the Revenue Bonds, or if interest is required to be paid on the Revenue
Bonds more frequently than on each June 1 or December 1, the Revenue Bond
Interest Rate shall be the rate that results in the total amount of interest
payable on an interest payment date, a redemption date or at maturity, as the
case may be, or at any other time interest on this bond is due and payable, to
be equal to the total amount of unpaid interest that has accrued on all then
outstanding Revenue Bonds.

 

The principal
hereof may be declared or may become due on the conditions, in the manner and at
the time set forth in the Indenture upon the occurrence and continuance of an
Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) as in the Indenture
provided.

 

Bonds of this
series shall be deemed to be paid and no longer outstanding under the Indenture
to the extent the aggregate principal amount of bonds of this series exceeds the
aggregate principal amount of the Revenue Bonds outstanding from time to time.
The Trustee may rely on an Officer’s Certificate (as defined in the Indenture)
to this effect.

 

Unless and until
the Trustee shall have received from the Revenue Bond Trustee any such aforesaid
written advice stating that the principal amount of all Revenue Bonds then
outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture has been declared due and payable
or any demand for payment of the principal amount hereof at maturity as a result
of the principal of the Revenue Bonds becoming due and payable on the maturity
date of the bonds of this series, the Trustee may conclusively presume that the
obligation of the Company to pay the principal of, and interest, if any, on the
bonds of this series shall have been fully satisfied and
discharged.

 

No
recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or premium, or
interest if any, on this bond, or any part thereof, or for any claim based
thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, or of the indebtedness represented
thereby, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement under the 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 directly or through the Company or a predecessor or successor
corporation, whether by virtue of any Constitutional provision, statute or rule
of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all
such liability of incorporators, stockholders, officers and directors being
released by the registered owner hereof by the acceptance of this bond and being
likewise waived and released by the terms of the Indenture.

 

The bonds of this
series are issuable only as a single registered bond without coupons in a
denomination equal to the aggregate principal amount of bonds of this series
outstanding. If and to the extent this bond becomes transferable, the registered
owner hereof, in person or by attorney duly authorized, may effectuate such
transfer at an office or agency of the Company, in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, New York or in the City of Akron, Ohio, upon surrender and
cancellation of this bond and thereupon a new registered bond or bonds of the
same series for a like principal amount, will be issued to the transferee in
exchange therefor, as provided in the Indenture, and upon payment, if the
Company shall require it, of the transfer 

 

6

charges therein
prescribed. The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose
name this bond is registered as the absolute owner for the purpose of receiving
payment of or on account of the principal and interest due hereon and for all
other purposes. 

 

[End of Form of
Bond of Guarantee Series A] 

 

and 

 

WHEREAS, the
Company deems it advisable to enter into this Supplemental Indenture for the
purposes of establishing the form, terms and provisions of the bonds of
Guarantee Series A, as provided and contemplated by Sections 2.01(a) and 3.01(b)
of the Indenture, and the Company has requested and hereby requests the Trustee
to join in the execution of this Supplemental Indenture;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, IT
IS HEREBY COVENANTED, DECLARED AND AGREED, by the Company, that all such bonds
of Guarantee Series A are to be issued, authenticated and delivered, subject to
this Supplemental Indenture and to the further covenants, conditions, uses and
trusts in the Indenture set forth, and the parties hereto mutually agree as

SECTION
1. Bonds of Guarantee

Akron, Ohio.

 

Definitive bonds of
Guarantee Series A may be issued, originally or otherwise, only as registered
bonds, substantially in the form of bond hereinabove set forth, and in a single
denomination equal to the aggregate principal amount thereof that is
Outstanding. Delivery of a bond of Guarantee Series A to the Trustee for
authentication shall be conclusive evidence that its serial number has been duly
approved by the Company.

 

The bonds of
Guarantee Series A shall be redeemable as provided in the form of bond
hereinabove set forth, and such provisions are incorporated at this place as

hereinabove set forth) outstanding from time to time. The Trustee may rely on an
Officer’s Certificate to this effect.

 

7

Unless and until
the Trustee shall have received from the Revenue Bond Trustee any written advice
stating that the principal amount of all Revenue Bonds then outstanding under
the Revenue Bond Indenture has been declared due and payable or any demand for
payment of the principal amount hereof at maturity as a result of the principal
of the Revenue Bonds becoming due and payable on the maturity date of the bonds
of this series, as provided in the form of the bond of Guarantee Series A
hereinabove set forth, the Trustee may conclusively presume that the obligation
of the Company to pay the principal of, and interest, if any, on the bonds of
Guarantee Series A shall have been fully satisfied and discharged.

 

SECTION
3. Bonds of Guarantee
Series A are not transferable except in connection with the exercise of the
rights and remedies of the holder thereof consequent upon an “Event of Default”
as defined in the Indenture or as otherwise provided in the form of bond
hereinabove set forth. If and to the extent bonds of Guarantee Series A become
transferable, such transfer may be accomplished by the Holders thereof, in
person or by attorney duly authorized, at an office or agency of the Company in
the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York or in the City of
Akron, Ohio, but only in the manner and upon the conditions prescribed in the
Indenture and in the form of bond of such series hereinabove
recited.

 

SECTION
