 AVISTA CORPORATION, a corporation of the State of Washington (hereinafter
called the Company), for value received, hereby promises to pay to 
 , as Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement hereinafter referred
to or registered assigns on April 5, 2011 (or such later date to which such Stated Maturity shall have been extended as provided below) 
 DOLLARS 
 and to pay the registered owner hereof interest thereon from November __, 2009 in
arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing December 31, 2008 (each such date being hereinafter called an “Interest Payment Date”) and at Maturity (as hereinafter
defined), at the rate of eight per centum (8%) per annum computed as provided in the Forty-seventh Supplemental Indenture hereinafter referred to, until the Company’s obligation with respect to the payment of such principal shall have been
discharged. The principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this bond payable at Maturity shall be payable upon presentation hereof at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in such coin or
currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts. The interest on this bond (other than interest payable at Maturity) shall be paid directly to the registered owner hereof. Interest
payable at Maturity shall be paid to the person to whom principal shall be paid. As used herein, the term “Maturity” shall mean the date on which the principal of this bond becomes due and payable, whether at stated maturity, upon
redemption or acceleration, or otherwise. 
 This bond is one of an issue of bonds of the Company issuable in series and is one
of a series known as its First Mortgage Bonds, Collateral Series 2009A, all bonds of all such series being issued and issuable under and equally secured (except insofar as any sinking or other fund, established in accordance with the provisions of
the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may afford additional security for the bonds of any particular series) by a Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of June 1, 1939, executed by the Company (formerly known as The Washington

  

 D-1 

 
Water Power Company) to City Bank Farmers Trust Company and Ralph E. Morton, as Trustees (Citibank, N.A., successor Trustee to both said Trustees). Such mortgage and deed of trust has been
amended and supplemented by various supplemental indentures, including the Forty-seventh Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2009 (the “Forty-seventh Supplemental Indenture”) and, as so amended and supplemented, is herein
called the “Mortgage” . Reference is made to the Mortgage for a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the rights of the holders of the bonds and of the Trustee in respect thereof, the
duties and immunities of the Trustee and the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are and are to be secured and the circumstances under which additional bonds may be issued. By its acceptance of this bond, the holder hereof is deemed to have
consented and agreed to all of the terms and provisions of the Mortgage. 
 The Mortgage may be modified or altered by
affirmative vote of the holders of at least 60% in principal amount of the bonds outstanding under the Mortgage, considered as one class, or, if the rights of one or more, but less than all, series of bonds then outstanding are to be affected, then
such modification or alteration may be effected with the affirmative vote only of 60% in principal amount of the bonds outstanding of the series so to be affected, considered as one class, and, furthermore, for limited purposes, the Mortgage may be
modified or altered without any consent or other action of holders of any series of bonds. No modification or alteration shall, however, permit an extension of the Maturity of the principal of, or interest on, this bond or a reduction in such
principal or the rate of interest hereon or any other modification in the terms of payment of such principal or interest or the creation of any lien equal or prior to the lien of the Mortgage or deprive the holder of a lien on the mortgaged and
pledged property without the consent of the holder hereof. 
 The bonds of this series are not redeemable, in whole or in part,
at the option of the Company. 
 The bonds of this series have been issued and delivered to Union Bank of California, N.A., as
Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement (as such terms are defined in the Forty-seventh Supplemental Indenture) in order to provide the benefit of the lien of the Mortgage as security for the obligation of the Company under the Credit
Agreement to pay the Obligations (as so defined), to the extent and subject to the limitations set forth below. 
 Upon the
earliest of (A) the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, and further upon the condition that, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Commitments (as defined in the Forty-seventh Supplemental
Indenture) shall have been or shall have terminated and any Loans (as so defined) outstanding shall have been declared to be or shall have otherwise become due and payable immediately and the Administrative Agent shall have delivered to the Company
a notice demanding redemption of the bonds of this series which notice states that it is being delivered pursuant to Article VII of the Credit Agreement, (B) the occurrence of an Event of Default under clause (g) or (h) of Article VII
of the Credit Agreement, and (C) the Stated Maturity (as defined below), then all bonds of this series shall be redeemed or paid immediately at the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date of redemption or payment. 

 

 D-2 

 The obligation of the Company to pay the accrued interest on bonds of this series on any
Interest Payment Date prior to Maturity (a) shall be deemed to have been satisfied and discharged in full in the event that all amounts then due in respect of the Obligations shall have been paid or (b) shall be deemed to remain
unsatisfied in an amount equal to the aggregate amount then due in respect of the Obligations and remaining unpaid (not in excess, however, of the amount otherwise then due in respect of interest on the bonds of this series). 
 The obligation of the Company to pay the principal of and accrued interest on bonds of this series at or after Maturity (x) shall be
deemed to have been satisfied and discharged in full in the event that all amounts then due in respect of the Obligations shall have been paid or (y) shall be deemed to remain unsatisfied in an amount equal to the aggregate amount then due in
respect of the Obligations and remaining unpaid (not in excess, however, of the amount otherwise then due in respect of principal of and accrued interest on the bonds of this series). 
 As used herein, “Stated Maturity” means April 5, 2011 or such later date to which such date shall have been extended as
provided in the Forty-seventh Supplemental Indenture. 
 Anything in this bond to the contrary notwithstanding, if, at the time
of the Maturity of the bonds of this series, the stated aggregate principal amount of such bonds then outstanding shall exceed the aggregate Commitments, the aggregate principal amount of such bonds shall be deemed to have been reduced by the amount
of such excess. 
 The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to the stated maturity date on the conditions,
in the manner and at the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a Completed Default as in the Mortgage provided. 
 As provided in the Mortgage and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this bond or any portion of the principal amount hereof will be deemed to have been paid if there has been irrevocably deposited with the Trustee moneys or
direct obligations of or obligations guaranteed by the United States of America, the principal of and interest on which when due, and without regard to any reinvestment thereof, will provide moneys which, together with moneys so deposited, will be
sufficient to pay when due the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this bond when due. 
 The Mortgage contains
terms, provisions and conditions relating to the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into, and the conveyance or other transfer, or lease, of assets to, another corporation and to the assumption by such other corporation, in certain
circumstances, of all of the obligations of the Company under the Mortgage and on the bonds secured thereby. 
 This bond is
non-transferable except as required to effect transfer to any successor administrative agent under the Credit Agreement, any such transfer to be made at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, upon
surrender and cancellation of this bond, together with a written instrument of transfer whenever required by the Company duly executed by the registered owner or by its duly authorized attorney, and, thereupon, a new fully registered bond of the
same series for a like principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange herefor as provided in the Mortgage. The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this bond is registered as the absolute owner hereof
for the purpose of receiving payment and for all other purposes. 
  

 D-3 

 In the manner prescribed in the Mortgage, any bonds of this series, upon surrender thereof
for cancellation at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of bonds of the same series of other authorized denominations. 
 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or interest on this bond against any incorporator or any past, present or
future subscriber to the capital stock, stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either directly or through the Company or any predecessor or successor corporation, under any rule of
law, statute or constitution or by the enforcement of any assessment or otherwise, all such liability of incorporators, subscribers, stockholders, officers and directors being released by the holder or owner hereof by the acceptance of this bond and
being likewise waived and released by the terms of the Mortgage. 
 This bond shall not become obligatory until Citibank, N.A.,
the Trustee under the Mortgage, or its successor thereunder, shall have signed the form of certificate endorsed hereon.
