EXHIBIT A
ARTICLE FIFTEEN
Subordination

Section 15.01.  Securities Subordinated to Senior Debt.  With respect to Securities of any series as to which, pursuant to
Section 2.03(n), it has been established that this Article 15 applies (herein called the "Subordinated Securities"), the Company covenants and agrees, and each holder of Subordinated Securities, by his acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the indebtedness represented by the Subordinated Securities and the payment of the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on each and all of the Subordinated Securities are hereby expressly subordinate and junior to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness.  "Senior Indebtedness" means all indebtedness of the Company for the repayment of money borrowed (whether or not represented by bonds,
debentures, notes or other securities) other than the indebtedness evidenced by the Subordinated Securities and any
indebtedness subordinated to, or subordinated on parity with, the Subordinated Securities.  "Senior Indebtedness" does not include customer deposits or other amounts securing obligations of others to the Company.

Section 15.02.  Events of Subordination.  In the event (a) of any distribution of assets of the Company upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or otherwise, except a distribution in connection with a consolidation, merger or sale, transfer or lease of the  properties of the Company which complies with the requirements of Section 11.02, or (b) the principal of any Senior Indebtedness shall have been declared due and payable by reason of an event of default with respect thereto and such event of default shall not have been rescinded, then:

    (1) in the circumstance described in the foregoing clause (a) the holders of all Senior Indebtedness, and in the circumstance
described in the foregoing clause (b) the holders of all Senior Indebtedness outstanding at the time the principal of such Senior
Indebtedness shall have been so declared due and payable, shall first be entitled to receive payment of the full amount due
thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, or provision shall be made for such amount in money or money's
worth, before the holders of any of the Subordinated Securities are entitled to receive any payment on account of the principal
of, premium, if any, or interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Subordinated Securities;

Exhibit 4.2.15.2

-2-

   (2)  any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
securities (other than securities of the Company as reorganized or readjusted or securities of the Company or any other
corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in this Article with respect to the Subordinated  Securities, to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness, provided
that the rights of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness are not altered by such reorganization or readjustment), to which the holders of any of the Subordinated Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article shall be paid or delivered by the person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or
liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of such Senior Indebtedness held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution (or provision therefor) to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the holders of the indebtedness evidenced by the Subordinated Securities or to the Trustee under this Indenture; and

     (3) in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Company of any kind of character, whether in cash, property or securities (other than securities of the Company as reorganized or readjusted or
securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in this Article with respect to the Subordinated Securities, to the payment of
all Senior Indebtedness, provided that the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness are not altered by such reorganization or readjustment), shall be received by the Trustee or the holders of any of the Subordinated Securities before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, such payment or distribution shall be paid over to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably as aforesaid, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution (or provision therefor) to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

Exhibit 4.2.15.2

-3-

Section 15.03.  Subrogation.  Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the holders of the Subordinated Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distribution of
cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Subordinated Securities shall be paid in full, and, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of such Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of the Subordinated Securities, no such payment or distribution made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by virtue of this Article which otherwise would have been made to the holders of the Subordinated Securities shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company on account of such Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Article are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holders of the Subordinated Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

Section 15.04.  Obligation of Company Unconditional.  Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Subordinated Securities is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of the Subordinated Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the holders of the Subordinated Securities the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Subordinated Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the holders of the Subordinated Securities and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the holder of any Subordinated Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

     Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article, the Trustee and the holders of the
Subordinated Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which
any such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceeding affecting the affairs of the Company is pending or
upon a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the holders of the Subordinated Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of

Exhibit 4.2.15.2

-4-

the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount paid or
distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article.  In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to
participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Section, the Trustee may request such person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, as to the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the right of such Person under this Section, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.

Section 15.05.  Payments on Subordinated Securities Permitted.  Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture, or in any of the Subordinated Securities, shall affect the obligation of the Company to make, or prevent the Company from making, payments of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Subordinated Securities in accordance with the provision hereof and thereof, or shall prevent the Trustee or any paying agent of the Company from applying any moneys deposited with it hereunder to the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Subordinated Securities, in each case except as otherwise provided in this Article.

Section 15.06.  Effectuation of Subordination by Trustee.  Each holder of Subordinated Securities, by his acceptance thereof,
authorizes and directs the Trustee in his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article and appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

Section 15.07.  Knowledge of Trustee.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article or any other provisions of this
Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Trustee, or the taking of any other action by the Trustee (and shall not be liable for making
such payment or taking such action), unless and until a responsible officer of the Trustee having responsibility for the
administration of the trust established by this Indenture shall have received written notice thereof from the Company, any holder of Subordinated Securities, any paying agent of the Company or any holder or representative of any class of Senior Indebtedness, and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts 

Exhibit 4.2.15.2

-5-

exist; provided that, if prior to the third business day preceding the date upon which by the terms hereof any monies
become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of either the principal of or interest on any Subordinated Security), or the date of the execution of an instrument pursuant to Section 12.02 acknowledging satisfaction

and discharge of this Indenture, a responsible officer of the Trustee shall not have received with respect to such monies or to
such funds or obligations deposited pursuant to Section 12.02, the notice provided for in this Section 15.07, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such monies or such funds or obligations and apply the same to the purpose for which they were received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it on or after such date.

Section 15.08.  Trustee's Relation to Senior Indebtedness.  The Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this
Article with respect to any Senior Indebtedness at the time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in Section 7.12 or elsewhere in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.  Nothing in this Article shall apply to claims of or payments to the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.06.

     With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its
covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to
the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee.  The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior
Indebtedness, if it shall mistakenly pay over or deliver to holders of Subordinated Securities, the Company or any other
Person monies or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article or otherwise.

Section 15.09.  Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness Not Impaired.  No right of any present or future holder of any Senior
Indebtedness to enforce the subordination herein shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.Exhibit

If the Bonds are rated by a Rating Agency in its  highest  note or  commercial  paper  rating  category  or one of its two highest  long-term debt rating  categories,  each Component Issuer must (a) have outstanding  securities  rated  by a  Rating  Agency  in  its  highest  note  or commercial paper rating category or (b) not have outstanding notes or commercial paper rated by a Rating Agency but have outstanding securities rated by a Rating Agency in one of its two highest long-term debt rating categories.  If the Bonds are rated by a Rating Agency in a rating category that is lower than its highest note or  commercial  paper  rating  category or its two highest  long-term  debt rating  categories (and the Bonds are not rated in one of such categories by the other Rating Agency), each Component Issuer must (a) have outstanding securities rated by a Rating Agency in its note or commercial  paper rating  category which is the same or correlative,  in the Indexing  Agent's  judgment,  to the note or commercial  paper rating  category or the long-term debt rating  category of the Bonds or (b) have  outstanding  securities  rated by a Rating Agency in the same long-term debt rating  category as the Bonds are rated by that Rating Agency and not have any outstanding  notes or commercial paper rated by such Rating Agency.  The  Indexing  Agent may 

I-25

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

change the  Component  Issuers from time to time in its discretion,  subject to the foregoing requirements.  In addition, at the request  of the  Company and upon  delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Bond  Counsel that such  action will not  adversely  affect the  exclusion  of interest on the Bonds from gross income of the owners  thereof for federal  income tax purposes, the  Authority,  with the consent of the Company,  may designate a new method of setting  the Weekly Rate Index in the event any of the  above-described  methods are determined by the Authority to be unavailable,  impracticable or unrealistic in the market place.
“Weekly  Rate Period”  shall mean any period  during which the Bonds bear interest at a Weekly Rate; the first such period shall commence on the date of initial  issuance of the Bonds and shall extend  through the day  immediately preceding the earlier of (a) the effective date of a Change in the Interest Rate Mode or (b) the Stated Maturity.

There  is  hereby  created  and established  under this  Indenture one issue of revenue bonds of the  Authority, limited to $292,700,000 in aggregate  principal amount,  of “Facilities  Revenue Bonds, Series 1999A (Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. Project)”. In order to distinguish  between Bonds which are subject to different interest rate determination  methods and other features and to distinguish  the portion of the Bonds to be remarketed by any  particular  Remarketing  Agent,  the Bonds may be designated and redesignated  from time to time by the Authority in such a way as to identify one or more subseries of the Bonds. Such subseries may be designated as subseries A-1, subseries A-2, or subseries A-3, as the case may be, or may be further redesignated as subseries A-1-1, subseries A-2-1, or subseries A-3-1, as the case may be, and so forth.  Each Bond shall bear upon the face  thereof such designation  or  redesignation,  if any.  In the event  any  series of Bonds is designated as one or more subseries,  all references to a series of the Bonds in this Indenture  shall refer to each such subseries  unless the context  otherwise requires.  The Bonds, upon  original issuance,  shall be issued in three separate subseries  designated as “1999A-1” in the  principal  amount of $97,600,000  (the “Series 1999A-1  Bonds”),  “1999A-2” in the principal amount of $97,600,000 (the “Series  1999A-2  Bonds”) and “1999A-3” in the principal  amount of  $97,500,000 (the “Series 1999A-3 Bonds”).

2.    The Bonds shall be secured by the Trust Estate. The lien, pledge, charge and  assignment  of the Trust  Estate  created  hereby shall be valid and binding from the time of the  effectiveness  of this Indenture,  as set forth in Section 17.11,  and the Note Payments made under the Note and the  Participation Agreement shall be immediately subject thereto upon receipt by the Trustee.
3.    The Bonds are limited obligations of the Authority payable solely from  payments  to be  made  by  the  Company  pursuant  to  the  Note  and  the Participation  Agreement and the other  monies,  rights and  properties  pledged hereunder  including  the proceeds of the Support  Facility,  if any,  hereafter obtained with respect  thereto and secured by a pledge from the Authority to the Trustee of the  Participation  Agreement and the Note.  The Bonds shall not be a debt of the  State of New York,  and the  State of New York  shall not be liable thereon.
4.    The covenants and agreements  herein set forth to be performed by the Authority shall be for the benefit, security and protection of any Holder of the Bonds.
5.    Neither the Trustee nor any Holder of the Bonds shall be required to see that the monies  derived  from such Bonds are  applied to the  purpose or purposes for which such Bonds are issued.

If the Bonds are redesignated to identify one or more additional subseries,  the Bonds shall be numbered in accordance with their subseries designation. The Bonds shall mature on the Stated Maturity.
9.    The Bonds shall be  initially  issued in fully  registered  form, without coupons, and dated their date of first authentication and delivery.
10.    Upon any Change in the Interest Rate Mode to an Auction Rate for an Auction Rate Period, there shall be Outstanding an aggregate principal amount of not less  than  $20,000,000  of  Auction  Rate  Bonds  and in the  applicable denominations set forth in Section 2.02.7.

	the selection by the Securities  Depository or any Agent Members of any  beneficial  owners to  receive  payment  in the event of a partial  redemption of Bonds,  except for the Trustee's  obligations  under Section 5.12.

So long as the  certificates  for the Bonds of any  subseries  issued  under the Indenture are not issued  pursuant to subsection  (4) of this Section 2.03,  the Authority, the Company, the Trustee, the Auction Agent (if any), the Remarketing Agent and the Registrar and Paying Agent may treat the Securities Depository as, and deem the  Securities  Depository to be, the absolute owner of such series or subseries of Bonds for all purposes whatsoever, including without limitation:

	the payment of principal  and premium,  if any, and interest  on such series or subseries of the Bonds;

		
	(b)
	giving  notices of redemption  and other matters with respect to such series or subseries of the Bonds; and

functions as depository as set forth in this section,  or (C) upon any Change in the  Interest  Rate Mode to any  Adjustable  Rate  other than an Auction Rate.
(c)    Upon any Change in the  Interest  Rate Mode to an Auction  Rate, the  Registrar  and Paying Agent shall  register the Auction Rate Bonds in the name of the Securities  Depository or its nominee and on the effective date  of such  change  provide  the  Company  with a list of the  Existing Holders of the Auction Rate Bonds.          

4. If at any time the Securities  Depository  notifies the Authority and the  Company  that it is  unwilling  or unable  to  continue  as  Securities Depository with respect to the Bonds or if at any time the Securities Depository shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the Securities  Exchange Act or  other  applicable  statute  or  regulation  and a  successor  Securities Depository is not  appointed by the  Authority  with the consent of the Company, the Trustee,  the Auction Agent (if any) and the  Remarketing  Agent,  within 90 days after the Authority and the Company  receive notice or become aware of such condition,  as the case may be, this Section shall no longer be  applicable  and the  Authority  shall  execute and the Trustee  shall  authenticate  and deliver certificates  representing  the Bonds of such  series or  subseries  as provided below.  In addition,  the Authority may determine at any time, at the request of the Remarketing  Agent,  that the Bonds shall no longer be represented by global bonds and that the provisions of  subsections  (1) and (2) above shall no longer apply to such  series or  subseries  of Bonds.

The Trustee shall deliver such certificates  representing the Bonds of such  series or  subseries  to the  persons  in whose  names  such  Bonds are so registered on the Business Day immediately preceding the first day of an Auction Period (with respect to Auction Rate Bonds during any Auction Rate  Period),  or the  effective  date of a Change in the Interest  Rate Mode (with respect to any other Change in the Interest Rate Mode), as the case may be. 
5. The Authority and the Trustee are hereby authorized to enter into any  arrangements determined   necessary  or  desirable  with  any  Securities Depository  in order to  effectuate  this  Section and both of them shall act in accordance  with this  Indenture and any such  agreement.  Without  limiting the generality  of the  foregoing,  any such  arrangements  may alter the  manner of effecting  delivery of Bonds and the  transfer of funds for the payment of Bonds to the Securities Depository.

Section 2.04    Limitations  on Transfer.  So long as the  ownership of the Auction  Rate  Bonds  is  maintained  in  book-entry   form  by  the  Securities Depository,  a  beneficial  owner or an  Existing  Holder may sell,  transfer or otherwise  dispose of Auction  Rate Bonds only  pursuant  to a Bid or Sell Order placed in an Auction or to a Broker-Dealer,  provided,  however,  that (a) sale, transfer  or other  disposition  of Auction  Rate  Bonds  from a  customer  of a Broker-Dealer  who is listed on the records of that  Broker-Dealer as the holder of such Auction  Rate Bonds to that  Broker-Dealer  or another  customer of that Broker-Dealer  shall not be deemed to be a sale,  transfer

Section 3.01    Interest on  Bonds-General 
1.Interest  accruing on Bonds bearing  interest at a  Commercial  Paper Rate,  a Daily Rate,  a Weekly Rate, a Monthly Rate or a Semi-annual  Rate,  shall be computed on the basis of a 365 or 366-day year, as applicable,  for the number of days actually elapsed.  Interest accruing  on Bonds  bearing  interest  at a Term Rate or a Fixed  Rate  shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day  year,  consisting of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months. Interest accruing on Bonds bearing interest at an Auction Rate shall be  computed  on the basis of a  360-day  year for the  number of days  actually elapsed.  Bonds shall bear interest from the date of issuance thereof payable in arrears on each  Interest  Payment  Date.  The Bonds  issued upon  transfers  or exchanges  of Bonds shall bear  interest  from the  Interest  Payment  Date next preceding their date of authentication,  unless the date of authentication is an Interest  Payment  Date in which case such Bonds shall bear  interest  from such date,  or  unless  the date of  authentication  is after  the  Record  Date next preceding the next  succeeding  Interest  Payment Date, in which case such Bonds shall bear interest from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date.
2.The Bonds shall be initially issued as Weekly Rate Bonds during a Weekly Rate Period. Each of the Series of Bonds shall bear interest at 3.10% for the period from and including the date of issuance of the Bonds to and including the  following  Tuesday.  From and after any  Change in the  Interest  Rate Mode pursuant to Section 4.01 or 4.02, the Bonds with respect to which such change is effective  shall bear interest  determined in accordance  with the provisions of this Indenture  pertaining to the new Adjustable  Rate or the Fixed Rate, as the case may be. Bonds shall bear  interest  for each  Calculation  Period,  Auction Period or Fixed Rate  Period,  as the case may be, at the rate of  interest  per annum  for  such  Calculation  Period,  Auction  Period  or  Fixed  Rate  Period established in accordance with this Indenture. Interest shall be payable on each Interest  Payment  Date by check  mailed to the  registered  owner at his or her address as it appears on the registration books kept by the Registrar and Paying Agent  pursuant to the  Indenture  at the close of  business  on the  applicable Record  Date;  provided,  that  (i)  while  the  Securities  Depository  is  the registered  owner of the Bonds,  all payments of  principal of, premium,  if any, and  interest on the Bonds  shall be paid to the  Securities  Depository  or its nominee by wire  transfer,  (ii) prior to and including a Fixed Rate  Conversion Date, interest on the Bonds shall be payable to any registered owner of at least one million dollars  ($1,000,000) in aggregate principal amount of Bonds by wire transfer,  upon written  notice  received by the  Registrar  and Paying Agent at least five days prior to the applicable  Record Date, from such registered owner containing the wire transfer  address (which shall be in the continental  United States) to which such  registered  owner  wishes to have such wire  directed and (iii) during a Commercial  Paper Rate Period,  interest  shall be payable on the Bonds only upon  presentation and surrender  thereof to the Registrar and Paying Agent upon purchase  thereof  pursuant to Section 5.03 and if such  presentation and surrender is made by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) such payment shall be by wire transfer. If and to the extent that there shall be a default in the payment of the interest due on any Interest  Payment Date,  such interest shall cease to be payable 

III-1

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

to the person in whose  name each Bond of such  series  was  registered  on such applicable  Record Date and shall be payable,  when and if paid to the person in whose name each Bond of such  series is  registered  at the close of business on the record date fixed therefor by the Trustee, which shall be the fifth Business Day next preceding the date of the proposed  payment.  Except as provided above, payment of the principal of and premium, if any, on all Bonds shall be made upon the  presentation  and  surrender of such Bonds at the  principal  office of the Registrar  and  Paying  Agent as the same  shall  become  due and  payable.  The principal of and premium,  if any, and interest on the Bonds shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America.
3.Not less than one Business Day prior to each Computation Date and two Business  Days prior to a Fixed Rate  Conversion  Date,  the Indexing  Agent shall establish and provide to the  Remarketing  Agent the related rate index as set forth in the  definition of such rate index in Section 1.01;  provided that, for each Calculation Period during a Daily Rate Period, the Indexing Agent shall establish  and provide the related rate index to the  Remarketing  Agent on each Determination  Date;  and provided  further that,  for each  Calculation  Period during a Monthly Rate Period, the Indexing Agent shall establish and provide the related  rate index to the  Remarketing  Agent not later  than each  Computation Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Remarketing Agent, in its sole judgment,  shall determine on a Determination  Date that any Daily Rate Index Weekly Rate Index or any  Commercial  Paper Rate Index so  established  is sufficiently  non-representative of current market conditions that the Bonds may not be  remarketed at par if such rate is set at a rate not greater than 110% of the applicable rate index, the Remarketing  Agent may establish a new rate index on a  Determination  Date  in  accordance  with  the  procedures  and  standards described  in the  definition  of such rate index and for  purposes of such rate index so  established,  all references to Indexing Agent in this Indenture shall be deemed to refer to the  Remarketing  Agent.  On any date when any Weekly Rate Index or any Commercial Paper Rate Index is established by the Remarketing Agent pursuant to this  paragraph,  such rate index shall have the respective  meaning set forth in  Section  1.01  (except  as  otherwise  provided  in the  preceding sentence);  provided that for any Commercial  Paper Rate Index,  the Remarketing Agent shall select  securities  (whether or not actually  issued)  having a term approximately equal to the applicable  Commercial Paper Rate Period or which are subject to optional  or  mandatory  tender by the owner  thereof at the end of a term  approximately  equal to (or as close thereto as is practicably  available) the applicable Commercial Paper Rate Period.

4.By 12:00 noon (New York City time) on each  Determination Date or by 3:00 p.m.  (New York City time) on each Auction Date, as the case may be, the Remarketing Agent or the Auction Agent, as the case may be, shall make available to the Authority,  the Trustee,  the Registrar and Paying Agent, any issuer of a Support  Facility,  the Company,  any Broker-Dealer or any registered owner of a Bond the interest rate or rates determined on such Determination Date or Auction Date. 

5.If for any  reason  on any  Determination  Date  (A) any  rate of interest for a Calculation  Period is not determined by the  Remarketing  Agent, (B) no  Remarketing  Agent  is  serving  as such  hereunder  or (C) the  rate so determined is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a final judgment of a court of competent  jurisdiction,  (i) during any Daily Rate Period, the interest rate for the next  succeeding  Calculation  Period shall be the last interest rate in effect, or, if a 

III-2

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

Daily Rate is not determined by the Remarketing Agent hereunder for five or more  consecutive  Business  Days on the  next  and each  succeeding Determination Date, the Daily Rate shall be a rate per annum equal to 80% of the latest  30-day dealer  taxable  commercial  paper rate  published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on or immediately before such Determination  Date, (ii) during  any  Weekly  Rate  Period,  the  interest  rate for the next  succeeding Calculation  Period shall be the last interest  rate in effect,  or, if a Weekly Rate is not  determined  by the  Remarketing  Agent for two or more  consecutive Calculation  Periods, the Weekly Rate shall be equal to 85% of the latest 30-day dealer taxable  commercial  paper rate published by the Federal  Reserve Bank of New York on or before the day next  preceding  such  Determination  Date,  (iii) during any Monthly Rate, Semi-annual Rate or Term Rate Period, the interest rate per annum for the next  succeeding  Calculation  Period shall be equal to 85% of the rate  listed in the table most  recently  circulated  by the  United  States Treasury  Department known as “Table  [applicable dates shown on the most recent Table],  Maximum Interest Rate Payable on United States Treasury Certificates of Indebtedness,  Notes and Bonds-State and Local Government  Series Subscribed for During  Period  [applicable  dates  shown  on the  most  recent  Table]”  or any substantially   equivalent  table  circulated  by  the  United  States  Treasury Department for the maturity most closely  approximating the Calculation  Period, and  (iv)  during  any  Commercial  Paper  Rate  Period,   the  next  succeeding Calculation  Period shall be a  Calculation  Period  which shall  consist of the period from and including the prior  Interest  Payment Date to but excluding the first Business Day of the following calendar month and the Commercial Paper Rate shall be equal to 85% of the interest  rate  applicable  to 90-day United States Treasury Bills determined on the basis of the average per annum discount rate at which  such  90-day  Treasury  Bills  shall  have been  sold at the most  recent Treasury auction within the 30 days next preceding such Calculation  Period,  or if there shall have been no such auction  within the 30 days next preceding such Calculation   Period,  the  Commercial  Paper  Rate shall be equal to the rate of interest  borne by such Bond during the next  preceding  Calculation  Period for such Bond.  The rate of interest or Calculation  Period and related  Commercial Paper  Rate  shall  be  established  pursuant  to this  subsection  5 until  the Remarketing Agent again determines the rates of interest or Calculation  Periods and  related  Commercial  Paper Rates in  accordance  with this  Indenture.  The Trustee shall,  upon the direction of the Company,  select any person  otherwise meeting the qualifications of Section 11.14 to obtain, calculate and prepare any of the information required by this subsection 5.
6.The  determination  of any rate of  interest  by the  Remarketing Agent in  accordance  with this  Indenture or by the Auction Agent in accordance with  the  Auction   Procedures   applicable  to  Auction  Rate  Bonds,  or  the establishment of Calculation Periods or Auction Periods by the Remarketing Agent as  provided  in this  Indenture  shall  be conclusive  and  binding  upon  the Authority,  the Company,  the  Trustee,  the  Registrar  and Paying  Agent,  the Remarketing  Agent,  the Auction Agent,  any issuer of a Support  Facility,  all Broker-Dealers and the registered or beneficial owners of the Bonds.  Failure of the Remarketing Agent, the Trustee,  the Registrar and Paying Agent, the Auction Agent or the Securities Depository or any Securities  Depository  participant to give any of the notices  described  in this  Indenture,  or any defect  therein, shall  not  affect  the  interest  rate to be borne by any of the  Bonds nor the applicable Calculation Period or Auction Period nor in any way change the rights of the  registered  owners of the Bonds to tender their Bonds for purchase or to have them redeemed in accordance with this Indenture.

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

7.No  transfer or exchange of Bonds shall be required to be made by the  Registrar  and Paying  Agent after a Record Date until the next  succeeding Interest Payment Date.

8.Except as otherwise  provided in this  subsection  8, the Trustee shall  calculate  and notify  the  Registrar  and Paying  Agent of the amount of interest due and payable on each  Interest  Payment Date or date on which a Bond is subject to purchase by 10:00 a.m. on the   Business  Day next  preceding  such Interest Payment Date or date set for purchase,  as the case may be, unless such date is a date on which  the  interest  rate is  determined,  in which  case the amount of interest  due and payable  shall be  calculated  by 12:15 p.m. on such date. In preparing  such  calculation  the Trustee may rely on  calculations  or other services provided by the Auction Agent, the Remarketing Agent, the Company or any person or persons  selected  by the Trustee in its  discretion.  During a Commercial  Paper Rate Period,  the Remarketing  Agent shall notify the Trustee, the Registrar and Paying Agent and the Company of the amount of interest due and  payable on each  Interest  Payment  Date by 10:00 a.m. on the  Business Day next preceding such Interest Payment Date. During an Auction Rate Period, the Auction Agent shall notify the Trustee and the Registrar and Paying Agent at least seven days prior to each  Interest  Payment Date of the Auction Rate and the aggregate amount of interest payable on such Interest Payment Date.             

9.Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  in no event shall the interest  rate borne by any Bond exceed the maximum rate  allowable by applicable law.

Section 3.02    Commercial  Paper Rate. 
1. During any Commercial  Paper Rate Period,  at or prior to 12:00  noon (New York City  time) on each  Determination Date, the  Remarketing  Agent shall  establish  Calculation  Periods and related Commercial  Paper Rates.  In determining  Calculation  Periods,  the Remarketing Agent shall take the  following  factors into account:  (i) existing  short-term taxable and tax-exempt  market rates and indices of such short-term  rates, (ii) the existing  market  supply and demand for  short-term  tax-exempt  securities, (iii) existing yield curves for short-term and long-term  tax-exempt  securities or  obligations  having a credit rating that is  comparable  to the Bonds,  (iv) general economic  conditions,  (v) economic and financial factors present in the securities  industry  that may affect or that may be  relevant  to the Bonds and  (vi) any  information  available  to the  Remarketing  Agent  pertaining  to the Company  regarding  any events or  anticipated  events which could have a direct impact on the  marketability  of or interest rates on the Bonds. The Remarketing Agent shall select the Calculation  Periods and the applicable  Commercial Paper Rates that,  together with all other Calculation  Periods and related Commercial Paper Rates, in the sole judgment of the Remarketing  Agent,  will result in the lowest  overall  borrowing  cost  on the  Bonds  or are  otherwise  in the  best financial  interests of the Company,  as  determined  in  consultation  with the Company. Any Calculation Period established  hereunder may not extend beyond the second Business Day next preceding the expiration  date of the Support  Facility or the day prior to the Stated Maturity.
2.The  Authority,  at the  request of the  Company,  may place such limitations upon the establishment of Calculation Periods pursuant to subsection 1 hereof as may be set forth in a written  direction from the  Authority,  which direction  must be received by the  Trustee and the  Remarketing  Agent prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the day prior to any Determination Date to be effective  on such date,  but only if the  Trustee  receives  an Opinion of 

III-4

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

Bond Counsel to the effect  that such  action is  authorized  by this  Indenture,  is permitted  under the Act and will not have an adverse effect on the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes.
Section 3.03    Auction Rate Period - Auction Rate: Auction Period - General 1. During any Auction Rate Period, the Auction Rate Bonds shall bear interest at the Auction Rate  determined as set forth in this Section 3.03 and Sections 3.04 through 3.10. The Auction Rate for any initial Auction Period  immediately after any  Change in the  Interest  Rate Mode to an Auction  Rate for an Auction  Rate Period,  shall be the rate of interest per annum determined and certified to the Trustee  (with a copy to the  Authority,  the Registrar and Paying Agent and the Company) by the Remarketing Agent on a date not later than the effective date of such Change in the Interest Rate Mode as the minimum rate of interest  which, in the opinion of the  Remarketing  Agent,  would be  necessary  as of such date to market Auction Rate Bonds in a secondary market  transaction at a price equal to the principal amount thereof;  provided that such interest rate shall not exceed 110% of the sum of the Commercial  Paper Index and .50% per annum. For any other Auction  Period,  the Auction  Rate shall be the rate of interest per annum that results from  implementation of the Auction  Procedures.  If on any Auction Date the Auction Agent shall fail to take any action necessary to determine,  or take any action which  effectively  prevents the determination of, a rate of interest pursuant to the Auction  Procedures,  the Auction  Rate for the next  succeeding Auction Period shall equal the Maximum Auction Rate as provided in clause (i) of the  definition  thereof on and as of such Auction  Date.  Determination  of the Auction Rate pursuant to the Auction Procedures shall be suspended upon a Change in the  Interest  Rate  Mode,  the  occurrence  of a Failure  to  Deposit or the occurrence of an Event of Default.  Upon the  occurrence of a Failure to Deposit on any Auction Date, no Auction will be held,  all Submitted  Bids and Submitted Sell Orders shall be rejected,  the existence of Sufficient  Clearing Bids shall be of no effect and the  Auction  Rate for the next  succeeding  Auction  Period shall equal the Maximum Auction Rate on and as of such Auction Date. The Auction Rate  for  any  Auction  Period  or  remaining  portion  thereof  following  the occurrence  of an  Event of  Default  shall  be  equal  to the  Overdue  Rate as determined on and as of the immediately preceding Auction Date. The Overdue Rate shall be redetermined by the Remarketing Agent on each Auction Date.

2.    Auction  Periods may be  established  pursuant to Section 3.04 at any time unless a Failure to Deposit or an Event of Default has occurred and has not been cured or waived. Each Auction Period shall be a Standard Auction Period unless a different  Auction Period is  established  pursuant to Section 3.04 and each Auction Period which  immediately  succeeds a   non-Standard  Auction Period shall  be a  Standard  Auction  Period  unless a  different  Auction  Period  is established pursuant to Section 3.04.

Section 3.04    Auction Rate Period - Auction Rate Bonds:  Change of Auction Period by  Authority  1.  During an Auction  Rate Period the  Authority,  at the request of the Company,  may change the length of a single Auction Period or the Standard  Auction Period by means of a written notice delivered at least 10 days prior  to  the  Auction  Date  for  such  Auction  Period  to the  Trustee,  the Remarketing Agent, the Auction Agent, the Company and the Securities  Depository in substantially  the form furnished to the Trustee and the Auction Agent at the time of a Change in the  Interest  Rate Mode to an  Auction  Rate.  Any Auction Period or Standard 

III-5

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

Auction Period  established by the Authority pursuant to this Section 3.04 may not exceed 365 days in duration. If such Auction Period will be of less than 28 days,  such notice shall be effective  only if it is accompanied by a written  statement of the  Registrar  and Paying  Agent,  the Trustee,  the Remarketing Agent, the Auction Agent and the Securities Depository to the effect that  they are  capable  of  performing  their  duties  hereunder  and under the Remarketing  Agreement  and the Auction  Agency  Agreement  with respect to such Auction Period.  If such notice specifies a change in the length of the Standard Auction Period,  such notice shall be effective only if it is accompanied by the written  consent  of the  Remarketing  Agent to such  change.  The  length of an Auction  Period or the Standard  Auction  Period may not be changed  pursuant to  this Section 3.04 unless  Sufficient  Clearing  Bids existed at both the Auction immediately  preceding  the date the  notice  of such  change  was given and the Auction  immediately preceding such changed Auction Period. 
2.    The change in length of an Auction Period or the Standard Auction Period shall take effect only if (A) the Trustee and the Auction Agent  receive, by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the Auction Date for such Auction Period, a certificate from the Company,  on behalf of the  Authority,  by  telecopy  or  similar  means in  substantially  the form furnished  to the Trustee  and the Auction  Agent at the time of a Change in the Interest  Rate Mode to an Auction  Rate  authorizing  the change in the  Auction Period  or the  Standard  Auction  Period,  which  shall  be  specified  in such certificate,  and  confirming  that Bond  Counsel  expects to be able to give an Opinion of Bond Counsel on the first day of such Auction Period, (B) the Trustee shall not have delivered to the Auction Agent by 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Auction Date for such Auction Period notice that a Failure to Deposit has occurred,  (C) Sufficient Clearing Bids exist at the Auction on the Auction Date for such Auction  Period,  and (D) the Trustee and the Auction  Agent receive by 9:30 a.m.  (New York City  time) on the  first day of such  Auction  Period,  an opinion of Bond  Counsel to the effect that the change in the Auction  Period or the Standard Auction Period is authorized by this Indenture,  is permitted under the Act and will not have an adverse effect on the exclusion of interest on such Bonds from gross  income for  federal  income  tax  purposes.  If the  condition  referred to in (A) above is not met,  the Auction  Rate for the next  succeeding Auction  Period shall be determined  pursuant to the Auction  Procedures and the next succeeding Auction Period shall be a Standard Auction Period. If any of the conditions referred to in (B), (C) or (D) above is not met, the Auction Rate for the next  succeeding  Auction  Period  shall equal the Maximum  Auction  Rate as determined as of such Auction Date.

Section 3.05    Auction Rate Period - Auction Rate Bonds:  Change of Auction Date by Remarketing Agent.  During an Auction Rate Period the Remarketing Agent, with the written  consent of the Company,  may change,  in order to conform with then-current   market  practice  with  respect  to  similar   securities  or  to accommodate economic and financial factors that may affect or be relevant to the day of the week  constituting  an Auction Date,  the Auction Date for all future Auction  Periods to a different day, so long as the first such Auction Date will be a Business Day in the calendar week in which the next succeeding Auction Date is then  scheduled  to occur.  If a change in an Auction Date is  undertaken  in conjunction  with a change  in an  Auction  Period  and the  conditions  for the establishment of such change in Auction Period are not met, the Auction Date may be, and the next succeeding Auction Period may be 

III-6

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

adjusted to end on, a Business Day in the calendar  week in which such Auction Date was  scheduled to occur and such  Auction  Period  was  scheduled  to end to  accommodate  the change in the Auction  Date.  The  Remarketing  Agent  shall  deliver a written  notice of its determination  to change an Auction Date by means of a written notice  delivered at least 10 days prior to the Auction Date  immediately  preceding  such Auction Date to the  Authority,  the  Trustee,  the Auction  Agent,  the Company and the Securities Depository which shall state (i) the determination of the Remarketing Agent to change the Auction  Date,  (ii) the new Auction Date and (iii) the date on which such  Auction  Date shall be  changed.  If as a result of any  proposed change in the  Auction  Date any  Auction  Period  would be less than 28 days in duration,  such notice shall be effective only if it is accompanied by a written statement of the Auction Agent, the Registrar and Paying Agent, the Trustee, the Remarketing  Agent and the  Securities  Depository  to the effect  that they are capable of performing their duties hereunder and under the Remarketing Agreement and Auction Agency Agreement with respect to any such Auction  period.

Section 3.07    Auction  Rate Period - Auction  Rate Bonds:  Submission  of Orders by  Broker-Dealers  to Auction  Agent.  (a) During an Auction Rate Period each  Broker-Dealer  shall  submit in writing to the Auction  Agent prior to the Submission   Deadline  on  each  Auction  Date,  all  Orders  obtained  by  such Broker-Dealer, designating itself (unless otherwise permitted by the Company) as an  Existing  Holder in respect of the  principal  amount of Auction  Rate Bonds subject to Orders  submitted or deemed  submitted to it by Potential  Beneficial Owners, and shall specify with respect to each such Order:

(i)the name of the Bidder  placing  such Order  (which shall be the Broker-Dealer unless otherwise permitted by the Company);

(ii)the  aggregate  principal  amount of Auction Rate Bonds that are subject to such Order;

(iii)to the extent that such Bidder is an Existing Holder:

(A)the  principal  amount  of  Auction  Rate  Bonds,  if any, subject to any Hold Order placed by such Existing Holder;

(B)the  principal  amount  of  Auction  Rate  Bonds,  if any, subject  to any Bid  placed  by such Existing  Holder  and the rate specified in such Bid; and

(c)If an Order or Orders  covering  all  Outstanding  Auction  Rate Bonds held by an Existing  Holder is not submitted to the Auction Agent prior to the Submission Deadline,  the Auction Agent shall deem a Hold Order to have been submitted on behalf of such Existing  Holder  covering the  principal  amount of Outstanding  Auction Rate Bonds held by such Existing  Holder and not subject to Orders submitted to the Auction Agent.
(d)Neither the Authority,  the Company, the Trustee nor the Auction Agent shall be responsible for any failure of a Broker-Dealer to submit an Order to the  Auction  Agent 

III-9

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

on  behalf  of any  Existing  Holder,  Beneficial  Owner, Potential Holder or Potential Beneficial Owner.
(e)If any Existing Holder submits  through a  Broker-Dealer  to the Auction  Agent  one or more  Orders  covering  in the  aggregate  more  than the  principal amount of Auction Rate Bonds held by such Existing Holder, such Orders shall be considered valid as follows and in the following order of priority:

i.all Hold Orders shall be considered  valid, but only up to and  including  the  principal  amount of Auction  Rate Bonds held by such Existing  Holder,  and, if the aggregate  principal amount of Auction Rate Bonds subject to such Hold Orders exceeds the aggregate  principal  amount       of  Outstanding  Auction  Rate Bonds  held by such  Existing  Holder,  the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Bonds subject to each such Hold Order shall be reduced pro rata to cover the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Bonds held by such Existing Holder;

ii.(A)    any Bid shall be considered valid up to and including the excess of the principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Bonds held by such Existing Holder over the aggregate  principal amount of Auction  Rate  Bonds  subject  to any  Hold  Orders  referred  to in paragraph (i) above;

(B)subject to clause  (A) above,  if more than one Bid with the same rate is  submitted  on  behalf of such  Existing Holder  and the  aggregate  principal  amount  of  Outstanding Auction  Rate Bonds  subject to such Bids is greater than such excess,  such  Bids  shall  be  considered  valid  up  to  and including the amount of such excess, and, the principal amount of Auction  Rate Bonds  subject to each Bid with the same rate shall be  reduced  pro rata to cover the  principal  amount of  Auction Rate Bonds equal to such excess;

(C)subject to clauses  (A) and (B) above,  if more than one Bid with  different  rates is  submitted on behalf of such Existing  Holder,  such Bids shall be considered  valid in the ascending  order of their  respective  rates until the highest rate is reached at which such  excess  exists and then at such rate up to and including the amount of such excess; and

(D)in any such event, the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Bonds, if any, subject to any portion of Bids not valid under this  paragraph  (ii) shall be treated as the  subject  of a Bid by a  Potential  Holder  at the rate therein specified; and

iii.all Sell  Orders  shall be  considered  valid up to and including the excess of the principal amount of Outstanding  Auction Rate Bonds held by such Existing Holder over the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Bonds  subject to valid Hold Orders  referred to in paragraph (i) of this  subsection  (e) and valid Bids referred to in paragraph (ii) of this subsection (e).

III-10

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

(f)If more than one Bid for  Auction  Rate  Bonds is  submitted  on behalf of any Potential  Holder,  each Bid submitted shall be a separate Bid for Auction Rate Bonds with the rate and principal amount therein specified.

(g)Any Bid or Sell Order  submitted by an Existing  Holder covering an aggregate  principal  amount of Auction Rate Bonds not equal to $50,000 or an integral  multiple  thereof  shall be rejected and shall be deemed a Hold Order. Any Bid submitted by a Potential  Holder covering an aggregate  principal amount of Auction Rate Bonds not equal to $50,000 or an integral multiple thereof shall be rejected.

(h)Any Bid  submitted by an Existing  Holder or a Beneficial  Owner specifying  a rate lower than the All Hold Rate,  if any,  shall be treated as a Bid  specifying the All Hold Rate, if any, and will not be accepted if submitted by a Potential Beneficial Owner or a Potential Holder.

Section 3.08    Auction Rate Period - Auction Rate Bonds:  Determination  of Sufficient  Clearing Bids,  Winning Bid Rate and Auction Rate. (a) During an Auction Rate Period not earlier than the  Submission Deadline on each Auction Date, the Auction Agent shall assemble all valid Orders submitted or deemed  submitted to it by the  Broker-Dealers  (each such Order as submitted or deemed submitted by a Broker-Dealer  being hereinafter  referred to as a "Submitted  Hold Order," a "Submitted  Bid" or a "Submitted Sell Order," as the case may be, or as a "Submitted Order") and shall determine:

(i)the excess of the total  principal  amount of  Outstanding Auction  Rate  Bonds  over  the   aggregate   principal   amount  of Outstanding  Auction  Rate Bonds  subject to  Submitted  Hold Orders (such excess being hereinafter referred to as the "Available Auction Rate Bonds"); and

(ii)from the Submitted Orders whether the aggregate principal amount of  Outstanding  Auction Rate Bonds subject to Submitted Bids by Potential Holders  specifying one or more rates equal to or lower than the Maximum Auction Rate exceeds or is equal to the sum of:

(A)the  aggregate   principal  amount  of  Outstanding Auction  Rate Bonds  subject  to  Submitted  Bids by  Existing Holders  specifying  one or more rates higher than the Maximum  Auction Rate; and 

(B)the  aggregate   principal  amount  of  Outstanding Auction Rate Bonds subject to Submitted Sell Orders 

(in the event of such excess or such  equality  (other than  because the sum of the  principal  amounts of Auction  Rate Bonds in clauses (A) and (B) above is zero  because  all of the Outstanding  Auction Rate Bonds are subject to Submitted  Hold  Orders),  such  Submitted Bids by Potential  Holders are hereinafter  referred to collectively as "Sufficient Clearing Bids"); and

III-11

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

(iii)if  Sufficient  Clearing  Bids  exist,  the lowest  rate specified in the Submitted Bids (the "Winning Bid Rate") which if: 

                       (A)(I)  each   Submitted  Bid  from   Existing   Holders specifying  such lowest rate and (II) all other Submitted Bids from Existing  Holders  specifying  lower rates were rejected, thus entitling  such Existing  Holders to continue to hold the principal amount of Auction Rate Bonds that are the subject of such Submitted Bids; and
                        (B)(I)  each  Submitted  Bid  from   Potential   Holders specifying  such lowest rate and (II) all other Submitted Bids from Potential  Holders  specifying lower rates were accepted, would result in such Existing Holders  described in clause (A) above  continuing  to hold an  aggregate  principal  amount of Outstanding  Auction  Rate  Bonds  which,  when  added  to the aggregate  principal amount of Outstanding  Auction Rate Bonds to be purchased by such Potential  Holders described in clause (B) above,  would  equal not less than the  Available  Auction Rate Bonds.
(b)Promptly  after the Auction  Agent has made the  determinations pursuant to subsection  (a) of this Section 3.08,  the Auction  Agent,  by telecopy  confirmed  in writing,  shall advise the Company and the Trustee and the  Broker-Dealers  of the Maximum  Auction  Rate and the  components      thereof on the Auction Date and, based on such determinations, the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Auction Period as follows:

(i)if Sufficient  Clearing  Bids exist,  the Auction Rate for the next  succeeding  Auction Period  therefor shall be equal to the Winning Bid Rate so determined;

(ii)if  Sufficient  Clearing  Bids do not exist  (other  than because all of the Outstanding Auction Rate Bonds are the subject of Submitted  Hold  Orders),  the Auction Rate for the next  succeeding Auction Period  therefor shall be equal to the Maximum Auction Rate; and

(iii)if  all  of the  Auction  Rate  Bonds  are  subject  to Submitted  Hold  Orders,  the Auction  Rate for the next  succeeding Auction Period therefor shall be equal to the All Hold Rate.

Section 3.09    Auction  Rate Period - Auction Rate Bonds:  Acceptance  and Rejection of Submitted  Bids and Submitted Sell Orders and Allocation of Auction Rate Bonds. During an Auction Rate Period Existing Holders shall continue to hold the principal  amounts of Auction  Rate Bonds  that are  subject to   Submitted  Hold Orders, and, based on the determinations made pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 3.09,  the Submitted Bids and Submitted Sell Orders shall be accepted or rejected,  and the Auction  Agent shall take such other actions as are set forth below: 

III-12

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

		
	(a)
	If  Sufficient  Clearing Bids exist,  all Submitted  Sell Orders shall be accepted and, subject to the provisions of paragraphs (e) and (f) of this  Section  3.09,  Submitted  Bids shall be  accepted or rejected as follows in the following  order of priority and all other  Submitted  Bids shall be rejected:

		
	(i)
	Existing Holders'  Submitted Bids specifying any rate that is  higher  than the  Winning  Bid  Rate  shall  be  accepted,  thus requiring each such Existing Holder to sell the aggregate  principal amount of Auction Rate Bonds subject to such Submitted Bids;

		
	(ii)
	Existing Holders' Submitted Bids specifying any rate that is lower than the Winning Bid Rate shall be rejected, thus entitling each  such  Existing  Holder  to  continue  to  hold  the  aggregate principal  amount of Auction  Rate Bonds  subject to such  Submitted Bids; 

		
	(iii)
	Potential  Holders'  Submitted Bids specifying any rate that is lower  than the  Winning  Bid Rate shall be  accepted,  thus requiring  each such  Potential  Holder to  purchase  the  aggregate principal  amount of Auction  Rate Bonds  subject to such  Submitted Bids; 

		
	(iv)
	each Existing  Holder's  Submitted Bid  specifying a rate that is  equal to the  Winning  Bid Rate  shall  be  rejected,  thus entitling  such  Existing  Holder to continue to hold the  aggregate principal  amount of Auction  Rate Bonds  subject to such  Submitted Bid, unless the aggregate  principal  amount of Outstanding  Auction  Rate Bonds subject to all such  Submitted Bids shall be greater than the principal amount of Auction Rate Bonds (the “remaining principal amount”)  equal to the excess of  Available  Auction Rate Bonds over the aggregate  principal amount of the Auction Rate Bonds subject to Submitted  Bids  described  in  paragraphs  (ii)  and  (iii) of this subsection  (a), in which event such  Submitted Bid of such Existing Holder shall be rejected in part, and such Existing  Holder shall be entitled to continue to hold the  principal  amount of Auction  Rate Bonds subject to such  Submitted Bid, but only in an amount equal to the principal  amount of Auction Rate Bonds  obtained by multiplying the remaining principal amount by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the  principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Bonds held by  such  Existing  Holder  subject  to such  Submitted  Bid and the denominator  of which shall be the sum of the  principal  amounts of Auction Rate Bonds subject to such  Submitted  Bids made by all such Existing  Holders  that  specified  a rate equal to the  Winning Bid Rate; and

		
	(v)
	each  Potential  Holder's  Submitted Bid specifying a rate that is equal to the Winning Bid Rate shall be accepted  but only in an amount  equal to the  principal  amount  of  Auction  Rate  Bonds obtained  by  multiplying  the excess of the  Outstanding  Available Auction Rate Bonds over the  aggregate  principal  amount of Auction Rate Bonds subject to Submitted Bids  described in paragraphs  (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this subsection (a) by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the

aggregate  principal amount of Auction Rate Bonds subject  to such  Submitted  Bid of such  Potential  Holder  and the denominator  of which  shall be the sum of the  principal  amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Bonds subject to Submitted Bids made by all such  Potential  Holders that  specified a rate equal to the Winning Bid Rate.
(b)If Sufficient Clearing Bids do not exist (other than because all of the  Outstanding  Auction  Rate  Bonds are  subject to  Submitted  Hold Orders), subject to the provisions of subsection (e) of this Section 3.09, Submitted Orders shall be accepted or rejected as follows in the following order of priority and all other Submitted Bids shall be rejected:

i.Existing Holders'  Submitted Bids specifying any rate that is  equal  to or  lower  than  the  Maximum  Auction  Rate  shall be rejected,  thus entitling  each such Existing  Holder to continue to hold the aggregate principal amount of Auction Rate Bonds subject to such Submitted Bids;

ii.Potential  Holders'  Submitted  Bids  specifying any rate that is equal to or lower  than the  Maximum  Auction  Rate shall be accepted,  thus requiring each such Potential Holder to purchase the aggregate  principal  amount of Auction  Rate Bonds  subject to such Submitted Bids; and 

iii.each Existing Holder's Submitted Bid specifying any rate that is higher than the Maximum  Auction Rate and the Submitted Sell Order of each Existing Holder shall be accepted, thus entitling each Existing  Holder that  submitted any such Submitted Bid or Submitted Sell Order to sell the Auction Rate Bonds ubject to such  Submitted Bid or  Submitted  Sell  Order,  but in both cases only in an amount equal to the  aggregate  principal  amount  of  Auction  Rate  Bonds            obtained by multiplying  the aggregate  principal  amount of Auction Rate Bonds subject to Submitted  Bids described in paragraph (ii) of this  subsection (b) by a fraction,  the numerator of which shall be the aggregate  principal  amount of  Outstanding  Auction Rate Bonds held by such  Existing  Holder  subject  to  such  Submitted  Bid or submitted  Sell  Order  and the  denominator  of which  shall be the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Auction Rate Bonds subject to all such Submitted Bids and Submitted Sell Orders.

(c)If  all  Outstanding  Auction  Rate  Bonds  are  subject  to Submitted Hold Orders, all Submitted Bids shall be rejected.

(d)If (i) the Auction Agent shall fail to take any action necessary to  determine,   or  take  any  action  which  effectively   prevents  the determination  of, an interest rate pursuant to the Auction  Procedures or (ii) the  conditions set forth in subsection 2 of Section 3.04 to effect a change in the Auction Period are not met, all Submitted Bids and Submitted Sell Orders shall be rejected and the  existence  of  Sufficient  Clearing Bids shall be of no effect.

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

(e)If, as a result of the procedures described in subsection (a) or (b) of this  Section  3.09,  any  Existing  Holder  would be  entitled  or required to sell, or any Potential Holder would be required to purchase, a principal  amount of Auction Rate Bonds that is not equal to $50,000 or an integral multiple thereof,  the Auction Agent shall, in such manner as, in its sole discretion,  it shall  determine,  round up or down the principal      amount of such  Auction Rate Bonds to be purchased or sold by any Existing Holder or Potential  Holder so that the principal amount purchased or sold by each Existing  Holder or Potential  Holder shall be equal to $50,000 or an integral multiple thereof. 

(f)If, as a result of the procedures described in subsection (a) of this Section 3.09,  any Potential  Holder would be entitled or required to purchase less than $50,000 in aggregate  principal  amount of Auction Rate Bonds, the Auction Agent shall, in such manner as, in its sole discretion, it shall  determine,  allocate  Auction  Rate  Bonds  for  purchase  among Potential  Holders so that only Auction Rate Bonds in principal amounts of $50,000 or an integral  multiple  thereof are  purchased by any  Potential Holder,  even if such allocation  results in one or more of such Potential Holders not purchasing any Auction Rate Bonds.

(g)Based on the results of each  Auction,  the Auction  Agent shall determine  the  aggregate  principal  amounts of Auction  Rate Bonds to be purchased and the aggregate  principal amounts of Auction Rate Bonds to be sold by Potential  Holders and Existing  Holders and, with respect to each  Potential  Holder and Existing  Holder,  to the extent that such aggregate principal  amount  of  Auction  Rate  Bonds to be sold  differs  from such aggregate  principal  amount  of  Auction  Rate  Bonds  to  be  purchased,   determine to which other  Potential  Holder(s) or Existing  Holder(s) they shall  deliver,  or from  which  other  Potential  Holder(s)  or  Existing Holder(s) they shall receive, as the case may be, Auction Rate Bonds. 

(h)None of the Authority,  the Company or any Affiliate thereof may submit an Order in any Auction  except as set forth in the next  sentence. Any Broker-Dealer that is an Affiliate of the Company may submit Orders in an Auction  but only if such  Orders are not for its own  account,  except that if such affiliated Broker-Dealer holds Auction Rate Bonds for its own account, it must submit a Sell Order on the next Auction Date with respect to such Auction Rate Bonds.

Section 3.10    Auction  Rate Period - Auction  Rate Bonds:  Adjustment  in Percentage.  1. During an Auction Rate Period the  Remarketing  Agent may adjust the  percentage  used  in  determining  the All  Hold  Rate  and the  Applicable Percentages  used in determining the Maximum Auction Rate if any such adjustment is necessary, in the judgment of the Remarketing Agent, to reflect any Change of Preference  Law such that the All Hold Rate and Maximum  Auction Rate shall have substantially  equal market  values  before and after such Change of  Preference Law.  In making  any such  adjustment,  the  Remarketing  Agent  shall  take the following  factors,  as in  existence  both  before  and  after  such  Change of Preference Law, into account: (i) short-term taxable and tax-exempt market rates and  indices of such  short-term  rates,  (ii) the market  supply and demand for short-term  tax-exempt  securities,   (iii)  yield  curves  for  short-term  

III-15

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

and long-term  tax-exempt  securities or obligations  having a credit rating that is comparable to the Bonds,  (iv) general economic  conditions and (v) economic and financial factors present in the securities industry that may affect or that may be relevant to the Bonds.
2.The  Remarketing  Agent shall  communicate its  determination  to adjust the percentage  used in determining  the All Hold Rate and the Applicable Percentages  used in determining the Maximum Auction Rate pursuant to subsection 1 hereof by means of a written notice  delivered at least five days prior to the Auction Date on which the Remarketing  Agent desires to effect the change to the Authority,  the Trustee,  the Auction Agent and the Company in substantially the form attached to the Auction Agency Agreement.  Such notice is required to state the  determination  of the  Remarketing  Agent to change such percentage and the date such  adjustment is proposed to take effect (which date shall be an Auction Date).  Upon  receiving  approval of the Company  (which  approval  shall not be unreasonably  withheld), by means of a written notice delivered at least 10 days prior to the Auction Date on which the  Remarketing  Agent desires to effect the change to the Trustee,  the Authority and the Auction Agent in substantially the form attached hereto as, or containing  substantially the information  contained in,  Exhibit  E. Such  notice is  required  to state  the  determination  of the Remarketing  Agent to change such  percentages  and the date such  adjustment is proposed to take effect (which date shall be an Auction Date). Such notice shall be effective  only if it is accompanied by the form of opinion that Bond Counsel expects  to be  able  to give on such  Auction  Date  to the  effect  that  such adjustment is authorized by this Indenture,  is permitted under the Act and will not have an adverse  effect on the  exclusion  of interest  on the Auction  Rate Bonds from gross income for federal  income tax  purposes.  The Auction Agent  is required to mail notice thereof to the Existing Holders within two Business Days of receipt thereof. 

3.An adjustment in the percentage  used in determining the All Hold Rate and the Applicable Percentages used in determining the Maximum Auction Rate shall take  effect on an Auction  Date only if (A) the  Trustee  and the Auction Agent  receive,  by  11:00  a.m.  (New  York  City  time)  on the  Business  Day immediately  preceding  such Auction  Date, a certificate  from the  Remarketing Agent by  telecopy or similar  means,  (i)  authorizing  the  adjustment  of the percentage used in determining the All Hold Rate and the Applicable  Percentages used in  determining  the Maximum  Auction Rate which shall be specified in such authorization,  and (ii) confirming that Bond Counsel expects to be able to give an  opinion  on such  Auction  Date to the  effect  that the  adjustment  in the percentage used in determining the All Hold Rate and the Applicable  Percentages used in determining the Maximum Auction Rate is authorized by this Indenture, is permitted  under the Act and will not have an adverse effect on the exclusion of interest on the  Auction  Rate Bonds from gross  income for  federal  income tax purposes,  and (B) the Trustee and the Auction  Agent  receive by 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on such Auction  Date,  an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that the adjustment in the percentage  used in determining the All Hold Rate and the  Applicable  Percentages  used in  determining  the Maximum  Auction Rate is authorized by this  Indenture,  is permitted  under the Act and will not have an adverse effect on the exclusion of interest on the Auction Rate Bonds from gross income for federal  income tax  purposes.  If the  condition  referred to in (A) above is not met, the existing  percentage used in determining the All Hold Rate and the   Applicable  Percentages  used in determining  the Maximum  Auction Rate shall  remain in effect and the  Auction  Rate for the next  succeeding  Auction Period 

III-16

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

shall be determined pursuant to the Auction Procedures.  If the condition referred to in (B) above is not met, the existing percentage used in determining the All Hold Rate and the Applicable Percentages used in determining the Maximum Auction Rate shall remain in effect and the Auction Rate for the next succeeding Auction  Period  shall  equal the Maximum  Auction  Rate as  determined  on such Auction Date.

Bonds. If the condition referred to in (B) above is not met with  respect to any change to a Fixed Rate from an Auction Rate, the Auction Rate for the next succeeding  Auction Period shall be equal to the Maximum  Auction Rate as  determined  as of such Auction Date. If any of the conditions  referred to in (B) above are not met with respect to any change from any other  Adjustable  Rate to a Fixed Rate,  the Bonds  shall  continue to bear interest  at the  Adjustable  Rate then borne by the Bonds and be subject to the provisions of this Indenture applicable thereto while the Bonds bear interest at such Adjustable Rate. If any of the foregoing conditions to the establishment of a Fixed Rate (other than with  respect to any  attempted  change from an Auction Rate to a Fixed  Rate)  are not met,  the  Trustee  shall  mail,  or  cause  the Registrar  and  Paying  Agent  to mail to the  Authority,  the  Holders  and the Company,  notice  thereof  in  substantially  the form  attached  hereto  as, or containing substantially the information contained in, Exhibit D hereto within 3 Business Days after the failure to meet any of said conditions.
Section 4.03    Conversion  Generally.  1. In the  event of a Change in the Interest  Rate Mode on less than all the  Bonds of a series or  subseries  to or from an Auction  Rate,  the  minimum  aggregate  principal  amount of Bonds that continue to bear,  or are  adjusted to bear  interest at an Auction  Rate for an Auction Rate Period,  shall not be less than  $20,000,000  for such Auction Rate Bonds.

2.Upon any Change in the Interest Rate Mode to an Auction Rate, the Authority  and the  Trustee,  shall take all steps  necessary to comply with any agreement  entered into with a Securities  Depository or its nominee pursuant to Section  2.03(5)  with  respect  to  such  Change  in the  Interest  Rate  Mode, including,  without limitation, the purchase and designation of sufficient CUSIP numbers to comply with the requirements of such Securities  Depository following any such Change in the Interest Rate Mode.

3.If the interest rate on less than all Bonds is to be converted to a new  Adjustable  Rate  pursuant to Section 4.01 or to a Fixed Rate pursuant to Section  4.02,  the  particular  Bonds to be  converted  shall be  chosen by the Trustee,  or the  Trustee  shall  direct the  Registrar  and Paying  Agent to so choose,  in such  manner as the  Trustee or  Registrar  and Paying  Agent in its discretion may deem proper;  provided,  however, that the portion of any Bond to be  converted  shall be in the  principal  amount of  $100,000  or any  integral multiple of such amount  during a  Commercial  Paper Rate  Period,  a Daily Rate Period,  a Weekly Rate Period or a Monthly Rate Period,  $50,000 or any integral multiple  thereof  during an  Auction  Rate  Period,  or $5,000 or any  integral multiple  thereof at any other time and that, in selecting Bonds for conversion, the Trustee or Registrar and Paying Agent shall treat each Bond as  representing that number of Bonds which is obtained by dividing the principal  amount of such registered Bond in excess of $100,000 by $100,000 during a Commercial Paper Rate Period,  a Daily Rate  Period,  a Weekly Rate Period or a Monthly  Rate  Period, $50,000  during an  Auction  Rate  Period,  and  $5,000 at any other  time (such amounts  being  hereinafter  referred to as the  “applicable  units of principal amount”).  If it is  determined  that one or more,  but not all of the $100,000, $50,000 or $5,000 units of principal  amount  represented by any such Bond is to be converted, then upon notice of intention to convert such $100,000, $50,000 or $5,000 unit or units  pursuant to Sections 4.01 or 4.02, as the case may be, the Holders of such Bonds shall forthwith  surrender such Bonds to the Registrar and Paying Agent for (1) payment of the purchase price  (including  the premium,  if  any, and accrued and

IV-5

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

unpaid  interest to the date fixed for  conversion)  of the $100,000,  $50,000  or  $5,000  unit or units of  principal  amount  called  for conversion  and (2) exchange for a new Bond or Bonds in the aggregate  principal amount of the balance of the principal of such Bonds not subject to  conversion.  If the Holders of any such Bond of a denomination greater than $100,000, $50,000 or $5,000 shall fail to present such Bond to the Registrar and Paying Agent, for payment and exchange as aforesaid, such Bond shall, nevertheless, become due and payable on the date fixed for conversion to the extent of the $100,000,  $50,000 or $5,000 unit or units of principal  amount subject to such  conversion (and to that extent only).
4. Notwithstanding  anything in this Article IV to the contrary, the Authority  may not effect a Change in the Interest Rate Mode pursuant to Section 4.01 and the  Authority  may not  exercise its option to convert to a Fixed Rate pursuant to Section 4.02 if such action  would  require the payment of a premium upon  purchase of Bonds  pursuant to Section  5.04 unless  there shall have been deposited the full amount of such premium in trust with the Trustee prior to any notification of a change pursuant to Section 4.01 or 4.02.

Section 5.03    Tender for and Purchase  upon Election of Holder.  1. During any Daily Rate Period or Weekly Rate  Period,  any Bond or portion  thereof in a principal  amount equal to an authorized  denomination (so long as the principal amount not  purchased is an authorized  denomination)  shall be purchased on the demand  of the  Holder  thereof  on any  Business  Day at a price  equal  to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid  interest,  if any, to the date of purchase, upon delivery to the Registrar and Paying Agent and the Remarketing Agent at their  respective  principal  offices,  by the close of business on any Business  Day of a Notice  of  Election  to  Tender  in  substantially  the form attached hereto as, or containing  substantially  the information  contained in, Exhibit  E hereto;  provided,  however,  that the  substance  of such  Notice of Election to Tender must also be given  telephonically  to the Remarketing  Agent prior to or  simultaneously  with delivery of such written Notice of Election to Tender to the Remarketing  Agent.

If a Holder  fails to deliver the Bonds  referred to in such notice to the  Registrar and Paying Agent, such Bonds shall nevertheless be deemed to have been purchased on the date  established for the purchase  thereof,  no interest shall accrue on such Bonds from and after the date of  purchase  and such  Holder  shall have no rights  hereunder  thereafter  as the owner of such  Bonds  except  the right to receive the purchase price of such Bonds.

During  any Term Rate Period or Fixed Rate Period,  the Bonds are also subject to redemption  prior to maturity in whole at any time at the option of the  Authority,  exercised at the direction of the Company,  upon notice given as provided in the Indenture,  at a redemption  price equal to the principal  amount  thereof,  together with unpaid interest  accrued  thereon  to the  date  fixed  for  redemption,  in any of the following events:

		
	i.
	All or  substantially  all of the Project  shall have been damaged or destroyed or title to, or the  temporary use of, all or a substantial  portion of the Project  shall have been taken under the exercise  of  the  power  of  eminent  domain  by  any  governmental           authority,  or person, firm or corporation acting under governmental authority, as in each case renders the Project unsatisfactory to the Company for its intended use;

		
	ii.
	Unreasonable burdens or excessive  liabilities shall have been imposed  upon the  Authority or the Company with respect to all or substantially all of the Project,  including  without  limitation the  imposition  of  federal,  state or other ad  valorem  property, income or other taxes  other than ad valorem  taxes in effect on the date of original  issuance of the Bonds levied upon privately  owned property used for the same general purpose as the Project; or

		
	iii.
	Any court or  regulatory  or  administrative  body shall enter or  adopt,  or fail to  enter or  adopt,  a  judgment,  order, approval,  decree,  rule or  regulation,  as a result  of which  the Company elects to cease operation of all or substantially all of the Project.

Section 5.06    Special Tax Redemption Provisions.  1. During any Semi-annual Rate Period,  Term Rate Period or Fixed Rate Period,  the Bonds shall be subject to mandatory redemption as a whole (provided,  however,  that the Bonds shall be redeemed in part if the Company obtains an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that,  by  redeeming  such portion of the Bonds,  the interest on the  remaining Bonds will not be included  for Federal  income tax purposes in the gross income of any owner of the Bonds  (other than an owner who is a  “substantial  user” of the Project or a “related person” within the meaning of Section 147(a)(1) of the Code)) at any time at a redemption  price equal to 100% of the principal  amount thereof,  together with unpaid interest  accrued thereon to the redemption date, if, in a published  or private  ruling of the 

V-4

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

Internal  Revenue  Service or in a final,  nonappealable  judicial  decision by a court of  competent  jurisdiction (provided  that the Company has been afforded the  opportunity to participate at its own expense in the proceeding  resulting in such ruling or in the litigation resulting in such  decision,  as the case may be), it is  determined  that, as a result of a failure  by the  Company  to  observe  any  covenant,  agreement  or representation in the Participation  Agreement or the Tax Regulatory  Agreement, interest on the Bonds is included  for Federal  income tax purposes in the gross income (as defined in Section 61 of the Code) of any owner of a Bond (other than a “substantial  user” of the Project or a “related person” within the meaning of Section  147(a)(1) of the Code),  and, in such event, the Bonds shall be subject to such  mandatory  redemption not more than one hundred eighty (180) days after receipt by the Trustee of notice of such published or private ruling or judicial decision and a demand for redemption of the Bonds.  The  occurrence of an event requiring the  redemption of the Bonds under this  paragraph does not constitute an  event  of  default  under  any  Note or  under  the  Indenture  and the sole obligation  in such  event  shall be for the  Company  to prepay  the Note in an amount sufficient to redeem the Bonds to the extent required by this paragraph.
2.During any  Semi-annual  Rate  Period,  Term Rate Period or Fixed Rate  Period,  the  Bonds may be  redeemed  in whole or in part at any time at a redemption  price equal to 100% of the principal  amount thereof,  together with accrued and unpaid interest  thereon to the redemption  date, if the Company has determined,  on the basis of the advice of Bond Counsel that, as a result of any action taken or expected to be taken,  or failure to take  action,  a reasonable risk exists that interest on the bonds will not be excludable  from gross income for federal tax purposes.  Such conclusion and certification  shall be evidenced by delivery to the Trustee of a written  certificate  of an  Authorized  Company Representative  to the effect  that the Company  has  reached  such  conclusion, together with a copy of such advice of Bond Counsel.  The occurrence of an event permitting  the redemption of the Bonds under this paragraph does not constitute an  event  of  default  under  any  Note or  under  the  Indenture  and the sole obligation  in such  event  shall be for the  Company  to prepay  the Note in an amount sufficient to redeem the Bonds to the extent required by this paragraph. 

3.During any  Semi-annual  Rate  Period,  Term Rate Period or Fixed Rate  Period,  the Bonds  will also be  subject  to  mandatory  redemption  at a redemption  price equal to one hundred  three  percent  (103%) of the  principal amount thereof plus unpaid  interest  accrued  thereon to the redemption date if the Company reasonably concludes and certifies to the Trustee that the business, properties, condition (financial or otherwise), operations or business prospects of the Company will be  materially  and  adversely  affected  unless the Company takes or omits to take a specified  action and that the Company has been advised in writing by Bond Counsel that the specified action or omission would cause the use of the Project to be such that,  pursuant  to Section  150 of the Code,  the Company  would not be entitled to deduct the  interest on the Bonds for purposes of determining the Company's  Federal  taxable income,  for a period of not less than ninety  (90)  consecutive  or  nonconsecutive  days  during a  twelve-month period.  Such conclusion and certification shall be evidenced by delivery to the Trustee of a written certificate of an Authorized Company  Representative to the effect that the Company has reached such  conclusion,  together with a certified copy of a resolution  of the Board of Trustees of the Company  authorizing  such certificate  and a copy of such  advice of Bond  Counsel.  In the event that the Bonds become 

V-5

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

subject to redemption as provided in this paragraph, the Bonds will be redeemed in whole  unless  redemption  of a portion of the Bonds  outstanding would, in the opinion of Bond Counsel,  have the result that interest payable on the Bonds remaining  outstanding  after such redemption  would be deductible for purposes of determining the Federal taxable income of the Company,  and, in such  event,  the Bonds to be redeemed  shall be selected (in the principal  amount of $5,000 or any  integral  multiple  thereof)  from time to time at random in such manner as the Trustee shall determine in accordance with the Indenture,  in such amount as is necessary to  accomplish  that result.  The  occurrence of an event requiring the  redemption of the Bonds under this  paragraph does not constitute an  event  of  default  under  any  Note or  under  the  Indenture  and the sole obligation  in such  event  shall be for the  Company  to prepay  the Note in an amount sufficient to redeem the Bonds to the extent required by this paragraph. 
Section 5.07    Redemption at Demand of the State.  In accordance  with the provisions  of  Section  1864 of the  Act,  the  State  of New  York  may,  upon furnishing  sufficient funds therefor,  require the Authority to redeem prior to maturity,  as a whole,  the  Bonds on any  Interest  Payment  Date not less than twenty  years  after  the  Closing  Date.  Any  such  redemption  shall  be at a redemption price equal to the optional  redemption price, if any,  applicable on such date set forth in Section 5.01 or if no such optional  redemption  price is applicable at a redemption  price of 105% of the principal  amount  thereof,  in either  case,  together  with accrued and unpaid  interest,  if any, to the date fixed  for  redemption,  all in the  manner  provided  in this  Article  V.  The Authority  shall deposit any such funds received by it with the Trustee.  During any period during which no Direct-Pay Credit Facility is in effect,  the Trustee shall deposit any such funds in the Bond Fund and, upon notice  published in the manner  provided  in  Section  1864 of the Act,  shall  apply  such funds to the redemption of the Bonds. During any period in which a Direct-Pay Credit Facility is in effect,  the  Trustee  shall  deposit  any such funds  received by it in a segregated sub-account in the Bond Fund, and upon notice published in the manner provided in Section 1864 of the Act,  shall draw monies under the related Credit Facility  pursuant to Article XV and apply such payment to the redemption of the Bonds at the price and in the manner specified in the preceding  sentence.  Upon the  application  of such Credit  Facility  payments,  the Trustee shall pay the funds  furnished  by  the  State  to the  issuer  of the  Credit  Facility  with instructions  to apply  such  funds to the  reimbursement  of the  issuer of the Credit  Facility for such Support  Facility  payment.  Upon such  redemption and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Article XV, the Trustee shall assign the Note relating to the Bonds to or as directed by the Authority.

Section 5.08    Mandatory Tender for Purchase Upon Expiration of any Support Facility or Upon Delivery of a Credit Facility or an Alternate Support Facility. 1. Except as otherwise set forth in the last  sentence of this  subsection 1, on the second  Business Day next  preceding  the date of  expiration of any Support Facility  or any  Alternate  Support  Facility,  the Bonds  shall be  subject to mandatory  purchase at the  Purchase  Price,  unless on or prior to the 35th day prior to such date of  expiration  the  Company on behalf of the  Authority  has furnished to the Trustee an agreement to extend such Support Facility. The Bonds shall also be subject to mandatory  purchase at the Purchase  Price, on the date there is delivered a Credit Facility or an Alternate  Support  Facility  meeting the  requirements  of Section 6.02. No tender for purchase of any Bonds shall be required  pursuant to this Section 5.08 during an Auction Rate Period or a Fixed Rate Period.

Section 5.09    Mandatory Tender Upon Occurrence of any Terminating Event. 1. Except as otherwise  set forth in the last  sentence of this  subsection 1, upon the occurrence of any Terminating Event, the Bonds shall be subject to mandatory tender for  purchase at the  Purchase  Price on a Business  Day  selected by the Trustee; provided, however, such mandatory tender  shall not occur later than the 7th  Business  Day  after  receipt  of notice  of the  Terminating  Event by the Trustee. The Bonds will not be subject to mandatory tender for purchase pursuant to this Section 5.09 during any Auction Rate Period or any Fixed Rate Period.

Notice of the  mandatory  tender for  purchase  required by this Section 5.09 shall be in  substantially  the form attached hereto as, or contain substantially the information  contained in, Exhibit F hereto and shall be given to the Holders of the Bonds  subject to  mandatory  tender for purchase at their addresses  shown on the books of registry on or before the second  Business  Day after  receipt of notice of a  Terminating  Event from the issuer of the Support Facility by the  Trustee,  in the name of the  Authority,  or the Trustee  shall cause the Registrar and Paying Agent to give such notice, by first-class mail to the Holders of the Bonds subject to purchase at their address shown on the books of registry (with copies thereof given to the Authority,  the Remarketing Agent, the Company and the Registrar and Paying Agent). 

3.Bonds held by or for the  account of the Company or the issuer of a Support Facility are not subject to mandatory tender for purchase  pursuant to this Section 5.09.

Section 5.10    General  Provisions  Applicable  to Mandatory  and Optional Tenders for Purchase of Bonds.  1. If interest has been paid on the Bonds, or an amount  sufficient to pay interest  thereon has been deposited in the Bond Fund, or an amount  sufficient to pay accrued interest  thereon,  if any, has been set aside in the Bond Purchase Fund held under the Bond  Purchase  Trust  Agreement, and the Purchase  Price shall be available in the Bond Purchase Fund for payment of Bonds subject to tender for purchase  pursuant to Section 5.03, 5.04, 5.08 or 5.09, and if any Holder fails to deliver or does not properly  deliver the Bonds to the  Registrar  and Paying Agent for which a Notice of Election to Tender has been properly filed or which are subject to mandatory tender for purchase on the purchase date therefor,  such Bonds shall  nevertheless  be deemed  tendered and purchased on the date  established for the purchase  thereof,  no interest shall accrue on such Bonds from and after the date of purchase and such former Holders shall have no rights  hereunder as the registered  owners of such Bonds,  except the right

V-7

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

to receive the purchase price of and interest to the purchase date, if any, on such Bonds upon  delivery  thereof to the  Registrar and Paying Agent in accordance  with  the  provisions  hereof.  The  purchaser  of  any  such  Bonds remarketed by the Remarketing  Agent, or the issuer of any Support Facility,  to the extent Bonds are  purchased  with the proceeds of a draw on, or borrowing or payment under,  the Support  Facility,  shall be treated as the registered owner thereof for all  purposes  of the  Indenture.  The payment of Bonds  pursuant to Section  5.03 shall be subject to delivery of such Bonds duly  endorsed in blank for  transfer  or  accompanied  by an  instrument  of  transfer  thereof in form satisfactory to the Registrar and Paying Agent executed in blank for transfer at the principal office of the Registrar and Paying Agent at or prior to 10:00 a.m. (11:30 a.m. for Bonds  bearing  interest at the Weekly Rate and 12:00 noon,  for Bonds bearing  interest at the Daily Rate) (New York City time),  on a specified purchase  date.  The  Registrar and Paying Agent may refuse to make payment with  respect to any Bonds tendered for purchase pursuant to Sections 5.03, 5.04, 5.08 or  5.09  not  endorsed  in  blank  or  for  which  an  instrument  of  transfer satisfactory to the Registrar and Paying Agent has not been provided.
2.The  Purchase  Price of Bonds  subject  to  tender  for  purchase pursuant to Section 5.03, 5.04, 5.08 or 5.09 in an aggregate principal amount of at least one  million  dollars  ($1,000,000)  shall be  payable  in  immediately available  funds or by wire transfer upon written notice from the Holder thereof containing the wire transfer  address (which shall be in the continental  United States) to which such Holder wishes to have such wire directed,  if such written notice is received  by the  Registrar  and Paying  Agent not less than five days prior to the related purchase date.

3.Bonds  subject to  mandatory  tender for  purchase  pursuant  to Sections  5.08 or 5.09 shall not be  remarketed  unless  and until an  Alternate Support Facility meeting the requirements of Section 6.02 of the Indenture is in full force and effect;  provided,  however,  that Bonds may be remarketed and no such Alternate  Support Facility is required to be in effect if, at the time the Bonds are sought to be remarketed, the Bonds bear interest at an Auction Rate or a Fixed Rate.

4.In the event Bonds tendered for purchase pursuant to Section 5.03 or 5.04  shall be paid from a drawing  under a  Liquidity  Facility,  such Bonds shall not be remarketed unless and until the Registrar and Paying Agent has been notified by the Liquidity  Facility Issuer and, upon receipt of such notice, the Registrar  and Paying Agent has notified the  Remarketing  Agent that the amount available for a drawing under such Liquidity Facility has been restored. 

Section 5.11    Selection  of Bonds to be Redeemed.  A redemption  of Bonds shall be a  redemption  of the whole or of any part of the Bonds  from any funds available  for  that  purpose  in a  principal  amount  equal  to an  authorized denomination  (so long as the  principal  amount not  redeemed is an  authorized denomination). If less than all Bonds shall be redeemed, the particular Bonds to be redeemed  shall be chosen by the  Trustee,  or the Trustee  shall  direct the Registrar and Paying Agent to so choose, as hereinafter  provided.  If less than all the Bonds  shall be  called  for  redemption  under  any  provision  of this Indenture  permitting such partial redemption,  the particular Bonds or portions of Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected (a) first, from Bonds held or owned by or for the issuer of a Support Facility  pursuant to any Support  Facility, 

V-8

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

(b) second, from Bonds for which the Registrar and Paying Agent has received,  priorto such  selection,  a Notice of Election to Tender  requiring the Registrar and Paying  Agent to  purchase  such  Bonds on the date on  which  the  Bonds  being selected  are  to  be  redeemed  and  (c)  third,  from  all  other  Bonds  then Outstanding,  by lot or on a pro rata basis by the Trustee or, upon direction of the Trustee,  the Registrar  and Paying Agent,  in such manner as the Trustee or Registrar and Paying Agent in its discretion may deem proper; provided, however,that the portion of any Bond to be redeemed shall be in the principal  amount of $100,000 or any integral multiple thereof during a Commercial Paper Rate Period, a Daily Rate Period,  a Weekly Rate Period or a Monthly Rate Period,  $50,000 or any integral  multiple  thereof during an Auction Rate Period,  or $5,000 or any integral  multiple  thereof at any other time and that,  in selecting  Bonds for redemption,  the Trustee or Registrar  and Paying Agent shall treat each  Bond as representing  that number of Bonds which is obtained by dividing  the  principal amount of such  registered  Bond in  excess of  $100,000  by  $100,000  during a Commercial  Paper Rate Period,  a Daily Rate  Period,  a Weekly Rate Period or a Monthly Rate Period,  $50,000  during an Auction Rate Period,  and $5,000 at any other time (such amounts being hereinafter  referred to as the “applicable units of principal amount”).  If it is determined that one or more, but not all of the $100,000,  $50,000 or $5,000 units of principal  amount  represented by any such Bond is to be called for  redemption,  then upon notice of  intention  to redeem such $100,000,  $50,000 or $5,000 unit or units, the Holders of such Bonds shall forthwith surrender such Bonds to the Registrar and Paying Agent for (1) payment of the redemption price (including the redemption  premium,  if any, and accrued interest to the date fixed for  redemption)  of the $100,000,  $50,000 or $5,000 unit or units of principal  amount called for  redemption and (2) exchange for a new Bond or Bonds of the aggregate principal amount of the unredeemed balance of the principal of such Bonds.  If the Holders of any such Bond of a  denomination greater than $100,000,  $50,000 or $5,000 shall fail to present such Bond to the Registrar  and Paying Agent,  for payment and exchange as  aforesaid,  such Bond shall, nevertheless,  become due and payable on the date fixed for redemption to the extent of the $100,000,  $50,000 or $5,000 unit or units of principal amount called for redemption (and to that extent only).
Section 5.12    Notice of Redemption.  1. Notice of redemption shall be given by the Trustee by mailing a copy of the redemption notice by first-class mail at least 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the Holders of the Bonds to be redeemed at the addresses shown on the  registration  books  maintained by the Registrar and Paying Agent. Any redemption may be conditioned on the receipt of moneys by the  Registrar and Paying Agent  sufficient  to pay the  redemption price on the Redemption  Date of Bonds called for  redemption,  if the notice of redemption so states.

2.The  Registrar and Paying Agent shall not be required to transfer or exchange Bonds during any period beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day of mailing of a notice of redemption  and ending at the close of business on the day fixed for redemption;  provided,  however, that the foregoing  shall not apply during a Daily Rate Period,  a Weekly Rate Period,  a Commercial Paper Rate Period or an Auction Rate Period. 

3.Each notice of redemption  shall state: (i) the full title of the Bonds,  the redemption  date,  the place of redemption and the redemption  price payable upon such  redemption;  

V-9

(ii) that the  interest on the Bonds,  or on the principal  amount  thereof to be redeemed,  shall cease to accrue from and after such  redemption  date and (iii)  that on said date  there  will  become due and payable  on the  Bonds the  principal  amount  thereof  to be  redeemed  and the interest  accrued on such principal  amount to the redemption  date, if any, and the premium, if any, thereon.  Each notice of redemption mailed to the Holder of the  Bonds  shall,  if less  than the  entire  principal  sum  thereof  is to be redeemed, also state the principal amount thereof and the distinctive numbers of the Bonds to be redeemed and that such Bonds must be  surrendered to the Trustee in exchange for the payment of the principal  amount  thereof to be redeemed and the  issuance of a new Bond  equaling in  principal  amount that  portion of the principal sum not to be redeemed of the Bonds to be surrendered.  The failure to give  notice to any  Holder of a Bond or any  defects in such  notice  shall not affect the proceedings for the redemption of the Bonds for which notice has been properly given.
Section 5.13    Bonds  purchased for account of Liquidity  Facility  Issuer. Bonds subject to mandatory purchase pursuant to Section 5.03, 5.04, 5.08 or 5.09 shall be  deemed  to be  purchased  by the  Company  except  to the  extent  the Liquidity  Facility expressly provides that the Bonds are to be purchased by the issuer of the Liquidity Facility in which event such Bonds shall be deemed to be purchased by the issuer of the Liquidity Facility in a principal amount equal to the amount of a draw on, or borrowing or payment under,  the Liquidity  Facility for the  payment  of  Bonds  subject  to  purchase,  upon the  deposit  with the Registrar  and Paying  Agent of the  proceeds of such draw on, or  borrowing  or payment  under,  the  Liquidity  Facility in an amount equal to the principal of such Bonds plus accrued  interest  thereon to the purchase  date, and such Bonds shall not be deemed paid and shall remain outstanding hereunder until the issuer of the Liquidity  Facility has been  reimbursed for such draws on, or borrowings or payments  under,  the Liquidity  Facility to pay such principal and interest. Unless the issuer of any Liquidity  Facility shall otherwise  direct,  any Bonds purchased  by  the  issuer  of  the  Liquidity  Facility  shall  be  immediately registered  in the  name of the  Company  except  to the  extent  the  Liquidity Facility  expressly provides that the Bonds are to be purchased by the issuer of the Liquidity Facility in which event such Bonds shall be registered in the name of the  issuer  of the  Liquidity  Facility  as a Holder  and the  issuer of the Liquidity  Facility  shall  have all  rights  of a Holder  of Bonds  under  this Indenture.

Section 5.14    Effect of Redemption.  If the Bonds have been duly called for redemption and notice of the redemption  thereof has been duly given or provided for as  hereinbefore  provided and if monies for the payment of the Bonds (or of the principal  amount  thereof to be redeemed) and the interest to accrue to the redemption  date  on the  Bonds  (or  of  the  principal  amount  thereof  to be redeemed),  if any, and the premium, if any, thereon are held for the purpose of such payment by the Trustee,  then the Bonds (or the principal amount thereof to be redeemed) shall on the redemption date designated in such notice,  become due and payable and  interest on the Bonds (or the  principal  amount  thereof to be redeemed) so called for redemption  shall cease to accrue from such date and the Holder thereof shall  thereafter have no rights  hereunder as the Holder of such Bonds (or the  principal  amount  thereof to be redeemed)  except to receive the principal  amount  thereof  and premium  (if any)  thereon  and  interest to the redemption date.

SUPPORT FACILITY
Section 6.01    Support  Facility - General.  Pursuant to the  Participation Agreement,  the Company has agreed not to request  that the  interest  rate mode applicable to the Bonds be adjusted to an Adjustable  Rate other than an Auction Rate unless  there  shall be in effect,  prior to the  applicable  Change in the Interest  Rate  Mode,  one  or  more  Support  Facilities  which  (i)  meet  the requirements  of this  Article VI and (ii) permit the Bonds to be rated at least “A” by S&P or “A” by  Moody's or its  equivalent  by any  nationally  recognized rating agency.  The Company has further agreed to maintain a Liquidity  Facility meeting the  requirements  of the  Participation  Agreement  with respect to the Bonds at all times,  except with respect to Bonds bearing interest at an Auction Rate or a Fixed Rate. A Liquidity  Facility  also must be in effect prior to (i) any Change in the Interest Rate Mode from an Auction Rate to another  Adjustable Rate (other than a Change in the Interest Rate Mode to an Auction Rate Period or a  conversion  to a Fixed Rate),  and (ii) any change in the Interest  Rate Mode from a Fixed Rate to an  Adjustable  Rate (other  than a Change in the  Interest Rate Mode to an Auction Rate  Period). The Trustee  shall be  furnished  with a certified copy of any Support Facility obtained pursuant to this Section 6.01.  

Any  Support  Facility  Issuer not  located in New York State  shall provide  the Trustee  with a list of holidays on which it is closed  through the next succeeding  January 1 at the beginning of the term of such Support Facility and by January 1 of each year thereafter.

Section 6.02    Alternate Support  Facility.  (1) At any time, the Authority may, at the request of the  Company,  provide for the delivery to the Trustee of an Alternate Support Facility.  The terms of an Alternate Support Facility shall be the same as the Support Facility in all respects material to the security for the Bonds; provided that the termination date of such Alternate Support Facility shall be a date not earlier than 364 days from its date of issuance,  subject to earlier  termination  upon the occurrence of (i) a Terminating  Event or another event  of  default   under  the  related   reimbursement   agreement   or  other corresponding  agreement  relating to such Alternate Support Facility,  (ii) the issuance of a subsequent  Alternate Support  Facility,  (iii) payment in full of the  Outstanding  Bonds or (iv) a Change in the Interest Rate Mode to an Auction Rate or a Fixed Rate.  On or prior to the date of the  delivery of an  Alternate Support  Facility to the Trustee,  the Company  shall  furnish to the Trustee on behalf of the Authority (a) an opinion of Bond Counsel stating that the delivery of such  Alternate  Support  Facility  to the Trustee is  authorized  under this Indenture and complies with the terms hereof and (b)  confirmation  from S&P, if the Bonds are then rated by S&P,  from  Moody's,  if the Bonds are then rated by Moody's,  or another rating  agency,  if the Bonds are then rated by such rating agency,  to the  effect  that such  rating  agency  has  reviewed  the  proposed Alternate  Support Facility and that the substitution of the proposed  Alternate Support  Facility  for the Support  Facility  will not,  by itself,  result in a reduction or withdrawal of its long or short-term  rating of the Bonds below the rating  category of S&P or Moody's or such other rating agency,  as the case may be, then in effect with respect to the Bonds.

VI -1

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

2.Nothing  contained  herein shall prevent the  Authority,  at the request of the  Company,  from  delivering  an  Alternate  Support  Facility  in substitution  for a Support  Facility  which  will  result  in a decline  in the short-term or long-term  rating or both assigned to such Bonds by Moody's or S&P or such  other  rating  agency as a result of the  Alternate  Support  Facility; provided,  that (i) the opinion of Bond  Counsel  referred  to in the  preceding paragraph is obtained;  provided  that such opinion  shall also be to the effect that delivery of such Alternate  Support  Facility will not adversely affect the exclusion  from gross  income of interest  on the Bonds for  federal  income tax purposes  and (ii) all  Outstanding  Bonds are subject to  mandatory  tender for purchase  pursuant to Section  5.08  (unless the Bonds bear an Auction Rate or a Fixed Rate).  The Authority,  or the Company on behalf of the  Authority,  shall deliver  notice to the  Trustee  of the  substitution  of an  Alternate  Support Facility which will result in a decline in the  short-term or long-term  ratings assigned to the Bonds  pursuant to this  subsection  2 of Section  6.02 at least forty-five (45) days before the date of substitution.

Section 6.03    Trustee not Responsible for Enforcement of Support Facility. The Trustee shall have no responsibility  with respect to the enforcement of any Support Facility obtained hereunder.

GENERAL TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF BONDS
Section 7.01    Execution and  Authentication  of Bonds.  The Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the Authority by the manual or facsimile  signature of its Chair,  Vice-Chair,  President,  Treasurer  or any Vice  President  and shall be sealed  with  the  seal  of the  Authority,  or in  lieu  thereof  shall  bear a lithographed,  engraved or otherwise  reproduced facsimile of such seal attested by the manual or facsimile signature of its Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary or an Assistant Secretary.

Bonds  bearing the manual  signature of the officer of the Authority authorized  to execute  such Bonds in office on the date of such manual  signing thereof  and  Bonds  bearing  the  facsimile  signature  of the  officer  of the Authority  authorized  to  execute  such  Bonds  in  office  on the  date of the reproducing  of such  facsimile  signature  on such  Bonds,  shall be valid  and binding obligations in accordance with their terms,  notwithstanding that before the delivery  thereof and payment  therefor the person whose  signature  appears thereon shall have ceased to be such officer.
Only Bonds having endorsed  thereon a certificate of  authentication substantially in the form set forth in Article XVI, duly executed by the Trustee shall be entitled to any right or benefit under this  Indenture.  No Bonds shall be valid or  obligatory  for any purpose  unless and until such  certificate  of authentication   shall  have  been  duly  executed  by  the  Trustee,  and  such  certificate  of the Trustee upon a Bond shall be  conclusive  evidence that such Bond has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture and that the Holder  thereof is entitled to the  benefits of this  Indenture.  The  Trustee's certificate  of  authentication  on any Bond  shall be  deemed to have been duly executed if signed by an authorized officer of the Trustee.
Section 7.02    Books of Registry . The Registrar and Paying Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at its  principal  office books  (herein  referred to as the “books of registry” or  “registration  books”) for the registration and transfer of the Bonds.  Upon  presentation  at its principal  office for such purpose the Registrar  and  Paying  Agent,  under  such  reasonable  regulations  as it  may prescribe, shall register or transfer, or cause to be registered or transferred, on said books of  registry,  the Bonds as  hereinafter  set forth.  The books of registry shall at all times during  business hours be open for inspection by the Authority,  the  Company  and the  Trustee  or their duly  authorized  agents or representatives.

Section 7.03    Transfer, Registration and Exchange of Bonds. The transfer of the Bonds may be registered only upon the books of registry  required to be kept pursuant to Section  7.02 upon  surrender  thereof to the  Registrar  and Paying Agent, together with an assignment duly executed by the Holder thereof or his or her duly authorized  agent and accompanied by a guarantee of signature,  each in such form as shall be satisfactory  to the Registrar and Paying Agent.  Upon any such  registration of transfer the Authority shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate  and  deliver  in  exchange  for  such  Bonds a new  Bond or  Bonds registered in the name of the  transferee or  transferees  for a like  aggregate principal  amount,  of any  

VII-1

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

denomination  or  denominations  authorized  by this Indenture. No transfer of any Bond shall be effective until entered on the books of registry.
Any Bond  surrendered  in any such  registration  of transfer  shall forthwith be cancelled by the Trustee. Any Bonds registered and transferred to a new Holder  pursuant to this  Section  shall be  delivered  to the Holder at the principal  office of the Registrar and Paying Agent or sent by first-class  mail to the Holder at his or her request, risk and expense.
Bonds,  upon  surrender  thereof at the  principal  corporate  trust office of the  Registrar and Paying  Agent,  together  with an  assignment  duly executed  by the  Holder or his or her  authorized  agent and  accompanied  by a guarantee  of  signature,  each in such  form as  shall be  satisfactory  to the Registrar  and  Paying  Agent,  may,  at the option of the  Holder  thereof,  be exchanged for an equal aggregate  principal  amount of Bonds of any denomination or denominations  authorized by this Indenture and in the same form as the Bonds surrendered  for  exchange.  All Bonds so  surrendered  pursuant to this Section shall be cancelled by the Trustee. 
Any Bonds to be delivered to the Holder upon any such exchange shall be delivered to the Holder at the  principal  office of the Registrar and Paying Agent or sent by  first-class  mail to the Holder thereof at his or her request, risk and expense.
Any taxes or other  governmental  charges  required  to be paid with respect to the  registration  of transfer or exchange of the Bonds shall be paid by the  Holder  requesting  registration  of such  transfer  or  exchange,  as a condition  precedent to the  exercise of such  privilege.  The  Authority or the Registrar  and  Paying  Agent,  or  both,  may  charge  the  Company  for  every registration of transfer or exchange  sufficient to reimburse it for any and all costs required to be paid in respect thereof.
Section 7.04    Mutilated, Lost, Stolen, or Destroyed Bonds. In the event any Bond shall be lost,  stolen,  destroyed,  wholly or in part, or so defaced as to impair its value to the Holder,  the Trustee  shall,  upon  compliance  with the terms  provided  by law,  authenticate  and  deliver a new Bond of like date and tenor in exchange or replacement  therefor  against delivery for cancellation of such mutilated Bond, or in lieu of and in replacement of a destroyed,  stolen or lost Bond,  and  upon  payment by the Holder of the  reasonable  expenses  of the Registrar and Paying Agent and the Authority and the  reasonable  charges of the Trustee and Registrar and Paying Agent in connection therewith and, in the event that  the Bond is  destroyed,  stolen  or lost,  the  Holder's  filing  with the Registrar  and Paying  Agent of  evidence  satisfactory  to it that the Bond was destroyed, stolen or lost, of the Holder's ownership thereof, and furnishing the Registrar and Paying Agent and the  Authority  such security and indemnity as is satisfactory to them. Any  replacement  Bond issued under the provisions of this Section  in  exchange  or  substitution  for the  defaced,  mutilated  or partly destroyed  Bond or in  substitution  for the  allegedly  lost,  stolen or wholly destroyed Bond shall be entitled to the identical  benefits under this Indenture as was the original Bond in lieu of which such replacement Bond is issued.  Each such replacement Bond shall be prepared in substantially  the same manner as the original.

VII-2

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

Notwithstanding  the foregoing  provisions  of this Section,  if the lost,  stolen,  destroyed,  defaced or mutilated Bond has matured or been called for  redemption and the date fixed for  redemption  thereof has arrived,  at the option of the Trustee, payment of the amount due thereon may be made without the issuance  of any  replacement  Bond upon  receipt of like  evidence,  indemnity, security  and payment of expenses  and the  surrender  for  cancellation  of the defaced or mutilated or partly  destroyed Bond and upon such other conditions as the Trustee may prescribe.
Except  as  provided  in  this  sentence  and  as  permitted  in the following paragraph, any replacement Bond shall be in the form of the Bond being replaced, and be dated the date of its issuance and bear such number as shall be assigned  thereto  by the  Registrar  and  Paying  Agent,  with  such  subseries designation,  if any, as may be deemed  appropriate  by the  registrar and Paying Agent. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall make an appropriate  notation in the books of  registry  that a  replacement  Bond has been  issued  in  exchange  or substitution  for the  defaced,  mutilated,  lost,  stolen,  or wholly or partly destroyed Bond.  
There may be imprinted or affixed on the face and the panel  portion of any duplicate Bond a mark to identify such Bond as a replacement Bond. 
Prior to arranging for the  preparation or printing of a replacement Bond,  the Trustee and the  Registrar  and Paying Agent may require a deposit by the  Holder to secure  the  Trustee,  the  Registrar  and  Paying  Agent and the  Authority for costs and expenses incurred by them in the preparation,  printing, execution and issuance of such replacement Bond.
Any amount of such  deposit  received  by the  Registrar  and Paying Agent in excess of the amount  required to reimburse  the  Registrar  and Paying Agent,  the Trustee or the Authority for costs and expenses shall be returned to the party which made the deposit. 
Any defaced,  mutilated or partly  destroyed Bond surrendered to the Registrar  and Paying  Agent in  substitution  for a new Bond  pursuant  to this Section shall be cancelled by the Trustee. 
Section 7.05    Temporary Bonds.  Pending the preparation of definitive Bonds,  interim receipts or certificates  (herein referred to as “temporary Bonds”) may initially be issued, exchangeable for definitive  Bonds when the latter are ready for delivery.  Such temporary Bonds may be printed,  lithographed  or typewritten,  shall be of such denomination  or  denominations  as may be  determined  by the Authority and may contain such  references to any of the  provisions  of this  Indenture as may be appropriate.  If  temporary  Bonds are issued,  the  Authority  will cause to be furnished  duly  executed  definitive  Bonds  without  delay,  and thereupon the temporary Bonds may be surrendered for  cancellation at the principal  office of the  Trustee  in  exchange  for  definitive  Bonds and  without  charge for such exchange,  and the Registrar and Paying Agent shall deliver in exchange for such temporary Bonds so surrendered an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive duly executed  Bonds,  of  authorized  denominations.  Until so  exchanged,  the temporary  Bonds shall be entitled to the same benefits  under this Indenture as definitive Bonds.  

VII-3

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

Nothing  in  this   Indenture   shall  prevent  the  Authority  from delivering,  and the Authority is hereby expressly permitted to deliver, Auction Rate Bonds in typewritten form to the Securities  Depository as registered owner thereof.
Section 7.06    Disposition of Bonds.  Any Bond surrendered to the Registrar and  Paying  Agent for  payment  shall be  cancelled  upon such  payment  by the Trustee.  The Trustee shall  destroy any cancelled  Bond which has been paid and which bears any date two (2) years prior to the date of  destruction.  The Bonds shall be destroyed by burning,  machine  shredding,  chemical  disintegration or such other method as is approved by the  Authority.  The  Authority  may require that such destruction be done in the presence of its appointee. When the Trustee shall destroy any Bond, it shall deliver a certificate  of such  destruction  to the Authority and the Company.

The Trustee, with the consent of the Company, shall be authorized to sell any  investment  when  necessary  to make the  payments to be made from the funds and accounts therein. All earnings on and income from monies in said funds and accounts (other than the Project Fund) created hereby shall be considered to be Revenues and shall be held in the respective account in the Bond Fund for use and application as are all other monies deposited in such accounts.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize  or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holders any plan of reorganization,  arrangement,  adjustment or composition  affecting the Bonds or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holders in any such proceeding.
The  provisions of this Section shall not be construed as in any way limiting the powers of the Trustee, with respect to defaults by the Authority or by the Company  under the  Participation  Agreement  and the Note, or an obligor under any other agreement  pledged and assigned  hereunder,  as the case may be, whether such powers be expressly or implicitly  granted to the Trustee elsewhere in this  Indenture  or in the  Participation  Agreement  or the  Note  or  other agreement,  as the case may be,  or as a denial  that the  Trustee  has any such other  powers,  but the powers  granted to the Trustee by this Section  shall be supplemental,   additional  and  cumulative to all other powers  possessed by the Trustee with respect to defaults under this Indenture or under the Participation Agreement,  the Note or other agreement pledged and assigned  hereunder,  as the case may be.
Section 12.06    Disposition of Monies in Event of  Insufficiencies in Funds and Accounts.  All monies (other than proceeds of any Support Facility) received by the Trustee  pursuant to any right given or action taken under the provisions of this  Article,  after  payment of the costs and  expenses of the  proceedings resulting  in the  collection  of such  monies  and of the  expenses,  fees  and advances  incurred or made by the Trustee  hereunder,  shall be deposited in the Bond Fund. If at any time the monies in the Bond Fund shall not be sufficient to pay the interest or principal or premium,  if any (or the redemption  price), of the Bonds as the same  become  due and  payable  (whether  at  maturity  or upon proceedings for the redemption  thereof or by  acceleration  or otherwise),  the monies in such fund, together with any other monies then available or thereafter becoming  available  for such  purpose,  whether  through  the  exercise  of the remedies  provided  for in this  Article XII or  otherwise,  shall be applied as follows:

(a)Unless the  principal of all the Bonds shall have become due and payable or shall have been declared due and payable  pursuant to the  provisions of Section 12.03, all such monies shall be applied:

First:  to  the  payment  to the  persons  entitled  thereto  of all installments  of interest  then due,  in the order of the  maturity of the installments  of such interest,  and if the amount  available shall not be sufficient to pay in full any particular installment,  then to the payment ratably, according to the amounts due on such installment,  to the persons       entitled thereto, without any discrimination or preference; and 

XII-5

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

Second:  to the  payment  of  the  premium,  if  any,  on and  the principal of the Bonds,  to the purchase and  retirement of Bonds and to the redemption of Bonds,  all in accordance  with the provisions of this Indenture.
(b)If the  principal  of all the Bonds  shall  have  become due and payable or shall have been declared due and payable  pursuant to the  provisions of  Section  12.03,  all such  monies  shall be  applied  to the  payment of the principal and interest then due and unpaid,  with interest on such  principal as aforesaid,  without  preference  or priority of  principal  over  interest or of interest  over  principal,  or of any  installment  of  interest  over any other installment  of interest,  or of any Bond over any other Bond,  according to the amounts due  respectively  for principal and interest,  to the persons  entitled thereto without any  discrimination or preference except as to any difference in the respective rates of interest specified in the Bonds. 

(c)If the  principal of all the Bonds shall have been  declared due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.03, and if such declaration shall thereafter have been rescinded and annulled  pursuant to the provisions of such Section 12.03, then, subject to the provisions of subparagraph (b) above of this  paragraph  in the event that the  principal  of all the Bonds  shall later become due and payable or be declared due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.03,  the monies then held in the Bond Fund shall be applied to the payment of the  principal  of and premium (or  redemption  price) on all matured Bonds  and all Bonds (or  portions  of the  principal  amount  thereof)  then or theretofore required to be redeemed pursuant to any provisions of this Indenture (excluding  principal not then due except by reason of such declaration) and all arrears  of  interest  and  interest  then  due,  if any,  upon all  Bonds  then Outstanding,  and any  monies  thereafter  deposited  in the Bond Fund  shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Article IX. 
Whenever  monies are to be applied by the  Trustee  pursuant  to the provisions of subparagraphs  (a) and (b) of this Section,  (i) such monies shall be applied by the Trustee at such times,  and from time to time,  as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall determine,  having due regard to the amount of such monies  available  for  application  and the  likelihood  of  additional  monies becoming available for such application in the future;  (ii) the deposit of such monies, in trust for the proper purpose,  shall constitute proper application by the Trustee;  and (iii) the Trustee  shall incur no liability  whatsoever to the Authority,  to any Holder or to any other  person for any delay in applying  any such monies, so long as the Trustee acts with reasonable  diligence,  having due regard to the circumstances,  and ultimately applies the same in accordance with such  provisions  of  this  Indenture  as  may be  applicable  at  the  time  of application by the Trustee.  Whenever the Trustee shall exercise such discretion in  applying  such  monies,  it shall fix the date  (which  shall be an Interest Payment  Date unless the Trustee  shall deem another  date more  suitable)  upon which such  application is to be made and upon such date interest on the amounts of  principal to be paid on such date shall cease to accrue.  The Trustee  shall give such notice as it may deem  appropriate of the fixing of any such date, and shall not be  required  to make  payment to the Holder of any unpaid  Bond until such Bond shall be surrendered to the Trustee for  appropriate  endorsement,  or for cancellation if fully paid.

Section 12.07    Effect of Delay or Omission; Waiver of Default; Direction of Remedial  Proceedings by the Holders.  No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of the Bonds to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default or Event of Default  shall  impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or acquiescence therein.

Anything in this  Indenture  to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding (determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.03) with the prior written  consent of the Credit Facility Issuer shall be authorized and empowered and have the right,  by an instrument  or  concurrent  instruments  in writing  delivered  to the  Trustee  on behalf of the  Holders of the Bonds then Outstanding   to  consent  to  the  waiver  of  any  Event  of  Default  or  its consequences,  and  the  Trustee  shall  waive  any  Event  of  Default  and its consequences upon the written request of the Holders of such majority; provided, however,  that there shall not be waived (i) any default in payment of principal or premium when due or (ii) any default in payment when due of interest  unless, in either case, prior to such waiver all arrears in principal,  premium, if any, and interest,  with additional interest,  to the extent permitted by law, at the rate then borne by the Bonds (which,  in the case of Auction Rate Bonds shall be the Overdue Rate), and all fees and expenses of the Trustee shall have been paid or provided for; provided,  however,  that  notwithstanding any such waiver, any Auction  Rate Bonds shall  continue to bear  interest at the Overdue  Rate until such Event of Default is cured.  No such  waiver  shall  extend to or affect any other existing or subsequent default or Event of Default or impair any rights or remedies consequent thereon.
            Anything in this  Indenture  to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  the Holders of not less than  twenty-five  percent (25%) in principal  amount of the Bonds at the time  Outstanding  (determined in accordance with the provisions of Section  13.03) with the prior  written  consent of the Credit  Facility  Issuer shall be  authorized  and  empowered  and have the right,  by an  instrument  or concurrent  instruments  in writing  delivered to the Trustee to direct the time and  method  of  conducting  any  proceeding  for any  remedy to be taken by the Trustee or available to the Trustee or available to the Holders of the Bonds, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee hereunder provided: (1) such  direction  shall  not be in  conflict  with any  rule of law or with  this Indenture or expose the Trustee to personal liability,  or be unduly prejudicial to Holders not joining  therein,  and (2) the Trustee may take any other  action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.
Section 12.08    Suits or Actions by Holders;  Any Holder May Enforce Overdue Payment of His or Her Bond or  Interest  Thereon.  No Holder of any of the Bonds shall have any right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law for the execution of any trust  hereunder or for any other remedy  hereunder unless  there  shall have  occurred an Event of Default of which the Trustee has been notified or is deemed to have notice as provided in Section 11.08, and such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of the Event of Default on account of which such suit, action or proceeding is to be instituted, and  unless  also the  Holders  of not less than  twenty-five  percent  (25%) in principal amount of the Bonds then  Outstanding  shall have made written request of the Trustee  after the right to exercise  such powers or right of action,  as the case may be,  shall have  accrued,  and shall have  afforded  the  Trustee a

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

period of 60 days either to proceed to exercise the powers  hereinabove  granted or to  institute  such  action,  suit or  proceeding  in its or their name,  the Trustee shall have been  indemnified by Holders against the costs,  expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance  with such request,  and shall not have received an inconsistent direction from the Holders of not less than twenty-five percent  (25%) in  principal  amount  of the Bonds and the  Trustee  shall  have refused or neglected to comply with such request within a reasonable time. It is understood  and intended that no one or more Holders of the Bonds hereby secured shall have any right in any  manner  whatever  by the  action of such  Holder or Holders to affect,  disturb or prejudice the security of this  Indenture,  or to enforce  any right  hereunder  except in the manner  herein  provided;  that all proceedings at law or in equity shall be  instituted,  had and maintained in the manner  herein  provided and for the benefit of all Holders of such  Outstanding Bonds;  and that any individual  rights of action or other right given to one or more of such Holders by law are  restricted by this  Indenture to the rights and remedies herein provided.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee  reasonable  security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture,  the right of any Holder of a Bond to receive  payment of the principal of,  premium,  if any,  and interest on such Bond,  on or after the  respective  due dates  expressed in such Bond, or to institute  suit for the  enforcement  of any such payment on or after such  respective  dates,  shall not be impaired  or  affected  without the consent of such  Holder,  except  that no Holder of any such Bond shall have the right to institute any such suit, if and to the extent that the  institution  or prosecution  thereof or the entry of judgment  therein would,  under  applicable law, result in the surrender,  impairment,  waiver,  or loss of the lien of this Indenture.   
Section 12.09    Remedies  Not  Exclusive.  No  remedy by the terms of this Indenture  conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or the Holders of the Bonds is intended to be  exclusive  of any other remedy so conferred or reserved or to be exclusive of other remedies now or hereafter  existing at law or in equity or by statute,  and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative  and shall be in addition to any other remedy given hereunder to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Bonds or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.  Every such  right,  power  and  remedy  given  hereunder  or by law or in equity or by statute  may be  exercised  from  time to time  and as  often  as may be  deemed. expedient.  

Section 12.10    Effect of Abandonment of Proceedings on Default. In case any proceeding  taken by the  Trustee or the  Holders of the Bonds on account of any Event of Default shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason,  then and in every such case the  Authority,  the  Trustee  and the  Holders  shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder,  respectively,  and all rights,  remedies,  powers and duties of the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been taken.

Section 12.11    Interest on Overdue Amounts. To the extent permitted by law all amounts which are due and payable but which have not been so paid under this Indenture

Proof of the execution of any such  request,  direction,  consent  or  other  instrument  or of a  writing appointing  any such agent,  and of the holding or ownership of Bonds,  shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and shall be conclusive in favor of the Trustee  hereunder with regard to any action taken by it under such request, direction,  consent or other instrument or of writing appointing any such agent, if made in the following manner:

(a)the fact and date of the  execution  by any  person  of any such request,  direction,  consent or other instrument in writing may be proved in any reasonable manner which the Trustee deems sufficient;

(b) the  ownership of Bonds shall be proved by the books of registry kept under the provisions of this Indenture.

Any  request,  direction,  consent or vote of the Holder of any Bond shall bind and be  conclusive  upon the Holder of such Bond giving such request, direction or consent or casting  such vote and upon every  future  Holder of the same Bond in respect of  anything  done or suffered to be done by the Trustee or otherwise,  or by the Holders of other  Bonds,  in  pursuance  of such  request, direction,  consent or vote, and whether or not such future Holder has knowledge of or information as to such request, direction,  consent or vote; provided that any request, direction,  consent or vote of the Holder of a Bond required by any of the  provisions  hereof may be revoked by the  Holder  giving  such  request, direction,  consent  or vote or by a  subsequent  Holder if such  revocation  in writing  is  filed  with the  Trustee,  prior  to the  time  when  the  request, direction,  consent  or vote  of the  percentage  of the  Holders  of the  Bonds required by such provision shall have been given and action taken by the Trustee or otherwise, or by the Holders of other Bonds, under authority of such request, direction, consent or vote.

The Trustee or the Holders of not less than twenty percent (20%) in principal  amount of the Bonds then Outstanding may at any time call a meeting of the  Holders  of the Bonds for the  purpose of the consenting to, the approving, the requesting, or the directing by the Holders of the  Bonds  of any  action  required  to be  consented  to or  approved  by them hereunder or which they may request or direct  hereunder to be taken, or for the making by the Holders of any  appointments  they may make hereunder,  or for the purpose of taking any other action which the Holders may take hereunder,  or for any other purpose  concerning  the payment and security of the Bonds  hereunder. Every such meeting shall be held at such place in The City of New York, State of New York, as may be specified in the notice calling such meeting. Written notice of such meeting,  stating the place and time of the meeting and in general terms the  business to be  submitted,  shall be mailed to the Holders  whose names and addresses  then appear upon the books of  registry by the  Registrar  and Paying Agent or the Holders  calling such meeting,  not less than 20 days nor more than 60 days before such meeting.  Any meeting of Holders  shall,  however,  be valid without  notice if the  Holders of all Bonds  then  Outstanding  are  present in person or by proxy or if notice  is  waived  before or within 30 days  after the meeting by those not so present.

            Attendance  and  voting by  Holders at  meetings  thereof  may be in person or by proxy.  Holders of Bonds may,  by an  instrument  in writing  under their hands, appoint any person or persons, with full power of substitution,  as their proxy to attend and vote at any meeting for them.
            Persons  named  by the  Trustee,  or  elected  by the  Holders  of a majority in principal  amount of the Bonds  represented at the meeting in person or by proxy in the event the Trustee is not  represented at such meeting,  shall act as temporary  Chairman and temporary  Secretary of any meeting of Holders. A permanent Chairman and a permanent Secretary of such meeting shall be elected by the Holders of a majority in principal  amount of the Bonds  represented at such meeting in person or by proxy.  The  permanent  Chairman  of the  meeting  shall appoint  two (2)  Inspectors  of Votes  who shall  count all votes  cast at such meeting,  except votes on the election of Chairman and  Secretary as  aforesaid, and who shall make and file with the  Secretary  of the  meeting and the Trustee their verified report of all such votes cast at the meeting.
The  Holders  of not less  than the  principal  amount  of the Bonds required by the provisions hereof to consent to, approve,  request or direct any action to be taken at a meeting of Holders, or required by the provisions hereof to  make  any  appointments  to be  made at such  meeting,  or  required  by the provisions hereof to take any other action to be taken at such meeting,  must be present at such  meeting in person or by proxy in order to  constitute  a quorum for the transaction of such business.  Less than a quorum,  however,  shall have power  to  adjourn  the  meeting  from  time  to  time  without  notice  of such adjournment  other  than the   announcement  thereof  at the  meeting;  provided, however,  that if such  meeting is adjourned by less than a quorum for more than ten (10) days, notice of such adjournment shall be given by the Trustee at least five (5) days prior to the adjourned date of the meeting.

XIII-2

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

Bond or Bonds. Such persons and their proxies shall,  if  required,  produce  such  proof  of  personal  identity  as shall be satisfactory to the Secretary of the meeting.
All proxies  presented  at such  meeting  shall be  delivered to the Inspector of Votes and filed with the  Secretary of the meeting.  The right of a proxy for a Holder to attend the meeting and act and vote  thereat may be proved (subject to the Trustee's right to require  additional proof) by a written proxy executed by such Holder as aforesaid.
The   officers  or  nominees  of  the  Trustee  may  be  present  or represented at such meeting and take part therein,  but shall not be entitled to vote  thereat,  except for such  officers or nominees who are Holders or proxies for Holders (including the Trustee).
     The vote at any such  meeting of the  Holder of any Bond,  or his or her proxy,  entitled to vote thereat  shall be binding upon such Holder and upon every subsequent  Holder of such Bond (whether or not such subsequent Holder has notice thereof).
Section 13.03    Exclusion of Bonds Held by or for the Authority, the Company and of Bonds No Longer Deemed Outstanding Hereunder.  In determining whether the Holders of the requisite  aggregate  principal amount of Bonds have concurred in any demand,  request,  direction,  consent, vote or waiver under this Indenture, any  Bonds  which  are  owned  by or on  behalf  of or for  the  account  of the Authority,  the Company and, except for the purposes of Section 15.01, any Bonds which are deemed no longer  Outstanding  hereunder  shall be disregarded and not included for the purpose of any such determination,  and such Bonds shall not be entitled  to vote  upon,  consent to or concur in any  action  provided  in this Indenture, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such demand, request, direction, consent, vote or waiver  only  Bonds  which the  Trustee  knows are owned as  aforesaid  shall be disregarded. The Trustee may require each Holder of a Bond or Bonds, before such Holder's demand,  request,  direction,  consent,  vote or waiver shall be deemed effective, to reveal if the Bonds as to which such demand,  request,  direction, consent,  vote or waiver is made,  granted,  cast or given are  disqualified  as provided in this Section.

(i)to modify,  amend or supplement  the Indenture in such manner as to permit the  qualification  of the Bonds for deposit  with a  Securities Depository,  and, in connection therewith, if they so determine, to add to the  Indenture,  such other terms,  conditions  and  provisions  as may be required to permit such qualification.

No  Supplemental  Indenture  shall be  entered  into  unless  in the opinion of Bond Counsel which shall be delivered to the Trustee  (which  opinion may be combined  with the opinion  required by Section  14.04) the  execution of such  Supplemental  Indenture is permitted by the  foregoing  provisions of this Section and the provisions of such Supplemental  Indenture do not materially and adversely affect the rights of the Holders of the Bonds and the Trustee may rely on any such opinion.
Section 14.02    Amending  and  Supplementing  Indenture  with  Consent  of Holders.  With the consent of the Holders of a majority in  principal  amount of the Bonds then Outstanding,  the Authority and the Trustee from time to time and at any time may enter into a  Supplemental  Indenture  for the purpose of adding any  provisions  to,  or  changing  in  any  manner  or  eliminating  any of the provisions  of,  this  Indenture,  or  modifying  or  amending  the  rights  and obligations of the Authority  hereunder,  or modifying or amending in any manner the rights of the Holders;  provided that,  without the specific  consent of the Holders of all Bonds Outstanding which would be affected thereby no Supplemental Indenture  amending or supplementing the provisions hereof shall: (a) change the fixed  maturity  date for the payment of the principal of any Bond, or the dates for the payment of interest  thereon or the terms of the purchase or  redemption thereof,  or reduce  the  principal  amount of any Bond or the rate of  interest thereon or the method of  calculating  the same except as otherwise  provided in this Indenture;  or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Bonds, the Holders of which  are  required  to  consent  to any  Supplemental  Indenture  amending  or supplementing  the  provisions  of this  Indenture;  or (c) give to any Bond any preference over any other Bond secured hereby;  or (d) authorize the creation of any pledge of payments under the Participation  Agreement or Note Payments prior or superior to the pledge of a lien and charge thereon  assigned  herein for the payment of the Bonds;  or (e) effect any change in the  purchase  or  redemption provisions  relating to the Bonds;  or (f)  deprive any Holders in any  material respect of the security afforded by this Indenture.  A modification or amendment of the  provisions  of  Article IX hereof  with  respect to the Bond Fund or any other Funds or Accounts  established thereby shall not be deemed a change in the terms of payment;  provided that no such modification or amendment shall, except upon the  consent of the  Holders  of all Bonds  Outstanding  affected  thereby, reduce the amount or amounts required to be deposited in the Bond Fund.  Nothing in this paragraph contained, however, shall be construed as making necessary the approval  of  the  Holders  of  the  execution  of  any  Supplemental  Indenture authorized by the provisions of Section 14.01. 

The proof of the giving of any  consent by any  Holder  required  by this Section and of the holding of the Bonds for the purpose of giving  consents shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII. It shall not be necessary that the consent of the Holders approve 

XIV-2

Exhibit 4.2.8.1

the particular form of wording of the proposed supplemental amendment or supplement, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed  amendment or supplement. After the  Holders of the  required  percentage  of Bonds shall have filed their consents to the amending or supplementing  hereof pursuant to this Section,  the Authority shall mail a copy of notice of such consent,  postage prepaid, to each Holder at his or her address as it appears upon the books of registry and to the Trustee.  Nothing in this paragraph  contained,  however,  shall be construed as requiring  the  giving  of  notice  of any  amending  or  supplementing  of this Indenture  authorized by this Section.  A record of the consents  shall be filed with the  Trustee,  and shall be proof of the matters  therein  stated until the contrary is proved.  No action or  proceeding  to set aside or  invalidate  such Supplemental  Indenture  or any of the  proceedings  for its  adoption  shall be instituted  or maintained  unless such action or proceeding is commenced  within sixty (60) days after the mailing of the notice required by this paragraph.
Notwithstanding  anything in this  Indenture  to the  contrary,  the consent of the Holders of any Bonds or a portion thereof purchased subsequent to a Change in the  Interest  Rate Mode  shall be deemed  given  with  respect to a supplemental  Indenture  if the  Remarketing  Agent for the  Bonds so  purchased consents in writing thereto and any  modification or amendment  effected thereby is  disclosed  in the  official  statement  or other  public  offering  document pursuant to which such Bonds or a portion thereof are remarketed.
Section 14.03    Notation upon Bonds; New Bonds Issued upon Amendments.  The Bonds delivered after the effective date of any action taken as provided in this Article,  if any, may and shall if required by the Trustee bear a notation as to such action,  by endorsement or otherwise and in form approved by the Authority.
