Mortgage, as heretofore supplemented and amended.

            WHEREAS pursuant to a written request of the Company made in
accordance with Section 103 of the Original Mortgage, Francis M. Pitt (then
Individual Trustee under the Mortgage, as supplemented) ceased to be a trustee
thereunder on July 23, 1969, and all of his powers as Individual Trustee have
devolved upon the Trustee and its successors alone; and

            WHEREAS by the Original Mortgage the Company covenanted that it
would execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as
might be necessary or proper to carry out more effectually the purposes of the
Original Mortgage and to make subject to the lien of the Original Mortgage any
property thereafter acquired intended to be subject to the lien thereof; and

            WHEREAS the Company has heretofore executed and delivered, in
addition to the Original Mortgage, the indentures supplemental thereto, and has
issued the Series of Bonds, set forth in Exhibit A hereto (the Mortgage, as
supplemented and amended by the First through Thirty-third Supplemental
Indentures being herein sometimes called the "Mortgage"); and

            WHEREAS the Original Mortgage and the First through Thirty-second
Supplemental Indentures have been appropriately filed or recorded in various
official records in the States of Washington, California, Idaho, Montana and
Oregon, as set forth in the First through Thirty-third Supplemental Indentures
and the Instrument of Further Assurance, dated December 15, 2001, hereinafter
referred to; and

            WHEREAS the Thirty-third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 1,
2004 has been appropriately filed or recorded in the various official records in
the States of Washington, California, Idaho, Montana and Oregon set forth in
Exhibit B hereto; and

            WHEREAS for the purpose of confirming or perfecting the lien of the
Mortgage on certain of its properties, the Company has heretofore executed and
delivered a Short Form Mortgage and Security Agreement, in multiple counterparts
dated as of various dates in 1992, and such instrument has been appropriately
filed or recorded in the various official records in the States of California,
Montana and Oregon; and

                                       2

<PAGE>

            WHEREAS for the purpose of confirming or perfecting the lien of the
Mortgage on certain of its properties, the Company has heretofore executed and
delivered an Instrument of Further Assurance dated as of December 15, 2001, and
such instrument has been appropriately filed or recorded in the various official
records in the States of Washington, California, Idaho, Montana and Oregon; and

            WHEREAS in addition to the property described in the Mortgage the
Company has acquired certain other property, rights and interests in property;
and

            WHEREAS Section 8 of the Original Mortgage provides that the form of
each Series of Bonds (other than the First Series) issued thereunder and of the
coupons to be attached to coupon Bonds of such Series shall be established by
Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company; that the form of such
Series, as established by said Board of Directors, shall specify the descriptive
title of the Bonds and various other terms thereof; and that such Series may
also contain such provisions not inconsistent with the provisions of the
Mortgage as the Board of Directors may, in its discretion, cause to be inserted
therein expressing or referring to the terms and conditions upon which such
Bonds are to be issued and/or secured under the Mortgage; and

            WHEREAS Section 120 of the Original Mortgage provides, among other
things, that any power, privilege or right expressly or impliedly reserved to or
in any way conferred upon the Company by any provision of the Mortgage, whether
such power, privilege or right is in any way restricted or is unrestricted, may
be in whole or in part waived or surrendered or subjected to any restriction if
at the time unrestricted or to additional restriction if already restricted, and
the Company may enter into any further covenants, limitations or restrictions
for the benefit of any one or more Series of Bonds issued thereunder, or the
Company may cure any ambiguity contained therein, or in any supplemental
indenture, by an instrument in writing executed and acknowledged by the Company
in such manner as would be necessary to entitle a conveyance of real estate to
record in all of the states in which any property at the time subject to the
lien of the Mortgage shall be situated; and

            WHEREAS the Company now desires to create a new Series of Bonds; and

            WHEREAS the execution and delivery by the Company of this
Thirty-fourth Supplemental Indenture and the terms of the Bonds of the
Thirty-second Series, hereinafter referred to, have been duly authorized by the
Board of Directors of the Company by appropriate Resolutions of said Board of
Directors; and all things necessary to make this Thirty-fourth Supplemental
Indenture a valid, binding and legal instrument have been performed;

                  redeemed and

                  semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve
                  30-day months) at a discount rate equal to the Treasury Yield

            Mortgage prior to the redemption date, then as of the third business
            day prior to the earlier of (x) the date notice of such redemption

                  utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with
                  customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of
                  corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the

            (III) (a) At the option of the registered owner, any Bonds of the
      Thirty-second Series, upon surrender thereof for cancellation at the
      office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of
      New York, shall be exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
      Bonds of the same Series of other authorized denominations.

            The Bonds of the Thirty-second Series shall be transferable, upon
the surrender thereof for cancellation, together with a written instrument of
transfer in form approved by the registrar duly executed by the registered owner
or by his duly authorized attorney, at the office or agency of the Company in
the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.

            Upon any exchange or transfer of Bonds of the Thirty-second Series,
the Company may make a charge therefor sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or
taxes or other governmental charge, as provided in Section 12 of the Mortgage,
but the Company hereby waives any right to make a charge in addition thereto or
any exchange or transfer of Bonds of the Thirty-second Series; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to make any transfer or exchange
of any Bonds of the Thirty-second Series for a period of 10 days next preceding
any selection of such Bonds for redemption, nor shall it be required to make
transfers or exchange of any Bonds of the Thirty-second Series which shall have
been selected for redemption in whole or in part or as to which the Company
shall have received a notice for the redemption thereof in whole or in part at
the option of the registered owner.

                  (b)   The Bonds of the Thirty-second Series are initially to
            be issued in global form, registered in the name of Cede & Co., as
            nominee for The Depository Trust Company (the "Depositary").
            Notwithstanding the provisions of subdivision (a) above, such Bonds
            shall not be transferable, nor shall any purported transfer be
            registered, except as follows:

                        (i)   such Bonds may be transferred in whole, and
                  appropriate registration of transfer effected, to the
                  Depositary, or by the Depositary to another nominee thereof,
                  or by any nominee of the Depositary to any other

                  nominee thereof, or by the Depositary or any nominee thereof
                  to any successor securities depositary or any nominee thereof;

                        (ii)  such Bonds may be transferred in whole, and
                  appropriate registration of transfer effected, to the
                  beneficial holders thereof, and thereafter shall be
                  transferable, if:

                              (A)   The Depositary, or any successor securities
                        depositary, shall have notified the Company and the
                        Trustee that (I) it is unwilling or unable to continue
                        to act as securities depositary with respect to such
                        Bonds or (II) it is no longer a clearing agency
                        registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
                        amended, and, in either case, the Trustee shall not have
                        been notified by the Company within one hundred twenty
                        (120) days of the identity of a successor securities
                        depositary with respect to such Bonds; or

                              (B)   the Company shall have delivered to the
                        Trustee a written order to the effect that such Bonds
                        shall be so transferable on and after a date specified
                        therein.

            The Bonds of the Thirty-second Series, when in global form, shall
bear a legend as to such global form and the foregoing restrictions on transfer
substantially as set forth below:

            This global bond is held by Cede & Co., as nominee for The
            Depository Trust Company (the "Depositary") for the benefit of the
            beneficial owners hereof. This bond may not be transferred, nor may
            any purported transfer be registered, except that (i) this bond may
            be transferred in whole, and appropriate registration of transfer
            effected, if such transfer is by Cede & Co., as nominee for the
            Depositary, to the Depositary, or by the Depositary to another
            nominee thereof, or by any nominee of the Depositary to any other
            nominee thereof, or by the Depositary or any nominee thereof to any
            successor Bonds depositary or any nominee thereof; and (ii) this
            bond may be transferred, and appropriate registration of transfer
            effected, to the beneficial holders hereof, and thereafter shall be
            transferable without restrictions (except as provided in the
            preceding paragraph) if: (A) the Depositary, or any successor
            securities depositary, shall have notified the Company and the
            Trustee that (I) it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as
            securities depositary with respect to the Bonds or (II) it is no
            longer a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange
            Act of 1934, as amended, and, in either case, the Trustee shall not
            have been notified by the Company within one hundred twenty (120)
            days of the identity of a successor securities depositary with
            respect to the Bonds; or (B) the Company shall have delivered to the
            Trustee a written order to the effect that the Bonds shall be so
            transferable on and after a date specified therein.

                                       9

            (IV)  For all purposes of this Thirty-fourth Supplemental Indenture,
      except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise
      requires, the terms and with respect to the Bonds of the Thirty-second
      Series listed below shall have the meanings specified:

            "Interest Payment Date" means June 1 and December 1 in each year,
      commencing June 1, 2005.

            "Maturity" means the date on which the principal of the Bonds of the
      Thirty-second Series becomes due and payable, whether at the Stated
      Maturity Date, upon redemption or acceleration, or otherwise.

            "Record Date", with respect to any Interest Payment Date, means the
      May 15 or November 15, as the case may be, next preceding such Interest
      Payment Date.

            "Stated Maturity Date" means December 1, 2019.

            (V)   Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 106 of the Original
      Mortgage, the Company shall not cause any Bonds of the Thirty-second
      Series, or any portion of the principal amount thereof, to be deemed to
      have been paid as provided in such Section and its obligations in respect
      thereof to be deemed to be satisfied and discharged prior to the Maturity
      thereof unless the Company shall deliver to the Trustee either:

                  (a)   an instrument wherein the Company, notwithstanding the
            effect of Section 106 of the Original Mortgage in respect of such
            Bonds, shall assume the obligation (which shall be absolute and
            unconditional) to irrevocably deposit with the Trustee such
            additional sums of money, if any, or additional government
            obligations (meeting the requirements of Section 106), if any, or
            any combination thereof, at such time or times, as shall be
            necessary, together with the money and/or government obligations
            theretofore so deposited, to pay when due the principal of and
            premium, if any, and interest due and to become due on such Bonds or
            portions thereof, all in accordance with and subject to the
            provisions of Section 106; provided, however, that such instrument
            may state that the obligation of the Company to make additional
            deposits as aforesaid shall be subject to the delivery to the
            Company by the Trustee of a notice asserting the deficiency
            accompanied by an opinion of an independent accountant showing the
            calculation thereof (which opinion shall be obtained at the expense
            of the Company); or

                  (b)   an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holders of
            such Bonds, or portions of the principal amount thereof, will not
            recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax
            purposes as a result of the satisfaction and discharge of the
            Company's indebtedness in respect thereof and will be subject to
            United States federal income tax on the same amounts, at the same
            times and in the same manner as if such satisfaction and discharge
            had not been effected.

            (VI)  The Bonds of the Thirty-second Series shall have such further
      terms as are set forth in Exhibit D hereto. If there shall be a conflict
      between the terms of the form of

                                       10

<PAGE>

      bond and the provisions of the Mortgage, the provisions of the Mortgage
      shall control to the extent permitted by law.

            (VII)  Prior, and as a condition, to the authentication and delivery
      by the Trustee of the Bonds of the Thirty-second Series, the Company shall
      have delivered to the Trustee an endorsement to the policy of title
      insurance on the Mortgaged and Pledged Property held by the Trustee
      increasing the face amount of such policy by $90,000,000 to $90,000,000.
      The Trustee shall hold such policy, as so endorsed, as part of the
      Mortgaged and Pledged Property, for the benefit of the holders from time
      to time of the Bonds Outstanding under the Mortgage. The proceeds of such
      insurance shall be applied as provided in clause (3) or (4) of Section 61
      of the Original Mortgage or, if all Bonds shall have been declared
      immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 65 of the Original
      Mortgage following the occurrence of a Completed Default, as provided in
      clauses second and third of Section 75 of the Original Mortgage.

            (VIII) Upon the delivery of this Thirty-fourth Supplemental
      Indenture, Bonds of the Thirty-second Series in an aggregate principal
      amount initially not to exceed $90,000,000 are to be issued and will be
      Outstanding, in addition to $693,500,000 aggregate principal amount of
      Bonds of prior Series Outstanding at the date of delivery of this
      Thirty-fourth Supplemental Indenture.

                                   ARTICLE II

                              PROSPECTIVE AMENDMENT

            SECTION 1. The owners of the Bonds of the Thirty-second Series shall
be deemed to have consented to the amendment of Section 28 of the Original
Mortgage to add at the end thereof a new paragraph reading as follows:

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Opinion of Counsel delivered
      pursuant to subdivision (7) of this Section 28, or pursuant to any other
      provision of this Indenture by reference to this Section 28, may, at the
      election of the Company, omit any or all of the statements contained in
      clause (a) of subdivision (7) if there shall have been delivered to the
      Trustee a policy of title insurance (or endorsement thereto) issued by a
      nationally recognized title insurance company, in an amount not less than
      twenty-eight percent (28%)(1) of the cost or fair value to the Company
      (whichever is less) of the Property Additions made the basis of such
      application, insuring, in customary terms, against risk of loss sustained
      or incurred by the Trustee by reason of any circumstances or conditions by
      virtue of which the statements omitted from clause (a) of such Opinion of
      Counsel would not have been accurate if made.

-----------------
(1)   The owners of the Bonds of the Thirty-second Series shall be deemed to
      have consented to the amendment contained in this Section 1 of Article II,
      either with the percentage shown above or with any higher percentage.

                                  ARTICLE III

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

recitals are made by the Company solely. Each and every term and condition
contained in Article XVI of the Original Mortgage, shall apply to and form part

aforesaid, bind and inure to the respective benefits of the respective
successors and assigns of such parties, whether so expressed or not.

            SECTION 4. Nothing in this Thirty-fourth Supplemental Indenture,
expressed or implied, is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or to
give to, any person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto and the

remedy or claim under or by reason of this Thirty-fourth Supplemental Indenture
or any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or agreement hereof, and all
the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this
Thirty-fourth Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Company
shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto, and of the
holders of the Bonds and of the coupons Outstanding under the Mortgage.

            SECTION 5. This Thirty-fourth Supplemental Indenture shall be
executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of
which shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

            SECTION 6. The titles of the several Articles of this Thirty-fourth
Supplemental Indenture shall not be deemed to be any part thereof.

            AVISTA CORPORATION, a corporation of the State of Washington
(hereinafter called the Company), for value received, hereby promises to pay to

, or registered assigns, on _______________________,

                                                                         DOLLARS

and to pay the registered owner hereof interest thereon from November 23, 2004
semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 in each year (each such date
being hereinafter called an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing June 1, 2005
and at Maturity (as hereinafter defined), at the rate of five and forty-five one
hundredths per centum (5.45%) per annum computed on the basis of a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months, until the Company's obligation with respect
to the payment of such principal shall have been discharged. The principal of
and premium, if any, and interest on this bond payable at Maturity shall be
payable upon presentation hereof at the office or agency of the Company in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in such coin or currency of the
United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public
and private debts. The interest on this bond (other than interest payable at
Maturity) shall be paid by check, in the similar coin or currency, mailed to the
registered owner hereof as of the close of business on the May 15 or November
15, as the case may be, next preceding each Interest Payment Date (each such
date being herein called a "Record Date"); provided, however, that if such
registered owner shall be a securities depositary, such payment shall be made by
such other means in lieu of check as shall be agreed upon by the Company, the
Trustee and such registered owner. Interest payable at Maturity shall be paid to
the person to whom principal shall be paid. As used herein, the term "Maturity"
shall mean the date on which

the principal of this bond becomes due and payable, whether at stated maturity,
upon redemption or acceleration, or otherwise.

            This bond is one of an issue of bonds of the Company issuable in
Series and is one of a series known as its First Mortgage Bonds, 5.45% Series
due 2019, all bonds of all such Series being issued and issuable under and
equally secured (except insofar as any sinking or other fund, established in
accordance with the provisions of the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may afford
additional security for the bonds of any particular series) by a Mortgage and
Deed of Trust, dated as of June 1, 1939, executed by the Company (formerly known
as The Washington Water Power Company) to City Bank Farmers Trust Company and
Ralph E. Morton, as Trustees (Citibank, N.A., successor Trustee to both said
Trustees). Such mortgage and deed of trust has been amended and supplemented by
various supplemental indentures, including the Thirty-fourth Supplemental
Indenture, Dated as of November 1, 2004 (the "Thirty-fourth Supplemental
Indenture") and, as so amended and supplemented, is herein called the
"Mortgage". Reference is made to the Mortgage for a description of the property
mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the rights of the
holders of the bonds and of the Trustee in respect thereof, the duties and
immunities of the Trustee and the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are
and are to be secured and the circumstances under which additional bonds may be
issued. If there shall be a conflict between the terms of this bond and the
provisions of the Mortgage, the provisions of the Mortgage shall control to the
extent permitted by law. The holder of this bond, by its acceptance hereof,
shall be deemed to have consented and agreed to all of the terms and provisions
of the Mortgage and, further, in the event that such holder shall not be the
sole beneficial owner of this bond, shall be deemed to have agreed to use all
commercially reasonable efforts to cause all direct and indirect beneficial
owners of this bond to have knowledge of the terms and provisions of the
Mortgage and of this bond and to comply therewith, including particularly, but
without limitation, any provisions or restrictions in the Mortgage regarding the
transfer or exchange of such beneficial interests and any legend set forth on
this bond.

            The Mortgage may be modified or altered by affirmative vote of the
holders of at least 60% in principal amount of the bonds outstanding under the
Mortgage, considered as one class, or, if the rights of one or more, but less
than all, series of Bonds then outstanding are to be affected, then such
modification or alteration may be effected with the affirmative vote only of 60%
in principal amount of the bonds outstanding of the series so to be affected,
considered as one class, and, furthermore, for limited purposes, the Mortgage
may be modified or altered without any consent or other action of holders of any
series of bonds. No modification or alteration shall, however, permit an
extension of the Maturity of the principal of, or interest on, this bond or a
reduction in such principal or the rate of interest hereon or any other
modification in the terms of payment of such principal or interest or the
creation of any lien equal or prior to the lien of the Mortgage or deprive the
holder of a lien on the mortgaged and pledged property without the consent of
the holder hereof.

            The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to the
stated maturity date on the conditions, in the manner and at the time set forth
in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a completed default as in the Mortgage
provided.

            As provided in the Mortgage and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, this bond or any portion of the principal amount hereof will
be deemed to have been paid if there has been irrevocably deposited with the
Trustee moneys or direct obligations of or obligations guaranteed by the United
States of America, the principal of and interest on which when due, and without
regard to any reinvestment thereof, will provide moneys which, together with
moneys so deposited, will be sufficient to pay when due the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on this bond when due.

            The Mortgage contains terms, provisions and conditions relating to
the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into, and the conveyance or
other transfer, or lease, of assets to, another Corporation and to the
assumption by such other Corporation, in certain circumstances, of all of the
obligations of the Company under the Mortgage and on the Bonds secured thereby.

            In the manner prescribed in the Mortgage, this bond is transferable
by the registered owner hereof in person, or by his duly authorized attorney, at
the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York, upon surrender and cancellation of this bond, together with a written
instrument of transfer whenever required by the Company duly executed by the
registered owner or by its duly authorized attorney, and, thereupon, a new fully
registered bond of the same Series for a like principal amount will be issued to
the transferee in exchange herefor as provided in the Mortgage. The Company and
the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this bond is registered
as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment and for all
other purposes.

            In the manner prescribed in the Mortgage, any bonds of this series,
upon surrender thereof for cancellation at the office or agency of the Company
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, are exchangeable for a like
aggregate principal amount of bonds of the same series of other authorized
denominations.

            The Bonds of this Series shall be redeemable in whole at any time or
in part from time to time, at the option of the Company, upon notice mailed as
provided in Section 52 of the Mortgage, at the option of the Company at a
redemption price equal to the greater of

                  (a)   100% of the principal amount of the bonds being redeemed
                        and

                  (b)   the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled
            payments of principal of and interest on the bonds being redeemed
            discounted to the date of redemption on a semiannual basis (assuming
            a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at a discount
            rate equal to the Treasury Yield (as hereinafter defined) plus 20
            basis points,

plus, in the case of either (i) or (ii) above, whichever is applicable, accrued
interest on such Bonds to the date of redemption.
