     SIERRA PACIFIC POWER COMPANY, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the
State of Nevada (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation under
the Indenture referred to below), for value received, hereby promises to pay to THE BANK OF NEW
YORK, as trustee (the “Series 2001 Bond Trustee”) under the Indenture of Trust dated as of March 1,
2001 (the “Series 2001 Indenture”) between the Series 2001 Bond Trustee and Washoe County, Nevada
(the “Issuer”), the principal sum of EIGHTY MILLION DOLLARS, or such lesser amount as set forth
herein.

     Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the
Indenture (as defined below), unless otherwise noted. Section headings in this Note are for
convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

     1. Principal. The principal of this Note shall be payable by the Company in whole or in
installments on such date or dates as the Company has any principal repayment or purchase price
obligations under Sections 4.2(a) or (b) of the Financing Agreement dated as of March 1, 2001 (the
“Financing Agreement”) between the Company and the Issuer in respect of the Issuer’s Water
Facilities Refunding Revenue Bonds (Sierra Pacific Power Company Project), Series 2001 (the “Series
2001 Bonds”), or in whole on the Stated Maturity specified above (if not previously paid or deemed
paid).

 

 

     The obligation of the Company to make any payment of principal on this Note shall be fully or
partially, as the case may be, deemed to have been paid or otherwise satisfied or discharged to the
extent that the Company has made a payment under Section 4.2(a) of the Financing Agreement in
respect of the principal of the Series 2001 Bonds or has made a payment or is deemed to have made a
payment under Section 4.2(b) of the Financing Agreement in respect of the purchase price of Series
2001 Bonds tendered for purchase on July 1, 2009. If the Company shall fail to make any payment in
respect of principal or purchase price of the Series 2001 Bonds as required under Sections 4.2(a)
or (b) of the Financing Agreement, it shall be deemed to be a default, for purposes of Section
10.01(b) of the Indenture, in the payment of an amount of principal of this Note equal to the
amount of such unpaid principal or purchase price in respect of the Series 2001 Bonds (but, in no
event, shall such principal amount payable exceed the aggregate principal amount of this Note).

     2. Interest. This Note shall bear interest at such rate per annum as shall cause the amount
of interest on this Note to be equal to the amount in respect of interest and premium, if any,
payable by the Company pursuant to the Financing Agreement in respect of the Term Rate Period (as
defined in the Series 2001 Indenture) effective on May 3, 2004 and ending on and including June 30,
2009 (the “Current Term Rate Period”). The interest on this Note shall be payable on the same date
or dates as payment in respect of such interest and premium, if any, are payable by the Company
from time to time under the Financing Agreement, until the maturity of this Note (whether at the
Stated Maturity as specified above or upon redemption or acceleration).

     The amounts payable by the Company from time to time under the Financing Agreement in respect
of interest and premium, if any, on the Series 2001 Bonds, the basis on which such amounts are
computed and the dates on which such amounts are payable are set forth in the Financing Agreement
and the Series 2001 Indenture. The obligation of the Company to make any payment of interest on
this Note shall be fully or partially, as the case may be, deemed to have been paid or otherwise
satisfied and discharged to the extent that the Company has made the payments in respect of
interest and premium, if any, on the Series 2001 Bonds required under Section 4.2(a) of the
Financing Agreement. If the Company shall fail to make any payment in respect of interest or
premium, if any, on the Series 2001 Bonds as required under Section 4.2(a) of the Financing
Agreement, it shall be deemed to be a default, for purposes of Section 10.01(a) of the Indenture,
in the payment of an amount of interest on this Note equal to the amount of such unpaid amounts in
respect of the Series 2001 Bonds.

     The amount of interest that shall be payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the
maturity of this Note pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture shall be the amount of accrued and
unpaid interest and premium, if any, on the Series 2001 Bonds to the date of such declaration.

     3. Terms of Issuance. This Note is issued to the Series 2001 Bond Trustee by the Company to
secure the Company’s payment obligations pursuant to Sections 4.2(a) and (b) of the Financing
Agreement in respect of the Current Term Rate Period, in connection with the remarketing of the
Series 2001 Bonds on May 3, 2004 and the purchase and reoffering thereof by Lehman Brothers, Inc.
(“Lehman”) pursuant to the Bond Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 20, 2004 (the “Bond Purchase
Agreement”) among the Company and Lehman, as remarketing agent and as underwriter. This Note shall
be held by the Series 2001 Bond Trustee subject to the terms of the Delivery Agreement dated as of
May 3, 2004 between the Company and the Series 2001 Bond Trustee.

     4. Paying Agent and Security Registrar. The Corporate Trust Office of The Bank of New York
in New York, New York shall be the place at which, with respect to this Note and the Indenture, as
applicable, (i) the principal of and interest shall be payable, (ii) registration of transfer may
be effected,

2

 

(iii) exchanges may be effected and (iv) notices and demands to or upon the Company may be
served; and The Bank of New York shall be the Security Registrar for this Note; provided,
however, that the Company reserves the right to change, by one or more Officer’s
Certificates, with the consent of the Series 2001 Bond Trustee, any such place or the Security
Registrar; and provided, further, that the Company reserves the right to designate, by one or more
Officer’s Certificates, its principal office in Reno, Nevada as any such place or itself as the
Security Registrar; provided, however, that there shall be only a single Security
Registrar for this Note. The principal of this Note shall be payable without the presentment or
surrender thereof.

     5. Indenture; Security. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the
Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and issuable in one or more series under and
equally secured by a General and Refunding Mortgage Indenture, dated as of May 1, 2001 (such
Indenture as originally executed and delivered and as supplemented or amended from time to time
thereafter, together with any constituent instruments establishing the terms of particular
Securities, being herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York, as
trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the
Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for
a description of the property mortgaged, pledged and held in trust, the nature and extent of the
security and the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities of the Company,
the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities thereunder and of the terms and conditions upon which
the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered and secured. The acceptance of this
Note shall be deemed to constitute the consent and agreement by the Holder hereof to all of the
terms and provisions of the Indenture. This Note is one of the series designated above.

     6. Sinking Fund; Optional Redemption. The Notes of this series will not be entitled to the
benefit of any sinking fund or optional redemption provisions.

     7. Event of Default. If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of this Note may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the
effect provided in the Indenture and herein.

     8. Supplemental Indentures. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein
provided, the Trustee to enter into one or more supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding
any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, the Indenture
with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of all series then Outstanding under the Indenture, considered as one class;
provided, however, that if there shall be Securities of more than one series
Outstanding under the Indenture and if a proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the
rights of the Holders of Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such series, then the
consent only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of all series so directly affected, considered as one class, shall be required; and
provided, further, that if the Securities of any series shall have been issued in
more than one Tranche and if the proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the rights
of the Holders of Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such Tranches, then the consent
only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
all Tranches so directly affected, considered as one class, shall be required; and
provided, further, that the Indenture permits the Trustee to enter into one or more
supplemental indentures for limited purposes without the consent of any Holders of Securities.

     9. Consents and Waivers. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all
Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder
of this Note shall

3

 

be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any
Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof,
whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

     10. Person Deemed Owners. The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this Note shall be registered upon the Security
Register for the Notes of this series as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of
receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and interest on this Note and for all other
purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be
affected by any notice to the contrary; and all such payments so made to such registered owner or
upon his order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon this Note
to the extent of the sum or sums paid.

     11. Satisfaction and Discharge. The Trustee may conclusively presume that the obligation of
the Company to pay the principal of and interest on this Note, when such payment is required to be
made as provided herein, shall have been fully satisfied and discharged unless and until it shall
have received a written notice from the Series 2001 Bond Trustee, signed by an authorized officer
of the Series 2001 Bond Trustee, stating that the payment in respect of principal or purchase price
of or interest or premium, if any, on the Series 2001 Bonds has not been fully paid or provided for
when due under the terms of the Financing Agreement and specifying the amount of funds required to
make such payment.

     12. Transfer. This Note is not transferable except to a successor to the Series 2001 Bond
Trustee under the Series 2001 Indenture. Before any transfer of this Note by the registered holder
or his or its legal representative will be recognized or given effect by the Company or the
Trustee, the registered holder shall note the amounts of reductions, if any, in the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of the Series 2001 Bonds, and shall notify the Company and the Trustee
of the name and address of the transferee and shall afford the Company and the Trustee the
opportunity of verifying the notation as to such reductions.

     13. No Recourse. No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained
in the Indenture or in any indenture supplemental thereto, or in any Note or coupon thereby
secured, or because of any indebtedness thereby secured, shall be had against any incorporator, or
against any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director, as such, of the Company or
any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or of any successor corporation
under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment
or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that
the Indenture, any indenture supplemental thereto and the obligations thereby secured, are solely
corporate obligations, and that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, or be incurred
by, such incorporators, stockholders, officers or directors, as such, of the Company or of any
successor corporation, or any of them, because of the incurring of the indebtedness thereby
authorized, or under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements contained in
the Indenture or in any indenture supplemental thereto or in any of the Notes or coupons thereby
secured, or implied therefrom.

     14. Business Day. For the purposes of this Note, “Business Day” shall mean any day that is
not a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets are open
for business, including dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars, in New York.

          This Restricted Stock Grant Notice (this “Notice”) is delivered by Ascential Software

the Grantee as follows:

	1.  	Subject to Second Amended and Restated 1994 Stock Option and Award Plan. The
Company, pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated 1994 Stock Option and Award Plan, as
amended (the “Plan”), which is incorporated herein by reference, and subject to the terms and
conditions thereof, hereby grants to the Grantee the above described Restricted Stock Award,
as a separate incentive in connection with his employment and not in lieu of any salary or
other compensation for his services. As a condition to the receipt of this Restricted Stock
Award, the Grantee shall pay to the Company, in the legal

1

 

	   	tender of the United States or its equivalent, the par value with respect to the aggregate
amount of Shares, as soon as practicable following the date hereof. Except as set forth in
Section 7, capitalized terms that are used but not defined herein shall have the meaning
specified in the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the award described in Section 6(b)
is not granted pursuant to the Plan.
	 
	2.  	Restricted Period. From the Grant Date until the date on which the restrictions
applicable to Shares shall lapse (each such period, a “Restricted Period”) as indicated above,
the Grantee may not sell, assign, transfer, donate, pledge or otherwise dispose of Shares
subject to a Restricted Period.
	 
	3.  	Termination of Employment. Except as set forth in Section 6 hereof, all Shares held
by the Grantee still subject to a Restricted Period shall be forfeited upon the Grantee’s
Termination of Employment (as defined in Section 7) for any reason. Upon such forfeiture (or

Grantee the par value amount (without interest) paid by the Grantee in respect of the
forfeited Shares.
	 
	4.  	Voting; Dividends. During the Restricted Period, the Grantee shall have the right to
vote the Shares and to receive, free of restrictions, any dividends or distributions paid on
such Shares.
	 
	5.  	Withholding and Other Taxes. The Grantee may be required to make arrangements
satisfactory to the Company to enable it to satisfy withholding taxes and other tax
obligations relating to the Shares and any amounts or property paid with respect thereto (or,
if applicable, with respect to the payments described in Section 6(b)). Payment of such
requirements may be made, in the discretion of the Committee, (i) in cash, (ii) by delivery of
shares of common stock of the Company registered in the name of the Grantee (for at least six
months if acquired from the Company) having a Fair Market Value at the time the Grantee
becomes subject to income tax equal to the minimum necessary amount of tax to be withheld,
(iii) by the Company retaining or not issuing such number of Shares subject to the Award as
have a Fair Market Value at the time the Grantee becomes subject to income tax equal to the
minimum necessary amount of tax to be withheld (or, in the case of the payments described in
Section 6(b), by withholding such amount in cash) or (iv) any combination of (i), (ii) and
(iii) above.
	 
	6.  	Conversion of Restricted Stock Award; Acceleration Events.

	 	(a)  	Except as set forth in Section 6(b), in the event of a Change in Control (as
defined in Section 7), the vesting schedule for any unvested portion of the Shares (or
such other securities as may be subject to the Restricted Stock Award pursuant to the
adjustment of the award in accordance with Section 4.3 of the Plan) shall
automatically be amended so that such unvested Shares shall no longer be subject to
the achievement of the Performance Targets and shall instead become vested in four
equal installments on each of the six month, twelve month, eighteen month and
twenty-four month anniversaries of the Change in Control, subject to the Grantee’s
continued employment as of each such anniversary date. All such unvested Shares
shall become immediately vested upon the occurrence of a Qualifying Termination
following a Change in Control or upon the Grantee’s termination due to death or
Disability. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control pursuant to which the holders
of the Company’s common stock become entitled to receive cash in respect of such
common stock, any remaining unvested Shares shall be cancelled and replaced with the
award described in Section 6(b).

2

 

	 	(b)  	Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control pursuant to which the holders of
the Company’s common stock become entitled to receive cash in respect of such common
stock, any unvested portion of the Restricted Stock Award shall automatically be
cancelled and the Company shall automatically issue the Grantee, in exchange for such
cancelled portion of the Restricted Stock Award, a retention award (the “Retention
Award”) with the following terms and conditions:

	 	(i)  	The aggregate potential value (the “Aggregate Value”) of the
Retention Award shall equal the product of (i) the number of unvested Shares
as of the date of the Change in Control and (ii) the amount of cash which a
holder of unrestricted Company common stock would be entitled to receive in
respect of such common stock pursuant to the Change in Control.
	 
	 	(ii)  	The Grantee shall earn and, except as set forth below,
immediately be paid (net of applicable withholding) the following portions of
the Retention Award if the Grantee remains employed by the Company or an
Affiliate (including any entity which becomes an Affiliate on or following the
Change in Control) as of the following dates:

	 	(1)  	25% of the Aggregate Value on the six (6)
month anniversary of the Change in Control
	 
	 	(2)  	25% of the Aggregate Value on the one (1)
year anniversary of the Change in Control
	 
	 	(3)  	25% of the Aggregate Value on the eighteen
(18) month anniversary of the Change in Control
	 
	 	(4)  	25% of the Aggregate Value on the two (2)
year anniversary of the Change in Control

	 	(iii)  	Any unpaid portion of the Retention Award shall be earned
and paid immediately upon the occurrence of a Qualifying Termination (as
defined in Section 7) which occurs on or following the Change in Control.
Upon any termination other than a Qualifying Termination following a Change in
Control, any unearned portion of the Retention Award shall be forfeited.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 6(b), if
the Change in Control does not constitute a change in ownership or effective
control of the Company for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, the payment
to the Grantee of earned amounts of the Retention Award (as determined in
accordance with this Section 6(b)) shall occur on the fifth anniversary of the
Grant Date.

	7.  	Certain Definitions.

	 	(a)  	“Cause” (i) shall have the definition set forth in the Change in Control
agreement between the Grantee and the Company, or (ii) if there is no such agreement:
shall mean (A) any material act of fraud, misappropriation, dishonesty, embezzlement
or similar conduct by the Grantee against the Company or any Affiliate or any client
of the Company or an Affiliate; (B) conviction (including a plea of nolo contendere)
of the Grantee for the commission of a felony; or (C) willful misconduct by the
Grantee in connection with the performance of his duties that

3

 

	 	   	could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Company’s or any Affiliate’s
business or reputation.
	 
	 	(b)  	“Change in Control” shall mean:

	 	(i)  	the approval by the stockholders of the Company of a merger or
consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger
or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company
outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by
remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the
surviving entity) fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the total voting power
represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity
outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation;
	 
	 	(ii)  	any approval by the stockholders of the Company of a plan of
complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or
disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s
business operations or assets;
	 
	 	(iii)  	any “person” (as that term is used in Sections 13(d) and
14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) becoming the
“beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company
representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power represented
by the Company’s then outstanding voting securities;
	 
	 	(iv)  	a change in the composition of the board of directors of the

a majority of those directors whose election or nomination was not in
connection with any transaction described in subsections (a), (b), or (c)
above, or in connection with an actual or threatened proxy contest relating to
the election of directors of the Company; or
	 
	 	(v)  	a finding by fifty percent (50%) or more of the Incumbent
Directors that a sale, disposition, merger or other transaction or event
designated by such Incumbent Directors in their sole discretion shall, under
this Restricted Stock Grant Notice, constitute a Change in Control with
respect to the Grantee.

	 	(c)  	“Good Reason” shall mean (i) the relocation of more than 50 miles of the
Grantee’s primary business office from the location in effect immediately prior to a

law, rule or regulation or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent or approval of
any such governmental authority.
	 
	9.  	No Effect on Employment. The terms of Grantee’s employment shall be determined from
time to time by the Company, or the Affiliate employing the Grantee, as the case may be, and
the Company, or the Affiliate employing the Grantee, as the case may be, shall have the right,
which is hereby expressly reserved, to terminate or change the terms of the employment of the
Grantee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without good cause.
	 
	10.  	Committee Authority. The Committee shall have all powers and discretion necessary or
appropriate to interpret the Plan and this Restricted Stock Grant Notice and to adopt such
rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan and this Restricted
Stock Grant Notice as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules. All
actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Committee in good faith
shall be final and binding upon the Grantee, the Company and all other interested persons. No
member of the Committee shall be personally liable for any action, determination or
interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Restricted Stock Grant
Notice.
	 
	11.  	Determination of Disability. The Committee (or its delegate), in making the
determination as to whether the Grantee has incurred a Disability, may require the Grantee to
be examined (and later reexamined) by a physician or physicians selected by the Committee (or
its delegate). Failure by the Grantee to comply with such examination or reexamination shall
result in a determination that the Grantee has not incurred a Disability.
