 PART I.

 
 CREATION OF THREE HUNDRED SEVENTY-NINTH

SERIES OF BONDS,
 GENERAL AND
REFUNDING MORTGAGE BONDS,
 2019 SERIES A
  

		
	TERMS OF BONDS OF 2019 SERIES A.	  	SECTION 1. The Company hereby creates the three hundred seventy-ninth series of bonds to be issued under and secured by the Original Indenture as amended to date and as further amended by this Supplemental Indenture, to be
designated, and to be distinguished from the bonds of all other series, by the title “General and Refunding Mortgage Bonds, 2019 Series A” (elsewhere herein referred to as the “bonds of 2019 Series A”). The aggregate principal
amount of bonds of 2019 Series A shall be limited to six hundred fifty million dollars ($650,000,000), except as provided in Sections 7 and 13 of Article II of the Original Indenture with respect to exchanges and replacements of bonds, and except
further that the Company may, without the consent of any holder of the bonds of 2019 Series A, “reopen” the bonds of 2019 Series A, so long as any additional bonds of 2019 Series A have the same tenor and terms as the bonds of 2019 Series
A established hereby.
		
		  	The bonds of 2019 Series A shall be issued as registered bonds without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000. The bonds of 2019 Series A shall be issued in the aggregate
principal amount of $650,000,000, shall mature on March 1, 2049 (subject to earlier redemption) and shall bear interest, payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year (commencing September 1, 2019), at the rate of
three and ninety-five hundredths percent (3.95%) per annum until the principal thereof shall have become due and payable and thereafter until the Company’s obligation with respect to the payment of said principal shall have been discharged as
provided in the Indenture. The bonds of 2019 Series A will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Supplemental Indenture, the bonds of 2019 Series A
shall be payable, as to principal, premium, if any, and interest, at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New York, in any coin or currency of the United States of America which at the time of
payment is legal tender for public and private debts.
		
		  	Except as provided herein, each bond of 2019 Series A shall be dated the date of its authentication and interest shall be payable on the principal represented thereby from the March 1 or September 1 next preceding the date
to which interest has been paid on bonds of 2019 Series A, unless the bond is authenticated on a date prior to September 1, 2019 in which case interest shall be payable from February 15, 2019.

  
 13 

			
		
		 	The bonds of 2019 Series A in definitive form shall be, at the election of the Company, fully engraved or shall be lithographed or printed in authorized denominations as aforesaid and numbered
R-1 and upwards (with such further designation as may be appropriate and desirable to indicate by such designation the form, series and denomination of bonds of 2019 Series A). Until bonds of 2019 Series A in
definitive form are ready for delivery, the Company may execute, and upon its request in writing the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in lieu thereof, bonds of 2019 Series A in temporary form, as provided in Section 10 of Article II of
the Indenture. Temporary bonds of 2019 Series A if any, may be printed and may be issued in authorized denominations in substantially the form of definitive bonds of 2019 Series A, but without a recital of redemption prices and with such omissions,
insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary bonds, all as may be determined by the Company.
		
		 	Interest on any bond of 2019 Series A that is payable on any interest payment date and is punctually paid or duly provided for shall be paid to the person in whose name that bond, or any previous bond to the extent evidencing the
same debt as that evidenced by that bond, is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest, which regular record date shall be the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not such day is a business day) immediately
preceding the applicable interest payment date. If the Company shall default in the payment of the interest due on any interest payment date on the principal represented by any bond of 2019 Series A, such defaulted interest shall forthwith cease to
be payable to the registered holder of that bond on the relevant regular record date by virtue of his having been such holder, and such defaulted interest may be paid to the registered holder of that bond (or any bond or bonds of 2019 Series A
issued upon transfer or exchange thereof) on the date of payment of such defaulted interest or, at the election of the Company, to the person in whose name that bond (or any bond or bonds of 2019 Series A issued upon transfer or exchange thereof) is
registered on a subsequent record date established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Company to the holders of bonds of 2019 Series A not less than ten (10) days preceding such subsequent record date, which subsequent record date
shall be at least five (5) days prior to the payment date of such defaulted interest. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months.
		
		 	Bonds of 2019 Series A, in definitive and temporary form, may bear such legends as may be necessary to comply with any law or with any rules or regulations made pursuant thereto.
		
		 	If any interest payment date, date of redemption or the stated maturity for the bonds of 2019 Series A would otherwise be a day that is not a business day, payment of principal and/or interest or premium, if any, with respect to
the bonds of 2019 Series A will be paid on the next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on such date and no interest on such payment will accrue from and after such date.
		
		 	“Business day” means any day other than a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York or the State of Michigan are authorized or obligated pursuant to law or executive order to close.

		  	At any time prior to the Par Call Date (as defined below), the optional redemption price will be equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the bonds of 2019 Series A to be redeemed on the redemption date and
(ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest of the bonds of 2019 Series A to be redeemed that would be due if the bonds of 2019 Series A matured on the Par Call Date (not including any
portion of any payments of interest accrued to the redemption date), in each case discounted from their respective scheduled payment dates to such redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year
consisting of 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 15 basis points, as determined by the Quotation Agent (as defined below), plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest
thereon to the redemption date.
		
		  	At any time on or after the Par Call Date, the optional redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the bonds of 2019 Series A to be redeemed on the redemption date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to
the redemption date.
		
		  	Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the bonds of 2019 Series A that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the interest payment date to the
registered holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date.
		
		  	“Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any optional redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated on the third Business Day
preceding such redemption date assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.
		
		  	“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the bonds of 2019 Series A (assuming, for this purpose, that
the bonds of 2019 Series A mature on the Par Call Date) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of such comparable maturity.
		
		  	“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any optional redemption date, (i) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations, or (iii) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is
received, such quotation.
		
		  	“Par Call Date” mean September 1, 2048.
		
		  	“Quotation Agent” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

  
 15 

			
		 	“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) each of Barclays Capital Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (or their respective affiliates which are primary U.S.
government securities dealers in the United States (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”)) and a Primary Treasury Dealer selected by BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, or their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing
shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer, and (ii) any other Primary Treasury Dealer(s) the Company selects.
		
		 	“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any optional redemption date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the
Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such
redemption date.
		
		 	The bonds of 2019 Series A shall be redeemable as aforesaid upon giving notice of such redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid, by or on behalf of the Company at least thirty (30) days, but not more than sixty
(60) days, prior to the date fixed for redemption to the registered holders of bonds of 2019 Series A so called for redemption at their last respective addresses appearing on the register thereof, but failure to mail such notice to the
registered holders of any bonds of 2019 Series A designated for redemption shall not affect the validity of any such redemption of any other bonds of such series. Interest shall cease to accrue on any bonds of 2019 Series A (or any portion thereof)
so called for redemption from and after the date fixed for redemption if payment sufficient to redeem the bonds of 2019 Series A (or such portion) designated for redemption has been duly provided for. Bonds of 2019 Series A redeemed in part only
shall be in amounts of $2,000 or any larger amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000.
		
		 	If the giving of the notice of redemption shall have been completed, or if provision satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of such notice shall have been made, and if the Company shall have deposited with the Trustee in trust
funds (which shall have become available for payment to the holders of the bonds of 2019 Series A so to be redeemed) sufficient to redeem bonds of 2019 Series A in whole or in part, on the date fixed for redemption, then all obligations of the
Company in respect of such bonds (or portions thereof) so to be redeemed and interest due or to become due thereon shall cease and be discharged and the holders of such bonds of 2019 Series A (or portions thereof) shall thereafter be restricted
exclusively to such funds for any and all claims of whatsoever nature on their part under the Indenture or in respect of such bonds (or portions thereof) and interest.
		
		 	The bonds of 2019 Series A shall not be entitled to or subject to any sinking fund and shall not be redeemable other than as provided in Section 2 hereof.

  
 16 

			
	EXCHANGE AND TRANSFER.	  	SECTION 3. At the option of the registered holder, any bonds of 2019 Series A, upon surrender thereof for cancellation at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New York, together with
a written instrument of transfer (if so required by the Company or by the Trustee) in form approved by the Company duly executed by the holder or by its duly authorized attorney, shall be exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of bonds
of 2019 Series A upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in Section 7 of Article II of the Indenture. The Company waives its rights under Section 7 of Article II of the Indenture not to make exchanges or transfers of bonds of
2019 Series A during any period of ten (10) days next preceding any redemption date for such bonds.
		
		  	Bonds of 2019 Series A, in definitive and temporary form, may bear such legends as may be necessary to comply with any law or with any rules or regulations made pursuant thereto.

nature and extent of the security, the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are issued and under which additional bonds may be issued, and the rights of the holders of the bonds and of the Trustee in respect of such security (which Indenture
and all indentures supplemental thereto, including the Supplemental Indenture dated as of February 1, 2019, are hereinafter collectively called the “Indenture”). As provided in the Indenture, said bonds may be for various principal
sums and are issuable in series, which may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary as in said Indenture provided. With the consent of the Company and to the extent permitted by and as provided in the
Indenture, the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders of the bonds and the terms and provisions of the Indenture, or of any indenture supplemental thereto, may be modified or altered in certain respects by affirmative vote of at
least eighty-five percent (85%) in amount of the bonds then outstanding, and, if the rights of one or more, but less than all, series of bonds then outstanding are to be affected by the action proposed to be taken, then also by affirmative vote of
at least eighty-five percent (85%) in amount of the series of bonds so to be affected (excluding in every instance bonds disqualified from voting by reason of the Company’s interest therein as specified in the Indenture); provided, however,
that, without the consent of the holder hereof, no such modification or alteration shall, among other things, affect the terms of payment of the principal of or the interest on this bond, which in those respects is unconditional.
		
		  	This bond is not subject to repayment at the option of the holder hereof. Except as provided below, this bond is not redeemable by the Company prior to maturity and is not subject to any sinking fund.

  
 18 

			
		 	This bond will be redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole at any time or in part from time to time at the redemption prices set forth below. At any time prior to the Par Call Date (as defined below), the optional
redemption price will be equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of this bond to be redeemed on the redemption date and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest of this
bond to be redeemed that would be due if this bond matured on the Par Call Date (not including any portion of any payments of interest accrued to the redemption date), in each case discounted from their respective scheduled payment dates to such
redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 15 basis points, as
determined by the Quotation Agent (as defined below), plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. At any time on or after the Par Call Date, the optional redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal
amount of this bond to be redeemed on the redemption date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
		
		 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on this bond that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the interest payment date to the registered holders
as of the close of business on the relevant record date.
		
		 	“Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any optional redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated on the third Business Day
preceding such redemption date assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.
		
		 	“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of this bond (assuming, for this purpose, that this bond matures
on the Par Call Date) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of such comparable maturity.
		
		 	“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any optional redemption date, (i) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations, or (iii) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is
received, such quotation.
		
		 	“Par Call Date” means September 1, 2048.
		
		 	“Quotation Agent” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company
		
		 	“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) each of Barclays Capital Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (or their respective affiliates which are primary U.S.
government securities dealers in the United State (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”)) and a Primary Treasury Dealer selected by BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, or their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing
shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer, and (ii) any other Primary Treasury Dealer(s) the Company selects.

  
 19 

			
		 	“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any optional redemption date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the
Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such
redemption date.
		
		 	Notice of any optional redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the optional redemption date to the holder hereof at its registered address. If notice has been provided in accordance with the
Indenture and funds for the redemption of this bond called for redemption have been made available on the redemption date, this bond will cease to bear interest on the date fixed for redemption. Thereafter, the only right of the holder hereof will
be to receive payment of the redemption price.
		
		 	Under the Indenture, funds may be deposited with the Trustee (which shall have become available for payment), in advance of the redemption date of any of the bonds of 2019 Series A (or portions thereof), in trust for the redemption
of such bonds (or portions thereof) and the interest due or to become due thereon, and thereupon all obligations of the Company in respect of such bonds (or portions thereof) so to be redeemed and such interest shall cease and be discharged, and the
holders thereof shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such funds for any and all claims of whatsoever nature on their part under the Indenture or with respect to such bonds (or portions thereof) and interest.
		
		 	In case an event of default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur, the principal of all the bonds issued thereunder may become or be declared due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided
in the Indenture.
		
		 	The bonds of this series are issuable only in fully registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000. This Global Security is exchangeable for bonds in
definitive form only under certain limited circumstances set forth in the Indenture. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, bonds of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
bonds of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the registered holder surrendering the same.
		
		 	This bond is transferable by the registered holder hereof, in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, on the books of the Company kept at its office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New
York, upon surrender and cancellation of this bond, and thereupon, a new registered bond of the same series of authorized denominations for a like aggregate principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor, and this bond with
others in like form may in like manner be exchanged for one or more new bonds of the same series of other authorized denominations, but of the same aggregate principal amount, all as provided and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the
Indenture, and upon payment, in any event, of the charges prescribed in the Indenture.

  
 20 

			
		  	No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the interest on this bond, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof or of the Indenture, or of any indenture supplemental thereto, against any
incorporator, or against any past, present or future stockholder, director or officer, as such, of the Company, or of any predecessor or successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any such predecessor or successor corporation,
whether for amounts unpaid on stock subscriptions or by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise howsoever; all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of
the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released by every holder or owner hereof, as more fully provided in the Indenture.
		
		  	This bond shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, or its successor thereunder, shall have signed the form of certificate
endorsed hereon.
		
		  	IN WITNESS WHEREOF, DTE ELECTRIC COMPANY has caused this instrument to be executed by an authorized officer, with his or her manual or facsimile signatures, and its corporate seal, or a facsimile thereof, to be impressed or
imprinted hereon and the same to be attested by its Corporate Secretary or Assistant Corporate Secretary by manual or facsimile signature.

AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT 

 

This Amendment to Employment Agreement (“Amendment”)
is made by and between Precision Therapeutics Inc. (“Precision”) and Robert Myers (“Myers”), collectively
referred to as the “Parties.”

 

1.                 
Background Facts. The Parties agree with the following facts that are incorporated by reference into this
Amendment.

 

a.                  
Myers is currently employed as the Chief Financial Officer of Precision, formerly known as BioDrain Medical, Inc.

 

b.                 
Myers entered into the Employment Agreement with BioDrain Medical, Inc. effective August 11, 2012 (the “Employment
Agreement” attached hereto as Exhibit A).

 

c.                  
Section 18 of the Employment Agreement permits the Parties to modify the Employment Agreement in writing and signed by both
Parties.

 

d.                 
The Parties agree to amend the Employment Agreement by mutual consent by entering into this Amendment.

 

e.                  
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties
agree to amend the Employment Agreement as follows.

 

2.                 
Amendment to the Employment Agreement. The Parties agree to amend the Employment Agreement with all of the
changes in this Section 2:

 

a.                  
Increase in Base Salary. The following sentences are added in Section 4a (entitled “Base Salary”) of
the Employment Agreement after the first sentence in Section 4a:

 

Effective August 1, 2018, Employee will receive
an annualized base salary of $250,000 (gross, less applicable legally required withholdings and such other deductions as Employee
voluntarily authorizes in writing). Effective August 1, 2019, Employee will receive an annualized base salary of $300,000 (gross,
less applicable legally required withholdings and such other deductions as Employee voluntarily authorizes in writing).

 

b.                 
Increase in Vacation. The following sentence is added in Section 5c (entitled “Vacation”) of the Employment
Agreement after the second sentence in Section 5c:

 

Effective August 1, 2018, Employee shall be
entitled to five (5) weeks of paid vacation per each calendar year earned ratably over each calendar year, to be taken at such
times as Employee and Company shall determine and provided that no vacation time shall unreasonably interfere with the duties required
to be rendered by Employee hereunder.

    	 	Page 1 of 4	 

     

    

c.                  
No Guaranteed Minimum Annual Incentive Bonus.

 

i.                 
The third sentence in Section 4c (entitled “Bonus”) of the Employment Agreement set forth below is deleted in
its entirety:

 

The minimum bonus that may be earned by Employee
for any year will be not less than 20% of Employee’s then-current base salary.

 

ii.                 
The following sentence is added in Section 4(c) of the Employment Agreement and replaces the third sentence above:

 

Employee is eligible to receive a pro-rata annual
incentive bonus for 2018 for the period January 1, 2018 through July 31, 2018 that will be not less than 20% of Employee’s
then-current base salary.

 

3.                 
No Other Changes. Except as modified by this Amendment, there are no changes to the Employment Agreement.
The Parties acknowledge and agree the Employment Agreement as modified by this Amendment remains in full force and effect. Myers
acknowledges and agrees that the changes in this Amendment do not impact the other terms and conditions as outlined in the Employment
Agreement, including but not limited to Section 6 (entitled “Non-Competition”), Section 7 (entitled “Intellectual
Property”) and Section 8 (entitled “Nondisclosure of Confidential Information”).

 

4.                 
Severability. If any provision of the Amendment is unenforceable for any reason, such provision or portion
shall be considered separate from the remainder of the Amendment, and the rest of the Employment Agreement as modified by this
Amendment shall remain in full force and effect. In the event that any provision of this Amendment is unenforceable because it
is overly broad or vague as written, or if any provision violates any applicable law at the time of its enforcement, such provision
shall be deemed modified to narrow or clarify its application to the extent necessary to make the provision enforceable, if possible,
to the fullest extent allowable. The provisions of this Amendment will be interpreted, where possible, to sustain their legality
and enforceability.

 

5.                 
Complete Agreement. Any modification of, or addition to, this Amendment must be in writing and signed by both
Parties. This Amendment and the Employment Agreement constitute the entire understanding between the Parties and supersede all
prior discussions, representations, and/or agreements between the Parties with respect to the matters herein.

 

 

    	 	Page 2 of 4	 

     

    

6.                 
Myers’ Agreement and Understanding. Myers has read this Amendment carefully and understand all of its
terms. Myers has had the opportunity to discuss this Amendment with Myers’ own attorney prior to signing it and to make certain
that Myers fully understands the content and effect of this Amendment. Myers entered into this Amendment voluntarily.
