nominee of DTC. The Paying Agent and Registrar and the Issuer may treat DTC (or its

purposes of payment of the principal or redemption price of or interest on the Bonds,
selecting the Bonds or portions to be redeemed, giving any notice permitted or required
to be given to registered owners of Bonds under the Resolution of the Issuer, registering

or redemption price of or interest on the Bonds; with respect to any notice given to
owners of Bonds under the Resolution; with respect to the Participant(s) selected to

obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal of and premium, if any, and
interest. Upon delivery by DTC to the Paying Agent and Registrar of written notice that
DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., the Bonds will
be transferable to the new nominee in accordance with this Section.
c) In the event the Issuer determines that it is in the best interest of the Beneficial

Paying Agent and Registrar, whereupon DTC will notify the Participants, of the
availability through DTC of Bonds certificates. The Bonds will be transferable in
accordance with this Section. DTC may determine to discontinue providing its services
with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving notice to the Issuer and the Paying Agent
and Registrar and discharging its responsibilities under applicable law. In this event,the
Bonds will be transferable in accordance with this Section.
d)Notwithstanding any other provision of the Resolution to the contrary, so long

Bondholder.

Section, the transfer or exchange may be accomplished upon receipt by the Registrar
from the registered owners of the Bonds to be transferred or exchanged and appropriate
instruments of transfer. In the event Bond certificates are issued to holders other than
Cede & Co.,its successor as nominee for DTC as holder of all the Bonds, or other
securities depository as holder of all the Bonds,the provisions of the Resolution apply to,
among other things,the printing of certificates and the method or payment of principal of
and interest on the certificates. Any substitute depository shall be designated in writing
by the Issuer to the Paying Agent. Any such substitute depository shall be a qualified and

bond is not presented for payment of principal at the maturity or redemption date, if funds
sufficient to pay such principal of or interest on Bonds shall have been made available to
the Paying Agent for the benefit of the owner thereof, all liability of the Issuer to the
owner thereof for such interest or payment of such Bonds shall forthwith cease, terminate
and be completely discharged, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the Paying Agent to
