Section 1. Registrants Business and Operations
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
In 1987, Kansas Gas And Electric Company (KGE) entered into a sale and leaseback transaction, in which KGE sold to the Owner Trustee (as defined below), and leased back from the Owner Trustee, its 50% undivided interest in La Cygne Unit 2 (Unit 2), an electric generating plant located in Linn County, Kansas. On June 30, 2005, KGE caused the Owner Trustee to refinance the bonds issued in connection with that sale and leaseback transaction. In addition to the refinancing, KGE and the other parties to the transaction amended certain terms of the Lease (as defined below), including an amendment to extend the term of the Lease. The bonds outstanding prior to the refinancing were redeemed with the proceeds from the offering of a new series of bonds- the 5.647% Secured Facility Bonds, Series 2005, due 2021 (the Bonds), in the principal amount of $320,000,000. A portion of the proceeds from the offering of the Bonds was paid by the Owner Trustee, the issuer of such bonds, to Comcast MO Financial Services, Inc., the equity investor in, and beneficiary of, the owner trust of which the Owner Trustee acts as the trustee. The Bonds will be repaid through the rental and other payments made by KGE to the Owner Trustee, as the lessor, pursuant to the Lease. Neither KGE, nor its parent, Westar Energy, are direct obligors, or guarantors, of the Bonds.
Pursuant to Amendment No. 4 dated as of June 30, 2005 to the Lease Agreement dated as of September 1, 1987 as subsequently amended by Amendment No. 1 dated as of October 1, 1987, Amendment No. 2 dated as of August 1, 1989, and Amendment No. 3 dated as of September 18, 1992, between U.S. Bank National Association (as successor in interest to The Connecticut National Bank), as owner trustee (the Owner Trustee), and KGE, as lessee (as so amended, the Lease) the term of the Lease was extended for a term expiring on September 29, 2029. Additionally, KGE now has the right to exercise the option to buy back the 50% interest in Unit 2 on September 19th of 2015, 2020 or 2025. KGE has also obtained an additional right to request the Owner Trustee to effect a refinancing of the Bonds in the future.
In connection with the amendment to the Lease, KGE entered into the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 30, 2005 to the Trust Indenture, Security Agreement and Mortgage, dated as of September 1, 1987, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 29, 1992, among the Owner Trustee (not in its individual capacity except to the extent set forth therein but solely as owner trustee under the Trust Agreement dated as of September 1, 1987, as supplemented, between Comcast MO Financial Services, Inc. (formerly named U S West Financial Services, Inc.), as Owner Participant, and the Owner Trustee, KGE and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (formerly known as Bankers Trust Company)), as Indenture trustee, governing the terms of the Bonds. The Bonds were issued in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Bonds were sold pursuant to a purchase agreement dated June 21, 2005 among KGE, the Owner Trustee and certain initial purchasers named therein. The Bonds bear interest at the rate of 5.647% per annum, payable semi-annually on March 29 and September 29, beginning September 29, 2005 and will mature on March 29, 2021. At any time from June 30, 2005 to, but not including September 29, 2015, the Bonds may be redeemed at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of the principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding and interest thereon (exclusive of interest to the redemption date) discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points. On and after September 29, 2015, the Bonds may be redeemed at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and additional interest, if any, to the redemption date.
KGE also entered into a registration rights agreement, dated June 30, 2005, with the certain initial purchasers named therein (the Registration Rights Agreement) in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, KGE has agreed to file an exchange offer registration statement or, under certain circumstances, a shelf registration statement, relating to the Bonds with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If KGE fails to comply with certain of its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, it will be required to pay additional interest to holders of the Bonds.
1
The Bonds have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and applicable state securities laws. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Bonds.
KGE maintains ordinary banking and trust relationships with the indenture trustee, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas and its affiliates.
The descriptions of the provisions of the agreements set forth above are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full and complete terms contained in such agreements, which are filed as exhibits to this Form 8-K.

Dear Sirs:
Kansas Gas and Electric Company, a Kansas corporation (the Company) and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association (USB), not in its individual capacity but solely as owner trustee (the Owner Trustee), have entered into a Purchase Agreement dated June 21, 2005 (the Purchase Agreement) with Credit Suisse First Boston LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., ABN AMRO Incorporated, Barclays Capital Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc, Piper Jaffray & Co. and Hibernia Southcoast Capital, Inc. (each, an Initial Purchaser and collectively, the Initial Purchasers), relating to $320,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.647% Secured Facility Bonds, Series 2005, Due 2021 (the Initial Securities). The Initial Securities will be issued pursuant to the Trust Indenture, Security Agreement and Mortgage dated as of September 1, 1987 (the Original Indenture) among the Company, the Owner Trustee and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (formerly known as Bankers Trust Company), acting not in its individual capacity but solely as indenture trustee (the Indenture Trustee), as amended by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 29, 1992 (the First Supplemental Indenture and, together with the Original Indenture, the Existing Indenture) and the Second Supplemental Indenture to be dated as of June 30, 2005 (together with the Existing Indenture, the Indenture). As an inducement to the Initial Purchasers to enter into the Purchase Agreement, the Company and the Owner Trustee, as applicable, agree with the Initial Purchasers, for the benefit of the holders of the Initial Securities (including, without limitation, the Initial Purchasers), the Exchange Securities (as defined below) and the Private Exchange Securities (as defined below) (collectively the Holders), as follows:
1. Registered Exchange Offer. The Company shall, at its own cost, prepare and, not later than 90 days after (or if the 90th day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) the date of original
issue of the Initial Securities (the Issue Date), file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) a registration statement (the Exchange Offer Registration Statement) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), with respect to a proposed offer (the Registered Exchange Offer) to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof), who are not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer, to issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Initial Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities (the Exchange Securities) of the Owner Trust (as defined in the Indenture) issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects to the Initial Securities (except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Initial Securities and the provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) that would be registered under the Securities Act. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act within 210 days (or if the 210th day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) after the Issue Date of the Initial Securities and shall keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective for not less than 20 business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being called the Exchange Offer Registration Period).
If the Registered Exchange Offer is effected, the Registered Exchange Offer will be entitled to be closed 20 business days after the commencement thereof provided that the Company has accepted all the Initial Securities theretofore validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Registered Exchange Offer.
Following the declaration of the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly commence the Registered Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof) electing to exchange the Initial Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder is not an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of such Holders business and has no arrangements with any person to participate in the distribution of the Exchange Securities and is not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer) to trade such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws of the several states of the United States.
The Company acknowledges that, pursuant to current interpretations by the Commissions staff of Section 5 of the Securities Act, in the absence of an applicable exemption therefrom, (i) each Holder which is a broker-dealer electing to exchange Initial Securities, acquired for its own account as a result of market making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange Securities (an Exchanging Dealer), is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information substantially to the effect set forth in (a) Annex A hereto on the cover, (b) Annex B hereto in the Exchange Offer Procedures section and the Purpose of the Exchange Offer section, and (c) Annex C hereto in the Plan of Distribution section of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Exchanging Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and (ii) an Initial Purchaser that elects to sell Exchange Securities acquired in exchange for Initial Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in connection with such sale.
The Company shall, subject to Section 6(b) hereof, use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein, in order to permit such prospectus to be lawfully delivered by all persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as such persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities; provided, however, that (i) in the case where such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto must be delivered by an Exchanging Dealer or an Initial Purchaser, such period shall be the lesser of 180 days and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers and the Initial Purchasers have sold all Exchange Securities held by them (unless such period is extended
2
pursuant to Section 3(j) below) and (ii) the Company shall make such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of any Exchange Securities for a period of not less than 90 days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer.
If, upon consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, any Initial Purchaser holds Initial Securities acquired by it as part of its initial distribution, the Company, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Securities pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, shall cause the Owner Trustee to, and the Owner Trustee shall, issue and deliver to such Initial Purchaser upon the written request of such Initial Purchaser, in exchange (the Private Exchange) for the Initial Securities held by such Initial Purchaser, a like principal amount of debt securities issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects (including the existence of restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act and the securities laws of the several states of the United States, but excluding provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) to the Initial Securities (the Private Exchange Securities). The Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities are herein collectively called the Securities.
In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall:
(a) mail to each Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents;
(b) keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than 30 days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders;
(c) utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which may be the Indenture Trustee or an affiliate of the Indenture Trustee;
(d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last business day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and
(e) otherwise comply with all applicable laws.
As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Company shall:
(x) accept for exchange all the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and the Private Exchange;
(y) deliver to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation all the Initial Securities so accepted for exchange; and
(z) cause the Owner Trustee to, and the Owner Trustee shall cause the Indenture Trustee to, authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder of the Initial Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, equal in principal amount to the Initial Securities of such Holder so accepted for exchange.
The Indenture will provide that the Exchange Securities will not be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture and that all the Securities will vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that none of the Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a class separate from one another on any matter.
3
Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange Security issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and in the Private Exchange will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Initial Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the Initial Securities, from the date of original issue of the Initial Securities.
Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company that at the time of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer that: (i) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (ii) such Holder will have no arrangements or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act, (iii) such Holder is not an affiliate, as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of the Company or if it is an affiliate, such Holder will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable, (iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the Exchange Securities and (v) if such Holder is a broker-dealer, that it will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Initial Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and that it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities.
Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company will ensure that (i) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any prospectus forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
2. Shelf Registration. If, (i) because of any change in law or in applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the Commission, a Registered Exchange Offer is not permitted to be effected, as contemplated by Section 1 hereof, (ii) the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated within 240 days of the Issue Date, (iii) any Initial Purchaser so requests in writing on or prior to the 20th business day following the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer with respect to the Initial Securities (or the Private Exchange Securities) not eligible to be exchanged for Exchange Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer and held by it following consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer or (iv) any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer) notifies the Company in writing on or prior to the 20th business day following the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer that it is not eligible to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer or, in the case of any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer) that participates in the Registered Exchange Offer, such Holder does not receive freely tradeable Exchange Securities on the date of the exchange, the Company shall take the following actions:
(a) The Company shall, at its cost, prepare and, not later than 60 days after so required or requested pursuant to this Section 2, file with the Commission and thereafter shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective (in no event more than 120 days after so required or requested pursuant to this Section 2) a registration statement (the Shelf Registration Statement and, together with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a Registration Statement) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof) by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the Shelf Registration); provided, however, that no Holder (other than an Initial Purchaser) shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder.
4
(b) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Securities, for a period of two years (or for such longer period if extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) from the Issue Date or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) are no longer restricted securities (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or any successor rule thereof). The Company shall be deemed not to have used its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period if it voluntarily takes any action (other than an action permitted by Section 6(b)) that would result in Holders of Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Securities during that period, unless such action is required by applicable law.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, amendment or supplement, (i) to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
3. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration contemplated by Section 2 hereof and, to the extent applicable, any Registered Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall apply:
(a) The Company shall (i) furnish to each Initial Purchaser, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement, if any, to the prospectus included therein (except for documents to be filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) and, in the event that an Initial Purchaser (with respect to any portion of an unsold allotment from the original offering) is participating in the Registered Exchange Offer or the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as such Initial Purchaser reasonably may propose; (ii) include information substantially to the effect set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the Exchange Offer Procedures section and the Purpose of the Exchange Offer section and in Annex C hereto in the Plan of Distribution section of the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and include the information set forth in Annex D hereto in the Letter of Transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; (iii) if requested by an Initial Purchaser in connection with a Shelf Registration, include the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in the prospectus forming a part of the Shelf Registration Statement; and (iv) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, include the names of the Holders, who propose to sell Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as selling securityholders.
(b) The Company shall give written notice to the Initial Purchaser, the Holders of the Securities (only in the event of a Shelf Registration Statement) and any broker-dealer participating in the Registered Exchange Offer (a Participating Broker-Dealer) from whom the Company has received prior written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made):
(i) when the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;
5
(ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information;
(iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose;
(iv) of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
(v) of the happening of any event that requires the Company to make changes in the Registration Statement or the prospectus in order that the Registration Statement or the prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
(c) The Company shall make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

(i) The Company shall cause the Owner Trustee, and the Owner Trustee shall, cooperate with the Holders of the Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.
(j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall, subject to Section 6(b), promptly prepare and file a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities, the prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes to the prospectus have been made, then the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any such Participating Broker-Dealers shall suspend use of such prospectus, and the period of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement provided for in Section 2(b) above and the Exchange Offer Registration Statement provided for in Section 1 above shall each be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 3(j).

7
period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of the Companys first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which statement shall cover such 12-month period.
(m) The Company shall cause the Indenture to be qualified, to the extent such Indenture is not already so qualified, under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in a timely manner and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new indenture trustee under the Indenture, the Company shall appoint a new indenture trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture.
(n) The Company may require each Holder of Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of the Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Securities of any Holder that unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request.
(o) Each of the Company and the Owner Trustee shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as any Holder of the Securities shall reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration.

(q) In the case of any Shelf Registration, each of the Company and, if applicable, the Owner Trustee, if requested by any Holder of Securities covered thereby, shall cause (i) its counsel to deliver an opinion and updates thereof relating to the Securities in customary form addressed to such Holders and the managing underwriters, if any, thereof and dated, in the case of the initial opinion, the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement (it being agreed that the matters to be covered by such opinion shall include, without limitation, the due incorporation and good standing of the Company and its respective subsidiaries or the Owner Trustee, as applicable; the qualification of the Company and its subsidiaries or the Owner Trustee, as applicable, to transact business as foreign corporations; the due authorization, execution and delivery of the relevant agreement of the type referred to in Section 3(o) hereof; the due authorization, execution, authentication and issuance, and the validity and enforceability, of the applicable Securities; the absence of material legal or governmental proceedings involving the Company and its subsidiaries or the Owner Trustee, as applicable; the absence of governmental approvals required to be obtained in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, the offering and sale of the applicable Securities, or any agreement of the type referred to in Section 3(o) hereof; the compliance as to form of such Shelf Registration Statement and any documents incorporated by
8
reference therein and of the Indenture with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Trust Indenture Act, respectively; and, as of the date of the opinion and as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement or most recent post-effective amendment thereto, as the case may be, the absence from such Shelf Registration Statement and the prospectus included therein, as then amended or supplemented, and from any documents incorporated by reference therein of an untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any such documents, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time that such documents were filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act); (ii) its officers to execute and deliver all customary documents and certificates and updates thereof requested by any underwriters of the applicable Securities and (iii) its independent public accountants to provide to the selling Holders of the applicable Securities and any underwriter therefor a comfort letter in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in comfort letters in connection with primary underwritten offerings, subject to receipt of appropriate documentation as contemplated, and only if permitted, by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 72.

(t) If a Registered Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Initial Securities by Holders to the Company (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall instruct the Owner Trustee to mark, and the Owner Trustee shall so mark, or cause to be marked, on the Initial Securities so exchanged that such Initial Securities are being canceled in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be; in no event shall the Initial Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied.
(u) The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to (a) if the Initial Securities have been rated prior to the initial sale of such Initial Securities, confirm such ratings will apply to the Securities covered by a Registration Statement, or (b) if the Initial Securities were not previously rated, cause the Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be rated with the appropriate rating agencies, if so requested by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Securities covered by such Registration Statement, or by the managing underwriters, if any.
(v) In the event that any broker-dealer registered under the Exchange Act shall underwrite any Securities or participate as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or assist in the distribution (within the meaning of the Conduct Rules (the Rules) of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (NASD)) thereof, whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an underwriter, a placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company will assist such broker-dealer in complying with the requirements of such Rules, including, without limitation, by (i) if such Rules, including Rule 2720, shall so
9
require, engaging a qualified independent underwriter (as defined in Rule 2720) to participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement relating to such Securities, to exercise usual standards of due diligence in respect thereto and, if any portion of the offering contemplated by such Registration Statement is an underwritten offering or is made through a placement or sales agent, to recommend the yield of such Securities, (ii) indemnifying any such qualified independent underwriter to the extent of the indemnification of underwriters provided in Section 5 hereof and (iii) providing such information to such broker-dealer as may be required in order for such broker-dealer to comply with the requirements of the Rules.
(w) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Securities covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby.
4. Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations relating to the Exchange Registration under Sections 1 through 3 hereof (including the reasonable fees and expenses, if any, of Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers, incurred in connection with the Registered Exchange Offer), whether or not the Registered Exchange Offer is filed or becomes effective, and, in the event of a Shelf Registration, shall bear or reimburse the Holders of the Securities covered thereby for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel designated by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Initial Securities covered thereby to act as counsel for the Holders of the Initial Securities in connection therewith.
5. Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of the Securities, any Participating Broker-Dealer and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or such Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each Holder, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such controlling persons are referred to collectively as the Indemnified Parties) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse, as incurred, the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein and (ii) with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration Statement, the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection (a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased the Securities concerned, to the extent that a prospectus relating to such Securities was required to be delivered by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer under the Securities Act in connection with such purchase and any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer results from the fact that there was not sent or given to such person, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities to such person, a copy of the final prospectus if the Company had previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer; provided further, however, that this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to such Indemnified Party. The Company
10
shall also indemnify underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders of the Securities if requested by such Holders.
(b) Each Holder of the Securities, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities or any actions in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have to the Company or any of its controlling persons.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 5, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 5 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action, and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the exchange of the Securities, pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, or, if applicable, the Shelf Registration (ii) if the allocation provided by the
11
foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5(d), the Holders of the Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.
(e) The agreements contained in this Section 5 shall survive the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
6. Additional Interest Under Certain Circumstances. (a) Additional interest (the Additional Interest) with respect to the Initial Securities shall be assessed as follows if any of the following events occur (each such event in clauses (i) through (iii) below a Registration Default):
(i) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement required by this Agreement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to the 90th day after the Issue Date;
(ii) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement required by this Agreement is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the 210th day after the Issue Date;
(iii) the Exchange Offer has not been consummated on or before the 30th business day after the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission;
(iv) if obligated to file the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company fails to file the Shelf Registration Statement with the Commission on or prior to the 60th day after the obligation to file a Shelf Registration Statement arises;
(v) if the Company is obligated to file the Shelf Registration Statement and the Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the 120th day after the obligation to file a Shelf Registration Statement arises; or
(vi) if after either the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, is declared effective (A) such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective; or (B) such Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable (except as permitted in paragraph (b) of this Section 6) in connection with resales of
12
Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified herein because either (1) any event occurs as a result of which the related prospectus forming part of such Registration Statement would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or (2) it shall be necessary to amend such Registration Statement or supplement the related prospectus, to comply with the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder.
Additional Interest shall accrue on the Initial Securities over and above the interest set forth in the title of the Initial Securities from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all such Registration Defaults have been cured, at a rate of 0.50% per annum; provided, however, that Additional Interest on the Initial Securities may not accrue under more than one of the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi) at any one time and provided, further, however, that upon the cessation of a Registration Default pursuant to any of the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi), Additional Interest on the Initial Securities as a result of such clause shall cease to accrue.
(b) A Registration Default referred to in Section 6(a)(vi)(B) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the related prospectus or a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material events, with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in the case of clause (y), the Company is proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events; provided, however, that in any case if such Registration Default occurs for a continuous period in excess of 30 days, Additional Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such Registration Default is cured.
(c) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of Section 6(a) above will be payable in cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Securities. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the Initial Securities, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360.
(d) Transfer Restricted Securities means each Security until the earliest of (i) the date on which such Transfer Restricted Security has been exchanged by a person other than a broker-dealer for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the Registered Exchange Offer, (ii) following the exchange by a broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer of a Initial Security for an Exchange Security, the date on which such Exchange Security is sold to a purchaser who receives from such broker-dealer on or prior to the date of such sale a copy of the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, (iii) the date on which such Initial Security has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iv) the date on which such Initial Securities is distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or is saleable pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act.
7. Rules 144 and 144A. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Initial Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Initial Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable
13
such Holder to sell Initial Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A (including the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). Upon the request of any Holder of Initial Securities, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act.
8. Underwritten Registrations. If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering (Managing Underwriters) will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such offering.
No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such persons Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURED FACILITY BOND]
This Bond is one of an authorized issue of Bonds of the Owner Trustee known as its Secured Facility Bonds, Refunding Series 2005 (herein called the Bonds) issued under, and all equally and ratably secured by, a Trust Indenture, Security Agreement and Mortgage (the Original Indenture) dated as of September 1, 1987, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture ( the First Supplemental Indenture) dated as of September 29, 1992 and the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 30, 2005 (the Second Supplemental Indenture and, collectively with the Original Indenture and the First Supplemental Indenture, the Indenture), among the Owner Trustee, Kansas Gas and Electric Company, a Kansas corporation (herein called KGE), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, a New York banking corporation, as Indenture Trustee (herein called the Indenture Trustee, which term includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto, including the First Supplemental Indenture and Second Supplemental Indenture, reference is hereby made for a description of the nature and extent of the property assigned, pledged, transferred and mortgaged thereunder, the respective rights of the Holders of said Bonds and of the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee in respect of such security, and the terms upon which said Bonds are to be authenticated and delivered.

A-6
less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and all other series of bonds issued under the Indenture at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and all other series of bonds issued under the Indenture at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Bonds and all the bonds of such other series, to waive compliance by KGE and the Owner Trustee 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 Bond shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Bond and of any Bond issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Bond.
The Bonds are limited in aggregate principal amount to $320,000,000.
In addition to the purchase rights described below and as more fully described in the Second Supplemental Indenture, the Bonds are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole but not in part, at 100% of the principal amount thereof together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, under any of the following circumstances:
(i) The receipt of payment of the applicable Casualty Value under the Lease upon the occurrence of an Event of Loss, unless, in connection with an Event of Loss described in clause (e) of the definition thereof, KGE assumes the Bonds then Outstanding pursuant to Section 2.16 of the Indenture; or
(ii) The receipt of payment of the applicable purchase price or Casualty Value resulting from a termination of the Lease pursuant to Section 7 thereof; or
(iii) The receipt of payment of the applicable purchase price or Casualty Value due upon an exercise by KGE of its option to purchase the Assets under subsection 6.1(c)(iii) of the Lease, unless in connection therewith KGE assumes the Bonds then Outstanding pursuant to Section 2.16 of the Indenture; or
(iv) The receipt of payment of the applicable purchase price or Casualty Value due upon the exercise by KGE of its option to purchase the Assets under subsection 6.1(c)(ii) of the Lease in connection with a required Nonseverable Alteration, as contemplated by Section 11.4 of the Lease, unless in connection therewith KGE assumes the Bonds then Outstanding pursuant to Section 2.16 of the Indenture.
The Bonds are also subject to mandatory redemption pursuant to sinking fund installments, as more fully provided in the Second Supplemental Indenture,
A-7

In the event of any partial redemption of Bonds (other than pursuant to the aforementioned sinking fund), the principal amount of Bonds to be redeemed thereafter pursuant to the sinking fund schedule indicated above shall be proportionately reduced as provided in the Indenture.
Selection of the Bonds to be redeemed pursuant to each such sinking fund payment shall be performed using such method as the Indenture Trustee deems fair and appropriate.
The Bonds shall be subject to special mandatory redemption, in whole but not in part, at the applicable redemption prices set forth under Section 6.02(c) of the Indenture upon the receipt of payment of the applicable purchase price upon the exercise by KGE of its option to purchase the Assets on September 29, 2015 or September 29, 2020 under Section 6.l(c)(i) of the Lease or, in the case of a Nonseverable Alteration not required by Section 11.4 of the Lease, Section 6.1(c)(ii) of the Lease unless, in either case, KGE shall assume the 2005 Series Bonds then Outstanding pursuant to Section 2.16 of the Indenture.
The Bonds are subject to redemption at the option of the Owner Trustee, as a whole at any time and in part from time to time, as provided below:
(i) At any time from the date hereof to, but not including September 29, 2015, the Owner Trustee may redeem all or any portion of the Bonds then outstanding, after giving the required notice under the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to the greater of:
(a) 100% of the principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, or
A-8
(b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of the principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding and interest thereon (exclusive of interest to the Redemption Date) discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points,
plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Interest, if any, to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).
(ii) On and after September 29, 2015, the Bonds shall be redeemable prior to Maturity at the option of the Owner Trustee, in whole or in part, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.
In the case of any redemption of Bonds, unpaid installments of interest maturing on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Bonds of record at the close of business on the relevant regular or subsequent Record Date referred to on the face hereof.
In the event any of the Bonds are called for redemption, the Indenture Trustee shall give notice, in the name of the Owner Trustee, of the redemption of such Bonds. Notice of redemption of Bonds (including redemption through the operation of the sinking fund with respect to any series) shall be given by firstclass mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, to each Holder of Bonds to be redeemed, at his address appearing on the Bond Register.
With respect to any notice of redemption of Bonds at the option of the Owner Trustee as described above, unless, upon the giving of such notice, such Bonds shall be deemed to have been paid within the meaning of the Indenture, such notice shall state that such redemption shall be conditional upon the receipt by the Indenture Trustee on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption of moneys sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on such Bonds to be redeemed, and that, if such moneys shall not have been so received, said notice shall be of no force and effect and the Owner Trustee shall not be required to redeem such Bonds. In the event that such notice of redemption contains such a condition and such moneys are not so received, the redemption shall not be made and the Indenture Trustee shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice, in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such moneys were not so received.
A-9
If a notice of redemption shall be unconditional, or if the conditions of a conditional notice of redemption shall have been satisfied, then upon presentation and surrender of Bonds so called for redemption at the corporate trust office of the Paying Agent, such Bonds shall be redeemed.
The Indenture provides that Bonds of a denomination larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part ($1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) and that upon any partial redemption of any such Bond the same may be surrendered at the corporate trust office of the Paying Agent in exchange for one or more new Bonds for the unredeemed portion thereof.
Bonds (or portions thereof as aforesaid) for whose redemption and payment provision is made in accordance with the Indenture shall thereupon cease to be entitled to the Lien of the Indenture and shall cease to bear interest from and after the date fixed for redemption.
If an Event of Default under the Indenture shall occur and be continuing, the principal of this Bond may, subject to certain rights of the Owner Trustee or the Owner Participant contained or referred to in the Indenture, become or be declared immediately due and payable, in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
Under certain circumstances, the Owner Trustee may make payments or perform obligations of KGE under the Indenture and the Lease. Exercise of the Owner Trustees limited right to cure would prevent the Indenture Trustee and the Holder hereof from exercising any remedies otherwise available under the Indenture as a result of KGEs failure to make such payments or perform such obligations.

For the purposes hereof, capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in (i) Appendix A to the Existing Participation Agreement, as amended by the Second Supplemental Participation Agreement, or (ii) the Second Supplemental Participation Agreement, as the case may be.

B. Subsection 3.1. Subsection 3.1 of the Existing Lease is hereby amended by adding after the last paragraph thereof the following new paragraphs:
(e) For purposes of Section 467 of the Code, Basic Rent during the Basic Term for the use of the Assets by Lessee during each Lease Period (Allocated Rent) shall be allocated to each Lease Period in the amount determined by multiplying the Purchase Price by the percentage set forth for such Lease Period on Schedule 3 hereto under the caption Allocated Rent. Allocated Rent shall be allocated to each calendar year in the Basic Term based on the assumption that each calendar year in the Basic Term has 360 days, consisting of twelve 30-day months. Allocated Rent for any Lease Period shall accrue ratably to each day within such Lease Period. Notwithstanding that Basic Rent is payable in accordance with subsection 3.1(a) hereof and without limiting Lessees payment obligations under subsection 3.1(a) hereof, the Allocated Rent calculated pursuant to this subsection 3.1(e), or as adjusted pursuant to subsection 3.1(g) hereof, shall represent and be the amount of Basic Rent for which Lessee becomes liable on account of the use of the Assets for each Lease Period included in whole or in part of the Basic Term.
(f) It is the intention of Lessor and Lessee that for purposes of Section 467 of the Code the Allocated Rent derived by multiplying the Purchase Price by the percentage set forth for each Lease Period on Schedule 3 hereto under the caption Allocated Rent constitutes a specific allocation of fixed rent within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.467-1(c)(2)(ii) with the effect that each of Lessor and Lessee shall accrue rental income and rental expense, respectively, in the amount equal to the Purchase Price multiplied by the percentage as set forth for each Lease Period under the column with the heading Allocated Rent on Schedule 3 hereto.
Lessor and Lessee agree that a prepaid or deferred rent balance may exist at certain times during the Basic Term. It is the intention of Lessor and Lessee that any such prepaid or deferred rent balance shall (A) in the case of a prepaid rent balance, give rise to a loan from Lessee to Lessor in the amount of any positive loan balance (the Lessor Loan Balance) computed by multiplying the percentage set forth in Schedule 4 hereto under the
5
caption Lessor Loan Balance by the Purchase Price, and in the case of a deferred rent balance, shall give rise to a loan from Lessor to Lessee in the amount of any negative loan balance (the Lessee Loan Balance) computed by multiplying the percentage set forth in Schedule 4 hereto under the caption Lessee Loan Balance by the Purchase Price and (B) such loan shall provide for adequate stated interest within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.467-2(b)(ii). If there shall be an outstanding Lessor Loan Balance, Lessor shall deduct interest expense and Lessee shall include interest income, in each case, in an amount equal to the product of the Purchase Price multiplied by the percentage set forth under the caption Interest Amount for the applicable period identified on Schedule 4 hereto. If there shall be an outstanding Lessee Loan Balance, Lessee shall deduct interest expense and Lessor shall include interest income, in each case, in an amount equal to the product of the Purchase Price multiplied by the percentage set forth under the caption Interest Amount for the applicable period identified on Schedule 4 hereto.
The obligations of Lessor to Lessee under this subsection 3.1(f) (including Lessors obligation with respect to any loan from Lessee as represented by any Lessor Loan Balance) are subject and subordinate to the obligations of Lessor under the Indenture, are payable exclusively from amounts distributable under clause third of Section 4.01 of the Indenture or clause fifth of Section 4.03 of the Indenture. Lessee acknowledges, consents and agrees to the subordination and other terms set forth in the previous sentence.
(g) In the event that the amount of fixed rent payable under the Lease is deemed to be less than or more than the aggregate amount of Basic Rent identified on Schedule 1 hereto (and such increase is deemed to be fixed rent within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.467-1(h)(3) or such decrease is deemed to be a decrease of fixed rent within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.467-1(h)(3)), the amount of Allocated Rent for each Lease Period shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, by an amount equal to the deemed increase or decrease in Basic Rent payments multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of Allocated Rent for such Lease Periods and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of Allocated Rent for all Lease Periods. The adjusted Allocated Rent shall constitute Allocated Rent for all purposes of this Lease.
6
C. Subsection 4.3. Subsection 4.3 of the Existing Lease is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof the following new subsection 4.3:
4.3. Adjustments for Alterations. Upon the occurrence of any payment or financing by Owner Participant and/or Lessor provided for in paragraph (c) of subsection 11.6, the amounts of Basic Rent, Allocated Rent, Section 467 Loan Balance and Casualty Value shall be adjusted in such manner as shall preserve Net After-Tax Return, taking into account any additional tax benefits actually realized by Lessor or Owner Participant arising out of the relevant Alterations or the financing thereof, while minimizing the present value of Basic Rent, except that, if Owner Participant is making any additional investment in connection therewith, such adjustment shall be made in such manner as shall be acceptable to Lessee and Owner Participant utilizing any pricing assumptions then agreed to by Lessee and Owner Participant with respect to such financing.
D. Subsection 4.5. Subsection 4.5 of the Existing Lease is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof the following new subsection 4.5:
4.5. Adjustments for Refinancing of the Bonds. In the event the Bonds are refinanced with Refunding Bonds pursuant to Section 17 of the Participation Agreement, then the Basic Rent, Allocated Rent, Casualty Value and Section 467 Loan Balance shall be adjusted by such amounts as shall preserve Net After-Tax Return while minimizing the present value of Basic Rent.
E. Subsection 4.8. Subsection 4.8 of the Existing Lease is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof the following new subsection 4.8:
4.8. Preservation of Net After-Tax Return. Whenever adjustments to Basic Rent, Allocated Rent, Section 467 Loan Balance and Casualty Value are to be made to preserve Net After-Tax Return, such adjustments shall be made in such manner that (a) each Component of Net After-Tax Return, as recomputed taking into consideration the circumstances which mandate such adjustments, is at least as great as when originally computed and (b) at least one Component of Net After-Tax Return, as so recomputed, is equal to the amount of such Component as originally computed in accordance with the assumptions specified in Schedule 1 to the Participation Agreement. In determining the present value of Basic Rent for purposes of this Section 4, a discount rate of 5.647% per annum shall be used, except that, with respect to any adjustment to Basic Rent pursuant to subsection 4.3 (and those portions of Basic Rent previously changed by such adjustments), the discount rate used at the time of the applicable payment or financing shall be utilized.
7
