To the extent permitted by and as provided in the Indenture, modifications or alterations of the Indenture, or of any indenture supplemental thereto, and of the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders and registered owners of bonds issued and to be issued thereunder may be made with the consent of the Company by an affirmative vote of the holders and registered owners of not less than 75% in principal amount of bonds then outstanding under the Indenture and entitled to vote, at a meeting of the bondholders called and held as provided in the Indenture, and, in case one or more but less than all of the series of bonds then outstanding under the Indenture are so affected, by an affirmative vote of the holders and registered owners of not less than 75% in principal amount of bonds of any series then outstanding under the Indenture and entitled to vote on and affected by such modification or alteration, or by the written consent of the holders and registered owners of such percentages of bonds; provided, however, that no such modification or alteration shall be made which shall reduce the percentage of bonds the consent of the holders or registered owners of which is required for any such modification or alteration or which shall affect the terms of payment of the principal of or interest on the bonds, or permit the creation by the Company of any lien prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Indenture with respect to any property subject to the lien of the Indenture as a first mortgage lien thereon, or which shall affect the rights of the holders or registered owners of less than all of the bonds of any series affected thereby.

The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, redeem at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Bonds, in an amount not less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding in the case of a partial redemption, at 100% of the principal amount so redeemed, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such redemption, plus the Make-Whole Amount (as defined in the Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture) determined for the redemption date with respect to such principal amount of each bond then outstanding.

Any redemption shall be effected by notice mailed to the registered owners thereof, as provided in the Indenture, at least thirty (30) days and not more than forty-five (45) days before the redemption date, all on the conditions and in the manner provided in the Indenture. Each such notice shall specify such date (which shall be a Business Day (as defined in the Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture)), the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed on such date, the principal amount of each bond held by such holder to be redeemed (determined in accordance with Article I, Section 3 of the Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture), and the interest to be paid on the redemption date with respect to such principal amount being redeemed, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of the chief financial officer, principal accounting officer, treasurer or comptroller (each, for purposes of this bond, a “Senior Financial Officer”) of the Company as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such redemption (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the redemption), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Bonds a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified redemption date.

If this bond or any portion hereof is called for redemption and payment thereof is duly provided for as specified in the Indenture, interest shall cease to accrue hereon or on such portion, as the case may be, from and after the redemption date. In the event of redemption of this bond in part only, a new bond for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the surrender hereof.

The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to its Maturity Date on the conditions, in the manner and with the effect set forth in the Indenture upon the happening of an event of default, as in the Indenture provided; subject, however, to the right, under certain circumstances, of the registered owners of a majority in principal amount of bonds then outstanding, including the Bonds, to annul such declaration.

The Company, the Trustee and any Paying Agent may deem and treat the registered owner of this bond as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and the interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

This bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof in person or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on books of the Company to be kept for that purpose at the designated office of the Trustee in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania upon surrender hereof for cancellation at such office and upon presentation of a written instrument of transfer duly executed, and thereupon the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee or transferees, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new bond or bonds in authorized denominations, of equal aggregate unpaid principal amount. Any such transfer or exchange shall be subject to the terms and conditions and to the payment of the charges specified in the Indenture.

 

10


No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or 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 any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either directly or through the Company, or through any such predecessor or successor corporation or through any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy, by virtue of any constitutional provision, statute or rule of law or equity, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; 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 registered owner hereof, as more fully provided in the Indenture.

This bond shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, or become valid or obligatory for any purpose, until The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N. A., as Trustee under the Indenture, or a successor trustee thereunder, shall have signed the certificate of authentication endorsed hereon.

This bond shall be deemed to be a contract and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (excluding laws governing conflicts of law).

As provided in the Indenture, the bonds may be issued in series for various principal amounts, may bear different dates and mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture provided or permitted. This bond is one of the bonds described in the Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture (the “Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture”) dated as of October 1, 2013, and designated therein as “First Mortgage Bond, 4.62% Series due 2046” in the aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000 (the “Bonds”).

Concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds, the Company is issuing its “First Mortgage Bond, 3.94% Series due 2031” in the aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000 and its “First Mortgage Bond, 4.61% Series due 2045” in the aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000.

To the extent permitted by and as provided in the Indenture, modifications or alterations of the Indenture, or of any indenture supplemental thereto, and of the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders and registered owners of bonds issued and to be issued thereunder may be made with the consent of the Company by an affirmative vote of the holders and registered owners of not less than 75% in principal amount of bonds then outstanding under the Indenture and entitled to vote, at a meeting of the bondholders called and held as provided in the Indenture, and, in case one or more but less than all of the series of bonds then outstanding under the Indenture are so affected, by an affirmative vote of the holders and registered owners of not less than 75% in principal amount of bonds of any series then outstanding under the Indenture and entitled to vote on and affected by such modification or alteration, or by the written consent of the holders and registered owners of such percentages of bonds; provided, however, that no such modification or alteration shall be made which shall reduce the percentage of bonds the consent of the holders or registered owners of which is required for any such modification or alteration or which shall affect the terms of payment of the principal of or interest on the bonds, or permit the creation by the Company of any lien prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Indenture with respect to any property subject to the lien of the Indenture as a first mortgage lien thereon, or which shall affect the rights of the holders or registered owners of less than all of the bonds of any series affected thereby.

The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, redeem at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Bonds, in an amount not less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding in the case of a partial redemption, at 100% of the principal amount so redeemed, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such redemption, plus the Make-Whole Amount (as defined in the Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture) determined for the redemption date with respect to such principal amount of each bond then outstanding.

 

21


Any redemption shall be effected by notice mailed to the registered owners thereof, as provided in the Indenture, at least thirty (30) days and not more than forty-five (45) days before the redemption date, all on the conditions and in the manner provided in the Indenture. Each such notice shall specify such date (which shall be a Business Day (as defined in the Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture)), the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed on such date, the principal amount of each bond held by such holder to be redeemed (determined in accordance with Article I, Section 3 of the Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture), and the interest to be paid on the redemption date with respect to such principal amount being redeemed, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of the chief financial officer, principal accounting officer, treasurer or comptroller (each, for purposes of this bond, a “Senior Financial Officer”) of the Company as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such redemption (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the redemption), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Bonds a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified redemption date.

If this bond or any portion hereof is called for redemption and payment thereof is duly provided for as specified in the Indenture, interest shall cease to accrue hereon or on such portion, as the case may be, from and after the redemption date. In the event of redemption of this bond in part only, a new bond for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the surrender hereof.

The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to its Maturity Date on the conditions, in the manner and with the effect set forth in the Indenture upon the happening of an event of default, as in the Indenture provided; subject, however, to the right, under certain circumstances, of the registered owners of a majority in principal amount of bonds then outstanding, including the Bonds, to annul such declaration.

The Company, the Trustee and any Paying Agent may deem and treat the registered owner of this bond as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and the interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

This bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof in person or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on books of the Company to be kept for that purpose at the designated office of the Trustee in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania upon surrender hereof for cancellation at such office and upon presentation of a written instrument of transfer duly executed, and thereupon the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee or transferees, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new bond or bonds in authorized denominations, of equal aggregate unpaid principal amount. Any such transfer or exchange shall be subject to the terms and conditions and to the payment of the charges specified in the Indenture.

 

22


No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or 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 any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either directly or 7through the Company, or through any such predecessor or successor corporation or through any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy, by virtue of any constitutional provision, statute or rule of law or equity, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; 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 registered owner hereof, as more fully provided in the Indenture.

This bond shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, or become valid or obligatory for any purpose, until The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N. A., as Trustee under the Indenture, or a successor trustee thereunder, shall have signed the certificate of authentication endorsed hereon.

This bond shall be deemed to be a contract and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (excluding laws governing conflicts of law).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. has caused this bond to be signed by its President or a Vice President and its corporate seal to be hereto affixed and attested by its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, and this bond to be dated                     .

ARTICLE I.

Form, Authentication and Delivery of the Bonds; Redemption Provisions

There shall be a sixty-fifth series limited in aggregate principal amount to $25,000,000 designated as “Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc., First Mortgage Bond, 3.94% Series due 2031”, a sixty-sixth series of bonds limited in aggregate principal amount to $25,000,000 designated as “Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc., First Mortgage Bond, 4.61% Series due 2045” and a sixty-seventh series of bonds limited in aggregate principal amount to $25,000,000 designated as “Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc., First Mortgage Bond, 4.62% Series due 2046”.

 

28


Interest on each Series of the Bonds shall be payable semiannually on May 1 and November 1 (each an “Interest Payment Date”) in each year commencing May 1, 2014. Each Bond shall be dated the date of its authentication and shall bear interest from the interest payment date next preceding the date of the authentication of such Bond (or if such Bond is authenticated after a Record Date as defined below and on or before the succeeding interest payment date, from such succeeding interest payment date, or if such Bond is authenticated on or prior to the record date for the first interest payment date for the Bonds, in which case it shall bear interest from the date of original issuance of the Bonds); provided, however, that, if at the time of authentication of any Bond, interest on the predecessor Bond of such Bond is in default, such Bond shall bear interest from the date to which interest has been paid, or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of original issuance thereof. The 3.94% Series due 2031 shall be stated to mature (subject to the right of earlier redemption at the prices and dates and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth) on November 1, 2031and shall bear interest at the rate of 3.94% per annum. The 4.61% Series due 2045 shall be stated to mature (subject to the right of earlier redemption at the prices and dates and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth) on November 1, 2045 and shall bear interest at the rate of 4.61% per annum. The 4.62% Series due 2046 shall be stated to mature (subject to the right of earlier redemption at the prices and dates and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth) on November 1, 2046 and shall bear interest at the rate of 4.62% per annum. Any payment of principal of or interest on any Bond that is due on a date other than a Business Day (as defined below) shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; provided that if the maturity date of any Bond is a date other than a Business Day, the payment otherwise due on such maturity date shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day. As used herein, “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which the Trustee, any paying agent or banks in New York, New York are not required or authorized by law or executive order to close.

The Bonds shall be issuable only as registered bonds without coupons, shall be in the form hereinabove recited, in the minimum denomination of $100,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be lettered “R”, and shall bear such numbers as the Company may reasonably require.

The principal of, and interest on the Bonds shall be payable as provided in the form of Bond, and shall be payable, along with interest on the Bonds, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts; each installment of interest shall be paid by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to instructions and conditions incorporated in an agreement between such person and the Trustee or the Company.

The person in whose name any Bond is registered at the close of business on any Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the cancellation of such Bond upon any transfer or exchange subsequent to the Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if and to the extent the Company shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, such defaulted interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names outstanding Bonds are registered at the close of business on a subsequent Record Date established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Company to the holders of Bonds not less than fifteen (15) days preceding such subsequent Record Date, such Record Date to be not less than ten (10) days preceding the date of payment of such defaulted interest. The term “Record Date” as used in this Section 1 with respect to any regular Interest Payment Date shall mean the fifteenth (15th) day of the calendar month preceding such Interest Payment Date.

Exchange of any Bonds shall be effected in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 of Article II of the Original Indenture.

 

29


The text of the Bonds and of the certificate of the Trustee upon such Bonds shall be, respectively, substantially of the tenor and effect hereinbefore recited.

SECTION 2. The Company may redeem the Bonds prior to maturity only as provided in this Section and upon payment of the redemption price specified in this Section. The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, redeem at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Bonds, in an amount not less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding in the case of a partial redemption, at 100% of the principal amount so redeemed, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such redemption, plus the Make-Whole Amount (as defined below) determined for the redemption date with respect to such principal amount of each Bond then outstanding. The Company will give each holder of Bonds and the Trustee written notice of each optional redemption under this Section 2 not less than 30 days and not more than 45 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date (which shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed on such date, the principal amount of each Bond held by such holder to be redeemed (determined in accordance with Section 3 below), and the interest to be paid on the redemption date with respect to such principal amount being redeemed, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of the chief financial officer, principal accounting officer, treasurer or comptroller (each, for purposes of this Article I, a “Senior Financial Officer”) of the Company as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such redemption (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the redemption), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Bonds and the Trustee a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified redemption date.

The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Bond, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Bond over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Bond, the principal of such Bond that is to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Bond, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Bonds is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Bond, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between the yields Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U. S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Bond.

 

30


If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Bond, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360 day year composed of twelve 30 day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Bond, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the Bonds, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to this Section 2.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Bond, the date on which such Called Principal is to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 2.

SECTION 3. In the case of each partial redemption of the Bonds, the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed shall be allocated among all of the Bonds at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to their respective unpaid principal amounts thereof.

SECTION 4. Any redemption of the Bonds shall be effected in accordance with the provisions of Article V of the Original Indenture.

 

31


SECTION 5. All Bonds deemed to have been paid in full as provided in Section 2 and 3 of this Article I of this Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture shall be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee shall forthwith cancel the same and, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and the Trustee’s policies and procedures, and on the written request of the Company, deliver the same to the Company.
