(formerly The Chase Manhattan Bank)), as trustee thereunder (the “Trustee”), as heretofore supplemented and as will be further supplemented by the authorizing resolutions of the Board of Managers of the Company relating to the Reopened Notes (the “Authorizing Resolutions”) (as so supplemented, the “Indenture”).

Concurrently with the Offer, the Company is soliciting (the “Solicitation”) consents (“Consents”) from holders of Ironwood Bonds, upon the terms set forth in the Offer and Solicitation Materials, to certain proposed amendments (collectively, the “Proposed Amendments”) to (1) the Ironwood Bonds, (2) the Ironwood Bonds Indenture, and (3) the Collateral Agency and Intercreditor Agreement among PPL Ironwood, The Bank of New York Mellon (as successor to IBJ Whitehall Bank & Trust Company), as trustee, The Bank of New York Mellon (as successor to IBJ Whitehall Bank & Trust Company), as collateral agent, and The Bank of New York Mellon (as successor to IBJ Whitehall Bank & Trust Company), as depositary bank (the “Collateral Agency Agreement”).

Promptly following the Expiration Date, if the Requisite Consents are delivered, (i) Ironwood and The Bank of New York Mellon as trustee will enter into a supplemental indenture (the “Ironwood Bonds Supplemental Indenture”) and (ii) The Bank of New York Mellon, in its separate capacities as trustee, collateral agent and depositary bank, will be directed to enter into an Amended and Restated Collateral Agency Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Collateral Agency Agreement”), in each case to give effect to the Proposed Amendments.

ANNEX A

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Annex A have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Dealer Manager Agreement to which this Annex A is attached (the “Agreement”).

The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Dealer Manager, its affiliates and its officers, directors, employees, agents of and each other entity or person, if any, controlling the Dealer Manager or any such other persons (each an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), joint or several, whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation to which the Dealer Manager (or any other Indemnified Person) may be a party, in each case as such expenses are incurred or paid, (i) arising out of or based upon (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Offer and Solicitation Materials, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (B) any breach by the Company of any representation or warranty or failure to comply with any of the agreements set forth in the Agreement or (C) any withdrawal, termination, rescission or modification of the Offer and Solicitation, or any failure by the Company to exchange Ironwood Bonds tendered pursuant to the Offer and pay for Consents delivered pursuant to the Solicitation or (ii) otherwise arising out of, relating to or in connection with or alleged to arise out of, relate to or be in connection with the Offer and Solicitation, the transactions contemplated by the Agreement or the engagement of, and services performed by, the Dealer Manager under the Agreement, or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceedings relating to the foregoing (“Proceedings”) regardless of whether any of such Indemnified Persons is a party thereto, and to reimburse such Indemnified Persons for any and all expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other out-of-pocket expenses) as they are incurred in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any of the foregoing, provided that the indemnification in clause (ii) above will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to the extent that they are finally judicially determined to have resulted primarily from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person; provided, further, that the indemnification in clauses (i) and (ii) above will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to the Dealer Manager furnished to the Company by the Dealer Manager in writing expressly for use in the Offer, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished in writing by and on behalf of the Dealer Manager consists of the following information in the Offer and Solicitation Materials: the names, addresses and telephone numbers of the Dealer Managers set forth on the back cover of each of the Registration Statement, Prospectus and Consent Solicitation Statement and Offer and Solicitation Materials.

If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and by such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, from the Offer and Solicitation, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the 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 the foregoing clause (i), but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of such Indemnified Person, on the other, in connection with the statements, actions, or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and by all Indemnified Persons, on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (i) the maximum aggregate value of the consideration proposed to be paid or payable by the Company for the exchange of Notes pursuant to the Offer and the delivery of Consents pursuant to the Solicitation, bears to

(ii) the aggregate fee paid to the Dealer Manager pursuant to Section 4(a) of the Agreement. The relative fault of the Company and of the Indemnified Persons (i) in the case of an untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or an omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether such statement or omission relates to information supplied by the Company or by such Indemnified Persons and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission, and (ii) in the case of any other action or omission, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether such action or omission was taken or omitted to be taken by the Company or by such Indemnified Persons and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to prevent such action or omission. The Company and the Dealer Manager agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Annex A were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses referred to in this paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.

Promptly after the receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any Proceedings, such Indemnified Person will, if a claim is to be made hereunder against the Company in respect thereof, notify the Company in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that (i) the failure to so notify the Company will not relieve it from any liability which it may have hereunder except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and (ii) the failure to so notify the Company will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In case any such Proceedings are brought against any Indemnified Person and it notifies the Company of the commencement thereof, the Company will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to such Indemnified Person, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, provided that if the defendants in any such Proceedings include both such Indemnified Person and the Company and such Indemnified Person shall have concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Company, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such Proceedings on behalf of such Indemnified Person. Upon receipt of notice from the Company to such Indemnified Person of their election so to assume the defense of such Proceedings and approval by such Indemnified Person of counsel, the Company shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person for expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) such Indemnified Person shall have employed separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the Company shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel), approved by J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such Proceedings), (ii) the Company shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person to represent such Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after notice to the Company of commencement of the Proceedings or (iii) the Company has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such Indemnified Person.

The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceedings effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with its written consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such Proceedings, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested the Company

to reimburse such Indemnified Person for legal or other expenses in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any Proceedings as contemplated by this Annex A, the Company shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceedings effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Company of such request for reimbursement and (ii) the Company shall not have reimbursed such Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceedings in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceedings and (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

The indemnity, reimbursement and contribution obligations of the Company under this Annex A shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to an Indemnified Person and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Company and any Indemnified Person.
