FIRSTENERGY NUCLEAR GENERATION, LLC

First Mortgage Bond, Guarantee Series F of 2016 due 2035

Due January 1, 2035

$60,000,000                                        No. R-1

FIRSTENERGY NUCLEAR GENERATION, LLC (formerly known as FirstEnergy Nuclear Generation Corp.), a limited liability company of the State of Ohio (herein, together with its successors and assigns, the “Company”), for value received promises to pay to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Revenue Bond Trustee”) under that certain Trust Indenture, dated as of April 1, 2006, as amended, between the Beaver County Industrial Development Authority and the Revenue Bond Trustee, securing $60,000,000 of Beaver County Industrial Development Authority Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2006-A (FirstEnergy Nuclear Generation Project) issued for the benefit of the Company (the “Revenue Bonds”) (such Trust Indenture, as amended from time to time, hereinafter the “Revenue Bond Indenture”), or registered assigns, on January 1, 2035, the principal sum of Sixty Million Dollars, and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount from the Initial Interest Accrual Date (as hereinafter defined) at the Revenue Bond Interest Rate (as hereinafter defined) per annum payable semi-annually on January 1 and July 1 in each year commencing on the January 1 or July 1 immediately succeeding the Initial Interest Accrual Date (each such date herein referred to as an “Interest Payment Date”) on and until maturity, or, in the case of any Bonds of this series duly called for redemption, on and until the redemption date, or in the case of any default by the Company in the payment of the principal due on any Bonds of this series, until the Company’s obligation with respect to the payment of such principal shall be discharged as provided in the Indenture (as hereinafter defined). The interest on each Bond of this series so payable on any Interest Payment Date shall, subject to the exceptions provided in Section 3.07 of the Indenture, be paid to the person in whose name such Bond is registered on the date of such payment. The principal of, and the interest on, this Bond shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company in the City of Cleveland, State of Ohio in any coin or currency of the United States of America which at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.










This Bond is one of an issue of Bonds of the Company known as its First Mortgage Bonds, issued and to be issued in one or more series under and secured by an Open-End Mortgage, General Mortgage Indenture and Deed of Trust, dated as of June 1, 2009, duly executed by the Company to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), and indentures supplemental thereto, heretofore or hereafter executed, including the Fifth Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 15, 2016 (as amended, supplemented, modified or restated, the “Supplemental Indenture”), to which Open-End Mortgage, General Mortgage Indenture and Deed of Trust and all indentures supplemental thereto (collectively referred to as the “Indenture”) reference is hereby made for a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the terms and conditions upon which such Bonds are, and are to be, issued and secured, and the rights of the owners of such Bonds and the Trustee in respect of such security. As provided in the Indenture, such Bonds may be in various principal sums, are issuable in series, may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary as therein provided; and this Bond is one Bond of a series entitled “First Mortgage Bonds, Guarantee Series F of 2016 due 2035,” created by the Supplemental Indenture, as provided for in the Indenture, and authorized for issuance in an aggregate principal amount of up to $60,000,000.

If and when the principal of any Revenue Bonds is paid, then there is deemed to be paid an equal principal amount of the Bonds of this series then outstanding; provided, however, that such payment of the Bonds of this series is deemed to be made only when and to the extent that notice of such payment of such Revenue Bonds is given by the Company to the Trustee.

The Bonds of this series have been delivered and pledged to the Revenue Bond Trustee pursuant to a Pledge Agreement, dated August 15, 2016, between the Company and the Revenue Bond Trustee (the “Pledge Agreement”), as security for the Revenue Bonds until the Release Date (as defined in the Pledge Agreement). The Bonds of this series shall be redeemed by the Company in whole at any time prior to maturity at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption following receipt by the Trustee of written demand for redemption (a “Redemption Demand”) from an authorized representative of the Revenue Bond Trustee under the Revenue Bond Indenture stating that the principal amount of all the Revenue Bonds then outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture has been declared due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.02 of the Revenue Bond Indenture, specifying the date of the accelerated maturity of such Revenue Bonds and the date or dates from which interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued and is unpaid (specifying the rate or rates of such accrual and the principal amount of the particular Revenue Bonds to which such rates apply), stating such declaration of maturity has not been annulled and demanding payment of the principal amount of the Bonds of this series plus accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for such redemption. The date fixed for such redemption shall be set forth in the aforesaid Redemption Demand and shall not be earlier than the date specified in such Redemption Demand as the date of accelerated maturity of the Revenue Bonds then outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture and not later than forty-five days after the Trustee’s receipt of such Redemption Demand unless such forty-fifth day is earlier than such date of accelerated maturity. The Revenue Bond Trustee as the sole holder of the Bonds of this series, and any successor thereto, hereby irrevocably waives any requirement of notice of such redemption under Section 5.04 of the Indenture. Upon receipt of the aforesaid Redemption Demand, the earliest date from which unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued (as specified by the Revenue Bond Trustee in the Redemption Demand) shall become the initial interest accrual date (the “Initial Interest Accrual Date”) with respect to the Bonds of this series; provided, however, on any demand for payment of the principal amount thereof at maturity as a result of the principal of the Revenue Bonds becoming due and payable on the maturity date of the Bonds of this series, the earliest date from which unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued shall become the Initial Interest Accrual Date with respect to the Bonds of this series, such date, together with each other different date from









which unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued, to be as stated in a written notice from the Revenue Bond Trustee to the Trustee, which notice shall also specify the rate or rates of such accrual and the principal amount of the particular Revenue Bonds to which such rate or rates apply. Such redemption shall become null and void for all purposes under the Indenture (including the fixing of the Initial Interest Accrual Date with respect to the Bonds of this series) upon receipt by the Trustee of written notice from the Revenue Bond Trustee of the annulment of the acceleration of the maturity of the Revenue Bonds then outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture and of the rescission of the aforesaid Redemption Demand prior to the redemption date specified in the Redemption Demand, and thereupon no redemption of the Bonds of this series and no payment in respect thereof as specified in the Redemption Demand, shall be effected or required. But no such rescission shall extend to any subsequent Redemption Demand from the Revenue Bond Trustee or impair any right consequent on any such subsequent Redemption Demand.

The “Revenue Bond Interest Rate” shall be the same rate of interest per annum as is borne by the Revenue Bonds; provided, however, that if there are different rates of interest borne by the Revenue Bonds, or if interest is required to be paid on the Revenue Bonds more frequently than on each January 1 or July 1, the Revenue Bond Interest Rate shall be the rate that results in the total amount of interest payable on an Interest Payment Date, a redemption date or at maturity, as the case may be, or at any other time interest on this Bond is due and payable, to be equal to the total amount of unpaid interest that has accrued on all then outstanding Revenue Bonds.

The principal of this Bond may be declared or may become due before the maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner and at the times set forth in the Indenture, upon the happening of an “Event of Default” as therein defined.

From and after the Release Date, the Bonds of this series shall be deemed fully paid, satisfied and discharged and the obligation of the Company thereunder shall be terminated. On the Release Date or promptly following, the Bonds of this series shall be surrendered to and cancelled by the Trustee.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or premium, or interest if any, on this Bond, or any part hereof, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof, or of the indebtedness represented hereby, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement under the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation (either directly or through the Company or a predecessor or successor corporation), whether by virtue of any constitutional provision, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability of incorporators, stockholders, officers and directors being released by the registered owner hereof by the acceptance of this Bond and being likewise waived and released by the terms of the Indenture.















This Bond is nontransferable except to (i) effect transfer to any successor to the Revenue Bond Trustee under the Revenue Bond Indenture, (ii) in connection with the exercise of the rights and remedies of the holder hereof consequent upon an “Event of Default” as defined in the Indenture or (iii) as may be necessary to comply with a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction in connection with any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding of the Company. But this Bond is exchangeable by the registered holder hereof, in person or by attorney duly authorized, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, any such permitted transfer or exchange to be made in the manner and upon the conditions prescribed in the Indenture, upon the surrender and cancellation of this Bond and the payment of any applicable taxes and fees required by law, and upon any such transfer or exchange a new registered Bond or Bonds of the same series and tenor, will be issued to the authorized transferee, or the registered holder, as the case may be. The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this Bond is registered as the absolute owner for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal and interest due hereon and for all other purposes.

This Bond shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee, or a successor Trustee or Authenticating Agent appointed pursuant to the Indenture.



























IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Bond to be executed in its name by the manual or facsimile signature of an Authorized Executive Officer and attested by the manual or facsimile signature of another Authorized Executive Officer.

FIRSTENERGY NUCLEAR GENERATION, LLC (formerly known as FirstEnergy Nuclear Generation Corp.), a limited liability company of the State of Ohio (herein, together with its successors and assigns, the “Company”), for value received promises to pay to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Revenue Bond Trustee”) under that certain Trust Indenture, dated as of November 15, 2010, between the Ohio Water Development Authority and the Revenue Bond Trustee, securing $54,600,000 of State of Ohio Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2010-B (FirstEnergy Nuclear Generation Corp. Project) issued for the benefit of the Company (the “Revenue Bonds”) (such Trust Indenture, as amended from time to time, hereinafter the “Revenue Bond Indenture”), or registered assigns, on June 1, 2033, the principal sum of Fifty-Four Million Six Hundred Thousand Dollars, and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount from the Initial Interest Accrual Date (as hereinafter defined) at the Revenue Bond Interest Rate (as hereinafter defined) per annum payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 in each year commencing on the June 1 or December 1 immediately succeeding the Initial Interest Accrual Date (each such date herein referred to as an “Interest Payment Date”) on and until maturity, or, in the case of any Bonds of this series duly called for redemption, on and until the redemption date, or in the case of any default by the Company in the payment of the principal due on any Bonds of this series, until the Company’s obligation with respect to the payment of such principal shall be discharged as provided in the Indenture (as hereinafter defined). The interest on each Bond of this series so payable on any Interest Payment Date shall, subject to the exceptions provided in Section 3.07 of the Indenture, be paid to the person in whose name such Bond is registered on the date of such payment. The principal of, and the interest on, this Bond shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company in the City of Cleveland, State of Ohio in any coin or currency of the United States of America which at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.











This Bond is one of an issue of Bonds of the Company known as its First Mortgage Bonds, issued and to be issued in one or more series under and secured by an Open-End Mortgage, General Mortgage Indenture and Deed of Trust, dated as of June 1, 2009, duly executed by the Company to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), and indentures supplemental thereto, heretofore or hereafter executed, including the Fifth Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 15, 2016 (as amended, supplemented, modified or restated, the “Supplemental Indenture”), to which Open-End Mortgage, General Mortgage Indenture and Deed of Trust and all indentures supplemental thereto (collectively referred to as the “Indenture”) reference is hereby made for a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the terms and conditions upon which such Bonds are, and are to be, issued and secured, and the rights of the owners of such Bonds and the Trustee in respect of such security. As provided in the Indenture, such Bonds may be in various principal sums, are issuable in series, may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary as therein provided; and this Bond is one Bond of a series entitled “First Mortgage Bonds, Guarantee Series G of 2016 due 2033,” created by the Supplemental Indenture, as provided for in the Indenture, and authorized for issuance in an aggregate principal amount of up to $54,600,000.

If and when the principal of any Revenue Bonds is paid, then there is deemed to be paid an equal principal amount of the Bonds of this series then outstanding; provided, however, that such payment of the Bonds of this series is deemed to be made only when and to the extent that notice of such payment of such Revenue Bonds is given by the Company to the Trustee.

The Bonds of this series have been delivered and pledged to the Revenue Bond Trustee pursuant to a Pledge Agreement, dated August 15, 2016, between the Company and the Revenue Bond Trustee (the “Pledge Agreement”), as security for the Revenue Bonds until the Release Date (as defined in the Pledge Agreement). The Bonds of this series shall be redeemed by the Company in whole at any time prior to maturity at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption following receipt by the Trustee of written demand for redemption (a “Redemption Demand”) from an authorized representative of the Revenue Bond Trustee under the Revenue Bond Indenture stating that the principal amount of all the Revenue Bonds then outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture has been declared due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.02 of the Revenue Bond Indenture, specifying the date of the accelerated maturity of such Revenue Bonds and the date or dates from which interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued and is unpaid (specifying the rate or rates of such accrual and the principal amount of the particular Revenue Bonds to which such rates apply), stating such declaration of maturity has not been annulled and demanding payment of the principal amount of the Bonds of this series plus accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for such redemption. The date fixed for such redemption shall be set forth in the aforesaid Redemption Demand and shall not be earlier than the date specified in such Redemption Demand as the date of accelerated maturity of the Revenue Bonds then outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture and not later than forty-five days after the Trustee’s receipt of such Redemption Demand unless such forty-fifth day is earlier than such date of accelerated maturity. The Revenue Bond Trustee as the sole holder of the Bonds of this series, and any successor thereto, hereby irrevocably waives any requirement of notice of such redemption under Section 5.04 of the Indenture. Upon receipt of the aforesaid Redemption Demand, the earliest date from which unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued (as specified by the Revenue Bond Trustee in the Redemption Demand) shall become the initial interest accrual date (the “Initial Interest Accrual Date”) with respect to the Bonds of this series; provided, however, on any demand for payment of the principal amount thereof at maturity as a result of the principal of the Revenue Bonds becoming due and payable on the maturity date of the Bonds of this series, the earliest date from which unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued shall become the Initial Interest Accrual Date with respect to the Bonds of this series, such date, together with each other different date from









which unpaid interest on the Revenue Bonds has then accrued, to be as stated in a written notice from the Revenue Bond Trustee to the Trustee, which notice shall also specify the rate or rates of such accrual and the principal amount of the particular Revenue Bonds to which such rate or rates apply. Such redemption shall become null and void for all purposes under the Indenture (including the fixing of the Initial Interest Accrual Date with respect to the Bonds of this series) upon receipt by the Trustee of written notice from the Revenue Bond Trustee of the annulment of the acceleration of the maturity of the Revenue Bonds then outstanding under the Revenue Bond Indenture and of the rescission of the aforesaid Redemption Demand prior to the redemption date specified in the Redemption Demand, and thereupon no redemption of the Bonds of this series and no payment in respect thereof as specified in the Redemption Demand, shall be effected or required. But no such rescission shall extend to any subsequent Redemption Demand from the Revenue Bond Trustee or impair any right consequent on any such subsequent Redemption Demand.

The “Revenue Bond Interest Rate” shall be the same rate of interest per annum as is borne by the Revenue Bonds; provided, however, that if there are different rates of interest borne by the Revenue Bonds, or if interest is required to be paid on the Revenue Bonds more frequently than on each June 1 or December 1, the Revenue Bond Interest Rate shall be the rate that results in the total amount of interest payable on an Interest Payment Date, a redemption date or at maturity, as the case may be, or at any other time interest on this Bond is due and payable, to be equal to the total amount of unpaid interest that has accrued on all then outstanding Revenue Bonds.

The principal of this Bond may be declared or may become due before the maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner and at the times set forth in the Indenture, upon the happening of an “Event of Default” as therein defined.

From and after the Release Date, the Bonds of this series shall be deemed fully paid, satisfied and discharged and the obligation of the Company thereunder shall be terminated. On the Release Date or promptly following, the Bonds of this series shall be surrendered to and cancelled by the Trustee.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or premium, or interest if any, on this Bond, or any part hereof, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof, or of the indebtedness represented hereby, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement under the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation (either directly or through the Company or a predecessor or successor corporation), whether by virtue of any constitutional provision, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability of incorporators, stockholders, officers and directors being released by the registered owner hereof by the acceptance of this Bond and being likewise waived and released by the terms of the Indenture.















This Bond is nontransferable except to (i) effect transfer to any successor to the Revenue Bond Trustee under the Revenue Bond Indenture, (ii) in connection with the exercise of the rights and remedies of the holder hereof consequent upon an “Event of Default” as defined in the Indenture or (iii) as may be necessary to comply with a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction in connection with any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding of the Company. But this Bond is exchangeable by the registered holder hereof, in person or by attorney duly authorized, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, any such permitted transfer or exchange to be made in the manner and upon the conditions prescribed in the Indenture, upon the surrender and cancellation of this Bond and the payment of any applicable taxes and fees required by law, and upon any such transfer or exchange a new registered Bond or Bonds of the same series and tenor, will be issued to the authorized transferee, or the registered holder, as the case may be. The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this Bond is registered as the absolute owner for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal and interest due hereon and for all other purposes.

This Bond shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee, or a successor Trustee or Authenticating Agent appointed pursuant to the Indenture.



























IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Bond to be executed in its name by the manual or facsimile signature of an Authorized Executive Officer and attested by the manual or facsimile signature of another Authorized Executive Officer.
