NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1.                                                    Acknowledgment of Ownership Interests and Security Interests.

(a)                                 Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges the ownership interest of the Initial Bond Issuer in the Initial Customer Property, including the Initial Customer Charges and the revenues, collections, claims, rights, payments, money and proceeds arising therefrom, and the security interests granted therein in favor of the Initial Bond Trustee for the

2

benefit of itself and the holders of the Initial Bonds.  Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges the ownership interest and security interests of the Buyer and the Receivables Lenders in the Receivables and the revenues, collections, claims, rights, payments, money and proceeds arising therefrom.  The parties hereto agree that the Initial Customer Property and the Receivables each shall constitute separate property rights notwithstanding that they may be evidenced by a single bill.  The Company and the Receivables Servicer further agree that they will not include the Initial Customer Property in calculating the amount of the Receivables sold or to be sold under the Receivables Agreements.  Accordingly, the Receivables Lenders and the Receivables Servicer each acknowledge that, notwithstanding anything in the Receivables Agreements to the contrary, none of such parties has any interest in the Initial Customer Property, and each of the Initial Bond Trustee, the Initial Bond Issuer and the Initial Property Servicer further acknowledge that, notwithstanding anything in the Initial Bond Agreements to the contrary, none of such parties has any interest in the Receivables.

(b)                                 Each of the Administrative Agent and the Buyer hereby releases all liens and security interests of any kind whatsoever which the Administrative Agent or Buyer may hold in the Initial Customer Property. Each of the Administrative Agent and Buyer agrees, upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Initial Bond Trustee, to execute and deliver to the Initial Bond Trustee such UCC partial release statements and other documents and instruments, and to do such other acts and things, as the Company or the Initial Bond Trustee may reasonably request in order to evidence the release provided for in this Section 1(b) and/or to execute and deliver to the Initial Bond Trustee UCC financing statement amendments to exclude the Initial Customer Property from the assets covered by any existing UCC financing statements relating to the Receivables; provided, however, that failure to execute and deliver any such partial release statements, financing statement amendments, documents or instruments, or to do such acts and things, shall not affect or impair the release provided for in this Section 1(b).

(c)                                  Each of the Initial Bond Issuer and the Initial Bond Trustee hereby releases all liens and security interests of any kind whatsoever which either of them may hold in the Receivables. Each of the Initial Bond Issuer and the Initial Bond Trustee agrees, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent or Buyer, to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent or Buyer, as applicable, such UCC partial release statements and other documents and instruments, and to do such other acts and things, as the Administrative Agent or Buyer may reasonably request in order to evidence the release provided for in this Section 1(c) and/or to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent or Buyer, as applicable, UCC financing statement amendments to exclude such Receivables from the assets covered by any existing UCC financing statements relating to the Initial Customer Property; provided, however, that failure to execute and deliver any such partial release statements, financing statement amendments, documents or instruments, or to do such acts and things, shall not affect or impair the release provided for in this Section 1(c).

SECTION 2.                                                    Deposit Accounts.

(a)                                 The parties hereto each acknowledge that collections with respect to the Initial Customer Property and the Receivables may from time to time be deposited into one or more

3

designated accounts of the Buyer (the “Buyer Accounts”) and that such Buyer Accounts are subject to a security interest of the Administrative Agent and account control agreements among the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and the applicable account bank. Further, the parties hereto each acknowledge that collections with respect to the Initial Customer Property and the Receivables may from time to time be deposited into one or more designated accounts of the Company or the Receivables Servicer (the “Company Accounts” and together with the Buyer Accounts, the “Deposit Accounts”). Subject to Section 4, the Company, in its capacity as a collection agent for the benefit of the other parties hereto, agrees to:

(i)                                     maintain the collections in the Deposit Accounts for the benefit of the Initial Property Servicer, the Initial Bond Trustee, the Initial Bond Issuer, the Receivables Servicer, the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and the Receivables Lenders, as their respective interests may appear, subject to the perfected security interest of the Administrative Agent in the Deposit Accounts and the provisions of the Receivables Agreements and this Agreement;

(ii)                                  allocate and remit funds from the Deposit Accounts (x) in the case of collections relating to the Initial Customer Property, at the times and in the manner specified in the Initial Bond Agreements to the Initial Bond Trustee; and (y) in the case of collections relating to the Receivables, allocate and remit funds to the Receivables Lenders and the Buyer at the times and in the manner specified in the Receivables Agreements; provided, that:

(A)                               with respect to each customer rate class, to the extent that any shortfall exists between the aggregate amount billed and the aggregate amount collected in the Deposit Accounts, such shortfall will be allocated between the Initial Customer Charges and the Receivables pursuant to the following formula: (x) the amount billed with respect to the Initial Customer Charge or Receivable, as applicable, minus (y)(1) the amount billed with respect to the Initial Customer Charge or Receivable, as applicable, multiplied by (2) the total amount collected, divided by the total amount billed; and

(B)                               late payment penalties of the Receivables shall be allocated (x) to the Receivables Lenders to the extent that any such late payment penalties have been pledged to the Receivables Lenders and (y) otherwise to the Company; and

(iii)                               maintain records as to the amounts deposited into the Deposit Accounts, the amounts remitted therefrom and the allocation as provided in subsection (a) above.

(b)                                 The Initial Bond Trustee, the Initial Bond Issuer, the Buyer and the Receivables Lenders shall each have the right to require an accounting from time to time of collections, deposits, allocations and remittances by the Company relating to the Deposit Accounts.  Because of difficulties inherent in allocating collections on a daily basis, the Initial Property Servicer may implement percentage-based estimates for the purposes of determining the amount of collections which are allocable to the Initial Customer Property, which allocations will be subject to monthly reconciliations but will otherwise be deemed conclusive, subject to reconciliation as provided in the following sentences.  In the event that

4

the estimated remittances to the Initial Bond Issuer for any calendar month are less than the actual amounts of Initial Customer Charge collections, the Initial Bond Issuer shall look to the Initial Property Servicer for any such shortfall and shall have no claims against the Receivables Lenders for such amounts.  In the event that the estimated remittances to the Initial Bond Issuer are greater than the actual amounts of Initial Customer Charge collections, the Initial Bond Issuer shall remit such excess collections (or net such excess collections in accordance with the following sentence) to the Initial Property Servicer for forwarding to the Receivables Lenders (or the Receivables Servicer) on their behalf in accordance with the terms of the Receivables Agreements.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this paragraph shall (i) eliminate the right of the Receivables Lenders and the Administrative Agent, as assignees of the Company under the Receivables Agreements, to cause any such reconciliation payments to be paid directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee or (ii) prohibit any party from netting any such reconciliation payments owing by such party (the “remitting party”) to another party (the “receiving party”) against the amounts to be paid hereunder to the remitting party by such receiving party.

(c)                                  The Initial Bond Trustee and the Initial Bond Issuer waive any interest in deposits to the Deposit Accounts to the extent that they are properly allocable to Collections with respect to Receivables, and the Administrative Agent and Buyer waive any interest in deposits to the Deposit Accounts to the extent that they are properly allocable to Initial Customer Charges. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges the respective security interests of the others in amounts on deposit in the Deposit Accounts to the extent of their respective interests as described in this Agreement.

(d)                                 In no event may the Initial Bond Trustee take any action with respect to the Initial Customer Charges in a manner that would result in the Initial Bond Trustee obtaining possession of, or any control over, Collections of Receivables or any Deposit Account.  In the event that the Initial Bond Trustee obtains possession of any Collections related to the Receivables, the Initial Bond Trustee shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, shall hold them in trust and shall promptly deliver them to the Administrative Agent (or its designees) upon request.  Except as contemplated by this Section 2 with respect to the Administrative Agent’s exercise of control over the Buyer Accounts, in no event may the Administrative Agent or Buyer take any action with respect to the collection of Receivables in a manner that would result in the Administrative Agent or Buyer, as applicable, obtaining possession of, or any control over, collections of Initial Customer Charges. In the event that the Buyer obtains possession of any collections of Initial Customer Charges, the Buyer shall notify the Initial Bond Trustee of such fact, shall hold them in trust and shall promptly deliver them to the Initial Bond Trustee upon request.

(e)                                  To the extent the Administrative Agent has exercised exclusive control over any Buyer Account, it shall allocate the funds on deposit therein related to the Initial Customer Property in accordance with the information provided to it by the Company and consistent with this Section 2, and shall remit such collections related to the Initial Customer Property at the direction of the Initial Bond Trustee. The Administrative Agent agrees to hold any Initial Customer Property that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee and/or gratuitous agent for the benefit of the Initial Bond Trustee and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security

5

interest granted in such Initial Customer Property pursuant to the Initial Sale Agreement and the Initial Indenture to the Initial Bond Trustee, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.  To the extent any Initial Customer Property is possessed by or is under the control of the Administrative Agent (either directly or through its agents or bailees), upon the request of the Initial Bond Trustee, the Administrative Agent shall deliver such Initial Customer Property to (or shall cause such Initial Customer Property to be delivered to) the Initial Bond Trustee and shall take all actions reasonably requested by the Initial Bond Trustee (at the expense of the Company) to cause the Initial Bond Trustee to have possession or control of same.  The duties or responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Section 2 shall be subject to Section 6 and shall be limited solely to holding the Initial Customer Property as gratuitous bailee and/or gratuitous agent for the benefit of the Initial Bond Trustee for purposes of perfecting the security interest held by the Initial Bond Trustee therein. The agreement of the Administrative Agent to act as gratuitous bailee and/or gratuitous agent pursuant to this Section 2 is intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 9-313(c) of the UCC.

SECTION 3.                                                    Time or Order of Attachment.  The acknowledgments contained in Sections 1 and 2 are applicable irrespective of the time or order of attachment or perfection of security or ownership interests or the time or order of filing or recording of financing statements or mortgages or filings under applicable law.
