series of such Bonds accordingly. The Series 2025 Bonds shall be dated as of the date
of delivery of such Series 2025 Bonds to the Underwriter; shall be issued as fully
registered Series 2025 Bonds; shall be in such denominations and shall bear interest at
a rate or rates not exceeding the maximum rate permifted by law, shall consist of such

BOOK ENTRY SYSTEM. Notwithstanding any provision of this Resolution to the
contrary, a book -entry system of registration is hereby authorized for the Series 2025
Bonds. So long as the SEOPW CRA shall maintain a book -entry only system with
respect to the Series 2025 Bonds, the following provisions shall apply: Upon initial
issuance, the ownership of each such Series 2025 Bond shall be registered in the
registration books kept by the Registrar in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC. A 13
blanket issuer lefter of representations (the "BLoR") was entered into by the SEOPW
CRA with The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"). It is intended that the Series 2025
Bonds be registered so as to participate in a global book -entry system with DTC as set
forth herein and in such BLoR. The terms and conditions of such BLoR shall govern the
registration of the Series 2025 Bonds. The Series 2025 Bonds shall be initially issued in
the form of a single fully registered Bond for each maturity of such Series. Upon initial
issuance, the ownership of such Series 2025 Bonds shall be registered by the Registrar
in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be
requested by an authorized representative of DTC. So long as any Series 2025 Bond is

File ID: 17453 Enactment Number: CRA-R-25-0014
registered in the name of DTC (or its nominee), the SEOPW CRA, the Registrar and the
Paying Agent may treat DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive holder of such
Series 2025 Bonds registered in its name, and all payments with respect to the principal
or redemption price of, if any, and interest on such Series 2025 Bond ("Payments") and
all notices with respect to such Series 2025 Bond ("Notices") shall be made or given, as
the case may be, to DTC. Transfers of Payments and delivery of Notices to DTC
Participants shall be the responsibility of DTC and not of the SEOPW CRA, subject to
any statutory and regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.
Transfers of Payments and delivery of Notices to beneficial owners of the Series 2025
Bonds by DTC Participants shall be the responsibility of such participants, indirect
participants and other nominees of such beneficial owners and not of the SEOPW CRA,
subject to any statutory and regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to
time. Upon (a) receipt by the SEOPW CRA of wriften notice from DTC (i) to the effect
that a continuation of the requirement that all of the Outstanding Series 2025 Bonds be
registered in the registration books kept by the Registrar in the name of Cede & Co., as
nominee of DTC, is not in the best interest of the beneficial owners of the Series 2025
Bonds or (ii) to the effect that DTC is unable or unwilling to discharge its responsibilities
and no substitute depository willing to undertake the functions of DTC hereunder can be
found which is willing and able to undertake such functions upon reasonable and
customary terms, (b) termination, for any reason, of the agreement among the SEOPW
CRA, the Registrar and Paying Agent and DTC evidenced by the BLoR, or (c)
determination by the SEOPW CRA that such book -entry only system should be
discontinued by the SEOPW CRA, and compliance with the requirements of any
agreement between the SEOPW CRA and DTC with respect thereto, the Series 2025
Bonds shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the registration books kept by
the Registrar in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, but may be registered in
whatever name or names Holders shall designate, in accordance with the provisions
hereof. In such event, the SEOPW CRA shall issue and the Registrar shall authenticate,
transfer and exchange Series 2025 Bonds consistent with the terms hereof, in
denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof to the Holders thereof. The
foregoing notwithstanding, until such time as participation in the book -entry only system
is discontinued, the provisions set forth in the BLoR shall apply to the registration and
transfer of the Series 2025 Bonds and to Payments and Notices with respect thereto. 14
