3.         On the Increase Effective Date, U.S. Bank National Association (the “Joining Lender”) will purchase a portion of the Series 2013C Bonds, Series 2013D Bonds, Series 2013E Bonds and Series 2014B Bonds, resulting in each Lender holding a share of such bonds.
 
4.         The Borrower has requested, and the Lenders wish to extend, on the Increase Effective Date, a $22,200,000 term loan to the Borrower on the terms set forth in the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement and subject to the conditions set forth herein (the “Incremental Commitment”), in the form of the purchase by the Lenders of the Issuer’s $22,200,000 Environmental Improvement Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2013A (AMT) (Southern Indiana Gas and Electric Company Project) (the “Series 2013A Bonds” and, together with the Series 2013C Bonds, the Series 2013D Bonds, the Series 2013E Bonds and the Series 2014B Bonds, the “Bonds”).
 
5.         The parties hereto desire to cause the Joining Lender to become a Lender under the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement and to make certain amendments to the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement as a result of the Joining Lender becoming a Lender under the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement and the Incremental Commitment.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows.
 

SECTION 1.  Joinder to Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement.  Effective as of the Increase Effective Date:
 
(a)       By its execution of this Joinder Agreement, the Joining Lender is becoming a Lender on the Increase Effective Date and hereby confirms and agrees that, on and after the Increase Effective Date, it shall be and become a party to the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement as a Lender, as indicated on Schedule 1.1(B) attached hereto, and shall have all of the rights and be obligated to perform all of the obligations of a Lender thereunder with the Commitments applicable to such Lender identified on Schedule 1.1(B) attached hereto.  On and after the Increase Effective Date, all references to the “Lenders” in the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement shall be deemed to include the Joining Lender.
 
(b)       On the Increase Effective Date, the Lenders (including the Joining Lender) will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned or to have assumed, as applicable, outstanding Commitments such that, after giving effect thereto, each Lender shall have its Commitment as set forth on Schedule 1.1(B) attached hereto together with its Ratable Share (as set forth therein) of the outstanding Bonds on such date.  On the Increase Effective Date, PNC shall receive from the Joining Lender such amounts determined by the Administrative Agent that are necessary to effectuate such assignments and assumptions of such outstanding Commitments (all to be made in accordance with the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement and as determined by the Administrative Agent), all with the same force and effect as if such assignments were evidenced by an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in accordance with the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement.
 
(c)       With respect to the Commitments, upon its receipt of payments of principal, interest and/or fees from the Borrower with respect to any period commencing prior to the Increase Effective Date and ending after such date, the Administrative Agent shall allocate such funds among the Lenders as appropriate to reflect the assignments and assumptions occurring on the Increase Effective Date (and it is understood, for avoidance of doubt, that on and after the Increase Effective Date, the Commitments shall be as set forth on Schedule 1.1(B) attached hereto).  The Borrower shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to payment of any such funds directly to any Lender other than to PNC Bank, National Association in its capacity as Administrative Agent.
 
(d)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement, no other documents or instruments, including any Assignment and Assumption Agreement, shall be executed in connection with any assignments (all of which requirements are hereby waived) necessary to achieve the allocations of Commitments and Ratable Shares set forth on Schedule 1.1(B) attached hereto and such assignments shall be deemed to be made with all applicable representations, warranties and covenants as if evidenced by an Assignment and Assumption Agreement.
 
(e)       For the avoidance of doubt, neither the effectiveness of this Joinder Agreement nor any of the transactions contemplated herein shall constitute a novation of any Obligations owing under the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement.  All Obligations outstanding under the existing Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement are in all respects continuing (as amended hereby) with the terms thereof being modified solely as provided in this Joinder Agreement.
 
2

(f)        The Lenders acknowledge that the Bond certificates for each of the Bonds shall be registered in the name of and held by PNC Bank, National Association, and PNC Bank, National Association agrees that it holds such Bonds as Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders.
