facsimile of whose signature shall appear on the Bonds shall

thereof only against the Bond Fund and the revenues pledged to                  
the Bond Fund, which revenues are hereby pledged and mortgaged                  
for the equal and ratable payment of the Bonds (principal,                      
premium, if any, and interest) and shall be used for no other                   
purpose than to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and                   
interest on the Bonds, except as may be otherwise expressly                     
authorized in this Indenture. The Bonds (including premium, if                  
any) and interest thereon shall not constitute an indebtedness of               
the County within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory                
provision and shall never constitute an obligation of or a charge

benefit under this Indenture.  No Bond shall be valid and                       
obligatory for any purpose unless and until such Certificate of                 
Authentication shall have been duly executed by the Trustee, and                
such Certificate of the Trustee upon any such Bond shall be                     
conclusive evidence that such Bond has been authenticated and                   
delivered under this Indenture.  The Trustee's Certificate of                   
Authentication on any Bond shall be deemed to have been executed                
if signed by an authorized officer of the Trustee, but it shall                 
not be necessary that the same officer sign the Certificate of                  
Authentication on all of the Bonds issued hereunder.

mails not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60)                   
days prior to the date fixed for redemption; provided, however,                 
that failure to give such notice by mailing, or any defect                      
therein, shall not affect the validity of any proceeding for the                
redemption of any Bond with respect to which no such failure or                 
defect has occurred.

received, such notice shall be of no force and effect, the County               
shall not redeem such Bonds and the Trustee shall give notice, in

portions thereof to be redeemed, together with accrued interest                 
thereon to the redemption date and any required premium.  Upon                  
the giving of notice and the deposit of funds for redemption,                   
interest on the Bonds or portions thereof thus redeemed shall no

the manner and to the extent herein specified. Anything in this

funds or assets.

the Trustee covenant that neither of them shall take any action

whichcauses or may cause the interest payable on the Bonds to be                
includable in gross income for purposes of federal income                       
taxation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the

(whether such moneys were derived from the proceeds of the sale                 
of the Bonds or from other sources) will not be used in a manner                
which would cause the Bonds to be treated as "arbitrage bonds"                  
within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code, and (b) all action               
with respect to the Bonds required by Section 148(f) of the Code

entitled to vote or consent.  So long as no Event of Default                    
hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing, either at any                  
such meeting or meetings, or otherwise when the consent of the                  
holders of the Company's first mortgage bonds issued under the                  
Company Mortgage is sought without a meeting, the Trustee shall                 
vote as the holder of the First Mortgage Bonds, or shall consent                
with respect thereto, proportionately with what the Trustee                     
reasonably believes will be the vote or consent of the holders of               
all other first mortgage bonds of the Company then outstanding                  
under the Company Mortgage the holders of which are eligible to                 
vote or consent; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not                  
vote as such holder in favor of, or give its consent to, any                    
amendment or modification of the Company Mortgage which is                      
correlative to any amendment or modification of this Indenture                  
referred to in Section 1202 hereof without the prior consent and

of bondholders which would be required under said Section 1202                  
for such correlative amendment or modification of this Indenture.

provisions of this Section 409 shall be binding upon the County                 
and the bondholders.

havebecome due and payable and shall not have been fully paid,

redemption of Bonds of any series (other than at the direction of               
the Company), except for provisions which establish sinking fund                
redemption requirements, the Trustee shall forthwith give notice                
thereof to the Company Mortgage Trustees specifying the principal               
amount of Bonds so to be redeemed and the redemption date

Trustee shall incur no liability for failure to give any such                   
notice and such failure shall have no effect on the obligations                 
of the Company on the First Mortgage Bonds or on the rights of                  
the Trustee or of the bondholders.

interest thereon, shall forthwith cease, determine and be

Trustee to hold such fund or funds, without liability for                       
interest thereon, for benefit of the holder of such Bond, who                   
shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such fund or funds

understood and agreed that pursuant to the provisions of Section                
5.05 of the Sale Agreement, the Company agrees to pay the                       
Administration Expenses of the County.  All such payments under

paid into the Bond Fund, but shall be segregated by the Trustee                 
and expended solely for the purpose for which such payments are                 
received.

required to be deposited with or paid to the Trustee for deposit

of this Indenture and all moneys withdrawn from the Bond Fund and               
held by any Paying Agent, shall be held by the Trustee or such                  
Paying Agent in trust, and except for moneys deposited with or                  
paid to the Trustee for the redemption of Bonds, notice of which

Trust Estate and be subject to the lien hereof.  Any moneys                     
received by or paid to the Trustee pursuant to any provisions of                
the Sale Agreement calling for the Trustee to hold, administer                  
and disburse the same in accordance with the specific provisions                
of the Sale Agreement shall be held, administered and disbursed                 
pursuant to such provisions, and where required by the provisions               
of the Sale Agreement the Trustee shall set the same aside in a                 
separate account.  The County agrees that if it shall receive any               
moneys pursuant to applicable provisions of the Sale Agreement,                 
it will forthwith upon receipt thereof pay the same over to the                 
Trustee to be held, administered and disbursed by the Trustee in                
accordance with the provisions of the Sale Agreement pursuant to                
which the County may have received the same.  Furthermore, if for               
any reason the Sale Agreement ceases to be in force and effect                  
while any Bonds are outstanding, the County agrees that if it                   
shall receive any moneys derived from the Facilities, it will                   
forthwith upon receipt thereof pay the same over to the Trustee                 
to be held, administered and disbursed by the Trustee in                        
accordance with provisions of the Sale Agreement that would be                  
applicable if the Sale Agreement were then in force and effect,                 
and if there be no such provisions which would be so applicable,                
then the Trustee shall hold, administer and disburse such moneys                
solely for the discharge of the County's obligations under this                 
Indenture.                                                                      

Section 508.  Refund to Company of Excess Payments.         
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee is                 
authorized and directed to refund to the Company all excess                     
amounts as specified in the Sale Agreement, whether such excess                 
amounts be in the Bond Fund or in special accounts.

delivery thereof paid by the original purchaser or purchasers                   
thereof, shall be deposited into the Capital Account established

Investment Account maintained in respect of any series of Bonds                 
shall be deposited into the Investment Account for such series of

of Construction paid by it, all in accordance with and pursuant                 
to the provisions of the Sale Agreement.  The Trustee shall keep                
and maintain adequate records pertaining to each account within                 
the Construction Fund and all disbursements therefrom and shall                 
file an accounting thereof if and when requested by the County or               
the Company.

remaining in the Capital Account or the Investment Account

Bonds (except for amounts retained by the Trustee at the                        
Company's direction for Cost of Construction not then due and                   
payable), shall at the direction of the Company be transferred by               
the Trustee into the Bond Fund; provided, however, no amount                    
shall be transferred into the Bond Fund unless an amount equal to               
at least 95% of the sum of the net proceeds of such series of                   
Bonds (within the meaning of Section 142(a) of the Code), and the               
total amount of moneys accrued in the Investment Account and the                
investment income expected to be received from amounts so                       
deposited in the Bond Fund, have been used (i) for the                          
acquisition, construction, reconstruction or improvement of land                
or property of a character subject to the allowance for                         
depreciation under Section 167 of the Code, or for payment of                   
amounts which are, for federal income tax purposes, chargeable to               
the Facilities' capital account (for example, underSection 263 of               
the Code) or would be so chargeable either with a proper election               
by the Company or but for a proper election by the Company to                   
deduct such amounts, and (ii) to provide sewage or solid waste                  
disposal facilities within the meaning of Section 142(a)(5) or                  
(6) of the Code and regulations thereunder, provided that the                   
moneys paid from the Investment Account shall be disregarded for                
purposes of the foregoing computation if the Company shall have                 
submitted to the Trustee an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect               
that such moneys may be so disregarded without impairing the                    
exemption from federal income taxes of interest on the Bonds.                   
Any amount not transferred into the Bond Fund as provided above                 
(exclusive of amounts retained by the Trustee in the Construction               
Fund for payment of Costs of Construction not then due and                      
payable) shall be segregated by the Trustee and used by the                     
Trustee for (a) the redemption of Bonds of the same series of                   
Bonds from which such moneys were derived on or prior to the                    
earliest redemption date permitted by this Indenture without a                  
premium or penalty in accordance with the provisions of this                    
Indenture; or (b) the payment of a portion of the annual                        
principal due on Bonds of the same series from which such moneys                
were derived (i) in years before such Bonds are subject to                      
redemption without premium or penalty, or (ii) in years when such               
Bonds are subject to redemption without premium or penalty but                  
only in an amount in excess of the unexpended proceeds of such                  
Bonds, provided, however, that the portion of the annual                        
principal payment, if any, due on such Bonds that may be paid                   
hereunder shall not exceed an amount that bears the same ratio to               
the annual principal due that the total unexpended proceeds of                  
such Bonds (exclusive of investment earnings) bear to the face                  
amount of such Bonds; or (c) any other purpose provided that the                
Trustee is furnished with an opinion of Bond Counsel to the                     
effect that such use is lawful under the Act and will not                       
adversely affect the exclusion of interest on any of the Bonds                  
from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation.  Until               
used for one or more of the foregoing purposes, such segregated                 
amount may be invested as permitted by this Indenture but may not               
be invested, without an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect                   
that such investment will not adversely affect the exclusion of                 
interest on any of the Bonds from gross income for purposes of                  
federal income taxation, to produce a yield greater than the                    
yield on the Bonds, all in accordance with Section 148 of the                   
Code and regulations thereunder.

respect of such series of Bonds, or both, and deposit into the                  
Bond Fund amounts in the aggregate not exceeding the aggregate

the principal of the Bonds shall have become due and payable

602 hereof, any profit and income realized from such investments

under this Article VII shall be subject to the following:                       

(a)  In the event that the County or the Company is of      
the opinion that it is necessary or advisable to restrict or                    
limit the yield on the investment of any moneys held in the                     
Construction Fund, the Bond Fund or any other fund in order to                  
avoid the Bonds being considered "arbitrage bonds" within the                   
meaning of Section 148 of the Code, or any proposed, temporary or               
final regulations thereunder as such regulations may apply to                   
obligations issued as of the date of original issuance and                      
delivery of the Bonds, the County or the Company may issue to the               
Trustee a written certificate to such effect together with                      
appropriate written instructions, in which event the Trustee                    
shall take such action as is necessary so as to restrict or limit               
the yield on such investment in accordance with such certificate                
and instructions, irrespective of whether the Trustee shares such               
opinion.                                                                        

(b)  The Trustee shall establish and maintain within        
the Bond Fund, the Construction Fund or any other fund, in                      
respect of each series of Bonds issued hereunder, a separate                    
account into which shall be deposited as and when received any                  
amounts which are subject or could be subject to rebate to the                  
United States under Section 148(f)(6) of the Code, which amounts                
shall be held in such separate accounts until paid to the United                
States pursuant to said Section or until the Trustee determines                 
that no such payment is required.  Moneys in such separate                      
account within the Construction Fund shall be subject to prior                  
withdrawal to pay the Cost of Construction in accordance with the               
provisions of the Sale Agreement; provided, however, that no                    
withdrawal shall be permitted unless and until (i) all other                    
moneys in the Construction Fund, together with any other moneys                 
constituting gross proceeds (within the meaning of Section 148(f)               
of the Code) have first been so used within six (6) months of the               
date of issuance of the Bonds as provided in Section 148(f)(4)(B)               
of the Code, or (ii) the Company shall furnish an opinion of Bond               
Counsel to the Trustee to the effect that such moneys will not be               
subject to rebate to the United States under Section 148(f) of                  
the Code and regulations thereunder.                                            

(c)  The County and the Trustee shall not make or agree     
to make any payments or participate in any non-arms-length                      
transaction which would have the effect of reducing the earnings                
on investments, thereby reducing the amount required to be                      
rebated to the United States under Section 148(f) of the Code and               
regulations thereunder.                                                         

(d)  The Company has undertaken in the Sale Agreement       
to make the determinations required by paragraph (b) of this                    
Section 702 and to provide statements to the Trustee to the                     
effect that all actions with respect to the Bonds required by                   
Section 148(f) of the Code has been taken.  The Trustee shall be                
entitled to rely upon such determinations and statements as                     
sufficient evidence of the facts therein contained.

enforce the rights of the Trustee and of the bondholders under                  
this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled, as a matter of                   
right, to the appointment of a receiver or receivers of the Trust               
Estate and of the tolls, rents, revenues, issues, earnings,                     
income,  products and profits thereof, pending such proceedings                 
with such powers as the court making such appointment shall                     
confer.                                                                         

Section 1006.  Waiver.  In case of an Event of Default      
on the part of the County, as aforesaid, to the extent that such                
rights may then lawfully be waived, neither the County nor anyone               
claiming through it or under it shall or will set up, claim, or                 
seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay,                    
extension or redemption laws now or hereafter in force, in order                
to prevent or hinder the enforcement of this Indenture, but the                 
County, for itself and all who may claim through or under it,                   
hereby waives, to the extent that it lawfully may do so, the                    
benefit of all such laws and all right of appraisement and                      
redemption to which it may be entitled under the laws of the                    
State of Arkansas.                                                              

Section 1007.  Application of Moneys.  Available moneys     
remaining after discharge of costs, charges and liens prior to                  
this Indenture shall be applied by the Trustee as follows:                      

(a)  Unless the principal of all the Bonds shall have       
become due and payable, all such moneys shall be applied:                       

First:  To the payment to the persons entitled thereto      
of all installments of interest then due, in the order of the                   
maturity of the installments of such interest, and, if the amount               
available shall not be sufficient to pay in full any particular                 
installment, then to the payment ratably, according to the                      
amounts due on such installment, to the persons entitled thereto,               
without any discrimination or privilege;                                        

Second:  To the payment to the persons entitled thereto     
of the unpaid principal of any of the Bonds which shall have                    
become due (other than Bonds called for redemption for the                      
payment of which moneys are held pursuant to the provisions of                  
this Indenture), in the order of their due dates, with interest                 
on such Bonds from the respective dates upon which they become                  
due, and, if the amount available shall not be sufficient to pay                
in full Bonds due on any particular date, together with such                    
interest, then to the payment ratably, according to the amount of               
principal due on such date, to the persons entitled thereto                     
without any discrimination or privilege of any Bond over any                    
other Bond and without preference or priority of principal over                 
interest or of interest over principal; and                                     

Third:  To the payment of the interest on and the           
principal of the Bonds, and to the redemption of Bonds, all in                  
accordance with the provisions of Article V of this Indenture.                  

(b)  If the principal of all the Bonds shall have           
become due and payable, all such moneys shall be applied to the                 
payment of the principal and interest then due and unpaid upon                  
the Bonds, without preference or priority of principal over                     
interest or of interest over principal, or of any Bond over any                 
other Bond, ratably, according to the amounts due respectively                  
for principal and interest, to the person entitled thereto                      
without discrimination or privilege.                                            

(c)  If the principal of all the Bonds shall have           
become due and payable, and if acceleration of the maturity of                  
the Bonds by reason of an Event of Default shall thereafter have                
been rescinded and annulled under the provisions of this Article                
then, subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section                
in the event that the principal of all the Bonds shall later                    
become due and payable, the moneys shall be applied in accordance               
with the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Section.                           

Whenever moneys are to be applied by the Trustee            
pursuant to the provisions of this Section, such moneys shall be                
applied by it at such times, and from time to time, as it shall                 
determine, having due regard to the amount of such moneys                       
available for application and the likelihood of additional moneys               
becoming available for such application in the future.  Whenever                
the Trustee shall apply such funds, it shall fix the date (which                
shall be an interest payment date unless it shall deem another                  
date more suitable) upon which such application is to be made and               
upon such date interest on the amounts of principal to be paid on               
such dates shall cease to accrue.  The Trustee shall give such                  
notice as it may deem appropriate of the deposit with it of any                 
such moneys and of the fixing of any such date and shall not be                 
required to make payment to the holder of any Bond until such                   
Bond shall be presented to the Trustee for appropriate                          
endorsement or for cancellation if fully paid.                                  

Section 1008.  Remedies Vested in Trustee.  All rights      
of action (including the right to file proof of claim) under this               
Indenture or under any of the Bonds may be enforced by the                      
Trustee without the possession of any of the Bonds or the                       
production thereof in any trial or other proceeding relating                    
thereto and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee               
shall be brought in its name as Trustee, without the necessity of               
joining as plaintiffs or defendants any holders of the Bonds                    
hereby secured, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the                   
equal benefit of the holders of the outstanding Bonds.                          

Section 1009.  Rights and Remedies of Bondholders.  No      
holder of any Bond shall have any right to institute any suit,                  
action or proceeding in equity or at law for the enforcement of                 
this Indenture or for the execution of any trust hereof or for                  
the appointment of a receiver or any other remedy hereunder,                    
unless a default has occurred of which the Trustee has been                     
notified as provided in subsection (g) of Section 1101, or of                   
which by said subsection it is deemed to have notice, nor unless                
such default shall have become an Event of Default and the                      
holders of twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal                     
amount of Bonds outstanding hereunder shall have made written                   
request to the Trustee and shall have offered it reasonable                     
opportunity either to proceed to exercise the powers hereinbefore               
granted or to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its                  
own name, nor unless also they have offered to the Trustee                      
indemnity as provided in Section 1101 nor unless the Trustee                    
shall thereafter fail or refuse to exercise the powers                          
hereinbefore granted, or to institute such action, suit or                      
proceeding in its own name; and such notification, request and                  
offer of indemnity are hereby declared in every such case at the                
option of the Trustee to be conditions precedent to the execution               
of the powers and trusts of this Indenture, and to any action or                
cause of action for the enforcement of this Indenture or for the                
appointment of a receiver or for any other remedy hereunder; it                 
being understood and intended that no one or more holders of the                
Bonds shall have any right in any manner whatsoever to affect,                  
disturb or prejudice the lien of this Indenture by his or their                 
action or to enforce any right hereunder except in the manner                   
herein provided, and that all proceedings at law or in equity                   
shall be instituted, held and maintained in the manner herein                   
provided for the equal benefit of the holders of all Bonds                      
outstanding hereunder.  Nothing in this Indenture contained                     
shall, however, affect or impair the right of any bondholders to                
enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Bonds               
at and after the maturity thereof, or the obligation of the                     
County to pay the principal of and interest on each of the Bonds                
issued hereunder to the respective holders thereof at the time                  
and place in said Bonds expressed.                                              

Section 1010.  Termination of Proceedings.  In case the     
Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this                    
Indenture by the appointment of a receiver or otherwise, and                    
suchproceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any               
reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee,                 
then and in every such case the County and the Trustee shall be                 
restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with                    
respect to the property herein conveyed, and all rights, remedies               
and powers of the Trustee shall continue as if no such                          
proceedings had been taken, except to the extent the Trustee is                 
legally bound by such adverse determination.                                    

Section 1011.  Waivers of Events of Default.  The           
provisions of Article X are subject to the condition that any                   
waiver of any "Default" under the Company Mortgage and a                        
rescission and annulment of its consequences shall constitute a                 
waiver of the corresponding Event or Events of Default under                    
clause (c) of the first paragraph of Section 1001 hereof and a                  
rescission and annulment of the consequences thereof, but no such               
waiver, rescission and annulment shall extend to or affect any                  
subsequent Event of Default or impair any right or remedy                       
consequent thereon.

hereby accepts the trust imposed upon it by this Indenture, and                 
agrees to perform said trust (i) except during the continuance of               
an Event of Default as an ordinarily prudent trustee under a                    
corporate mortgage, and (ii) during the continuance of an Event                 
of Default, with the same degree of care and skill in the                       
exercise of its rights hereunder as a prudent man would exercise                
or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his affairs, but               
only upon and subject to the following expressed terms and                      
conditions:                                                                     

(a)  The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or           
powers hereof and perform any duties required of it by or through               
attorneys, agents, receivers or employees, and shall be entitled                
to advice of counsel concerning all matters of trusts hereof and                
its duties hereunder, and may in all cases pay reasonable                       
compensation to all such attorneys, agents, receivers and                       
employees as may reasonably be employed in connection with the                  
trusts hereof.  The Trustee may act upon the opinion or advice of

the County prior to the occurrence of a default of which the                    
Trustee has been notified as provided in subsection (g) of this                 
Section 1101, or of which by said subsection the Trustee is                     
deemed to have notice, approved by the Trustee in the exercise of               
such care.  The Trustee shall not be responsible for any loss or                
damage resulting from an action or non-action in accordance with                
any such opinion or advice.                                                     

(b)  The Trustee shall not be responsible for any           
recital herein, or in the Bonds (except in respect to the                       
certificate of the Trustee endorsed on such Bonds), or for                      
insuring the property herein conveyed or collecting any insurance               
moneys, or for the validity of the execution by the County of                   
this Indenture or of any supplemental indentures or instrument of               
further assurance, or for the sufficiency of the security for the               
Bonds issued hereunder or intended to be secured hereby, or for                 
the value of the title of the property herein conveyed or                       
otherwise as to the maintenance of the security hereof; except                  
that in the event the Trustee enters into possession of a part or               
all of the property herein conveyed pursuant to any provision of                
this Indenture, it shall use due diligence in preserving such                   
property; and the Trustee shall not be bound to ascertain or                    
inquire as to the performance or observance of any covenants,                   
conditions and agreements aforesaid as to the condition of the                  
property herein conveyed.                                                       

(c)  The Trustee may become the owner of Bonds secured      
hereby with the same rights which it would have if not Trustee.                 

(d)  The Trustee shall be protected in acting upon any      
notice, request, consent, certificate, order, affidavit, letter,                
telegram or other paper or document believed by it, in the                      
exercise of reasonable care, to be genuine and correct and to                   
have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons.  Any                  
action taken by the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture upon the                 
request or authority or consent of the owner of any Bond secured                
hereby, shall be conclusive and binding upon all future owners of               
the same Bond and upon Bonds issued in exchange therefor or in                  
place thereof.                                                                  

(e)  As to the existence or non-existence of any fact       
or as to the sufficiency or validity of any instrument, paper or                
proceeding, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon a                        
certificate of the County signed by its County Judge and attested               
by the Clerk of the County, as sufficient evidence of the facts                 
therein contained and prior to the occurrence of a default of                   
which it has been notified as provided in subsection (g) of this                
Section 1101, or of which by that subsection it is deemed to have               
notice, and shall also be at liberty to accept a similar                        
certificate to the effect that any particular dealing,                          
transaction or action is necessary or expedient, but may at its                 
discretion, at the reasonable expense of the County, in every                   
case secure such further evidence as it may think necessary or                  
advisable but shall in no case be bound to secure the same.  The                
Trustee may accept a certificate of the Clerk of the County under               
its seal to the effect that a resolution or ordinance in the form               
therein set forth has been adopted by the County as conclusive                  
evidence that such resolution or ordinance has been duly adopted,               
and is in full force and effect.                                                

(f)  The permissive right of the Trustee to do things       
enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty of                
the Trustee.                                                                    

(g)  The Trustee shall not be required to take notice       
or be deemed to have notice of any default hereunder (except a                  
default under clause (a) or (b) of the first paragraph of                       
Section 1001 hereof concerning which the Trustee shall be deemed                
to have notice) unless the Trustee shall be specifically notified               
in writing of such default by the County or by the holders of at                
least ten percent (10%) in aggregate principal amount of Bonds                  
outstanding hereunder and all notices or other instruments                      
required by this Indenture to be delivered to the Trustee must,                 
in order to be effective, be delivered to the office of the                     
Trustee, and in the absence of such notice so delivered, the                    
Trustee may conclusively assume there is no such default except                 
as aforesaid.                                                                   

(h)  The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any

of contracts during any period in which it may be in the

(i)  At any and all reasonable times the Trustee, and       
its duly authorized agents, attorneys, experts, engineers,                      
accountants and representatives, shall have the right fully to

all books, papers and records of the County pertaining to the                   
Facilities and the Bonds, and to take such memoranda  from and in               
regard thereto as may be desired, provided, however, that nothing               
contained in this subsection or in any other provision of this                  
Indenture shall be construed to entitle the above named persons                 
to any information or inspection involving the confidential                     
know-how of the Company.                                                        

(j)  The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond     
or surety in respect of the execution of the said trusts and                    
powers or otherwise in respect of the premises.                                 

(k)  Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in this

other information, or corporate action or evidence thereof, in                  
addition to that by the terms hereof required as a condition of                 
such action by the Trustee, deemed desirable for the purpose of                 
establishing the right of the County to the authentication of any               
Bonds, the withdrawal of any cash, the release of any property,                 
or the taking of any other action by the Trustee.                               

(l)  Before taking such action hereunder, the Trustee       
may require that it be furnished an indemnity bond satisfactory                 
to it for the reimbursement to it of all expenses to which it may               
be put and to protect it against all liability, except liability                
which is adjudicated to have resulted from the negligence or                    
willful default of the Trustee, by reason of any action so taken                
by the Trustee.

other expenses reasonably and necessarily made or incurred in and

Indenture, including the obligations set forth in this Section                  
1102, but nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting                      
theCounty from using any other funds and revenues for the payment               
of any of its obligations under this Indenture.  Upon an Event of               
Default, but only upon an Event of Default, the Trustee and the                 
Paying Agents shall have a first lien with right of payment prior

advances, fees, costs and expenses incurred by them respectively.               

Section 1103.  Notice to Bondholders of Default.  The       
Trustee shall be required to make demand upon and give notice to

as follows:                                                                     

(a)  If the Company shall fail to make any installment      
payment under the Sale Agreement on the day such payment is due                 
and payable, the Trustee shall give notice to and make demand                   
upon the Company on the next succeeding business day.                           

(b)  If a default occurs of which the Trustee is            
pursuant to the provisions of Section 1101(g) deemed to have or

Company and to bondholders.                                                     

Section 1104.  Intervention by Trustee.  In any             
judicial proceeding to which the County is a party and which in                 
the opinion of the Trustee and its counsel has a substantial                    
bearing on the interests of holders of Bonds issued hereunder,                  
the Trustee may intervene on behalf of bondholders and shall do                 
so if requested in writing by the holders of at least ten percent               
(10%) of the aggregate principal amount of Bonds outstanding                    
hereunder.  The rights and obligations of the Trustee under this                
Section 1104 are subject to the approval of the court having                    
jurisdiction in the premises.

bank or trust company to which the Trustee may be merged, or with               
which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer               
its trust business and assets as a whole or substantially as a                  
whole, or any bank or trust company resulting from any such sale,

or filing of any instrument or any further act, deed or                         
conveyance on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything                   
herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that                 
such successor trustee shall have capital and surplus of at least               
$10,000,000.

appointment of a successor trustee by the bondholders or by the                 
County.  Such notice may be served personally or sent by                        
registered mail.                                                                

Section 1107.  Removal of Trustee.  The Trustee may be      
removed at any time by an instrument or concurrent instruments in

outstanding hereunder.                                                          

Section 1108.  Appointment of Successor Trustee.  In        
case the Trustee hereunder shall resign or be removed, or be                    
dissolved, or shall be in course of dissolution or liquidation,                 
or otherwise become incapable of acting hereunder, or in case it                
shall be taken under the control of any public officer or                       
officers, or of a receiver appointed by the court, a successor                  
may be appointed by the holders of a majority in aggregate                      
principal amount of Bonds outstanding hereunder, by an instrument               
or concurrent  instruments in writing signed by such holders, or                
by their attorneys in fact, duly authorized; provided,                          
nevertheless, that in case of such vacancy the County by an                     
instrument executed and signed by its County Judge and attested                 
by its Clerk under its seal, shall appoint a temporary trustee to               
fill such vacancy until a successor trustee shall be appointed by               
the bondholders in the manner above provided; and any such                      
temporary trustee so appointed by the County shall immediately                  
and without further act be superseded by the trustee so appointed               
by such bondholders.  Every such temporary trustee and every such               
successor trustee shall be a trust company or bank in good                      
standing, having capital and surplus of not less than

acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor and also to the County               
an instrument in writing accepting such appointment hereunder,                  
and thereupon such successor or temporary trustee, without any                  
further act or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the               
estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and                         
obligations of its predecessor; but such predecessor shall,                     
nevertheless, on the written request of the County or of its

to such successor all the estate, properties, rights, powers and                
trusts of such predecessor hereunder; and every predecessor                     
trustee shall deliver all securities, moneys and any other                      
property held by it as trustee hereunder to its successor.

any successor trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in                   
such successor the estates, rights, powers and duties hereby                    
vested or intended to be vested in the predecessor trustee, any                 
and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be                       
executed, acknowledged and delivered by the County.  The                        
resignation of any trustee and the instrument or                                
instrumentsremoving any trustee and appointing a successor                      
hereunder, together with all other instruments provided for in                  
this Article shall, at the expense of the County, be forthwith

Section 1110.  Reliance Upon Instruments.  The              
resolutions, opinions, certificates and other instruments                       
provided for in this Indenture may be accepted and relied upon by               
the Trustee as conclusive evidence of the facts and conclusions                 
stated therein and shall be full warrant, protection and                        
authority to the Trustee for its actions taken hereunder.                       

Section 1111.  Appointment of Co-Trustee.  The County       
and the Trustee shall have power to appoint and upon the request                
of the Trustee the County shall for such purpose join with the                  
Trustee in the execution of all instruments necessary or proper                 
to appoint another corporation or one or more persons approved by               
the Trustee, and satisfactory to the Company so long as there is                
no termination of the interest of the Company by virtue of an                   
event of default or otherwise, either to act as co-trustee or                   
co-trustees jointly with the Trustee of all or any of the                       
property subject to the lien hereof, or to act as separate                      
trustee or co-trustee of all or any such property, with such                    
powers as may be provided in the instrument of appointment and to               
vest in such corporation or person or persons as such separate                  
trustee or co-trustee any property, title, right or power deemed                
necessary or desirable.  In the event that the County shall not                 
have joined in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after                  
the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Trustee alone shall                
have the power to make such appointment. Should any deed,                       
conveyance or instrument in writing from the County be required                 
by separate trustee or co-trustee so appointed for more fully and               
certainly vesting in and confirming to him or to it such                        
properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any                 
and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments in writing shall,               
on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the                      
County.  Every such co-trustee and separate trustee shall, to the               
extent permitted by law, be appointed subject to the following                  
provisions and conditions, namely:                                              

(1)  The Bonds shall be authenticated and                   
delivered, and all powers, duties, obligations and          
rights conferred upon the Trustee in respect of             
the custody of all money and securities pledged or          
deposited hereunder, shall be exercised solely by           
the Trustee; and                                            

(2)  The Trustee, at any time by an instrument in           
writing, may remove any such separate trustee or            
co-trustee.                                                 

Every instrument, other than this Indenture, appointing     
any such co-trustee or separate trustee, shall refer to this                    
Indenture and the conditions of this Article XI expressed, and                  
upon the acceptance in writing by such separate trustee or                      
co-trustee, he, they or it shall be vested with the estate or                   
property specified in such instrument, jointly with the Trustee                 
(except insofar as local law makes it necessary for any separate                
trustee to act alone), subject to all the trusts, conditions and                
provisions of this Indenture.  Any such separate trustee or                     
co-trustee may at any time, by an instrument in writing,                        
constitute the Trustee as his, their or its agent or                            
attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent                   
authorized by law, to do all acts and things and exercise all                   
discretion authorized or permitted by him, them or it, for and on               
behalf of him, them or it and in his, their or its name.  In case               
any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of               
acting, resign or be removed, all the estate, properties, rights,               
powers, trusts, duties and obligations of said separate trustee                 
or co-trustee shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee until               
the appointment of a new trustee or a successor to such separate                
trustee or co-trustee.                                                          

Section 1112.  Designation and Succession of Paying         
Agents.  The Trustee and any other banks or trust companies, if                 
any, designated as Paying Agent or Paying Agents in any                         
supplemental indenture providing for the issuance of Additional                 
Bonds as provided in Section 211 hereof or in an instrument                     
appointing a successor Trustee, shall be the Paying Agent or                    
Paying Agents for the applicable series of Bonds.                               

Any bank or trust company with which or into which any      
Paying Agent may be merged or consolidated, or to which the                     
assets and business of such Paying Agent may be sold, shall be                  
deemed the successor of such Paying Agent for the purposes of                   
this Indenture. If the position of Paying Agent shall become                    
vacant for any reason, the County shall, within thirty (30) days                
thereafter, appoint such bank or trust company as shall be                      
specified by the Company as such Paying Agent to fill such                      
vacancy; provided, however, that, if the County shall fail to                   
appoint such Paying Agent within said period, the Trustee shall                 
make such appointment.                                                          

The Paying Agents shall enjoy the same protective

contrary to or inconsistent with this Indenture as                    
theretofore in effect, provided that no such additional               
liabilities or duties shall be imposed upon the Trustee               
without its consent;

this Indenture other covenants, agreements, limitations               
and restrictions to be observed by the County which are               
not contrary to or inconsistent with this Indenture as                
theretofore in effect;

Revenues of the County from the Sale Agreement or of

are evidenced by certificates; or                                     

(h)  to modify, alter, amend or supplement this

change described in clause (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) or                 
(f) of Section 1202 hereof and which, in the judgment                 
of the Trustee, is not to the prejudice of the Trustee.               

Section 1202.  Supplemental Indentures Requiring            
Bondholder Consent.  Subject to the terms and provisions                        
contained in this Section, and not otherwise, the holders of not                
less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds                 
then outstanding shall have the right, from time to time,                       
anything contained in this Indenture to the  contrary                           
notwithstanding, to consent to and approve the execution by the                 
County and the Trustee of such indenture or indentures                          
supplemental hereto as shall be deemed necessary and desirable by               
the County for the purpose of modifying, altering, amending,                    
adding to or rescinding, in any particular, any of the terms or                 
provisions contained in this Indenture or in any supplemental                   
indenture; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall               
permit, or be construed as permitting, unless approved by the                   
holders of all Bonds then outstanding (a) an extension of the                   
maturity (or mandatory sinking fund or other mandatory redemption               
date) of the principal of or the interest on any Bond issued                    
hereunder, or (b) a reduction in the principal amount of or                     
redemption premium or rate of interest on any Bond issued                       
hereunder, or (c) the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on               
a parity with the lien of this Indenture on the Trust Estate or                 
any part thereof, except as hereinbefore expressly permitted, or                
(d) a privilege or priority of any Bond or Bonds over any other                 
Bond or Bonds, or (e) a reduction in the aggregate principal                    
amount of the Bonds required for consent to such supplemental                   
indenture, or (f) depriving the holder of any Bond then                         
outstanding of the lien hereby created on the Trust Estate.                     
Nothing herein contained, however, shall be construed as making                 
necessary the approval of bondholders of the execution of any                   
supplemental indenture as provided in Section 1201 of this                      
Article.                                                                        
If, at any time the County shall request the Trustee to     
enter into any supplemental indenture for any of the purposes of                
this Section, the Trustee shall, at the expense of the County,                  
cause notice of the proposed execution of such supplemental                     
indenture to be mailed by first class mail to each registered                   
owner of the Bonds.  Such notice shall briefly set forth the                    
nature of the proposed supplemental indenture and shall state                   
that copies thereof are on file at the principal corporate trust                
office of the Trustee for inspection by bondholders.  The Trustee               
shall not, however, be subject to any liability to any bondholder               
by reason of its failure to mail such notice, and any such                      
failure shall not affect the validity of such supplemental                      
indenture when consented to and approved as provided in this                    
Section.  If the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate               
principal amount of the Bonds outstanding at the time of the                    
execution of any such supplemental indenture shall have consented               
to and approved the execution thereof as herein provided, no                    
holder of any Bond shall have any right to object to any of the                 
terms and provisions contained therein, or the operation thereof,               
or in any manner to question the propriety of the execution                     
thereof, or to enjoin or restrain the Trustee or the County from                
executing the same or from taking any action pursuant to the                    
provisions thereof.  Upon the execution ofany such supplemental                 
indenture, this Indenture shall be deemed to be modified and                    
amended in accordance therewith.                                                

Section 1203.  Consent of Company.  Anything herein to      
the contrary notwithstanding, a supplemental indenture under this               
Article XII shall not become effective unless and until the                     
Company shall have consented to the execution and delivery of                   
such supplemental indenture.  In this regard, the Trustee shall                 
cause notice of the proposed execution and delivery of any such                 
supplemental indenture together with a copy of the proposed                     
supplemental indenture to be mailed by certified or registered                  
mail to the Company at least fifteen (15) days prior to the                     
proposed date of execution and delivery of any such supplemental                
indenture. The Company shall be deemed to have consented to the                 
execution and delivery of any such supplemental indenture if the                
Trustee receives a letter or other instrument signed by an                      
authorized officer of the Company expressing consent.                           

Section 1204.  Opinion of Bond Counsel.  Anything           
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, a supplemental indenture                
under this Article XII shall not become effective unless and                    
until the Trustee shall have received an opinion of Bond Counsel                
to the effect that such supplemental indenture will not affect                  
the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for                    
purposes of federal income taxation.

Section 1301.  Amendments Not Requiring Consent of          
Bondholders.  The Trustee may from time to time, and at any time,               
consent to any amendment, change or modification of the Sale                    
Agreement for the purpose of curing any ambiguity or formal                     
defect or omission or making any other change therein, which in                 
the reasonable judgment of the Trustee is not to the prejudice of               
the Trustee or the holders of the Bonds.  The Trustee shall not                 
consent to any other amendment, change or modification of the                   
Sale Agreement without the approval or consent of the holders of                
not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the                   
Bonds at the time outstanding, evidenced in the manner provided                 
in Section 1401 hereof; provided the Trustee shall not, without                 
the unanimous consent of the holders of all Bonds then                          
outstanding, evidenced in the manner provided in Section 1401                   
hereof, consent to any amendment which would change the                         
obligations of the Company under Section 5.02 or 5.03 of the Sale               
Agreement or the nature of the obligations of the Company on the                
First Mortgage Bonds as provided in Section 5.03 of the Sale                    
Agreement.                                                                      

Section 1302.  Amendments Requiring Consent of              
Bondholders.  If at any time the County or the Company shall                    
request the Trustee's consent to a proposed amendment, change or                
modification requiring bondholder approval under Section 1301,                  
the Trustee, shall, at the expense of the requesting party, cause               
notice of such proposed amendment, change or modification to the                
Sale Agreement to be mailed in the same manner as provided by                   
Section 1202 hereof with respect to supplemental indentures.                    
Such notice shall briefly set forth the nature of such proposed                 
amendment, change or modification and shall state that copies of                
the instrument embodying the same are on file in the principal                  
office of the Trustee for inspection by any interested                          
bondholder. The Trustee shall not, however, be subject to any                   
liability to any bondholder by reason of its failure to publish                 
or mail such notice, and any such failure shall not affect the                  
validity of such amendment, change or modification when consented               
to by the Trustee in the manner hereinabove provided.                           

Section 1303.  Opinion of Bond Counsel.  Anything           
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any amendment to the Sale               
Agreement shall not become effective unless and until the Trustee               
shall have received an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that               
such amendment will not affect the exclusion of interest on the                 
Bonds from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation.                

ARTICLE XIV

the purposes of this Indenture, and shall be conclusive in favor                
of the Trustee with regard to any action taken by it under such                 
request or other instrument, namely:

acknowledgments within such jurisdiction that the person signing                
such writing acknowledged before him the execution thereof, or by

Section 1402.  Limitation of Rights.  With the              
exception of rights herein expressly conferred, nothing expressed               
or mentioned in or to be implied from this Indenture, or the                    
Bonds issued hereunder, is intended or shall be construed to give               
to any person or company other than the parties hereto, the                     
Company, and the holders of the Bonds secured by this Indenture                 
any legal or equitable rights, remedy or claim under or in

Indenture shall be held or deemed to be or shall, in fact, be                   
inoperative or unenforceable as applied in any particular case in               
any jurisdiction or jurisdictions or in all jurisdictions or in                 
all cases because it conflicts with any provisions of any                       
constitution or statute or rule of public policy, or for any                    
other reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of                   
rendering the provision in question inoperative or unenforceable                
in any other case or circumstance, or of rendering any other

The invalidity of any one or more phrases, sentences,       
clauses or paragraphs in this Indenture contained shall not                     
affect the remaining portions of this Indenture or any part                     
thereof.

(Reverse Side of Series ____ Bond)                

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS               

The Bonds are not general obligations of the County but     
are special obligations payable solely from revenues derived from               
the Facilities (including particularly payments under the Sale                  
Agreement).  The Sale Agreement provides for payments by the                    
Company, for the purchase of the Facilities on an installment                   
basis, in amounts sufficient to provide for the payment of the                  
principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds as                  
due and payable.  Such payments will be made directly to the                    
Trustee and deposited in a special account of the County                        
designated "________ County, Arkansas Pollution Control Revenue                 
Refunding Bond Fund - Arkansas Power & Light Company Project,"                  
and such payments have been duly assigned to the Trustee for that               
purpose.  The obligation of the Company to make such payments is                
evidenced in part by the Company's first mortgage bonds issued                  
and delivered to the Trustee an additional series under the                     
Mortgage and Deed of Trust dated as of October 1, 1944, between                 
the Company and Guaranty Trust Company of New York (now Morgan                  
Guaranty Trust Company of New York) and Henry A. Theis (John W.                 
Flaherty, successor), and, as to property, real and personal,                   
situated or being in Missouri, Marvin A. Mueller (The Boatmen's                 
National Bank of St. Louis, successor), as trustees, as amended                 
and supplemented.  All the rights and interest of the County in                 
and to the Sale Agreement (except for certain rights specified in               
the Indenture)  have been assigned under the Indenture to the                   
Trustee to secure the payment of the principal of and premium, if               
any, and interest on the Bonds.                                                 

The owner of this Bond shall have no right to enforce       
the provisions of the Indenture or to institute action to enforce               
the covenants therein, or to take any action with respect to any                
event of default under the Indenture, or to institute, appear in                
and defend any suit or other proceeding with respect thereto,                   
except as provided in the Indenture.  In certain events, on the                 
conditions, in the manner and with the effect set forth in the                  
Indenture, the principal of all the Bonds and Additional Bonds                  
issued under the Indenture and then outstanding may be declared                 
and may become due and payable before the stated maturity                       
thereof, together with accrued interest thereon.                                

Modifications or alterations of the Indenture, or of        
any indenture supplemental thereto, may be made only to the                     
extent and in the circumstances permitted by the Indenture.                     

The Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity       
as follows:                                                                     

(a)  The Bonds shall be subject to optional redemption      
by the County, at the direction of the Company, in whole but not                
in part, at any time, at a redemption price equal to the                        
principalamount being redeemed plus accrued interest to the                     
redemption date, if:                                                            

(i)  the Company shall have determined that the             
continued operation of the Plant is impracticable,                    
uneconomical or undesirable for any reason;                           

(ii) the Company shall have determined that the             
continued construction or operation of the Facilities                 
is impracticable, uneconomical or undesirable due to                  
(A) the imposition of taxes, other than ad valorem                    
taxes currently levied upon privately owned property                  
used for the same general purpose as the Facilities, or               
other liabilities or burdens with respect to the                      
Facilities or the construction or operation thereof,                  
(B) changes in technology, in environmental standards                 
or legal re-quirements or in the economic availability                
of materials, supplies, equipment or labor or (C)                     
destruction of or damage to all or part of the                        
Facilities;                                                           

(iii) all or substantially all of the Facilities            
or the Plant shall have been condemned or taken by                    
eminent domain; or                                                    

(iv)  the construction or operation of the                  
Facilities or the Plant shall have been  enjoined or                  
shall have otherwise been prohibited by any order,                    
decree, rule or regulation of any court or of any                     
federal, state or local regulatory body, administrative               
agency or other governmental body.                                    

(b)  The Bonds shall be subject to mandatory                
redemption, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount                 
being redeemed plus accrued interest to the redemption date, on                 
the one hundred eightieth day (or such earlier date as may be                   
designated by the Company) after a final determination by a court               
of competent jurisdiction or an administrative agency, to the                   
effect that as a result of a failure by the Company to perform or               
observe any covenant, agreement or representation contained in                  
the Sale Agreement, the interest payable on the Bonds is included               
for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of the                      
bondholders thereof, other than any bondholder who is a                         
"substantial user" of the Facilities or a "related person" within               
the meaning of Section 147(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of                   
1986, as amended (the "Code").  No determination by any court or                
administrative agency will be considered final unless the Company               
has participated in the proceeding which resulted in such                       
determination, either directly or through a bondholder, to a                    
degree it reasonably deems sufficient and until the conclusion of               
any appellate review sought by any party to such proceeding or                  
the expiration of the time for seeking such review.  The Bonds                  
shall be redeemed either in whole or in part in such principal                  
amount that the interest payable on theBonds remaining                          
outstanding after such redemption would not be included in the                  
gross income of any bondholder thereof, other than a bondholder                 
who is a "substantial user" of the Facilities or a "related                     
person" within the meaning of Section 147(a) of the Code.

by the County, at the direction of the Company, on and after                    
_______ 1, ____, in whole at any time or in part from time to                   
time, by lot or in such other manner as may be determined by the                
Trustee to be fair and equitable, at the redemption prices                      
(expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below,                 
plus accrued interest to the redemption date:

The Bonds shall also be subject to optional redemption by the                   
County, at the direction of the Company, in whole but not in                    
part, at any time prior to _________, ____, at a redemption price               
equal to ___% of the principal amount being redeemed plus accrued               
interest to the redemption date, if the Company shall have                      
consolidated with or merged with or into another corporation, or                
sold or otherwise transferred all or substantially all of its                   
assets.                                                                         

In the event any of the Bonds or portions thereof           
(which shall be $_____ or any integral multiple thereof) are                    
called for redemption, notice thereof shall be given by the                     
Trustee by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered                 
owner of each such Bond addressed to such registered owner at his               
registered address and placed in the mails not less than thirty                 
(30) days nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the date fixed                 
for redemption; provided, however, that failure to give such                    
notice by mailing, or any defect therein, shall not affect the                  
validity of any proceeding for the redemption of any Bond with                  
respect to which no such failure or defect has occurred.  Each                  
notice shall identify the Bonds or portions thereof being called,               
and the date on which they shall be presented for payment.  After               
the date specified in such call, the Bond or Bonds so called will               
cease to bear interest provided funds sufficient for their                      
redemption have been deposited with the Trustee, and, except for                
the purpose of payment, shall no longer be protected by the                     
Indenture and shall not be deemed to be outstanding under the                   
provisions of the Indenture.                                                    

With respect to notice of redemption of Bonds at the        
option of the County (at the direction of the Company), unless                  
moneys sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any,                  
andinterest on the Bonds to be redeemed shall have been received                
by the Trustee prior to the giving of such notice, such notice                  
shall state that said redemption shall be conditional upon the                  
receipt of such moneys by the Trustee on or prior to the date                   
fixed for such redemption.  If such moneys shall not have been so               
received, such notice shall be of no force and effect, the County               
shall not redeem such Bonds and the Trustee shall give notice, in               
the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such               
moneys were not so received.                                                    

This Bond may be transferred on the books of                
registration kept by the Trustee by the registered owner or by                  
his duly authorized attorney upon surrender hereof, together with               
a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered                
owner or his duly authorized attorney.                                          

The Bonds are issuable as registered Bonds without          
coupons in denominations of $_____ and any integral multiple                    
thereof.  Subject to the limitations and upon payment of the                    
charges provided in the Indenture, Bonds may be exchanged for a                 
like aggregate principal amount of Bonds of other authorized                    
denominations.                                                                  

This Bond is issued with the intent that the laws of        
the State of Arkansas will govern its construction.
