The interest so payable will (except as otherwise provided in the Forty-fourth Supplemental Indenture referred to herein) be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and be paid to the person in whose name this Bond (or a Bond or Bonds in exchange for which this Bond was issued) is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth day of the calendar month next preceding the month in which the interest payment date occurs whether or not such day is a business day (a “Record Date”) and principal, premium, if any, and interest on this Bond shall be paid in accordance with written payment instructions of the registered owner delivered to the Trustee on or before such record date.

This Bond is one of a duly authorized issue of bonds of the Company known as its First Mortgage Bonds, issued and to be issued without limitation as to aggregate principal amount except as set forth in the Indenture hereinafter mentioned in one or more series and equally secured (except insofar as a sinking fund or other similar fund established in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture may afford additional security for the bonds of any specific series) by an Indenture of Mortgage (herein called the “Indenture”) dated as of January 1, 1941, executed by the Philadelphia Suburban Water Company (now Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc., f/k/a Pennsylvania Suburban Water Company, as successor by merger) to The Pennsylvania Company for Insurances on Lives and Granting Annuities (succeeded as trustee by The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.), as Trustee (the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the rights of the holders and registered owners of the bonds and of the Trustee in respect of such security, and the terms and conditions under which the bonds are and are to be secured and may be issued under the Indenture; but neither the foregoing reference to the Indenture nor any provision of this Bond or of the Indenture or of any

As provided in the Indenture, the bonds may be issued in series for various principal amounts, may bear different dates and mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture provided or permitted. This Bond is one of the Bonds described in an indenture supplemental to said Indenture known as the “Forty-fourth Supplemental Indenture” dated as of July 1, 2009, and designated therein as “First Mortgage Bonds, 5.00% Series due 2039” (the “Bonds”).

To the extent permitted by and as provided in the Indenture, modifications or alterations of the Indenture, or of any indenture supplemental thereto, and of the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders and registered owners of bonds issued and to be issued thereunder may be made with the consent of the Company by an affirmative vote of the holders and registered owners of not less than 75% in principal amount of bonds then outstanding under the Indenture and entitled to vote, at a meeting of the bondholders called and held as provided in the Indenture, and, in case one or more but less than all of the series of bonds then outstanding under the Indenture are so affected, by an affirmative vote of the holders and registered owners of not less than 75% in principal amount of bonds of any series then outstanding under the Indenture and entitled to vote on and affected by such modification or alteration, or by the written consent of the holders and registered owners of such percentages of bonds; provided, however, that no such modification or alteration shall be made which shall reduce the percentage of bonds the consent of the holders or registered owners of which is required for any such modification or alteration or which shall affect the terms of payment of the principal of or interest on the bonds, or permit the creation by the Company of any lien prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Indenture with respect to any property subject to the lien of the Indenture as a first mortgage lien thereon, or which shall affect the rights of the holders or registered owners of less than all of the bonds of any series affected thereby.

The Bonds have been issued by the Company to secure the obligation of the Company to pay to or for the account of the Authority (defined below) an amount equal to the principal, premium, if any, of, and interest on, the Authority Bonds (defined below) pursuant to the Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) dated as of July 1, 2009 between the Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority, a Pennsylvania body politic and corporate (the “Authority”), and the Company, which Authority Bonds are being issued to finance the costs of numerous constructions, modifications, expansions, installations and replacements of the Company’s water distribution, treatment and related operating systems located in the Counties of Chester, Delaware and Montgomery in Pennsylvania and that are part of the Company’s system for the distribution of water to its customers and related financing costs which are to be financed under the Financing Agreement and which are described in Exhibit A thereto (which facilities, less any deletions therefrom and together with any additions, improvements and modifications thereto and substitutions therefor made in accordance with the provisions of the Financing Agreement are referred to as the “Facilities”). The Facilities are to be financed through the sale of the Authority’s Water Facilities Revenue Bonds (Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. Project), Series A of 2009, in the aggregate principal amount of $58,000,000 (the “Authority Bonds”).

The Authority Bonds are to be issued under a Trust Indenture, dated as of July 1, 2009 (the “Authority Indenture”) between the Authority and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Authority Trustee”). The right, title and interest of the Authority in and to the Financing Agreement and the payments thereunder and the security for such payments have been assigned by the Authority to the Authority Trustee, and the Bonds have been delivered by the Company on behalf of the Authority directly to the Authority Trustee, as assignee, as security for the payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the Authority Bonds. The Authority Trustee may not sell, assign or otherwise transfer the Bonds except for a transfer of the entire outstanding principal amount thereof to its successor as trustee under the Authority Indenture, which successor and each subsequent successor shall hold such Authority Bonds subject to the same restriction on transfer.

In the event any Authority Bonds shall be purchased by the Company and cancelled pursuant to the Authority Indenture, Bonds corresponding in principal amount to the Authority Bonds so purchased and cancelled shall be deemed to be paid in full, and in the event and to the extent the principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on, any Authority Bonds is paid out of funds held by the Authority Trustee other than payments on Bonds, the corresponding payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on, an aggregate principal amount of Bonds shall be deemed to have been satisfied.

In the event this Bond shall be deemed to have been paid in full, this Bond shall be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. In the event this Bond shall be deemed to have been paid in part, this Bond shall be presented to the Trustee for notation hereon of the payment of the portion of the principal hereof so deemed to have been paid.

The Bonds are redeemable only as follows:

(a) The Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity, at the option of the Company, on or after October 1, 2019 in whole or in part, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed, plus interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption.

(b) The Bonds are also subject to redemption at the direction of the Company, in whole, at any time prior to maturity, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the bonds to be redeemed, plus interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption, at any time the Authority Bonds are subject to extraordinary optional redemption pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(ii) of the Authority Indenture.

(c) The Bonds are also subject to special mandatory redemption at the direction of the Company, in part, prior to maturity, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the bonds to be redeemed, plus interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption, at such time and in such amount as the Authority Bonds are subject to special mandatory redemption pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(iii) of the Authority Indenture.

(d) The Bonds are also subject to mandatory redemption by the Company in whole if the Trustee shall receive a written demand from the Authority Trustee for redemption of all such Bonds held by the Authority Trustee stating that an “Event of Default” as defined in Section

9.01(a) of the Authority Indenture has occurred and is continuing and that payment of the principal of the Authority Bonds has been accelerated pursuant to Section 9.01(b) of the Authority Indenture, provided that at the time of notice of such redemption as provided in Section 2 of Article V of the Original Indenture (i) said written demand shall not have been withdrawn by the Authority Trustee, and (ii) no event of default under Section 1 of Article XI of the Original Indenture shall have occurred and be continuing.

If this Bond or any portion hereof is called for redemption and payment thereof is duly provided for as specified in the Indenture, interest shall cease to accrue hereon or on such portion, as the case may be, from and after the date fixed for redemption.

The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to its maturity date on the conditions, in the manner and with the effect set forth in the Indenture upon the happening of an event of default, as in the Indenture provided; subject, however, to the right, under certain circumstances, of the registered owners of a majority in principal amount of Bonds outstanding to annul such declaration.

This Bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof in person or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on books of the Company to be kept for that purpose at the designated office of the Trustee in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania upon surrender hereof for cancellation at such office and upon presentation of a written instrument of transfer duly executed, and thereupon the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee or transferees, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Bond or Bonds in authorized denominations, of equal aggregate unpaid principal amount. Any such transfer or exchange shall be subject to the terms and conditions and to the payment of the charges specified in the Indenture.

The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the registered owner of this Bond as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and the interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or interest on this Bond or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof or of the Indenture or of any indenture supplemental thereto against any incorporator or any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either directly or through the Company or through any such predecessor or successor corporation or through any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy, by virtue of any constitutional provision, statute or rule of law or equity, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released by every holder or registered owner hereof, as more fully provided in the Indenture.

This Bond shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, or become valid or obligatory for any purpose, until The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N. A., as Trustee under the Indenture, or a successor trustee thereunder, shall have signed the certificate of authentication endorsed hereon.
