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

“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
7
indenture
supplemental thereto shall affect or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay at the stated
or accelerated maturity herein and in the Indenture provided, the
principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Bond as
herein provided. 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

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

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

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
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.
