Number of Directors, Yacancies, Removal of Dircctorc. Our bylaws provide that the board of directors will have at least 9 and at most I 5 dircctors. These res$ictions on the size ofthe board may be changed by amendment of our bylaws, which must be approvcd by a two-thirds vote ofshareholders entitlcd to vote, or by a majority vote ofthe board ofdirectors. A majority ofthe board decides the exact number ofdirectors at a given time. The board fills any new directorships it creates and any vacancies. Also, directors may be removed by the shareholders only for cause and only ifat least two-thirds ofthe shares ofour outstanding voting stock approve the removal. These provisions may delay or prevent a shareholder from gaining control ofthe board. Meetings of Shareholders Calling of a Special Meeting. Thc prcsident, a majority of the board of directors or thc chairman of thc board may call a special meeting of the shareholders at any timc. Holders ofat least 2070 of the oustanding shares entitled to vote may call a special meeting if such holders sign, datc and deliver to our sccretary one or more written demands describing thc purpose(s) ofthe proposed meeting, as well as documentation ofthe shareholders' ownership percentage and information regarding the shareholders'proposal. Upon receipt ofone or more written demands fiom such holders, our secretary is responsible for detcrmining whether such demand or demands conform to the requirements ofthe Idaho Business Corporation Act, our articles of incorporation and our bylaws. Aftcr making an affirmative determination, our secretary will prepare, sign and deliver the notices for such meeting. Thc shareholders may suggest a time and place in their demand(s), but the board of directors will determine the time and place ofany such meeting by resolution. These provisions for calling a spccial meeting may delay or prevent a person from bringing matters before a sharcholder meeting. No Cumulative Voting, Our articles of incorporation do not provide for cumulative voting. This could prevcnt directors from being elected by a relatively small group ofshareholders. Advance Notice Prcuivozs. Our bylaws rcquire that for a shareholder to nominate a director or bring other business bcfore an annual mecting, the shareholder must give notice and provide other information called for by our bylaws to our sccretary not later than the close ofbusiness on the I 20th day nor earlier than the close ofbusincss on the l50th day prior to the first anniversary ofthc Tablc ofContents date ofthe preccding year's annual meeting. Ifthe date ofthe annual mccting is more than 30 days before or 60 days after the anniversary date ofthe preceding year's annual meeting or ifno annual mseting was held in the preceding year, the shareholder must deliver notice no earlicr than the close ofbusincss on the I 50th day prior to the date of such annual meeting and not later than the close ofbusiness on the later ofthe l20th day prior to the date ofsuch annual meeting or, ifthe first public announccment ofthe date of such annual meeting is Iess than I 30 days prior to thc date ofsuch annual mecting, the lOth day following the day on which wc first publicly announce thc datc of such meeting. Our bylaws also limit business at a spccial mccting to thc purposcs statcd in thc notice ofthc spccial mceting, subject to thc introduction ofadditional busincss at thc discretion ofthc board of dircctors. Thesc advance notice provisions may delay a sharcholder from bringing mattcrs bcfore a sharcholdcr meeting. The provisions may provide enough timc for our board ofdircctors to begin litigation or take other steps to rcspond to these matters, or to prevent them from bcing actcd upon, ifour board ofdirectors finds it necessary or desirable for any reason. Amendmenl of Articles of Incoryorution. Ovr arlicles of incorporation requirc an 80oZ votc of shareholdcrs cntitled to vote in order to amend the provisions relating to the board ofdircctors and the amendmcnt ofour articles ofincorporation, unless such amendmcnt is recommended by two{hirds of thc continuing directors, as dcfincd. Amendment of Bylans. Amcndmcnt of the bylaws relating to the board of directors or advance noticc provisions for shareholder mcctings requires a two-thirds vote of shareholders cntitled to vote or a majority vote ofthe board ofdirectors. Provisions of ldaho Law That Could Delay or Prevent a Change in Control Idaho Control Share Acqaisition Law. We are subject to thc provisions of the Idaho Control Share Acquisition Law. This law is designcd to protect minority sharcholders in the event that a pcrson acquires or proposes to acquire sharcs of voting stock giving it at least 20%, at lcast 33r/3%, or more than 50% ofthe voting powcr in the election ofour directors. Undcr this law, an acquiring person must dcliver to us an information statement that includes, most notably, thc acquiring pcrson's identity, its acquisition plans and its financing. The acquiring pcrson cannot votc the shares it holds that are greater than the applicablc pcrcentages unless two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock, excluding shares owned by thc acquiring pcrson, approvcs the excrcise ofsuch voting power. Ifthe acquiring pcrson so requests and complies with othcr requirements, wc must hold a special mceting within 55 days ofrecciving thc information statcmcnt from the acquiring person for thc sharcholders to votc. If thc acquiring pcrson does not dclivcr thc information statemcnt, or our shareholdcrs do not approve such voting powcr, wc may redeem all ofthc acquiring person's sharcs that exceed thc applicable percentagc at their fair market value. Idaho Business Combination Law. Wc are also subject to thc Idaho Business Combination Law. This law prohibits us from cngaging in ccrtain busincss combinations with a pcrson who owns l07o or morc of our outstanding voting stock for a thrcc-ycar pcriod after the person acquircs thc shares. This prohibition does not apply ifour board ofdircctors approved of thc business combination or the acquisition ofour shares beforc thc pcrson acquired I 0% ofthe shares. After thc three-year pcriod, we could engage in a business combination with thc pcrson only iftwo+hirds ofour outstanding voting stock, cxcluding shares owncd by the pcrson, approvc, or thc busincss combination meets minimum price requircmcnts.

Thc debt securities that we may issue under this indenture will bc unsecured obligations of IDACORP, Inc. exclusively, and not thc obligations ofany ofour subsidiaries. Thc indenture does not limit the amount ofdebt securities that we may issuc and it does not restrict the amount or type ofothcr dcbt that wc or our subsidiaries may issue or contain any other provisions that would afford holders ofthe debt securitics protection in thc cvcnt ofa highly leveraged transaction. We may use othcr indenturcs or documentation containing provisions diffcrent from those includcd in the indenturc under which wc arc offering these debt securities in conncction with futurc issues ofdcbt securities.

Ifany ofour subsidiaries liquidatc or reorganizc, the claims ofthe subsidiary's creditors to the procecds will bc prior to thc claims ofour creditors, except to thc extent we arc a crcditor ofthe subsidiarics. As a rcsult ofthese factors, the debt sccuritics will bc effectively subordinated to all existing and futurc claims ofcreditors of Idaho Powcr Company and other subsidiaries, including tradc creditors, debt holdcrs, secured creditors, taxing authorities and guarantee holders. Thc indenture docs not limit the amount ofdebt securities that we may issue, nor docs it limit us or our subsidiaries from issuing any other unsecured debt.

Although our subsidiarics are parties to agreements that limit thc amount ofadditional indebtedness they may incur, they retain ths ability to incur substantial additional indebtedness and othcr liabilities.

Unless wc cure thc dcfault, thc trustee is rcquircd to notifu you ofany dcfault known to it within 90 days after thc default has occurred.

Governing Law The indenture and thc dcbt securitics will bc govcmed by and construed under thc laws ofthe state of ldaho, except that the obligations, rights and remcdics of thc trustec will be determined undcr thc laws of thc statc ofNew York. BOOK.ENTRY SYSTEM We may issue all or some of the dcbt securities in book-entry form, which means that global notes, not certificates, will rcprcsent the securitics. Ifwe issue global notes representing any sccuritics, the following provisions will apply to all book-cntry securities: Unlcss othcrwisc indicated in thc applicable prospcctus supplemcnt, the Dcpository Trust Company, Ncw York, NY, which we refer to as "DTC," will act as sccurities depository for thc sccurities. We will issuc the securitics as fully-registcrcd securitics rsgistcrcd in the name ofCcdc & Co. or such othcr name as may bc requcsted by an authorized representative of DTC. Wc will issuc onc or more fully-rcgistcred security ccrtificatcs for each issue ofthc sccurities, in thc aggregate principal amount of thc issuc, and we will deposit the certificates with thc trustee to hold as agcnt for DTC. Wc and the trustcc will treat Ccdc & Co. as thc holder ofthe sccuritics for all purposcs. DTC has informcd us that it is a limitcd-purpose trust company organized under thc New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within thc mcaning ofthc Ncw York Banking Law, a membcr ofthe Federal Reserve Systcm, a "clcaring corporation" within thc mcaning ofthe Ncw York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registcrcd pursuant to thc provisions of Section I 7A ofthc Exchange Act. DTC also facilitates thc post-trade settlcmcnt among dircct participants of sales and t5 Table ofContents other securities transactions in dcpositcd sccurities through electronic computerized book-cntry transfers and plcdgcs between direct participants' accounts. This eliminatcs the need for physical movcment of securities ccrtificates. Direct participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securitics brokcrs and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and ccrtain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, or DTCC. DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securitics Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clcaring Corporation, all ofwhich are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owncd by the users of its rcgulated subsidiarics. Access to the DTC system is also availablc to othcrs such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokcrs and dealers, banks, trust companics and clcaring corporations that clcar through or maintain a custodial rclationship with a direct participant, eithcr directly or indirectly. The DTC rules applicablc to its participants are on file with the SEC. Morc information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com and www.dtc.org. Purchascs of sccuritics undcr thc DTC system must bc made by or through direct participants, which will receive a credit for the securities on DTC's records. Thc owncrship interest ofeach actual purchascr, thc bcneficial owner, is in tum to be recordcd on thc dircct and indirect participant's records. Bcncficial owners will not receivc written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Bcncficial owners arc, howcvcr, expccted to receive written confirmations providing details of thc transaction, as wcll as periodic statemcnts ofthcir holdings, from the direct or indirect participant through which the bencficial owner entcred into the transaction. Transfers ofowncrship interests in thc securities are to be accomplished by entrics madc on the books ofdirect and indircct participants acting on bchalfofbeneficial owners. Beneficial owners will not reccivc certificates representing thcir owncrship interests in thc securities, exccpt in thc cvcnt that use ofthe book-cntry system for thc securities is discontinucd. To facilitatc subscqucnt transfcrs, all sccurities depositcd by dircct participants with DTC are registered in thc name of DTC'S partnership nominec, Cedc & Co., or such othcr name as may bc requested by an authorized representativc of DTC. The deposit of securitics with DTC and thcir registration in the namc ofCede & Co. or such other DTC nomincc do not effect any change in bencficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge ofthe actual beneficial owncrs ofthe securitics. DTC's rccords reflect only thc idcntity ofthe direct participants to whose accounts thc sccurities are credited, which may or may not be the bcneficial owncrs. Thc dircct and indircct participants will remain rcsponsible for keeping account oftheir holdings on behalf oftheir customers. Conveyancc of notices and other communications by DTC to dircct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants, and by dircct participants and indirect participants to bencficial owners will bc governed by arrangcmcnts among thcm, subject to any statutory or regulatory rcquirements that may be in effcct from time to timc. Redemption noticcs will be sent to DTC. If less than all of the sccurities within an issue are being rcdeemed, DTC's practice is to determinc by lot the amount ofthc interest ofeach dircct participant in thc issuc to bc redcemed. Neither DTC nor Ccde & Co. (nor any othcr DTC nominee) will consent or votc with rcspect to the sccuritics unless authorized by a dircct participant in accordancc with DTC's money market instrumcnt procedures. Undcr its usual procedurcs, DTC mails an omnibus proxy to the issuer as soon as possible after the record datc. Thc omnibus proxy assigns Ccdc & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those direct participants to whosc accounts thc sccurities arc credited on the record datc, idcntified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy. Redemption procccds and distributions, including principal and interest payments, on thc securities will bc made to Ccde & Co., or such other nominee as may bc requcsted by an authorized representativc of DTC. DTC's practicc is to credit dircct participants' accounts upon DTC's rcceipt of funds and corrcsponding detail information from us or our agcnt on thc payable date in accordance with their respectivc holdings shown on DTC's records. Paymcnts by participants to bcncficial owners l6 Table ofContents will be govemed by standing instnrctions and customary practices as is the case with sccurities held for the accounts of customers in bearcr form or registered in street name. Payment by participants to bcneficial owners will bc thc responsibility ofthe participants and not of DTC, any agents or us, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to timc. Payment ofredemption proceeds and distributions to Cede & Co. (or such other nominec as may be requested by an authorizcd representative of DTC) is our responsibility or the responsibility ofour paying agcnts. Disbursement ofsuch paymcnts to direct participants will bc thc rcsponsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the beneficial owncrs will be the responsibility ofdirect and indirect participants. In casc of any optional tender for or mandatory purchase ofsccuritics, pursuant to thcir tcrms, a beneficial owner shall givc notice to elect to have its securitics purchased or tendered through its participant to thc tcnder/remarketing agcnt and shall effect delivery ofthe securities by causing the direct participant to transfer the participant's interest in the sccurities, on DTC's records, to thc tender/remarkcting agent. The requiremcnt for physical delivery of sccurities in connection with an optional tcnder or a mandatory purchasc will be deemed satisfied whcn the ownership rights in the securities arc transferred by direct participants on DTC's records and followcd by a book-cntry credit of tendered sccurities to the tendcr/remarketing agent's DTC account. DTC may discontinue providing its scrvices as depository with respect to the sccurities at any time by giving reasonable noticc to us or to our agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, sccurity certificates are requircd to be printed and dclivcrcd. We may dccidc to discontinue use of thc system ofbook-cntry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor sccuritics depository).

BOOK.ENTRY SYSTEM We may issue all or some of thc first mortgage bonds and debt sccurities in book-cntry form, which mcans that global notcs, not certificatcs, will represent the securities. Ifwc issue global notcs rcpresenting any securities, thc following provisions will apply to all book-entry sccurities: Unless othcrwise indicated in thc applicablc prospectus supplement, the Depository Trust Company, New York, NY, which wc refer to as "DTC," will act as sccurities depository for thc securities.

DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary ofThc Dcpository Trust & Clearing Corporation, or DTCC.

DTCC is owned by the users ofits regulated subsidiarics. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securitics brokcrs and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a dircct participant, cithcr directly or indirectly. The DTC rules applicable to its participants are on file with the SEC. Morc information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com and www.dtc.org. Purchases ofsccurities under the DTC systcm must be made by or through direct participants, which will receive a credit for the securities on DTC's records. The owncrship interest of each actual purchaser, the bcneficial owner, is in tum to be recorded on the direct and indircct participants'rccords. Beneficial owners will not rcccive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Bcncficial owncrs arc, howcver, cxpcctcd to receivc written confirmations providing details ofthe transaction, as well as pcriodic statcmcnts oftheir holdings, from thc direct or indirect participant through which the beneficial owner entercd into the transaction. Transfers ofowncrship intcrcsts in the securities are to bc accomplished by entries made on thc books ofdircct and indirect participants acting on bchalfofbcneficial owners. Bcncficial owncrs will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in thc sccuritics, cxcept in thc cvent that use ofthe book-cntry system for the securitics is discontinucd. To facilitatc subsequent transfers, all securities dcpositcd with DTC are rcgistcrcd in thc name ofDTC's partncrship nominee, Ccdc & Co., or such other name as may bc requested by an authorizcd rcprcscntativc of DTC. The deposit of sccurities with DTC and their registration in the namc ofCede & Co. or such other DTC nomincc do not cffect any change in bcneficial owncrship. DTC has no knowledge ofthc actual beneficial owncrs ofthe securities. DTC's rccords reflect only thc identity ofthe dircct participants to whose accounts the securities arc crcdited, which may or may not be the beneficial owncrs. Thc dircct and indirect participants will remain responsible for keeping account ofthcir holdings on behalf oftheir customers. Convcyancc of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participants, by dircct participants to indircct participants, and by dircct participants and indirect participants to beneficial owncrs will bc governed by arrangcmcnts among thcm, subject to any statutory or regulatory requircmcnts that may be in effect from timc to timc. Rcdemption noticcs will be sent to DTC. If less than all of the securities within an issuc are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to dctcrminc by lot the amount ofthe interest ofeach direct participant in thc issuc to be redeemed. Ncithcr DTC nor Cede & Co., nor any othcr DTC nomincc, will consent or votc with rcspcct to the securities unlcss authorized by a dircct participant in accordancc with DTC's money market instrument proccdurcs. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an omnibus proxy to the issucr as soon as possible aftcr the record date. The omnibus proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those direct participants to whose accounts the securitics arc crcditsd on the record datc, identificd in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy. t7 Table ofContcnts Redemption proceeds and distributions, including principal and intcrcst payments, on thc securitics will bc made to Cede & Co., or such othcr nominee as may bc requcstcd by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to crcdit direct participants' accounts upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from us or the trustee on the payablc datc in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Paymcnts by participants to beneficial owners will be govcmed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the casc with sccurities held for the accounts of customers in bcarcr form or rcgistercd in strcct namc. Payment by participants to bencficial owners will be the responsibility of the participants and not ofDTC, thc trustee or us, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment ofredcmption proceeds and distributions to Ccde & Co., or such other nominec as may bc requestcd by an authorized reprcsentativc of DTC, is our responsibility or the rcsponsibility ofthe trustee. Disbursemcnt ofsuch payments to direct participants will be the responsibility ofDTC, and disbursement ofsuch payments to the bcneficial owncrs will bc thc responsibility ofdirect and indirect participants. In case ofany optional tender for or mandatory purchase ofsecurities, pursuant to their terms, a beneficial owner shall give noticc to clcct to havc its sccurities purchascd or tcndered through its participant to thc tcndcr/remarketing agcnt and shall effect delivcry ofthc securitics by causing the dircct participant to transfer the participant's intcrest in thc sccuritics, on DTC's records, to thc tendcr/remarketing agent. Thc rcquircment for physical delivery of securitics in conncction with an optional tcnder or a mandatory purchase will bc dcemcd satisfied when the ownership rights in thc securities are transfcncd by direct participants on DTC's records and followcd by a book-cntry crcdit of tendcrcd securitics to the tcndcr/rcmarkcting agcnt's DTC account. DTC may discontinue providing its services as dcpository with rcspcct to thc sccuritics at any time by giving reasonable notice to us. Undcr such circumstances, in the cvent that a succcssor depository is not obtained, security ccrtificates are required to bc printed and delivered. We may dccidc to discontinue use of thc systcm ofbook-cntry-only transfers through DTC, or a successor securities depository. In that event, security certificates will bc printcd and delivcred to DTC. Neithcr wc, the trustcc, any paying agcnt, nor the registrar for the securities will havc any rcsponsibility or liability for any aspect of thc records relating to or payments madc on account ofbcncficial owncrship interests in a global security or for maintaining, supcrvising or reviewing any records rclating to thcsc beneficial ownership intcrests. Thc information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has bccn obtained from sources that wc believc to bc rcliable, but we take no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. Thc undcrwriters, dealers or agents ofany ofthc sccurities may be direct participants ofDTC. USE OF PROCEEI}S Unless wc statc otherwise in the prospectus supplcmcnt, wc will add thc nct proceeds from the sale ofthe securitics to our general funds. We may use our general funds for any ofthe following purposes: to acquirc propcrty, to construct, complctc, cxtcnd or improvc our elcctric facilities, to improve or maintain our servicc, to rcdcem, pay at maturity or purchase outstanding first mortgage bonds and dcbt sccuritics, and to rcpay short-tcrm borowings. l8 Table ofContents The precise amount and timing ofthc application of such procccds will depend on our funding requircments, market conditions and the availability and cost ofother funds.
