Note 1 Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated balance sheets and statements of capitalization of Aqua America, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) at June 30, 2009, the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the six months and three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the consolidated statements of cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated statement of equity for the six months ended June 30, 2009, are unaudited, but reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring accruals, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, the consolidated changes in equity, the consolidated results of operations, and the consolidated cash flow for the periods presented. Because they cover interim periods, the statements and related notes to the financial statements do not include all disclosures and notes normally provided in annual financial statements and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. The results of operations for interim periods may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51,” which was retrospectively applied, and requires a noncontrolling interest to be separately presented as a component of stockholders’ equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and Statement of Equity. In connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and in accordance with the recently issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events,” the Company evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date of June 30, 2009 through to the time the financial statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 6, 2009. See Note 12,  Recent Accounting Pronouncements,  for further information regarding the adoption of SFAS No. 160 and SFAS No. 165. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Note 3 Dispositions
The City of Fort Wayne, Indiana (the “City”) has authorized the acquisition by eminent domain of the northern portion of the utility system of one of the Company’s operating subsidiaries that the Company acquired in connection with the AquaSource acquisition in 2003. The Company challenged whether the City was following the correct legal procedures in connection with the City’s condemnation, but the Indiana Supreme Court, in an opinion issued in June 2007, supported the City’s position. In October 2007, the City’s Board of Public Works approved proceeding with its process to condemn the northern portion of the Company’s utility system at a preliminary price based on the City’s valuation. The Company has filed an appeal with a local circuit court challenging the Board of Public Works’ valuation on several bases. In November 2007, the City Council authorized the taking of the northern portion of the Company’s system and the payment of $16,911 based on the City’s valuation of this portion of the system. In January 2008, the Company reached a settlement with the City to transition the northern portion of the system in February 2008 upon receipt of the City’s initial valuation payment of $16,911. The settlement agreement specifically states that the final valuation of the northern portion of the Company’s system will be determined through a continuation of the legal proceedings that were filed challenging the City’s valuation. On February 12, 2008, the Company turned over the northern portion of the system to the City upon receipt of the initial valuation payment. The Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission also reviewed and acknowledged the transfer of the Certificate of Territorial Authority for the northern portion of the system to the City. The proceeds received by the Company are in excess of the book value of the assets relinquished. No gain has been recognized due to the contingency over the final valuation of the assets. On March 16, 2009, oral argument was held on certain procedural aspects with respect to the valuation evidence that may be presented and whether the Company is entitled to a jury trial. The Company expects a ruling from the judge in the second half of 2009. Depending upon the outcome of the legal proceeding in the circuit court the Company may be required to refund a portion of the initial valuation payment, or may receive additional proceeds. The northern portion of the system relinquished represents approximately 0.5% of the Company’s total assets.
In June 2009, the Company sold a water and wastewater utility system in Texas for net proceeds of $1,601. The sale resulted in the recognition of a gain on the sale of these assets, net of expenses, of $1,009. The gain is reported in the consolidated statement of income as a reduction to operations and maintenance expense.

Note 4 Long-term Debt and Loans Payable
In July 2009, the Company’s Pennsylvania operating subsidiary Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. issued $58,000 of tax-exempt bonds, secured by a supplement to its first mortgage indenture, which are due in 2039 with an interest rate of 5.23%. The proceeds are restricted to funding certain capital projects during the period 2009 through 2012.
Note 5 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of current assets and liabilities that are considered financial instruments approximates their fair value as of the dates presented. The carrying amount and estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt are as follows:
 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 	 	June 30,	 	 	December 31,	 	
 	 	2009	 	 	2008	 	
Carrying Amount	 	$	1,255,403	 	 	$	1,255,401	 	
Estimated Fair Value	 	 	1,172,288	 	 	 	1,191,877	 	
The fair value of long-term debt has been determined by discounting the future cash flows using current market interest rates for similar financial instruments of the same duration. The Company’s customers’ advances for construction and related tax deposits have a carrying value of $77,988 as of June 30, 2009, and $72,955 as of December 31, 2008. Their relative fair values cannot be accurately estimated because future refund payments depend on several variables, including new customer connections, customer consumption levels, and future rate increases. Portions of these non-interest bearing instruments are payable annually through 2024 and amounts not paid by the contract expiration dates become non-refundable. The fair value of these amounts would, however, be less than their carrying value due to the non-interest bearing feature.

Note 6 Net Income per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive shares. The dilutive effect of employee stock options is included in the computation of diluted net income per common share. The dilutive effect of stock options is calculated using the treasury stock method and expected proceeds upon exercise of the stock options. The following table summarizes the shares, in thousands, used in computing basic and diluted net income per common share:
 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 	 	Six Months Ended	 	 	Three Months Ended	 	
 	 	June 30,	 	 	June 30,	 	
 	 	2009	 	 	2008	 	 	2009	 	 	2008	 	
Average common shares outstanding during the period for basic computation	 	 	135,519	 	 	 	133,549	 	 	 	135,631	 	 	 	133,683	 	
Dilutive effect of employee stock options	 	 	361	 	 	 	449	 	 	 	308	 	 	 	377	 	
 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Average common shares outstanding during the period for diluted computation	 	 	135,880	 	 	 	133,998	 	 	 	135,939	 	 	 	134,060	 	
 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
For the six and three months ended June 30, 2009, employee stock options to purchase 2,144,059 and 2,720,294 shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded from the calculations of diluted net income per share as the calculated proceeds from the options’ exercise were greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock during these periods. For the six and three months ended June 30, 2008, employee stock options to purchase 1,650,796 and 2,245,247 shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded from the calculations of diluted net income per share as the calculated proceeds from the options’ exercise were greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock during these periods.
Note 7 Stock-based Compensation
Under the Company’s 2009 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (the “2009 Plan”), as approved by the shareholders to replace the 2004 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2004 Plan”), stock options, stock units, stock awards, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalents, and other stock-based awards may be granted to employees, non-employee directors, and consultants and advisors. The 2009 Plan authorizes 5,000,000 shares for issuance under the plan. A maximum of 50% of the shares available for issuance under the 2009 Plan may be issued as restricted stock and the maximum number of shares that may be subject to grants under the plans to any one individual in any one year is 200,000. Awards under the 2009 Plan are made by a committee of the Board of Directors. At June 30, 2009, 4,986,000 shares underlying stock option and restricted stock awards were still available for grant under the 2009 Plan. No further grants may be made under the 2004 plan.

Stock Options– During the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized compensation cost associated with stock options as a component of operations and maintenance expense of $1,201 and $1,500, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized compensation cost associated with stock options as a component of operations and maintenance expense of $658 and $712, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized income tax benefits associated with stock options in its income statement of $235 and $151, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized income tax benefits associated with stock options in its income statement of $134 and $72, respectively. In addition, the Company capitalized compensation costs associated with stock options within property, plant and equipment of $73 and $212 during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and $0 and $117 during three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
The fair value of options was estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The per share weighted-average fair value at the date of grant for stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 was $4.37 and $4.12 per option, respectively. There were no stock options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. The following assumptions were used in the application of this valuation model:
 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 	 	2009	 	 	2008	 	
Expected term (years)	 	 	5.3	 	 	 	5.2	 	
Risk-free interest rate	 	 	2.2	%	 	 	3.0	%	
Expected volatility	 	 	31.3	%	 	 	23.7	%	
Dividend yield	 	 	2.98	%	 	 	2.24	%	
Historical information was the principal basis for the selection of the expected term and dividend yield. The expected volatility is based on a weighted-average combination of historical and implied volatilities over a time period that approximates the expected term of the option. The risk-free interest rate was selected based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the option.

Note 8 Pension Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits
The Company maintains qualified defined benefit pension plans, nonqualified pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans for certain of its employees. The net periodic benefit cost is based on estimated values and an extensive use of assumptions about the discount rate, expected return on plan assets, the rate of future compensation increases received by the Company’s employees, mortality, turnover, and medical costs.

The Company made cash contributions of $9,030 to its defined benefit pension plans during the first six months of 2009 and intends to make cash contributions of $7,869 to the plans during the remainder of 2009. In addition, the Company expects to make cash contributions of $1,684 for the funding of its other postretirement benefit plans during the remainder of 2009.

Note 9 Water and Wastewater Rates
During the first six months of 2009, certain of the Company’s operating divisions in New York, Indiana, Ohio, North Carolina and Florida were granted base rate increases designed to increase total operating revenues on an annual basis by approximately $15,980.
On September 23, 2008, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”) issued its final ruling with a unanimous decision approving the rate application that was filed in 2004 by the Company’s operating subsidiaries in Texas to increase rates, on an annualized basis, by $11,920 over a multi-year period beginning in 2004. The application sought to increase annual revenues in phases and was accompanied by a plan to defer and amortize a portion of the Company’s depreciation, operating and other tax expense over a similar multi-year period, such that the impact on operating income approximated the requested amount during the first years that the new rates were in effect. The Company commenced billing for the requested rates and implemented the deferral plan in 2004. As a result of the final order, the regulatory asset for the deferred operating costs and rate case expenses was set at $13,697. Beginning January 1, 2009, the regulatory asset for the deferred operating costs and rate case expense will be recovered through two twenty-four month surcharge mechanisms. The final order was appealed to the TCEQ by two parties, and the TCEQ has exercised its legal authority to take no action within the required period, therefore affirming the TCEQ’s approval decision. As a result, the appealing parties have filed suit against the TCEQ in an effort to appeal the order. The additional revenue billed and collected in connection with the case are subject to refund based on the outcome of the appeal. The revenue recognized and the expenses deferred by the Company reflect an estimate of the final outcome of the case. As of June 30, 2009, the Company has deferred $8,574 of operating costs and $2,155 of rate case expenses and recognized $41,799 of revenue that is subject to refund based on the outcome of any appeals. Based on the Company’s review of the present circumstances, no reserve is considered necessary for the revenue recognized to date.

Note 11 Segment Information
The Company has identified fourteen operating segments and has one reportable segment named the Regulated segment. The reportable segment is comprised of thirteen operating segments for the Company’s water and wastewater regulated utility companies which are organized by the states where we provide these services. In addition, one segment is not quantitatively significant to be reportable and is comprised of the businesses that provide on-site septic tank pumping, sludge hauling services and certain other non-regulated water and wastewater services. This segment is included as a component of “Other” in the tables below. Also included in “Other” are corporate costs that have not been allocated to the Regulated segment and intersegment eliminations.

Note 12 Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 165, “Subsequent Events.” SFAS No. 165 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosing events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before financial statements are issued. This statement requires the disclosure of the date through which the Company has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date. This statement is effective for periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted SFAS No. 165 as required on June 30, 2009, and this statement did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. FAS 107-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” FSP No. FAS 107-1 amends FASB Statement No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” to require disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This FSP also amends Accounting Principle Board (APB) Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require such disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. This FSP is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. We adopted the provisions of FSP No. FAS 107-1 as of June 30, 2009. See Note 5,  Fair Value of Financial Instruments,  for applicable disclosures.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations,” which replaced SFAS No. 141. SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles for recognizing assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination, contractual contingencies and certain acquired contingencies to be measured at their fair values at the acquisition date. This statement requires that acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs be recognized separately from the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2009. With the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R), the Company’s accounting for business combinations changed on a prospective basis beginning with transactions closing in the first quarter of 2009.

(UNAUDITED)
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51.” This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. This statement requires expanded disclosures in the consolidated financial statements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interest of the parent and the interest of the noncontrolling owners. The Company adopted SFAS No. 160 as required on January 1, 2009, and this statement did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement applies when other statements require or permit the fair value measurement of assets and liabilities. This statement does not expand the use of fair value measurement. In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (“FSP 157-2”). FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for certain non-financial assets and liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 as required on January 1, 2008 for all financial assets and liabilities, and this statement did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position. Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157 on all non-financial assets and liabilities, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

Forward-looking Statements
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other sections of this Quarterly Report contain, in addition to historical information, forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements address, among other things: our use of cash; projected capital expenditures; liquidity; possible acquisitions and other growth ventures; the completion of various construction projects; the projected timing and annual value of rate increases; the recovery of certain costs and capital investments through rate increase requests; the projected effects of recent accounting pronouncements, as well as information contained elsewhere in this report where statements are preceded by, followed by or include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “intends,” “will,” “continue” or similar expressions. These statements are based on a number of assumptions concerning future events, and are subject to a number of uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside our control. Actual results may differ materially from such statements for a number of reasons, including the effects of regulation, abnormal weather, changes in capital requirements and funding, acquisitions, and our ability to assimilate acquired operations. In addition to these uncertainties or factors, our future results may be affected by the factors and risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
General Information
Nature of Operations — Aqua America, Inc. (“we” or “us”), a Pennsylvania corporation, is the holding company for regulated utilities providing water or wastewater services to what we estimate to be approximately 3 million people in Pennsylvania, Ohio, North Carolina, Illinois, Texas, New Jersey, New York, Florida, Indiana, Virginia, Maine, Missouri, and South Carolina. Our largest operating subsidiary, Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc., provides water or wastewater services to approximately one-half of the total number of people we serve, which are located in the suburban areas north and west of the City of Philadelphia and in 24 other counties in Pennsylvania. Our other subsidiaries provide similar services in 12 other states. In addition, we provide water and wastewater service through operating and maintenance contracts with municipal authorities and other parties, and septage services, close to our utility companies’ service territories. Aqua America, Inc., which prior to its name change in 2004 was known as Philadelphia Suburban Corporation, was formed in 1968 as a holding company for its primary subsidiary, Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc., formerly known as Philadelphia Suburban Water Company. In the early 1990’s we embarked on a growth through acquisition strategy focused on water and wastewater operations. Our most significant transactions to date have been the merger with Consumers Water Company in 1999, the acquisition of the regulated water and wastewater operations of AquaSource, Inc. in 2003, the acquisition of Heater Utilities, Inc. in 2004, and the acquisition of New York Water Service Corporation in 2007. Since the early 1990’s, our business strategy has been primarily directed toward the regulated water and wastewater utility industry and has extended our regulated operations from southeastern Pennsylvania to include operations in 12 other states.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
(In thousands of dollars, except per share amounts)
Financial Condition
During the first half of 2009, we had $117,134 of capital expenditures, repaid debt and made sinking fund contributions and other loan repayments of $3,650, and repaid $1,306 of customer advances for construction. The capital expenditures were related to improvements to treatment plants, new and rehabilitated water mains, tanks, hydrants, and service lines, well and booster improvements, and other enhancements and improvements.
At June 30, 2009, we had $13,822 of cash and cash equivalents compared to $14,944 at December 31, 2008. During the first half of 2009, we used the proceeds from the issuance of common stock, internally generated funds and available working capital, to fund the cash requirements discussed above and to pay dividends.
At June 30, 2009, our $95,000 unsecured revolving credit facility, which expires in May 2012, had $18,946 available for borrowing. At June 30, 2009, we had short-term lines of credit of $139,000, of which $41,922 was available. One of our short-term lines of credit is an Aqua Pennsylvania $70,000 364-day unsecured revolving credit facility with two banks. This facility is used to provide working capital and expires in December 2009. In addition, we have $66,500 of short-term lines of credit maturing in August and December 2009.
Our short-term lines of credit of $139,000 are subject to renewal on an annual basis. Although we believe we will be able to renew these facilities, there is no assurance that they will be renewed, or what the terms of any such renewal will be. The United States credit and liquidity crisis that started in 2008 which caused substantial volatility in capital markets, including credit markets and the banking industry, has increased the cost and significantly reduced the availability of credit from financing sources, which may continue or worsen in the future. If in the future, our credit facilities are not renewed or our short-term borrowings are called for repayment, we would have to seek alternative financing sources, although there can be no assurance that these alternative financing sources would be available on terms acceptable to us. In the event we are not able to obtain sufficient capital, we may need to reduce our capital expenditures and our ability to pursue acquisitions that we may rely on for future growth could be impaired.
The Company’s consolidated balance sheet historically has had a negative working capital position whereby routinely our current liabilities exceed our current assets. Management believes that internally generated funds along with existing credit facilities and the proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt and common stock will be adequate to provide sufficient working capital to maintain normal operations and to meet our financing requirements for the balance of the year and the reasonably foreseeable future.

Results of Operations
Analysis of First Six Months of 2009 Compared to First Six Months of 2008
Revenues for the first six months increased $31,786 or 11.0% primarily due to additional revenues associated with increased water and wastewater rates of $33,462 and additional wastewater and water revenues of $2,702 associated with a larger customer base due to acquisitions, offset partially by the loss of utility revenues of $1,391 associated with utility systems sold, and decreased water consumption as compared to the first six months of 2008. The decrease in customer water consumption is largely due to unfavorable weather conditions in our service territories during the first half of 2009 that reduced water usage.
Operations and maintenance expenses increased by $6,088 or 4.7% primarily due to increases in water production costs of $2,456, operating costs associated with acquisitions of $1,557, increased insurance and claims expense of $1,087, additional expenses resulting from the write-off of previously deferred expenses related to our rate filing in North Carolina of $996, and normal increases in other operating costs. In addition, pension expense increased as compared to the first six months of 2008, and most of the increased cost is recoverable in rates going forward. Offsetting these increases were the June 2009 gain on the sale of our utility system in Texas of $1,009, decreases in fuel costs for our service vehicles of $952, and reduced expenses of $703 associated with the dispositions of utility systems. The increased water production costs, principally purchased water, power, and chemicals were associated with vendor price increases.
Depreciation expense increased $9,259 or 22.0% due to an increase in deprecation rates, the utility plant placed in service since June 30, 2008, and additional expense of $2,037 resulting from a rate case adjustment related to our rate filing in North Carolina.
Amortization increased $3,634 primarily due to additional expense of $2,983 resulting from the recovery of our costs associated with our rate filing in Texas and $394 resulting from a rate case adjustment related to our rate filing in North Carolina, as well as the amortization of the costs associated with, and other costs being recovered in, various rate filings.
Taxes other than income taxes increased by $520 or 2.3% primarily due to an increase in the assessment of taxes associated with water pumping fees and an increase in gross receipts, excise and franchise taxes, offset by a reduction in the assessment of property taxes.
Interest expense decreased by $756 or 2.2% primarily due to decreased interest rates on short-term borrowings and long-term debt, offset partially by additional borrowings to finance capital projects.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
(In thousands of dollars, except per share amounts)
Allowance for funds used during construction (“AFUDC”) decreased by $863 primarily due to a decrease in short-term interest rates, which are a component of the applied AFUDC rate, as well as a decrease in the average balance of utility plant construction work in progress, to which AFUDC is applied.
Gain on sale of other assets totaled $213 during the half of 2009 and $553 in the first half of 2008. The decrease of $340 is due to the timing of sales of land and other property.
Our effective income tax rate was 39.9% in the first half of 2009 and 40.3% in the first half of 2008. The effective income tax rate decreased due to an increase in a tax credit for qualified domestic production activities in the first six months of 2009 versus the same period in 2008.
Net income attributable to common shareholders for the first half of 2009 increased by $7,351 or 19.9%, in comparison to the same period in 2008 primarily as a result of the factors described above. On a diluted per share basis, earnings increased $0.05 reflecting the change in net income attributable to common shareholders and a 1.4% increase in the average number of common shares outstanding. The increase in the number of shares outstanding is primarily a result of the issuance of 1,000,000 shares related to the settlement of the forward equity sale agreement in June 2008, and the additional shares sold or issued through our dividend reinvestment plan, equity compensation plan, and employee stock purchase plan.
Results of Operations
Analysis of Second Quarter of 2009 Compared to Second Quarter of 2008
Revenues for the quarter increased $16,582 or 11.0% primarily due to additional revenues associated with increased water and wastewater rates of $19,456 and additional wastewater and water revenues of $1,396 associated with a larger customer base due to acquisitions, offset partially by the loss of utility revenues of $561 associated with utility systems sold, and decreased water consumption as compared to the second quarter of 2008. The decrease in customer water consumption is largely due to unfavorable weather conditions in our service territories during the second quarter of 2009 that reduced water usage.
Operations and maintenance expenses increased by $3,403 or 5.2% primarily due to increases in water production costs of $1,152, operating costs associated with acquisitions of $847, increased insurance and claims expense of $491, and normal increases in other operating costs. In addition, pension expense increased as compared to the second quarter of 2008, and most of the increased cost is recoverable in rates going forward. Offsetting these increases were the gain on the sale of our utility system in Texas of $1,009, decreases in fuel costs for our service vehicles of $514, and reduced expenses of $297 associated with the dispositions of utility systems. The increased water production costs, principally purchased water, power, and chemicals were associated with vendor price increases.

Depreciation expense increased $4,353 or 21.1% due to an increase in depreciation rates, and the utility plant placed in service since June 30, 2008.
Amortization increased $2,052 due to additional expense of $1,792 resulting from recovery of our costs associated with our rate filing in Texas, and the amortization of the costs associated with, and other costs being recovered in, various rate filings.
Taxes other than income taxes increased by $1,039 or 9.6% primarily due to an increase in gross receipts, excise and franchise taxes, an increase in the assessment of taxes associated with water pumping fees, and an increase in property taxes.
Interest expense decreased by $254 or 1.5% primarily due to decreased interest rates on short-term borrowings and long-term debt, offset partially by additional borrowings to finance capital projects.
Allowance for funds used during construction (“AFUDC”) decreased by $532 primarily due to a decrease in short-term interest rates, which are a component of the applied AFUDC rate, as well as a decrease in the average balance of utility plant construction work in progress, to which AFUDC is applied.
Gain on sale of other assets totaled $80 in the second quarter of 2009 and $553 in the second quarter of 2008. The decrease of $473 is due to the timing of sales of land and other property.
Our effective income tax rate was 39.5% in the second quarter of 2009 and 40.2% in the second quarter of 2008. The effective income tax rate decreased due to an increase in a tax credit for qualified domestic production activities in the second quarter of 2009 versus the same period in 2008.
Net income attributable to common shareholders for the quarter increased by $3,301 or 14.6%, in comparison to the same period in 2008 primarily as a result of the factors described above. On a diluted per share basis, earnings increased $0.02 reflecting the change in net income attributable to common shareholders and a 1.4% increase in the average number of common shares outstanding. The increase in the number of shares outstanding is primarily a result of the issuance of 1,000,000 shares related to the settlement of the forward equity sale agreement in June 2008, and the additional shares sold or issued through our dividend reinvestment plan, equity compensation plan, and employee stock purchase plan.

Item 3.	 	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk	
We are subject to market risks in the normal course of business, including changes in interest rates and equity prices. There have been no significant changes in our exposure to market risks since December 31, 2008. Refer to Item 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 for additional information.
 	 	 	
Item 4.	 	Controls and Procedures	

 	(a)	 	Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures	
 	 	 	 	
 	 	 	Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.	
 	 	 	 	
 	(b)	 	Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting	
 	 	 	 	
 	 	 	No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.	
Part II. Other Information
 	 	 	
Item 1.	 	Legal Proceedings	
In 2004, our subsidiaries in Texas filed an application with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”) to increase rates over a multi-year period. On September 23, 2008, the TCEQ issued its final ruling with a unanimous decision approving this rate application. The final order was appealed to the TCEQ by two parties, and the TCEQ has exercised its legal authority to take no action within the required period, therefore affirming the TCEQ’s approval decision. As a result, the appealing parties have filed suit against the TCEQ in the Travis County District Court in an effort to appeal the order. In accordance with authorization from the TCEQ in 2004, our subsidiaries commenced billing for the requested rates and deferred recognition of certain expenses for financial statement purposes. In the event the TCEQ’s final order is overturned on appeal, completely or in part, we could be required to refund some or all of the revenue billed to-date, and write-off some or all of the regulatory asset for the expense deferral. For more information, see the description under the section captioned “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, and refer to “Note 9 – Water and Wastewater Rates” to the Consolidated Financial Statements of Aqua America, Inc. and subsidiaries in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.

The City of Fort Wayne, Indiana (“the City”) has authorized the acquisition by eminent domain of the northern portion of the utility system of one of the Company’s operating subsidiaries in Indiana. We challenged whether the City was following the correct legal procedures in connection with the City’s condemnation, but the Indiana Supreme Court, in an opinion issued in June 2007, supported the City’s position. In October 2007, the City’s Board of Public Works approved proceeding with its process to condemn the northern portion of our utility system at a preliminary price based on the City’s valuation. In October 2007, we filed an appeal with a local circuit court challenging the Board of Public Works’ valuation on several bases. In November 2007, the City Council authorized the taking of this portion of our system and the payment of $16,910,500 based on the City’s valuation of the system. In January 2008, we reached a settlement agreement with the City to transition this portion of the system in February 2008 upon receipt of the City’s initial valuation payment of $16,910,500. The settlement agreement specifically states that the final valuation of the northern portion of the system will be determined through a continuation of the legal proceedings that were filed challenging the City’s valuation. On February 12, 2008, we turned over the northern portion of the system to the City upon receipt of the initial valuation payment. The Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission also reviewed and acknowledged the transfer of the Certificate of Territorial Authority for the northern portion of the system to the City. The proceeds received by the Company are in excess of the book value of the assets relinquished. No gain has been recognized due to the contingency over the final valuation of the assets. On March 16, 2009, oral argument was held on certain procedural aspects with respect to the valuation evidence that may be presented and whether we are entitled to a jury trial. We expect a ruling from the judge in the second half of 2009. Depending upon the outcome of the legal proceeding in the circuit court we may be required to refund a portion of the initial valuation payment, or may receive additional proceeds. The northern portion of the system relinquished represented approximately 0.5% of Aqua America, Inc.’s total assets.
A lawsuit was filed by a husband and wife who lived in a house abutting a percolation pond at a Pasco County, Florida wastewater treatment plant owned by one of the Company’s subsidiaries, Aqua Utilities Florida, Inc. The lawsuit was originally filed in August 2006 in the circuit court for the Sixth Judicial Circuit in and for Pasco County, Florida and has been amended several times by the plaintiffs. The lawsuit alleges our subsidiary was negligent in the design, operation and maintenance of the plant, resulting in bodily injury to the plaintiffs and various damages to their property. The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in July 2008 to include additional counts alleging nuisance and strict liability. In the third quarter of 2008, approximately thirty-five additional plaintiffs, associated with approximately eight other homes in the area, filed another lawsuit with the same court making similar allegations against our subsidiary with respect to the operation of the facility. They are represented by the same counsel as the original 2006 plaintiffs. Both lawsuits have been submitted to our insurance carriers, who have reserved their rights with respect to various portions of the plaintiffs’ claims. Based on the ultimate outcome of the litigation, we may or may not have insurance coverage for parts or all of the claims. We believe that the plaintiffs’ claims in both lawsuits are without foundation. At this time, it is impossible to estimate the likelihood of a loss in these matters or the extent of a loss should one occur.

Two homeowners’ associations comprised of approximately 170 homes located next to a wastewater plant owned by one of the Company’s subsidiaries in Indiana are claiming that the subsidiary’s prior management, before our acquisition of the subsidiary in 2003, allegedly entered into an agreement to cease the majority of operations at the wastewater plant and to remove most of the facilities located at the plant site by April 2009. The plant treats approximately 75% of wastewater flow from the subsidiary’s 12,000 customers in the area. The Company has filed a formal request for review of the purported agreement with the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission. If the purported agreement is ultimately determined to be valid, the subsidiary may be subject to liability to the homeowners for failure to remove the plant and/or, if the agreement is enforced, the subsidiary may be required to construct a new plant elsewhere and close and remove the existing plant. While the Company continues to assess the matter and any potential losses, we cannot currently estimate the likelihood of a loss in connection with this matter or the extent of a loss should one occur. Based on our current understanding of the controversy, this matter would not be covered by any of the Company’s insurance policies.
There are no other pending legal proceedings to which we or any of our subsidiaries is a party or to which any of their properties is the subject that are material or are expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 	 	 	
Item 1A.	 	Risk Factors	
There have been no material changes to the risks disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 (“Form 10-K”) under “Part 1, Item 1A – Risk Factors.” The risks described in our Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks that we do not presently know or that we currently believe are immaterial could also impair our business, financial position, or future results and prospects.

THIS FORTY-FOURTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE dated as of July 1, 2009, by and between AQUA PENNSYLVANIA, INC. (f/k/a Pennsylvania Suburban Water Company), a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “Company”) as successor by merger to the Philadelphia Suburban Water Company (the “Original Company”), party of the first part, and THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON TRUST COMPANY, N.

A. (hereinafter called the “Trustee”) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the sum of Fifty-eight Million Dollars in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts and to pay interest thereon to the registered owner hereof by draft or check of the Trustee mailed to such registered owner from the interest payment date next preceding the date of the authentication of this Bond (or if this Bond is authenticated after a Record Date as defined below and on or before the succeeding interest payment date, from such succeeding interest payment date, or if this Bond is authenticated on or prior to October 1, 2009 from the date hereof) until the principal hereof shall become due and payable, at the rate of 5.00% per annum, payable semiannually in like coin or currency on the first day of April and the first day of October in each year, commencing October 1, 2009 and to pay interest on overdue principal (including any overdue required or optional prepayment of principal) and premium, if any, and, to the extent legally enforceable, on any overdue installment of interest at a rate of 5.00% per annum after maturity whether by acceleration or otherwise until paid.
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

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 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

 
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.

Each Bond shall be dated the date of its authentication and shall bear interest from the interest payment date next preceding the date of the authentication of such Bond (or if such Bond is authenticated after a Record Date as defined below and on or before the succeeding interest payment date, from such succeeding interest payment date, or if such Bond is authenticated on or prior to the record date for the first interest payment date for the Bonds, in which case it shall bear interest from the date of original issuance of the Bonds); provided, however, that, if at the time of authentication of any Bond, interest on the predecessor Bond of such Bond is in default, such Bond shall bear interest from the date to which interest has been paid, or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of original issuance thereof.

The principal of, and interest on the Bonds shall be payable at the designated office of the trustee in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and shall be payable, along with interest on the Bonds, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts; each installment of interest shall be paid by check to the order of the person entitled thereto, mailed to such person’s address as the same appears on the books maintained for such purpose by or on behalf of the Company, or by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to instructions and conditions incorporated in an agreement between such person and the Trustee or the Company.
The person in whose name any Bond is registered at the close of business on any Record Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to any interest payment date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such interest payment date notwithstanding the cancellation of such Bond upon any transfer or exchange subsequent to the Record Date and prior to such interest payment date; provided, however, that if and to the extent the Company shall default in

All Bonds deemed to have been paid in full as provided in Section 4 and 5 of this Article I of this Forty-fourth Supplemental Indenture shall be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee shall forthwith cancel the same and, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and the Trustee’s policies and procedures, and on the written request of the Company, deliver the same to the Company.

On the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Underwriters will buy from the Authority, and the Authority will sell to the Underwriters, all (but not less than all) of the Bonds at a purchase price equal to $55,110,440.00 which is equal to the $58,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Bonds, less original issue discount of $2,019,560, less the underwriting discount of $870,000.

The Indenture of Mortgage has been and the Forty-fourth Supplemental Mortgage will be duly filed, recorded or registered in each place in the Commonwealth in which such filing, recording or registration was or is required to protect and preserve the lien of the Mortgage; and all necessary approvals of regulatory authorities, commissions and other governmental bodies having jurisdiction over the Company required to subject the mortgaged properties and assets or trust estate (as defined in the Mortgage) to the lien of the Mortgage have been duly obtained.

The Company has the legal power to exercise the rights of eminent domain for the purposes of conducting its water utility operations.

6

 
imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance (other than the lien of the Mortgage) upon any of the property or assets of the Company pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company are subject, nor will such action result in a violation of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Bylaws of the Company or any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its property.

(k) The Project consists of either land or property of a character subject to depreciation for federal income tax purposes and will be used to furnish water that is or will be made available to members of the general public (including electric utility, industrial, agricultural, or commercial users); the rates for the furnishing or sale of the water have been established or approved by a state or political subdivision thereof, by an agency or instrumentality of the United States, or by a public service or public utility commission or other similar body of any state or political subdivision thereof; and all other information supplied by the Company to the Underwriters with respect to the exclusion from gross income pursuant to Section 103 of the Code of the interest on the Bonds is correct and complete.

(a) Furnish such information, execute such instruments and take such other action in cooperation with the Underwriters as the Underwriters may reasonably request to qualify the Bonds for offer and sale under the Blue Sky or other securities laws and regulations of such states and other jurisdictions in the United States of America as the Underwriters may designate and will assist, if necessary therefor, in the continuance of such qualifications in effect so long as required for distribution of the Bonds; provided, however, that the Authority shall in no event be required to file a general consent to suit or service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any such state or other jurisdiction.
(b) Not, on its part, amend or supplement the Official Statement without prior notice to and the consent of the Underwriters and the Company and will advise the Underwriters and the Company promptly of the institution of any proceedings by any governmental agency or otherwise affecting the use of the Official Statement in connection with the offer and sale of the Bonds.
(c) Refrain from knowingly taking any action (and permitting any action with regard to which the Authority may exercise control) that would result in the loss of the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds.
Section 6. Company’s Covenants. The Company agrees that it will:
(a) Refrain from knowingly taking any actions (and from permitting any action with regard to which the Company may exercise control) that would result in the loss of the exclusion from gross income for federal tax purposes of interest on the Bonds.
(b) Indemnify and hold harmless the Authority, its members, directors, officers, agents, attorneys, and employees and the Underwriters, their respective officers, directors, officials, agents, attorneys, employees, and each person, if any, who controls each of the Underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several, to which the Authority and the Underwriters, or either of them, or any of their respective members, directors, officers, agents, attorneys, and employees and each person, if any, who controls the Underwriters within the meaning of the 1933 Act or 1934 Act as aforedescribed may become subject, under federal laws or regulations, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) a breach of the Company’s representations included in this Agreement; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material

8

 
fact pertaining to the Project or the Company set forth in the Official Statement, the Preliminary Official Statement or any amendment to either; (iii) the willful or negligent omission of (or the alleged omission to state) a material fact in the Official Statement, the Preliminary Official Statement, or any amendment or supplement to either, as such fact is required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein that pertain to the Company or the Project not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made; (iv) or arising by virtue of the failure to register the Bonds under the 1933 Act or the failure to qualify the Trust Indenture under the 1939 Act; or (v) arising by virtue of any audit or investigation conducted by a state or federal agency, department or entity questioning, among other things, the tax-exempt status of the Bonds.
(c) Undertake, pursuant to the Continuing Disclosure Agreement dated as of July 1, 2009 to be entered into between the Company and the Trustee (the “Continuing Disclosure Agreement”), to provide annual reports and notices of certain material events in accordance with Rule l5c2-l2 under the 1934 Act, as amended (“Rule 15c2-12”).
(d) Not amend or supplement the Official Statement without prior notice to, and the consent of, the Underwriters, and will advise the Underwriters and the Authority promptly of the institution of any proceedings by any governmental agency or otherwise affecting the use of the Official Statement in connection with the offer and the sale of the Bonds.
(e) Take all actions reasonably necessary to maintain in effect and to comply with the order of the Commonwealth Public Utility Commission dated March 26, 2009, registering the Securities Certificate for the issuance of the First Mortgage Bond in support of the Bonds.
Section 7. Underwriters’ Covenant and Compensation.
(a) By acceptance hereof the Underwriters agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Authority, its members, directors, officers, agents, attorneys, and employees and the Company, its officers, directors, agents, attorneys, and employees and each person if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act against all or several claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses asserted against them, or any of them, at law or in equity, in connection with the offering and sale of the Bonds on the grounds that the information under the caption “UNDERWRITING” in the Preliminary Official Statement or the Official Statement (or any supplement or amendment to said information) contains an untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact or omits or allegedly omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made (it being understood that the Underwriters furnished only the information under such “UNDERWRITING” heading), or failure on the part of the Underwriters to deliver an Official Statement to any purchaser. The Underwriters will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by a party, person or entity indemnifiable under this Section 7 in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Underwriters may otherwise have. The Underwriters shall not be liable for any settlement of, any such action effected without its consent.

9

 
(b) The Underwriters will be paid an underwriting discount of $870,000 with respect to the Bonds.
(c) The Underwriters acknowledge that the Authority is relying upon the accuracy of the certification in clause (b) above on the date hereof as a condition precedent to lending the proceeds of the Bonds to the Company.
Section 8. Notice of Indemnification; Settlement. Promptly after a party, person or entity indemnifiable under Section 6 or 7 of this Bond Purchase Agreement (an “Indemnitee”) receives notice of the commencement of any audit, investigation or action against such Indemnitee in respect of which indemnity is to be sought by the Indemnitee against the Company or any of the respective Underwriters, as the case may be (the “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnitee will notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such action, and the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel and the payment of all expenses; but the failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to the Indemnitee otherwise than hereunder. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its consent, but if settled with the consent of the Indemnifying Party or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the Indemnifying Party will indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitee from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. The indemnity agreements contained in this Bond Purchase Agreement shall include reimbursement for expenses reasonably incurred by an Indemnitee in investigating the claim and in defending it if the Indemnifying Party declines to assume the defense and shall survive delivery of the Bonds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of an investigation or audit by the Internal Revenue Service or the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other state or federal agency, department, or entity with respect to the Bonds, the Authority shall have the right and duty to undertake its own defense, including the employment of counsel, with full power to litigate, compromise or settle the same on its own behalf, and the Company agrees that it will indemnify and hold the Authority harness for all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, attorney fees and expenses and costs, of any such settlement.
Section 9. Equitable Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6(b) of this Bond Purchase Agreement is unavailable to either of the respective Underwriters (or any controlling person thereof) in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then the Company shall, in lieu of indemnifying each or one of the respective Underwriters, contribute to the amount paid or payable by each or any of the Underwriters as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and each of the Underwriters, respectively, from the offering of the Bonds. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then the Company shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by the Underwriters in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and each of the Underwriters, respectively, in connection with the statements or omission which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefit received by the Company or the Underwriters shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering (before deducting issuance costs and expenses other than

10

 
underwriting fees and commissions) received by the Company, on the one hand, bear to the total Underwriting fees and commissions received by each of the Underwriters, on the other hand. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact related to information supplied by the Company or each of the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 9. The amount paid or payable by each of the Underwriters as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to above in this Section 9 shall be deemed to include any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by each of the respective Underwriters in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, the Underwriters shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount of the discount allowed to each of the respective Underwriters as set forth in Section 7(b) hereof.
Section 10. Official Statement; Public Offering.
(a) In order to enable the Underwriters to comply with Rule l5c2-l2, the Company has prepared (or caused to be prepared) the Preliminary Official Statement, which the Company and the Authority (in the case of the Authority, only with respect to the information therein under the headings “THE AUTHORITY” and, insofar as they relate to the Authority, “INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT” and “ABSENCE OF MATERIAL LITIGATION”) deem final and complete as of its date except for certain permitted omissions as described in Rule l5c2-l2. The Company shall provide to the Underwriters sufficient copies of the Official Statement in sufficient time to accompany any confirmation that requires payment from any customer and in any event within seven (7) business days after the date of this Bond Purchase Agreement. If the Company, during the period described in Section l0(b) below, has or gains knowledge of a fact or circumstance that would render the Official Statement misleading in any material respect, then the Company shall promptly give the Underwriters written notice thereof. The Authority and the Company hereby authorize the use of the Preliminary Official Statement and the Official Statement by the Underwriters in connection with the offering of the Bonds.
(b) The Authority and the Company will not adopt or distribute any amendment of or supplement to the Official Statement, except with the prior written consent of the Underwriters. If from the date hereof until the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days after the end of the underwriting period (as defined in Rule l5c2-12) or (ii) the time when the Official Statement is available to any person from the Repository with which it has been deposited, but in no case less than twenty-five (25) days following the end of the underwriting period, any event relating to or affecting the Authority, the Company or the Bonds shall occur, the result of which shall make it necessary, in the opinion of the Underwriters, to amend or supplement the Official Statement in order to make it not misleading in the light of the circumstances existing at that time, the Company shall forthwith prepare, and the Company and the Authority shall approve for distribution, a reasonable number of copies of an amendment of or supplement to the Official Statement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Underwriters, so that the Official

11

 
Statement then will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at that time, not misleading. The Authority shall cooperate with the Company in the issuance and distribution of any such amendment or supplement.
(c) Upon Closing, the Underwriters shall promptly provide the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (which as of July 1, 2009, is the only nationally recognized municipal securities information repository) with a copy of the Official Statement for filing in accordance with Rule 15c2-l2, and inform the Authority and the Company in writing as to the date and place of such filing and the date of the end of the underwriting period.
Section 11. Conditions of Underwriters’ and Authority’s Obligations. The Underwriters’ obligations to purchase and pay for the Bonds and the Authority’s obligation to issue and deliver the Bonds are subject to fulfillment of the following conditions at or before Closing:
(a) The representations of the Authority and the Company herein, as applicable, shall be true in all material respects on and as of the date of the Closing and shall be confirmed by appropriate certificates at Closing.

Exhibit “A”
FORM OF APPROVING OPINION OF BALLARD SPAHR ANDREWS AND INGERSOLL, LLP
Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll, LLP will render an opinion in substantially
the following form in connection with the issuance of the Bonds.
July 16, 2009
 	 	 	
          Re:	 	$58,000,000 principal amount of Pennsylvania Economic Development
Financing Authority Water Facilities Revenue Bonds
(Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc., Project) Series A of 2009	
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as Bond Counsel to the Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority (the “Authority”) in connection with the issuance and sale of $58,000,000 principal amount of its Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority Water Facilities Revenue Bonds (Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. Project) Series A of 2009 (the “Bonds”). The Bonds are being issued by the Authority at the request of Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc., as successor to Philadelphia Suburban Water Company (the “Company”), to finance facilities located in the Pennsylvania Counties of Chester, Delaware and Montgomery (the “Project Facilities”) for the furnishing of water which is made available on reasonable demand to members of the general public in portions of the Pennsylvania Counties of Chester, Delaware and Montgomery.
The Bonds are being issued in fully registered form under a Trust Indenture dated as of July 1, 2009 (the “Indenture”) between the Authority and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Authority and the Company are entering into a Financing Agreement dated as of July 1, 2009 (the “Financing Agreement”), pursuant to which the Authority will lend the proceeds of the Bonds to the Company to finance the Project Facilities.
In satisfaction of its obligation under the Financing Agreement with respect to the Bonds, the Company, concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds, is delivering to the Trustee its First Mortgage Bond  _____  % Due 2039 *  (the “First Mortgage Bond”) in the principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Bonds. The Authority has assigned its interests under the Financing Agreement with respect to the Bonds, including its right to receive the First Mortgage Bond and the payments thereunder, to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Bonds.
Sections 103 and 141-150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), provide generally that interest on certain issues of bonds, the proceeds of which are to be used to provide facilities for the furnishing of water within the meaning of Section 142(a) of the Code, will be excludable from the gross income of the holder thereof. The Code imposes various requirements pertaining to the use and investment of the proceeds of such bonds, the maturity of and security for such bonds, the procedure for issuance of such bonds, the rebate of arbitrage profits to the Internal Revenue Service and filings with the Internal Revenue Service. We have concluded that the Bonds meet the requirements of the Code in reliance on representations of the Authority and the Company with respect to the application of the proceeds of the Bonds, the nature of the Project Facilities and other matters solely within the knowledge of the Authority and the Company which we have not independently verified, and have

A-1

 
assumed continuing compliance with the covenants in the Indenture, the Financing Agreement and the certificates of the Company with respect to the Project Facilities delivered at closing pertaining to the requirements of those sections of the Code which affect the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds for federal income tax purposes. In the event that such representations are determined to be inaccurate or incomplete or the Authority or the Company fails to comply with the aforementioned covenants, interest on the Bonds could become includable in gross income from the date of issuance, regardless of the date on which the event causing such inclusion occurs.
In our capacity as Bond Counsel, we have examined such documents, records of the Authority and other instruments as we deemed necessary to enable us to express the opinions set forth below, including original counterparts or certified copies of the Indenture, the Financing Agreement, the First Mortgage Bond, the other documents listed in the closing memorandum filed with the Trustee and an executed Water Facilities Revenue Bond (Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. Project) Series A of 2009 as authenticated by the Trustee.
Based on the foregoing, it is our opinion that:
1. The Authority is a public instrumentality of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and a body corporate and politic, organized and existing under Pennsylvania law, with full power and authority to execute and deliver the Financing Agreement and the Indenture, and to issue and sell the Bonds.
2. The Financing Agreement and the Indenture have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Authority and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Authority enforceable against the Authority in accordance with their respective terms, subject to state and federal laws and equitable principles affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights.
3. All right, title and interest of the Authority under the Financing Agreement as they relate to the Bonds, including the right to receive the First Mortgage Bond and the payments thereunder (except for certain rights to indemnification and to payments in respect of administrative expenses of the Authority), have been effectively assigned to the Trustee by the Indenture.
4. The issuance and sale of the Bonds have been duly authorized by the Authority; the Bonds have been duly executed and delivered by the Authority; and, on the assumption that all Bonds have been authenticated by the Trustee, the Bonds are legal, valid and binding obligations of the Authority enforceable against the Authority in accordance with their terms, subject to state and federal laws and equitable principles affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights, and are entitled to the benefit and security of the Indenture.
5. Interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income for purposes of federal income tax under existing laws as enacted and construed on the date of initial delivery of the Bonds, assuming the accuracy of the certifications of the Authority and the Company and continuing compliance by the Authority and the Company with the requirements of the Code, except that interest on a Bond is not excludable while the Bond is held by a substantial user of the financed facilities or a related person as provided in the Code. Interest on the Bonds is exempt from individual and corporate federal alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) and is not includable in adjusted current earnings for purposes of corporate AMT. We express no opinion regarding other federal tax consequences relating to ownership or disposition of, or the accrual or receipt of interest on, the Bonds.
6. Under the existing laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as enacted and construed on the date of initial delivery of the Bonds, interest on the Bonds is exempt from Pennsylvania personal income tax and Pennsylvania corporate net income tax, and the Bonds are exempt from personal property taxes in Pennsylvania.

A-2

 
We do not express any opinion herein as to the adequacy or accuracy of the Official Statement of the Authority pertaining to the offering of the Bonds.
We call your attention to the fact that the Authority’s obligation to make payments in respect of the Bonds is limited to moneys received from payments to be made by the Company pursuant to the First Mortgage Bond and as provided in the Indenture and that the Bonds do not pledge the credit or taxing power of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any political subdivision thereof. The Authority has no taxing power.
Very truly yours,

OF BALLARD SPAHR ANDREWS & INGERSOLL, LLP

1. The Bond Purchase Agreement dated June 30, 2009 (the “Bond Purchase Agreement”), among you, the Company and the Authority relating to the Bonds has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Authority and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Authority enforceable against the Authority in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity.
2. It is not necessary in connection with the offering and sale of the Bonds to register the Bonds under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to qualify the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.
3. The information in the Official Statement under the captions “INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT -Description of the Bonds” and “INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT -Security for the Bonds,” “THE BONDS” (other than the information under the sub-caption “Book-Entry Only System,” as to which we express no view) and “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS” (other than the information under the sub-captions “The Mortgage” and “Additional Parity Indebtedness” as to which we express no view) and the information set forth in Appendix C to the Official Statement (other than information under the heading “THE FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS AND THE MORTGAGE” as to which we express no view), insofar as such information purports to summarize provisions of the Bonds, the Indenture and the Agreement, fairly and accurately summarize such information in all material respects. The information in the Official Statement under the caption “TAX MATTERS” and the related information set forth on the outside front cover of the Official Statement accurately reflect our firm’s opinion with respect to the matters discussed therein in all material respects.
This letter is furnished by us solely for your benefit in connection with the provisions of the Bond Purchase Agreement and may not be relied upon by any other persons for any purpose without our express written permission.
Very truly yours,

Re:	 	Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority Water Facilities Revenue Bonds (Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. Project), Series A of 2009	
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Office of Chief Counsel of the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development, which agency is responsible for providing staff services to Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority (the “Authority”), a public body corporate and politic and a public instrumentality of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, has participated in the proceedings relating to the authorization and issuance 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 “Bonds”).
The Bonds are being issued under and pursuant to the Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Law (Act No. 102, approved August 23, 1967, P.L. 251, as amended, including the amendments effected by Act No. 48, approved July 10, 1987, P.L. 273, and Act No. 74, approved December 17, 1993, P.L. 490) (the “Act”), a certain Trust Indenture dated as of July 1, 2009 (the “Indenture”) by and between the Authority and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee (the “Trustee”) and resolution of the Authority adopted on January 21, 2009 (the “Resolution”) authorizing the issuance of the Bonds.

 

 
The Bonds are being issued for the purpose of providing financing for a certain project (the “Project”) as more fully described in the Financing Agreement (hereafter defined), for the benefit of Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. (the “Borrower”). The Project has been authorized and approved by the Chester County Industrial Development Authority for financing by the Authority pursuant to the Act.
The Authority and the Borrower have entered into a Financing Agreement dated as of July 1, 2009 (the “Financing Agreement”) providing, among other things, for a loan in the principal amount of the Bonds to pay costs of the Project and for the repayment of such loan by the Borrower in such amounts and at such times as are required to pay the interest on and the principal of the Bonds when due. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Authority has assigned to the Trustee all its rights, title and interest in, to and under the Loan Agreement (except as otherwise provided therein).
The Authority has entered into a Bond Purchase Agreement with Jefferies & Company, Inc., as Representative for Janney Montgomery Scott LLC and Jefferies & Company, Inc. (collectively, the “Underwriters”), and the Borrower dated June 30, 2009 (the “Bond Purchase Agreement”) providing for the offering and sale of the Bonds, and pursuant thereto the Authority has authorized the use of an Official Statement dated June 30, 2009, in connection with the offering and sale of the Bonds (the “Official Statement”). The Indenture, the Financing Agreement and the Bond Purchase Agreement are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Authority Documents”.
In the course of serving as counsel to the Authority, the Office of Chief Counsel has examined the Indenture, the Financing Agreement, the Bond Purchase Agreement, and such legislation, proceedings, certificates, records, approvals, resolutions and other documents as have been deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion.
The Office of Chief Counsel has assumed and relied upon the truth, completeness, authority and accuracy of all documents, certificates and instruments examined and the authenticity of all signatures thereon other than those of the Authority.
The Office of Chief Counsel has also assumed that each of the documents referred to herein are, where appropriate, duly authorized and executed by and valid and legally binding obligations of, and enforceable in accordance with their terms against all parties thereto other than the Authority and that the actions required to be taken or consents required to be obtained by such parties have been taken and obtained. In rendering this opinion, The Office of Chief Counsel has also assumed that such parties have acted in full compliance with the terms of all applicable laws, regulations and orders.
As to questions of fact material to this opinion, The Office of Chief Counsel has relied upon certificates and representations of officers and representatives of the Authority or of other public officials, without independent investigation.

 

 
The Office of Chief Counsel has not made any independent investigation in rendering this opinion other than the examination described above. This opinion is therefore qualified in all respects by the scope of that examination.
The Office of Chief Counsel’s opinions are specifically limited to the present internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (“Commonwealth”) and no opinion is expressed as to the effect the laws of any other jurisdiction may have upon the subject matter of the opinions expressed herein under conflict of laws principles or otherwise.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the limitations, assumptions, qualifications and exceptions set forth herein, the Office of Chief Counsel is of the opinion that:
1. The Authority is a public body corporate and politic and a public instrumentality of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, organized and existing under the Act. Under the Act, and by the Resolution, the Authority has full power and authority to undertake the financing of the Project, to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Indenture, the Financing Agreement and the Bond Purchase Agreement and to issue and deliver the Bonds.
2. The Resolution has been duly adopted by the Authority in compliance with the Pennsylvania Sunshine Act of October 15, 1998, P.L. 729, No. 93 (65 P.S. § 701 et seq.) The Resolution complies in all respects with the procedural rules of the Authority and the requirements of Pennsylvania law, constitutes the legal, valid and binding act of the Authority and remains in full force and effect on the date hereof.
3. The Authority has duly authorized the execution and issuance of the Bonds and the execution and delivery of the Authority Documents. The Bonds have been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Authority and the Authority Documents have each been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Authority and the Bonds and each of the Authority Documents are valid and binding agreements of the Authority, enforceable against the Authority in accordance with their respective terms.
4. The directors and officers of the Authority identified in the Authority’s General Certificate delivered at the closing for the issuance of the Bonds have been duly elected or appointed, and are qualified to serve as such. To the best of our knowledge, no director or officer of the Authority has any financial interest, direct or indirect, in the Borrower or the Project or the financing thereof.
5. The Indenture, the Financing Agreement, the Bond Purchase Agreement and the Bonds have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Authority and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties thereto, constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Authority enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforcement may be limited by general principles of equity, regardless of whether applied in proceedings in equity or at law, or by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

 

 
6. The execution and the issuance by the Authority of the Bonds, the execution and delivery by the Authority of the Authority Documents and performance by the Authority of the Authority’s obligations under the Bonds and the Authority Documents, do not conflict with or constitute on the part of the Authority a violation of, breach of or default under any existing constitutional provision or statute of the Commonwealth applicable to the Authority, or, to our knowledge without having undertaken any independent investigation, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, resolution, note agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Authority is a party or by which the Authority is bound and which is known to the Office of Chief Counsel, or, to our knowledge, without having undertaken any independent investigation, any order, rule or regulation of any court, governmental agency or body of the Commonwealth having jurisdiction over the Authority or any of its activities or property. In rendering the opinion set forth in this paragraph, we have relied without independent investigation on the representations of the Borrower that the Project will be located in Pennsylvania and will not be used in whole or in part for illegal activities.
7. To our knowledge, without having undertaken any independent investigation, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation, at law or in equity, before or by any court, public board or body, pending or threatened against the Authority, wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or order would materially and adversely affect the obligations of the Authority under the Bonds.
8. Except for any approval, consent or authorization required under the securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Bonds, as to which no opinion is expressed, no additional or further approval, consent or authorization of any governmental or public agency or authority not already obtained is required by the Authority in connection with the issuance of delivery of the Bonds or the entering into and performance of its obligation under the Indenture, the Financing Agreement or the Bond Purchase Agreement.
9. The Authority has approved the distribution of the Preliminary Official Statement dated June 25, 2009 and the Official Statement by the Underwriter in connection with the offering of the Bonds.
10. The information contained in the Official Statement under the headings “INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT — The Authority,” “THE AUTHORITY” and “ABSENCE OF MATERIAL LITIGATION” (solely insofar as the information set forth therein relates to the Authority) has been reviewed and nothing has come to our attention which would lead us to believe that such information contains any untrue statement of a material fact +or omits to state a material fact which is required to be stated therein or which is necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect. Except as set forth in this paragraph, no opinion is expressed with respect to the adequacy or accuracy of the Official Statement or other information pertaining to the offering for sale of the Bonds.

 

 
The opinions expressed herein are subject in all respects to the following qualifications: (a) no opinion is rendered as to the availability of equitable remedies including, but not limited to, specific performance and injunctive relief, whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law; (b) no opinion is rendered as to the effect of bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium and other similar laws or legal principles affecting creditors’ rights or remedies; (c) no opinion is rendered as to the creation, perfection or priority of any lien or security interest; (d) no opinion is rendered with respect to any “blue sky” or other securities laws of the Commonwealth or of other jurisdictions; and (e) no opinion is rendered with regard to any federal income tax law or regulation or any state tax law or regulation of the Commonwealth or of other jurisdictions.
No opinion is expressed as to the validity or enforceability of any provisions of the Authority Documents: (a) allowing any person or entity to institute judicial or non judicial proceedings or to exercise any other rights, without notice to the person or entity against whom enforcement is sought; (b) waiving any right or defense of any person or entity; (c) providing or implying the availability of self-help in any particular event or circumstances; (d) relating to court costs or legal fees which may be properly chargeable or recoverable in any judicial proceedings; and (e) relating to indemnification.
We call your attention to the fact that the Bonds are special and limited obligations of the Authority, payable solely from the payments derived by the Authority under the Financing Agreement. The Bonds are not obligations or liabilities of the Commonwealth or any political subdivision thereof nor do the Bonds pledge the credit of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any political subdivision thereof nor do the Bonds pledge the credit of the Authority (other than to the limited extent described above). The Authority has no taxing power.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof. No opinion is expressed as to any matter not set forth in the numbered paragraphs herein. We make no undertaking to supplement this opinion if facts or circumstances hereafter come to our attention or changes in law occur after the date hereof. This opinion is rendered solely in connection with the original delivery and payment for the Bonds on the date hereof, and may not be relied upon for any other purpose. This opinion may not be relied upon by any other person, including any purchaser of the Bonds from the Underwriter or otherwise or for any other purpose, nor may this opinion be distributed, quoted or disclosed to any person, firm or entity without the Office of Chief Counsel’s prior written consent in each instance.
The opinions herein expressed are issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development Office of Chief Counsel, a division of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Office of General Counsel, each of which is an executive agency of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and not by any individual attorney therein either individually or as an employee of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

          Re:	 	$58,000,000 principal amount of Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority Water Facilities Revenue Bonds (Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. Project) Series A of 2009	
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. (the “Company”) in connection with (i) the issuance by the Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority (the “Authority”), and the sale to Jefferies & Company, Inc. and Janney Montgomery Scott LLC, pursuant to that certain Bond Purchase Agreement dated June 30, 2009 (the “Purchase Agreement”), of $58,000,000 principal amount of Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority Water Facilities Revenue Bonds (Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. Project), Series A of 2009 (the “Authority Bonds”), and (ii) the issuance and delivery of the Company’s First Mortgage Bond,  _____  % Series due 2039 in the principal amount of $58,000,000 (the “First Mortgage Bond”), issued under an Indenture of Mortgage (the “Original Mortgage”) dated as of January 1, 1941, as amended and supplemented by supplemental indentures thereto, including the Forty-fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 1, 2009 (the “Supplemental Indenture”) under which The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. is successor trustee (the “Mortgage Trustee”). The original Mortgage as amended and supplemented is hereinafter called the “Mortgage”. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

 

 
We have examined and reviewed, among other things:
(a) a copy of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended and restated and now in effect;
(b) a copy of the bylaws of the Company as now in effect;
(c) resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company authorizing the execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, the Financing Agreement, the Supplemental Indenture, the First Mortgage Bonds, the Continuing Disclosure Agreement and the Official Statement;
(d) the Purchase Agreement;
(e) the Financing Agreement dated as of July 1, 2009 (the “Financing Agreement”) between the Authority and the Company;
(f) the Continuing Disclosure Agreement dated as of July 1, 2009 (the “Continuing Disclosure Agreement”) between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee for the Authority Bonds (the “Trustee”);
(g) the Official Statement relating to the Authority Bonds dated June 30, 2009 (the “Official Statement”);
(h) the Securities Certificate relating to the issue and sale of the First Mortgage Bonds, filed by the Company with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 19 of the Pennsylvania Public Utility Code, and a copy of the Order of the Public Utility Commission registering such Securities Certificate, certified by the Secretary of the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission;
(i) a Subsistence Certificate from the Secretary of the Commonwealth with respect to the Company;
(j) executed counterparts of the Original Mortgage and of the Supplemental Indenture and evidence satisfactory to us of the due recordation thereof in the Counties of Adams, Berks, Bradford, Bucks, Carbon, Chester, Columbia, Crawford, Cumberland, Delaware, Forest, Juniata, Lackawanna, Lawrence, Lehigh, Luzerne, Mercer, Monroe, Montgomery, Northampton, Northumberland, Pike, Schuylkill, Snyder, Susquehanna, Wayne and Wyoming, Pennsylvania;
(k) the documents delivered to the Mortgage Trustee in connection with the authentication of the First Mortgage Bond pursuant to the provisions of Sections 2(B) and 3 of Article IV of the Original Mortgage;
(l) the First Mortgage Bond delivered to the Trustee at the Closing held today;
(m) the certificates of the Company and other documents delivered to the Mortgage Trustee at the Closing;

 

 
(n) a certificate of the Company and various bringdown title searches of various title companies in the Counties of Adams, Berks, Bradford, Bucks, Carbon, Chester, Columbia, Crawford, Cumberland, Delaware, Forest, Juniata, Lackawanna, Lawrence, Lehigh, Luzerne, Mercer, Monroe, Montgomery, Northampton, Northumberland, Pike, Schuylkill, Snyder, Susquehanna, Wayne and Wyoming, Pennsylvania, each dated as of a recent date (collectively, “Title Searches”), as to matters relating to title to real estate and the lien of the Mortgage thereon, on which certificate and searches we are relying for the purposes of this opinion; and
(o) various certificates of officers of the Company relating to title to real property and the priority of any lien thereon.
In rendering this opinion, we have assumed that all signatures on documents and instruments examined by us are genuine (except signatures of the Company on the Purchase Agreement, the Supplemental Indenture, the Financing Agreement, the First Mortgage Bond and the Continuing Disclosure Agreement (collectively, the “Company Documents”) and the Official Statement), the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed, with your permission, that none of the signatories of the documents and instruments referred to above is an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of 66 Pa.C.S. §210l (1989).
As to questions of fact material to the opinions hereinafter expressed, we have relied solely and without investigation upon certificates of public officials, certificates of officers of the Company and the representations of the Company contained in the Company Documents (including the exhibits and schedules to such documents) and the certificates and other documents delivered pursuant thereto. To the extent that the opinions contained herein are given to our knowledge, such knowledge means the actual knowledge of those attorneys within our firm who have provided substantive representation to the Company in connection with this financing, without investigation and inquiry, and does not include matters of which such attorneys could be deemed to have constructive knowledge.
In rendering this opinion, we have also assumed that each of the Company Documents has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each party thereto (other than the Company) and that each of the Company Documents is binding and enforceable against each such party in accordance with its respective terms.
Further, as to matters relating to title to real estate and the lien of the Mortgage, we have relied exclusively upon various certificates of officers of the Company and the Title Searches and we have not made, nor undertaken to make, any investigation or inquiry with respect to title to real property or the priority of any lien thereon.
We are generally familiar with the Company’s operations as a public utility within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “Commonwealth”).
Based upon the foregoing and such other examination of fact and law as we have deemed necessary for purposes of this opinion, we are of the opinion that:

 

 
1. The Company was organized and subsists under the laws of the Commonwealth, with the corporate power to own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Official Statement.
2. The Company has the corporate power and authority to enter into and perform the Company Documents. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Company Documents have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action.
3. The Purchase Agreement, the Financing Agreement and the Continuing Disclosure Agreement constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms.
4. The First Mortgage Bond has been duly authorized, executed, authenticated, issued and delivered and each constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company entitled to the benefits provided by the Mortgage.
5. The First Mortgage Bond is not subject to the registration requirements of the 1933 Act.
6. The Mortgage constitutes a direct, valid and enforceable mortgage lien (except as enforceability of such lien may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights) upon all of the properties and assets of the Company (not heretofore released as provided for in the Mortgage) specifically or generally described or referred to in the Mortgage as being subject to the lien thereof, except for permitted liens under the Mortgage; (i) the Original Mortgage, either separately or as an exhibit to (a) the Thirty-Fifth Supplemental Indenture dated as of January 1, 2002, (b) the Thirty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 15, 2004 or (c) the Forty-first Supplemental Indenture dated as of January 1, 2007, and (ii) the Forty-fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 1, 2009, has been properly recorded in the Counties of Adams, Berks, Bradford, Bucks, Carbon, Chester, Columbia, Crawford, Cumberland, Delaware, Forest, Juniata, Lackawanna, Lawrence, Lehigh, Luzerne, Mercer, Monroe, Montgomery, Northampton, Northumberland, Pike, Schuylkill, Snyder, Susquehanna, Wayne and Wyoming in the Commonwealth and such recordations are the only recordations necessary in order to establish, preserve, protect and perfect the lien of the Mortgage on all real estate and fixed property of the Company (excluding easement and other similar nights) described in the Mortgage as subject to the lien thereof.
7. With such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company, the Company has good and marketable title to all of its real property currently held in fee simple; good and marketable title to all of its other interests in real property (other than to certain rights of way, easements, occupancy rights, riparian and flowage rights, licenses, leaseholds, and real property interests of a similar nature); and good and marketable title to all personal property owned by it; in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such as may be described in the Official Statement, the lien of the Mortgage, permitted liens under the Mortgage or such as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company; and any real property and buildings held under lease by the Company are held by it under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company.

 

 
8. The Company is not a holding company, a registered holding company or an affiliate of a registered holding company within the meaning of the Public Utility Company Holding Act of 1935, as amended.
9. The Mortgage and the First Mortgage Bond conform in all material respects as to legal matters to the descriptions thereof in the Official Statement.
Without having undertaken to determine independently the accuracy, completeness and fairness of the statements contained in the Official Statement, nothing has come to our attention in connection with our representation of the Company in respect of the issuance of the First Mortgage Bond which leads us to believe that the information with respect to the Company contained in the Official Statement (including Appendix A and the information incorporated therein by reference) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact which is required to be stated therein or which is necessary to make such information and descriptions, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect.
The foregoing opinions are subject to the following qualifications:
(i) The opinions expressed in paragraphs 3 and 4 are subject to the qualifications that the enforceability of the First Mortgage Bond are subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other similar laws of general application relating to or affecting creditors’ rights, (ii) certain provisions of Pennsylvania law affecting the availability of certain remedies, and (iii) the further qualification that the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor maybe brought.
(ii) Our opinions are subject to limitations imposed by general principles of equity, including principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in proceedings at law or in equity).
(iii) We express no opinion as to the enforceability with respect to any provisions purporting to waive the effect of applicable laws and remedies and any provisions releasing any party from, or requiring indemnification for, liability for gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct.
(iv) Any requirements in any of the documents specifying that provisions of a document may only be waived in writing may not be enforced to the extent that an oral agreement or an implied agreement by trade practice or course of conduct has been created modifying any provision of such document.

 

 
(v) We express no opinion as to the applicability to the transactions contemplated by the Company Documents of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable state law relating to fraudulent transfers and obligations.
(vi) Other applicable local, state and federal laws, regulations and ordinances, court decisions and constitutional requirements may limit or render unenforceable certain of the rights or remedies contained in the Company Documents, but in our opinion, none of the same would materially impair the practical realization of the benefits intended to be provided by the Company pursuant to the Company Documents.
(vii) Our opinion is limited in all respects to the laws of the Commonwealth in effect as of the date hereof and we express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction.
(viii) This opinion is limited to the matters set forth herein, no opinion may be inferred or implied beyond the matters expressly stated herein, and our statements contained in the opinion portion of this letter must be read in conjunction with the assumptions, limitations, exceptions and qualifications set forth in this letter.
(ix) The opinions herein are expressed as of the date hereof only and not as of some future date. We undertake no responsibility to advise you of any change in law or new laws, regulations or judicial decisions in the future. Nor do we assume any obligation to update or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances which may hereafter come to our attention. References to “laws,” “regulations” and “judicial decisions” herein shall include only officially published laws and regulations of the Commonwealth.
This opinion is solely for the benefit of each of you and the benefit of any subsequent holder of the First Mortgage Bond or the Authority Bonds and may not be relied upon by any other person or for any other purpose.
Very truly yours,

          Re:	 	$58,000,000 principal amount of Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority Water Facilities Revenue Bonds (Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. Project) Series A of 2009	
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I am Senior Vice President-Law and Administration for Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc. (the “Company”).
Pursuant to Section 11(c)(iv) of the Bond Purchase Agreement dated June 30, 2009 (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Authority, the Underwriter and the Company (a/k/a Pennsylvania Suburban Water Company, as successor by merger to Philadelphia Suburban Water Company) relating to the Authority Bonds, I have been asked to render an opinion to you regarding certain matters involving the Company. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the definitions ascribed to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.
In rendering this opinion, I have assumed the following:
(i) the genuineness of all signatures (other than the signatures of the Company on the Forty-fourth Supplemental Mortgage, as hereinafter defined);
(ii) the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to me as originals;
(iii) the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to me as copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies;
(iv) the entity executing the Mortgage as trustee is duly organized and validly existing, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, is properly qualified to do business in all jurisdictions in which the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary and has all necessary legal and corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Mortgage;

 

 
(v) the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Mortgage by or on behalf of the party thereto other than the Company;
(vi) the enforceability against each party thereto (other than the Company) of the Mortgage in accordance with its respective terms; and
(vii) that the execution, delivery and performance of the Mortgage by the entity other than the Company which is party thereto does not and will not conflict with, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority, or any agreement, indenture or other instrument, to which any such party is a party or by which it or its properties are bound, and that all necessary approvals, consents, permits, registrations, filings or other notices to or grants of authority from any federal or local governmental body necessary for the execution, delivery and performance of the Mortgage by each party thereto (other than the Company) have been duly received or made, with all appeal periods expired and no appeals taken.
I am making each of the foregoing assumptions with your permission and with the disclaimer that we make no representation as to the accuracy of such assumptions, although I have no knowledge that any such assumption is untrue.
In my opinion:
1. With such exceptions as are not material and do not materially interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company: (a) the Company has all licenses, franchises, permits, authorizations, rights, approvals, consents and order of all governmental authorities or agencies necessary for the ownership or lease of the properties owned or leased by it and for the operation of the business carried on by it as described in the Official Statement, and ail water rights, riparian rights, easements, rights of way and other similar interests and rights described or referred to in the Mortgage necessary for the operation of the business carried on by it as described in the Official Statement; (b) except as otherwise set forth in the Official Statement, all such licenses, franchises, permits, orders, authorizations, rights, approvals and consents are in full force and effect; (c) to the best of my knowledge, except as otherwise set forth in the Official Statement, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending or, to my knowledge, threatened that would result in a material modification, suspension or revocation thereof; and (d) the Company has the legal power to exercise the rights of eminent domain for the purposes of conducting its water utility operations.
2. The issue and sale of the Bonds; the issue and delivery of the First Mortgage Bond and the compliance by the Company with all of the applicable provisions of the First Mortgage Bond and the Mortgage; and the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Forty-fourth Supplemental Mortgage, the Financing Agreement, the Purchase Agreement and the Continuing Disclosure Agreement will not materially conflict with or result in a material breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a material default under, or result in the

 

 
creation or imposition of any material lien, charge or encumbrance (other than the lien of the Mortgage) upon any of the property or assets of the Company pursuant to the terms of, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company is subject, nor will such action result in a violation of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Bylaws of the Company or any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its property. No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court or any such regulatory authority or other governmental body not already obtained is required for the issue and delivery of the First Mortgage Bond, the execution, delivery and performance of the Purchase Agreement, the Financing Agreement, the Forty-fourth Supplemental Mortgage, the First Mortgage Bond, and the Continuing Disclosure Agreement, or the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or the Mortgage.
3. There are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which the Company is a party or of which any property of the Company is the subject, other than as set forth in the Official Statement and other than litigation incident to the kind of business conducted by the Company, wherein an unfavorable ruling, decision or finding is likely that would have a material adverse effect on the financial position, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company.
4. Each of the Indenture of Mortgage dated as of January 1, 1941 (the “Original Mortgage”), between the Company and The Philadelphia Company for Insurance on Lives and Exacting Annuities (now The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as successor in interest), as trustee (the “Trustee”) and the forty-four indentures supplemental thereto, including the Forty-fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 1, 2009 between the Company and the Trustee (the Original Mortgage as so supplemented and amended, the “Mortgage”) was duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the Mortgage constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
The foregoing opinions are subject to the following qualifications:
(i) The enforceability of the Mortgage, including, without limitation, any non judicial and self-help remedies and waivers contained therein, may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and are subject to limitations imposed by general principles of equity, including principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in proceedings at law or in equity), public policy and applicable law which may limit the availability of the remedies provided for therein,

 

 
(ii) I express no opinion as to the adequacy of any notice with respect to the disposition of any collateral. I also express no opinion as to the effectiveness or enforceability of provisions relating to waivers of notice or waivers of other rights, severability, prepayment fees or penalties, choice of law, or any provisions which release or limit the Company’s liability or relate to cumulative remedies or, to the extent they purport to or would have the effect of compensating the Company in amounts in excess of any actual loss suffered by the Company, provisions relating to the payment of a default rate of interest.
(iii) I express no opinion as to enforceability with respect to any provisions in the Mortgage executed by the Company purporting to waive the effect of applicable laws and remedies and any provisions releasing any party from, or requiring indemnification for, liability for gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct.
(iv) Requirements in the Mortgage specifying that provisions of the Mortgage may only be waived in writing may not be enforced to the extent that an oral agreement or an implied agreement by trade practice or course of conduct has been created modifying any provision of such Mortgage.
(v) My opinion is limited in all respects to laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in effect as of the date hereof and we express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction.
(vi) This opinion is limited to the matters set forth herein, no opinion may be inferred or implied beyond the matters expressly stated herein, and our statements contained in the opinion portion of this letter must be read in conjunction with the assumptions, limitations, exceptions and qualifications set forth in this letter.
(vii) The opinions herein are expressed as of the date hereof only and not as of some future date. I undertake no responsibility to advise you of any change in law or new laws, regulations or judicial decisions in the future nor do I assume any obligation to update or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances which may hereafter come to our attention. References to “laws,” “regulations” and “judicial decisions” herein shall include only officially published laws and regulations of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
This opinion is solely for your benefit and may not be relied upon by any other person or for any other purpose.
Very truly yours,
