information about us, the securitized utility tariff bonds and Atmos Energy Corporation as depositor, sponsor and initial servicer. This prospectus describes the terms of the securitized utility tariff bonds offered hereby. You should carefully
review this prospectus, any free writing prospectus the issuing entity files with the SEC, and the information, if any, contained in the documents referenced in this prospectus under the heading &#147;WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">References in this prospectus to the terms &#147;we,&#148; &#147;us,&#148; &#147;our&#148; or &#147;the issuing entity&#148; mean Atmos Energy
Kansas Securitization I, LLC. References to &#147;Atmos Energy,&#148; &#147;the sponsor,&#148; &#147;the initial servicer,&#148; &#147;the depositor&#148; or &#147;the seller&#148; mean Atmos Energy Corporation. References to &#147;the securitized
utility tariff bonds&#148; or &#147;the bonds&#148; mean our Series <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">2023-A</FONT> Senior Secured Securitized Utility Tariff Bonds offered pursuant to this prospectus. References to &#147;the servicer&#148; refer to
Atmos Energy and any successor servicer under the servicing agreement referred to in this prospectus. References to the &#147;Securitization Act&#148; mean the Utility Financing and Securitization Act, established by the Kansas Legislature, which
provides for the securitization of &#147;qualified extraordinary costs&#148; (such as fuel costs incurred during extreme weather events) by issuing &#147;securitized utility tariff bonds.&#148; The Securitization Act is codified at K.S.A.

find a glossary of some of the other defined terms we use in this prospectus on page 144 of this prospectus. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have included

with any different information. Neither we nor any underwriter, agent, dealer, salesperson, the Kansas commission or Atmos Energy take any responsibility for, nor provide any assurance as to the reliability of, any different information that others
may give you, or to make any representation other than those contained in this prospectus or in any free writing prospectus that we prepare. We are not offering to sell the securitized utility tariff bonds in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale
is not permitted. The information in this prospectus is current only as of the date of this prospectus. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We expect to deliver the
securitized utility tariff bonds against payment for the securitized utility tariff bonds on or about the date specified in the last paragraph of the cover page of this prospectus, which will be
the&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; business day following the date of pricing of the securitized utility tariff bonds. Since trades in the secondary market generally settle in
two business days, purchasers who wish to trade securitized utility tariff bonds on the date of pricing or the succeeding &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; business days will be
required, by virtue of the fact that the securitized utility tariff bonds initially will settle in T + &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;, to specify alternative settlement arrangements
to prevent a failed settlement. </P>

disconnects from Atmos Energy&#146;s gas distribution system and ceases to purchase natural gas by switching to an alternative source of energy that meets all of its energy needs, such customer would no longer be a retail customer and would not be

Atmos Energy or any successor assignee might be required to indemnify us if legal action based on the law in effect at the time of the issuance of the securitized utility tariff bonds invalidates the securitized utility tariff property, such
indemnification obligations do not apply for any changes in law after the date the securitized utility tariff bonds are issued, whether such changes in law are effected by means of any legislative enactment, any constitutional amendment or any final

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The securitized utility tariff property is the creation of the Securitization Act and the financing order that has been issued by the Kansas
commission to Atmos Energy pursuant to the Securitization Act. The Securitization Act was enacted in April 2021. There is uncertainty associated with investing in bonds payable from an asset that depends for its existence on legislation because
there is limited judicial or regulatory experience implementing and interpreting the legislation. The Securitization Act or any financing order or any provisions thereof might be directly contested in courts or otherwise become the subject of
litigation. Because the securitized utility tariff property is a creation of the Securitization Act and the financing order, any judicial determination affecting the validity of or interpreting the Securitization Act or the financing order, the
securitized utility tariff property or our ability to make payments on the securitized utility tariff bonds might have an adverse effect on the value of the securitized utility tariff bonds or cause a delay in the recovery of your investment. As of
the date of this prospectus, no such litigation has arisen; however, we cannot assure you that a lawsuit challenging the validity of the Securitization Act or any financing order will not be filed in the future or that, if filed, such lawsuit will
not be successful. If an invalidation of any relevant underlying legislative provision or any financing order provision were to result from such litigation, you might lose some or all of your investment or might experience delays in recovering your
investment. Please read &#147;THE SECURITIZATION ACT&#151;Constitutional Matters&#148; in this prospectus. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Other states have passed laws
with financing provisions similar to some provisions of the Securitization Act, and some of these laws have been challenged by judicial actions or utility commission proceedings. To date, none of these challenges has succeeded, but future judicial
challenges might be made. An unfavorable decision regarding another state&#146;s law would not automatically invalidate the Securitization Act or the financing order, but it might provoke a challenge to the Securitization Act or the financing order,
establish a legal precedent for a successful challenge to the Securitization Act or the financing order or heighten awareness of the political and other risks of the securitized utility tariff bonds, and in that way may limit the liquidity and value
of the securitized utility tariff bonds. Therefore, legal activity in other states may indirectly affect the value of your investment in the securitized utility tariff bonds. </P>

take or permit certain actions that would impair the value of the securitized utility tariff property or the securitized utility tariff charges, the Kansas legislature might attempt to repeal or amend the Securitization Act in a manner that limits
or alters the securitized utility tariff property so as to reduce its value. For a description of the State&#146;s pledge, please read &#147;THE SECURITIZATION ACT&#151;Atmos Energy May Securitize Qualified Extraordinary Costs and Related Upfront

ensue, might adversely affect the price and liquidity, the dates of payment of interest and principal and the weighted average lives of the securitized utility tariff bonds. Moreover, the outcome of any litigation cannot be predicted. Accordingly,
you might incur a loss on or delay in recovery of your investment in the securitized utility tariff bonds. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Except as described in

collect securitized utility tariff charges were considered a &#147;taking&#148; under the United States or Kansas Constitutions, the State of Kansas might be obligated to pay compensation in an amount equal to the estimated value of the securitized
utility tariff property at the time of the taking. However, even in that event, there is no assurance that any amount provided as compensation would be sufficient for you to recover fully your investment in the securitized utility tariff bonds or to
offset interest lost pending such recovery. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Nothing in the State&#146;s or Kansas commission&#146;s pledge precludes any limitation or
alteration of the Securitization Act or the financing order if full compensation is made by law for the full protection of the securitized utility tariff charges collected pursuant to the financing order and of the securitized utility tariff
bondholders. It is unclear what &#147;full compensation&#148; and &#147;full protection&#148; would be afforded to the securitized utility tariff bondholders by the State of Kansas or the Kansas commission if such limitation or alteration were
attempted. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Unlike the citizens of some other states, the citizens of the State of Kansas currently do not have the constitutional right
to adopt or revise state laws by initiative or referendum. Thus, absent an amendment to the Kansas Constitution, the Securitization Act cannot be amended or repealed by direct action of the electorate of the State of Kansas. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The enforcement of any rights against the State of Kansas or the Kansas commission under their respective pledges may be subject to the
exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases and to the limitations on legal remedies against state and local governmental entities in Kansas. These limitations might include, for example, the necessity to exhaust administrative remedies
prior to bringing suit in a court, or limitations on type and locations of courts in which the State of Kansas or the Kansas commission may be sued, or limitations on awards or collection of damages. </P>

successor servicer. Under the financing order, the annual servicing fee payable to a successor servicer is capped and the payment of compensation in excess of the cap is dependent upon Kansas commission approval. Also, any successor servicer might
have less experience and ability than Atmos Energy and might experience difficulties in collecting securitized utility tariff charges and determining appropriate adjustments to the securitized utility tariff charges and billing and/or payment
arrangements may change, resulting in delays or disruptions in collections. A successor servicer might charge fees that, while permitted under the financing order, are substantially higher than the fees paid to Atmos Energy as the initial servicer.
Although a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustment may be required to allow for the increase in fees, there could be a gap between the incurrence of those fees and the implementation of the
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustment to adjust for the increase that might adversely affect distributions from the collection account. In the event of the commencement of a case by or against the servicer under the Bankruptcy
Code or similar laws, we and the trustee might be prevented from effecting a transfer of servicing due to operation of the Bankruptcy Code. Any of these factors and others might delay the timing of payments and may reduce the value of your

other energy sources, increase Atmos Energy&#146;s costs and the prices it charges to retail customers, reduce the demand for natural gas, and impact the competitive position of natural gas and the ability to serve new or existing retail customers.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Any or all of these items might prompt Atmos Energy&#146;s retail customers to switch to alternative sources to meet their energy
requirements and disconnect from Atmos Energy&#146;s gas distribution system. This could reduce Atmos Energy&#146;s retail customer count, resulting in higher securitized utility tariff charges for Atmos Energy&#146;s remaining retail customers.
This, in turn, could adversely impact the billing and collection of securitized utility tariff charges, thereby increasing the risk of nonpayment by retail customers. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The retail customers who pay the securitized utility tariff charges are divided into customer classes. Securitized utility tariff charges will
be allocated among retail customer classes and assessed in accordance with the retail customer billing mechanism specified in the financing order. The <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustment methodology approved in the financing
order is cross collateralized across retail customer classes and requires that any delinquencies or under-collections in one retail customer class will be taken into account in the application of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT>
mechanism to adjust the securitized utility tariff charges for all retail customers, not just the class of retail customers from which the delinquency or under-collection arose. Nonetheless, if enough retail customers in a class fail to pay
securitized utility tariff charges or cease to be retail customers, the servicer might have to substantially increase the securitized utility tariff charges for the remaining retail customers in that retail customer class and for other retail
customer classes as well. These increases could lead to further unanticipated failures by the remaining retail customers to pay securitized utility tariff charges, thereby increasing the risk of a shortfall in funds to pay interest and principal on
the securitized utility tariff bonds. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Foreclosure of the trustee&#146;s lien on the securitized utility tariff property might not
be practical, and acceleration of the securitized utility tariff bonds before maturity might have little practical effect. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under
the Securitization Act and the Indenture, the trustee or the securitized utility tariff bondholders have the right to foreclose or otherwise enforce the lien on the securitized utility tariff property securing the securitized utility tariff bonds.
However, in the event of foreclosure, there is likely to be a limited market, if any, for the securitized utility tariff property. Therefore, foreclosure might not be a realistic or practical remedy. Moreover, although principal of the securitized
utility tariff bonds will be due and payable upon acceleration of the securitized utility tariff bonds before maturity, securitized utility tariff charges likely would not be accelerated and the nature of our business will result in the principal of
the securitized utility tariff bonds being paid as funds become available. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I><U>Risks associated with potential bankruptcy proceedings of the seller

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The servicer will remit collected securitized utility tariff charges (the &#147;daily remittance&#148;) to the trustee for deposit to the
general subaccount of the collection account as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than two servicer business days following such date. The servicer will not segregate the securitized utility tariff charges from the other funds it
collects from customers or its general funds. The securitized utility tariff charges will be segregated only when the servicer pays them to the trustee. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Despite this requirement, the servicer might fail to remit the full amount of the securitized utility tariff charges to the trustee or might
fail to do so on a timely basis. This failure, whether voluntary or involuntary, might materially reduce the amount of securitized utility tariff charge collections available to make payments on the securitized utility tariff bonds. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Securitization Act provides that the priority of a security interest perfected in securitized utility tariff property is not impaired by
the commingling of the funds arising from securitized utility tariff charges with any other funds of the servicer. In a bankruptcy of the servicer, however, a bankruptcy court might rule that federal bankruptcy law does not recognize our right to
collections of the securitized utility tariff charges that are commingled with other funds of the servicer as of the date of bankruptcy. If so, the collections of the securitized utility tariff charges held by the servicer as of the date of
bankruptcy would not be available to pay amounts owed on the securitized utility tariff bonds. In this case, we would have only a general unsecured claim against the servicer for those amounts. This decision could cause material delays in payments
of principal or interest, or losses, on the securitized utility tariff bonds and could materially reduce the value of your investment in the securitized utility tariff bonds. Please read &#147;HOW A BANKRUPTCY MAY AFFECT YOUR INVESTMENT&#148; in

<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The sale of the securitized utility tariff property might be construed as a financing and not a sale in a case of Atmos Energy&#146;s
bankruptcy which might delay or limit payments on the securitized utility tariff bonds. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Securitization Act provides that the
characterization of a transfer of securitized utility tariff property as a sale or other absolute transfer will not be affected or impaired by treatment of the transfer as a financing for federal or state tax purposes or financial reporting
purposes. We and Atmos Energy will treat the transaction as a sale under applicable law, although for financial reporting and federal and state tax purposes the transaction is intended to be treated as a financing. In the event of a bankruptcy of
Atmos Energy, a party in interest in the bankruptcy might assert that the sale of the securitized utility tariff property to us was a financing transaction and not a &#147;sale or other absolute transfer&#148; and that the treatment of the
transaction for financial reporting and tax purposes as a financing and not a sale lends weight to that position. If a court were to characterize the transaction as a financing, we expect that we would, on behalf of ourselves and the trustee, be
treated as a secured creditor of Atmos Energy in the bankruptcy proceedings, although a court might determine that we only have an unsecured claim against Atmos Energy. See &#147;&#151;The servicer will commingle the securitized utility tariff
charges with other revenues it collects, which might obstruct access to the securitized utility tariff charges in case of the servicer&#146;s bankruptcy and reduce the value of your investment in the securitized utility tariff bonds&#148; above.
Even if we had a security interest in the securitized utility tariff property, we might not have access to the related securitized utility tariff charge collections during the bankruptcy and would be subject to the risks of a secured creditor in a
bankruptcy case, including the possible bankruptcy risks described in the immediately preceding risk factor. As a result, repayment of the securitized utility tariff bonds might be significantly delayed and a plan of reorganization in the bankruptcy
might permanently modify the amount and timing of payments to us of the securitized utility tariff charge collections and therefore the amount and timing of funds available to us to pay securitized utility tariff bondholders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>If the servicer enters bankruptcy proceedings, the remittance of certain securitized utility tariff charges by the servicer prior to the
date of bankruptcy might constitute preferences, which means these funds might be unavailable to pay amounts owed on the securitized utility tariff bonds. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the event of a bankruptcy of the servicer, a party in interest might take the position that the remittance of funds prior to bankruptcy of

constitutes a preference, any such remittance within 90 days of the filing of the bankruptcy petition could be avoidable, and the funds could be required to be returned to the bankruptcy estate of the servicer. To the extent that securitized utility
tariff charges have been commingled with the general funds of the servicer, the risk that a court would hold that a remittance of funds was a preference would increase. Also, if we are considered to be an &#147;insider&#148; of the servicer, any
such remittance made within one year of the filing of the bankruptcy petition could be avoidable as well if the court were to hold that such remittance constitutes a preference. In either case, we or the trustee would merely be an unsecured creditor
of the servicer. If any funds were required to be returned to the bankruptcy estate of the servicer, we would expect that the amount of any future securitized utility tariff charges would be increased through the
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> mechanism to recover such amount, though this would not eliminate the risk of payment delays or losses on your investment in the securitized utility tariff bonds. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to the rules of the SEC, Atmos Energy, as sponsor, has performed, as described below, a review of the securitized utility tariff
property underlying the securitized utility tariff bonds. As required by these rules, the review was designed and effected to provide reasonable assurance that disclosure regarding the securitized utility tariff property is accurate in all material
respects. Atmos Energy did not engage a third party in conducting its review. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The securitized utility tariff bonds will be secured under
the Indenture by the Indenture&#146;s trust estate. The principal asset of the Indenture&#146;s trust estate is the securitized utility tariff property. The securitized utility tariff property is a present contract right authorized and created
pursuant to the securitization provisions of the Securitization Act and an irrevocable financing order. The securitized utility tariff property includes the irrevocable right to impose, bill, charge, collect and receive nonbypassable securitized
utility tariff charges in amounts sufficient to timely pay scheduled principal and interest and ongoing financing costs in connection with the securitized utility tariff bonds. The securitized utility tariff charges are nonbypassable charges that
will be paid by all existing and future retail customers receiving natural gas service from Atmos Energy or its successors or assignees under the rate schedules or special contracts approved by the Kansas commission, even if a retail customer elects
to purchase natural gas from an alternative natural gas supplier following a fundamental change in regulation of public utilities in Kansas; provided, however, if a customer disconnects from Atmos Energy&#146;s gas distribution system and ceases to
purchase natural gas by switching to an alternative source of energy that meets all of its energy needs, such customer would no longer be a retail customer and would not be subject to paying securitized utility tariff charges. During the 12 months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2022, approximately 68% of Atmos Energy&#146;s total gas deliveries were to residential retail customers and approximately 32% were to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-residential</FONT> retail customers. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The securitized utility tariff property is not a static pool of receivables or assets. Securitized utility tariff charges authorized in the
financing order are irrevocable and not subject to reduction, impairment, or adjustment by further action of the Kansas commission except that securitized utility tariff charges are subject to semi-annual and other interim <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustments to correct any over-collections or under-collections of securitized utility tariff charges during the previous six months and to ensure the expected recovery of amounts sufficient to timely
provide all payments of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitized utility tariff bonds. All revenues and collections resulting from securitized utility tariff charges provided for in the financing order
are part of the securitized utility tariff property. The securitized utility tariff charges will be calculated on a fixed monthly charge per retail customer. The securitized utility tariff property is described in more detail under &#147;DESCRIPTION
OF THE SECURITIZED UTILITY TARIFF PROPERTY&#148; in this prospectus. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the financing order, the Kansas commission, among other things:

utility tariff property and many elements of the securitized utility tariff bond securitization are set forth and constrained by the securitization provisions of the Securitization Act, Atmos
Energy, as sponsor, does not select the assets to be securitized in ways common to many securitizations. Moreover, the securitized utility tariff bonds do not contain origination or underwriting elements similar to typical mortgage or other loan
transactions involved in other forms of asset-backed securities. The securitization provisions of the Securitization Act and the Kansas commission require the imposition on, and collection of securitized utility tariff charges from, existing and
future retail customers receiving natural gas service from Atmos Energy or it successors or assignees under Kansas commission-approved rate schedules or under special contracts, even if a retail customer elects to purchase natural gas from an
alternative natural gas supplier following a fundamental change in regulation of public utilities in Kansas subject to certain exceptions discussed elsewhere in this prospectus. Since the securitized utility tariff charges are assessed against all
retail customers and the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustment mechanism adjusts for the impact of retail customer defaults, the collectability of the securitized utility tariff charges is not ultimately dependent upon the
credit quality of particular Atmos Energy retail customers, as would be the case in the absence of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustment mechanism. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The review by Atmos Energy of the securitized utility tariff property underlying the securitized utility tariff bonds has involved a number of
discrete steps and elements as described in more detail below. First, Atmos Energy has analyzed and applied the securitization provisions of the Securitization Act&#146;s requirements for securitization of qualified extraordinary costs in seeking
approval of the Kansas commission for the issuance of the financing order and in its application for a financing order with respect to the characteristics of the securitized utility tariff property to be created pursuant to the financing order.
Atmos Energy worked with its counsel in preparing the application for a financing order and with the Kansas commission on the terms of the financing order. Moreover, Atmos Energy worked with its counsel, its structuring agent and counsel to the
underwriter in preparing the legal agreements that provide for the terms of the securitized utility tariff bonds and the security for the securitized utility tariff bonds. Atmos Energy has analyzed economic issues and practical issues for the
scheduled payment of the securitized utility tariff bonds in terms of impacts of economic factors, potentials for disruptions due to weather or catastrophic events and its own forecasts for retail customer growth as well as the historic accuracy of
its prior forecasts. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In light of the unique nature of the securitized utility tariff property, Atmos Energy has taken (or prior to the
offering of the securitized utility tariff bonds, will take) the following actions in connection with its review of the securitized utility tariff property and the preparation of the disclosure for inclusion in this prospectus describing the

April 2021, the Kansas Legislature established the Securitization Act (a Kansas senate substitute for House Bill 2072 (Volume 40 - Issue 16 - April 22, 2021), as codified at K.S.A. &#167;&#167; <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">66-1,240</FONT> - <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">66-1,253),</FONT> providing for a financing mechanism through which certain utilities can use securitization financing to recover qualified extraordinary costs (as defined in the Securitization Act) resulting from Winter
Storm Uri, by issuing securitized utility tariff bonds. Securitized utility tariff bonds must be approved in a financing order issued by the Kansas commission. A Kansas utility subject to the jurisdiction of the Kansas commission must apply to the
Kansas commission in order to obtain a financing order under the Securitization Act to authorize the issuance of securitized utility tariff bonds. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In February 2021, Kansas experienced <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">sub-zero</FONT> temperatures brought by Winter Storm Uri, which led to a
significant increase in demand for electricity and natural gas. On February&nbsp;14, 2021, a State of Disaster Emergency was issued by Kansas Governor Kelly due to expected prolonged low temperatures and the strain on natural gas and utility
providers; at the time, wholesale natural gas prices were reflecting increases from 10 to 100 times their normal rates. On February&nbsp;15, 2021, the Kansas commission issued an Emergency Order in Docket No. <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">21-GIMX-303-MIS</FONT></FONT></FONT> (Docket <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">21-303),</FONT> directing jurisdictional natural gas utilities to coordinate efforts and take all reasonably
feasible, lawful, and appropriate actions to ensure adequate transportation of natural gas to interconnected, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-jurisdictional</FONT> Kansas utilities. Jurisdictional natural gas utilities were ordered to do
everything necessary to ensure that natural gas service continued to be provided to their customers in Kansas. The Kansas commission authorized every jurisdictional natural gas distribution utility to defer extraordinary costs incurred during the
Winter Event to a regulatory asset account. On May&nbsp;25, 2022, Atmos Energy applied for a financing order under the Securitization Act, which was issued by the Kansas commission on October&nbsp;25<B>,</B> 2022. </P>

legislation regarding similar matters, such as legislation reducing or eliminating taxes, public charges or other sources of revenues servicing other types of bonds issued by public
instrumentalities or private issuers, or otherwise substantially impairing or eliminating the security for bonds or other indebtedness. Based upon this case law, Sidley Austin LLP, as counsel to Atmos Energy and us, expects to deliver an opinion,
prior to the closing of the offering of the securitized utility tariff bonds described in this prospectus, to the effect that, under federal law principles, the State pledge described above unambiguously indicates the State&#146;s intent to be bound
with the securitized utility tariff bondholders and, subject to all of the qualifications, limitations and assumptions set forth in its opinion, supports the conclusion that the State pledge constitutes a binding contractual relationship between the
State and the securitized utility tariff bondholders for purposes of the Federal Contract Clause and, with regard to Kansas, Husch Blackwell LLP, as Kansas counsel to Atmos Energy and us, expects to deliver an opinion to the effect that when
confronted with the question of whether state legislation impairs contractual obligations, it appears the Kansas Supreme Court looks exclusively to Federal Contracts Clause analysis, and therefore Kansas Courts would more likely than not look to the
Federal Contract Clause in these circumstances. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Subject to all of the qualifications, limitations and assumptions set forth in each
respective opinion, including that any impairment of the contract be &#147;substantial,&#148; the opinion of Sidley Austin LLP is expected to state that a reviewing court of competent jurisdiction would hold that the State of Kansas could not
constitutionally repeal or amend the Securitization Act or take any other action contravening the State pledge and creating an impairment (without, as the Securitization Act requires, providing full compensation by law for the full protection of the
securitized utility tariff charges to be collected pursuant to the financing order and full protection of the securitized utility tariff bondholders), unless such court would determine that such impairment is a necessary and reasonably tailored
exercise of the State of Kansas&#146; sovereign powers to serve a significant and legitimate public purpose justifying such action. </P>

Contract Clause, and (ii)&nbsp;provides a basis upon which the securitized utility tariff bondholders could challenge successfully any action by the Kansas commission related to the exercise of a legislatively granted power, including the rescission
or amendment of the financing order, if that exercise created an impairment, on the same basis as other actions of the State that create an impairment as described above.</P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, any action of the Kansas legislature adversely affecting the securitized utility tariff property or the ability to collect

aware of any Kansas, court cases addressing the applicability of the Takings Clause of the United States or Kansas Constitution respectively in a situation analogous to that which would be involved in an amendment or repeal of the Securitization
Act. It is possible that a court would decline even to apply a Takings Clause analysis to a claim based on an amendment or repeal of the Securitization Act, since, for example, a court might determine that a Contract Clause analysis rather than a
Takings Clause analysis should be applied. Assuming a Takings Clause analysis were applied under the United States Constitution or the Kansas Constitution, Sidley Austin LLP and Husch Blackwell LLP respectively expect to render an opinion, prior to
the closing of the offering of the securitized utility tariff bonds described in this prospectus, to the effect that, under the existing case law of the respective courts each opinion is covering, a reviewing court of competent jurisdiction would
hold (or with respect to the opinion of Husch Blackwell LLP, more likely than not, would hold), subject to all of the qualifications, limitations and assumptions set forth in each respective opinion, if it concludes that the securitized utility
tariff property is protected by the Takings Clause of the United States Constitution (or the Takings Clause of the Kansas Constitution with respect to the opinion of Husch Blackwell LLP), that the State would be required to pay just compensation to
the securitized utility tariff bondholders, as determined by such court, if the Kansas legislature repealed or amended the Securitization Act or took any other action contravening the State pledge, if the court determines doing so constituted a
permanent appropriation of a substantial property interest of the securitized utility tariff bondholders in the securitized utility tariff property or denied all economically productive use of the securitized utility tariff property, destroyed the

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Background.</I> In <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">mid-February</FONT> 2021, Kansas experienced
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">sub-zero</FONT> temperatures brought by Winter Storm Uri, which led to a significant increase in demand for electricity and natural gas. On February&nbsp;14, 2021, a State of Disaster Emergency was issued by Kansas
Governor Kelly due to expected prolonged low temperatures and the strain on natural gas and utility providers; at the time, wholesale natural gas prices were reflecting increases from 10 to 100 times their normal rates. On February&nbsp;15, 2021,
pursuant to K.S.A. &#167; <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">77-536(a),</FONT> the Kansas commission issued an Emergency Order in Docket No.
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">21-GIMX-303-MIS</FONT></FONT></FONT> (Docket <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">21-303),</FONT> directing jurisdictional natural gas utilities to take
all reasonably feasible, lawful, and appropriate actions to ensure adequate transportation of natural gas to interconnected, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-jurisdictional</FONT> Kansas utilities. Jurisdictional natural gas utilities were
ordered to do everything necessary to ensure that natural gas service continued to be provided to their customers in Kansas. The Kansas commission authorized every jurisdictional natural gas distribution utility to defer extraordinary costs incurred
during the winter event to a regulatory asset account. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In April 2021, the Kansas Legislature established the Utility Financing and
Securitization Act (referred to in this prospectus as the Securitization Act), providing for a financing mechanism through which certain utilities can use securitization financing to recover &#147;qualified extraordinary costs&#148; (as defined in
the Securitization Act) resulting from Winter Storm Uri, by issuing securitized utility tariff bonds. Securitized utility tariff bonds must be approved in a financing order issued by the Kansas commission. This provision of Kansas law, the
Securitization Act&#151;a Kansas senate substitute for House Bill 2072 (Volume 40 - Issue 16 - April 22, 2021)&#151;is codified at K.S.A. &#167;&#167; <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">66-1,240</FONT> -
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">66-1,253.</FONT> A Kansas utility subject to the jurisdiction of the Kansas commission must apply to the Kansas commission in order for a financing order under the Securitization Act to authorize the issuance of
securitized utility tariff bonds. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On May&nbsp;25, 2022, Atmos Energy applied for a financing order under the Securitization Act. Under
the Securitization Act and the financing order, Atmos Energy retail customers will pay securitized utility tariff charges, which are nonbypassable charges included in their monthly charges. Securitized utility tariff charges will fund payments of
principal and interest on the securitized utility tariff bonds, together with related financing costs. Securitized utility tariff charges will be collected by Atmos Energy, as initial servicer, or its successor, as provided for in the financing
order. Securitized utility tariff charges are required to be adjusted at least semi-annually, and more frequently as necessary, to ensure the projected recovery of amounts sufficient to provide timely payment of the scheduled principal, interest and
other required amounts in connection with the securitized utility tariff bonds during the preceding <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">six-month</FONT> period. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On October&nbsp;25, 2022, the Kansas commission issued its final order determining that Atmos Energy is entitled, pursuant to the
Securitization Act, to finance, through the issuance of securitized utility tariff bonds in one or more tranches with an estimated aggregate principal amount equal to approximately $92.7&nbsp;million (the qualified extraordinary costs less related
financing costs and interest expense). The financing order also: (1)&nbsp;authorizes the issuance of securitized utility tariff bonds in an aggregate amount not to exceed the qualified extraordinary costs and financing costs (2)&nbsp;approves the
creation of the securitized utility tariff property consisting of the right to impose and collect securitized utility tariff charges in an amount to be calculated as provided in the financing order; (3)&nbsp;approves the form of tariff, as provided
in the financing order, to implement securitized utility tariff charges; (4)&nbsp;approves the securitization of the securitized utility tariff charges associated with the qualified extraordinary costs and financing costs, including the upfront
financing costs and ongoing financing costs estimates (subject to review of the Kansas commission&#146;s designated representative); and (5)&nbsp;approves the review of the structure of the proposed securitization financing through a <FONT

financing order irrevocable, binding and nonbypassable charges, take or permit any action that impairs or would impair the value of the securitized utility tariff property, or, except for adjustments discussed in

incurred and any contracts to be performed in connection with the related securitized utility tariff bonds have been paid and performed in full. However, nothing will preclude limitation or alteration if full compensation is made by law for the full
protection of the securitized utility tariff charges collected pursuant to the financing order and the full protection of the bondholders and any assignee or financing party. Please read &#147;RISK FACTORS&#151;<I>Risks associated with potential

financing order provides that Atmos Energy will allocate securitized utility tariff charges to its retail customer classes based on each retail customer classes&#146; percentage of the total estimated February 2021 sales volumes (&#147;initial
percentages&#148;). The initial percentages will remain in effect throughout the life of the securitized utility tariff bonds; provided, however, if the customer count for a particular retail class declines by more than 10&nbsp;percent from that
identified in the 2021 Annual Report, then the allocation factors will be recalculated using the most recent <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">12-month</FONT> weather normalized volume for each retail customer class. Furthermore, retail customer
classes are cross-collateralized in the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustment mechanism, that is, projected revenue shortfalls in one retail customer class are remedied by adjustments to the securitized utility tariff charges
for each retail customer class, not only the retail customer class with the projected revenue shortfalls. Please read &#147;&#151;<I>Additional Other Similar Bonds</I>.&#148; </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Background Information. </I>Atmos Energy, headquartered in Dallas, Texas, and incorporated in Texas and Virginia, is the country&#146;s
largest <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">natural-gas-only</FONT></FONT> distributor based on number of customers. Atmos Energy serves approximately 3.3&nbsp;million residential, commercial, public authority and
industrial customers located primarily in the South. At September&nbsp;30, 2022, Atmos Energy had 4,791 employees, including 173 employees in Kansas. Atmos Energy, as a regulated utility, is subject to the regulations and oversight of various state
and local regulatory authorities as well as the United States Department of Transportation. Additionally, Atmos Energy&#146;s operations are also subject to state and federal laws regulation environmental matters. Generally, Atmos Energy, acting as
the initial servicer, and any successor servicer, referred to in this prospectus as the &#147;servicer,&#148; will service the securitized utility tariff property securing the securitized utility tariff bonds under a servicing agreement with us.
Neither Atmos Energy nor any other affiliate (other than us) is an obligor on the securitized utility tariff bonds. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Service Area.</I>
As of September&nbsp;30, 2022, Atmos Energy owned approximately 4,100 miles of pipeline and served 107 communities in Kansas. Atmos Energy&#146;s service area in Kansas includes all territory within the State of Kansas subject to the jurisdiction of
the Kansas commission in which Atmos Energy provides natural gas distribution service as of October&nbsp;25, 2022 (the date of the financing order). As of September&nbsp;30, 2022, Atmos Energy supplied natural gas service to approximately 139,000
customers in Kansas, of which approximately 99.65% will be subject to the securitized utility tariff charges. During its fiscal year 2022, Atmos Energy had $43&nbsp;million in capital expenditures and spent $467,000 towards charitable giving in
Kansas. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Municipalization</I>. Kansas securitization legislation allows a natural gas public utility, in its sole discretion, to apply
to the Kansas commission for a financing order to recover qualified extraordinary costs through the issuance of bonds. The Securitization Act specifies that securitized utility tariff charges approved by a financing order shall be collected by a
utility as well as its &#147;successors or assignees.&#148; In the servicing agreement, Atmos Energy has covenanted to assert in an appropriate forum that any municipality that acquires any portion of Atmos Energy&#146;s natural gas distribution
facilities by expropriation, including upon the expiration of any franchise agreement, must be treated as a successor to Atmos Energy under the Securitization Act and the financing order. However, the involved municipality might assert that it
should not be treated as a successor to Atmos Energy for these purposes and that its distribution customers are not responsible for payment of securitized utility tariff charges. Please read &#147;RISK FACTORS&#151;<I>Risks associated with potential
judicial, legislative or regulatory actions</I>&#151;A municipal entity may seek to acquire portions of Atmos Energy&#146;s gas distribution facilities and avoid payment of the securitized utility tariff charges&#148; in this prospectus. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Executive Offices. </I>Atmos Energy&#146;s principal executive offices are located at 1800 Three Lincoln Centre, 5430 LBJ Freeway, Dallas,

minimize credit risk, Atmos Energy assesses the credit worthiness of new customers, requires deposits when necessary, assesses late fees, pursues collection activities and disconnects service for nonpayment. After disconnection, accounts are written
off when deemed uncollectible. At each reporting period, Atmos Energy assesses the allowance for uncollectible accounts based on historical experience, current conditions and consideration of expected future conditions. Circumstances that could
affect allowance estimates include but are not limited to customer issues, natural gas prices, customer deposits, and general economic conditions. In connection with the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">COVID-19</FONT> pandemic, Atmos Energy
suspended its activity of disconnecting due to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-payment</FONT> beginning in 2020. Atmos Energy resumed disconnecting due to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-payment</FONT> in July 2021. </P>

required Atmos Energy to temporarily suspend customer collection activities and to stop charging late fees. After regulators lifted these moratoriums, Atmos Energy resumed customer collection activities during the third quarter of fiscal 2021. These
regulatory orders influenced Atmos Energy&#146;s bad debt expense and writeoffs from fiscal 2020 through 2022. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Atmos Energy is actively
working with customers experiencing financial hardship to offer flexible payment options and to direct them to aid agencies for financial assistance. The allowance for uncollectible accounts reflects the expected impact on the customers&#146;
ability to pay. The allowance for uncollectible accounts also reflects the fact that Atmos Energy has the ability to recover the gas cost portion of uncollectible accounts through Atmos Energy&#146;s gas cost recovery mechanisms in five states,
which covers approximately 81% of Atmos Energy&#146;s residential and commercial customers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="tx472690_32"></A>Write-off and Delinquency

</A>Competition and Alternatives to Gas as An Energy Source for Atmos Energy Customers </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Atmos Energy competes with other natural gas
suppliers and suppliers of alternative fuels for sales to industrial customers. Atmos Energy competes in every aspect of the business with alternative energy sources including electricity. Electric utilities offer electricity as a rival energy
source for the space heating, water heating and cooking markets. Promotional incentives, improved equipment efficiencies and promotional rates all contribute to the acceptability of electrical equipment. The principal means to compete against
alternative fuels is lower prices, and natural gas historically has maintained its price advantage in the residential, commercial and industrial markets. Atmos Energy&#146;s pipeline and storage operations have historically faced competition from
other existing intrastate pipelines seeking to provide transportation and other services for customers. Over the last few years, new pipelines have been completed which has increased the level of competition in this segment of Atmos Energy&#146;s
business. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="tx472690_28"></A>Additional Natural Gas Utility Considerations </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">An objective of Atmos Energy&#146;s supply-sourcing strategy is to provide value to its customers through reliable, competitively priced and
flexible natural gas supply and transportation from multiple production areas and suppliers. This strategy is designed to mitigate the impact on Atmos Energy&#146;s supply from physical interruption, financial difficulties of a single supplier,
natural disasters and other unforeseen force majeure events, as well as to ensure that adequate supply is available to meet the variations of customer demand. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Atmos Energy maintains supply contracts with several vendors that generally cover a period of up to one year. Commitments for estimated base
gas volumes are established under these contracts on a monthly basis at contractually negotiated prices. Atmos Energy does not anticipate problems with securing natural gas supply to satisfy customer demand. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="tx472690_29"></A>Weather Rules </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Kansas statutory requirements and the rules and regulations of the Kansas commission, which may change from time to time, regulate and control
the right to disconnect service. The Kansas commission enforces specific weather rules on Atmos Energy in extreme weather conditions. A natural gas utility must not disconnect service for a residential customer on a day when the temperature is
predicted to fall below 35 degrees Fahrenheit within the following 48 hours, according to the applicable local National Weather Service forecast. To the extent these customers do not pay for their natural gas service, Atmos Energy will not be able
to collect securitized utility tariff charges from these customers. Weather moratoriums prohibit Atmos Energy from disconnecting a customer for a short period of time during a weather event, typically a few days. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For all classes, including residential and small commercial, Atmos Energy forecasts natural gas customer counts based on trends and reasonable
expectations of future growth. Past data for residential and commercial customers shows trends to be at a consistent rate of increase for Atmos Energy&#146;s service area. Historically, the number of Atmos Energy&#146;s larger industrial customers
has not changed significantly and Atmos Energy does not usually forecast any industrial customer growth unless there is a known customer coming into its service area. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Once per year (typically in the fourth quarter), Atmos Energy completes a five-year forecast of customers where the models are completely <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">re-estimated</FONT> and where large individual customers are evaluated. The output of this exercise is the customer count and sales forecast that underlies Atmos Energy&#146;s annual five-year business plan. This forecast
is typically the first step in a multi-stage planning process that determines customer growth, average volume usage, and revenue. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="tx472690_31">

in Atmos Energy&#146;s service area in Kansas by customer type (residential or <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-residential)</FONT> for the past five fiscal years. Variances between actual customer counts and forecasted customer counts can be
caused by a number of factors such as: the timing of completion of new housing development (<I>i.e.</I>, when meter connected), delinquent customers not disconnected due to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">COVID-19</FONT> moratoriums during 2020 and
2021, the timing of completion of Atmos Energy capital projects, abnormal weather conditions (<I>i.e.</I>, colder or warmer than normal) impacting the timing of when a customer reconnects or disconnects service, and the health of the overall

month following the issuance of the securitized utility tariff bonds. Securitized utility tariff charges will be calculated on a fixed monthly charge per retail customer, pursuant to the method described in the Winter Event Securitized Cost Recovery
Rider. The fixed monthly per retail customer securitized utility tariff charge will be adjusted semi-annually pursuant to the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustment mechanism. In addition to semi-annual <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustments, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustments may be made by the servicer more frequently at any time during the term of the securitized utility tariff bonds to correct any
under-collection to ensure timely payment of securitized utility tariff bonds as scheduled. In the event an interim <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> is necessary, the interim <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> adjustment
should be filed by the 15th day of the current month for implementation in the first billing cycle of the following month. The securitized utility tariff charge per retail customer initially will be calculated using the retail customer count
reported in the most recent Atmos Energy Annual Report and will be updated semi-annually. If the customer count for a particular retail class declines by more than 10&nbsp;percent from that identified in the 2021 Annual Report, then the allocation
factors will be recalculated using the most recent <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">12-month</FONT> weather normalized volume for each retail customer class. The securitized utility tariff charges shall be collected over the expected life of the
securitized utility tariff bonds. However, securitized utility tariff charges shall be collected until all of the securitized utility tariff bonds and related ongoing financing costs are paid in full. </P>

securitized utility tariff charge customer class at the applicable rate for the class determined pursuant to the financing order. These securitized utility tariff charges may be adjusted semi-annually, or more frequently under certain circumstances,
by the servicer in accordance with its filings with the Kansas commission. Please read &#147;ATMOS ENERGY&#146;S FINANCING ORDER&#148; in this prospectus. </P>

securities lending and borrowing. Clearstream also deals with domestic securities markets in various countries through established depositary and custodial relationships. Clearstream is
registered as a bank in Luxembourg and therefore is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier, which supervises Luxembourg banks. Clearstream&#146;s customers are world-wide financial institutions
including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations, among others, and may include the underwriter of the securitized utility tariff bonds. Clearstream&#146;s U.S. customers are limited to
securities brokers and dealers and banks. Clearstream has customers located in various countries. Indirect access to Clearstream is also available to other institutions that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with an account holder
of Clearstream. Clearstream has established an electronic bridge with Euroclear to facilitate settlement of trades between Clearstream and Euroclear. </P>

book-entry interests in securities for Euroclear participants and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between Euroclear participants, and between Euroclear participants and participants of certain other securities
intermediaries through simultaneous electronic book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities and any risk from lack of simultaneous transfers of securities and cash. Such transactions may be
settled in any of various currencies, including United States dollars. Euroclear includes various other services, including, among other things, safekeeping, administration, clearance and settlement, securities lending and borrowing and interfaces
with domestic markets in several countries generally similar to the arrangements for cross-market transfers with DTC described below. Euroclear is operated by Euroclear Bank SA/NV. Euroclear participants include central banks and other banks,
securities brokers and dealers and other professional financial intermediaries and may include the underwriter of the securitized utility tariff bonds. Indirect access to Euroclear is also available to other firms that clear through or maintain a
custodial relationship with a Euroclear participant, either directly or indirectly. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Terms and Conditions of Euroclear.</I> Securities
clearance accounts and cash accounts with Euroclear are governed by the Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear and the related Operating Procedures of Euroclear, and applicable Belgian law (collectively, the &#147;Terms and
Conditions&#148;). These Terms and Conditions govern transfers of securities and cash within Euroclear, withdrawals of securities and cash from Euroclear and receipts of payments with respect to securities in Euroclear. All securities in Euroclear
are held on a fungible basis without attribution of specific securities to specific securities clearance accounts. Euroclear acts under the Terms and Conditions only on behalf of Euroclear participants and has no record of or relationship with
persons holding through Euroclear participants. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>The Rules for Transfers Among DTC, Clearstream or Euroclear Participants.</I>
Transfers between DTC participants will occur in accordance with DTC rules. Transfers between Clearstream customers or Euroclear participants will occur in the ordinary way in accordance with their applicable rules and operating procedures and will
be settled using procedures applicable to conventional securities held in registered form. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Cross-market transfers between persons holding
directly or indirectly through DTC, on the one hand, and directly or indirectly through Clearstream customers or Euroclear participants, on the other, will be effected through DTC in accordance with DTC rules on behalf of the relevant European
international clearing system by its depositary; provided, however, those cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to the relevant European international clearing system by the counterparty in that system in accordance with
its rules and procedures and within its established deadlines, which will be based on European time. The relevant European international clearing system will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its
depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving securitized utility tariff bonds in DTC and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">same-day</FONT> funds settlement applicable to DTC. Clearstream customers and Euroclear participants may not deliver instructions directly to Clearstream&#146;s and Euroclear&#146;s depositaries. </P>

tariff bondholders that are not Direct Participants or Indirect Participants but desire to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of, or other interest in, securitized utility tariff bonds may do so only through Direct Participants and
Indirect Participants. In addition, securitized utility tariff bondholders will receive all distributions of principal of and interest on the securitized utility tariff bonds from the trustee through the participants, who in turn will receive them
from DTC. Under a book-entry format, securitized utility tariff bondholders may experience some delay in their receipt of payments because payments will be remitted by the trustee to Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co., as nominee for DTC. DTC will forward those
payments to its Direct Participants, who thereafter will forward them to Indirect Participants or securitized utility tariff bondholders. It is anticipated that the only &#147;bondholder&#148; will be Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co., as nominee of DTC. The
trustee will not recognize securitized utility tariff bondholders as bondholders, as that term is used in the Indenture, and securitized utility tariff bondholders will be permitted to exercise the rights of bondholders only indirectly through the
participants, who in turn will exercise the rights of securitized utility tariff bondholders through DTC. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the rules, regulations
and procedures creating and affecting DTC and its operations, DTC is required to make book-entry transfers of book-entry certificates among participants on whose behalf it acts with respect to the securitized utility tariff bonds and is required to
receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the securitized utility tariff bonds. Direct Participants and Indirect Participants with whom securitized utility tariff bondholders have accounts with respect to the securitized
utility tariff bonds similarly are required to make book-entry transfers and receive and transmit those payments on behalf of their respective securitized utility tariff bondholders. Accordingly, although holders of securitized utility tariff bonds
will not possess securitized utility tariff bonds, securitized utility tariff bondholders will receive payments and will be able to transfer their interests. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Because DTC can act only on behalf of participants, who in turn act on behalf of indirect participants and certain banks, the ability of a
securitized utility tariff bondholder to pledge securitized utility tariff bonds to persons or entities that do not participate in the DTC system, or otherwise take actions in respect of those bonds, may be limited due to the lack of a physical
certificate for those securitized utility tariff bonds. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">DTC has advised us that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a
securitized utility tariff bondholder under the Indenture only at the direction of one or more participants to whose account with DTC the securitized utility tariff bonds are credited. Additionally, DTC has advised us that it will take those actions
with respect to specified percentages of the collateral amount only at the direction of and on behalf of participants whose holdings include interests that satisfy those specified percentages. DTC may take conflicting actions with respect to other
interests to the extent that those actions are taken on behalf of participants whose holdings include those interests. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Except as required

securitized utility tariff charges and the rate of principal amortization on the securitized utility tariff bonds will depend, in part, on the number of retail customers and the rate of delinquencies and write-offs. The securitized utility tariff
charges are required to be adjusted from time to time based in part on the actual rate of collected securitized utility tariff charges. However, we can give no assurance that the servicer will be able to forecast accurately the actual number of

default, however, the securitized utility tariff bonds will not be paid at a rate faster than that contemplated in the expected amortization schedule of the securitized utility tariff bonds even if the receipt of collected securitized utility tariff
charges is accelerated. Instead, receipts in excess of the amounts necessary to amortize the securitized utility tariff bonds in accordance with the applicable expected amortization schedule, to pay interest and related fees and expenses and to fund
subaccounts of the collection account will be allocated to the excess funds subaccount. Acceleration of the final maturity date after an event of default in accordance with the terms thereof will result in payment of principal earlier than the
scheduled final payment date. A payment on a date that is earlier than forecast might result in a shorter weighted average life, and a payment on a date that is later than forecast might result in a longer weighted average life. In addition, if a
larger portion of the delayed payments on the securitized utility tariff bonds is received in later years, the securitized utility tariff bonds may have a longer weighted average life. </P>

remittance. The servicer shall also, promptly upon receipt, remit to the collection account any other proceeds of the trust estate that it may receive from time to time. In the servicing agreement, the servicer will agree and acknowledge that it
holds all securitized utility tariff charge payments or any other proceeds for the trust estate received by it for the benefit of the trustee and the securitized utility tariff bondholders and that all such amounts will be remitted by the servicer
without any surcharge, fee, offset, charge or other deduction. The servicer shall not make any claim to reduce its obligation to remit all securitized utility tariff charge payments collected by it in accordance with the servicing agreement. Unless
otherwise directed to do so by us, the servicer shall be responsible for selecting eligible investments in which the funds in the collection account shall be invested pursuant to the Indenture. </P>

securitized utility tariff bonds and similar securitization charges) and the amount owed for other fees and charges, other than late charges, and second, late fees and charges may be allocated to Atmos Energy. The portion owed in respect of

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Challenge to True Sale Treatment. </I>Atmos Energy will represent and warrant that the transfer of the securitized utility tariff property
in accordance with the sale agreement constitutes a true and valid sale and assignment of the securitized utility tariff property by Atmos Energy to us. It will be a condition of closing for the sale of the securitized utility tariff property
pursuant to the sale agreement that Atmos Energy will take the appropriate actions under the Securitization Act, including filing a notice of transfer of an interest in the securitized utility tariff property, to perfect this sale. The
Securitization Act provides that a transfer of securitized utility tariff property by a utility to an assignee which the parties have in the governing documentation expressly stated to be a sale or other absolute transfer, in a transaction approved
in a financing order, shall be treated as an absolute transfer of all the transferor&#146;s right, title and interest, as a &#147;true sale&#148; under applicable creditors&#146; rights principles, and not as a pledge or other financing, of the
relevant securitized utility tariff property. The sale agreement provides that we and Atmos Energy will treat such a transaction as a sale under applicable law. However, we expect that the securitized utility tariff bonds will be reflected as debt
on Atmos Energy&#146;s consolidated financial statements. In addition, we anticipate that the securitized utility tariff bonds will be treated as debt of Atmos Energy for federal income tax purposes. See &#147;THE SECURITIZATION ACT&#151;Atmos
Energy May Securitize Qualified Extraordinary Costs and Related Upfront and Ongoing Financing Costs&#148; and &#147;MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES.&#148; In the event of a bankruptcy of a party to the sale agreement, if a party in
interest in the bankruptcy were to take the position that the transfer of the securitized utility tariff property to us pursuant to that sale agreement was a financing transaction and not a true sale under applicable creditors&#146; rights
principles, there can be no assurance that a court would not adopt this position. Even if a court did not ultimately recharacterize the transaction as a financing transaction, the mere commencement of a bankruptcy of Atmos Energy and the attendant
possible uncertainty surrounding the treatment of the transaction could result in delays in payments on the securitized utility tariff bonds. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In that regard, we note that the bankruptcy court in <I>In re: LTV Steel Company, Inc., et al.</I>, 274 B.R. 278 (Bankr. N. D. Oh. 2001)
issued an interim order that observed that a debtor, LTV Steel Company, which had previously entered into securitization arrangements with respect both to its inventory and its accounts receivable may have &#147;at least some equitable interest in
the inventory and receivables, and that this interest is property of the Debtor&#146;s estate... sufficient to support the entry of&#148; an interim order permitting the debtor to use proceeds of the property sold in the securitization. 274 B.R. at
285. The court based its decision in large part on its view of the equities of the case. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">LTV and the securitization investors
subsequently settled their dispute over the terms of the interim order and the bankruptcy court entered a final order in which the parties admitted and the court found that the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-petition</FONT> transactions
constituted &#147;true sales.&#148; The court did not otherwise overrule its earlier ruling. The LTV memorandum opinion serves as an example of the pervasive equity powers of bankruptcy courts and the importance that such courts may ascribe to the
goal of reorganization, particularly where the assets sold are integral to the ongoing operation of the debtor&#146;s business. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Even if
no creditor challenges the sale of securitized utility tariff property to us as a true sale, a bankruptcy filing by Atmos Energy could trigger a bankruptcy filing by the issuing entity with similar negative consequences for bondholders. In a recent
bankruptcy case, <I>In re General Growth Properties, Inc.</I>, 406 B.R. 171 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2009), General Growth Properties, Inc. filed for bankruptcy protection, along with many of its direct and indirect subsidiaries. Those subsidiaries included
many entities that had been organized as special purpose vehicles. The bankruptcy court upheld the validity of the filings of these special purpose subsidiaries as bankruptcy debtors and allowed the subsidiaries, over the objections of their own
creditors, to use the creditors&#146; cash collateral to fund loans to the parent debtor, General Growth Properties, Inc., for its general corporate purposes. The creditors received court-determined adequate protection in the form of current
interest payments and replacement liens to mitigate any diminution in value resulting from the use of the cash collateral, but the opinion serves as a reminder that bankruptcy courts may subordinate legal rights of creditors to the interests of
facilitation of the reorganization of a debtor. </P>

the creation, granting, perfection and enforcement of liens and security interests in the securitized utility tariff property are governed by the Securitization Act and not by the UCC (except, as to perfection, with respect to the filing of
financing statements in places specified in the UCC and to conformity of the form of financing statements with provisions of the UCC). Under the Securitization Act, a valid and enforceable consensual security interest in the securitized utility
tariff property may be created only by the execution and delivery of a security agreement with a securitized utility tariff bondholder or a trustee or agent for the holder that refers to the specific financing order that created the securitized
utility tariff property. The Securitization Act provides that the security interest attaches automatically from the time value is received for the securitized utility tariff bonds. The Securitization Act provides that upon perfection through the
filing of notice with the Kansas Secretary of State pursuant to rules established by the Secretary of State of Kansas, the security interest shall be a continuously perfected lien and security interest in the securitized utility tariff property,
with priority in the order of filing and take precedence over any subsequent judicial or other lien creditor. The Securitization Act provides that the security interest will be perfected as of the date of filing. </P>

risk. Please read &#147;ATMOS ENERGY KANSAS SECURITIZATION I, LLC, THE ISSUING ENTITY&#148; in this prospectus. However, no assurance can be given that if Atmos Energy were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case, a court would not order that our
assets and liabilities be substantively consolidated with those of Atmos Energy. Substantive consolidation would result in payment of the claims of the beneficial owners of the securitized utility tariff bonds to be subject to substantial delay and

event of a bankruptcy of Atmos Energy, a court would not rule that the securitized utility tariff property comes into existence only as Atmos Energy&#146;s customers use natural gas. </P>

tariff property sold pursuant to the sale agreement comes into existence only as customers use natural gas, a tax or government lien or other nonconsensual lien on property of Atmos Energy arising before the securitized utility tariff property came
into existence could have priority over our interest in the securitized utility tariff property. Adjustments to the securitized utility tariff charges may be available to mitigate this exposure, although there may be delays in implementing these

claims, including indemnity claims, by us or the trustee against Atmos Energy as seller under the sale agreement and the other documents executed in connection therewith could be unsecured claims and would be subject to being discharged in the

be estimated at zero or at a low amount because the contingency giving rise to these claims is unlikely to occur. If a court were to hold that the indemnity provisions were unenforceable, we would be left with a claim for actual damages against
Atmos Energy based on breach of contract principles. The actual amount of these damages would be subject to estimation and/or calculation by the court. </P>

of Rights By the Trustee. </I>Upon an event of default under the Indenture, the Securitization Act permits the trustee to enforce the security interest in the securitized utility tariff property sold pursuant to the sale agreement in accordance with
the terms of the Indenture. In this capacity, the trustee is permitted to request the Kansas commission or the 10th Judicial District, District Court of Johnson County, Kansas to order the sequestration and payment to holders of the securitized
utility tariff bonds of all revenues arising from the securitized utility tariff charges. There can be no assurance, however, that the Kansas commission or a court would issue such an order, including if seller is a debtor in bankruptcy in light of
the automatic stay provisions of Section&nbsp;362 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. In that event, the trustee may under the Indenture seek an order from the bankruptcy court lifting the automatic stay with respect to this action by the Kansas
commission or a court and an order requiring an accounting and segregation of the revenues arising from the securitized utility tariff property sold pursuant to the sale agreement. There can be no assurance that a court would grant either order.

defeated or adversely affected by the commingling of securitized utility tariff charges arising with respect to the securitized utility tariff property with funds of the natural gas utility. In the event of a bankruptcy of the servicer, a party in

the court grants relief from the stay. A court ruling on any request for relief from the stay could be delayed pending the court&#146;s resolution of whether the commingled securitized utility tariff charges are our property or are property of the

may petition the Kansas commission or a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor servicer that meets this criterion. However, the automatic stay in effect during a servicer bankruptcy might delay or prevent a successor servicer&#146;s
replacement of the servicer. Even if a successor servicer may be appointed and may replace the servicer, a successor may be difficult to obtain and may not be capable of performing all of the duties that Atmos Energy as servicer was capable of

securitized utility tariff charges that are commingled with other funds of Atmos Energy prior to or as of the date of bankruptcy, including securitized utility tariff charges associated with another series of securitized utility tariff bonds. If so,
the collected securitized utility tariff charges held by Atmos as of the date of bankruptcy would not be available to us to pay amounts owed on the securitized utility tariff bonds. In this case, we would have only a general unsecured claim against

transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids with respect to the securitized utility tariff bonds in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Overallotment transactions involve syndicate sales in excess of the offering
size, which create a syndicate short position. Stabilizing transactions are bids to purchase the securitized utility tariff bonds, which are permitted, so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specific maximum price. Syndicate covering
transactions involve purchases of the securitized utility tariff bonds in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriter to reclaim a selling concession from
a syndicate member when the securitized utility tariff bonds originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction. These overallotment transactions, stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and
penalty bids may cause the prices of the securitized utility tariff bonds to be higher than they would otherwise be. Neither we, Atmos Energy, the trustee, our managers nor the underwriter represents that the underwriter will engage in any of these
transactions or that these transactions, if commenced, will not be discontinued without notice at any time. </P>

bonds at original issue for cash equal to the issue price of those bonds and hold their securitized utility tariff bonds as capital assets within the meaning of Section&nbsp;1221 of the Internal Revenue Code, and it does not address all of the tax
consequences relevant to investors that are subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax laws (e.g., life insurance companies, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> organizations, financial institutions,
dealers in securities, S corporations, taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, broker-dealers, persons who hold the securitized utility tariff bonds as part of a hedge, straddle, &#147;synthetic

&#147;applicable financial statement&#148; (within the meaning of Section&nbsp;451(b) of the Code)). This discussion also does not address U.S. federal taxes other than income tax or the consequences to holders of the securitized utility tariff
bonds under state, local or foreign tax laws. Please read &#147;MATERIAL KANSAS INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES&#148; in this prospectus. However, by acquiring a securitized utility tariff bond, a holder agrees to treat the securitized utility tariff bond

securitized utility tariff bonds will be taxable as ordinary interest income when received or accrued by U.S. holders, depending upon their method of accounting. This discussion assumes that the securitized utility tariff bonds will not be
considered to be issued with original issue discount (&#147;OID&#148;). OID is generally defined as any excess of the stated price the U.S. holder will receive upon redemption of the bond at the bond&#146;s maturity, less the price the U.S. holder
pays to purchase the bond, if this difference is equal to or greater than a de minimis amount. If the securitized utility tariff bonds are issued with OID, prospective U.S. holders will be so informed in the related prospectus and should thereafter
consult their tax adviser to determine the federal, state, local and foreign income and any other tax consequences. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Sale or Other Taxable Disposition

securitized utility tariff bond, a U.S. holder generally will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between (a)&nbsp;the amount of cash and the fair market value of any other property received (other than amounts attributable to,
and taxable as, accrued stated interest), and (b)&nbsp;the holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in the securitized utility tariff bond. A U.S. holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in a securitized utility tariff bond generally will equal its cost, reduced
by any payments reflecting principal previously received with respect to the bond. Gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss if the securitized utility tariff bond is held as a capital asset and will be long-term capital gain or loss if
the securitized utility tariff bond was held for more than one year at the time of disposition. If a U.S. holder sells a securitized utility tariff bond between interest payment dates, a portion of the amount received will reflect interest that has
accrued on the securitized utility tariff bond but that has not yet been paid by the sale date and, to the extent that amount has not already been included in the U.S. holder&#146;s income, it will be treated as ordinary interest income and not as
capital gain. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>3.8% Tax on &#147;Net Investment Income&#148; </I></P>

applies for U.S. federal income tax purposes, for Kansas income tax purposes, we will not be treated as a taxable entity separate and apart from Atmos Energy; and (iii)&nbsp;assuming that such treatment applies for U.S. federal income tax purposes,

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We expect that the securitized utility tariff bonds will receive credit ratings from two NRSROs. A security rating is not a recommendation to
buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning NRSRO. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. No person or entity is obligated to maintain the rating on the
securitized utility tariff bonds and, accordingly, we can give no assurance that the ratings assigned to the securitized utility tariff bonds upon initial issuance will not be lowered or withdrawn by a NRSRO at any time thereafter. If a rating of
the securitized utility tariff bonds is lowered or withdrawn, the liquidity of the securitized utility tariff bonds may be adversely affected. In general, ratings address credit risk and do not represent any assessment of any particular rate of
principal payments on the securitized utility tariff bonds other than the payment in full of the securitized utility tariff bonds by the final maturity date, as well as the timely payment of interest. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">17g-5</FONT> under the Exchange Act, NRSROs providing the sponsor with the requisite certification
will have access to all information posted on a website by the sponsor for the purpose of determining the initial rating and monitoring the rating after the securitized utility tariff bonds issuance date. As a result, an NRSRO other than the NRSROs
hired by the sponsor may issue Unsolicited Ratings, which may be lower, and could be significantly lower, than the ratings assigned by the hired NRSROs. The Unsolicited Ratings may be issued prior to, or after, the securitized utility tariff bonds
issuance date. Issuance of any Unsolicited Rating will not affect the issuance of the securitized utility tariff bonds. Issuance of an Unsolicited Rating lower than the ratings assigned by the hired NRSROs on the securitized utility tariff bonds
might adversely affect the value of the securitized utility tariff bonds and, for regulated entities, could affect the status of the securitized utility tariff bonds as a legal investment or the capital treatment of the securitized utility tariff
bonds. Investors in the securitized utility tariff bonds should consult with their legal counsel regarding the effect of the issuance of a rating by a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-hired</FONT> NRSRO that is lower than the rating of a hired
NRSRO. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A portion of the fees paid by Atmos Energy to a NRSRO that is hired to assign a rating on the securitized utility tariff bonds is
contingent upon the issuance of the securitized utility tariff bonds. In addition to the fees paid by Atmos Energy to a NRSRO at closing, Atmos Energy will pay a fee to the NRSRO for ongoing surveillance for so long as the securitized utility tariff
bonds are outstanding. However, no NRSRO is under any obligation to continue to monitor or provide a rating on the securitized utility tariff bonds. </P>

(other than the payment by a registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of such registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, each registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
