<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Consumers 2014 Securitization Funding LLC, or the <b>issuing entity</b>, is issuing $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; of Senior Secured Securitization Bonds, Series&nbsp;2014A, referred to in this prospectus supplement as the <b>securitization bonds</b> or the <b>bonds</b>, in three tranches. Consumers Energy Company, or <b>Consumers Energy</b>, is the <b>depositor</b>, <b>seller</b>, <b>initial servicer</b> and <b>sponsor</b> with regard to the bonds. The bonds are senior secured obligations of the issuing entity supported by the securitization property, described in this prospectus supplement, which includes the right to a special, irrevocable nonbypassable charge, known as a <b>securitization charge</b>, paid by Michigan retail electric distribution customers of Consumers Energy (or any successor) based on their electricity usage as discussed in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. Act 142 (defined in this prospectus supplement) mandates that securitization charges be adjusted at least annually, and the Michigan Public Service Commission, or the <b>MPSC</b>, further permits true-up adjustments to occur semi-annually (and in certain circumstances quarterly or more frequently) if necessary, in each case to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds, as described further in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. Credit enhancement for the bonds will be provided by these true-up adjustments as well as by accounts held under the indenture described in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The bonds represent obligations only of the issuing entity and do not represent obligations of Consumers Energy or any of its affiliates other than the issuing entity. The bonds are secured by the assets of the issuing entity, consisting principally of the securitization property and funds on deposit in the collection account for the bonds and related subaccounts. Please read &#147;The Bonds&#151;The Collateral&#148; and &#147;&#151;The Securitization Property&#148; and &#147;Credit Enhancement&#148; in this prospectus supplement. The bonds are not a debt or obligation of the State of Michigan and are not a charge on its full faith and credit or taxing power.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In its financing order, the MPSC affirms that it will act pursuant to its financing order to ensure that the expected securitization charges are sufficient to pay on a timely basis scheduled principal of and interest on the bonds and the ongoing other qualified costs as described below in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The financing order, together with the securitization charges authorized by the financing order, are irrevocable and not subject to reduction, impairment, postponement, termination or adjustment by further action of the MPSC, except by use of the true-up adjustment procedures approved in the financing order.</font></p>

The first scheduled payment date is &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;, 2014. Interest will accrue from &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;, 2014 and must be paid by the purchaser if the bonds are delivered after that date. There currently is no secondary market for the bonds, and we cannot assure you that one will develop.</font></p>

In addition,   the financing order provides that true-up adjustments are required on a   semi-annual basis (or, one year prior to the last scheduled final payment   date for the latest maturing tranche, on a quarterly basis) if the servicer   determines that a true-up adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected   recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the   timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in   connection with the securitization bonds. True-up adjustments may also be   made by the servicer more frequently at any time, without limits as to   frequency, if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is necessary   to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of   amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required   amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds.

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act   142 provides that the securitization charges are nonbypassable, and the   financing order requires the imposition and the collection of securitization   charges from all existing and future covered electric customers. Covered   electric customers do not include (i)&nbsp;current choice customers, (ii)&nbsp;customers   to the extent they obtain or use self-service power or (iii)&nbsp;customers   to the extent engaged in affiliate wheeling. Any successor to Consumers   Energy under Act 142, whether pursuant to any bankruptcy, reorganization or   other insolvency proceeding or pursuant to any merger, acquisition, sale or   transfer, by operation of law, as a result of electric utility restructuring   or otherwise, must perform and satisfy all obligations of Consumers Energy   under Act 142. The securitization charges are applied to covered electric   customers individually and are adjusted and reallocated among all such   covered electric customers as necessary under the true-up mechanism. Please   read &#147;The Securitization Charges&#148; in this prospectus supplement and   &#147;Consumers Energy&#146;s Financing Order&#148; and &#147;The Servicing Agreement&#151;True-Up   Adjustment Process&#148; in the accompanying prospectus.

Please read &#147;Description of the Securitization Bonds&#151;Interest and Principal on the Securitization Bonds&#148; and &#147;Description of the Securitization Bonds&#151;Events of Default; Rights Upon Event of Default&#148; in the accompanying prospectus.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In general terms, all of the rights and interests of Consumers Energy established pursuant to the financing order, upon transfer to us pursuant to the sale agreement, are referred to in this prospectus supplement as the <b>securitization property</b>. The securitization property includes the right to impose, collect and receive securitization charges payable by all covered electric customers in an amount necessary to provide the full recovery of all qualified costs. Under the financing order, the customers responsible for paying securitization charges consist of all of Consumers Energy&#146;s covered electric customers. Covered electric customers do not include (i)&nbsp;current choice customers, (ii)&nbsp;customers to the extent they obtain or use self-service power or (iii)&nbsp;customers to the extent engaged in affiliate wheeling. Any successor to Consumers Energy under Act 142, whether pursuant to any bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding or pursuant to any merger, acquisition, sale or transfer, by operation of law, as a result of electric utility restructuring or otherwise, must perform and satisfy all obligations of Consumers Energy under Act 142.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">During the twelve months ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, approximately 39% of Consumers Energy&#146;s total electric usage (as measured by billed gigawatt-hour sales) in the State of Michigan was to residential customers, approximately 23% was to secondary customers and approximately 37% was to primary customers.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We will purchase the securitization property from Consumers Energy. Neither the securitization property nor the other collateral securing the bonds is or will be a static pool of assets. Securitization charges authorized in the financing order are irrevocable and not subject to reduction, impairment, postponement, termination or, except for the specified true-up adjustments to correct any overcollections or undercollections, adjustment by further action of the MPSC. Securitization charges on covered electric customers will be adjusted at least annually to correct any overcollections or undercollections of the preceding 12 months and to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. Securitization charges will be adjusted semi-annually (or, one year prior to the last scheduled final payment date for the latest maturing tranche, quarterly) if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. True-up adjustments to securitization charges may also be made by the servicer more frequently at any time, without limits as to frequency, if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. The financing order permits mid-year true-up adjustments to be implemented immediately without additional MPSC approval if the proposed true-up adjustment is not opposed. Please read &#147;Credit Enhancement&#151;True-Up Mechanism for Payment of Scheduled Principal and Interest&#148; in this prospectus supplement. All revenues and collections resulting from securitization charges provided for in the financing order are part of the securitization property. The securitization property relating to the bonds is described in more detail under &#147;Description of the Securitization Property&#148; in the accompanying prospectus.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under the indenture, the trustee or the holders of the bonds have the right to foreclose or otherwise enforce the lien on the securitization property. However, in the event of foreclosure, there is likely to be a limited market, if any, for the securitization property. Therefore, foreclosure might not be a realistic or practical remedy. Please read &#147;Risk Factors&#151;Risk Associated with the Unusual Nature of the Securitization Property&#151;Foreclosure of the trustee&#146;s lien on the securitization property for the securitization bonds might not be practical, and acceleration of the securitization bonds before maturity might have little practical effect&#148; in the accompanying prospectus.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On December&nbsp;6, 2013, the MPSC issued the financing order relating to the bonds. The financing order authorizes Consumers Energy to securitize and cause to be issued bonds in one or more series in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $389,600,000, representing qualified costs, as defined in Act 142, of the remaining book value of certain generating units and transaction and debt retirement costs. Consumers Energy unconditionally accepted all conditions and limitations requested by such order in a letter dated January&nbsp;24, 2014 from Consumers Energy to the MPSC. As of January&nbsp;24, 2014, the financing order was final and not subject to appeal.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The financing order also authorizes securitization charges in amounts sufficient to recover the principal of and interest on the bonds plus ongoing other qualified costs. The MPSC affirms that it will act pursuant to the financing order to ensure that expected securitization charges are sufficient to timely pay scheduled principal of and interest on the bonds and ongoing other qualified costs in connection with the securitization bonds.

Unless the bonds have been accelerated following an event of default, any excess funds remaining in the collection account after payment of principal, interest, ongoing other qualified costs and other applicable fees and expenses, replenishment of any amounts drawn from the capital subaccount and release of investment earnings on funds in the capital subaccount will be retained in the excess funds subaccount.

However, the nature of our business will result in payment of principal upon an acceleration of the bonds being made as funds become available. Please read &#147;Risk Factors&#151;Risk Associated with the Unusual Nature of the Securitization Property&#151;Foreclosure of the trustee&#146;s lien on the securitization property for the securitization bonds might not be practical, and acceleration of the securitization bonds before maturity might have little practical effect&#148; and &#147;Risk Factors&#151;Risk Associated with Limited Source of Funds&#151;You may experience material payment delays or incur a loss on your investment in the securitization bonds because the source of funds for payment is limited&#148; in the accompanying prospectus. If there is a shortfall in the amounts available to make principal payments on the bonds that are due and payable, including upon an acceleration following an event of default, the trustee will distribute principal from the collection account pro rata to each tranche of bonds based on the principal amount then due and payable on the payment date.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Weighted average life refers to the average amount of time from the date of issuance of a security until each dollar of principal of the security has been repaid to the investor. The rate of principal payments on each tranche of bonds, the aggregate amount of each interest payment on each tranche of bonds and the actual final payment date of each tranche of bonds will depend on the timing of the servicer&#146;s receipt of securitization charges from covered electric customers. Please read &#147;Weighted Average Life and Yield Considerations for the Securitization Bonds&#148; in the accompanying prospectus for further information. Changes in the expected weighted average lives of the tranches of the bonds in relation to variances in actual energy consumption levels (electric sales) from forecast levels are shown below.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 and the financing order mandate that securitization charges on covered electric customers be reviewed and adjusted by the MPSC at least annually to correct any overcollections or undercollections of the preceding 12 months and to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. In addition, the financing order provides that true-up adjustments are required on a semi-annual basis (or, one year prior to the last scheduled final payment date for the latest maturing tranche, on a quarterly basis) if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. True-up adjustments may also be made by the servicer more frequently at any time, without limits as to frequency, if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. The financing order permits mid-year true-up adjustments to be implemented immediately without additional MPSC approval if the proposed true-up adjustment is not opposed. In the financing order, the MPSC affirms that it will act pursuant to the financing order to ensure that expected securitization charges are sufficient to pay on a timely basis all scheduled principal of and interest on the bonds and ongoing other qualified costs in connection with the securitization bonds.</font></p>

Through the true-up mechanism, which adjusts for undercollections of securitization charges due to any reason, covered electric customers share in the liabilities of all other covered electric customers for the payment of securitization charges.</font></p>

Overallotment transactions involve syndicate sales in excess of the offering size, which create a syndicate short position. Stabilizing transactions are bids to purchase the bonds, which are permitted, so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specific maximum price. Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the bonds in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the 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 bonds to be higher than they would otherwise be. None of we, Consumers Energy, the trustee, our managers or any of the underwriters represents that the underwriters will engage in any of these transactions or that these transactions, if commenced, will not be discontinued without notice at any time.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We, the issuing entity, will issue the Senior Secured Securitization Bonds, Series&nbsp;2014A (referred to in this prospectus as the <b>bonds</b>) in one or more tranches as described in this prospectus. The bonds are senior secured obligations of the issuing entity supported by the securitization property, described in this prospectus and the related prospectus supplement, which includes the right to a special, irrevocable nonbypassable charge, known as a <b>securitization charge</b>, paid by Michigan retail electric distribution customers of Consumers Energy (or any successor) based on their electricity usage as discussed in this prospectus and the related prospectus supplement. Act 142 (defined in this prospectus) mandates that securitization charges be adjusted at least annually, and the Michigan Public Service Commission, or the <b>MPSC</b>, further permits true-up adjustments to occur semi-annually (and in certain circumstances quarterly or more frequently) if necessary, in each case to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds, as described further in this prospectus and the related prospectus supplement. Credit enhancement for the bonds will be provided by these true-up adjustments as well as by accounts held under the indenture described in this prospectus and the related prospectus supplement. The bonds represent only our obligations and are backed only by our assets. Consumers Energy Company and its affiliates, other than us, are not liable for any payments on the bonds. The bonds are not a debt or obligation of the State of Michigan and are not a charge on its full faith and credit or taxing power.</font></p>

The   amount and terms for collections of these securitization charges are governed   by one or more financing orders issued to an electric utility by the MPSC.   Act 142 permits an electric utility to transfer its rights and interests   under a financing order, including the right to impose, collect and receive   securitization charges, to a special purpose entity formed by the electric   utility to issue securitization bonds secured by the right to receive   revenues arising from the securitization charges.

The financing order   applicable to the bonds, which was issued by the MPSC on December&nbsp;6,   2013, is further described below.

Securitization property includes the right to impose, collect, receive and adjust securitization charges in amounts sufficient to pay principal and interest and to replenish the <b>capital subaccount</b> (as defined under &#147;Glossary of Defined Terms&#148;) in connection with the bonds and to pay <b>ongoing other qualified costs</b> (as defined under &#147;Glossary of Defined Terms&#148;). Securitization charges are payable by all covered electric customers in an amount necessary to provide the full recovery of all qualified costs, including debt service. Under the financing order, the customers responsible for paying securitization charges consist of all of Consumers Energy&#146;s covered electric customers. Covered electric customers who subsequently receive electric delivery service from a successor to Consumers Energy pursuant to bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding or any merger, acquisition, sale or transfer must pay the securitization charge. Covered electric customers do not include (i)&nbsp;current choice customers, (ii)&nbsp;customers to the extent they obtain or use self-service power or (iii)&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">customers to the extent engaged in affiliate wheeling. During the twelve months ended December&nbsp;31, 2013, approximately 39% of Consumers Energy&#146;s total electric usage (as measured by billed gigawatt-hour, or <b>GWh</b>, sales) in the State of Michigan was to residential customers, approximately 23% was to secondary customers and approximately 37% was to primary customers.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Neither the securitization property nor the other collateral securing the bonds is or will be a static pool of assets. The securitization charges are irrevocable and not subject to reduction, impairment, postponement, termination or adjustment by further action of the MPSC, except for annual, semi-annual (or, one year prior to the last scheduled final payment date for the latest maturing tranche, quarterly) and interim true-up adjustments to correct overcollections or undercollections of the preceding 12 months and to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. Please read &#147;The Servicing Agreement&#151;True-Up Adjustment Process&#148;. All revenues and collections resulting from the securitization charges are part of the securitization property.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Because the amount of securitization charge collections will depend on the amount of electricity consumed by covered electric customers within Consumers Energy&#146;s <b>service territory</b> (as defined under &#147;Glossary of Defined Terms&#148;), the amount of collections may vary substantially from year to year.

In addition, the financing order provides that adjustments are required on a semi-annual basis (or, one year prior to the last scheduled final payment date for the latest maturing tranche, on a quarterly basis) if the servicer determines that an adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. Adjustments may also be made by the servicer more frequently at any time, without limits as to frequency, if the servicer determines that an adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. The financing order permits mid-year adjustments to be implemented immediately without additional MPSC approval if the proposed adjustment is not opposed. We sometimes refer to these adjustments as the <b>true-up adjustments</b> and the process for making such adjustments as the <b>true-up mechanism</b>.

The time for challenging Act 142 through a referendum has expired, but the right of voters in Michigan to enact laws by initiative can be exercised at any time, provided a prescribed process is followed and successfully concluded. Constitutional protections against actions that violate the pledge of the State of Michigan should apply whether legislation is passed by the Michigan legislature or is brought about by a voter initiative.</font></p>

If a successor servicer that is not an affiliate of Consumers Energy is appointed, the servicing fee will be negotiated by the successor servicer and the trustee, but will not exceed 0.75% of the original principal amount of the bonds on an annualized basis.

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The securitization property securing the bonds is the creation of Act 142 and the financing order that has been issued by the MPSC to Consumers Energy. 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. Because the securitization property is a creation of Act 142, any judicial determination affecting the validity of or interpreting Act 142, the securitization property or our ability to make payments on the bonds might have an adverse effect on the bonds. A federal or state court could be asked in the future to determine whether the relevant provisions of Act 142 are unlawful or invalid. If Act 142 is invalidated, the financing order might also be invalidated.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Other states have passed legislation similar to Act 142 to authorize recoveries by utilities of specified costs, such as environmental control costs, hurricane recovery costs, or costs associated with deregulation of the electricity market, and some of those laws have been challenged by judicial actions or utility commission proceedings. To date, none of those challenges has succeeded, but future judicial challenges might be made. An unfavorable decision regarding another state&#146;s law would not automatically invalidate Act 142 or the financing order, but it might provoke a challenge to Act 142, establish a legal precedent for a successful challenge to Act 142 or heighten awareness of the political and other risks of the bonds, and in that way may limit the liquidity and value of the bonds. Therefore, legal activity in other states may indirectly affect the value of your investment in the bonds.</font></p>

For a description of the pledge of the State of Michigan, please read &#147;Act 142&#151;Electric Utilities May&nbsp;Securitize Qualified Costs&#151;State Pledge&#148;. It might be possible for the Michigan legislature to repeal or amend Act 142 notwithstanding the pledge of the State of Michigan if the legislature acts in order to serve a significant and legitimate public purpose. Any of these actions, as well as the costly and time-consuming litigation that likely would ensue, might adversely affect the price and liquidity of, the dates of payment of interest on and principal of, and the weighted average lives of, the 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 bonds.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If an action of the Michigan legislature adversely affecting the securitization property or the ability to collect securitization charges were considered a taking under the United States or Michigan Constitutions, the State of Michigan might be obligated to pay compensation for 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 bonds or to offset interest lost pending that recovery.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under the Michigan Constitution, the Michigan electorate has the power of initiative, which gives the electorate the ability to propose laws and to enact and repeal laws that the legislature has the power otherwise to enact. Among other requirements, qualifying an initiative for an election requires petitions signed by registered electors constituting at least 8% of the total votes cast for governor at the immediately preceding general election at which a governor was elected. An initiative proposal that is not subsequently approved by the legislature will become effective only if it is approved by a majority of the electors voting at the next general election. As of the date of this prospectus, no voter initiative or petition affecting the securitization bonds was pending or certified, and Consumers Energy is unaware of any efforts to circulate petitions for action.</font></p>

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 Michigan or the MPSC may be sued.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Federal preemption of Act 142 could prevent bondholders from receiving payments on the bonds. In the past, bills have been introduced in Congress to prohibit the recovery of charges similar to the securitization charges, although Congress has not enacted any law to that effect. As of the date of this prospectus, we are not aware of the House or the Senate, or any of their committees having primary relevant jurisdiction, having considered legislation that would prohibit the recovery of charges similar to the securitization charges. However, we can give no assurances that Congress may not do so in the future. Enactment of a federal law prohibiting the recovery of charges similar to the securitization charges might have the effect of preempting Act 142 and thereby prohibiting the recovery of the securitization charges, which would cause delays and losses on payments on the bonds.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We can give no assurances that a court would consider the preemption by federal law of Act 142 to be a taking of property from us or the bondholders under the U.S. Constitution or under the Constitution of the State of Michigan. Moreover, even if this preemption of Act 142 by the federal government were considered a taking under the U.S. Constitution or under the Constitution of the State of Michigan for which the federal government had to pay just compensation, we can give no assurance that this compensation would be sufficient to pay the full amount of principal of and interest on the bonds or to pay those amounts on a timely basis.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 provides that a financing order together with the securitization charges authorized in the financing order are irrevocable and that the MPSC may not impair, reduce or alter, except for the true-up adjustments, the securitization charges authorized under a financing order. However, the MPSC retains the power to adopt, revise or rescind rules&nbsp;or regulations affecting Consumers Energy. The MPSC also retains the power to interpret the financing order granted to Consumers Energy, and in that capacity might be called upon to rule&nbsp;on the meanings of provisions of the financing order that might need further elaboration. Any new or amended regulations or orders from the MPSC might attempt to affect the ability of the servicer to collect the securitization charges in full and on a timely basis, affecting the amortization of the bonds and their weighted average lives, and, accordingly, the rating of the bonds or their price. However, in the financing order, the MPSC reaffirmed that it shall not reduce, impair, postpone, terminate or otherwise adjust the securitization charges approved in the financing order or impair the securitization property or the collection of securitization charges or the recovery of the qualified costs and ongoing other qualified costs and that it will act pursuant to the financing order to ensure that the expected securitization</font></p>

True-up adjustment procedures may be challenged in the future. Challenges to or delays in the true-up adjustment process might adversely affect the market perception and valuation of the bonds.

If the servicer inaccurately forecasts either electricity usage or customer delinquency or charge-offs when setting or adjusting the securitization charges, there could be a shortfall or material delay in securitization charge collections, which might result in missed or delayed payments of principal and interest and lengthened weighted average life of the bonds.

The trustee&#146;s receipt of collections in respect of the securitization charges, which will be used to make payments on bonds, will depend in part on the skill and diligence of the servicer in performing these functions. The systems that the servicer has in place for securitization charge billings, collections and postings, as the same may be modified by any applicable current or future MPSC regulations, might, in particular circumstances, cause the servicer to experience difficulty in performing these functions in a timely and completely accurate manner.

Also, any successor servicer might have less experience and ability than Consumers Energy and might experience difficulties in collecting securitization charges and determining appropriate adjustments to the securitization charges and billing and/or payment arrangements may change, resulting in delays or disruptions of collections. A successor servicer might not be willing to perform except for fees higher than those approved in the financing order and might charge fees that, while permitted under the financing order, are substantially higher than the fees paid to Consumers Energy as servicer. Although a true-up adjustment would be required to allow for the increase in fees, there could be a gap between the incurrence of those fees and the implementation of a true-up adjustment to adjust for that increase that might adversely affect distributions to bondholders. In the event of the commencement of a case by or against the servicer under Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, or the <b>Bankruptcy Code</b>, 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 might delay the timing of payments and reduce the value of your investment.</font></p>

In addition, Consumers Energy has sold certain securitization property (which is separate from the securitization property described in this prospectus and the prospectus supplement) to the 2001-1 securitization bond issuer. Under the intercreditor agreement to be entered into at the time of issuance of the bonds among Consumers Energy, the issuing entity, the trustee, the parties to Consumers Energy&#146;s accounts receivable sale program, the 2001-1 securitization bond issuer and the trustee for the 2001-1 securitization bonds, replacement of the servicer would require the agreement of the trustee, the trustee for the 2001-1 securitization bonds and the administrative agent under the accounts receivable sale program. In the event of a default by the servicer under the servicing agreement, if the trustee, the trustee for the 2001-1 securitization bonds and the administrative agent under the accounts receivable sale program are unable to agree on a replacement servicer, the trustee would not be able to replace Consumers Energy or any successor as servicer. Any of these events could adversely affect the billing, collection and posting of the securitization charges and the value of your investment in the securitization bonds. See &#147;The Servicing Agreement&#151;Intercreditor Agreement&#148;.</font></p>

Consumers Energy has covenanted in the sale agreement that, in the event of any issuance of that sort, it will also enter into an intercreditor agreement with the trustee and the trustees for those other issuances, which would provide that the servicer for the bonds and those other issuances must be one and the same entity. Any expansion of the intercreditor agreement to include those subsequent issuances could further impair the ability of the bondholders to appoint a successor servicer in the event of a servicer default.</font></p>

However, subject to any required MPSC approval, the servicer may set its own billing, collection and posting arrangements with covered electric customers from whom it collects securitization charges, provided that these arrangements comply with any applicable MPSC customer safeguards and the provisions of the servicing agreement. For example, to recover part of an outstanding bill, the servicer may agree to extend a covered electric customer&#146;s payment schedule or to write off the remaining portion of the bill, including the securitization charges. Also, subject to any required MPSC approval, the servicer may change billing, collection and posting practices, which might adversely impact the timing and amount of covered electric customer payments and might reduce securitization charge collections, thereby limiting our ability to make scheduled payments on the bonds. Separately, the MPSC might require changes to these practices. Any changes in billing, collection and posting practices or regulations might make it more difficult for the servicer to collect the securitization charges and adversely affect the value of your investment in the bonds.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The covered electric customers who pay securitization charges are divided into separate securitization rate classes. Securitization charges for the bonds will be allocated among securitization rate classes in accordance with the 4CP 50/25/25 production cost allocation methodology, as required by the MPSC and approved in Case No. U-17087. This methodology allocates 50% of charges based upon each rate class&#146; average contribution to summer system peak demands, 25% of charges based upon each rate class&#146; average contribution to on-peak energy consumption and 25% of charges based upon each rate class&#146; contribution to total energy consumption. Average rate class contribution levels reflect the most recent available three year historical load profiles, applied to the most recent sales forecast. Any shortfall in collections from any securitization rate class will be included in the true-up mechanism and collected from all covered electric customers subject to the securitization charge. The percentage allocation of cost to any particular securitization rate class may change to reflect changing average contribution levels relative to system levels. If enough covered electric customers in a securitization rate class fail to pay securitization charges or cease to be covered electric customers, the servicer might have to substantially increase the securitization charges for the remaining covered electric customers. Other factors, such as economic conditions, could lead to non-residential customers reducing their usage of electricity or to abandon operation of their facilities. The inability to impose, collect and receive securitization charges from those covered electric customers could lead to increases in securitization charges for the remaining covered electric customers. These increases could lead to further unanticipated failures by the remaining covered electric customers to pay securitization charges, thereby increasing the risk of a shortfall in funds to pay the bonds. Please see &#147;Consumers Energy&#146;s Financing Order&#151;True-up Mechanism&#148; for more detail.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under Act 142 and the indenture, the trustee or the bondholders have the right to foreclose or otherwise enforce the lien on the securitization property securing the bonds. However, in the event of foreclosure, there is likely to be a limited market, if any, for the securitization property. Therefore, foreclosure might not be a realistic or practical remedy. Moreover, although principal of the bonds will be due and payable upon acceleration of the bonds before maturity, securitization charges likely would not be accelerated and the nature of our business will result in principal of the bonds being paid as funds become available. If there is an acceleration of the bonds, all tranches of the bonds will be paid pro rata; therefore, some tranches might be paid earlier than expected and some tranches might be paid later than expected.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 provides that the priority of a lien and security interest perfected in securitization property is not impaired by the commingling of the funds arising from securitization charges with other funds. In a bankruptcy of the servicer, however, a bankruptcy court might rule that federal bankruptcy law takes precedence over Act 142 and might decline to recognize our right to collections of the securitization charges that are commingled with other funds of the servicer as of the date of bankruptcy. If so, the collections of the securitization charges held by the servicer as of the date of bankruptcy would not be available to pay amounts owing on the bonds. In this case, we would have only a general unsecured claim against the servicer for those amounts.

However, a bankruptcy court does not follow state law if it determines that the state law is contrary to a paramount federal bankruptcy policy or interest. If a bankruptcy court in a Consumers Energy bankruptcy refused to enforce one or more of the state property law provisions described above, the effect of this decision on you as a beneficial owner of the bonds might be similar to the treatment you would receive in a Consumers Energy bankruptcy if the bonds had been issued directly by Consumers Energy. A decision by the bankruptcy court that, despite our separateness from Consumers Energy, our assets and liabilities and those of Consumers Energy should be consolidated would have a similar effect on you as a bondholder.</font></p>

Nonetheless, these steps might not be completely effective, and thus if the seller or an affiliate of the seller were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case, a court might order that our assets and liabilities be consolidated with those of the seller or an affiliate of the seller. This might cause material delays in payment of, or losses on, your bonds and might materially reduce the value of your investment in the bonds. For example:</font></p>

The failure of the servicer to perform its duties or the inability to find a successor servicer might cause payment delays or losses on your investment in the bonds.

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 provides that an agreement by an electric utility to transfer securitization property that expressly states that the transfer is a sale or other absolute transfer signifies that the transaction is a true sale and is not a secured transaction and that title, legal and equitable, has passed to the entity to which the securitization property is transferred and that a true sale applies regardless of, among other things, the treatment of the transfer as a financing for tax, financial reporting or other purposes. We and Consumers Energy will treat the transaction as a sale under applicable law, although for financial reporting and federal and state income tax purposes the transaction will be treated as a financing. In the event of a bankruptcy of Consumers Energy, a party in interest in the bankruptcy might assert that the sale of the securitization property to us was a financing transaction and not a sale or other absolute transfer 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 Consumers Energy in the bankruptcy proceedings, although a court might determine that we only have an unsecured claim against Consumers Energy. Even if we had a security interest in the securitization property (which the sale agreement purports to provide in the event sale treatment is disallowed), we would not likely have access to the related securitization 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 under &#147;&#151;The bankruptcy of Consumers Energy or any successor seller might result in losses or delays in payments on the securitization bonds&#148;. As a result, repayment of the 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 related securitization charge collections and therefore the amount and timing of funds available to us to pay bondholders.</font></p>

If a court were to hold that the remittance of funds constitutes a preference, any remittance of that sort within 90 days of the filing of the bankruptcy petition (or within one year if the remittance was on account of antecedent debt owed to us as opposed to the bondholders) could be avoidable, and the funds could be required to be returned to the bankruptcy estate of the servicer. To the extent that securitization charges have been commingled with the general funds of the servicer prior to the transfer of funds to the trustee, the risk that a court would hold that a remittance of funds was a preference would increase. 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 securitization charges would be increased through the true-up mechanism to recover that amount.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If the seller were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case, claims, including indemnity claims, by us against the seller under the sale agreement and the other documents executed in connection with the sale agreement would be unsecured claims and would be adjudicated in the bankruptcy case. In addition, the bankruptcy court might estimate any contingent claims that we have against the seller and, if it determines that the contingency giving rise to these claims is unlikely to occur, estimate the claims at a lower amount. A party in interest in the bankruptcy of the seller might challenge the enforceability of the indemnity provisions in a sale agreement. If a court were to hold that the indemnity provisions were unenforceable, we would be left with a claim for actual damages against the seller based on breach of contract principles, which would be subject to estimation and/or calculation by the court. We cannot give any assurance as to the result if any of the above-described actions or claims were made. Furthermore, we cannot give any assurance as to what percentage of their claims, if any, unsecured creditors would receive in any bankruptcy proceeding involving the seller.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If an event of default is caused by the electric utility or its successors in paying revenues arising with respect to securitization property to the collection account, Act 142 provides that the MPSC or a court of appropriate jurisdiction, upon the application of a financing party, including the trustee, and without limiting any other remedies available to the financing party, including the trustee, shall order the sequestration and payment to the financing party, including the trustee, of revenues arising with respect to the securitization property. Act 142 further provides that the order shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceedings with respect to the debtor, pledgor or transferor of the property. There can be no assurance, however, that a court or the MPSC would issue this order after a Consumers Energy bankruptcy in light of the automatic stay provisions of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code. In that event, the trustee would be required to seek an order from the bankruptcy court lifting the automatic stay to permit this action by the MPSC or court of appropriate jurisdiction and an order requiring an accounting and segregation of the revenues arising from the securitization property. There can be no assurance that a court would grant either order.</font></p>

Similarly, Consumers Energy is obligated under the servicing agreement to indemnify us and the trustee, for itself and on behalf of the bondholders.

Furthermore, Consumers Energy might not have sufficient funds available to satisfy its indemnification obligations under the basic documents, and the amount of any indemnification paid by Consumers Energy might not be sufficient to pay all obligations and/or costs owed by us or for you to recover all of your investment in the bonds. In addition, if Consumers Energy becomes obligated to indemnify bondholders, the then-current ratings on the bonds will likely be downgraded as a result of the circumstances causing the breach and the fact that bondholders will be unsecured creditors of Consumers Energy with respect to any of these indemnification amounts.</font></p>

Moreover, an increase in self-service power may result if extreme weather conditions result in shortages of grid-supplied energy or if other factors cause grid-supplied energy to be less reliable. These developments may result in greater numbers of covered electric customers reducing or eliminating their payment of securitization charges, thereby causing securitization charges to the remaining covered electric customers to increase.</font></p>

A rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold the bonds. The ratings merely analyze the probability that we will repay the total principal amount of the bonds at the final maturity date (which is later than the scheduled final payment date) and will make timely interest payments. The ratings are not an indication that the <b>rating agencies</b> (as defined under &#147;Glossary of Defined Terms&#148;) believe that principal payments are likely to be paid on time according to the expected sinking fund schedule.</font></p>

As a result, an NRSRO other than the NRSROs hired by the sponsor (the <b>hired NRSROs</b>) may issue ratings on the bonds (<b>unsolicited ratings</b>), 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 issuance date in respect of the bonds. Issuance of any unsolicited rating will not affect the issuance of the bonds. Issuance of an unsolicited rating lower than the ratings assigned by the hired NRSROs on the bonds might adversely affect the value of the bonds and, for regulated entities, could affect the status of the bonds as a legal investment or the capital treatment of the bonds. Investors in the bonds should consult with their legal counsel regarding the effect of the issuance of a rating by a non-hired NRSRO that is lower than the rating of a hired NRSRO. None of Consumers Energy, us, the underwriters or any of their affiliates will have any obligation to inform you of any unsolicited ratings assigned after the date of this prospectus. In addition, if we or Consumers Energy fail to make available to a non-hired NRSRO any information provided to any hired NRSRO for the purpose of assigning or monitoring the ratings on the bonds, a hired NRSRO could withdraw its ratings on the bonds, which could adversely affect the market value of your bonds and/or limit your ability to resell your bonds.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The amount and the rate of collection of the securitization charges for the bonds, together with the related securitization charge adjustments, will generally determine whether there is a delay in the scheduled repayments of bond principal. If the servicer collects the securitization charges at a slower rate than expected, it might have to request adjustments of the securitization charges to correct for those delays. If those adjustments are not timely and accurate, you might experience a delay in payments of principal and interest and a decrease in the value of your investment in the bonds.</font></p>

Consumers Energy has also covenanted in the sale agreement that, in the event of any sale, it will have also entered into an intercreditor agreement with the trustee and the trustees for those other issuances, which would provide that the servicer for the bonds and those other issuances must be one and the same entity. In the event a covered electric customer does not pay in full all amounts owed under any bill, including securitization charges, Consumers Energy, as servicer, is required to allocate any resulting shortfalls in securitization charges ratably based on the amounts of securitization charges owing in respect of the bonds, and the total amounts owed by that covered electric customer. However, we cannot assure you that a new sale would not cause reductions or delays in payment of your bonds.</font></p>

The European Union Capital Requirements Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 575/2013) restricts a credit institution and investment firm regulated in a Member State of the European Economic Area and its consolidated group affiliates from investing in a securitization (as defined by the European Union Capital Requirements Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 575/2013)) unless the originator, sponsor or original lender in respect of that securitization has explicitly disclosed to the credit institution and investment firm regulated in a Member State of the European Economic Area and its consolidated group affiliates that it will retain, on an ongoing basis, a material net economic interest of not less than 5% in that securitization in the manner contemplated by Article 405 of the European Union Capital Requirements Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 575/2013). The European Union Capital Requirements Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 575/2013) also requires that a credit institution and investment firm regulated in a Member State of the European Economic Area and its consolidated group affiliates be able to demonstrate that they have undertaken certain due diligence in respect of, among other things, the bonds they have acquired and the underlying exposures and that procedures have been established for monitoring the performance of the underlying exposures on an ongoing basis. Failure to comply with one or more of the requirements set out in the European Union Capital Requirements Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 575/2013) may result in the imposition of a penal capital charge with respect to the investment made in the securitization by a credit institution and investment firm regulated in a Member State of the European Economic Area and its consolidated group affiliates.</font></p>

As required by these rules, the review was designed and effected to provide reasonable assurance that disclosure regarding the securitization property is accurate in all material respects. Consumers Energy did not engage a third party in conducting its review.</font></p>

The principal asset of the indenture&#146;s trust estate is the securitization property relating to the bonds. The securitization property is a present property right authorized and created pursuant to Act 142 and the financing order. The securitization property includes the right to impose, collect and receive nonbypassable irrevocable securitization charges in amounts necessary to provide the full recovery of all qualified costs, the right under the financing order to obtain periodic adjustments of securitization charges under Act 142 and all revenue, collections, payments, money and proceeds arising out of the rights and interests in such property. The securitization charges are payable by covered electric customers. Under the financing order, all covered electric customers are responsible for paying securitization charges. Covered electric customers do not include (i) current choice customers, (ii) customers to the extent they obtain or use self-service power or (iii) customers to the extent engaged in affiliate wheeling.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The securitization property is not a static pool of assets. Securitization charges that relate to the securitization property are irrevocable and not subject to reduction, impairment, postponement, termination or, except for the specified true-up adjustments to correct any overcollections or undercollections, adjustment by further action of the MPSC. Securitization charges on covered electric customers will be adjusted at least annually to correct any overcollections or undercollections of the preceding 12 months and to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. Securitization charges will be adjusted semi-annually (or, one year prior to the last scheduled final payment date for the latest maturing tranche, quarterly) if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is needed to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. True-up adjustments to securitization charges may also be made by the servicer more frequently at any time, without limits as to frequency, if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is needed to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. There is no cap on the level of securitization charges that may be imposed on covered electric customers as a result of the true-up adjustment process to pay on a timely basis scheduled principal of and interest on the bonds and ongoing other qualified costs. All revenues and collections resulting from securitization charges provided for in the financing order are part of the securitization property. The securitization property relating to the bonds is described in more detail under &#147;Description of the Securitization Property&#148; in this prospectus.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The characteristics of securitization property are unlike the characteristics of assets underlying mortgage and other commercial asset securitizations because securitization property is a creature of statute and state regulatory commission proceedings. Because the nature and characteristics of the securitization property and many elements of the bond securitization are set forth in and constrained by Act 142, Consumers Energy, as sponsor, does not select the assets to be securitized in ways common to many securitizations. Moreover, the 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 financing order requires the imposition on, and collection of securitization charges from, existing and future covered electric customers. Since the securitization charges are assessed against all such covered electric customers and the true-up mechanism adjusts for the impact </font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The review by Consumers Energy of the securitization property underlying the bonds has involved a number of discrete steps and elements as described in more detail below. First, Consumers Energy has analyzed and applied Act 142&#146;s requirements for securitization of qualified costs in seeking approval of the MPSC for the issuance of the financing order and in its proposal with respect to the characteristics of the securitization property to be created pursuant to the financing order. In preparing this proposal, Consumers Energy worked with its counsel and its financial advisor in preparing the application for a financing order and with the MPSC on the terms of the financing order. Moreover, Consumers Energy worked with its counsel, its financial advisor and counsel to the financial advisor and the underwriters in preparing the legal agreements that provide for the terms of the bonds and the security for the bonds. Consumers Energy has analyzed economic issues and practical issues for the scheduled payment of the bonds, including the impact of economic factors, potential for disruptions due to weather or catastrophic events and its own forecasts for covered electric customer growth as well as the historic accuracy of its prior forecasts.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 authorizes the MPSC to issue financing orders (such as the financing order described in this prospectus) approving, among other things, the issuance of securitization bonds to recover the qualified costs of an electric utility. An electric utility, its successor or an assignee under the financing order may issue securitization bonds, and that successor or assignee may use the proceeds to purchase the electric utility&#146;s rights and interests under the financing order, which is the securitization property. Under Act 142, proceeds of securitization bonds are required to be used solely to refinance or retire an electric utility&#146;s debt or equity. Securitization bonds are secured by and payable from the securitization property (rights and interests of the electric utility, or its successor, under the financing order, including the right to impose, collect and receive securitization charges authorized in the financing order in an amount necessary to provide the full recovery of all qualified costs, the right under the financing order to obtain periodic adjustments of securitization charges under Act 142 and all revenue, collections, payments, money and proceeds arising out of the rights and interests in such property). Securitization charges may be billed over a period not to exceed 15 years.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 provides that a financing order, together with the securitization charges authorized in the financing order, are irrevocable, subject to rehearing by the MPSC only on the motion of the electric utility. Notwithstanding its irrevocability, a party to the MPSC proceeding may appeal a financing order to the Michigan court of appeals within 30 days after the financing order is issued by the MPSC.

Act 142 provides that a transfer of an interest in securitization property shall be perfected against all third parties, including subsequent judicial and other lien creditors, when a financing statement with respect to the transfer has been filed in accordance with the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code.</font></p>

A security interest in securitization property attaches automatically from the time that value is received for the securitization bonds and is perfected upon the filing of a financing statement under the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code, whether or not the revenue or proceeds thereof have accrued. Act 142 provides that priority of security interests in securitization property will not be impaired by commingling of funds arising from securitization charges with other funds or later modification of the financing order.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">To date, no U.S. federal or Michigan cases addressing the repeal or amendment of securitization provisions analogous to those contained in Act 142 have been decided. There have been cases in which U.S. federal courts have applied the Contract Clause of the United States constitution or Michigan courts have applied the Contract Clause of the Michigan constitution to strike down legislation regarding similar matters, such as legislation reducing or eliminating taxes, public charges or other sources of revenues servicing other types of bonds issued or contracts entered into by public instrumentalities or private issuers, or otherwise substantially impairing or eliminating the security for bonds or other indebtedness or contractual obligations. Based upon this case law, Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP expects to deliver an opinion, prior to the closing of the offering of the bonds, to the effect that a federal district court of competent jurisdiction, in a properly prepared and presented case, (i)&nbsp;would hold that the language of the State of Michigan&#146;s pledge creates a contractual relationship between the State of Michigan and the bondholders for purposes of the Contract Clause of the United States constitution and (ii)&nbsp;would hold that, absent a demonstration by the State of Michigan that a limit, alteration, impairment or reduction of the type described below is justified by a significant and legitimate public purpose and that such a limit, alteration, impairment or reduction is reasonable and necessary, the bondholders (or the trustee acting on their behalf) would be successful in a federal court in challenging under the Contract Clause of the United States constitution the constitutionality of any legislation passed by the Michigan legislature that becomes law or any action of the MPSC exercising legislative powers prior to the time that the securitization bonds and related financing costs are fully paid and discharged that in either case limits, alters, impairs or reduces the value of the securitization property or the securitization charges. Based upon this case law, Miller Canfield Paddock and Stone, P.L.C. expects to deliver an opinion substantially to the same effect under the contract clause of the Michigan constitution. It may be possible for the Michigan legislature to repeal or amend Act 142 or for the MPSC to amend or revoke the financing order notwithstanding the pledge of the State of Michigan, if the legislature or the MPSC acts in order to serve a significant and legitimate public purpose, such as protecting the public health and safety or responding to a national or regional catastrophe affecting Consumers Energy&#146;s service territory, or if the legislature otherwise acts in the valid exercise of the State of Michigan&#146;s police power. We will file a copy of each of the Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP and Miller Canfield Paddock and Stone, P.L.C. opinions as exhibits to an amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or to one of our periodic or current filings with the SEC.</font></p>

Each of Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP and Miller Canfield Paddock and Stone, P.L.C. has advised us that they are not aware of any U.S. federal or Michigan court cases addressing the applicability of the Takings Clause of the United States constitution or Michigan constitution in a situation analogous to that which would be involved in an amendment or repeal of Act 142. 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 Act 142, since, for example, a court might determine that a Contract Clause analysis rather than a Takings Clause analysis should be applied. Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP expects to deliver an opinion, prior to the closing of the offering of the bonds, to the effect that a federal district court of competent jurisdiction, in a properly prepared and presented case, would hold that the Takings Clause of the United States constitution would require the State of Michigan to pay just compensation to the bondholders if the court determines that the State of Michigan&#146;s repeal or amendment of Act 142, or any other action taken by the State of Michigan in contravention of the State of Michigan&#146;s pledge, completely deprived the bondholders of all economically beneficial use of the securitization property or unduly interfered with the reasonable expectations of the bondholders arising from their investment in the bonds.

In addition, Miller Canfield Paddock and Stone, P.L.C. expects to deliver an opinion substantially to the same effect under the takings clause of the Michigan constitution. In examining whether action of the Michigan legislature amounts to a regulatory taking, both U.S. federal and state courts will consider the character of the governmental action and whether such action substantially advances the legitimate governmental interests of the State of Michigan, the economic impact of the governmental action on the bondholders and the extent to which the governmental action interferes with distinct investment-backed expectations. There is no assurance, however, that, even if a court were to award just compensation, it would be sufficient for you to recover fully your investment in the bonds.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On September&nbsp;9, 2013, Consumers Energy filed an application with the MPSC for a financing order pursuant to Act 142 in MPSC Docket No.&nbsp;U-17473. In its application, Consumers Energy requested that it be given the authority, among other things, to securitize, through the issuance of securitization bonds, up to $454,300,000 in qualified costs. Under its application, Consumers Energy alone was proposed to be the sole sponsor and seller into the securitization.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In the financing order, the MPSC reaffirmed that it shall not reduce, impair, postpone, terminate or otherwise adjust the securitization charges approved in the financing order or impair the securitization property or the collection of securitization charges or the recovery of the qualified costs and ongoing other qualified costs and that it will act pursuant to the financing order to ensure that the expected securitization charges are sufficient to pay on a timely basis scheduled principal of and interest on the securitization bonds issued pursuant to the financing order and the ongoing other qualified costs in connection with the securitization bonds. Pursuant to the provisions of Act 142 and, by its terms, the financing order, together with the securitization charges authorized by the financing order, are irrevocable and not subject to reduction, impairment or adjustment by further action of the MPSC, except by use of the true-up adjustment procedures approved in the financing order.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The financing order authorizes Consumers Energy to collect securitization charges from the covered electric customers in an amount sufficient to pay on a timely basis scheduled principal of and interest on the bonds and all ongoing other qualified costs in connection with the securitization bonds. There is no cap on the level of securitization charges that may be imposed on covered electric customers to pay on a timely basis scheduled principal of and interest on the bonds and ongoing other qualified costs. The securitization charges related to the securitization bonds shall be billed to each covered electric customer for recovery over a period of not greater than 15 years after the beginning of the first complete billing cycle during which the securitization charges were initially placed on any covered electric customer&#146;s bill. However, Consumers Energy may continue to collect any billed but uncollected securitization charges after the close of this 15-year period. Amounts of the securitization charges remaining unpaid after the close of this 15-year period may be recovered through use of collection activities, including the use of the judicial process.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 provides that the securitization charges are nonbypassable. The financing order provides that securitization charges are payable by all existing and future covered electric customers. Covered electric customers do not include (i)&nbsp;current choice customers, (ii)&nbsp;customers to the extent they obtain or use self-service power or (iii)&nbsp;customers to the extent engaged in affiliate wheeling.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under the terms of the financing order, responsibility for the payment of the securitization charges associated with the bonds is allocated among covered electric customer classes (which we refer to as <b>securitization rate classes</b>) based upon the most recent MPSC-approved production cost allocation methodology (4CP 50/25/25). This methodology allocates 50% of charges to each rate class&#146; average contribution to summer system peak demands, 25% of charges to each rate class&#146; average contribution to on-peak energy consumption and 25% of charges to each rate class&#146; contribution to total energy consumption. Average rate class contribution levels reflect the most recent available three year historical load profiles, applied to the most recent sales forecast. Under the financing order, each securitization rate class is allocated a percentage responsibility for the payment of the bonds and related costs. The securitization charge shall be a uniform per kilowatt-hour, or <b>kWh</b>, surcharge within each class. The initial percentage allocations are shown below under &#147;Description of the Securitization Property&#151;Securitization Rate Classes&#148;.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The financing order authorizes adjustments to securitization charges to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. There is no cap on the level of securitization charges that may be imposed on covered electric customers as a result of the true-up adjustment process.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 and the financing order mandate that securitization charges on covered electric customers be reviewed and adjusted by the MPSC at least annually to correct any overcollections or undercollections of the preceding 12 months and to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. In addition, the financing order provides that true-up adjustments are required on a semi-annual basis (or, one year prior to the last scheduled final payment date for the latest maturing tranche, on a quarterly basis) if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. True-up adjustments may also be made by the servicer more frequently at any time, without limits as to frequency, if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. The financing order permits mid-year true-up adjustments to be implemented immediately without additional MPSC approval if the proposed true-up adjustment is not opposed.</font></p>

In the financing order, the MPSC reaffirmed that it shall not reduce, impair, postpone, terminate or otherwise adjust the securitization charges approved in the financing order or impair the securitization property or the collection of securitization charges or the recovery of the qualified costs and ongoing other qualified costs and that it will act pursuant to the financing order to ensure that the expected securitization charges are sufficient to pay on a timely basis scheduled principal of and interest on the securitization bonds issued pursuant to the financing order and the ongoing other qualified costs in connection with the securitization bonds.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Consumers Energy produces its kilowatt-hour forecast in the first and third quarters of each year, or more frequently when deemed necessary, for planning purposes. These forecasts are the basis for earnings projections as well as capacity/generation planning. The forecast cycle completed during the third quarter each year is typically adopted as Consumers Energy&#146;s official budget. Consumers Energy monitors the accuracy of each forecast by conducting variance analysis at the customer class level on a monthly basis, taking into account abnormal weather impacts on kWh consumption.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Consumers Energy uses econometric models to predict kWh use per covered electric customer and covered electric customer counts for the residential and secondary securitization rate classes. The kWh consumption forecast for these two classes is the product of the kWh use per customer and customer count forecasts. Econometric models are also used to predict the primary securitization rate class kWh consumption. Kilowatt-hour consumptions are estimated for all other customer classes based on current trends and forward-looking assumptions. Weather, in the form of cooling and heating degree days, is used as the primary explanatory driver in the econometric models. Air conditioning equipment saturation, demographics and economic trends are also included as explanatory drivers. The econometric methods used to predict kWh use per customer, customer counts and kWh consumptions are widely used throughout the electric utility industry. Consumers Energy uses current kWh consumption trends and forward-looking assumptions to allocate the kWh and customer count forecasts down to the rate classification level (residential, secondary, primary and streetlighting classes) used in forecasting revenue collections.</font></p>

If an applicant for residential service refuses to provide a Social Security number, drivers&#146; license number or some other acceptable form of identification, service will not be provided. If the covered electric customer has been terminated for nonpayment, a security deposit will generally be required. The residential deposit is set at 1/12th of estimated annual usage. A new applicant for nonresidential service will generally be assessed a security deposit if the applicant has a previous bankruptcy, charge-off or poor payment history. This can be done through providing a security deposit (twice the average estimated monthly electricity bill), furnishing a surety bond and/or a bank letter of credit.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">MPSC regulations and Consumers Energy&#146;s tariff allow certain classes of covered electric customers to elect to be billed on an Equal Payment Plan budget billing program. For Equal Payment Plan covered electric customers, Consumers Energy estimates total service in advance for an equal payment period, typically one year, and bills are rendered monthly on the basis of one eleventh of that estimate (or for payment periods of less than one year, one divided by the number of months in the applicable period). If the charges for actual service during the equal payment period exceed the bills as rendered, the amount of such excess must be paid on or before the due date of the bill covering the last month of the payment period; if the charges for actual service used are less than the amount paid by the Equal Payment Plan covered electric customer, the amount of such overpayment must be refunded to the covered electric customer or credited on the last bill of the equal payment period. For Equal Payment Plan covered electric customers, all refunds and credits will be applied based on the portion of their bills not constituting securitization charges, and therefore no payments of securitization charges will be refunded or credited to these covered electric customers in the event of overpayment.</font></p>

For the year ending December&nbsp;31, 2013, Consumers Energy made available an average of 150,000 electricity bills plus notices of disconnection on each business day to customers in various categories.</font></p>

These options include payment by electronic fund transfers or credit/debit cards through third party providers.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Consumers Energy considers residential customer electricity bills to be delinquent if they are unpaid five days after the bill due date. Consumers Energy considers nonresidential customer electricity bills to be delinquent if they are unpaid five days after the bill due date. In general, Consumers Energy&#146;s collection process begins when balances are unpaid for 27 days or more from the billing date. At that time Consumers Energy begins collection activities, including multiple delinquency notice mailings and telephone calls, and ending with electricity shut-off. Consumers Energy uses collection agencies as needed throughout the collection process.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We will issue the bonds pursuant to the terms of an indenture between us and the trustee specified in the prospectus supplement to finance the purchase by us of the securitization property. The particular terms of the bonds will be described in the indenture and the <b>series supplement</b> (as defined under &#147;Glossary of Defined Terms&#148;). We have summarized below selected provisions of the indenture and the bonds. This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to the terms and provisions of the indenture and series supplement, forms of which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

The bonds may include one or more tranches. Tranches of bonds may differ from each other as to the interest rate, maturity and the timing, sequential order and amount of payments of principal or interest, or both.</font></p>

Neither Consumers Energy nor any of its affiliates will guarantee or insure the bonds. Financing orders authorizing the issuance of securitization bonds do not constitute a pledge of the faith and credit of the State of Michigan or of any of its political subdivisions.

Accordingly, principal of the bonds may be paid later, but not sooner, than reflected in the expected sinking fund schedule, except in the case of an acceleration. The prospectus supplement will set forth the expected sinking fund schedule and expected amortization schedule for the bonds and, if applicable, the tranches thereof. If principal of any tranche is not paid in full on the final maturity date for such tranche, an event or default will occur. On any payment date, unless an event of default has occurred and is continuing and the bonds have been declared due and payable, the trustee will make principal payments on the bonds only until the outstanding principal balances of those bonds have been reduced to the principal balances specified in the applicable expected amortization schedule for that payment date. The trustee will retain in the excess funds subaccount any collections of securitization charges in excess of amounts then due and payable in respect of our obligations and expenses (all as described under &#147;Security for the Securitization Bonds&#151;How Funds in the Collection Account will be Allocated&#148;).</font></p>

Please read &#147;Risk Factors&#151;Other Risks Associated with an Investment in the Securitization Bonds&#148;. The failure to make a scheduled payment of principal on the bonds because there are not sufficient funds in the collection account does not constitute a default or an event of default under the indenture, except for the failure to pay in full the unpaid balance of any tranche upon the final maturity date for such tranche. If an event of default (other than a breach by the State of Michigan of its pledge) has occurred and is continuing, then the trustee or the holders of a majority in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding may declare the bonds to be immediately due and payable, in which event the entire unpaid principal amount of the bonds will become due and payable.

The trustee will make each payment other than the final payment with respect to any bonds to the holders of record of the bonds of the applicable tranche on the record date for that payment date. The trustee will make the final payment for each tranche of bonds, however, only upon presentation and surrender of the bonds of that tranche at the office or agency of the trustee specified in the notice given by the trustee of the final payment. The trustee will mail notice of the final payment to the bondholders no later than five days prior to the final payment date, specifying the date set for the final payment and the amount of the payment.</font></p>

Please read &#147;&#151;Events of Default; Rights Upon Event of Default&#148;. Any interest not paid when due (plus interest on the defaulted interest at the applicable interest rate to the extent lawful) will be payable to the bondholders on a special record date. The special record date will be at least 15 business days prior to the date on which the trustee is to make such special payment (a <b>special payment date</b>). We will fix any special record date and special payment date.

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 bonds in DTC and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC.

Cash received in Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of sales of securities by or through a Clearstream customer or a Euroclear participant to a DTC participant will be received with value on the DTC settlement date but will be available in the relevant Clearstream or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day following settlement in DTC.</font></p>

In addition, bondholders will receive all payments of principal of and interest on the bonds from the trustee through the participants, who in turn will receive them from DTC. Under a book-entry format, bondholders may experience some delay in their receipt of payments because payments will be forwarded by the trustee to Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co., as nominee for DTC. DTC will forward those payments to its participants, who thereafter will forward them to indirect participants or bondholders. It is anticipated that the only bondholder will be Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co., as nominee of DTC. The trustee will not recognize beneficial owners of interest in bonds held by DTC or its nominee as bondholders, as that term is used in the indenture, and such beneficial owners will be permitted to exercise the rights of bondholders only indirectly through the participants, who in turn will exercise the rights of bondholders through DTC.</font></p>

Participants and indirect participants with whom bondholders have accounts with respect to the bonds similarly are required to make book-entry transfers and receive and transmit those payments on behalf of their respective bondholders. Accordingly, although bondholders will not possess bonds, bondholders will receive payments and will be able to transfer their interests.</font></p>

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.

Please read &#147;Risk Factors&#151;Risk Associated with the Unusual Nature of the Securitization Property&#151;Foreclosure of the trustee&#146;s lien on the securitization property for the securitization bonds might not be practical, and acceleration of the securitization bonds before maturity might have little practical effect&#148; and &#147;Risk Factors&#151;Risk Associated with Limited Source of Funds&#151;You may experience material payment delays or incur a loss on your investment in the securitization bonds because the source of funds for payment is limited&#148;. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the bonds may rescind and annul that declaration and its consequences so long as we deposit with the trustee any past due amounts and expenses of the trustee and all events of default, other than the nonpayment caused by acceleration, have been cured. Additionally, the trustee may exercise all of our rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims against the seller or the servicer under or in connection with the sale agreement, the servicing agreement and the administration agreement. If an event of default as specified in the sixth bullet above has occurred, the servicer will be obligated under the servicing agreement to institute (and the trustee, for the benefit of the bondholders, will be entitled and empowered to institute) any suits, actions or proceedings at law, in equity or otherwise, to enforce the pledge of the State of Michigan and to collect any monetary damages as a result of a breach thereof, and each of the servicer and the trustee may prosecute any suit, action or proceeding to final judgment or decree. The servicer will be required to advance its own funds in order to bring any suits, actions or proceedings and, for so long as the legal actions were pending, the servicer will be required, unless otherwise prohibited by applicable law or court or regulatory order in effect at that time, to bill, collect and post the securitization charges, perform adjustments and discharge its obligations under the servicing agreement. The costs of any such action not paid as ongoing other qualified costs would be payable by the seller pursuant to the sale agreement.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 provides that securitization property shall constitute an account as that term is defined under the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code. Act 142 further provides that, notwithstanding the provisions of the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code, the law of the State of Michigan shall govern the perfection and the effect of perfection and priority of any security interest in the securitization property, and that Act 142 shall control in any conflict between Act 142 and any other law of the State of Michigan regarding the attachment and perfection and the effect of perfection and priority of any security interest in securitization property. In addition, Act 142 provides that a valid and enforceable lien and security interest in securitization property may be created only by a financing order and the execution and delivery of a security agreement with a financing party in connection with the issuance of securitization bonds. Act 142 provides that the lien and security interest shall attach automatically from the time that value is received for the bonds and shall be a continuously perfected lien and security interest in the securitization property, and all proceeds of the property, whether accrued or not, shall have priority in the order of filing when a financing statement has been filed with respect to the security interest in accordance with the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code and take precedence over any subsequent judicial and other lien creditor. In addition to the rights and remedies provided by Act 142, Act 142 provides that all rights and remedies with respect to a security interest provided by the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code shall apply to the securitization property and that the transfer of an interest in securitization property to an assignee shall be perfected against all third parties, including subsequent judicial and other lien creditors, when a financing statement has been filed with respect to the transfer in accordance with the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code. Act 142 further provides that the priority of a lien and security interest under Act 142 is not impaired by any later modification of the financing order or by the commingling of funds arising from securitization charges with other funds, that any other security interest that may apply to those funds shall be terminated when they are transferred to a segregated account for the assignee or a financing party and that, if securitization property has been transferred to an assignee, any proceeds of that property shall be held in trust for the assignee.</font></p>

The servicer&#146;s duties under the servicing agreement include the filing with the Michigan Department of State of the filing required by Act 142 to perfect the lien of the trustee in the securitization property. The seller will represent, at the time of issuance of the bonds, that no prior filing has been made under the terms of Act 142 with respect to the securitization property securing the bonds to be issued other than a filing that provides the trustee with a first priority perfected security interest in such securitization property.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The rate of principal payments, the amount of each interest payment and the actual final payment date of each tranche of the bonds and the weighted average life thereof will depend primarily on the timing of receipt of collected securitization charges by the trustee and the true-up mechanism. The aggregate amount of collected securitization charges and the rate of principal amortization on the bonds will depend, in part, on actual energy usage and the rate of delinquencies and write-offs. The securitization charges are required to be adjusted from time to time based in part on the actual rate of collected securitization charges. However, we can give no assurance that the servicer will be able to forecast accurately actual electricity usage and the rate of delinquencies and write-offs or implement adjustments to the securitization charges that will cause collected securitization charges to be received at any particular rate. Please read &#147;Risk Factors&#151;Servicing Risks&#151;Inaccurate forecasting of electric usage or collections might reduce scheduled payments on the securitization bonds&#148; and &#147;Consumers Energy&#146;s Financing Order&#151;True-Up Mechanism&#148;.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The bonds may be retired later than expected. Except in the event of an acceleration of the final payment date of the bonds after an event of default, however, the bonds will not be paid at a rate faster than that contemplated in the expected sinking fund schedule for each tranche of the bonds even if the receipt of collected securitization charges is accelerated. Instead, receipts in excess of the amounts necessary to amortize the bonds in accordance with the applicable expected sinking fund schedules to pay interest and ongoing other qualified costs and any other related fees and expenses and to fund deficiencies in the capital subaccount of the collection account will be allocated to the excess funds subaccount. Amounts on deposit in the excess funds subaccount will be taken into consideration in calculating the next true-up adjustment. 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 related scheduled final payment dates. 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 bonds is received in later years, the bonds may have a longer weighted average life.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On the issuance date the seller will irrevocably sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey the securitization property to us, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions specified in the sale agreement and the indenture. We will finance the purchase of the securitization property through the issuance of the bonds. On the issuance date, the seller will sell to us, without recourse, its entire right, title and interest in and to the securitization property. The securitization property will include all of the seller&#146;s rights under the financing order related to such securitization property to impose, collect and receive securitization charges, and including the right to obtain true-up adjustments and all revenue, collections, payments, money and proceeds arising out of rights and interests under the financing order.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 provides that securitization property shall constitute our present property right even though the imposition and collection of securitization charges depends on the further acts of the electric utility or others that have not yet occurred. Act 142 also provides that an agreement by an electric utility or assignee to transfer securitization property that expressly states that the transfer is a sale or other absolute transfer signifies that the transaction is a true sale and is not a secured transaction and that title, legal and equitable, has passed to the entity to which the securitization property is transferred, and that a true sale under this section of Act 142 applies regardless of whether the issuer has any recourse against the seller, or any other term of the parties&#146; agreement, including the seller&#146;s retention of an equity interest in the securitization property, the fact that the seller acts as a collector of securitization charges relating to the securitization property or the treatment of the transfer as a financing for tax, financial reporting or other purposes.</font></p>

The servicer is also responsible for instituting any action or proceeding as may be reasonably necessary to block or overturn any attempts, including by legislative enactment, voter initiative or constitutional amendment, to cause a repeal, modification or judicial invalidation of Act 142 or the financing order that would be detrimental to the interest of the holders or that would cause an impairment of the rights of the issuing entity or the holders. The servicing agreement also designates the servicer as the custodian of our records and documents.

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 and the financing order mandate that securitization charges on covered electric customers be reviewed and adjusted by the MPSC at least annually to correct any overcollections or undercollections of the preceding 12 months and to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. In addition, the financing order provides that true-up adjustments are required on a semi-annual basis (or, one year prior to the last scheduled final payment date for the latest maturing tranche, on a quarterly basis) if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. True-up adjustments may also be made by the servicer more frequently at any time, without limits as to frequency, if the servicer determines that a true-up adjustment is necessary to ensure the expected recovery during the succeeding annual period of amounts required for the timely payment of debt service and other required amounts and charges in connection with the securitization bonds. The financing order permits mid-year true-up adjustments to be implemented immediately without additional MPSC approval if the proposed true-up adjustment is not opposed. In the financing order, the MPSC affirms that it will act pursuant to the financing order to ensure that expected securitization charges are sufficient to pay on a timely basis all scheduled principal of and interest on the bonds and ongoing other qualified costs in connection with the securitization bonds. For more information on the true-up adjustment process, please read &#147;Consumers Energy&#146;s Financing Order&#151;True-Up Mechanism&#148;.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The financing order states that the MPSC&#146;s role in the true-up adjustment process is largely a mathematical one, and the more expeditiously the true-up adjustment occurs, the better for all parties. The financing order permits mid-year true-up adjustments to be implemented immediately without additional MPSC approval if the proposed true-up adjustment is not opposed. In calculating any true-up adjustment, the servicer will allocate payment responsibility among securitization rate classes in accordance with the requirements of the financing order.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The servicer will remit securitization charge collections to the trustee for deposit in the general subaccount of the collection account. Each such remittance shall be remitted as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than two business days following the business day on which payment is received from covered electric customers. For a description of the allocation of the deposits, please read &#147;Security for the Securitization Bonds&#151;How Funds in the Collection Account will be Allocated&#148;. Until securitization charge collections are remitted to the collection account, the servicer will not segregate them from its general funds. Please read &#147;Risk Factors&#151;Risks Associated with Potential Bankruptcy Proceedings of the Seller or the Servicer&#148; in this prospectus.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The amount so remitted in respect of each business day will be equal to the aggregate securitization charge collections received from all securitization rate classes in respect of that business day. The securitization charge collections received from a securitization rate class in respect of any given business day will be calculated to be equal to the total collections received on that business day from that securitization rate class multiplied by a ratio, the numerator of which is the total securitization charges billed to that securitization rate class during the prior 21-business-day billing period, and the denominator of which is the total amounts billed to that securitization rate class during that same 21-business-day billing period.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>


<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The servicer is not obligated to make any payments on the bonds. In the case of any shortfall, Consumers Energy will allocate that shortfall ratably based on the amount owed to Consumers Energy or other parties and the total amounts owed. After giving effect to payments on the 2001-1 securitization bonds on the April&nbsp;20, 2014 quarterly payment date, the 2001-1 securitization bonds had $70,614,670 in aggregate principal amount outstanding, which was equal to the amount set forth in the expected amortization schedule for the 2001-1 securitization bonds. As described in the first paragraph above, the servicer will not segregate the securitization charges from amounts relating to the 2001-1 securitization bonds. The securitization charges will be segregated only when the servicer remits them to the trustee. Although Consumers Energy is the servicer with respect to the 2001-1 securitization bonds and will be the initial servicer with respect to the securitization bonds, as more fully described under &#147;The Depositor, Seller, Initial Servicer and Sponsor&#148;, we are a separate legal entity from the 2001-1 securitization bond issuer, and the securitization bonds described in this prospectus and the prospectus supplement will be payable from collateral that is separate from that securing the 2001-1 securitization bonds. The 2001-1 securitization bond issuer will have no obligations under our securitization bonds, and we will have no obligations under the 2001-1 securitization bonds. Please read &#147;Act 142&#151;Electric Utilities May Securitize Qualified Costs&#148;, &#147;Consumers Energy&#146;s Financing Order&#148; and &#147;Security for the Securitization Bonds&#148;.</font></p>

The servicer may invest securitization charge collections prior to remittance to the collection account and will be entitled to retain any interest earnings on securitization charge collections prior to remittance to the collection account, as well as all late payment charges, if any, collected from covered electric customers and to be reimbursed for ongoing other qualified costs as described in the servicing agreement. However, if the servicer has failed to remit the securitization charge collections to the collection account on the day that such payment is to be made on more than three occasions during the period that the bonds are outstanding, then thereafter the servicer will be required to pay to the trustee interest on each daily remittance accrued at the Federal Funds Rate from the business day on which such daily remittance was required to be made to the date that such daily remittance is actually made. The trustee will pay the servicing fee on each payment date (together with any portion of the servicing fee that remains unpaid from prior payment dates) to the extent of available funds prior to the distribution of any interest on and principal of the bonds.</font></p>

If, however, a bankruptcy trustee or similar official has been appointed for the servicer, and no servicer default other than an appointment of a bankruptcy trustee or similar official has occurred, that trustee or official may have the power to prevent the trustee or the bondholders from effecting a transfer of servicing.

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Consumers Energy currently has an accounts receivable sale arrangement under which it sells substantially all of its accounts receivable on a revolving basis (other than the securitization charges in respect of the 2001-1 securitization bonds and the securitization charges, which are entitlements of the 2001-1 securitization bond issuer and ours, respectively, and not the servicer, and all of which are excluded from this arrangement). In addition, Consumers Energy has sold certain securitization property (which is separate from the securitization property described in this prospectus and the prospectus supplement) to the 2001-1 securitization bond issuer. Under the intercreditor agreement to be entered into at the time of issuance of the bonds among Consumers Energy, the issuing entity, the trustee, the parties to Consumers Energy&#146;s accounts receivable sale program, the 2001-1 securitization bond issuer and the trustee for the 2001-1 securitization bonds, (i)&nbsp;the securitization charges are excluded from the assets sold under the accounts receivable sale program and the securitization property of the 2001-1 securitization bond issuer and (ii)&nbsp;replacement of the servicer would require the agreement of the trustee, the trustee for the 2001-1 securitization bonds and the administrative agent under the accounts receivable sale program. In the sale agreement, Consumers Energy has covenanted that it will not enter into any future sale of charges owing by covered electric customers to affiliates for the purpose of issuing bonds backed by such charges without causing the parties to such issuance to become party to an intercreditor agreement. Please refer to &#147;Risk Factors &#151; Servicing Risks &#151; If we need to replace Consumers Energy as the servicer, we may experience difficulties finding and using a replacement servicer&#148;.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Consumers Energy will represent and warrant that the transfer of the securitization property in accordance with the sale agreement constitutes a true and valid sale and assignment of that securitization property by Consumers Energy to us. It will be a condition of closing for the sale of the securitization property pursuant to the sale agreement that Consumers Energy will take the appropriate actions under Act 142 to perfect this sale. Act 142 provides that a transfer of securitization property by an electric utility to an assignee that 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, signifies that the transaction is a true sale and is not a secured transaction and that title, legal and equitable, has passed to the entity to which the securitization property is transferred. We and Consumers Energy will treat such a transaction as a sale under applicable law. However, we expect that bonds will be reflected as debt on Consumers Energy&#146;s consolidated financial statements. In addition, we anticipate that the bonds will be treated as debt of Consumers Energy for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Please read &#147;Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences&#148;. In the event of a bankruptcy of a party to a sale agreement, if a party in interest in the bankruptcy were to take the position that the transfer of the securitization 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 Consumers Energy and the attendant possible uncertainty surrounding the treatment of the transaction could result in delays in payments on the bonds.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In that regard, we note that the bankruptcy court in In re LTV Steel Company,&nbsp;Inc., et al., 274 B.R. 278 (Bankr. N. D. Oh. 2001), issued an interim order that observed that a debtor, LTV Steel Company,&nbsp;Inc., 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.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">LTV Steel Company,&nbsp;Inc. 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 pre-petition transactions constituted true sales. The court did not otherwise overrule&nbsp;its earlier ruling. The LTV Steel Company,&nbsp;Inc. 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.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Even if creditors did not challenge the sale of securitization property as a true sale, a bankruptcy filing by Consumers Energy could trigger a bankruptcy filing by us with similar negative consequences for bondholders. In a more recent bankruptcy case,&nbsp;In re General Growth Properties,&nbsp;Inc., 409 B.R. 43, 54 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2009), General Growth Properties,&nbsp;Inc. filed for bankruptcy together with many of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including many subsidiaries that were organized as special purpose vehicles. The Southern District of New York bankruptcy court upheld the validity of the filings of these special purpose subsidiaries and allowed the subsidiaries, over the objections of their creditors, to use the lenders&#146; cash collateral to make loans to the parent for general corporate purposes. The creditors received 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 helping debtors reorganize.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We and Consumers Energy have attempted to mitigate the impact of a possible recharacterization of a sale of securitization property as a financing transaction under applicable creditors&#146; rights principles. The sale agreement will provide that if the transfer of the applicable securitization property is thereafter recharacterized by a court as a financing transaction and not a true sale, the transfer by Consumers Energy will be deemed to have granted to us on behalf of ourselves and the trustee a first priority security interest in all of Consumers Energy&#146;s right, title and interest in and to the securitization property and all proceeds thereof. In addition, the sale agreement will require the filing of a financing statement describing the securitization property and the proceeds thereof as collateral in accordance with Act 142. As a result of this filing, we would, in the event of a recharacterization, be a secured creditor of Consumers Energy and entitled to recover against the collateral or its value. This does not, however, eliminate the risk of payment delays or reductions and other adverse effects caused by a Consumers Energy bankruptcy. Further, if, for any reason, a proper financing statement is not filed under Act 142 or we fail to otherwise perfect our interest in the securitization property, and the transfer is thereafter deemed not to constitute a true sale, we would be an unsecured creditor of Consumers Energy.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Act 142 provides that securitization property shall constitute an account as that term is defined under the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code. Act 142 further provides that, notwithstanding the provisions of the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code, the law of the State of Michigan shall govern the perfection and the effect of perfection and priority of any security interest in the securitization property, and that Act 142 shall control in any conflict between Act 142 and any other law of the State of Michigan regarding the attachment and perfection and the effect of perfection and priority of any security interest in securitization property. In addition, under Act 142, a valid and enforceable lien and security interest in securitization property may be created only by a financing order and the execution and delivery of a security agreement with a financing party in connection with the issuance of securitization bonds. The lien and security interest shall attach automatically from the time that value is received for the bonds and shall be a continuously perfected lien and security interest in the securitization property, and all proceeds of the property, whether accrued or not, shall have priority in the order of filing when a financing statement has been filed with respect to the security interest in accordance with the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code and take precedence over any subsequent judicial and other lien creditor. In addition to the rights and remedies provided by Act 142, all rights and remedies with respect to a security interest provided by the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code shall apply to the securitization property. Transfer of an interest in securitization property to an assignee shall be perfected against all third parties, including subsequent judicial and other lien creditors, when a financing statement has been filed with respect to the transfer in accordance with the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code. The priority of a lien and security interest under Act 142 is not impaired by any later modification of the financing order or by the commingling of funds arising from securitization charges with other funds, and any other security interest that may apply to those funds shall be terminated when they are transferred to a segregated account for the assignee or a financing party. If securitization property has been transferred to an assignee, any proceeds of that property shall be held in trust for the assignee. None of this, however, mitigates the risk of payment delays and other adverse effects caused by a Consumers Energy bankruptcy. Further, if, for any reason, a properly filed financing statement related to the securitization property is not filed with the Michigan Department of State or we fail to otherwise perfect our interest in the securitization property sold pursuant to the sale agreement, and the transfer is thereafter deemed not to constitute a true sale, we would be an unsecured creditor of Consumers Energy.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If Consumers Energy were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case, a party in interest might attempt to substantively consolidate the assets and liabilities of Consumers Energy and us. We and Consumers Energy have taken steps to attempt to minimize this risk. Please read &#147;Consumers 2014 Securitization Funding LLC, The Issuing Entity&#148; in this prospectus. However, no assurance can be given that if Consumers 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 Consumers Energy. Substantive consolidation would result in payment of the claims of the beneficial owners of the bonds to be subject to substantial delay and to adjustment in timing and amount under a plan of reorganization in the bankruptcy case.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Consumers Energy will represent in the sale agreement that the securitization property sold pursuant to such sale agreement constitutes a present property right on the date that it is first transferred to us in connection with the issuance of securitization bonds. Nevertheless, no assurance can be given that, in the event of a bankruptcy of Consumers Energy, a court would not rule&nbsp;that the applicable securitization property comes into existence only as covered electric customers use electricity.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If a court were to accept the argument that the applicable securitization property comes into existence only as covered electric customers use electricity, no assurance can be given that a security interest in favor of the bondholders would attach to the securitization charges in respect of electricity consumed after the commencement of the bankruptcy case or that the securitization property has been sold to us. If it were determined that the securitization property had not been sold to us, and the security interest in favor of the bondholders did not attach to the applicable securitization charges in respect of electricity consumed after the commencement of the bankruptcy case, then we would have an unsecured claim against Consumers Energy. If so, there would be delays and/or reductions in payments on the bonds. Whether or not a court determined that securitization property had been sold to us pursuant to a sale agreement, no assurances can be given that a court would not rule&nbsp;that any securitization charges relating to electricity consumed after the commencement of the bankruptcy could not be transferred to us or the trustee.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If Consumers Energy were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case, claims, including indemnity claims, by us or the trustee against Consumers Energy as seller under the sale agreement and the other documents executed in connection therewith would be unsecured claims and would be subject to being discharged in the bankruptcy case. In addition, a party in interest in the bankruptcy may request that the bankruptcy court estimate any contingent claims that we or the trustee have against Consumers Energy. That party may then take the position that these claims should 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 Consumers Energy based on breach of contract principles. The actual amount of these damages would be subject to estimation and/or calculation by the court.</font></p>

Furthermore, no assurance can be given as to what percentage of their claims, if any, unsecured creditors would receive in any bankruptcy proceeding involving Consumers Energy.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Upon an event of default under the indenture, the trustee may enforce the security interest in the securitization property sold pursuant to the sale agreement in accordance with the terms of the indenture. In this capacity, the trustee or the MPSC is permitted to request that a Michigan court order the sequestration and payment to bondholders of all revenues arising with respect to the securitization property. There can be no assurance, however, that a judge would issue this order after a seller bankruptcy in light of the automatic stay provisions of Section&nbsp;362 of the 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 MPSC or a district court judge and an order requiring an accounting and segregation of the revenues arising from the securitization property sold pursuant to the sale agreement. There can be no assurance that a court would grant either order.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The servicer is entitled to commingle the securitization charges that it receives with its own funds until each date on which the servicer is required to remit funds to the trustee as specified in the servicing agreement. Act 142 provides that the priority of a lien and security interest created under Act 142 is not impaired by the commingling of funds arising from securitization charges with other funds. In the event of a bankruptcy of the servicer, a party in interest in the bankruptcy might assert, and a court might rule, that the securitization charges commingled by the servicer with its own funds and held by the servicer, prior to and as of the date of bankruptcy were property of the servicer as of that date, and are therefore property of the servicer&#146;s bankruptcy estate, rather than our property. If the court so rules, then the court would likely rule&nbsp;that the trustee has only a general unsecured claim against the servicer for the amount of commingled securitization charges held as of that date and could not recover the commingled securitization charges held as of the date of the bankruptcy.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">However, if the court were to rule&nbsp;on the ownership of the commingled securitization charges, the automatic stay arising upon the bankruptcy of the servicer could delay the trustee from receiving the commingled securitization charges held by the servicer as of the date of the bankruptcy until 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 securitization charges are our property or are property of the servicer, including resolution of any tracing of proceeds issues.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The servicing agreement will provide that the trustee, as our assignee, together with the other persons and entities specified therein, may vote to appoint a successor servicer that satisfies the rating agency condition. The servicing agreement will also provide that the trustee, together with the other persons and entities specified therein, may petition the MPSC 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 Consumers Energy as servicer was capable of performing. Furthermore, should the servicer enter into bankruptcy, it may be permitted to stop acting as servicer.</font></p>

This summary also does not address the consequences to holders of the bonds under state, local or foreign tax laws.

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On a sale, exchange or retirement of a bond, a U.S. holder will generally have taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount received by the U.S. holder and the U.S. holder&#146;s tax basis in the bond. A U.S. holder&#146;s tax basis in a bond is generally the U.S. holder&#146;s cost, subject to adjustments such as reductions in basis for principal payments received previously. Gain or loss will generally be capital gain or loss, and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the bond was held for more than one year at the time of disposition. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. holders may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses by both corporate and non-corporate U.S. holders is subject to limitations. If a U.S. holder sells the bond between interest payment dates, a portion of the amount received will reflect interest that has accrued on the bond but that has not yet been paid by the sale date. 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.</font></p>

For these purposes, net investment income generally will include interest (including interest paid with respect to a bond), dividends, annuities, royalties, rents, net gain attributable to the disposition of property not held in a trade or business (including net gain from the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of a bond) and certain other income, but will be reduced by any deductions properly allocable to such income or net gain. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of this tax on their ownership or disposition of a bond.</font></p>

In addition, if a non-U.S. holder is a foreign corporation, it may be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% (or lower rate under an applicable income tax treaty).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Legislation enacted in March&nbsp;2010 and related Treasury guidance (commonly referred to as <b>FATCA</b>) will, when applicable, impose U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% on certain payments on, and the gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, obligations that produce U.S. source income to certain foreign entities. In the case of payments made to a foreign financial institution as defined under FATCA (including, among other entities, an investment fund), as a beneficial owner or as an intermediary, the tax generally will be imposed, subject to certain exceptions, unless such institution (i)&nbsp;enters into (or is otherwise subject to) and complies with an agreement with the U.S. government or (ii)&nbsp;complies with applicable foreign law enacted in connection with an intergovernmental agreement between the United States and a foreign jurisdiction, in either case to, among other things, collect and provide to U.S. or other relevant tax authorities certain information regarding U.S. account holders of such institution. In the case of payments made to a foreign entity that is not a foreign financial institution (as a beneficial owner), the tax generally will be imposed, subject to certain exceptions, unless such foreign entity provides the withholding agent with a certification that it does not have any substantial U.S. owner (generally, any specified U.S. person that directly or indirectly owns more than a specified percentage of such entity) or that identifies its substantial U.S. owners. Subject to a grandfathering provision, the withholding tax will apply to U.S. source interest paid after June&nbsp;30, 2014, and to gross proceeds, including the return of principal, from the sale, exchange or retirement of an obligation that produces U.S. source interest made after December&nbsp;31, 2016. In general, under the grandfathering provision, the withholding tax will not apply to obligations that are issued prior to July&nbsp;1, 2014 unless they are significantly modified on or after that date. Thus, the withholding tax should not apply to the bonds unless the bonds are either issued or are significantly modified (i.e. modified in such a way that they are considered to be re-issued for U.S. federal income tax purposes) on or after July&nbsp;1, 2014. In that case, the 30% withholding tax would apply to interest payments and gross proceeds payments with respect to the bonds as described above, subject to certain transition rules announced in IRS Notice 2014-33 relating to &#147;preexisting obligations&#148;. U.S. holders that own their interests in a bond through foreign entities and intermediaries, and non-U.S. holders are encouraged to consult their tax advisor regarding FATCA.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We may sell the bonds to or through the underwriters named in the prospectus supplement by a negotiated firm commitment underwriting and public reoffering by the underwriters or another underwriting arrangement specified in the prospectus supplement. We may also offer or place the bonds either directly or through agents. We intend that bonds will be offered through these various methods from time to time and that offerings may be made concurrently through more than one of these methods or that an offering of the bonds may be made through a combination of these methods.</font></p>

Underwriters may sell bonds to dealers at prices less a concession. Underwriters may allow, and the dealers may reallow, a concession to other dealers. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the bonds may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts or commissions received by them from the issuing entity and any profit on the resale of the bonds by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We will identify any of these underwriters or agents, and describe any compensation we give them, in the prospectus supplement.</font></p>

<p align="center" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:center;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We expect that the 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 any bonds and, accordingly, we can give no assurance that the ratings assigned to any tranche of the bonds upon initial issuance will not be lowered or withdrawn by an NRSRO at any time thereafter. If a rating of any tranche of bonds is lowered or withdrawn, the liquidity of this tranche of the 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 bonds other than the payment in full of each tranche of the bonds by the final maturity date or tranche final maturity date, as well as the timely payment of interest.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under Rule&nbsp;17g-5 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 issuance date in respect of the bonds. As a result, an NRSRO other than the hired NRSROs may issue unsolicited ratings on the bonds, 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 issuance date in respect of the bonds. Issuance of any unsolicited rating will not affect the issuance of the bonds. Issuance of an unsolicited rating lower than the ratings assigned by the hired NRSRO on the bonds might adversely affect the value of the bonds and, for regulated entities, could affect the status of the bonds as a legal investment or the capital treatment of the bonds. Investors in the bonds should consult with their legal counsel regarding the effect of the issuance of a rating by a non-hired NRSRO that is lower than the rating of a hired NRSRO.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A portion of the fees paid by Consumers Energy to an NRSRO that is hired to assign a rating on the bonds is contingent upon the issuance of the bonds. In addition to the fees paid by Consumers Energy to an NRSRO at closing, Consumers Energy will pay a fee to the NRSRO for ongoing surveillance for so long as the bonds are outstanding. However, no NRSRO is under any obligation to continue to monitor or provide a rating on the bonds.</font></p>

With respect to all Securitization Bond Collateral, this Indenture, together with the Series&nbsp;Supplement, creates a valid and continuing first priority perfected security interest (as defined in the UCC) in such Securitization Bond Collateral, which security interest is prior to all other Liens and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from the Issuer in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors&#146; rights generally or by general equitable principles, whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity and by an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

If such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance is held by any court of competent jurisdiction not to be a true sale as provided in Section 10<i>l</i>(1) of the Securitization Law, then such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance shall be treated as a pledge of the Securitization Property and as the creation of a security interest (within the meaning of the Securitization Law and the UCC) in the Securitization Property and, without prejudice to its position that it has absolutely transferred all of its rights in the Securitization Property to the Issuer, the Seller hereby grants a security interest in the Securitization Property to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties) to secure their respective rights under the Basic Documents to receive the Securitization Charges and all other Securitization Property.</font></p>

[T]he Contract Clause does not require a State to adhere to a contract that surrenders an essential attribute of its sovereignty.&#148; (11)</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In addressing whether there is a contractual relationship, the U.S. Supreme Court has recognized that &#147;absent some clear indication that the legislature intends to bind itself contractually,&#148; there is a presumption that a law is not intended to create private contractual rights but instead &#147;merely declares a policy to be pursued until the legislature shall ordain otherwise.&#148;(13)&#160; This presumption reflects the fact that the principal function of a legislature is not to make contracts, but rather to make laws that establish the state&#146;s policies, which may change.(14)&#160; Thus, this presumption must be overcome by a party asserting the existence of a contract.(15)</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In determining whether a particular statute creates a contractual obligation, &#147;it is of first importance to examine the language of the statute.&#148;(16)&#160; The U.S. Supreme Court has underscored that, in this determination, &#147;the cardinal inquiry is as to the terms of the statute supposed to create such a contract.&#148;(17)&#160; &#147;In general, a statute is itself treated as a contract when the language and circumstances evince a legislative intent to create private rights of a contractual nature enforceable against the State.&#148;(18)</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .15in;text-indent:-.15in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The <i>U.S. Trust</i> opinion also cites the U.S. Supreme Court&#146;s much earlier decision in <i>Brand</i>.(23)&#160; There, the U.S. Supreme Court determined that Indiana&#146;s &#147;Teachers&#146; Tenure Act&#148; created binding and enforceable contract rights.(24)&#160; The U.S. Supreme Court based its decision, in part, on the legislature&#146;s use of the word &#147;contract&#148; throughout the statute to describe the relationship between the state and the school teachers.(25)</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .15in;text-indent:-.15in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A statute&#146;s mere use of the term &#147;contract,&#148; or other language of contract, in a statute does not necessarily evidence an intent to bind the government contractually.(26)&#160; For example, a statute may use the term &#147;contract&#148; to define the relationship between private parties, rather than the relationship between the government and private parties.(27)</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The &#147;reserved-powers doctrine&#148; limits the ability of the state to enter into a contract that &#147;surrenders an essential attribute of sovereignty.&#148;(35)&#160; Under the doctrine, a state&#146;s contract is invalid if it purports to &#147;contract away&#148; certain &#147;reserved powers.&#148;(36)&#160; For example, the U.S. Supreme Court has held that a state cannot &#147;contract away&#148; the power of eminent domain or its police power.(37)</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">However, the U.S. Supreme Court has recognized that &#147;[w]hatever the propriety of a State&#146;s binding itself to a future course of conduct in other contexts, the power to enter into effective financial contracts cannot be questioned.&#148;(38)&#160; Thus, for example, states are bound by their debt contracts &#151; a state may not authorize a municipality to borrow money, and then later restrict its taxing power so that the debt cannot be repaid.(39)&#160; In the <i>U.S. Trust</i> case, the U.S. Supreme Court found a promise to be &#147;purely financial&#148; and thus not within the reserved powers that cannot be contracted away.(40)&#160; The financial obligation involved in <i>U.S. Trust</i> was a promise by the States of New York and New Jersey that revenues and reserves securing bonds issued by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey would not be depleted beyond a certain level &#151; &#147;[s]uch a promise is purely financial.&#148;(41)</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The leading Contract Clause case where the state was a contracting party is <i>U.S. Trust</i>, in which the U.S. Supreme Court held that a state could not retroactively alter a statutory bond covenant relied upon by bond purchasers.(59)&#160; As noted, the statutory covenant at issue in <i>U.S. Trust</i> limited the ability of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to subsidize rail passenger transportation from revenues and reserves pledged as security for certain bonds.(60)&#160; Twelve years after entering into the statutory covenant, the states repealed it.(61)&#160; The states contended that the repeal of the covenant was necessary to subsidize improved commuter railroad services, as new planned mass transit facilities could not possibly be self-supporting.&#160; They contended that the goals of mass transportation, energy conservation and environmental protection were so important that any harm to bondholders from the repeal of the statutory covenant was greatly outweighed by the public benefit.(62)&#160; The U.S. Supreme Court rejected this justification, concluding that &#147;the repeal was neither necessary to achievement of the plan nor reasonable in light of the circumstances.&#148;(63)</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The U.S. Supreme Court reasoned:&#160; &#147;First it cannot be said that total repeal of the covenant was essential; a less drastic modification would have permitted the contemplated plan without entirely removing the covenant&#146;s limitations on the use of Port Authority revenues and reserves to subsidize commuter railroads.&#148;(64)&#160; &#147;Second, without modifying the covenant at all, the States could have adopted alternative means of achieving their twin goals of discouraging automobile use and improving mass transit&#148; &#151; for example, by taxing gasoline or parking and using the revenues to subsidize mass transit projects.(65)&#160; Therefore, the repeal of the statutory covenant was not reasonable in light of the circumstances.(66)</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A plaintiff seeking a permanent injunction must satisfy a four-factor test before a federal district court may grant such relief.(80)&#160; A plaintiff must demonstrate (1)&nbsp;that it has suffered, or faces a real threat of, an irreparable injury, (2)&nbsp;that monetary damages, or other remedies available at law, are inadequate to compensate for that injury, (3)&nbsp;that an equitable remedy is warranted in light of the balance of hardships between the plaintiff and defendant and (4)&nbsp;that a permanent injunction would not disserve the public interest.(81)&#160; Ultimately, the decision to grant or deny permanent injunctive relief is within the discretion of the district court; on appeal, the district court&#146;s decision is reviewable only for abuse of discretion.(82)&#160; In the context of an alleged constitutional violation, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit (which includes federal district courts in Michigan) has stated that &#147;a party is entitled to a permanent injunction if it can establish that it suffered a constitutional violation and will suffer &#145;continuing irreparable injury&#146; for which there is no adequate remedy at law.&#148;(83)</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The purpose of a preliminary injunction is to preserve the relative positions of the parties until a trial on the merits can be held.(88)&#160; In considering a motion for preliminary injunction, a federal district court will balance four factors: (1)&nbsp;whether the movant has a strong likelihood of success on the merits; (2)&nbsp;whether the movant would suffer irreparable injury without a preliminary injunction; (3)&nbsp;whether the issuance of a preliminary injunction would cause substantial harm to others; and (4)&nbsp;whether the public interest would be served by the issuance of a preliminary injunction.(89)&#160; These four factors are to be balanced; they are not strict prerequisites, each of which must be independently satisfied.&#160; Thus, the federal district court is not required to make specific findings concerning each of the four factors, if fewer than four factors are dispositive in granting or denying a preliminary injunction.(90)&#160; However, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit (which includes federal district courts in Michigan) has stated that &#147;it is generally</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A preliminary injunction is &#147;an extraordinary remedy.&#148;(92)&#160; The Sixth Circuit has stated that &#147;[t]he purpose of a preliminary injunction is always to prevent irreparable injury so as to preserve the court&#146;s ability to render a meaningful decision on the merits.&#148;(93)&#160; Ultimately, the decision to grant or deny a preliminary injunction is within the discretion of the district court; on appeal, if any, the district court&#146;s decision is reviewable only for abuse of discretion.(94)</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Takings Clause covers both tangible and intangible property.(97)&#160; The U.S. Supreme Court has recognized that &#147;intangible property rights protected by state law are deserving of the protection of the Takings Clause.&#148;(98)&#160; Thus, for example, valid contracts are property protected by the Takings Clause.(99)&#160; However, &#147;the fact that legislation disregards or destroys existing contractual rights does not always transform the regulation into an illegal taking.&#148;(100)</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The U.S. Supreme Court has observed that there is &#147;no magic formula&#148; to determine in every case whether a government interference with property is a taking.(101)&#160; The classic taking is a transfer of property to the state or to another private party by eminent domain.(102)&#160; The Takings Clause also applies to other state actions that achieve the same thing, as when the government uses its own property in a way that destroys private property.(103)&#160; Similarly, it is a taking when a state regulation forces a property owner to submit to a permanent physical occupation, or deprives a property owner of all economically beneficial use of such owner&#146;s property.(104)&#160; Also, a state effects a taking if it recharacterizes private property as public property.(105)</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .25in;text-indent:-.25in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The U.S. Supreme Court has established that a taking occurs: (1)&nbsp;where the government authorizes a permanent physical invasion of property; and (2)&nbsp;where a regulation completely deprives an owner of all economically beneficial use of property.(106)&#160; Outside of these two narrow categories, takings challenges are governed by a three-factor test set forth by the U.S. Supreme Court in the <i>Penn Central</i> case, which identified &#147;several factors that have particular significance&#148;: (1)&nbsp;the character of the governmental action; (2)&nbsp;the economic impact of the</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Moreover, there is consideration flowing to the State of Michigan, which receives the benefit of open access for electric utility customers and an overall reduction in residential electric utility rates that the provisions of Act 142 will facilitate.&#160; A similar situation arose in <u>Detroit&nbsp;&amp; Howell Plank Road Company</u>, <u>supra</u>, where the Michigan Supreme Court found that 1879 legislation authorizing the City of Detroit to compel a corporation to remove its toll gate was unconstitutional because it constituted a reduction of tolls otherwise prohibited by the Plank-Road Act for a period of 60 years beginning in 1848.&#160;&#160; The Court&#146;s ruling was based on its finding that the Plank-Road Act included a binding pledge of the State of Michigan not to reduce tolls which amounted to a contract with the corporation that constructed the plank road.&#160;&#160; The Court in this case recognized that the State of Michigan received a general benefit for the public welfare in having the road constructed by a private company and refused to grant mandamus to enforce the new legislation which would impair rights created by contract.&#160; <i>See also</i>, <u>Pingree</u> v <u>Michigan Central Rail Company</u>, 118 Mich 314; 76 NW 636 (1898).&#160; Given the express pledge by the State of Michigan contained in Act 142 and the existence of consideration to the State in the form of general public benefit, it is reasonable to conclude that the pledge contained in Section&nbsp;10n(2)&nbsp;is intended to and does create a valid agreement of the State of Michigan which binds future legislatures to that agreement.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">It is clear that the Legislature can use such nomenclature when it wishes to.&#160; For instance, when enacting 1982 PA 259, which requires the state treasurer to pay the principal of and interest on all state obligations, the Legislature provided in MCL 12.64:&#160; &#147;<i>This act <u>shall be deemed a contract</u></i> with the holders from time to time of obligations of this state.&#148;&#160; (Emphasis added.)&#160; Similarly, when enacting the State Housing Development Authority Act, 1966 PA 346, the Legislature provided in MCL 125.1434:&#160; &#147;<i>The <u>state pledges</u> and agrees </i>with the holders of any notes or bonds issued under this act, <i>that the state will not limit or alter the rights vested in the authority to fulfill the terms of any agreements made with the holders thereof, or in any way impair the rights and remedies of the holders </i>until the notes or bonds, together with the interest thereon, with interest on any unpaid installments of interest, and all costs and expenses in connection with any action or proceeding by or on behalf of such holders, are fully met and discharged.&#160; The authority is authorized to include this pledge and agreement of the state in any agreement with the holders of such notes or bonds.&#148;&#160; (Emphasis added.)</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The approach taken by the Legislature in creating rights for the holders of securitization bonds in Act 142 is similar to that taken by the Legislature in creating contract rights for holders of bonds issued by the State Housing Development Authority.&#160; Both Act 142 and the State Housing Development Authority Act provide a specific &#147;state pledge&#148; and authorization for that pledge to be included in agreements with bondholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">However, neither the United States Contract Clause nor the Michigan Contract Clause are a complete bar to legislative enactments that have the effect or consequence of altering contractual obligations. <i>See </i><u>First Nat. Bank of Chicago</u> v <u>Dept. of Treasury</u>, 280 Mich App 571, 760 NW2d 775 (2008) (<i>rev&#146;d on other grounds</i> 485 Mich 980, 774 NW2dd 912 (2009)) (&#147;The Contracts Clause prohibition against any state law that impairs the obligations of contract is not absolute and must be &#145;accommodated to the inherent police power of the State to safeguard the vital interest of its people.&#146; quoting from <u>Romein</u> v. <u>Gen. Motors Corp.</u>, 436 Mich 515, 534, 462 NW2d 555 (1990).). The court begins with the presumption that the statute in question is constitutional, and the burden is on the plaintiff to prove it is unconstitutional. <u>Wells Fargo Bank, NA</u> v. <u>Cherryland Mall Ltd Partnership</u>, 300 Mich App 361, 835 NW2d 593 (2013); <u>Wayne County Board of Commissioners</u> v <u>Wayne County Airport Authority</u>, 253 Mich App 144, 163 (2002). The Michigan Supreme Court has stated, &#147;Under modern Contract Clause analysis, a balancing approach has been adopted by the courts, weighing the degree of the impairment of the contractual rights and obligations of the parties against the justification for the impairment as an act of the state&#146;s police power to implement legislation for a legitimate public purpose.

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Michigan Supreme Court described this balancing test as follows:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The federal balancing approach has been adopted by our Court for purposes of adjudicating state Contract Clause claims as well as federal Contract Clause claims. See <u>Van Slooten </u>v <u>Larsen </u>, <u>supra </u>; <u>Metropolitan Funeral System Ass&#146;n </u>v <u>Ins Comm&#146;r </u>, <u>supra </u>. Thus, in scrutinizing Contract Clause claims under the state and federal constitutions, the aforementioned cases establish the following standard:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">1&#151;The first inquiry is &#147;whether the state law has, in fact, operated as a substantial impairment of a contractual relationship&#148; (emphasis added). <u>Allied Structural Steel Co </u>v <u>Spannaus </u>, 438 US 244; 98 S Ct 2722.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">2&#151;A critical factor to be considered in determining the extent of the impairment is &#147;whether the industry the complaining party has entered has been regulated in the past.&#148; <u>Energy Reserves</u>, <u>supra </u>.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">3&#151;If the impairment is minimal, then there is no unconstitutional impairment of contract and our inquiry may end at this step.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">4&#151;If, however, the impairment is severe, then there are two further inquiries, both of which must be affirmatively shown to justify the legislative impairment:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.5in;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">a) Is there a significant and legitimate public purpose behind the regulation, and</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.5in;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">b) If there is a legitimate public purpose, are the means adopted to implement the legislation reasonably related to the public purpose?</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Only one case has addressed the issue of impairment of contract in relation to Act 142.&#160; In <u>Consumers Energy Co</u> v <u>Michigan Public Service Commission</u>, 268 Mich App 171; 707 NW 2d 633 (2005), Consumers filed a claim against the MPSC, alleging that an MPSC order giving credits to customers who selected an alternative supplier to offset securitization charges impaired Consumers&#146; contract with securitization bondholders. More specifically, it alleged that the MPSC order violated Section&nbsp;10n(2)&nbsp;of Act. 142.&#160; <u>Id.</u> at 185-86. The Court held that, because the credits were refunding from excess securitization savings, the order of the MPSC did not &#147;impair the imposition, collection, or remitting of securitization funds and, accordingly, does not violate M.C.L. &#167; 460.10n(2).&#148; <u>Id.</u> at 186.&#160; In reaching this conclusion, the Court noted that &#147;despite this offset, securitization charges are collected from ROA [retail open access] customers and used for securitization purposes, but then ROA customers are in effect credited or refunded the same amount from another source, i.e., excess securitization savings.&#148; <u>Id</u> . at 186.&#160; It is worth noting that neither party in this case challenged the validity of the Section&nbsp;10n(2)&nbsp;pledge that existed in this prior securitization financing under Act 142.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">There is no way to predict how a future court will react to a specific challenge brought to Section&nbsp;10n(2)&nbsp;under state law.&#160; However, based on and subject to the foregoing, as well as the further qualification that there is no definitive judicial authority confirming the correctness of the analysis discussed above, we are of the opinion that Section&nbsp;10n(2)&nbsp;was validly enacted and is enforceable as a contractual obligation of the State of Michigan while the Securitization Bonds remain outstanding.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We have considered existing case law, concerning the application of the Contract Clause of the Michigan Constitution to legislation which reduces or eliminates taxes, public charges or other sources of revenues which support bonds issued by public instrumentalities or private issuers, or which otherwise reduces or eliminates security for bonds. Based on interpretation of existing case law, in our opinion, under the Contract Clause of the Michigan Constitution, any attempt by the State of Michigan, including the MPSC, to take any action of a legislative character, including, but not limited to, repeal or amendment of Act 142 or the Financing Order (including repeal or amendment by voter initiative pursuant to Article&nbsp;2, Section&nbsp;9 of the Michigan Constitution), that substantially impairs the value of the Securitization Property, or substantially reduces, alters or impairs the Securitization Charges (as described in the Financing Order) to be imposed, collected, and remitted to the Issuer (except as allowed under the adjustment provisions authorized in Section&nbsp;10k(3)&nbsp;of Act 142), if such action violates the pledge contained in Section&nbsp;10n(2)&nbsp;or would substantially impair the rights vested in the Securitization Bondholders by the Financing Order, would not be upheld by a court properly briefed, exercising reasonable judgment after full consideration of all relevant factors, unless that action is a reasonable exercise of the State of Michigan&#146;s sovereign powers involving a significant and</font></p>

<p align="center" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:center;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Michigan Constitution contains in Article&nbsp;10, Section&nbsp;2, a prohibition against takings without just compensation: &#147;Private property shall not be taken for public use without just compensation therefor being first made or secured in a manner prescribed by law.&#148;&#160; This provision of the Michigan Constitution was amended in 2006 to further restrict the circumstances under which the State of Michigan can take private property for public use.&#160; The amendment added a definition to this section of the term &#147;public use&#148; which provides:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#147;Public use&#148; does not include the taking of private property for transfer to a private entity for the purpose of economic development or enhancement of tax revenues.&#160; Private property otherwise may be taken for reasons of public use as that term is understood on the effective date of the amendment to this constitution that added this paragraph.&#148;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">This provision of the Michigan Constitution (the &#147;Michigan Takings Clause&#148;) provides protection from the taking of private property similar to the protection provided by the United States Constitution. The Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution states, &#147;nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.&#148; The Fifth Amendment is made applicable to state action via the Fourteenth Amendment. <u>Palazzolo</u> v <u>Rhode Island</u>, 533 US 606 (2001); <u>Webb&#146;s Fabulous Pharmacies</u> v <u>Beckwith</u>, 449 US 155 (1980); <u>Keystone Bituminous Coal Ass&#146;n</u> v <u>DeBenedictis</u>, 480 US 470 (1987).&#160; Because Michigan Courts frequently rely on federal court precedent in deciding cases under the Michigan Takings Clause our analysis encompasses a review of these federal court cases.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fifth Amendment protection of the United States Constitution referred to above (the &#147;US Takings Clause&#148;) covers both tangible and intangible property, including contract and lien rights.&#160; <u>Ruckelshaus</u> v <u>Monsanto</u>, 467 US 986 (1984); <u>Armstrong</u> v <u>US</u>, 364 US 40, 48 (1960). In fact, the federal courts have stated:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">When the Government and private parties Contract . . ., the private party usually acquires an intangible property interest within the meaning of the Takings Clause in the contract. The express rights under this contract are just as concrete as the inherent rights arising from ownership of real property, personal property, or an actual sum of money.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><u><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Adams</font></u><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;"> v <u>United States</u>, 391 F3d 1212, 1221-22 (Fed. Cir. 2004). <i>See also</i>, <u>Lynch</u> v <u>US</u>, 292 US 571, 579 (1934) (&#147;The Fifth Amendment commands that property be not taken without making just compensation. Valid contracts are property whether the obligor be a private individual, a municipality, a state, or the United States.&#148;). However, &#147;the fact that legislation disregards or destroys existing contractual rights does not always transform the regulation into an illegal taking. . . . This is not to say that contractual rights are never property rights or that the Government may always take them for its own benefit without compensation.&#148; <u>Connolly</u> v <u>Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp</u>, 475 US 211, 223-24 (1986).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We are not aware of any case law which definitively addresses the applicability of the MichiganTakings Clause in the context of the proper exercise by the State of Michigan of its police power to abrogate or impair contracts otherwise binding on the State.&#160; One Michigan Court of Appeals case suggests that the taking of such a contract by the State of Michigan would require payment of just compensation.&#160; In this case, <u>Petition of Mackie</u>, 5 Mich App 572, 577; 147 NW2d 441, (1967), the Court of Appeals affirmed the decision of the trial court, and quoted the following with apparent approval, from the trial court&#146;s opinion:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">With respect to this matter I charge you that such a contractual right, that is, an agreement arising from a contract whereby a person or the State of Michigan agrees to do something, or agrees to perform future benefit of certain property owners, or for the benefit of a piece of property, can not be taken without awarding just compensation in exchange therefor.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">When contract rights are taken for public use, there is a constitutional right to compensation in the same manner as when other property rights are taken.&#160; In other words, the State may, if it sees fit, rescind its contract, but it can do so only by the exercise of the power of Eminent Domain, and such rescission or failure by the State to act in the manner called for by the contract is a taking of property in the constitutional sense, and for such taking the State is obliged to pay an award for damages for compensation for the breach of contract.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Now the proper method of awarding compensation for such a taking would be the cost of doing those things which the State by contract had agreed to do.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 1.0in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Both our state and federal constitutions provide that private property may not be taken for public use without just compensation.&#160; U.S. Const., Am.

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Challenges to legislation pursuant to the US Takings Clause do not follow any set formula, but instead rely &#147;on ad hoc, factual inquiries into the circumstances of each particular case.&#148; <u>Connolly</u>, <u>supra</u>, at 224 (citing <u>Monsanto</u>, <u>supra</u>, at 1005). Until recently, federal courts relied heavily on a set of three factors in determining whether there was a regulatory taking. However, the Supreme Court has since discouraged the use of any specific factors, returning the focus of the decision to the concepts of &#147;fairness and justice.&#148; <i>See</i>, <u>Tahoe-Sierra Preservation Council,&nbsp;Inc.</u> v <u>Tahoe Regional Planning Agency</u>, 535 US 302, 335-36 (2002); <u>Palazollo</u>, <u>supra</u>, at 636 (O&#146;Connor, J. concurring); <u>Bass Enterprises Production Co</u> v <u>US</u>, 381 F3d 1360 (2004). Previously, courts focused on the following three factors: (i)&nbsp;the character of the governmental action; (ii)&nbsp;the economic impact of the regulation on the claimant; and (iii)&nbsp;the extent to which the regulation has interfered with distinct investment-backed expectations.&#160; <u>Penn Central</u>, 438 US 104, 124 (1978); <u>Monsanto</u>, <u>supra</u>. Though the Supreme Court has moved away from designating any set factors for the determination of a taking, these factors are likely to still be considered relevant in determining whether &#147;fairness and justice&#148; are present. <i>See </i><u>Palazollo</u>, <u>supra</u>, at 633-34 (&#147;We have &#145;identified several factors that have particular significance&#146; in these &#145;essentially ad hoc, factual inquiries.&#146; Two such factors are &#145;[t]he economic impact of the regulation on the claimant and, particularly the extent to which the regulation has interfered with distinctive investment backed expectations.&#148; (citations omitted)). Therefore, it is important to note that, while these three factors have frequently been discussed in association with a US Takings Clause challenge, the courts will also take into consideration all relevant circumstances.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Michigan courts have followed a similar analysis when determining whether a compensable taking has occurred.&#160; As noted by the <u>Charles Murphy</u> court:</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Though the Michigan courts have generally held that no precise formula exists for determining if there has been a taking, the court in <u>Chelsea Investment Group LLC</u> v <u>City of Chelsea</u>, 288 Mich App 239, 261-62 (2010) required regulatory taking claims to satisfy the three-factor balancing test set out by the United States Supreme Court in <u>Penn Central</u>, <u>supra</u>, as noted above. Other courts have held that the plaintiff is required to &#147;prove a causal connection between the government&#146;s action and the alleged damages.&#148; <u>Hinojosa</u>, <u>supra</u>, at 549. Furthermore, an &#147;uncompensated taking claim&#148; requires a vested property right to be affected. <u>Attorney General</u>, 294 Mich App at 436. &#147;To constitute a vested right, the interest must be &#145;something more than such a mere expectation as may be based upon an anticipated continuance of the present general laws; it must have become a title, legal or equitable, to the present or future enjoyment of property.&#146;&#148;&#160; (quoting <u>Minty</u> v <u>Bd of State Auditors</u>, 336 Mich. 370, 390 (1953) (quoting 2 Cooley, Constitutional Limitations (8</font><font size="1" style="font-size:6.5pt;position:relative;top:-3.0pt;">th</font><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#160;ed.) at 749)).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Based on the discussion in the above contracts section, the right to the Securitization Property would be vested. Thus, the outcome of any claim that interference by the State of Michigan with the value of the Securitization Property without just compensation is unconstitutional, would likely depend on factors such as the State interest furthered by that interference and the extent of financial loss to Securitization Bondholders caused by that interference. These two factors depend in large part on the nature of the governmental action which is being challenged, and therefore, it is difficult to assess at this juncture, before such action has occurred, whether or not such action would run afoul of the Michigan Takings Clause.</font></p>
