CILCORP's electric revenues are allocated between electric generation and electric transmission and distribution activities according to utility rate base. AES generation revenues are derived from the total generation revenues earned by AES subsidiaries times the percentage ownership interest of AES in those subsidiaries. There has been no change in the amount of generation capacity owned by CILCORP, the amount of generation capacity owned by IPALCO has been restated from 3,363 MW to 3,278 MW and there has been no material change in the amount of generation capacity owned by AES (excluding CILCORP and IPALCO) since September 30, 2002. There has been a less than 1% increase in the total revenues earned from the capacity owned by AES, IPALCO and CILCORP in the 12-month period ended December 31, 2002 compared with the 12-month period ended September 30, 2002. The percentage of the total revenues derived from the generation capacity owned by CILCORP has remained the same at 4%. The percentage of the total revenues derived from the generation capacity owned by IPALCO has remained the same at 13%.

CILCORP's electric revenues are allocated between electric generation and electric transmission and distribution activities according to utility rate base. AES transmission and distribution revenues are derived from the total revenues earned by AES transmission and distribution subsidiaries by multiplying these revenues by the percentage ownership interest of AES in those subsidiaries. The total transmission and distribution assets owned by AES, CILCORP and IPALCO have increased since September 30, 2002. CILCORP's transmission and distribution assets have increased slightly and the revenues derived from such assets have increased since September 30, 2002. IPALCO's transmission and distribution assets have increased while the revenues derived from such assets have increased slightly since September 30, 2002. AES' transmission and distribution assets have decreased and the revenues derived from such assets have decreased since September 30, 2002. CILCORP's percentage of the total transmission and distribution assets has remained the same at 11%, and CILCORP's percentage of the total revenues from such assets has increased from 9% to 10% for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2002 compared to the 12-month period ending September 30, 2002. IPALCO's percentage of the total transmission and distribution assets has increased from 15% to 19%, and IPALCO's percentage of the total revenues from such assets has increased from 5% to 6% for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2002 compared to the 12-month period ending September 30, 2002.

A final order in the proceeding was issued December 4, 2002, authorizing, among other things, the purchase by Ameren of all of the outstanding common stock of CILCORP from AES. During the fourth quarter of 2002, no application has been made to nor has any order been received from the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission that involves AES' ownership position or AES' oversight over the operations of IPL or IPALCO. 24 ITEM (7) PER EXEMPTION ORDER: AES announced on April 29, 2002 an agreement with Ameren to sell 100% of AES's ownership interest in CILCORP, including the jurisdictional business and assets of CILCO. In addition to the filing with the Illinois Commerce Commission discussed in item (6) above, on July 19, 2002, CILCO and Ameren Services Company, on behalf of the public utility company subsidiaries of Ameren, filed an application requesting authorization from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for Ameren to acquire CILCO through the acquisition from AES of all of the outstanding common stock of CILCORP. FERC approved the application in an order issued on November 21, 2002 in Docket No. EC02-96-000. Ameren Services Co., 101 FERC P. 61,202 (2002). Also, on August 2, 2002, as amended on October 28, 2002, January 28, 2003 and January 29, 2003, Ameren and CILCORP filed with the SEC a Form U-1 application/declaration in File No. 70-10078 seeking approval for the acquisition by Ameren of CILCORP and certain associated transactions. The SEC approved the proposed acquisition in an order issued on January 29, 2003, Holding Company Act Release No. 27645. On January 31, 2003, AES announced completion of the sale of CILCORP, including CILCO, to Ameren.
