                    TWENTY LARGEST HOLDERS OF CAPITAL STOCKS

    15.  As of a recent  date  (indicating  such date for each  class)  give the
         following  information  with  respect  to the  holders of each class of
         stock and/or certificates of beneficial interest of the registrant:

         (a)      The twenty largest  registered  holders of the common stock of
                  Ameren  Corporation,  as of its most  recent  dividend  record
                  date:

                           AMC  shares  can  be  held  by  certificate,  through
                  dividend   reinvestment  plans,  through  employee  investment
                  plans, through investment companies, and other street name and
                  nominee accounts.  Absent an unreasonable  expenditure of time
                  and money,  AMC has no way to  determine  the number of shares
                  held by each holder of beneficial interest.  Accordingly,  AMC
                  is only able to provide  information  as to shares  registered
                  with AMC.

                           The following  table sets forth AMC's twenty  largest
                      registered shareholders on the books as of March 6, 1998:

                name and address of each  director  and officer  (including  any
                person who performs  similar  functions) of the  registrant,  of
                each  subsidiary  company  thereof,  and of each mutual  service
                company  which is a member of the same holding  company  system.
                Opposite  the name of each  such  individual  give the  title of
                every such position held by him and briefly  describe each other
                employment of such individual by each such company.

                State the present  rate of  compensation  on an annual basis for
                each  director  whose  aggregate   compensation  from  all  such

                aggregate  compensation  from such  companies  is at the rate of

                part of his time to a company or  companies  in the system  this
                fact  should  be  indicated  by   appropriate   footnote.   Such
                compensation  for such part time should be computed on an annual

         (c)    Indebtedness  to System  Companies.  As to every such  director,
                trustee or officer as  aforesaid,  who is indebted to any one of
                such  companies,  or on whose  behalf any such  company  has now
                outstanding  and effective any obligation to assume or guarantee
                payment of any  indebtedness to another,  and whose total direct
                and  contingent  liability  to such  company  exceeds the sum of
                $1,000, give the name of such director, trustee, or officer, the

                      immediate family, owns, directly or indirectly, 5% or more
                      of the voting securities of any third person with whom any
                      such company has an existing contract; or,
                (3)   has any other beneficial  interest in an existing contract
                      to which any such company is a party; describe briefly the
                      nature of such contract, the names of the parties thereto,
                      the  terms  thereof,  and the  interest  of such  officer,
                      trustee, or director therein.

                name of such  director or officer,  describe  briefly such other
                positions  held by him and  indicate  which of the  rules  under
                Section 17(c) authorizes the registrant and subsidiary companies
                of which he is a  director  or  officer  to  retain  him in such
                capacity.

                     By  permission  of the Staff,  information  required  to be
                disclosed pursuant to Items 16(a) through 16(e) is not set forth
                herein.  In lieu thereof,  information in respect thereof is set
                forth in the Proxy Statements of AMC, CIP and UEC distributed in
                connection  with the 1998 Annual  Meetings of Shareholders or in
                the Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31,
                1997  for  such  companies,   and  such  information  is  hereby
                incorporated by reference.


                    INTERESTS OF TRUSTEES IN SYSTEM COMPANIES

    17.  Describe  briefly  the  nature of any  substantial  interest  which any
         trustee under  indentures  executed in connection  with any outstanding
         issue of securities of the registrant or any subsidiary thereof, has in
         either the registrant or such subsidiary,  and any claim which any such
         trustee  may  have  against  registrant  or any  subsidiary;  provided,
         however,  that it shall not be necessary to include in such description
         any evidences of  indebtedness  owned by such trustee which were issued
         pursuant to such an indenture.

              To the  best  knowledge  of  AMC's  management,  there  is no such
         interest.


                   SERVICE, SALES, AND CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS

    18.  As to  each service,  sales, or  construction  contract (as  defined in
         paragraphs (19) to(21) of Section 2(a) of the Act) which the registrant
         and any subsidiary company  thereof has had in  effect  within the last
         three months, describe briefly the  nature of such  contract, the  name
         and  address  of  the  parties  thereto,  the  dates  of  execution and
         expiration, and the compensation to be paid thereunder.  Attach typical
         forms of  any  such  contracts  as  an  exhibit  to  this  registration
         statement.  If the other party to any such contract is a mutual service
         company or a subsidiary service  company which is a  member of the same
         holding company system as the registrant and as to which the Commission
         has made a  favorable finding in  accordance with  Rule 13-22, specific
         reference may be made to the  application or declaration  filed by such
         company pursuant to Rule 13-22 and no further  details need be given as
         to such contracts.

                  See the General Services  Agreement  between AMS and AMC, UEC,
         CIP,  CIC,  ADC and  ERC,  the form of which  was  filed as the  Second
         Amended Exhibit B-4 to the Merger U-1, as amended, in File No. 70-8945,
         which is incorporated herein by reference. As additional agreements are
         subsequently entered into, copies will be provided by amendment.

    19.  Describe briefly any existing litigation of the following descriptions,
         to which the registrant or any subsidiary  company  thereof is a party,
         or of which  the  property  of the  registrant  or any such  subsidiary
         company is the  subject,  including  the names of the  parties  and the
         court in which such litigation is pending:

    EXHIBIT G.          Furnish  a  copy  of  each   annual  report  which   the
                        registrant  and each  public  utility subsidiary company
                        thereof  shall  have  filed  with  any  State Commission
                        having jurisdiction to regulate public utility companies
                        for  the last  fiscal year  ending  prior to the date of
                        filing this registration statement.  If any such company
                        shall have filed similar reports with more than one such
                        State commission,  the registrant  need file  a copy  of
                        only  one of such reports provided that notation is made
                        of  such  fact,  giving  the  names  of  the   different
                        commissions  with  which  such  report  was  filed,  and

                        Federal Power Commission but not to  a State commission,
                        a copy of such report should be furnished.  In the  case
                        of a registrant or any public utility subsidiary company
                        for  which  no report  is appended  the reasons for such
                        omission  should  be indicated  such as "No such reports
                        required  or  filed;" provided  that  electronic  filers
                        shall  submit such  reports in  paper format  only under
                        cover of Form SE.
