Report of Independent Accountants
To The Participants and Administrator of
The Illinois Power Company
Incentive Savings Plan for Employees
Covered Under a Collective Bargaining Agreement
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits
and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits of the
Illinois Power Company Incentive Savings Plan for Employees Covered Under a
Collective Bargaining Agreement (the "Plan") at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and
the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, which require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
As explained in Note 1 to the financial statements, Illinois Power Company sold
its Clinton Nuclear Power Plant ("Clinton") to AmerGen Energy Company
("AmerGen") on December 15, 1999. Under terms of the sales agreement, the Plan
accounts for Clinton employees were transferred to AmerGen on January 21, 2000.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of Assets Held
for Investment Purposes is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and
is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management.
The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied
in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

ILLINOIS POWER COMPANY
INCENTIVE SAVINGS PLAN
FOR EMPLOYEES COVERED UNDER A
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AGREEMENT
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN:
General:
The Illinois Power Company Incentive Savings Plan for Employees Covered
Under a Collective Bargaining Agreement (the Plan) is sponsored and administered
by Illinois Power Company (the Company). The Plan became effective as of January
1, 1987. Assets of the Plan are held and managed by a Trustee. Effective July 1,
1995, Fidelity Management Trust Company of Boston, Massachusetts became trustee
and custodian. The purpose of the Plan is to enable participants to invest a
portion of their salaries in tax-deferred savings pursuant to section 401(k) of
the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The Plan is subject to and in compliance with
the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) as
amended.
Illinois Power Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Illinova
Corporation (Illinova). Although Illinois Power Company remains the sponsor and
administrator of the Plan, all shares of stock contributed to participants'
accounts or held in the Stock Fund are shares of Illinova.
Participation:
All employees of Illinova who are covered under a collective bargaining
agreement are eligible to participate in the Plan. Participation is voluntary.
Active participation ceases upon termination of employment with the Company.
Former employees can choose to liquidate their accounts or to leave them in the
Plan. Earnings will continue to accrue on undistributed accounts. All accounts,
whether for active or former employees, are fully vested.
Plan Changes and Amendments:
Effective January 1, 1999, the Company match contribution was discussed.
The Company had previously matched 50% of the first $80 of the participant's
monthly before tax contributions and 25% of the balance of the contributions for
the month, up to 6% of the employee's base earnings for the month. Effective
January 1, 1999 the Company began matching 50% of the participant's monthly
before tax contributions, up to 6% of the employee's base earnings for the
month.
Effective December 15, 1999, Illinois Power sold its Clinton Nuclear
Power Plant to AmerGen Energy Company (AmerGen). Under terms of the sales
agreement, the plan accounts for Clinton employees were transferred to AmerGen.
Effective January 21, 2000, $22,008,635 in participants' accounts were
transferred to AmerGen. Incentive compensation contributions due to Clinton
employees were later posted to their Illinois Power accounts and then
transferred to AmerGen in February and March of 2000.
4
<PAGE>
AmerGen's plan would not accept transfer of the Fidelity Brokerage Link.
Employees who participated in this option were asked to liquidate their accounts
and transfer the funds to other funds or to the Fidelity Retirement Money Market
Fund. The trustee liquidated the accounts of employees who did not comply with
the request, and transferred the proceeds to the Fidelity Retirement Money
Market Fund. This fund is not ordinarily an available option for contributions;
it was used only to facilitate the liquidation of the Brokerage Link accounts.
At December 31, 1999, the fund held $449,350.
Contributions:
Participants may make before-tax contributions by payroll deduction up to
the legal dollar limit. Participants may also make after-tax contributions in
cash or by payroll deduction. Total contributions are limited to the applicable
percentage limit set by law. A participant may also "roll-over" into the Plan
amounts previously invested in another retirement plan.
Participants have the option of investing their contributions into any or
all of the investment funds in the proportions they choose. They may change
their investment options or transfer amounts from fund to fund at any time.
Amounts are transferred to or from the Illinois Power Company Incentive Savings
Plan as participant's shift out of or into positions covered by a collective
bargaining agreement. These transfers are shown in the Statement of Changes in
Net Assets Available for Benefits with Fund Information as Plan-to-Plan
Transfers.
The Company contributes a monthly matching contribution to the Plan equal
to 50% of the participants' monthly before-tax contributions per month, up to 6%
of the employee's base earnings for the month. All Company matching
contributions are paid in units of Illinova common stock and are contained in
the Stock Fund. Dividends on stock held in the Stock Fund are also invested in
the Illinova Stock Fund.
The Company has an Incentive Compensation arrangement in which all
participants employed by the Company on the last day of the Plan year are
eligible to earn cash and Illinova stock if specified performance goals are met.
Units awarded under the Incentive Compensation arrangement are held in the Stock
Fund. Dividends earned on these units are also invested in the Stock Fund.
Shares previously held in the Tax Reduction Act Stock Ownership Plan
(TRASOP), which was eliminated in 1988, are also held in the Stock Fund.
ESOP:
In October 1990, the Board of Directors authorized amendments to the
Incentive Savings Plan to provide for the implementation of an Employee Stock
Ownership Plan (ESOP) arrangement. Under this arrangement, the Company, pursuant
to authorization granted by the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC), loaned $35
million to the Trustee of the ESOP in January 1991. The loan proceeds were used
to purchase 2,031,445 shares of the Company's common stock on the open market.
These shares are held in a suspense account under the Plans and are being
distributed to the accounts of participating employees as the loan is repaid by
the Trustee with funds contributed by Illinois Power, together with dividends on
5
<PAGE>
the shares acquired with the loan proceeds. The shares are allocated to the
accounts of eligible participating employees as they are earned through the
Match or Incentive Compensation features of the Plan.
As of December 31, 1999, 416,792 and 340,566 shares have been allocated
to bargaining unit employees for Matching Contributions and Company Incentive
Contributions, respectively.
Distributions:
Distributions as provided for in the Plan are made to retired Plan
participants or their beneficiaries. Distributions must begin by April 1st of
the calendar year following the later of the calendar year in which the employee
reaches age 70 1/2 or the calendar year in which the employee retires. All
distributions are made in the form of cash and/or Illinova common stock.
Forfeitures:
Each participant is responsible for supplying the Company with a current
address. If the address of the participant (or the participant's beneficiary in
the event of participant's death) is not known to the Company within four years
(three years in the event of participant's death) of the date on which
distribution may first be made, the adjusted balance in the participant's
account shall be deemed a forfeiture and shall be used to reduce matching
contributions and company incentive contributions. In the event that the
participant or beneficiary makes a valid claim for the forfeited amount, the
benefits shall be reinstated.
Loans:
The Plan allows participants to borrow from their before-tax and TRASOP
accounts an amount not to exceed the lesser of $50,000 reduced by the excess of
the highest outstanding balance of loans during the one-year period before the
date the loan is made over the outstanding balance of loans on the date the loan
is made or 50% of the vested account balance. Interest is charged on these loans
at a rate commensurate with interest rates charged by persons in the business of
lending money for similar type loans. For 1999, the interest rate ranged from
8.75% to 9.00%; the rate for 1998 ranged from 8.75% to 9.50%.
All loans made will mature and be payable in full no earlier than one
year and no later than five years from the date of the loan. An exception exists
when the loan is used by the participant to acquire his or her principal
residence. In this case, the loan will mature and be payable in full no earlier
than one year and no later than ten years from the date of the loan. Loan
repayments are made by payroll deductions authorized by the participant and by
optional cash payments. Interest paid on the loan is credited to the
participant's account. The Trustee maintains a Loan Fund to hold the balances of
participants' loans.
Plan Termination:
The right to amend, modify or terminate the Plan is reserved by the
Company provided that such action does not retroactively and adversely affect
the rights of any participant or beneficiary under the Plan. See Note 6,
Subsequent Event.

<PAGE>
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Basis of Accounting:
The accompanying Plan financial statements are prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting.
Investments:
Participant notes receivable included in the loan fund are valued at
cost, which approximates fair value. Other investments are stated at current
value based on the latest quoted market price.
Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest
rate, market, and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain
investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the
value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes
in risks in the near term could materially affect the amounts reported in the
Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits.
Income:
Interest and dividend income is accrued as earned.
Net appreciation (depreciation) of investments is comprised of realized
and unrealized gains and losses. Realized gains or losses represent the
difference between proceeds received upon sale and the average cost of the
investment. Unrealized gain or loss is the difference between market value and
cost of investments retained in the Plan (at financial statement date). For the
purpose of allocation to participants, the Illinova common stock is valued by
the Plan at market value on the date of allocation and current value is used at
the time of distribution to participants resulting in a realized gain or loss
and is reflected in the Net Appreciation in Fair Value of Investments in the
Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits.
Expenses:
Certain expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan are paid by
the Plan rather than the Company. The expenses paid by the Plan include ESOP
record keeping fees and trustee administrative fees. All other expenses incurred
in the operation of the Plan are paid by the Company.
Income Taxes:
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
letter dated January 8, 1996, that the Plan and related trust are designed in
accordance with applicable sections of the IRC. The plan has been amended since
receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan Administrator and the
Plan's tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is currently being
operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.
