                                     PART I
                                     ------

Item 1. BUSINESS
        --------

ORGANIZATION

       Indianapolis  Power & Light Company (IPL) is an operating  public utility
incorporated  under the laws of the state of Indiana on October 27, 1926. IPL is
a wholly-owned  subsidiary of IPALCO  Enterprises,  Inc.  (IPALCO).  IPALCO is a
holding company incorporated under the laws of the state of Indiana on September
14, 1983. All common stock of IPL is owned by IPALCO.

       IPL has two business segments, electric and "all other." Steam operations
of IPL are in the "all  other"  segment  (see Note 14 in the Notes to  Financial
Statements for additional information about segments).

GENERAL

       IPL is engaged  primarily in generating,  transmitting,  distributing and
selling  electric  energy in the city of Indianapolis  and  neighboring  cities,
towns,  communities,  and adjacent rural areas, all within the state of Indiana,
the most distant point being about 40 miles from Indianapolis. It also produces,
distributes and sells steam within a limited area in such city.  There have been
no significant changes in the services rendered, or in the markets or methods of
distribution, since the beginning of the fiscal year. IPL intends to do business
of the same general  character  as that in which it is now engaged.  Indiana law
authorizes electricity suppliers to have exclusive retail service areas.

       IPL's business is not dependent on any single  customer or group of a few
customers. IPL's electricity sales for 1995-1999 are depicted on page I-4.

       The electric  utility  business is affected by seasonal  weather patterns
throughout  the year and,  therefore,  the  operating  revenues  and  associated
operating expenses are not generated evenly by month during the year.

       IPL's  generation,  transmission  and distribution  facilities  (electric
system) are described in Item 2, "PROPERTIES." IPL's electric system is directly
interconnected with the electric systems of Indiana Michigan Power Company,  PSI
Energy,  Inc.,  Southern Indiana Gas and Electric  Company,  Wabash Valley Power
Association,  Hoosier  Energy Rural Electric  Cooperative,  Inc. and the Indiana
Municipal Power Agency.

       Also, IPL is a member of the East Central Area Reliability  Group (ECAR),
and is cooperating under an agreement that provides for coordinated  planning of
generation and  transmission  facilities and the operation of such facilities to
promote  reliability  of bulk power supply in the  nine-state  region  served by
ECAR.  Smaller electric utility systems,  independent  power producers and power
marketers participate as associate members.

REGULATION

       IPL is subject to regulation by the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission
(IURC)  as  to  its  services  and  facilities,   valuation  of  property,   the
construction,   purchase   or   lease   of   electric   generating   facilities,
classification of accounts, rates of depreciation,  rates and charges,  issuance
of securities  (other than  evidences of  indebtedness  payable less than twelve
months  after the date of issue),  the  acquisition  and sale of public  utility
properties or securities  and certain other matters (see Note 10 in the Notes to
Financial Statements).

       In addition,  IPL is subject to the  jurisdiction  of the Federal  Energy
Regulatory   Commission  (FERC),  with  respect  to  short-term  borrowings  not
regulated  by the  IURC,  the  sale  and  transmission  of  electric  energy  in
interstate commerce,  the classification of its accounts and the acquisition and
sale of utility  property  in certain  circumstances  as provided by the Federal
Power Act.

       IPL is also subject to federal,  state and local  environmental  laws and
regulations,  particularly as to generating station discharges affecting air and
water quality. The impact of compliance with such regulations on the capital and
operating costs of IPL has been and will continue to be substantial (see Item 7,
"MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL  CONDITION  AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS" under "Competition and Industry Changes").
 .
RETAIL RATEMAKING

       IPL's tariffs for electric and steam service to retail  customers  (basic
rates and charges) are set and approved by the IURC after public hearings.  Such
proceedings,  which have occurred at irregular intervals, involve IPL, the staff
of the IURC, the Office of the Indiana Utility  Consumer  Counselor,  as well as
other  interested  consumer  groups and customers.  In Indiana,  basic rates and
charges are determined after giving consideration,  on a pro-forma basis, to all
allowable  costs for  ratemaking  purposes  including  a fair return on the fair
value of the utility property used and useful in providing service to customers.
Once set, the basic rates and charges  authorized do not assure the  realization
of a fair return on the fair value of  property.  Pursuant to statute,  the IURC
conducts a periodic  review of the basic rates and charges of all  utilities  at
least once every four years. Other numerous factors  including,  but not limited
to,  weather,  inflation,  customer  growth  and  usage,  the  level  of  actual
maintenance and capital expenditures,  fuel costs,  generating unit availability
and  purchased  power  costs and  availability  can affect the return  realized.
During 1998, in an order  resulting from an IPL initiated  proceeding,  the IURC
declined to exercise its jurisdiction in part over IPL customers who voluntarily
select service under IPL's Elect Plan option.  Under two of these  options,  the
customer's  prices are not adjusted for changes in fuel costs or other  factors.
During 1999,  the total revenue from  customers  choosing the Elect Plan options
was $68  million.  The  Elect  Plan  will  expire  in  September  2001  unless a
subsequent plan is approved by the IURC.  Substantially  all other IPL customers
are served  pursuant to retail  tariffs that provide for the monthly  billing or
crediting to customers of increases or  decreases,  respectively,  in the actual
costs of fuel  consumed  from  estimated  fuel costs  embedded in base  tariffs,
subject to certain restrictions on the level of operating income.  Additionally,
most such  retail  tariffs  provide  for  billing of "lost  revenue  margins" on
estimated  kilowatt-hour  (kWh) sales reductions along with current and deferred
costs resulting from IPL's IURC-approved  demand side management programs (DSM).
IPL  maintains  its  books  and  records   consistent  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles  reflecting  the impact of regulation  (see Note 1 in the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Item 7, "MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL  CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS" under "Nature of
Operations and Regulatory Matters").

       Future events,  including the advent of retail  competition  within IPL's
service  territory,  could result in the  deregulation of part of IPL's existing
regulated  businesses  (see  "Competition  and  Industry  Changes"  in  Item  7,
"MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL  CONDITION  AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS"). Upon deregulation,  adjustments to IPL's accounting records may be
required to eliminate  the  historical  impact of  regulatory  accounting.  Such
adjustments,  as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 101
(SFAS 101),  "Regulated  Enterprises  - Accounting  for the  Discontinuation  of
Application  of FASB  Statement  No. 71," would  eliminate  the  "effects of any
actions of regulators that have been  recognized as assets and  liabilities...."
Required  adjustments  could include expensing of any unamortized net regulatory
assets,  elimination of certain tax liabilities and a write down of any impaired
utility plant balances.  IPL does not expect to be required to adopt SFAS 101 in
the near term.

FUEL

       In  1999,  approximately  99% of  the  total  kWh  produced  by IPL  were
generated from coal. Natural gas, No. 2 fuel oil and purchased steam combined to
provide  the  remaining  kWh  generation.  Natural  gas is used in  IPL's  newer
combustion turbines.  In addition to use in oil-fired generating units, fuel oil
is used for start up and flame stabilization in coal-fired generating units.

       IPL's long-term coal contracts  provide for the major portion of its burn
requirements  through the year 2005. The long-term coal agreements are with four
suppliers  and the  coal is  mined  entirely  in the  state  of  Indiana.  It is
presently  believed  that all coal  used by IPL  will be  mined by  others.  IPL
normally  carries  fuel oil and a 60-day  supply  of coal to  offset  unforeseen
occurrences  such as labor  disputes,  equipment  breakdowns  and power sales to
other  utilities.  IPL increases its stockpile to an  approximate  80-day supply
when strikes are  anticipated in the coal industry.  In preparation for possible
supply problems with Year 2000 issues,  IPL temporarily  increased its stockpile
to an approximate 100-day supply at the end of 1999.

EMPLOYEE RELATIONS

       As of  December  31,  1999,  IPL had  1,936  employees  of whom  971 were
represented  by the  International  Brotherhood of Electrical  Workers,  AFL-CIO
(IBEW) and 307 were represented by the Electric Utility Workers Union (EUWU), an
independent  labor  organization.  In September 1999, the membership of the IBEW
ratified a new labor  agreement  that remains in effect until December 16, 2002.
The agreement provided for general pay adjustments of 4% in December 1999 and 2%
in both 2000 and 2001,  and  changes in pension  and health  care  coverage.  In
February of 1998, the membership of the EUWU ratified a new labor agreement that
remains in effect until February of 2001. The agreement provided for general pay
adjustments of 3% in both 1998 and 1999, as well as an adjustment of 2% in 2000.
The agreement also provides for increases in pension amounts.

       Net  electrical  generation  during 1999,  at the  Petersburg,  Stout and
Pritchard stations accounted for about 69.0%, 23.3% and 7.7%,  respectively,  of
IPL's total net  generation.  Perry K produced all of the steam generated by IPL
for the steam  system.  In addition,  IPL  purchases  steam from an  independent
resource recovery system in Indianapolis.

        Included in the above  totals are three gas  turbine  units at the Stout
station  added in 1973,  one gas turbine added in 1994 and one gas turbine added
in 1995 with a combined  nameplate rating of 214 MW. Also included is one diesel
unit each at Pritchard  and Stout  stations and three diesel units at Petersburg
station, all added in 1967. Each diesel unit has a nameplate rating of 3 MW.

       During 1998, IPL announced  plans to construct up to 200 megawatts of new
combustion  turbines  (CTs).  The new  turbines  would be used  during  times of
highest or "peak"  electric  demand.  One  turbine is  expected  to be placed in
service by June 2000, and is included in the construction  forecast. IPL filed a
petition with the IURC  recommending that the IURC decline its jurisdiction over
IPL's planned construction and operation of the new CTs and adopt an alternative
procedure for dealing with the sale of power produced by the CTs to IPL's retail
customers.  During 1999, the IURC agreed to decline to exercise its jurisdiction
over the  construction  of the CTs.  The  Commission  also  agreed  to defer any
determinations regarding all ratemaking issues until a later proceeding.

       IPL's  transmission  system  includes  457 circuit  miles of 345,000 volt
lines,  359  circuit  miles of 138,000  volt lines and 269 miles of 34,500  volt
lines.  Underground  distribution  and service  facilities  include 686 miles of
conduit  and  6,487  wire  miles  of  conductor.   Underground  street  lighting
facilities  include 108 miles of conduit and 760 wire miles of  conductor.  Also
included  in the  system  are 73  bulk  power  substations  and 69  distribution
substations.

       Steam distribution properties include 22 miles of mains with 238 customer
connections.  Other properties  include coal and other minerals,  underlying 798
acres in Sullivan County, Indiana, and coal underlying about 6,215 acres in Pike
and Gibson  Counties,  Indiana.  IPL owns  approximately  4,067  acres in Morgan
County, Indiana and approximately 884 acres in Switzerland County,  Indiana, for
future plant sites.

       All  critical  facilities  owned  by IPL  are  well  maintained,  in good
condition and meet the present needs of IPL.

       The Mortgage  and Deed of Trust of IPL,  together  with the  Supplemental
Indentures thereto (the "Mortgage"),  secure first mortgage bonds issued by IPL.
Pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage,  substantially  all property owned by IPL
is subject to a direct first mortgage lien.

Item 3.       LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
              -----------------

     IPL is a  party  to  State  of  Michigan  et al v.  U.S.  EPA a  proceeding
                          ----------------------------------------
instituted in November,  1998, now pending in the U.S. Court of Appeals for
the  District of Columbia  Circuit.  This is a petition for review of EPA's rule
promulgated  October 27, 1998,  requiring Indiana and 22 other  jurisdictions to
impose more stringent  limitations on emissions of nitrogen oxides (the "NOx SIP
Call").  Petitioners challenging the NOx SIP Call include seven states, about 60
investor-owned electric utility companies, numerous trade associations, serveral
municipal utilities,  co-ops, and labor unions.  Intervenor-respondents  include
several  environmental  interest groups,  Canada, eight states in the Northeast,
and several eastern electric utility companies.

     EPA's NOx SIP Call would require  operators of coal-fired  electric utility
boilers in the affected states to limit NOx emissions to 0.15 pounds per million
BTUs of heat input as a system-wide average. That limit calls for a reduction of
about 85% from 1990 average emissions from coal-fired  electric utility boilers,
and a reduction of about 57% from IPL's current emissions.

     It is not possible to predict  whether  EPA's NOx SIP Call will  ultimately
survive judicial review.  Nor is it possible to predict  accurately the costs of
compliance.  IPL's  preliminary estimates are that the NOx SIP Call would
necessitate capital expenditures of about $180 million.

Item 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

       All common stock of IPL is owned by IPALCO and is not publicly  traded on
any stock exchange.

       Aggregate  dividends  paid on the common  stock were  $129.9  million and
$214.2  million  during  1999 and  1998,  respectively.  Dividends  were paid at
varying intervals as determined by the Board of Directors.

     IPL's  Board of  Directors  declared  a dividend  on common  stock of $12.9
million on November 30, 1999, payable January 15, 2000.

Dividend Restrictions
- ---------------------

       So long as any of the  several  series of bonds of IPL  issued  under the
Mortgage  and  Deed of  Trust,  dated as of May 1,  1940,  as  supplemented  and
modified,  executed  by IPL to  American  National  Bank and  Trust  Company  of
Chicago, as Trustee,  remain  outstanding,  IPL is restricted in the declaration
and payment of dividends,  or other  distribution on shares of its capital stock
of any class, or in the purchase or redemption of such shares,  to the aggregate
of its net income, as defined in Section 47 of such Mortgage, after December 31,
1939.  The amount which these  Mortgage  provisions  would have permitted IPL to
declare and pay as dividends at December 31, 1999, exceeded retained earnings at
that  date.  Such  restrictions  do not apply to the  declaration  or payment of
dividends  upon any  shares  of  capital  stock of any class to an amount in the
aggregate not in excess of $1,107,155,  or to the application to the purchase or
redemption  of any shares of capital stock of any class of amounts not to exceed
in the aggregate the net proceeds received by IPL from the sale of any shares of
its capital  stock of any class  subsequent  to December 31, 1939.  In addition,
pursuant to IPL's Articles of Incorporation, no dividends may be paid or accrued
and no other  distribution may be made on IPL's common stock unless dividends on
all outstanding shares of IPL preferred stock have been paid or declared and set
apart for payment.  The management of IPL believes these  restrictions  will not
materially restrict anticipated dividends.

Item 7.       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
              ---------------------------------------------------------------
              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (INCLUDING ITEM 7A)
              -----------------------------------------

       IPL  has  two  business  segments  (electric  and  "all  other").   Steam
operations  are in the  "all  other"  category  (see  Note  14 in the  Notes  to
Financial Statements).

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

       IPL hereby files cautionary statements identifying important factors that
could cause IPL's actual results to differ  materially  from those  projected in
forward-looking statements of IPL. This Form 10-K, and particularly Management's
Discussion and Analysis,  contains forward-looking  statements.  Forward-looking
statements  express an expectation  or belief and contain a projection,  plan or
assumption with regard to, among other things, future revenues, income, earnings
per share or capital structure.  Such statements of future events or performance
are not guarantees of future performance and involve estimates,  assumptions and
uncertainties.   The  words  "anticipate,"   "believe,"   "estimate,"  "expect,"
"forecast,"  "project,"  "objective,"  and similar  expressions  are intended to
identify forward-looking statements.

       Some important  factors that could cause IPL's actual results or outcomes
to differ  materially  from those  discussed in the  forward-looking  statements
include,  but are not limited to,  fluctuations  in customer  growth and demand,
weather,  fuel costs,  generating unit  availability,  purchased power costs and
availability,  regulatory  action,  environmental  matters,  federal  and  state
legislation, interest rates, labor strikes, maintenance and capital expenditures
and local economic conditions.  In addition,  IPL's ability to have available an
appropriate  amount of production  capacity in a timely manner can significantly
affect IPL's financial performance.  The timing of deregulation and competition,
product development and technology changes are also important potential factors

       All such factors are difficult to predict, contain uncertainties that may
materially affect actual results and are beyond the control of IPL.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

                   Nature of Operations and Regulatory Matters
                   -------------------------------------------
Regulation
- ----------

       IPL is a regulated public utility and is principally engaged in providing
electric and steam service to the Indianapolis metropolitan area. As a regulated
entity,  IPL is  required  to  use  certain  accounting  methods  prescribed  by
regulatory bodies which may differ from those accounting  methods required to be
used by nonregulated entities (see Note 1 in the Notes to Financial Statements).

       IPL is subject to  extensive  regulation  at both the  federal  and state
level.  IPL is  substantially  affected by the  regulatory  jurisdiction  of the
Environmental  Protection Agency and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission at
the federal level and the Indiana Department of Environmental Management and the
Indiana  Utility  Regulatory   Commission  (IURC)  at  the  state  level.  Other
significant regulatory agencies affecting IPL include but are not limited to the
U.S.  Department  of  Labor  and the  Indiana  Occupational  Safety  and  Health
Administration.  The regulatory power of the IURC over IPL is both comprehensive
and typical of the economic regulation generally imposed by state public utility
commissions over investor-owned utilities.

       An inherent  business risk facing any regulated public utility is that of
unexpected or adverse  regulatory  action.  Regulatory  discretion is reasonably
broad in Indiana,  as elsewhere.  Therefore,  IPL attempts to work cooperatively
with  regulators  and those who  participate in the  regulatory  process,  while
remaining  vigilant  and  steadfast  in  protecting  IPL's  legal  rights in the
regulatory  process.  IPL takes an active role in addressing  regulatory  policy
issues in the current regulatory environment which is subject to rapid change in
large  part  because of the trend  toward  restructuring  of the  United  States
electric utility industry and increased activity by environmental regulators.

Elect Plan
- ----------

       In 1998, the IURC approved a plan that allows IPL to offer customers with
less than 2,000  kilowatts  of demand an  opportunity  to choose  from  optional
payment or service plans.  IPL's authority to offer these options will expire on
September 18, 2001, and any contracts  entered into thereunder must terminate on
or before that date unless a subsequent plan is approved by the IURC.

       Under the plan,  eligible IPL customers may enter into written  contracts
for:

      Fixed Rate - Pay a guaranteed  fixed rate per unit of consumption  for one
      or more years.

      Green Power - Purchase  environmentally friendly or "green"
      power.

       Additionally,  residential  customers  may choose a "Sure  Bill"  option,
paying  the  same  bill  each  month  for 12  months,  regardless  of  how  much
electricity  is used.  Customers not choosing one of these  options  continue to
receive electric service under existing  tariffs.  (See Item 1, BUSINESS,  under
the subheading "Retail Ratemaking.")

Authorized Annual Operating Income
- ----------------------------------

       During  quarterly  fuel  adjustment   clause   proceedings,   the  annual
jurisdictional operating income of IPL's electric business is subject to review.
IPL's steam business is subject to annual fuel  adjustment  clause  proceedings.
Customer refunds could result if actual annual  jurisdictional  operating income
exceeds  levels  authorized  by the IURC (see  Note 1 in the Notes to  Financial
Statements).  IPL does not anticipate  any customer  refunds to result from such
reviews during 2000.


                        Competition and Industry Changes
                        --------------------------------

       In  recent  years,  various  forms  of  proposed   industry-restructuring
legislation  and/or rulemakings have been introduced at the federal level and in
several states.  Generally,  the intent of these  initiatives is to encourage an
increase in competition  within the regulated  electric utility industry.  While
federal  rulemaking to date has addressed  only the electric  wholesale  market,
various state  legislatures  are  considering or have enacted new laws impacting
the retail energy markets within their  respective  states.  A discussion of the
legislative and regulatory initiatives most likely to affect IPL follows:

Wholesale Energy Market
- -----------------------

       In April 1996, the Federal  Energy  Regulatory  Commission  (FERC) issued
Orders 888 and 889  concerning  open access  transmission  service for wholesale
sales.  These Orders require all utilities under FERC  jurisdiction  to: 1. file
open,  nondiscriminatory   transmission  access  tariffs  with  FERC;  2.  offer
transmission   to  eligible   customers   comparable  to  service  they  provide
themselves;  and 3. take service under the tariffs for their own wholesale sales
and purchases of electricity.  IPL filed its open access  transmission tariff on
January 6, 2000.  Historically,  FERC has issued an order  making  such  tariffs
effective  as of their date of  filing.  FERC  Order 888 also  provides  for the
recovery of utility  stranded costs which are defined as the difference  between
revenues  received by utilities under  traditional  ratemaking and  market-based
prices.

       In  December  1999,  FERC  issued  Order  2000,  which  provides  for the
voluntary  formation of regional  transmission  organizations  (RTOs),  entities
created to operate,  plan and control utility  transmission  assets.  Order 2000
also  prescribes  certain   characteristics  and  functions  of  acceptable  RTO
proposals.  The rule requires all public  utilities that own, operate or control
interstate  transmission to individually file in October 2000, either a proposal
to join an RTO or the reasons for not participating in an RTO.

Retail Energy Market
- --------------------

       The  legislatures  of several states have enacted,  and many other states
are  considering,  new laws that would allow  various forms of  competition  for
retail sales of electric  energy.  While each state proposal is different,  most
provide for some recovery of a utility's  stranded costs and require an extended
transition  period before  competition is fully effective.  Additionally,  a few
states have  implemented  pilot programs that experiment with allowing some form
of customer choice of electricity suppliers.

       In Indiana,  competition  among electric  energy  providers for sales has
focused  primarily  on the  sale of bulk  power to other  public  and  municipal
utilities.  Indiana law provides  for  electricity  suppliers to have  exclusive
retail service areas.

       In  1995,  the  Indiana   General   Assembly,   anticipating   increasing
competitive  forces in the  regulated  public  utility  industry,  enacted  I.C.
8-1-2.5.  This law enables the IURC to consider  and approve,  on an  individual
utility basis, utility-initiated proposals wherein the IURC declines to exercise
jurisdiction  over the whole or any part of the  utility,  or its retail  energy
service or both. The IPL Elect Plan was approved by the IURC under this law.

       During 1997, the Indiana General Assembly  authorized a legislative study
committee to assess the issue of electric utility competition and restructuring.
A comprehensive restructuring bill was introduced in the Indiana Senate in 1998,
but  failed  to  pass.  Subsequently,  comprehensive  restructuring  bills  were
submitted in both 1999 and 2000 and also failed to pass.  IPL  continues to work
cooperatively   with  other  electric  utilities  in  Indiana  regarding  future
legislation.  However, the outcome of such efforts is uncertain.

National Ambient Air Quality Standards
- --------------------------------------

       On July 16, 1997, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
promulgated  final rules tightening the National  Ambient Air Quality  Standards
for ozone and creating new fine  particulate  matter  standards.  On October 29,
1999,  after conducting a rehearing of its initial decision of May 14, 1999, the
United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia  Circuit  determined
that  the new  ozone  standards  were not  issued  lawfully,  but left  open the
question of future remedy. The Court also determined that the standards for fine
particulate  matter  were  legally  deficient  in  certain  respects.   EPA  has
petitioned the Supreme Court to review the Court of Appeals' decision.

NOx SIP Call
- ------------

       On October 27, 1998,  EPA issued a final rule calling for Indiana,  along
with 22 other jurisdictions in the eastern third of the United States, to impose
more  stringent  limits on nitrogen  oxides (NOx) from  fossil-fuel  fired steam
electric generators, such as those operated by IPL. This rule (the NOx SIP Call)
was based in part on the new ozone  standards  that were later held  unlawful in
the Court of Appeals'  decision  discussed above. In a separate  decision on May
25, 1999, the Court of Appeals  stayed the  compliance  deadlines in the NOx SIP
Call.

       Because  power  plants  emit  nitrogen  oxides,  as well as  certain  air
pollutants that may contribute to formation of fine particulate matter, existing
IPL sources may be required to be  retrofitted  with  additional  air  pollution
controls in the future, either as a result of EPA's 1997 and 1998 regulations or
due to future regulatory actions. IPL is a party to litigation  concerning EPA's
1997 and 1998 final regulations, and that litigation is still in progress.

       EPA's NOx SIP Call would require operators of coal-fired electric utility
boilers in the affected states to limit NOx emissions to 0.15 pounds per million
BTUs of heat input as a system-wide average. That limit calls for a reduction of
about 85% from 1990 average emissions from coal-fired  electric utility boilers,
and a reduction of about 57% from IPL's current emissions.

       It is not possible to predict  whether EPA's NOx SIP Call will ultimately
survive judicial review.  Nor is it possible at this time to predict  accurately
the costs of compliance.  IPL's preliminary  estimates are that the NOx SIP Call
would necessitate capital expenditures of about $180 million.

       The  Indiana   Department  of   Environmental   Management  has  recently
circulated a draft rule  calling for  coal-fired  electric  utilities to meet an
emission  limit  of 0.25  pounds  of NOx per  million  BTUs of heat  input  on a
company-wide basis.  Preliminary estimates are that compliance with such a limit
would call for IPL to expend  capital of  approximately  $81 million.  It is not
possible to predict whether the draft rule will ever become effective.

       As to  timing,  if  either  of the  requirements  discussed  in  the  two
preceding  paragraphs  became  effective,  they  would  likely do so during  the
2000-2001 period and would probably necessitate deployment of capital during the
period between 2002 and 2005. There can be no certainty about these estimates.

       IPL expects to refine the above estimates as engineering studies progress
and when, as, and if such rules become effective.

           Liquidity, Financing Requirements and Capital Market Access
           -----------------------------------------------------------

       Liquidity  is the  ability  of an  entity  to  meet  its  short-term  and
long-term cash needs.  IPL's  liquidity is a function of its ability to generate
internal  funds,  its  construction  program,  its mortgage  covenants  and loan
agreements and its access to external capital markets.

       Sustaining investment grade debt ratings is also a key element for having
adequate  liquidity and financial  flexibility.  As of December 31, 1999,  IPL's
senior secured debt was rated AA- by Standard & Poor's,  Aa2 by Moody's Investor
Services and AA by Duff & Phelps,  and IPL's  commercial paper was rated A-1+ by
Standard & Poor's,  P-1 by Moody's  Investor  Services and D-1 by Duff & Phelps.
IPL  expects  to be able to  maintain  investment  grade debt  ratings  into the
foreseeable future.

       During 1999, IPL refinanced its $23.5 million 7.45% Series first mortgage
bonds with the use of proceeds from a $23.5  million  unsecured  note.  The 1999
Series note has an interest  rate based on  tax-exempt  auction  rates and has a
maturity  date  of  August  1,  2030  (see  Note 7 in  the  Notes  to  Financial
Statements).

       IPL has no  long-term  debt that  matures  during  2000.  However,  other
existing higher-rate debt may be refinanced depending upon market conditions.

       During the next five  years,  IPL  expects to meet its cash  requirements
without any  additional  permanent  financing.  Cash flows from  operations  and
temporary short-term  borrowings are projected to provide the funds required for
IPL's  construction  program.  See the following  section for  discussion of the
construction program.

                               Future Performance
                               ------------------

       Traditionally,   retail  KWH  sales,   after   adjustments   for  weather
variations,  have  grown  in  reasonable  correlation  with  growth  in  service
territory  economic  activity.  During the past 10 years, IPL's retail KWH sales
have grown at a compound  annual rate of 2.0%,  while the  Indianapolis  economy
grew at an annual rate of 2.5%. The Indianapolis  economy is expected to grow at
an annual rate of 2.7% for 2000 through 2004,  according to the Kelley School of
Business at Indiana University.

       IPL's  wholesale KWH sales  decreased 12% in 1999 over the level achieved
in 1998 largely as a result of planned and unplanned generating unit outages. As
IPL's  retail  sales  grow the  amount  of  generating  capacity  available  for
wholesale  sales is more  limited.  The  ability  to sell  power  in the  highly
competitive  wholesale market is also highly dependent on market  conditions and
the level and frequency of unplanned outages.  IPL is unable to predict with any
degree of certainty the level of wholesale sales that may be achieved in 2000.

       Operating and  maintenance  expenses were $425.0  million in 1999.  These
expenses in 2000 will be influenced by the level of KWH  generation,  generating
unit availability and overhaul costs,  cost control programs and inflation.  IPL
depends on purchased power, in part, to meet its retail  obligations.  Purchased
power costs are highly  volatile and,  therefore,  IPL is unable to predict with
any degree of certainty the level of those costs for 2000.

       IPL's  construction  program  for  the  three-year  period  2000-2002  is
estimated to cost $294.0  million  including  AFUDC.  The estimated  cost of the
program  by year (in  millions)  is $106.5 in 2000,  $103.9 in 2001 and $83.6 in
2002. It includes $152.2 million for additions,  improvements  and extensions to
transmission  and  distribution  lines,  substations,  power  factor and voltage
regulating equipment,  distribution transformers and street lighting facilities.
The  construction  program  also  includes  $6.6 million for  construction  of a
100-megawatt  combustion  turbine  expected to be in service by June 2000. These
projected  amounts  also  include  $20.7  million of costs  associated  with new
environmental  standards proposed by the EPA which are currently under appeal in
the United States Court of Appeals (see "Competition and Industry Changes").

                                      -----

Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change
- --------------------------------------

       On December 31, 1997, effective January 1, 1997, IPL adopted the unbilled
revenue  method of  accounting  for all electric and steam sales to more closely
match revenues with expenses.  Under this method,  IPL accrues  revenues for all
electric and steam  energy  delivered  to  customers  during the period  whether
billed or not. Previously,  IPL recognized these revenues only as customers were
billed,  with the service rendered after monthly meter reading dates through the
end of a calendar month recognized as operating revenues in the following month.
The cumulative effect of this change in accounting method as of January 1, 1997,
net of income  taxes,  was a one-time  income  increase of $18.3 million and was
reported as a separate  component of net income for 1997. This accounting change
does not  affect  IPL's  cash  flow or  liquidity  (see  Note 3 in the  Notes to
Financial Statements).

Preferred Stock, Debt Issuance  and Dividend Restrictions
- ------------------------------  -------------------------

       Restrictions  on IPL's  ability to issue  certain  securities or pay cash
dividends  are  contained in its Mortgage and Deed of Trust  (Mortgage)  and its
Amended Articles of Incorporation (Articles). The Articles require that, so long
as any shares of  preferred  stock are  outstanding,  the net income of IPL,  as
specified therein,  be at least one and one-half times the total interest on the
funded debt and the pro forma dividend requirements on the outstanding,  and any
proposed,  preferred stock before any additional  preferred stock is issued. The
Mortgage requires that net earnings as calculated thereunder be two and one-half
times  the  annual  interest   requirements   before  additional  bonds  can  be
authenticated  on the basis of property  additions.  Based on IPL's net earnings
for the 12 months ended December 31, 1999, the ratios under the Articles and the
Mortgage are 5.05 and 12.35, respectively.

       So long as any of the  several  series of bonds of IPL  issued  under its
Mortgage  remain  outstanding,   and  subject  to  certain  exceptions,  IPL  is
restricted in the declaration and payment of dividends, or other distribution on
shares of its capital  stock of any class,  or in the purchase or  redemption of
such shares,  to the  aggregate  of its net income,  as defined in Section 47 of
such  Mortgage,  after  December  31,  1939.  The amount  which  these  Mortgage
provisions  would have permitted IPL to declare and pay as dividends at December
31, 1999,  exceeded  retained  earnings at that date.  In addition,  pursuant to
IPL's  Articles,  no dividends may be paid or accrued and no other  distribution
may be made on IPL's common stock unless dividends on all outstanding  shares of
IPL preferred stock have been paid or declared and set apart for payment

       IPL believes these  requirements will not restrict any anticipated future
financings or cash dividend payments.  At December 31, 1999, and considering all
existing restrictions,  IPL had the capacity to issue approximately $1.2 billion
of additional long-term debt.

Market Risk Sensitive Instruments and Positions
- -----------------------------------------------

       The  primary  market  risk to which IPL is exposed is related to interest
rate  risk.  IPL uses  long-term  debt as a  primary  source of  capital  in its
business.  A portion of this debt has an  interest  component  that  resets on a
periodic basis to reflect current market  conditions.  IPL had $455.3 million of
fixed rate and $173.5  million of variable rate  long-term  debt  outstanding at
December 31, 1999. The weighted  average  interest rates of IPL's fixed rate and
variable rate long-term debt were 6.7% and 3.8%,  respectively,  at December 31,
1999.  The fair values of the fixed rate and variable rate  long-term  debt were
$441.6 million and $173.5 million at December 31, 1999.  IPL's $80 million 6.05%
Series first mortgage bond matures in February 2004.

       To manage IPL's exposure to  fluctuations  in interest rates and to lower
funding costs,  IPL has entered into an interest rate swap. Under this swap, IPL
agrees with counterparties to exchange,  at specified intervals,  the difference
between  fixed-rate and floating-rate  interest amounts  calculated on an agreed
notional amount.  This interest  differential  paid or received is recognized in
the  statements  of income as a component of interest  expense.  At December 31,
1999,  IPL's interest rate swap agreement had a notional  amount of $40 million,
and it expires in January  2023.  IPL agrees to pay  interest at a fixed rate of
5.21%  to a swap  counter  party  and  receive  a  variable  rate  based  on the
tax-exempt  weekly rate.  The fair value of this swap agreement was $0.4 million
at December 31, 1999.

Year 2000
- ---------

       IPL has not  discovered  any  significant  problems  associated  with its
systems as a result of the year  change from 1999 to 2000.  It is unlikely  that
any such  problems  will be  encountered  in the  future.  However,  should such
problems  occur,  IPL has  established a Year 2000 Committee  which would act to
correct any problems as a result of the year  changeover.  It is not likely that
any such occurrences  would have a material effect on the financial  position or
results of operations of the Company.

Cash Flows
- ----------

       Additional   information  regarding  IPL's  historical  cash  flows  from
operations,  investing  and  financing  for the past three years,  including the
capital expenditures of IPL, is disclosed in the Statements of Cash Flows and in
the Notes to Financial Statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

       Income  applicable  to common  stock  decreased  by $3.0  million in 1999
compared to 1998. Income applicable to common stock decreased by $3.0 million in
1998  compared  to  1997.  The  following  discussion   highlights  the  factors
contributing to these decreases.

Utility Operating Revenues
- --------------------------

     Operating  revenues in 1999 and 1998 increased from the prior year by $13.4
million and $44.8 million, respectively. The increases in revenues resulted from
the following:

                                                         Increase (Decrease)

       The  increase in retail KWH sales in 1999  primarily  was due to economic
growth in Indianapolis.  The increase in 1998 also reflected  economic growth in
Indianapolis,  as well as an increase  in cooling  degree days during the summer
partially  offset by a decrease in heating  degree days.  Actual and  percentage
changes in electric  customers and in heating and cooling  degree days for these
periods are as follows:

                                                 Increase (Decrease)
                                                 -------------------

Electric Residential Customers       5,856      1.5%          5,257      1.4%
Commercial & Industrial Customers      451      1.0%          1,169      2.6%

Heating Degree Days                    448     10.1%         (1,261)   (22.2)%
Cooling Degree Days                   (73)     (5.8)%           381     43.8%

       A change in the estimate for unbilled  revenue was made during 1999.  The
changes  in fuel  revenues  in  1999  and  1998  from  the  prior  year  reflect
differences  in fuel  costs  billed to  customers.  Wholesale  sales  were $41.2
million, $51.1 million and $23.1 million for 1999, 1998 and 1997,  respectively.
The  decrease in  wholesale  revenues  in 1999 was a result of both  planned and
unplanned  generating  unit  outages  during  1999.  The  increase in  wholesale
revenues during 1998 reflected  increased wholesale marketing efforts and energy
requirements  of other  utilities.  The decrease in other  revenues  during 1999
reflects decreased service revenues.

Utility Operating Expenses
- --------------------------

       Fuel  expense  decreased  in 1999  by $7.2  million  due  primarily  to a
decrease  in deferred  fuel cost and a 0.3%  decrease  in  generation  caused by
unscheduled unit outages.  During 1998, fuel expense  increased by $16.5 million
primarily as a result of increased total KWH sales.

       Other operating expenses decreased $18.3 million in 1999 primarily due to
decreased  administrative  and general  expenses of $10.5  million and increased
sales of emission  allowances of $4.8 million  (reduced  operating  expenses) as
well as other  cost  improvements.  The  decreased  administrative  and  general
expenses  were  primarily  due to  decreased  benefits  expense  as  well as the
non-recurrence of a $2.2 million charge in 1998 for a voluntary early retirement
and separation program. During 1998, other operating expenses increased from the
prior year by $12.3 million. The increase in 1998 was partially due to increased
administrative  and general  expenses of $7.7 million.  This increase was due to
the  voluntary  early  retirement  and  separation  program as well as increased
outside  services and  increased  labor costs.  Electric  distribution  expenses
increased  $1.7 million and  production  expenses  increased $1.5 million during
1998.

       Power purchased increased by $22.6 million during 1999 as a result of the
combination  of higher market prices for  scheduled  summer  peaking power and a
$13.0 million  increase in  replacement  power costs due to the  unusually  high
level of generating  unit outages  during peak  electricity  demand in the third
quarter of 1999.  Power  purchased  decreased  $0.7  million  during 1998 due to
decreased demand charges partially offset by increased purchases of KWH.

       Maintenance  expenses increased by $4.1 million during 1999 and decreased
by $3.2 million during 1998.  These  variances  primarily  reflect the timing of
major generating unit overhauls.

       Taxes other than  income  taxes  decreased  by $0.9  million  during 1999
primarily  due to decreased  employment  taxes.  During  1998,  taxes other than
income  taxes  increased  $2.0  million  from the prior  period due to increased
property taxes, gross income taxes and employment taxes.

     Income taxes - net  increased in both 1999 and 1998 from the prior years by
$4.3 million and $6.9 million, respectively.  These changes reflect increases in
pretax operating income.

Other Income And Deductions
- ---------------------------

       Allowance for equity funds used during construction did not change during
1999 from the prior period.  During 1998, allowance for equity funds used during
construction  decreased $2.1 million. In mid-1997,  the amortization of deferred
carrying charges on a plant asset ended, contributing to this decrease.

       Other-net,  which  includes  the pretax  non-operating  income  from IPL,
increased by $2.3 million  during 1999.  This  increase was  primarily due to an
insurance recovery. Other-net decreased by $4.7 million during 1998, as compared
to  the  prior  year.  The  decrease  in  1998  was  primarily  related  to  the
non-recurring gain from the sale of a retired plant site in 1997.

        During 1998, a gain from the liquidation and termination of an agreement
to purchase  power was  recognized by IPL in the amount of $12.5 million  before
taxes.

Interest Charges
- ----------------

       Interest on long-term  debt decreased by $0.3 million and $0.4 million in
1999 and 1998, respectively,  from the prior years. The decrease in 1999 was due
to decreased  interest  expense on floating debt due to lower  average  interest
rates.  The decrease in 1998 was due to the  redemption  of $11.3 million 5 5/8%
Series in May 1997.

       Other  interest  charges  increased by $0.5 million during 1999 primarily
due to increased short-term debt borrowings. Other interest charges decreased by
$0.6 million  during 1998 from the prior year as a result of decreased  interest
on tax assessments and decreased interest on short-term debt borrowings.

Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change
- --------------------------------------

       A cumulative  effect of accounting change in the amount of $18.3 million,
net of taxes, was recorded during 1997.  Effective  January 1, 1997, IPL adopted
the unbilled  revenue method of accounting for  electricity  and steam delivered
during the period.  Revenues are accrued for  services  provided but unbilled at
the end of each month (see Notes 1 and 3 in the Notes to Financial Statements).

New Accounting Pronouncement
- ----------------------------

       The Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued  Statement of Financial
Standards No. 133 (SFAS 133), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities,"  in June 1998. SFAS 137 delayed the effective date of this standard
to all fiscal  quarters of all fiscal years  beginning  after June 15, 2000 (see
Note 1 in the Notes to Financial Statements).

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
                          ============================


To the Board of Directors of Indianapolis Power & Light Company:

We have audited the  accompanying  balance sheets of Indianapolis  Power & Light
Company as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related  statements of income,
retained earnings and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1999. These financial  statements are the  responsibility  of IPL's
management.  Our  responsibility  is to express  an  opinion on these  financial
statements based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards 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.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our  opinion,  such  financial  statements  present  fairly,  in all material
respects,  the financial  position of  Indianapolis  Power & Light Company as of
December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended  December 31, 1999 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

     As discussed  in Note 3 to the  financial  statements,  in 1997 the Company
changed its method of accounting for unbilled revenue.

              For the Years Ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

       All the outstanding  common stock of  Indianapolis  Power & Light Company
(IPL) is owned by IPALCO  Enterprises,  Inc. At December 31, 1999 and 1998,  IPL
had a receivable, which is due on demand, for advances made to IPALCO.

     Nature of Operations:  IPL is engaged principally in providing electric and
steam service to the Indianapolis metropolitan area.

       Concentrations  of Risk:  Substantially all of IPL's business activity is
with customers located within the Indianapolis area. In addition,  approximately
66% of IPL's employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements.

       Regulation:  The  retail  utility  operations  of IPL are  subject to the
jurisdiction  of  the  Indiana  Utility  Regulatory   Commission  (IURC).  IPL's
wholesale  power  transactions  are subject to the  jurisdiction  of the Federal
Energy  Regulatory  Commission.  These agencies  regulate IPL's utility business
operations,  tariffs,  accounting,  depreciation allowances,  services, security
issues  and the  sale and  acquisition  of  utility  properties.  The  financial
statements  of IPL  are  based  on  generally  accepted  accounting  principles,
including the provisions of Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 71,
"Accounting  for the  Effects  of  Certain  Types of  Regulation,"  which  gives
recognition to the ratemaking and accounting practices of these agencies.

       Revenues:  Effective  January 1, 1997,  IPL adopted the unbilled  revenue
method of  accounting  for electric and steam  delivered  during the period (see
Note 3).  Revenues are accrued for services  provided but unbilled at the end of
each month.

       A fuel adjustment  charge  provision,  which is established  after public
hearing,  is  applicable  to most of the rate  schedules  of IPL and permits the
billing or crediting of estimated fuel costs above or below the levels  included
in such rate  schedules.  Actual fuel costs in excess of or under estimated fuel
costs billed are deferred or accrued, respectively.

       On August 18, 1999, the IURC issued an order that allows for the recovery
of purchased power costs based on a benchmark. This benchmark will be determined
by the calculation of a utility's  highest  on-system fuel cost. If the cost per
Mwh of power  purchases is not greater than the  benchmark,  then the  purchased
power costs should be  considered  net energy costs that are presumed fuel costs
included in purchased  power.  If the average cost per Mwh of power purchases is
greater  than the  benchmark,  then  the  costs  are  recoverable  only  through
demonstration of the  reasonableness of those purchases to the IURC. The Indiana
Office of Utility  Consumer  Counselor  has appealed that order and the eventual
outcome of this matter is unknown at this time.

       Authorized  Annual  Operating  Income:   Indiana  law  requires  electric
utilities  under the  jurisdiction  of the IURC to meet  operating  expense  and
income  requirements  as a condition  for approval of requested  changes in fuel
adjustment charges. Additionally,  customer refunds may result if the utilities'
rolling 12-month  operating income,  determined at quarterly  measurement dates,
exceeds the utilities'  authorized  annual operating income and cannot be offset
by  applicable   cumulative  net  operating  income  deficiencies.   In  such  a
circumstance,  the required customer refund for the quarterly measurement period
is calculated to be one-fourth of the excess annual  operating income grossed up
for federal and state taxes as required under I. C.
8-1-2-42.5.

       Effective July 1, 1996, IPL's authorized annual  jurisdictional  electric
net operating income, for purposes of quarterly  operating income tests, is $163
million,  as established in an IURC order dated August 24, 1995. This level will
be maintained until changed by an IURC order.  During 1999, the Commission found
that IPL's rolling annual  jurisdictional  retail electric  operating income was
less  than the  authorized  annual  operating  income  at each of the  quarterly
measurement dates (January, April, July and October). At October 31, 1999, IPL's
most recent  quarterly  measurement  date,  IPL had a cumulative  net  operating
deficiency of $128.8 million,  of which $10.6 million expires at varying amounts
during  the period  ending  September  1,  2000.  The  operating  deficiency  is
calculated  by summing the 20 most recent  quarterly  measurement  period annual
results  or from the date of the last rate  order,  whichever  is  longer.  As a
consequence,  IPL  could,  for a period of time,  earn  above  $163  million  of
electric  jurisdictional  retail net operating  income without being required to
make a customer refund.

       Through  the date of IPL's  next  general  electric  rate  order,  IPL is
required  to file  upward and  downward  adjustments  in fuel cost  credits  and
charges on a quarterly basis, based on changes in the cost of fuel, irrespective
of its level of earnings.

       Pursuant  to an order of the  IURC,  IPL's  authorized  annual  steam net
operating  income is $6.2  million,  plus any  cumulative  annual  underearnings
occurring during the five-year period  subsequent to the  implementation  of the
new rate  tariffs.  During 1999,  IPL's annual  jurisdictional  steam  operating
income was less than the authorized  annual  operating income at the January 31,
1999 measurement date.

       Allowance  For Funds Used During  Construction:  In  accordance  with the
prescribed uniform system of accounts,  IPL capitalizes an allowance for the net
cost of funds (interest on borrowed funds and a reasonable rate on equity funds)
used  for  construction  purposes  during  the  period  of  construction  with a
corresponding  credit to income. IPL capitalized  amounts using pretax composite
rates of 9.4%, 9.7% and 9.1% during 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

       Utility Plant and Depreciation:  Utility plant is stated at original cost
as defined for regulatory  purposes.  The cost of additions to utility plant and
replacements of retirement units of property, as distinct from renewals of minor
items that are charged to maintenance,  are charged to plant accounts.  Units of
property  replaced or abandoned  in the ordinary  course of business are retired
from the plant accounts at cost; such amounts plus removal costs,  less salvage,
are  charged  to  accumulated  depreciation.  Depreciation  is  computed  by the
straight-line method based on functional rates approved by the IURC and averaged
3.5% during 1999, 1998 and 1997.

     Sale of  Accounts  Receivable:  IPL has  sold,  on a  revolving  basis,  an
undivided percentage interest in $50 million of its accounts receivable.

       Regulatory  Assets:  Regulatory assets represent deferred costs that have
been  included as  allowable  costs for  ratemaking  purposes.  IPL has recorded
regulatory assets relating to certain costs as authorized by the IURC.  Specific
regulatory  assets  are  disclosed  in Note  5. As of  December  31,  1999,  all
nontax-related regulatory assets have been included as allowable costs in orders
of the IURC (see Note 10). IPL is amortizing such  regulatory  assets to expense
over periods authorized by these orders. Tax-related regulatory assets represent
the net  income  tax costs to be  considered  in future  regulatory  proceedings
generally as the tax related amounts are paid .

       In accordance  with  regulatory  treatment,  IPL deferred as a regulatory
asset  certain post  in-service  date  carrying  charges and certain other costs
related  to its  investment  in  Petersburg  Unit 4. As  authorized  in the 1995
Electric Rate Settlement,  IPL, effective  September 1, 1995, is amortizing this
deferral to expense over a life that generally  approximates  the useful life of
the related facility.  Also in accordance with regulatory treatment,  IPL defers
as  regulatory  assets  non-sinking  fund debt and  preferred  stock  redemption
premiums and expenses,  and  amortizes  such costs over the life of the original
debt, or, in the case of preferred stock redemption premiums, over 20 years.

       Derivatives:  IPL has only limited involvement with derivative  financial
instruments  and does not use them for trading  purposes.  IPL  entered  into an
interest  rate swap  agreement as a means of managing the interest rate exposure
on one of its debt  facilities.  This  interest rate swap is accounted for under
the accrual method.  Under this method,  the differential to be paid or received
on the interest rate swap agreement is recognized over the life of the agreement
in interest expense.  Changes in market value of the interest swap accounted for
under  the  accrual  method  are not  reflected  in the  accompanying  financial
statements.

       Income Taxes:  Deferred taxes are provided for all significant  temporary
differences  between  book and taxable  income.  The effects of income taxes are
measured based on enacted laws and rates.  Such  differences  include the use of
accelerated depreciation methods for tax purposes, the use of different book and
tax  depreciable  lives,  rates and  in-service  dates and the  accelerated  tax
amortization  of  pollution   control   facilities.   Deferred  tax  assets  and
liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax  consequences of existing
differences  between the financial  reporting and tax reporting  basis of assets
and  liabilities.  IPL has  recorded as  regulatory  assets and net deferred tax
liabilities,  income  taxes  payable  and  includable  in  allowable  costs  for
ratemaking purposes in future years. Investment tax credits that reduced federal
income taxes in the years they arose have been deferred and are being  amortized
to income over the useful lives of the properties in accordance  with regulatory
treatment.

       IPL participates in a tax sharing agreement with the consolidated  IPALCO
group  which  allocates  taxes  as if  each  company  had  filed a  return  on a
stand-alone basis.

       Cash and Cash  Equivalents:  IPL considers all highly liquid  investments
purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.

     Employee Benefit Plans: Substantially all employees of IPL are covered by a
defined benefit pension plan, a defined  contribution  plan and a group benefits
plan.

       The defined benefit pension plan is noncontributory and is funded through
two trusts.  Additionally,  a select  group of  management  employees of IPL are
covered under a funded  supplemental  retirement plan.  Collectively,  these two
plans are  referred  to as the  Plans.  Benefits  are  based on each  individual
employee's  years of  service  and  compensation.  IPL's  funding  policy  is to
contribute  annually not less than the minimum  required by applicable  law, nor
more than the  maximum  amount  that can be  deducted  for  federal  income  tax
purposes.

       The  defined  contribution  plan is  sponsored  by IPL as the  Employees'
Thrift Plan of Indianapolis Power & Light Company (Thrift Plan). Employees elect
to make  contributions  to the Thrift Plan based on a percentage of their annual
base compensation. Each employee's contribution is matched in amounts up to, but
not  exceeding,   4%  of  the  employee's   annual  base   compensation.   IPL's
contributions  to the Thrift Plan, net of amounts  allocated to related  parties
were  $3.5  million,  $3.4  million  and $3.3  million  in 1999,  1998 and 1997,
respectively.

       The  group  benefits  plan  is  sponsored  by IPL  and  provides  certain
health-care  and life insurance  benefits to active  employees and employees who
retire from active  service on or after  attaining  age 55 and have  rendered at
least 10 years of service.  The postretirement  benefit obligations of this plan
are funded through a Voluntary  Employee  Beneficiary  Association (VEBA) Trust.
IPL's policy is to fund the annual actuarially determined postretirement benefit
cost.

       New Accounting Pronouncement: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No.  133  (SFAS  133),   "Accounting  for  Derivative  Instruments  and  Hedging
Activities,"  was issued in June 1998.  SFAS 137 delayed the  effective  date of
this standard to all fiscal quarters of all years beginning after June 15, 2000.
This statement  establishes  accounting  and reporting  standards for derivative
instruments and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all
derivatives  as either  assets or  liabilities  in the  statement  of  financial
condition and measure those instruments at fair value. If certain conditions are
met, a derivative may be  specifically  designated as a fair value hedge, a cash
flow  hedge,  or a hedge of a foreign  currency  exposure.  The  accounting  for
changes in the fair value of a derivative (that is, gains and losses) depends on
the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Management has
not yet quantified the effect of the new standard on the financial statements.

       Use of Management  Estimates:  The preparation of financial statements in
conformity  with  generally  accepted   accounting   principles   requires  that
management  make  certain  estimates  and  assumptions  that affect the reported
amounts  of assets and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of  contingent  assets and
liabilities  at the date of the financial  statements.  The reported  amounts of
revenues and expenses  during the  reporting  period may also be affected by the
estimates and  assumptions  management is required to make.  Actual  results may
differ from those estimates.  During 1999, IPL changed its estimate for unbilled
revenue which resulted in a $8.0 million increase to unbilled revenue.

     Reclassifications:  Certain amounts from prior years' financial  statements
have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

2.  UTILITY PLANT IN SERVICE

     The original cost of utility plant in service at December 31, segregated by
functional classifications, follows:

                                                ==========        ==========

       Substantially  all of  IPL's  property  is  subject  to the  lien  of the
indentures securing IPL's First Mortgage Bonds.

       In 1997, IPL retired and sold its C.C. Perry W plant site, including land
and  improvements,  to the state of Indiana White River State Park Commission at
an approximate  pretax net gain of $5.7 million included under the caption OTHER
INCOME AND (DEDUCTIONS), "Other - net."

3. CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF ACCOUNTING CHANGE

       In December  1997, IPL changed its method of accounting  (retroactive  to
January 1,  1997) to record  revenues  of all  electricity  and steam  delivered
during the period.  Prior to 1997, IPL  recognized  revenues on a cycle basis as
meters were read. The new accounting method more accurately  reports revenues in
the period in which  electricity and steam is used by customers.  The cumulative
effect of the change in  accounting at January 1, 1997 was $18.3 million (net of
income taxes of $11.2  million and other taxes of $.4  million).  The change had
the effect of decreasing 1997 income before  cumulative effect of the accounting
change by $1.9 million (net of taxes).

4.  DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

       The estimated fair value of financial  instruments has been determined by
IPL using available market information and appropriate valuation  methodologies.
However,  considerable  judgment  is  required  in  interpreting  market data to
develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein
are not  necessarily  indicative  of the  amounts  that IPL could  realize  in a
current  market  exchange.  The  use  of  different  market  assumptions  and/or
estimation methodologies may have an effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

       Cash  and  Cash  Equivalents  and  Notes  Payable:  The  carrying  amount
approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

       Long-Term   Debt,   Including   Current   Maturities   and  Sinking  Fund
Requirements: Interest rates that are currently available to IPL for issuance of
debt with  similar  terms and  remaining  maturities  are used to estimate  fair
value.  The  variable  rate debt has been  included  at the face amount for both
carrying  amount  and fair  value.  The fair  value of the  interest  rate  swap
agreement has been estimated at $.4 million and $(5.7) million, which represents
the amount  that IPL would  have to pay or  receive to enter into an  equivalent
agreement  at  December  31,  1999,   and  1998,   respectively,   with  a  swap
counterparty.  The fair value of the debt outstanding has been determined on the
basis of the  specific  securities  issued  and  outstanding.  Accordingly,  the
purpose of this  disclosure is not to approximate  the value on the basis of how
the debt might be  refinanced.  At December  31,  1999,  and 1998,  the carrying
amount of IPL's long-term debt,  including  current  maturities and sinking fund
requirements, and the approximate fair value are as follows:

                                           1999               1998

       Carrying amount                  $627,951          $627,893
       Approximate fair value            615,071           667,035

5.  REGULATORY ASSETS

       The amounts of regulatory assets at December 31 are as follows:

                                                         1999            1998

6.  CAPITAL STOCK

     Common Stock:  There were no changes in IPL common stock during 1999,  1998
and 1997.

       Restrictions on the payment of cash dividends or other  distributions  on
common stock and on the purchase or  redemption  of such shares are contained in
the indentures  securing IPL's First Mortgage  Bonds.  In addition,  pursuant to
IPL's  Articles of  Incorporation,  no  dividends  may be paid or accrued and no
other  distribution  may be made on the common  stock  unless  dividends  on all
outstanding  shares of its  preferred  stock have been paid or declared  and set
apart for payment.  All of the retained earnings at December 31, 1999, were free
of such restrictions.

       Cumulative  Preferred Stock of Subsidiary:  Preferred stock  shareholders
are entitled to two votes per share for IPL matters,  and if four full quarterly
dividends are in default on all shares of the preferred stock then  outstanding,
they are entitled to elect the smallest  number of IPL Directors to constitute a
majority.  Preferred stock is redeemable  solely at the option of IPL and can be
redeemed in whole or in part at any time at specific call prices.

       On January  13,  1998,  IPL issued the 5.65%  Preferred  Series  which is
redeemable at par value, subject to certain  restrictions,  in whole or in part,
at any time on or after January 1, 2008, at the option of IPL.

* Notes are issued to the city of Petersburg, Indiana, by IPL to secure the loan
of proceeds from various tax-exempt instruments issued by the city.

       IPL  redeemed the $23.5  million,  7.45% Series bond in October 1999 with
the proceeds from $23.5 million variable rate note issued September 1999.

       The IPL Series 1991 note  provides for an interest  rate that varies with
the tax-exempt commercial paper rate. The IPL 1994A, 1995B, 1995C and 1996 notes
provide  for an interest  rate which  varies with the  tax-exempt  weekly  rate.
Additionally,  these notes can be converted into  long-term  fixed interest rate
instruments  by the  issuance  of an IPL  First  Mortgage  Bond.  The  notes are
classified  as  long-term  liabilities  because  IPL  maintains  a $150  million
long-term  credit facility  supporting  these  agreements,  which were unused at
December 31, 1999.  The IPL Series 1999 note provides for an interest rate which
varies based on tax-exempt  auction  rates.  IPL, at its option,  can change the
interest rate mode for these notes to be based on other short-term rates.


       The year-end interest rates for the variable rate notes are as follows:

                                           Interest Rate at
                                             December 31
                                       1999           1998
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Series 1991                          3.14%           3.48%
 Series 1994A                         3.38%           3.56%
 Series 1995B                         5.21%           5.21%
 Series 1995C                         3.41%           3.54%

 Series 1999                          3.74%             -

       In  conjunction  with the issuance of the 1995B note, IPL entered into an
interest  rate swap  agreement.  Pursuant  to the swap  agreement,  IPL will pay
interest  at a fixed  rate of 5.21% to a swap  counterparty  and will  receive a
variable  rate of interest in return,  which is identical  to the variable  rate
payment made on the 1995B note. The result is to  effectively  establish a fixed
rate of interest on the 1995B note of 5.21%. The interest rate swap agreement is
accounted for on a settlement  basis. IPL is exposed to credit loss in the event
of  nonperformance  by the counterparty for the net interest  differential  when
floating rates exceed the fixed maximum rate.  However,  IPL does not anticipate
nonperformance by the counterparty.

8.  LINES OF CREDIT

       IPL has  committed  lines of credit  with  banks of $55  million  used to
provide  loans for  interim  financing.  These  lines  require  the  payment  of
commitment fees. At December 31, 1999, $9 million was  outstanding,  $40 million
was used to support  commercial paper and $6 million was unused.  These lines of
credit,  based on  separate  agreements,  have  expiration  dates  ranging  from
February 2000 to April 2000.

     The weighted  average  interest rate on notes payable and commercial  paper
outstanding was 6.12% and 6.13% at December 31, 1999, and 1998, respectively.

10.  RATE MATTERS

       Demand Side Management (DSM) Program:  In compliance with certain orders,
IPL is  deferring  certain  approved  DSM costs  and  carrying  charges.  In the
Settlement Agreement approved by the IURC on August 24, 1995, IPL was authorized
to amortize $5.3 million of such costs deferred  prior to February 1995,  over a
four-year period beginning  September 1, 1995. On July 30, 1997, IPL received an
IURC order  approving a  settlement  agreement  authorizing  IPL to recognize in
rates the existing  regulatory  asset  (consisting  of DSM costs  deferred after
January 31, 1995),  along with carrying charges,  and also to approve changes to
IPL's DSM programs.  On August 18, 1999, IPL received an IURC order  approving a
settlement  agreement  authorizing  IPL to extend its low income  single  family
residential DSM program through July 30, 2000.

       Elect  Plan:  During  1998,  the IURC  approved  a plan that  allows  IPL
customers  with less than 2,000  kilowatts of demand,  an  opportunity to choose
optional  service or payment plans.  This includes a green power option, a fixed
rate per unit of  consumption  option and a fixed  bill  option.  Customers  not
choosing  one of these  options  continue  to  receive  electric  service  under
existing tariffs.

        The defined benefit pension plan had expected  returns on plan assets of
9.0%,  8.0% and 8.0% for 1999, 1998 and 1997  respectively.  The defined benefit
plan assumed  compensation  increases  to be 5.10% during 1998 and 1997.  During
1999,  the defined  benefit plan began using  salary  bands to determine  future
benefit  costs  rather than rate of  compensation  increases.  The  supplemental
retirement pension plan used an expected return on plan assets of 8.0% for 1999,
1998 and 1997. The supplemental plan assumed  compensation  increases to be 6.0%
for 1999, 1998 and 1997.

        Other  benefits used expected rates of return on plan assets of 8.0% for
1999, 1998 and 1997. For measurement purposes, a 6.6% annual rate of increase in
the per capita cost of covered  health care  benefits was assumed for 2000.  The
year in which the ultimate  health care cost trend rate of 4.5% will be achieved
is assumed to be 2003.

      Also, during 1999, 1998 and 1997, IPL expensed  postretirement  regulatory
asset  amortization  of $6.4 million each year. The final period of amortization
is August 2000.

12.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

       In 2000,  IPL  anticipates  the cost of its  construction  program  to be
approximately $107 million.

       IPL is involved in  litigation  arising in the normal course of business.
While the  results  of such  litigation  cannot  be  predicted  with  certainty,
management,  based upon advice of counsel,  believes that the final outcome will
not have a material adverse effect on the financial statements.

       With respect to environmental  issues,  IPL has ongoing  discussions with
various  regulatory  authorities  and  continues  to  believe  that  IPL  is  in
compliance with its various permits.
13.  GAIN ON TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

       During  September  1998,  a pretax gain of $12.5  million  ($7.8  million
after-tax)  resulted from the  liquidation  and  termination  of an agreement to
purchase up to 150 megawatts of power during the summer months  through the year
2000.

14.  SEGMENT INFORMATION

       Operating  segments are  components of an enterprise  for which  separate
financial  information  is  available  and is  evaluated  regularly by the chief
operating  decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing
performance.  IPL's reportable  business  segments are electric and "all other."
Steam operations of IPL are in the "all other" category. The accounting policies
of the  identified  segments are  consistent  with those policies and procedures
described  in the  summary  of  significant  accounting  policies  (see Note 1).
Intersegment sales are generally based on prices that reflect the current market
conditions.  The  following  tables  provide  information  about IPL's  business
segments:

     This bond is one of an issue of bonds of the
Company, issuable in series, and is one of a series known
as its First Mortgage Bonds, 9 5/8% Series, due 2019
(herein sometimes called the "2019 Bonds") limited in

($50,000,000) and established by a Thirty-Second
Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 1, 1989, all
bonds of all series issued and to be issued under and
equally secured (except insofar as any sinking or other
fund, established in accordance with the provisions of
the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may afford additional
security for the bonds of any particular series) by a
Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of May 1, 1940,
executed by the Company to American National Bank and
Trust Company of Chicago, as Trustee (which Mortgage and
Deed of Trust as supplemented and modified by all
supplemental indentures thereto is herein referred to as

a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the
nature and extent of the security, the rights of the
bearers or registered owners of the bonds in respect of
such security, the duties and immunities of the Trustee

     With the consent of the Company and to the extent
permitted by and as provided in the Mortgage, the rights
and obligations of the Company and/or of the holders of
the bonds and/or coupons and/or the terms and provisions
of the Mortgage and/or any instruments supplemental
thereto may be modified or altered by affirmative vote of
the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds per
centum (66 2/3%) in principal amount of the bonds
affected by such modification or alteration then
outstanding under the Mortgage (excluding bonds
disqualified from voting by reason of the Company's
interest therein as provided in the Mortgage); provided
that no such modification or alteration shall permit the
extension of the maturity of the principal of this bond
or the reduction in the rate of interest hereon or any
other modification in the terms of payment of such
principal or interest without the consent of the holder
hereof.  The principal hereof may be declared or may
become due and payable prior to the stated date of the
maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner and at
the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence
of a completed default as in the Mortgage provided.

     The 2019 Bonds are issuable only in fully registered
form without coupons in the denomination of one thousand
dollars and any larger denomination which is a multiple
of one thousand dollars.  In the manner and upon the
payment of the charges hereinafter mentioned, the 2019
Bonds, upon surrender thereof at the office or agency of
the Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, together
with a written instrument of transfer in form approved by
the Company duly executed by the registered holder or by
his duly authorized attorney, are exchangeable for a like
aggregate principal amount of fully registered bonds of
the same series of other authorized denominations.

     This bond is transferable as prescribed in the
Mortgage by the registered owner hereof in person, or by
his duly authorized attorney, at the office or agency of
the Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, upon
surrender and cancellation of this bond and upon
presentation of a written instrument of transfer, duly
executed and upon payment of the charges hereinafter
mentioned, and, thereupon, a new fully registered bond of
the same series for a like principal amount will be
issued to the transferee in exchange herefor as provided
in the Mortgage.  The Company and the Trustee may deem
and treat the person in whose name this bond is
registered as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose
of receiving payment and for all other purposes.

     No charge shall be made upon any transfer or
exchange of any of the 2019 Bonds other than for any tax

eminent domain or otherwise as provided in paragraph B of
Section 69 of the Mortgage, at the principal amount of
the 2019 Bonds so to be redeemed and accrued interest to

     No recourse shall be had for the payment of the
principal of or interest on this bond against any
incorporator or any past, present or future subscriber to
the capital stock, stockholder, officer or director of
the Company or of any predecessor or successor
corporation, as such, either directly or through the
Company or any predecessor or successor corporation, under
any rule of law, statute or constitution or by the
enforcement of any assessment or otherwise, all such
liability of incorporators, subscribers, stockholders,

temporary form, as provided in Section 15 of the Original
Mortgage.  Such bonds may, in lieu of the statement of
the specific redemption prices required to be set forth
in such bonds in definitive form, include a reference to
this Thirty-Second Supplemental Indenture for a statement
of such redemption prices.

amend, modify or delete the provisions of the Mortgage
relating to such Maintenance and Improvement Fund, and by
acceptance of the 2019 Bonds, the holders thereof waive
any right or privilege so to consent or take any other
action with respect thereto.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, and irrespective of its right so to do, the
Company covenants not to apply any cash in the
Maintenance and Improvement Fund toward the redemption of
the 2019 Bonds prior to June 1, 1994.

any of the 2019 Bonds shall remain outstanding, it will
comply with all of the provisions of Section 47 of the
Original Mortgage, including the provisions with respect
to limitations on dividends and distributions and the
purchase and redemption of stock.

     SECTION 7.  In the event the Company elects to
redeem any of the 2019 Bonds prior to June 1, 1994 the
Company shall, prior thereto, furnish to the Trustee a
Treasurer's Certificate stating that such redemption is
not being made, directly or indirectly, from the proceeds
of or in anticipation of any refunding operation
involving the incurring of debt which has an interest
cost to the Company, computed in accordance with
generally accepted financial practice, of less than 9.625
per centum per annum and that said redemption operation
is in full compliance with the terms and conditions of
Section 2 of this Thirty-Second Supplemental Indenture.

     SECTION 8.  The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts
herein declared, provided and created and agrees to
perform the same upon the terms and conditions herein and
in the Mortgage set forth and upon the following terms and
conditions:

     The recitals contained herein and in the bonds shall

Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of
the same.  The Trustee makes no representations as to the
validity or adequacy of the security afforded hereby, or
as to the validity of this Thirty-Second Supplemental
Indenture or of the bonds issued hereunder.

     SECTION 9.  Whenever in this Thirty-Second
Supplemental Indenture either of the parties hereto is
named or referred to, this shall, subject to the
provisions of Article XVII of the Original Mortgage, be
deemed to include the successors or assigns of such
party, and all the covenants and agreements in this
Thirty-Second Supplemental Indenture contained by or on
behalf of the Company, or by or on behalf of the Trustee,
shall, subject as aforesaid, bind and inure to the
benefit of the respective successors and assigns of such

     SECTION 10.  Nothing in this Thirty-Second
Supplemental Indenture, expressed or implied, is intended
or shall be construed to confer upon, or to give to, any
person, co-partnership or corporation, other than the
parties hereto and the holders of the bonds and coupons
outstanding under the Mortgage, any right, remedy, or
claim under or by reason of this Thirty-Second
Supplemental Indenture or any covenant, condition or
stipulation hereof; and all the covenants, conditions,
stipulations, promises and agreements in this Thirty-

($23,500,000) to be issued under and secured by the
Mortgage, to be designated "7.45% Series, due 2019", each
of which shall also bear the descriptive title "First
Mortgage Bonds"; said bonds shall mature on August 1,
2019, and shall be issued only as fully registered bonds
without coupons in the denomination of five thousand
dollars and any larger denomination which is a whole
multiple of five thousand dollars; they shall bear
interest from the beginning of the current interest
period during which each bond is dated, at the rate per
annum designated in the title thereof, payable semi-
annually, on February 1 and August 1 of each year; and
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on each
said bond shall be payable in lawful money of the United

National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago, which is
hereby designated and appointed the office and agency of
the Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, for the
payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on the 2019 PC Bond, if necessary, and for the
registration, transfer and exchange of such bond as
hereinafter provided; all reference herein to the office
or agency of the Company in the City of Chicago,
Illinois, for the payment of the principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on the 2019 PC Bond, or the
registration, transfer or exchange thereof, being to
American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago.  In
the event of the resignation or inability to act of
American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago, then
a successor agent for all such purposes in the City of
Chicago, Illinois, shall be appointed by the Board of
Directors of the Company.

The 2019 PC Bond shall be dated as of the date of
authentication thereof, except as otherwise provided in
Section 10 of the Original Mortgage.

The 2019 PC Bond will be issued to evidence and secure a
loan to the Company by the Commission pursuant to the
Loan Agreement of certain funds to be acquired by the
Commission through the issuance of Indiana Employment
Development Commission, Exempt Facilities Revenue Bonds,
Series 1989 (Indianapolis Power & Light Company Project)
(the "Commission Bonds"), authenticated and delivered
under and pursuant to an Indenture of Trust (the
"Commission Indenture"), dated as of August 1, 1989, by
and between the Commission and Merchants National Bank &
Trust Company of Indianapolis, as Trustee (the
"Commission Trustee").  If the Commission Trustee is
requested by any registered holder of one million dollars
or more in aggregate principal amount of the Commission
Bonds to make interest payments on the Commission Bonds
by wire transfer in federal funds on the date when due,
the interest on the 2019 PC Bond shall be paid on or
before the date when due in sufficient time and form to
permit the Commission Trustee to comply with the payment
requirements for the Commission Bonds.  Pursuant to the
Commission's pledge and assignment of the 2019 PC Bond
and the Loan Agreement, as set forth in the Commission
Indenture, the 2019 PC Bond shall be issued to the
Commission Trustee. Substantially all of the proceeds
of the Commission Bonds will be used for the Project.

Upon the notice and in the manner and with the effect
provided in this Section 2, the 2019 PC Bond shall be
redeemable prior to the maturity thereof under any one or
more of the following circumstances:

(a)  In part, at the option of the Company, if any
     Project component or the facilities serviced by the
     Project component shall have been damaged or destroyed as
     set forth in Section 5.1 of the Loan Agreement (i) to
     such extent that it cannot be reasonably restored within
     a period of six (6) months to the condition thereof
     immediately preceding such damage or destruction, or (ii)
     to such extent that the Company is thereby prevented from
     carrying on its normal operations for a period of six (6)
     months or more, or (iii) to such extent that the
     restoration thereof would not be, taking into
     consideration the Net Proceeds (as defined in the Loan
     Agreement) or any insurance payable as a result of such
     damage or destruction, economic in the reasonable opinion
     of the Company.

(b)  In part, at the option of the Company, if title to,
     or the temporary use of, all or substantially all of the
     Project component or the facilities serviced by the
     Project component shall have been taken, under the
     exercise of the power of eminent domain, or should any
     governmental body or agency exercise any right which it
     may have to purchase or designate a purchaser of the
     same, or should such property be sold to any governmental
     body or agency so that the result of such taking or
     takings is that (i) the Company is thereby prevented from
     carrying on its normal operation of either the Project
     component or such facilities for a period of six (6)
     months or more, (ii) the restoration required as a result
     of the taking cannot be reasonably expected, in the
     opinion of the Company, to be completed in a period of
     six (6) months, or (iii) the restoration thereof, taking
     into consideration the Net Proceeds (as defined in the
     Loan Agreement) from such eminent domain award, would not
     be economic in the reasonable opinion of the Company.

(c)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if, as a
     result of any changes in the Constitution of the State of
     Indiana or the Constitution of the United States of
     America or of legislative or administrative action
     (whether state or federal) or by final decree, judgment
     or order of any court or administrative body (whether
     state or federal) entered after the contest thereof by
     the Company in good faith, the Loan Agreement shall, in
     the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Company, have
     become void or unenforceable or impossible of performance
     in accordance with the intent and purpose of the parties
     as expressed in the Loan Agreement; or unreasonable
     burdens or excessive liabilities shall, in the reasonable
     opinion of the Company, have been imposed upon the
     Commission or the Company, with respect to the Project or
     operation thereof, including without limitation federal,
     state or other ad valorem, property, income or other
     taxes not being imposed on the date of the Loan Agreement
     other than ad valorem taxes presently levied upon
     privately owned property used for the same general
     purpose as the Project.

(d)  In part, at the option of the Company, if changes in
     the economic availability of raw materials, operating
     supplies or facilities necessary for the operation of any
     Project component or the operation of the facilities
     serviced by the Project component shall have occurred or
     technological or other changes shall have occurred which
     render said facilities uneconomic for use.

(e)  In part, at the option of the Company, to the extent
     of Net Proceeds (as defined in the Loan Agreement)
     received from any condemnation award, taking or sale as
     stated therein, if title to, or the temporary use of any
     portion of the Project shall have been taken by the
     exercise of the power of eminent domain, or should any
     governmental body or agency exercise any right it may
     have to purchase or designate a purchaser of the same, or
     should such property be sold to any governmental body or
     agency; provided the Company shall furnish to the
     Commission and the Commission Trustee a certificate of an
     Independent Engineer (as defined in the Loan Agreement)
     selected by the Company stating (i) that the property
     forming a part of the Project that was taken by such
     condemnation, taking or sale is not essential to the
     character or significance of the Project, or (ii) that
     the Project has been restored to a condition
     substantially equivalent to its condition as Pollution
     Control Facilities, Sewage Facilities or Solid Waste
     Disposal Facilities or Local District Heating or Cooling
     Facilities (as defined in the Loan Agreement) prior to
     the taking by such condemnation, taking or sale
     proceedings, or (iii) that improvements have been
     acquired which are suitable for the operation of the
     Project as Pollution Control Facilities, Sewage
     Facilities or Solid Waste Disposal Facilities or Local
     District Heating or Cooling Facilities.

(f)  In whole, at any time on or after August 1, 1999, or
     in part on any interest payment date on or after August
     1, 1999, at the option of the Company, at a price equal
     to the principal amount of the 2019 PC Bond so to be
     redeemed and accrued interest to the date of redemption,
     together with a premium equal to a percentage of the
     principal amount thereof set forth under the heading
     "Redemption Premium" in the form of 2019 PC Bond hereinafter
     recited, so long as the Company is not in default under the
     Loan Agreement or the 2019 PC Bond.

(g)  In the event all or substantially all of the
     mortgaged and pledged property under the Mortgage, or all
     or substantially all such property used in the business
     of generating, manufacturing, transporting, transmitting,
     distributing or supplying electricity, should be taken by
     exercise of the power of eminent domain, or should any
     governmental body or agency exercise any right which it
     may have to purchase or designate a purchaser of the
     same, or should such property be sold to any governmental
     body or agency, the Company shall be obligated to redeem
     the 2019 PC Bond outstanding as promptly as possible in
     accordance with paragraph B of Section 69 of the Original
     Mortgage.

(h)  In the event that the Company is notified by the
     Commission Trustee that (i) an event of default has
     occurred and is continuing under Section 8.01 of the
     Commission Indenture, and (ii) the Commission Trustee has
     declared the principal of all Commission Bonds then
     outstanding immediately due and payable pursuant to
     Section 8.02 of the Commission Indenture, the Company
     shall call for redemption on a redemption date selected
     by it not later than thirty (30) days following the date
     on which such notice is mailed, the 2019 PC Bond
     outstanding, and shall on such redemption date redeem the
     same; provided, however, that such requirement of
     redemption shall be deemed waived, if prior to the date
     fixed for such redemption of the 2019 PC Bond (x) such
     event of default is waived or cured as set forth in
     Section 8.02 of the Commission Indenture, or (y) there
     shall have occurred any completed default (as defined in
     the Mortgage) which affects any bond of any series
     outstanding under the Mortgage and which completed
     default has not been cured and made good prior to such
     redemption date, it being the intent of this proviso
     that, in lieu of such right to redemption, the holder of
     the 2019 PC Bond shall be entitled only to such rights as
     are available to the holders of bonds of any other
     series outstanding under the Mortgage in the event of
     such completed default; and in case of any subsequent
     occurrence or continuance of the events described in (i)
     and (ii) of this Section 2(h), the Company shall have the
     same obligation (subject to the same proviso) to redeem
     the 2019 PC Bond.

(i)  In the event the Commission Trustee notifies the
     Company and the Commission that the interest payable on
     the Commission Bonds held by persons other than a
     "substantial user" or a "related person" as those terms
     are used in Section 147(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue
     Code of 1986, as amended, has been determined by a court
     of competent jurisdiction or a formal ruling of the
     Internal Revenue Service to be no longer excludable from
     gross income for federal income tax purposes by reason of
     a breach by the Company of any covenant, agreement or
     representation in the Loan Agreement, the Company shall
     call the 2019 PC Bond then outstanding to be redeemed on
     the next succeeding interest payment date which is not
     less than ninety (90) days after the date of such notice;
     provided, however, that such requirement of redemption
     shall be deemed waived if, prior to the date fixed for
     redemption of the 2019 PC Bond pursuant to this Section
     2(i), there shall have occurred any completed default (as
     defined in the Mortgage) which affects any bond of any
     series outstanding under the Mortgage and which completed
     default has not been cured and made good prior to such
     redemption date, it being the intent of this proviso
     that, in lieu of such right to redemption, the holder of
     the 2019 PC Bond shall be entitled only to such rights as
     are available to holders of bonds of any other series
     outstanding under the Mortgage in the event of such
     completed default; but when any such completed default
     shall have been cured and made good, if interest on the
     Commission Bonds shall still be taxable as described
     above, the Company shall have the same obligation
     (subject to the same proviso) to redeem the 2019 PC Bond
     on the next succeeding interest payment date which is not
     less than ninety (90) days after the curing and making
     good of such completed default; provided further, that
     the Company may call for redemption such portion of the
     2019 PC Bond, which in the written opinion of an attorney
     or firm of attorneys of nationally recognized standing on
     the subject of municipal bonds, would allow the
     Commission Trustee to redeem the Commission Bonds in
     part, which redemption would have the result that the
     interest payable on the Commission Bonds remaining
     outstanding after such redemption in part would not be
     subject to federal income taxation in the hands of
     persons other than a "substantial user" or a "related
     person" as those terms are used in Section 142(a)(2) of
     the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

In case of redemption of the 2019 PC Bond in whole for
the purpose of prepayment under the Loan Agreement
pursuant to subsection (c), (f), (g), (h) or (i) above,
the amounts payable upon redemption of the 2019 PC Bond
shall be a sum sufficient, together with other funds
deposited with the Commission Trustee and available for
such purpose, to pay the entire principal of, (and
premium, in the case of redemption pursuant to (f)
above), and interest on the 2019 PC Bond then outstanding
and to pay all reasonable and necessary fees and expenses
of the Commission Trustee accrued and to accrue through
final payment of the 2019 PC Bond.

In case of redemption in part pursuant to (a), (b), (d),
(e), (f) or (i) above, the amount payable by the Company
under this Thirty-Third Supplemental Indenture, the Loan
Agreement and the 2019 PC Bond shall be a sum sufficient,
together with other funds deposited with the Trustee and
available for such purpose, to pay the principal of (and
premium in the case of prepayment pursuant to (f) above)
and interest on the 2019 PC Bond so to be redeemed, which
sum together with other funds deposited with the
Commission Trustee and available for such purpose shall
be sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on the Commission Bonds and to pay all
reasonable and necessary fees and expenses of the
Commission Trustee accrued and to accrue through such
partial prepayment.  In case of redemption in part
pursuant to (a), (b), or (d) above, the aggregate
principal amount of the 2019 PC Bond to be redeemed shall
be an amount equal to the amount of the proceeds of the
Commission Bonds expended on the Project component
affected by the event, rounded up to the nearest five
thousand dollar increment.

The 2019 PC Bond and the Commission Bonds shall be
redeemable at any time within one hundred eighty (180)
days following the event or events described as giving
rise to an option of the Company to redeem them in
subsections (a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) above.

To exercise any of the options granted to redeem the 2019
PC Bond in whole or in part or to comply with any
obligations to redeem the 2019 PC Bond in whole or in
part imposed in this Section 2, the Company shall give
written notice of the date of redemption to the
Commission Trustee, which date shall be not less than
thirty (30) days nor more than ninety (90) days from the
date the notice is mailed.  No further notice, by
publication or otherwise, shall be required for
redemption of the 2019 PC Bond, and the requirements of
Section 59 of the Mortgage for notice by newspaper
publication shall not apply to the 2019 PC Bond.

At the option of the holder, the 2019 PC Bond, upon
surrender thereof at the office or agency of the Company
in Chicago, Illinois, together with a written instrument
of transfer in form approved by the Company duly executed
by the holder or by his duly authorized attorney, shall
be exchangeable for a fully registered bond in like
principal amount of the same series and in an authorized
denomination.

The 2019 PC Bond will be nontransferable except to the
Commission Trustee and successors thereto, if any, and to
the Company.  To the extent that it is transferable, it
is transferable by the registered holder thereof, in
person or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on the
books of the Company at the office or agency of the
Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender
thereof for cancellation at said office and upon
presentation of a written instrument of transfer duly
executed.  Thereupon, the Company shall issue in the name
of the transferee, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, a new registered 2019 PC Bond, in an authorized
denomination, of equal principal amount.  Any such
transfer shall be subject to the terms and conditions
specified in the Mortgage and in this Thirty-Third
Supplemental Indenture.

Upon redemption of the 2019 PC Bond in part and surrender
thereof at the office or agency of the Company in
Chicago, Illinois, for exchange, the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver a new registered 2019 PC Bond in
an authorized denomination and principal amount equal to
the reduced principal amount due on that series after
such partial redemption.

The Company shall not be required to transfer or exchange
the 2019 PC Bond for a period of ten (10) days next
preceding any interest payment date of said bond.

Except as set forth herein, no charge shall be made upon
any transfer or exchange of the 2019 PC Bond other than
for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge
required to be paid by the Company.

The 2019 PC Bond shall be limited to an aggregate
principal amount of Twenty-Three Million Five Hundred
Thousand ($23,500,000) and shall be issued under the
provisions of Article VI of the Original Mortgage.

Section 3.  The 2019 PC Bond, and the Trustee's
Certificate to be endorsed thereon, shall be in the
following forms, respectively:

interest therein as provided in the Mortgage); provided
that no such modification or alteration shall permit the
extension of the maturity of the principal of this 2019
PC Bond or the reduction in the rate of interest hereon
or any other modification in the terms of payment of such
principal or interest without the consent of the holder
hereof.  The principal hereof may be declared or may
become due and payable prior to the stated date of

the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence
of a completed default as in the Mortgage provided.

person or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on the

executed.  Thereupon, the Company shall issue in the name
of the transferee, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, a new registered 2019 PC Bond, in an authorized
denomination, of equal principal amount.  Any such
transfer shall be subject to the terms and conditions
specified in the Mortgage and the Thirty-Third
Supplemental Indenture.

Upon redemption of this 2019 PC Bond in part and
surrender thereof at the office or agency of the Company
in Chicago, Illinois, for exchange, the Trsutee shall
authenticate and deliver a new registered 2019 PC Bond in
an authorized denomination and principal amount equal to
the reduced principal amount due on that series after
such partial redemption.

[End of 2019 PC Bond Form]

Section 4. Until the 2019 PC Bond in definitive form is
ready for delivery, the Company may execute, and upon its
request in writing the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a fully registered 2019 PC Bond
in temporary form, as provided in Section 15 of the
Original Mortgage. Such bond may, in lieu of the
statement of the specific redemption prices required to
be set forth in such bond in definitive form, include a
reference to this Thirty-Third Supplemental Indenture for
a statement of such redemption prices.

Section 5. The Company covenants and agrees that it will
duly and punctually pay to the holder of the 2019 PC Bond
the principal thereof, premium, if any, and interest on
said bond at the dates and place and in the manner
mentioned therein; provided; however, that:

(a)  The obligation of the Company to pay the principal
     of, and premium, if any, and interest on the 2019 PC Bond
     shall be discharged to the extent that any moneys in the
     Bond Fund created under and pursuant to the Commission
     Indenture are available for payment of the principal of,
     or premium, if any, or interest on the Commission Bonds
     and are directed by the Company to be applied to the
     payment thereof in the manner provided in the Commission
     Indenture on or prior to the dates on which the Company is
     required to pay the principal of, or premium, if any, or
     interest on the 2019 PC Bond.

(b)  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, the
     principal amount of any Commission Bond acquired by the
     Company and delivered to the Commission Trustee, or
     acquired by the Commission Trustee and cancelled, shall
     be credited against the obligation of the Company to pay
     the principal of the 2019 PC Bond.

As the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
2019 PC Bond is paid or deemed paid in full, and upon its
receipt by the Company, such bond shall be delivered to
the Trustee for cancellation.  The Company shall promptly
inform the Trustee of all payments made and credits
availed of with respect to its obligations on the 2019 PC
Bond.  The Trustee shall not be required to recognize any
payment made or credit availed  of with respect to any
2019 PC Bond unless it has received (a) the bond for
cancellation by it, or (b) a certificate signed by a duly
authorized officer of the Commission Trustee specifying
the amount of such payment or credit and the principal
amount of the 2019 PC Bond with respect to which the
payment or credit was applied.  In the absence of receipt
by the Trustee of any 2019 PC Bond, any such certificate
shall be controlling and conclusive.

Section 6. The covenant of the Company to make annual
payments to the Trustee for a Maintenance and Improvement
Fund as contained in Section 41 of the Original Mortgage
and in the first twenty-four Supplemental Indentures to
the Original Mortgage creating the several series of
First Mortgage Bonds presently outstanding under such
Supplemental Indentures shall not apply to nor be for the
benefit of the 2019 PC Bond, and the Company reserves the
right, without any consent of, or other action by, the
holders of the 2019 PC Bond, to amend, modify or delete
the provisions of the Mortgage relating to such
Maintenance and Improvement Fund and by acceptance of the
2019 PC Bond the holder thereof waive any right or
privilege so to consent or take any other action with
respect thereto.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and
irrespective of its right so to do, the Company covenants
not to apply any cash in the Maintenance and Improvement
fund toward the redemption of the 2019 PC Bond prior to
August 1, 1999.

Section 7. The Company covenants that, so long as the
2019 PC Bond shall remain outstanding, it will comply
with all of the provisions of Section 47 of the Original
Mortgage, including the provisions with respect to
limitations on dividends and distributions and the
purchase and redemption of stock.

Section 8. The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts herein
declared, provided and created and agrees to perform the
same upon the terms and conditions herein and in the
Mortgage set forth and upon the following terms and
conditions:

The recitals contained herein and in the bonds shall be
taken as the statements of the Company and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the
same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the
validity or adequacy of the security afforded hereby, or
as to the validity of this Thirty-Third Supplemental
Indenture or of the PC Bond issued hereunder.

Indenture either of the parties hereto is named or
referred to, this shall, subject to the provisions of
Article XVII of the Original Mortgage, be deemed to
include the successors or assigns of such party, and all
the covenants and agreements in this Thirty-Third
Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the
Company, or by or on behalf of the Trustee, shall,
subject as aforesaid, bind and inure to the benefit of
the respective successors and assigns of such parties,
whether so expressed or not.

Section 10. Nothing in this Thirty-Third Supplemental
Indenture, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be
construed to confer upon, or to give to, any person, co-
partnership or corporation, other than the parties hereto
and the holders of the bonds and coupons outstanding
under the Mortgage, any right, remedy, or claim under or
by reason of this Thirty-Third Supplemental Indenture or
any covenant, condition or stipulation hereof; and all
the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and
agreements in this Thirty-Third Supplemental Indenture
contained by or on behalf of the Company shall be for the
sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and of
the holders of the bonds and of the coupons outstanding
under the Mortgage.

Section 11. The Company covenants that all of the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Mortgage shall be
applicable to the 2019 PC Bond issued hereunder, except
as herein otherwise provided and except insofar as the
same may be inconsistent with the provisions of this
Thirty-Third Supplemental Indenture.

delivered on the date of the acknowledgment hereof by the

First Mortgage Bonds, 8% Series, due 2006 (herein
sometimes called the "2006 Bonds") limited in aggregate
principal amount to Fifty-Eight Million Eight Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($58,800,000) and established by a
Thirty-Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October
15, 1991, all bonds of all series issued and to be issued
under and equally secured (except insofar as any sinking
or other fund, established in accordance with the
provisions of the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may
afford additional security for the bonds of any
particular series) by a Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated
as of May 1, 1940, executed by the Company to American
National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago, as Trustee
(which Mortgage and Deed of Trust as supplemented and
modified by all supplemental indentures thereto is
hereinafter referred to as the "Mortgage"), to which
Mortgage reference is made for a description of the
property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of
the security, the rights of the bearers or registered

With the consent of the Company and to the extent
permitted by and as provided in the Mortgage, the rights

the bonds and/or coupons and/or the terms and provisions
of the Mortgage and/or any instruments supplemental
thereto may be modified or altered by affirmative vote of
the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds per
centum (66-2/3%) in principal amount of the bonds
affected by such modification or alteration then
outstanding under the Mortgage (excluding bonds
disqualified from voting by reason of the Company's
interest therein as provided in the Mortgage); provided
that no such modification or alteration shall permit the
extension of the maturity of the principal of this bond
or the reduction in the rate of interest hereon or any
other modification in the terms of payment of such
principal or interest without the consent of the holder
hereof.  The principal hereof may be declared or may
become due and payable prior to the stated date of
maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner and at
the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence
of a completed default as in the Mortgage provided.

The 2006 Bonds are issued only in fully registered form
without coupons in the denomination of one thousand
dollars and any larger denomination which is a multiple

Company duly executed by the registered holder or by his

authorized attorney, at the office or agency of the

for a like principal amount will be issued to the

Mortgage.  The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat
the person in whose name this bond is registered as the
absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving
payment and for all other purposes.

No charge shall be made upon any transfer or exchange of
any of the 2006 Bonds other than for any tax or taxes or
other governmental charge required to be paid by the
Company.

The Company shall not be required to make transfers or
exchanges of any of the 2006 Bonds for a period of ten
(10) days next preceding any interest payment date of
said bonds.

The 2006 Bonds are not subject to redemption by the
Company prior to the maturity thereof except out of
monies deposited with the Trustee representing the
proceeds of mortgaged and pledged property taken by the
exercise of the power of eminent domain or otherwise as
provided in paragraph B of Section 69 of the Mortgage, in
which event the redemption price of the 2006 Bonds so to
be redeemed shall be the principal amount of such bonds
plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal
of or interest on this bond against any incorporator or
any past, present or future subscriber to the capital
stock, stockholder, officer or director of the Company or
of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such,
either directly or through the Company or any predecessor
or successor corporation, under any rule of law, statute
or constitution or by the enforcement of any assessment
or otherwise, all such liability of incorporators,
subscribers, stockholders, officers and directors, as
such, being waived and released by the terms of the
Mortgage.

ready for delivery, the Company may execute, and upon its
request in writing the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in lieu thereof, fully registered 2006 Bonds in
temporary form, as provided in Section 15 of the Original
Mortgage. Such bonds may, in lieu of the statement of the
specific redemption prices required to be set forth in
such bonds in definitive form, include a reference to
this Thirty-Fourth Supplemental Indenture for a statement
of such redemption prices.

Section 5. The covenant of the Company to make annual
payments to the Trustee for a Maintenance and Improvement
Fund as contained in Section 41 of the Original Mortgage
and in the first twenty-four Supplemental Indentures to
the Original Mortgage creating the several series of
First Mortgage Bonds presently outstanding under such
Supplemental Indentures shall not apply to, or be for the
benefit of the 2006 Bonds, and the Company reserves the
right, without any consent of, or other action by, the
holders of the 2006 Bonds, to amend, modify or delete the
provisions of the Mortgage relating to such Maintenance
and Improvement Fund, and by acceptance of the 2006
Bonds, the holders thereof waive any right or privilege
so to consent or take any other action with respect
thereto.

the 2006 Bonds shall remain outstanding, it will comply
with all of the provisions of Section 47 of the Original
Mortgage, including the provisions with respect to
limitations on dividends and distributions and the
purchase and redemption of stock.

Section 7. The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts herein
declared, provided and created and agrees to perform the
same upon the terms and conditions herein and in the
Mortgage set forth and upon the following terms and
conditions:

The recitals contained herein and in the bonds shall be
taken as the statements of the Company and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the
same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the

as to the validity of this Thirty-Fourth Supplemental
Indenture or of the bonds issued hereunder.

Section 8. Whenever in this Thirty-Fourth Supplemental
Indenture either of the parties hereto is named or
referred to, this shall, subject to the provisions of
Article XVII of the Original Mortgage, be deemed to
include the successors or assigns of such party, and all
the covenants and agreements in this Thirty-Fourth
Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the
Company, or by or on behalf of the Trustee, shall,
subject as aforesaid, bind and inure to the benefit of
the respective successors and assigns of such parties,
whether so expressed or not.

Indenture, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be
construed to confer upon, or to give to, any person, co-
partnership or corporation, other than the parties hereto

under the Mortgage, any right, remedy, or claim under or
by reason of this Thirty-Fourth Supplemental Indenture or
any covenant, condition or stipulation hereof; and all
the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and
agreements in this Thirty-Fourth Supplemental Indenture
contained by or on behalf of the Company shall be for the
sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and of

provisions and conditions of the Mortgage shall be
applicable to the 2006 Bonds issued hereunder, except as
herein otherwise provided and except insofar as the same
may be inconsistent with the provisions of this Thirty-
Fourth Supplemental Indenture.

property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of
the security, the rights of the bearers or registered
owners of the bonds in respect of such security, the
duties and immunities of the Trustee and terms and
conditions upon which the bonds are secured.

With the consent of the Company and to the extent
permitted by and as provided in the Mortgage, the rights
and obligations of the Company and/or of the holders of
the bonds and/or coupons and/or the terms and provisions
of the Mortgage and/or any instruments supplemental
thereto may be modified or altered by affirmative vote of
the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds per
centum (66-2/3%) in principal amount of the bonds
affected by such modification or alteration then
outstanding under the Mortgage (excluding bonds
disqualified from voting by reason of the Company's
interest therein as provided in the Mortgage); provided
that no such modification or alteration shall permit the
extension of the maturity of the principal of this bond
or the reduction in the rate of interest hereon or any
other modification in the terms of payment of such
principal or interest without the consent of the holder
hereof.  The principal hereof may be declared or may
become due and payable prior to the stated date of
maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner and at
the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence
of a completed default as in the Mortgage provided.

The 2007 Bonds are issuable only in fully registered form
without coupons in the denomination of one thousand
dollars and any larger denomination which is a multiple
of one thousand dollars.  In the manner and upon payment
of the charges hereinafter mentioned, the 2007 Bonds,
upon surrender thereof at the office or agency of the
Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, together with a
written instrument of transfer in form approved by the
Company duly executed by the registered holder or by his
duly authorized attorney, are exchangeable for a like
aggregate principal amount of fully registered bonds of
the same series of other authorized denominations.

This bond is transferable as prescribed in the Mortgage
by the registered owner hereof in person, or by his duly
authorized attorney, at the office or agency of the
Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender
and cancellation of this bond and upon presentation of a
written instrument of transfer, duly executed and upon
payment of the charges hereinafter mentioned, and,
thereupon, a new fully registered bond of the same series
for a like principal amount will be issued to the
transferee in exchange hereof as provided in the
Mortgage.  The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat
the person in whose name this bond is registered as the
absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving
payment and for all other purposes.

No charge shall be made upon any transfer or exchange of
any of the 2007 Bonds other than for any tax or taxes or
other governmental charge required to be paid by the
Company.

The Company shall not be require to make transfers or
exchanges of any of the 2007 Bonds for a period of ten
(10) days next preceding any interest payment date of
said bonds.

The 2007 Bonds are not subject to redemption by the
Company prior to the maturity thereof except out of
monies deposited with the Trustee representing the
proceeds of mortgaged and pledged property taken by the
exercise of the power of eminent domain or otherwise as
provided in paragraph B of Section 69 of the Mortgage, in
which event the redemption price of the 2007 Bonds so to
be redeemed shall be the principal amount of such bonds
plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal
of or interest on this bond against any incorporator or
any past, present or future subscriber to the capital
stock, stockholder, officer or director of the Company or
of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such,
either directly or through the Company or any predecessor
or successor corporation, under any rule of law, statute
or constitution or by the enforcement of any assessment
or otherwise, all such liability of incorporators,
subscribers, stockholders, officers and directors, as
such, being waived and released by the terms of the
Mortgage.

Section 4. Until the 2007 Bonds in definitive form are
ready for delivery, the Company may execute, and upon its
request in writing the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in lieu thereof, fully registered 2007 Bonds in
temporary form, as provided in Section 15 of the Original
Mortgage. Such bonds may, in lieu of the statement of the
specific redemption prices required to be set forth in
such bonds in definitive form, include a reference to
this Thirty-Fifth Supplemental Indenture for a statement
of such redemption prices.

Section 5. The covenant of the Company to make annual
payments to the Trustee for a Maintenance and Improvement
Fund as contained in Section 41 of the Original Mortgage
and in the first twenty-four Supplemental Indentures to
the Original Mortgage creating the several series of
First Mortgage Bonds presently outstanding under such
Supplemental Indentures shall not apply to, or be for the
benefit of the 2007 Bonds, and the Company reserves the
right, without any consent of, or other action by, the
holders of the 2007 Bonds, to amend, modify or delete the
provisions of the Mortgage relating to such Maintenance
and Improvement Fund, and by acceptance of the 2007
Bonds, the holders thereof waive any right or privilege
so to consent or take any other action with respect
thereto.

Section 6. The Company covenants that, so long as any of
the 2007 Bonds shall remain outstanding, it will comply
with all of the provisions of Section 47 of the Original
Mortgage, including the provisions with respect to
limitations on dividends and distributions and the
purchase and redemption of stock.

Section 7. The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts herein
declared, provided and created and agrees to perform the
same upon the terms and conditions herein and in the
Mortgage set forth and upon the following terms and
conditions:

The recitals contained herein and in the bonds shall be
taken as the statements of the Company and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the
same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the
validity or adequacy of the security afforded hereby, or
as to the validity of this Thirty-Fifth Supplemental
Indenture or of the bonds issued hereunder.

the covenants and agreements in this Thirty-Fifth
Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the
Company, or by or on behalf of the Trustee, shall,
subject as aforesaid, bind and inure to the benefit of
the respective successors and assigns of such parties,
whether so expressed or not.

Indenture, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be
construed to confer upon, or to give to, any person, co-
partnership or corporation, other than the parties hereto
and the holders of the bonds and coupons outstanding
under the Mortgage, any right, remedy, or claim under or
by reason of this Thirty-Fifth Supplemental Indenture or
any covenant, condition or stipulation hereof; and all
the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and
agreements in this Thirty-Fifth Supplemental Indenture
contained by or on behalf of the Company shall be for the
sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and of
the holders of the bonds and of the coupons outstanding

Section 10. The Company covenants that all of the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Mortgage shall be
applicable to the 2007 Bonds issued hereunder, except as
herein otherwise provided and except insofar as the same
may be inconsistent with the provisions of this Thirty-
Fifth Supplemental Indenture.

through the issuance of City of Petersburg, Indiana,
Pollution Control Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 1993A
(Indianapolis Power & Light Company Project)(the "Series

pursuant to an Indenture of Trust dated as of April 1,
1993 (hereinafter called the "City Indenture"), by and
between the City and National City Bank, Indiana, as
Trustee (the "City Trustee").  Pursuant to the City's
pledge and assignment of the Loan Agreement, as set forth
in the City Indenture, the 2016 PC Bond shall be issued
to the City and assigned to the City Trustee.  All of the
proceeds of the Series 1993A Bonds will be used for the
refunding of the aggregate principal amount of Forty One
Million Eight Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($41,850,000) of the City's Pollution Control Revenue
Bonds, Series 1976 and Series 1978 (Indianapolis Power &
Light Company Project) issued by the City pursuant to
applicable loan agreements.

Upon the notice and in the manner and with the effect
provided in this Section 2, the 2016 PC Bond shall be
redeemable prior to the maturity thereof under any one or
more of the following circumstances:

(a)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if the
Facilities or Unit 3 of the Petersburg Generating Station
serviced by the Facilities shall have been damaged or
destroyed (i) to such extent that they cannot be
reasonably expected, in the opinion of the Company, to be
restored within a period of six (6) months to the
condition thereof immediately preceding such damage or
destruction, or (ii) to such extent that the Company, in
its reasonable opinion, is thereby prevented from
carrying on its normal operations for a period of six (6)
months or more, or (iii) to such extent that the
restoration thereof would not be, taking into
consideration the net proceeds of any insurance payable
as a result of such damage or destruction, economic in
the reasonable opinion of the Company.

(b)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if title to,
or the temporary use of, all or substantially all of the
Facilities or Unit 3 of the Petersburg Generation Station
serviced by the Facilities, shall have been taken, under
the exercise of the power of eminent domain, or should
any governmental body or agency exercise any right which
it may have to purchase or designate a purchaser of the
same, or should such property be sold to any governmental
body or agency so that the result of such taking or
takings is that (i) the Company, in its reasonable
opinion, is thereby prevented from carrying on its normal
operations of either the Facilities or such Unit 3 for a
period of six (6) months or more, (ii) the restoration
required as a result of the taking cannot be reasonably
expected, in the opinion of the Company, to be completed
in a period of six (6) months, or (iii) the restoration
thereof, taking into consideration the net proceeds from
such eminent domain award, would not be economic in the
reasonable opinion of the Company.

(c)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if, as a
result of any changes in the Constitution or law of the
State of Indiana or the Constitution or law of the United
States of America or of legislative or administrative
action (whether state or federal) or by final decree,
judgment or order of any court or administrative body
(whether state or federal) entered after the contest
thereof by the Company in good faith or the decision of
the Company not to contest the same, the Loan Agreement
shall, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the
Company, have become void or unenforceable or impossible
of performance in accordance with the intent and purpose
of the parties as expressed in the Loan Agreement; or
unreasonable burdens or excessive liabilities shall, in
the reasonable opinion of the Company, have been imposed
upon the City or the Company, with respect to the
Facilities or operation thereof, including without
limitation federal, state or other ad valorem, property,
income or other taxes not being imposed on the date of
the Loan Agreement other than ad valorem taxes presently
levied upon privately owned property used for the same
general purpose as the Facilities.

(d)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if changes
in the economic availability of raw materials, operating
supplies or facilities necessary for the operation of the
Facilities or the operation of Unit 3 of the Petersburg
Generating Station serviced by the Facilities shall have
occurred or technological or other changes shall have
occurred which render the Facilities or said Unit 3
uneconomic for use in the reasonable opinion of the
Company.

(e)  In part, at the option of the Company, to the extent
of net proceeds received from any condemnation award,
taking or sale as stated herein, if title to, or the
temporary use of any portion of the Facilities shall have
been taken under the exercise of the power of eminent
domain, or should any governmental body or agency
exercise any right it may have to purchase or designate a
purchaser of the same, or should such property be sold to
any governmental body or agency; provided the Company
shall furnish to the City and the City Trustee a
certificate of an Independent Engineer (as defined in the
Loan Agreement) selected by the Company stating (i) that
the property forming the part of the Facilities that was
taken by such condemnation, taking or sale is not
essential to the character or significance of the
Facilities, or (ii) that the Facilities have been
restored to a condition substantially equivalent to their
condition prior to the taking by such condemnation,
taking or sale proceedings, or (iii) that improvements
have been acquired which are suitable for the operation
of the Facilities.

(f)  In whole, at any time on or after January 1, 2003,
or in part on any interest payment date on or after
January 1, 2003, at the option of the Company at a price
equal to the principal amount of the 2016 PC Bond so to
be redeemed and accrued interest to the date of
redemption, together with a premium equal to a percentage
of the principal amount thereof set forth under the
heading "Redemption Premium" in the form of the 2016 PC
Bond hereinafter recited, so long as the Company is not
in default under the Loan Agreement or the 2016 PC Bond.

(g)  the event all or substantially all of the mortgaged
and pledged property under the Mortgage, or all or
substantially all such property used in the business of
generating, manufacturing, transporting, transmitting,
distributing or supplying electricity, should be taken by
exercise of the power of eminent domain, or should any
governmental body or agency exercise any right which it
may have to purchase or designate a purchaser of the
same, or should such property be sold to any governmental
body or agency, the Company shall be obligated to redeem
the 2016 PC Bond outstanding as promptly as possible in
accordance with paragraph B of Section 69 of the Original
Mortgage.

(h)  In the event that the Company is notified by the
City Trustee that (i) an event of default under the City
Indenture has occurred and is continuing, and (ii) the
City Trustee has declared the principal of all the Series
1993A Bonds then outstanding immediately due and payable
pursuant to the City Indenture, the Company shall call
for redemption, on a redemption date selected by it not
later than thirty (30) days following the date on which
such notice is mailed, the 2016 PC Bond outstanding, and
shall on such redemption date redeem the same; provided,
however, that such requirement of redemption shall be
deemed waived, if prior to the date fixed for such
redemption of the 2016 PC Bond (x) such event of default
is waived or cured as set forth in the City Indenture, or
(y) there shall have occurred any completed default (as
defined in the Mortgage) which affects any bond of any
series outstanding under the Mortgage and which completed
default has not been cured and made good prior to such
redemption date, it being the intent of this proviso
that, in lieu of such right to redemption, the holder of
the 2016 PC Bond shall be entitled only to such rights as
are available to the holders of bonds of any other series
outstanding under the Mortgage in the event of such
completed default; and in case of any subsequent
occurrence or continuance of the events described in (i)
and (ii) of this Section 2(h), the Company shall have the
same obligation (subject to the same proviso) to redeem
the 2016 PC Bond.

(i) In the event the City Trustee notifies the Company
and the City that the interest payable on the Series
1993A Bonds held by persons other than a "substantial
user" or a "related person" as those terms are used in
Section 147(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue code of 1986,
as amended, has been determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction or a formal ruling of the Internal Revenue
Service to be subject to federal income taxation by
reason of a breach by the Company of any covenant,
agreement or representation in the Loan Agreement, the
Company shall call the 2016 PC Bond then outstanding to
be redeemed on the next succeeding interest payment date
within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of
such notice; provided, however, that such requirement of
redemption, whether in whole or in part shall be deemed
waived if, prior to the date fixed for redemption of the
2016 PC Bond pursuant to this Section 2(i), there shall
have occurred any completed default (as defined in the
Mortgage) which affects any bond of any series
outstanding under the Mortgage and which completed
default has not been cured and made good prior to such
redemption date, it being the intent of this proviso
that, in lieu of such right to redemption, the holder of
the 2016 PC Bond shall be entitled only to such rights as
are available to the holders of bonds of any other series
outstanding under the Mortgage in the event of such
completed default; but when any such completed default
shall have been cured and made good, if interest on the
Series 1993A Bonds shall still be taxable as described
above, the Company shall have the same obligation
(subject to the same proviso) to redeem the 2016 PC Bond
on the next succeeding interest payment date within one
hundred eighty (180) days after the curing and making
good of such completed default; provided further, that
the Company may call for redemption such portion of the
2016 PC Bond, which in the written opinion of an attorney
or firm of attorneys of nationally recognized standing on
the subject of municipal bonds, would allow the City
Trustee to redeem the Series 1993A Bonds in part, which
redemption would have the result that the interest
payable on the Series 1993A Bonds remaining outstanding
after such redemption in part would not be subject to
federal income taxation in the hands of persons other
than a "substantial user" or a "related person" as those
terms are used in Section 147(a)(2) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

In case of redemption of 2016 PC Bond in whole for the
purpose of prepayment under the Loan Agreement pursuant
to subsections (a), (b), (c), (d), (f), (g), (h) or (i)
above, the amounts payable upon redemption of 2016 PC
Bond shall be a sum sufficient, together with other funds
deposited with the City Trustee and available for such
purpose, to pay the principal of (and premium, in the
case of redemption pursuant to (f) above), and interest
on the 2016 PC Bond then outstanding and to pay all
reasonable and necessary fees and expenses of the City
Trustee accrued and to accrue through final payment of
the 2016 PC Bond.

In case of redemption in part pursuant to (e), (f) or (i)
above, the amount payable by the Company under this
Thirty-Sixth Supplemental Indenture, the Loan Agreement
and the 2016 PC Bond shall be a sum sufficient, together
with other funds deposited with the Trustee and available
for such purpose, to pay the principal of (and premium in
the case of prepayment pursuant to (f) above) and
interest on the 2016 PC Bond so to be redeemed, which sum
together with other funds deposited with the City Trustee
and available for such purpose shall be sufficient to pay
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Series 1993A Bonds and to pay all reasonable and
necessary fees and expenses of the City Trustee accrued
and to accrue through such partial prepayment.

The 2016 PC Bond and the Series 1993A Bonds shall be
redeemable at any time within one hundred eighty (180)
days following the event or events described as giving
rise to an option of the Company to redeem them in
subsections (a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) above.

To exercise any of the options granted to redeem the 2016
PC Bond in whole or in part or to comply with any
obligations to redeem the 2016 PC Bond in whole or in
part imposed in this Section 2, the Company shall give
written notice of the date of redemption to the City
Trustee, which date shall be not less than thirty (30)
days nor more than ninety (90) days from the date the
notice is mailed.  No further notice, by publication or
otherwise, shall be required for redemption of the 2016
PC Bond, and the requirements of Section 59 of the
Mortgage for notice by newspaper publication shall not
apply to the 2016 PC Bond.

At the option of the holder, the 2016 PC Bond, upon
surrender thereof at the office or agency of the Company
in Chicago, Illinois, together with a written instrument
of transfer in form approved by the Company duly executed
by the holder or by his duly authorized attorney, shall
be exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
fully registered bonds of the same series of other
authorized denominations.

The 2016 PC Bond will be nontransferable except to the
City Trustee and successors thereto, if any, and to the
Company.  To the extent that it is transferable, it is
transferable by the registered holder thereof, in person
or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on the books
of the Company at the office or agency of the Company in
the City of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender thereof for
cancellation at said office and upon presentation of a
written instrument of transfer duly executed.  Thereupon,
the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new
registered 2016 PC Bond or Bonds, in authorized
denominations, of equal aggregate principal amount.  Any
such transfer shall be subject to the terms and
conditions specified in the Mortgage and in this Thirty-
Sixth Supplemental Indenture.

The Company shall not be required to transfer or exchange
the 2016 PC Bond for a period of ten (10) days next
preceding any interest payment date of such bond.

Except as set forth herein, no charge shall be made upon
any transfer or exchange of any of the 2016 PC Bond other
than for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge
required to be paid by the Company.

The 2016 PC Bond shall be limited to an aggregate
principal amount of Forty One Million Eight Hundred Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($41,850,000) and shall be issued under
the provisions of Article VII of the Original Mortgage.

interest therein as provided in the Mortgage); provided
that no such modification or alteration shall permit the
extension of the maturity of the principal of this 2016
PC Bond or the reduction in the rate of interest hereon
or any other modification in the terms of payment of such
principal or interest without the consent of the holder
hereof.  The principal hereof may be declared or may
become due and payable prior to the stated date of
maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner and at
the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence
of a completed default as in the Mortgage provided.

No reference herein to the Mortgage, and no provision of
this 2016 PC Bond or of the Mortgage, shall alter or
impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
and unconditional, to pay, subject to the provisions of
the Thirty-Sixth Supplemental Indenture, the principal
of, and premium, if any, and interest on this 2016 PC
Bond at the place, at the respective times and at the
rate and the manner herein prescribed.

This 2016 PC Bond is issuable only in full registered
form without coupons in denominations of Five Thousand
Dollars and any larger denomination which is a whole
multiple of Five Thousand Dollars.

This 2016 PC Bond will be nontransferable except to the
City Trustee and successors thereto, if any, and to the
Company.  To the extent that it is transferable, it is
transferable by the registered holder thereof, in person
or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on the books
of the Company at the office or agency of the Company in
the City of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender thereof for
cancellation at said office and upon presentation of a
written instrument of transfer duly executed.  Thereupon,
the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new
registered 2016 PC Bond or Bonds, in authorized
denominations, of equal aggregate principal amount.  Any
such transfer shall be subject to the terms and
conditions specified in the Mortgage and in the Thirty-
Sixth Supplemental Indenture.

[End of 2016 PC Bond Form]

Section 4. Until the 2016 PC Bond in definitive form is
ready for delivery, the Company may execute, and upon its
request in writing the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a fully registered 2016 PC Bond
in temporary form, as provided in Section 15 of the
Original Mortgage. Such bond may, in lieu of the
statement of the specific redemption prices required to
be set forth in such bond in definitive form, include a
reference to this Thirty-Sixth Supplemental Indenture for
a statement of such redemption prices.

Section 5. The Company covenants and agrees that it will
duly and punctually pay to the holder of the 2016 PC Bond
the principal thereof, premium, if any, and interest on
said bond at the dates and place and in the manner
mentioned therein; provided, however, that:

     (a)  The obligation of the Company to pay the
principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the
2016 PC Bond shall be discharged to the extent that any
moneys in the Series 1993A Bond Account within the Bond
Fund created under and pursuant to the City Indenture are
available for the payment of the principal of, or
premium, if any, or interest on the Series 1993A Bonds
and are directed by the Company to be applied to the
payment thereof in the manner provided in the City
Indenture on or prior to the dates on which the Company
is required to pay the principal of, or premium, if any,
or interest on the 2016 PC Bond.

     (b)  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5,
the principal amount of any Series 1993A Bond acquired by
the Company and delivered to the City Trustee, or
acquired by the City Trustee and cancelled, shall be
credited against the obligation of the Company to pay the
principal of the 2016 PC Bond.

As the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
2016 PC Bond is paid or deemed paid in full, and upon its
receipt by the Company, such bond shall be delivered to
the Trustee for cancellation.  The Company shall promptly
inform the Trustee of all payments made and credits
availed of with respect to its obligations on the 2016 PC
Bond.  The Trustee shall not be required to recognize any
payment made or credit availed of with respect to any
2016 PC Bond unless it has received (a) the bond for
cancellation by it, or (b) a certificate signed by a duly
authorized officer of the City Trustee specifying the
amount of such payment or credit and the principal amount
of the 2016 PC Bond with respect to which the payment or
credit was applied.  In the absence of receipt by the
Trustee of any 2016 PC Bond, any such certificate shall
be controlling and conclusive.

Section 6. The covenant of the Company to make annual
payments to the Trustee for a Maintenance and Improvement
Fund as contained in Section 41 of the Original Mortgage
and in the first twenty-four Supplemental Indentures to
the Original Mortgage creating the several series of
First Mortgage Bonds presently outstanding under such
Supplemental Indentures shall not apply to nor be for the
benefit of the 2016 PC Bond, and the Company reserves the
right, without any consent of, or other action by, the
holder of the 2016 PC Bond, to amend, modify or delete
the provisions of the Mortgage relating to such
Maintenance and Improvement Fund and by acceptance of the
2016 PC Bond the holder thereof waives any right or
privilege so to consent or take any other action with
respect thereto.

Section 7. The Company covenants that, so long as the
2016 PC Bond shall remain outstanding, it will comply
with all of the provisions of Section 47 of the Original
Mortgage, including the provisions with respect to
limitations on dividends and distributions and the
purchase and redemption of stock.

Section 8. The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts herein
declared, provided and created and agrees to perform the
same upon the terms and conditions herein and in the
Mortgage set forth and upon the following terms and
conditions:

The recitals contained herein and in the bonds shall be
taken as the statements of the Company and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the
same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the
validity or adequacy of the security afforded hereby, or
as to the validity of this Thirty-Sixth Supplemental
Indenture or of the 2016 PC Bond issued hereunder.

Section 9. Whenever in this Thirty-Sixth Supplemental
Indenture either of the parties hereto is named or
referred to, this shall, subject to the provisions of
Article XVII of the Original Mortgage, be deemed to
include the successors or assigns of such party, and all
the covenants and agreements in this Thirty-Sixth
Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the
Company, or by or on behalf of the Trustee, shall,
subject as aforesaid, bind and inure to the benefit of
the respective successors and assigns of such parties,
whether so expressed or not.

Section 10. Nothing in this Thirty-Sixth Supplemental
Indenture expressed or implied, is intended or shall be
construed to confer upon, or to give to, any person, co-
partnership or corporation, other than the parties hereto
and the holders of the bonds and coupons outstanding
under the Mortgage, any right, remedy, or claim under or
by reason of this Thirty-Sixth Supplemental Indenture or
any covenant, condition or stipulation hereof; and all
the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and
agreements in this Thirty-Sixth Supplemental Indenture
contained by or on behalf of the Company shall be for the
sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and of
the holders of the bonds and of the coupons outstanding
under the Mortgage.

Section 11. The Company covenants that all of the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Mortgage shall be
applicable to the 2016 PC Bond issued hereunder, except
as herein otherwise provided and except insofar as the
same may be inconsistent with the provisions of this
Thirty-Sixth Supplemental Indenture.

Section 12. This Thirty-Sixth Supplemental Indenture is

delivered on the date of the acknowledgment hereof by the

through the issuance of City of Petersburg, Indiana,
Pollution Control Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 1993B
(Indianapolis Power & Light Company Project)(the "Series

pursuant to an Indenture of Trust dated as of October 1,
1993 (hereinafter called the "City Indenture"), by and
between the City and National City Bank, Indiana, as
Trustee (the "City Trustee").  Pursuant to the City's
pledge and assignment of the Loan Agreement, as set forth
in the City Indenture, the 2017 PC Bond shall be issued
to the City and assigned to the City Trustee.  All of the
proceeds of the Series 1993B Bonds will be used for the
refunding of the aggregate principal amount of Twenty
Four Million Six Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($24,650,000) of the City's Pollution Control Revenue
Bonds, Series 1977 (Indianapolis Power & Light Company
Project) issued by the City pursuant to applicable loan
agreement.

Upon the notice and in the manner and with the effect
provided in this Section 2, the 2017 PC Bond shall be
redeemable prior to the maturity thereof under any one or
more of the following circumstances:

(a)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if the
Facilities or Unit 3 of the Petersburg Generating Station
serviced by the Facilities shall have been damaged or
destroyed (i) to such extent that they cannot be
reasonably expected, in the opinion of the Company, to be
restored within a period of six (6) months to the
condition thereof immediately preceding such damage or
destruction, or (ii) to such extent that the Company, in
its reasonable opinion, is thereby prevented from
carrying on its normal operations for a period of six (6)
months or more, or (iii) to such extent that the
restoration thereof would not be, taking into
consideration the net proceeds of any insurance payable
as a result of such damage or destruction, economic in
the reasonable opinion of the Company.

(b)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if title to,
or the temporary use of, all or substantially all of the
Facilities or Unit 3 of the Petersburg Generation Station
serviced by the Facilities, shall have been taken, under
the exercise of the power of eminent domain, or should
any governmental body or agency exercise any right which
it may have to purchase or designate a purchaser of the
same, or should such property be sold to any governmental
body or agency so that the result of such taking or
takings is that (i) the Company, in its reasonable
opinion, is thereby prevented from carrying on its normal
operations of either the Facilities or such Unit 3 for a
period of six (6) months or more, (ii) the restoration
required as a result of the taking cannot be reasonably
expected, in the opinion of the Company, to be completed
in a period of six (6) months, or (iii) the restoration
thereof, taking into consideration the net proceeds from
such eminent domain award, would not be economic in the
reasonable opinion of the Company.

(c)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if, as a
result of any changes in the Constitution or law of the
State of Indiana or the Constitution or law of the United
States of America or of legislative or administrative
action (whether state or federal) or by final decree,
judgment or order of any court or administrative body
(whether state or federal) entered after the contest
thereof by the Company in good faith or the decision of
the Company not to contest the same, the Loan Agreement
shall, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the
Company, have become void or unenforceable or impossible
of performance in accordance with the intent and purpose
of the parties as expressed in the Loan Agreement; or
unreasonable burdens or excessive liabilities shall, in
the reasonable opinion of the Company, have been imposed
upon the City or the Company, with respect to the
Facilities or operation thereof, including without
limitation federal, state or other ad valorem, property,
income or other taxes not being imposed on the date of
the Loan Agreement other than ad valorem taxes presently
levied upon privately owned property used for the same
general purpose as the Facilities.

(d)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if changes
in the economic availability of raw materials, operating
supplies or facilities necessary for the operation of the
Facilities or the operation of Unit 3 of the Petersburg
Generating Station serviced by the Facilities shall have
occurred or technological or other changes shall have
occurred which render the Facilities or said Unit 3
uneconomic for use in the reasonable opinion of the
Company.

(e)  In part, at the option of the Company, to the extent
of net proceeds received from any condemnation award,
taking or sale as stated herein, if title to, or the
temporary use of any portion of the Facilities shall have
been taken under the exercise of the power of eminent
domain, or should any governmental body or agency
exercise any right it may have to purchase or designate a
purchaser of the same, or should such property be sold to
any governmental body or agency; provided the Company
shall furnish to the City and the City Trustee a
certificate of an Independent Engineer (as defined in the
Loan Agreement) selected by the Company stating (i) that
the property forming the part of the Facilities that was
taken by such condemnation, taking or sale is not
essential to the character or significance of the
Facilities, or (ii) that the Facilities have been
restored to a condition substantially equivalent to their
condition prior to the taking by such condemnation,
taking or sale proceedings, or (iii) that improvements
have been acquired which are suitable for the operation
of the Facilities.

(f)  In the event all or substantially all of the
mortgaged and pledged property under the Mortgage, or all
or substantially all such property used in the business
of generating, manufacturing, transporting, transmitting,
distributing or supplying electricity, should be taken by
exercise of the power of eminent domain, or should any
governmental body or agency exercise any right which it
may have to purchase or designate a purchaser of the
same, or should such property be sold to any governmental
body or agency, the Company shall be obligated to redeem
the 2017 PC Bond outstanding as promptly as possible in
accordance with paragraph B of Section 69 of the Original
Mortgage.

(g)  In the event that the Company is notified by the
City Trustee that (i) an event of default under the City
Indenture has occurred and is continuing, and (ii) the
City Trustee has declared the principal of all the Series
1993B Bonds then outstanding immediately due and payable
pursuant to the City Indenture, the Company shall call
for redemption, on a redemption date selected by it not
later than thirty (30) days following the date on which
such notice is mailed, the 2017 PC Bond outstanding, and
shall on such redemption date redeem the same; provided,
however, that such requirement of redemption shall be
deemed waived, if prior to the date fixed for such
redemption of the 2017 PC Bond (x) such event of default
is waived or cured as set forth in the City Indenture, or
(y) there shall have occurred any completed default (as
defined in the Mortgage) which affects any bond of any
series outstanding under the Mortgage and which completed
default has not been cured and made good prior to such
redemption date, it being the intent of this proviso
that, in lieu of such right to redemption, the holder of
the 2017 PC Bond shall be entitled only to such rights as
are available to the holders of bonds of any other series
outstanding under the Mortgage in the event of such
completed default; and in case of any subsequent
occurrence or continuance of the events described in (i)
and (ii) of this Section 2(g), the Company shall have the
same obligation (subject to the same proviso) to redeem
the 2017 PC Bond.

(h) In the event the City Trustee notifies the Company
and the City that the interest payable on the Series
1993B Bonds held by persons other than a "substantial
user" or a "related person" as those terms are used in
Section 147(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue code of 1986,
as amended, has been determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction or a formal ruling of the Internal Revenue
Service to be subject to federal income taxation by
reason of a breach by the Company of any covenant,
agreement or representation in the Loan Agreement, the
Company shall call the 2017 PC Bond then outstanding to
be redeemed on the next succeeding interest payment date
within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of
such notice; provided, however, that such requirement of
redemption, whether in whole or in part shall be deemed
waived if, prior to the date fixed for redemption of the
2017 PC Bond pursuant to this Section 2(h), there shall
have occurred any completed default (as defined in the
Mortgage) which affects any bond of any series
outstanding under the Mortgage and which completed
default has not been cured and made good prior to such
redemption date, it being the intent of this proviso
that, in lieu of such right to redemption, the holder of
the 2017 PC Bond shall be entitled only to such rights as
are available to the holders of bonds of any other series
outstanding under the Mortgage in the event of such
completed default; but when any such completed default
shall have been cured and made good, if interest on the
Series 1993B Bonds shall still be taxable as described
above, the Company shall have the same obligation
(subject to the same proviso) to redeem the 2017 PC Bond
on the next succeeding interest payment date within one
hundred eighty (180) days after the curing and making
good of such completed default; provided further, that
the Company may call for redemption such portion of the
2017 PC Bond, which in the written opinion of an attorney
or firm of attorneys of nationally recognized standing on
the subject of municipal bonds, would allow the City
Trustee to redeem the Series 1993B Bonds in part, which
redemption would have the result that the interest
payable on the Series 1993B Bonds remaining outstanding
after such redemption in part would not be subject to
federal income taxation in the hands of persons other
than a "substantial user" or a "related person" as those
terms are used in Section 147(a)(2) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

In case of redemption of 2017 PC Bond in whole for the
purpose of prepayment under the Loan Agreement pursuant
to subsections (a), (b), (c), (d), (f), (g), or (h)
above, the amounts payable upon redemption of 2017 PC
Bond shall be a sum sufficient, together with other funds
deposited with the City Trustee and available for such
purpose, to pay the principal of and interest on the 2017
PC Bond then outstanding and to pay all reasonable and
necessary fees and expenses of the City Trustee accrued
and to accrue through final payment of the 2017 PC Bond.

In case of redemption in part pursuant to (e) or (h)
above, the amount payable by the Company under this
Thirty-Seventh Supplemental Indenture, the Loan Agreement
and the 2017 PC Bond shall be a sum sufficient, together
with other funds deposited with the Trustee and available
for such purpose, to pay the principal of and interest on
the 2017 PC Bond so to be redeemed, which sum together
with other funds deposited with the City Trustee and
available for such purpose shall be sufficient to pay the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Series
1993B Bonds and to pay all reasonable and necessary fees
and expenses of the City Trustee accrued and to accrue
through such partial prepayment.

The 2017 PC Bond and the Series 1993B Bonds shall be
redeemable at any time within one hundred eighty (180)
days following the event or events described as giving
rise to an option of the Company to redeem them in
subsections (a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) above.

To exercise any of the options granted to redeem the 2017
PC Bond in whole or in part or to comply with any
obligations to redeem the 2017 PC Bond in whole or in
part imposed in this Section 2, the Company shall give
written notice of the date of redemption to the City
Trustee, which date shall be not less than thirty (30)
days nor more than ninety (90) days from the date the
notice is mailed.  No further notice, by publication or
otherwise, shall be required for redemption of the 2017
PC Bond, and the requirements of Section 59 of the
Mortgage for notice by newspaper publication shall not
apply to the 2017 PC Bond.

At the option of the holder, the 2017 PC Bond, upon
surrender thereof at the office or agency of the Company
in Chicago, Illinois, together with a written instrument
of transfer in form approved by the Company duly executed
by the holder or by his duly authorized attorney, shall
be exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
fully registered bonds of the same series of other
authorized denominations.

The 2017 PC Bond will be nontransferable except to the
City Trustee and successors thereto, if any, and to the
Company.  To the extent that it is transferable, it is
transferable by the registered holder thereof, in person
or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on the books
of the Company at the office or agency of the Company in
the City of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender thereof for
cancellation at said office and upon presentation of a
written instrument of transfer duly executed.  Thereupon,
the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new
registered 2017 PC Bond or Bonds, in authorized
denominations, of equal aggregate principal amount.  Any
such transfer shall be subject to the terms and
conditions specified in the Mortgage and in this Thirty-
Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

The Company shall not be required to transfer or exchange
the 2017 PC Bond for a period of ten (10) days next
preceding any interest payment date of such bond.

Except as set forth herein, no charge shall be made upon
any transfer or exchange of any of the 2017 PC Bond other
than for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge
required to be paid by the Company.

The 2017 PC Bond shall be limited to an aggregate
principal amount of Twenty Four Million Six Hundred Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($24,650,000) and shall be issued under
the provisions of Article VII of the Original Mortgage.

     INDIANAPOLIS POWER & LIGHT COMPANY
     First Mortgage Bond, 5.40% Series, due 2017
     Due August 1, 2017

This 2017 PC Bond is one of an issue of bonds of the
Company, issuable in series, and is one of a series known
as its First Mortgage Bonds, 5.40% Series, due 2017
(herein called the "2017 PC Bond") limited in aggregate
principal amount to Twenty Four Million Six Hundred Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($24,650,000) and established by a
Thirty-Seventh Supplemental Indenture dated as of October
1, 1993, all bonds of all series issued and to be issued
under and equally secured (except insofar as any sinking
or other fund, established in accordance with the
provisions of the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may
afford additional security for the bonds of any
particular series) by a Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated
as of May 1, 1940, executed by the Company to American
National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago, as the
Trustee (which Mortgage and Deed of Trust as supplemented
and modified by all supplemental indentures thereto is
hereinafter referred to as the "Mortgage"), to which
Mortgage reference is made for a description of the
property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of
the security, the rights of the bearers or registered
owners of the bonds in respect of such security, the
duties and immunities of the Trustee and terms and
conditions upon which the bonds are secured.

This 2017 PC Bond evidences and secures a loan made by
the City to the Company, pursuant to a Loan Agreement,
dated as of October 1, 1993, between the City and the
Company (the "Loan Agreement").  In order to obtain funds
for such loan, the City, contemporaneously with the issue
of this 2017 PC Bond, will issue Twenty Four Million Six
Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($24,650,000) principal
amount of its Pollution Control Refunding Revenue Bonds,
Series 1993B (Indianapolis Power & Light Company Project)
(the "City Bonds") under and pursuant to the City
Indenture.  The City Bonds are payable from payments made
by the Company of principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on this 2017 PC Bond and from moneys in the Bond
Fund created under the City Indenture.  The obligation of
the Company to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on this 2017 PC Bond shall be discharged to the
extent that any moneys in said Bond Fund are available
for payments on the City Bonds and are directed by the
Company to be applied thereto, all as provided in the
Thirty-Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

This 2017 PC Bond is not subject to redemption except as
provided in Section 2 of the Thirty-Seventh Supplemental
Indenture, to which reference is made for full
description of redemption provisions.

With the consent of the Company and to the extent
permitted by and as provided in the Mortgage, the rights
and obligations of the Company and/or of the holders of
the bonds and/or coupons and/or the terms and provisions
of the Mortgage and/or any instruments supplemental
thereto may be modified or altered by affirmative vote of
the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds per
centum (66-2/3%) in principal amount of the bonds
affected by such modification or alteration then
outstanding under the Mortgage (excluding bonds
disqualified from voting by reason of the Company's
interest therein as provided in the Mortgage); provided
that no such modification or alteration shall permit the
extension of the maturity of the principal of this 2017
PC Bond or the reduction in the rate of interest hereon
or any other modification in the terms of payment of such
principal or interest without the consent of the holder
hereof.  The principal hereof may be declared or may
become due and payable prior to the stated date of
maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner and at
the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence
of a completed default as in the Mortgage provided.

No reference herein to the Mortgage, and no provision of
this 2017 PC Bond or of the Mortgage, shall alter or
impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
and unconditional, to pay, subject to the provisions of
the Thirty-Seventh Supplemental Indenture, the principal
of, and premium, if any, and interest on this 2017 PC
Bond at the place, at the respective times and at the
rate and the manner herein prescribed.

This 2017 PC Bond is issuable only in full registered
form without coupons in denominations of Five Thousand
Dollars and any larger denomination which is a whole
multiple of Five Thousand Dollars.

This 2017 PC Bond will be nontransferable except to the
City Trustee and successors thereto, if any, and to the
Company.  To the extent that it is transferable, it is
transferable by the registered holder thereof, in person
or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on the books
of the Company at the office or agency of the Company in
the City of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender thereof for
cancellation at said office and upon presentation of a
written instrument of transfer duly executed.  Thereupon,
the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new
registered 2017 PC Bond or Bonds, in authorized
denominations, of equal aggregate principal amount.  Any
such transfer shall be subject to the terms and
conditions specified in the Mortgage and in the Thirty-
Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

[End of 2017 PC Bond Form]

Section 4. Until the 2017 PC Bond in definitive form is
ready for delivery, the Company may execute, and upon its
request in writing the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in lieu thereof, fully registered 2017 PC Bond
in temporary form, as provided in Section 15 of the
Original Mortgage. Such bond may, in lieu of the
statement of the specific redemption prices required to
be set forth in such bond in definitive form, include a
reference to this Thirty-Seventh Supplemental Indenture
for a statement of such redemption prices.

Section 5. The Company covenants and agrees that it will
duly and punctually pay to the holder of the 2017 PC Bond
the principal thereof, premium, if any, and interest on
said bond at the dates and place and in the manner
mentioned therein; provided, however, that:

     (a)  The obligation of the Company to pay the
principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the
2017 PC Bond shall be discharged to the extent that any
moneys in the Series 1993B Bond Account within the Bond
Fund created under and pursuant to the City Indenture are
available for the payment of the principal of, or
premium, if any, or interest on the Series 1993B Bonds
and are directed by the Company to be applied to the
payment thereof in the manner provided in the City
Indenture on or prior to the dates on which the Company
is required to pay the principal of, or premium, if any,
or interest on the 2017 PC Bond.

     (b)  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5,
the principal amount of any Series 1993B Bond acquired by
the Company and delivered to the City Trustee, or
acquired by the City Trustee and cancelled, shall be
credited against the obligation of the Company to pay the
principal of the 2017 PC Bond.

As the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
2017 PC Bond is paid or deemed paid in full, and upon its
receipt by the Company, such bond shall be delivered to
the Trustee for cancellation.  The Company shall promptly
inform the Trustee of all payments made and credits
availed of with respect to its obligations on the 2017 PC
Bond.  The Trustee shall not be required to recognize any
payment made or credit availed of with respect to any
2017 PC Bond unless it has received (a) the bond for
cancellation by it, or (b) a certificate signed by a duly
authorized officer of the City Trustee specifying the
amount of such payment or credit and the principal amount
of the 2017 PC Bond with respect to which the payment or
credit was applied.  In the absence of receipt by the
Trustee of any 2017 PC Bond, any such certificate shall
be controlling and conclusive.

Section 6. The covenant of the Company to make annual
payments to the Trustee for a Maintenance and Improvement
Fund as contained in Section 41 of the Original Mortgage
and in the first twenty-four Supplemental Indentures to
the Original Mortgage creating the several series of
First Mortgage Bonds presently outstanding under such
Supplemental Indentures shall not apply to nor be for the
benefit of the 2017 PC Bond, and the Company reserves the
right, without any consent of, or other action by, the
holder of the 2017 PC Bond, to amend, modify or delete
the provisions of the Mortgage relating to such
Maintenance and Improvement Fund and by acceptance of the
2017 PC Bond the holder thereof waives any right or
privilege so to consent or take any other action with
respect thereto.

Section 7. The Company covenants that, so long as the
2017 PC Bond shall remain outstanding, it will comply
with all of the provisions of Section 47 of the Original
Mortgage, including the provisions with respect to
limitations on dividends and distributions and the
purchase and redemption of stock.

Section 8. The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts herein
declared, provided and created and agrees to perform the
same upon the terms and conditions herein and in the
Mortgage set forth and upon the following terms and
conditions:

The recitals contained herein and in the bonds shall be
taken as the statements of the Company and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the
same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the
validity or adequacy of the security afforded hereby, or
as to the validity of this Thirty-Seventh Supplemental
Indenture or of the 2017 PC Bond issued hereunder.

Section 9. Whenever in this Thirty-Seventh Supplemental
Indenture either of the parties hereto is named or
referred to, this shall, subject to the provisions of
Article XVII of the Original Mortgage, be deemed to
include the successors or assigns of such party, and all
the covenants and agreements in this Thirty-Seventh
Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the
Company, or by or on behalf of the Trustee, shall,
subject as aforesaid, bind and inure to the benefit of
the respective successors and assigns of such parties,
whether so expressed or not.


Section 10. Nothing in this Thirty-Seventh Supplemental
Indenture expressed or implied, is intended or shall be
construed to confer upon, or to give to, any person, co-
partnership or corporation, other than the parties hereto
and the holders of the bonds and coupons outstanding
under the Mortgage, any right, remedy, or claim under or
by reason of this Thirty-Seventh Supplemental Indenture
or any covenant, condition or stipulation hereof; and all
the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and
agreements in this Thirty-Seventh Supplemental Indenture
contained by or on behalf of the Company shall be for the
sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and of
the holders of the bonds and of the coupons outstanding

Section 11. The Company covenants that all of the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Mortgage shall be
applicable to the 2017 PC Bond issued hereunder, except
as herein otherwise provided and except insofar as the
same may be inconsistent with the provisions of this
Thirty-Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

pursuant to an Indenture of Trust dated as of October 1,

between the City and Bank One, Indianapolis, NA, as
Trustee (the "City Trustee").  Pursuant to the City's
pledge and assignment of the Loan Agreement, as set forth
in the City Indenture, the 2023 PC Bond shall be issued
to the City and assigned to the City Trustee.  All of the
proceeds of the Series 1993C Bonds will be used for the

Million Dollars ($30,000,000) of the City's Pollution
Control Revenue Bonds, Series 1983 (Indianapolis Power &
Light Company Project) issued by the City pursuant to
applicable loan agreements.

Upon the notice and in the manner and with the effect
provided in this Section 2, the 2023 PC Bond shall be
redeemable prior to the maturity thereof under any one or
more of the following circumstances:

(a)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if the
Facilities or Unit 4 of the Petersburg Generating Station
serviced by the Facilities shall have been damaged or
destroyed (i) to such extent that they cannot be
reasonably expected, in the opinion of the Company, to be
restored within a period of six (6) months to the
condition thereof immediately preceding such damage or
destruction, or (ii) to such extent that the Company, in
its reasonable opinion, is thereby prevented from
carrying on its normal operations for a period of six (6)
months or more, or (iii) to such extent that the
restoration thereof would not be, taking into
consideration the net proceeds of any insurance payable
as a result of such damage or destruction, economic in
the reasonable opinion of the Company.

(b)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if title to,
or the temporary use of, all or substantially all of the
Facilities or Unit 4 of the Petersburg Generation Station
serviced by the Facilities, shall have been taken, under
the exercise of the power of eminent domain, or should
any governmental body or agency exercise any right which
it may have to purchase or designate a purchaser of the
same, or should such property be sold to any governmental
body or agency so that the result of such taking or
takings is that (i) the Company, in its reasonable
opinion, is thereby prevented from carrying on its normal
operations of either the Facilities or such Unit 4 for a
period of six (6) months or more, (ii) the restoration
required as a result of the taking cannot be reasonably
expected, in the opinion of the Company, to be completed
in a period of six (6) months, or (iii) the restoration
thereof, taking into consideration the net proceeds from
such eminent domain award, would not be economic in the
reasonable opinion of the Company.

(c)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if, as a
result of any changes in the Constitution or law of the
State of Indiana or the Constitution or law of the United
States of America or of legislative or administrative
action (whether state or federal) or by final decree,
judgment or order of any court or administrative body
(whether state or federal) entered after the contest
thereof by the Company in good faith or the decision of
the Company not to contest the same, the Loan Agreement
shall, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the
Company, have become void or unenforceable or impossible
of performance in accordance with the intent and purpose
of the parties as expressed in the Loan Agreement; or
unreasonable burdens or excessive liabilities shall, in
the reasonable opinion of the Company, have been imposed
upon the City or the company, with respect to the
Facilities or operation thereof, including without
limitation federal, state or other ad valorem, property,
income or other taxes not being imposed on the date of
the Loan Agreement other than ad valorem taxes presently
levied upon privately owned property used for the same
general purpose as the Facilities.

(d)  In whole, at the option of the Company, if changes
in the economic availability of raw materials, operating
supplies or facilities necessary for the operation of the
Facilities or the operation of Unit 4 of the Petersburg
Generating Station serviced by the Facilities shall have
occurred or technological or other changes shall have
occurred which render the Facilities or said Unit 4
uneconomic for use in the reasonable opinion of the
company.

(e)  In part, at the option of the Company, to the extent
of net proceeds received from any condemnation award,
taking or sale as stated herein, if title to, or the
temporary use of any portion of the Facilities shall have
been taken under the exercise of the power of eminent
domain, or should any governmental body or agency
exercise any right it may have to pruchase or designate a
purchaser of the same, or should such property be sold to
any governmental body or agency; provided the Company
shall furnish to the City and the City Trustee a
certificate of an Independent Engineer (as defined in the
Loan Agreement) selected by the Company stating (i) that
the property forming the part of the Facilities that was
taken by such condemnation, taking or sale is not
essential to the character or significance of the
Facilities, or (ii) that the Facilities have been
restored to a condition substantially equivalent to their
condition prior to the taking by such condemnation,
taking or sale proceedings, or (iii) that improvements
have been acquired which are suitable for the operation
of the Facilities.

(f)  In whole, at any time on or after October 1, 2003,
or in part on any interest payment date on or after
October 1, 2003, at the option of the Company at a price
equal to the principal amount of the 2023 PC Bond so to
be redeemed and accrued interest to the date of
redemption, together with a premium equal to a percentage
of the principal amount thereof set forth under the
heading "Redemption Premium" in the form of the 2023 PC
Bond hereinafter recited, so long as the Company is not
in default under the Loan Agreement or the 2023 PC Bond.

(g)  In the event all or substantially all of the
mortgaged and pledged property under the Mortgage, or all
or substantially all such property used in the business
of generating, manufacturing, transporting, transmitting,
distributing or supplying electricity, should be taken by
exercise of the power of eminent domain, or should any
governmental body or agency exercise any right which it
may have to purchase or designate a purchaser of the
same, or should such property be sold to any governmental
body or agency, the Company shall be obligated to redeem
the 2023 PC Bond outstanding as promptly as possible in
accordance with paragraph B of Section 69 of the Original
Mortgage.

(h)  In the event that the Company is notified by the
City Trustee that (i) an event of default under the City
Indenture has occurred and is continuing, and (ii) the
City Trustee has declared the principal of all the Series
1993C Bonds then outstanding immediately due and payable
pursuant to the City Indenture, the Company shall call
for redemption, on a redemption date selected by it not
later than thirty (30) days following the date on which
such notice is mailed, the 2023 PC Bond outstanding, and
shall on such redemption date redeem the same; provided,
however, that such requirement of redemption shall be
deemed waived, if prior to the date fixed for such
redemption of the 2023 PC Bond (x) such event of default
is waived or cured as set forth in the City Indenture, or
(y) there shall have occurred any completed default (as
defined in the Mortgage) which affects any bond of any
series outstanding under the Mortgage and which completed
default has not been cured and made good prior to such
redemption date, it being the intent of this proviso
that, in lieu of such right to redemption, the holder of
the 2023 PC Bond shall be entitled only to such rights as
are available to the holders of bonds of any other series
outstanding under the Mortgage in the event of such
completed default; and in case of any subsequent
occurrence or continuance of the events described in (i)
and (ii) of this Section 2(h), the Company shall have the
same obligation (subject to the same proviso) to redeem
the 2023 PC Bond.

(i) In the event the City Trustee notifies the Company
and the City that the interest payable on the Series
1993C Bonds held by persons other than a "substantial
user" or a "related person" as those terms are used in
Section 147(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue code of 1986,
as amended, has been determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction or a formal ruling of the Internal Revenue
Service to be subject to federal income taxation by
reason of a breach by the Company of any covenant,
agreement or representation in the Loan Agreement, the
Company shall call the 2023 PC Bond then outstanding to
be redeemed on the next succeeding interest payment date
within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of
such notice; provided, however, that such requirement of
redemption, whether in whole or in part shall be deemed
waived if, prior to the date fixed for redemption of the
2023 PC Bond pursuant to this Section 2(i), there shall
have occurred any completed default (as defined in the
Mortgage) which affects any bond of any series
outstanding under the Mortgage and which completed
default has not been cured and made good prior to such
redemption date, it being the intent of this proviso
that, in lieu of such right to redemption, the holder of
the 2023 PC Bond shall be entitled only to such rights as
are available to the holders of bonds of any other series
outstanding under the Mortgage in the event of such
completed default; but when any such completed default
shall have been cured and made good, if interest on the
Series 1993C Bonds shall still be taxable as described
above, the Company shall have the same obligation
(subject to the same proviso) to redeem the 2023 PC Bond
on the next succeeding interest payment date within one
hundred eighty (180) days after the curing and making
good of such completed default; provided further, that
the Company may call for redemption such portion of the
2023 PC Bond, which in the written opinion of an attorney
or firm of attorneys of nationally recognized standing on
the subject of municipal bonds, would allow the City
Trustee to redeem the Series 1993C Bonds in part, which
redemption would have the result that the interest
payable on the Series 1993C Bonds remaining outstanding
after such redemption in part would not be subject to
federal income taxation in the hands of persons other
than a "substantial user" or a "related person" as those
terms are used in Section 147(a)(2) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

In case of redemption of 2023 PC Bond in whole for the
purpose of repayment under the Loan Agreement pursuant to
subsection (a), (b), (c), (d), (f), (g), (h) or (i)
above, the amounts payable upon redemption of 2023 PC
Bond shall be a sum sufficient, together with other funds
deposited with the City Trustee and available for such
purpose, to pay the principal of (and premium, in the
case of redemption pursuant to (f) above, and interest on
the 2023 PC Bond then outstanding and to pay all
reasonable and necessary fees and expenses of the City
Trustee accrued and to accrue through final payment of
the 203 PC Bond.

In case of redemption in part pursuant to (e), (f) or (i)
above, the amount payable by the Company under this
Thirty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture, the Loan Agreement
and the 2023 PC Bond shall be a sum sufficient, together
with other funds deposited with the Trustee and available
for such purpose, to pay the principal of (and premium in
the case of prepayment pursuant to (f) above) and
interest on the 2023 PC Bond so to be redeemed, which sum
together with other funds deposited with the City Trustee
and available for such purpose shall be sufficient to pay
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Series 1993C Bonds and to pay all reasonable and
necessary fees and expenses of the City Trustee accrued
and to accrue through such partial prepayment.

The 2023 PC Bond and the Series 1993C Bonds shall be
redeemable at any time within one hundred eighty (180)
days following the event or events described as giving
rise to an option of the Company to redeem them in
subsections (a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) above.

To exercise any of the options granted to redeem the 2023
PC Bond in whole or in part or to comply with any
obligations to redeem the 2023 PC Bond in whole or in
part imposed in this Section 2, the Company shall give
written notice of the date of redemption to the City
Trustee, which date shall be not less than thirty (30)
days nor more than ninety (90) days from the date the
notice is mailed.  NO further notice, by publication or
otherwise, shall be required for redemption of the 2023
PC Bond, and the requirements of Section 59 of the
Mortgage for notice by newspaper publication shall not
apply to the 2023 PC Bond.

At the option of the holder, the 2023 PC Bond, upon
surrender thereof at the office or agency of the company
in Chicago, Illinois, together with a written instrument
of transfer in form approved by the Company duly executed
by the holder or by his duly authorized attorney, shall
be exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
fully registered bonds of the same series of other
authorized denominations.

The 2023 PC Bond will be nontransferable except to the
City Trustee and successors thereto, if any, and to the
Company.  To the extent that it is transferable, it is
tranferable by the registered holder thereof, in person
or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on the books
of the Company at the office or agency of the Company in
the City of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender thereof for
cancellation at said office and upon presentation of a
written instrument of transfer duly executed.  Thereupon,
the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new
registered 2023 PC Bond or Bonds, in authorized
denominations, of equal aggregate principal amount.  Any
such transfer shall be subject to the terms and
conditions specified in the Mortgage and in this Thirty-
Eighth Supplemental Indenture.

The Company shall not be required to transfer or exchange
the 2023 PC Bond for a period of ten (10) days next
preceding any interest payment date of said bond.

Except as set forth herein, no charge shall be made upon
any transfer or exchange of any of the 2023 PC Bond other
than for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge
required to be paid by the Company.

The 2023 PC Bond shall be limited to an aggregate
principal amount of Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000)

Original Mortgage. Such bond may, in lieu of the
statement of the specific redemption prices required to
be set forth in such bond in definitive form, include a
reference to this Thirty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture
for a statement of such redemption prices.

Section 5. The Company covenants and agrees that it will
duly and punctually pay to the holder of the 2023 PC Bond
the principal thereof, premium, if any, and interest on
said bond at the dates and place and in the manner
mentioned therein; provided, however, that:

     (a)  The obligation of the Company to pay the
principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the
2023 PC Bond shall be discharged to the extent that any
moneys in the Series 1993C Bond Account within the Bond
Fund created under and pursuant to the City Indenture are
available for the payment of the principal of, or
premium, if any, of interest on the Series 1993C Bonds
and are directed by the Company to be applied to the
payment thereof in the manner provided in the City
Indenture on or prior to the dates on which the Company
is required to pay the principal of, or premium, if any,
or interest on the 2023 PC Bond.

     (b)  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5,
the principal amount of any Series 1993C Bond acquired by
the Company and delivered to the City Trustee, or
acquired by the City Trustee and cancelled, shall be
credited against the obligation of the Company to pay the
principal of the 2023 PC Bond.

As the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
2023 PC Bond is paid or deemed paid in full, and upon its
receipt by the Company, such bond shall be delivered to
the Trustee for cancellation.  The Company shall promptly
inform the Trustee of all payments made and credits
availed of with respect to its obligations on the 2023 PC
Bond.  The Trustee shall not be required to recognize any
payment made or credit availed of with respect to any
2023 PC Bond unless it has received (a) the bond for
cancellation by it, or (b) a certificate signed by a duly
authorized officer of the City Trustee specifying the
amount of such payment or credit and the principal amount
of the 2023 PC Bond with respect to which the payment or
credit was applied.  In the absence of receipt by the
Trustee of any 2023 PC Bond, any such certificate shall
be controlling and conclusive.

Section 6. The covenant of the Company to make annual
payments to the Trustee for a Maintenance and Improvement
Fund as contained in Section 41 of the Original Mortgage
and in the first twenty-four Supplemental Indentures in
the Original Mortgage creating the several series of
First Mortgage Bonds presently outstanding under such
Supplemental Indentures shall not apply to nor be for the
benefit of the 2023 PC Bond, and the Company reserves the
right, without any consent of, or other action by, the
holder of the 2023 PC Bond, to amend, modify or delete
the provisions of the Mortgage relating to such
Maintenance and Improvement Fund and by acceptance of the
2023 PC Bond the holder thereof waives any right or
privilege so to consent or take any other action with
repsect thereto.

Section 7. The Company covenants that, so long as the
2023 PC Bond shall remain outstanding, it will comply
with all of the provisions of Section 47 of the Original
Mortgage, including the provisions with respect to
limitations on dividends and distributions and the
purchase and redemption of stock.

Section 8. The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts herein
declared, provided and created and agrees to perform the
same upon the terms and conditions herein and in the
Mortgage set forth and upon the following terms and
conditions:

The recitals contained herein and in the bonds shall be
taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the
same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the
validity or adequacy of the security afforded hereby, or
as to the validity of this Thirty-Eighth Supplemental
Indenture or of the 2023 PC Bond issued hereunder.

Section 9. Whenever in this Thirty-Eighth Supplemental
Indenture either of the parties hereto is named or
referred to, this shall, subject to the provisions of
Article XVII of the Original Mortgage, be deemed to
include the successors or assigns of such party, and all
the covenants and agreements in this Thirty-Eighth
Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the
Company, or by or on behalf of the Trustee, shall,
subject as aforesaid, bind and inure to the benefit of
the respective successors and assigns of such parties,
whether so expressed or not.


Section 10. Nothing in this Thirty-Eighth Supplemental
Indenture expressed or implied, is intended or shall be
construed to confer upon, or to give to, any person, co-
partnership or corporation, other than the parties hereto
and the holders of the bonds and coupons outstanding
under the Mortgage, any right, remedy, or claim under or
by reason of this Thirty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture or
any covenant, condition or stipulation hereof; and all
the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and
agreements in this Thirty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture
contained by or on behalf of the Company shall be for the
sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and of
the holders of the bonds and of the coupons outstanding
under the Mortgage.

Section 11. The Company covenants that all of the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Mortgage shall be
applicable to the 2023 PC Bond issued hereunder, except
as herein otherwise provided and except insofar as the
same may be inconsistent with the provisions of this
Thirty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture.

Section 12. This Thirty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture is
dated as of October 1, 1993, although executed and
delivered on the date of the acknowledgment hereof by the

  THIS THIRTY-NINTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, dated as of

a corporation of the State of Indiana, hereinafter sometimes
called the "Company," party of the first part, and American

  Whereas, the Company by a Mortgage and Deed of Trust

modification thereof, and the "Mortgage" when referred to
as now or heretofore supplemented and modified) dated as
of May 1, 1940, made to said American National Bank and
Trust Company of Chicago, as Trustee, to secure the payment
of the bonds issued from time to time under the Mortgage
for the purposes of and subject to the limitations
specified in the Mortgage, and to secure the performance
of the covenants therein contained, conveyed to
the Trustee thereunder upon certain trusts, terms and
conditions, and with and subject to certain provisos and
covenants therein contained, all and singular the property,
rights and franchises which the Company then owned or should

  Whereas, Section 8 of the Original Mortgage provides,
among other things, that the form of each series of bonds
(other than the initial issue of bonds) issued thereunder
shall be established by an indenture supplemental thereto
authorized by resolution of the Board of Directors of the
Company, and that the form of each series, as established
by the Board of Directors, shall specify the descriptive
title of the bonds and various other terms thereof, and
may also contain other provisions as the Board of Directors
may, in its discretion, cause to be inserted therein expressing
or referring to the terms and conditions upon which such bonds
are to be issued and secured under the Original Mortgage or
any indenture supplemental thereto or in modification
thereof; and

  Whereas, the Company now desires to provide for the
establishment, execution, authentication and delivery
under the Mortgage of bonds of a series to be known
as its "First Mortgage Bonds, 6.05% Series, due
2004" (the bonds of said series being hereinafter
sometimes referred to as the "2004 Bonds"), limited to
the aggregate principal amount of Eighty Million
Dollars ($80,000,000); and

  Whereas, all things necessary to make the 2004 Bonds
hereinafter described, when duly executed by the Company
and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, valid,
binding and legal obligations of the Company, and to make
this Thirty-Ninth Supplemental Indenture a valid and binding
agreement supplemental to the Original Mortgage, have been
done and performed; and

  Whereas, the execution and delivery by the Company of
this Thirty-Ninth Supplemental Indenture, and the terms
of the 2004 Bonds, have been duly authorized by the Board
of Directors of the Company by appropriate resolutions of
said Board; and

  Whereas, it is provided in and by the Original Mortgage
that the Company will execute and deliver such further
instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary
or proper to carry out more effectually the purposes of the
Mortgage, and to make subject to the lien thereof any
property thereafter acquired and intended to be subject
to the lien thereof; and

  Whereas, the Company has, since the date of execution
and delivery of the Original Mortgage, purchased and
acquired property and desires by this Thirty-Ninth
Supplemental Indenture specifically to convey to
the Trustee such property for the better protection
and security of the bonds issued and to be issued under
the Original Mortgage, or any indenture supplemental thereto;

  Now, Therefore, This Indenture Witnesseth that, in
consideration of the premises and of the acceptance or
purchase of the 2004 Bonds by the registered owners thereof,

or a day on which banking institutions in the City of Chicago, Illinois,
are authorized by law to close, the day next succeeding such tenth day which

rized to close.

  American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago is hereby designated
and appointed the office and agency of the Company for the payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the 2004 Bonds and for the
registration, transfer and exchange of such bonds as hereinafter provided;
all reference herein to the office or agency of the Company for the payment
of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the 2004 Bonds, or the
registration, transfer or exchange thereof, being to American National Bank
and Trust Company of Chicago. In the event of the resignation or inability
to act of American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago, then a
successor agent for all such purposes in the City of Chicago, Illinois,
shall be appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company.

  The 2004 Bonds shall be dated as of the date of authentication thereof,
except as otherwise provided in Section 10 of the Original Mortgage.

  The 2004 Bonds shall initially be issued and held in book-entry form on
the books of the central depository system, The Depository Trust Company,
its successors, or any successor central depository system appointed by the
Company from time to time (the "Clearing Agency"). The Company and the
Trustee may, in connection herewith, do or perform or cause to be done or
performed any acts or things not adverse to the rights of the holders of the
2004 Bonds, as are necessary or appropriate to accomplish or recognize such
book-entry form 2004 Bonds.

  So long as the 2004 Bonds remain and are held in book-entry form on the
books of a Clearing Agency, then (a) any such 2004 Bond may be registered
upon the books kept by the Trustee in the name of such Clearing Agency, or
any nominee thereof, including Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository
Trust Company; (b) the Clearing Agency in whose names such 2004 Bond is so
registered shall be, and the Company and the Trustee may deem and treat
such Clearing Agency as, the absolute owner and holder of such 2004 Bond
for all purposes of the Indenture, including, without limitation, the
receiving of payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on
such 2004 Bond, the receiving of notice and giving of consent; (c) neither
the Company nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility or obligation
hereunder to any direct or indirect participant, within the meaning of
Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of such
Clearing Agency, or any person on behalf of which, or otherwise in respect
of which, any such participant holds any interest in any 2004 Bond,
including, without limitation, any responsibility or obligation hereunder
to maintain accurate records of any beneficial interests in any 2004 Bond
or any responsibility or obligation hereunder with respect to the receiv-
ing by such participants or the beneficial owners of payment of principal,
premium, if any, or interest on any 2004 Bonds, the receiving by such
participants or the beneficial owners of notice or the giving of consent
by such participants or the beneficial owners; and (d) the Clearing
Agency is not required to present any 2004 Bond called for partial
redemption prior to receiving payment so long as the Trustee and the
Clearing Agency have agreed to the method for noting such partial redemption.

  If (a) the Company receives notice from the Clearing Agency which is cur-
rently the registered owner of the 2004 Bonds to the effect that such
Clearing Agency is unable or unwilling to discharge its responsibility as a
Clearing Agency for the 2004 Bonds or (b) the Company elects to discontinue
its use of such Clearing Agency as a Clearing Agency for the 2004 Bonds,
then the Company and Trustee each shall do or perform or cause to be done
or performed all acts or things, not adverse to the rights of the holders of
the 2004 Bonds, as are necessary or appropriate to discontinue use of such
Clearing Agency as a Clearing Agency for the 2004 Bonds and to transfer the
ownership of each of the 2004 Bonds to such person or persons, including any
other Clearing Agency, as the holder of the 2004 Bonds may direct in
accordance with the Indenture. Any expenses of such discontinuance and
transfer, including expenses of printing new certificates to evidence the
2024 Bonds, shall be paid by the Company.

  So long as the 2004 Bonds remain and are held in book-entry form on the
books of a Clearing Agency, the Trustee shall be entitled to request and
rely upon a certificate or other written representation from the Clearing
Agency or any participant or indirect participant with respect to the
identity of any beneficial owners of the 2004 Bonds as of a record date
selected by the Trustee. For purposes of determining whether the consent,
advice, direction or demand of a Bondholder has been obtained, the Trustee
shall be entitled to treat the beneficial owners of the 2004 Bonds as the
Bondholders and any consent, request, direction, approval, objection or
other instrument of such beneficial owner may be obtained in the same
fashion described in the Indenture.

  The 2004 Bonds shall not be subject to redemption by the Company prior to
the maturity thereof except out of monies deposited with the Trustee repre-
senting the proceeds of mortgaged and pledged property taken by the exercise
of the power of eminent domain or otherwise as provided in paragraph B of
Section 69 of the Mortgage, in which event the redemption price of the 2004
Bonds so to be redeemed shall be the principal amount of such bonds plus
accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption.

  At the option of the holder, any 2004 Bond, upon surrender thereof at said
office or agency of the Company together with a written instrument of
transfer in form approved by the Company duly executed by the holder or by
his duly authorized attorney, shall be exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of fully registered bonds of the same series of other
authorized denominations.

  The 2004 Bonds shall be transferable on the books of the Company at said
office or agency of the Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, by the
registered holder thereof, in person or by his duly authorized attorney,
upon surrender thereof for cancellation.

 The Company shall not be required to make transfers or exchanges of any of
the 2004 Bonds for a period of ten (10) days next preceding any interest
payment date of said bonds.

  No charge shall be made upon any transfer or exchange of any of the 2004
Bonds other than for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge required
to be paid by the Company.

  The 2004 Bonds shall be limited to an aggregate principal amount of Eighty
Million Dollars ($80,000,000) and shall be issued under the provisions of
Article VII of the Original Mortgage.

  Section 3. The 2004 Bonds, and the Trustee's Certificate to be endorsed
thereon, shall be in the following forms, respectively:

                  First Mortgage Bond, 6.05% Series, Due 2004
                             Due February 1, 2004

  This bond is one of an issue of bonds of the Company, issuable in series,
and is one of a series known as its First Mortgage Bonds, 6.05% Series, due
2004 (herein sometimes called the "2004 Bonds") limited in aggregate
principal amount to Eighty Million Dollars ($80,000,000) and established by
a Thirty-Ninth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 1, 1994, all
bonds of all series issued and to be issued under and equally secured
(except insofar as any sinking or other fund, established in accordance with
the provisions of the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may afford additional
security for the bonds of any particular series) by a Mortgage and Deed of
Trust, dated as of May 1, 1940, executed by the Company to American National
Bank and Trust Company of Chicago, as Trustee (which Mortgage and Deed of
Trust as supplemented and modified by all supplemental indentures thereto is
hereinafter referred to as the "Mortgage"), to which Mortgage reference is
made for a description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and
extent of the security, the rights of the bearers or registered owners of the
bonds in respect of such security, the duties and immunities of the Trustee
and the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are secured.

  With the consent of the Company and to the extent permitted by and as pro-
vided in the Mortgage, the rights and obligations of the Company and/or of
the holders of the bonds and/or coupons and/or the terms and provisions of
the Mortgage and/or any instruments supplemental thereto may be modified or
altered by affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six
and two-thirds per centum (66 2/3%) in principal amount of the bonds
affected by such modification or alteration then outstanding under the
Mortgage (excluding bonds disqualified from voting by reason of the
Company's interest therein as provided in the Mortgage); provided that no
such modification or alteration shall permit the extension of the maturity
of the principal of this bond or the reduction in the rate of interest hereon
or any other modification in the terms of payment of such principal or
interest without the consent of the holder hereof. The principal hereof may
be declared or may become due and payable prior to the stated date of
maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner and at the time set forth
in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a completed default as in the
Mortgage provided.

  The 2004 Bonds are issuable only in fully registered form without coupons
in the denomination of one thousand dollars and any larger denomination
which is a multiple of one thousand dollars. In the manner and upon
payment of the charges hereinafter mentioned, the 2004 Bonds, upon surrender
thereof at the office or agency of the Company in the City of Chicago,
Illinois, together with a written instrument of transfer in form approved by
the Company duly executed by the registered holder or by his duly authorized
attorney, are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of fully
registered bonds of the same series of other authorized denominations.

  This bond is transferable as prescribed in the Mortgage by the registered
owner hereof in person, or by his duly authorized attorney, at the office or
agency of the Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender and
cancellation of this bond and upon presentation of a written instrument of
transfer, duly executed and upon payment of the charges hereinafter
mentioned, and, thereupon, a new fully registered bond of the same series
for a like principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange
herefor as provided in the Mortgage. The Company and the Trustee may deem
and treat the person in whose name this bond is registered as the absolute
owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment and for all other purposes.

  No charge shall be made upon any transfer or exchange of any of the 2004
Bonds other than for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge required
to be paid by the Company.

  The Company shall not be required to make transfers or exchanges of any of
the 2004 Bonds for a period of ten (10) days next preceding any interest pay-
ment date of said bonds.

  The 2004 Bonds are not subject to redemption by the Company prior to the
maturity thereof except out of monies deposited with the Trustee representing
the proceeds of mortgaged and pledged property taken by the exercise of the
power of eminent domain or otherwise as provided in paragraph B of Section 69
of the Mortgage, in which event the redemption price of the 2004 Bonds so to
be redeemed shall be the principal amount of such bonds plus accrued interest
thereon to the date of redemption.

  No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or interest on
this bond against any incorporator or any past, present or future subscriber
to the capital stock, stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of
any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either directly or through
the Company or any predecessor or successor corporation, under any rule of
law, statute or constitution or by the enforcement of any assessment or other-
wise, all such liability of incorporators, subscribers, stockholders, officers
and directors, as such, being waived and released by the terms of the Mort-
gage.

  Section 4. Until the 2004 Bonds in definitive form are ready for delivery,
the Company may execute, and upon its request in writing the Trustee shall au-
thenticate and deliver, in lieu thereof, fully registered 2004 Bonds in tempo-
rary form, as provided in Section 15 of the Original Mortgage. Such bonds may,
in lieu of the statement of the specific redemption prices required to be set
forth in such bonds in definitive form, include a reference to this Thirty-
Ninth Supplemental Indenture for a statement of such redemption prices.

  Section 5. The covenant of the Company to make annual payments
to the Trustee for a Maintenance and Improvement Fund as contained in Section
41 of the Original Mortgage and in the first twenty-four Supplemental Inden-
tures to the Original Mortgage creating the several series of First Mortgage
Bonds presently outstanding under such Supplemental Indentures shall not
apply to, or be for the benefit of, the 2004 Bonds, and the Company reserves
the right, without any consent of, or other action by, the holders of the
2004 Bonds, to amend, modify or delete the provisions of the Mortgage
relating to such Maintenance and Improvement Fund, and by acceptance of the
2004 Bonds, the holders thereof waive any right or privilege so to consent or
take any other action with respect thereto.

  Section 6. The Company covenants that, so long as any of the 2004 Bonds
shall remain outstanding, it will comply with all of the provisions of
Section 47 of the Original Mortgage, including the provisions with respect
to limitations on dividends and distributions and the purchase and
redemption of stock.

  Section 7. The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts herein declared, provided
and created and agrees to perform the same upon the terms and conditions
herein and in the Mortgage set forth and upon the following terms and
conditions:

  The recitals contained herein and in the bonds shall be taken as the state-
ments of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the cor-
rectness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity
or adequacy of the security afforded hereby, or as to the validity of this
Thirty-Ninth Supplemental Indenture or of the bonds issued hereunder.

  Section 8. Whenever in this Thirty-Ninth Supplemental Indenture either of
the parties hereto is named or referred to, this shall, subject to the
provisions of Article XVII of the Original Mortgage, be deemed to include
the successors or assigns of such party, and all the covenants and
agreements in this Thirty-Ninth Supplemental Indenture contained by or on
behalf of the Company, or by or on behalf of the Trustee, shall, subject as
aforesaid, bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and
assigns of such parties, whether so expressed or not.

  Section 9. Nothing in this Thirty-Ninth Supplemental Indenture, expressed
or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer upon, or to give to,
any person, co-partnership or corporation, other than the parties hereto and
the holders of the bonds and coupons outstanding under the Mortgage, any
right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Thirty-Ninth Supplemental
Indenture or any covenant, condition or stipulation hereof; and all the
covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this
Thirty-Ninth Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Company
shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and of the
holders of the bonds and of the coupons outstanding under the Mortgage.

  Section 10. The Company covenants that all of the terms, provisions and
conditions of the Mortgage shall be applicable to the 2004 Bonds issued
hereunder, except as herein otherwise provided and except insofar as
the same may be inconsistent with the provisions of this Thirty-Ninth
Supplemental Indenture.

  Section 11. This Thirty-Ninth Supplemental Indenture is dated as of
February 1, 1994, although executed and delivered on the date of
the acknowledgment hereof by the Trustee; and shall be simultaneously
executed and delivered in several counterparts, and all such counterparts
executed and delivered, each as an original, shall constitute but one and
the same instrument.

the Board of Directors may, in its discretion, cause to be inserted therein
expressing or referring to the terms and conditions upon which such bonds
are to be issued and secured under the Original Mortgage or any indenture

  Whereas, the Company now desires to provide for the establishment, execu-
tion, authentication and delivery under the Mortgage of bonds of a series to
be known as its "First Mortgage Bonds, 7.05% Series, due 2024" (the bonds of
said series being hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "2024 Bonds"), lim-
ited to the aggregate principal amount of One Hundred Million Dollars
($100,000,000); and

  Whereas, all things necessary to make the 2024 Bonds hereinafter described,

Trustee, valid, binding and legal obligations of the Company, and to make this
Fortieth Supplemental Indenture a valid and binding agreement supplemental to
the Original Mortgage, have been done and performed; and

mental Indenture, and the terms of the 2024 Bonds, have been duly authorized
by the Board of Directors of the Company by appropriate resolutions of said
Board; and

  Whereas, it is provided in and by the Original Mortgage that the Company
will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as
may be necessary or proper to carry out more effectually the purposes of the
Mortgage, and to make subject to the lien thereof any property thereafter ac-
quired and intended to be subject to the lien thereof; and

  Whereas, the Company has, since the date of execution and delivery of the
Original Mortgage, purchased and acquired property and desires by this Forti-
eth Supplemental Indenture specifically to convey to the Trustee such

authorized to close.

  American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago is hereby designated
and appointed the office and agency of the Company for the payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the 2024 Bonds and
for the registration, transfer and exchange of such bonds as hereinafter
provided; all reference herein to the office or agency of the Company for
the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the 2024
Bonds, or the registration, transfer or exchange thereof, being to American
National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago. In the event of the resignation
or inability to act of American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago,
then a successor agent for all such purposes in the City of Chicago,
Illinois, shall be appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company.

  The 2024 Bonds shall be dated as of the date of authentication thereof, ex-
cept as otherwise provided in Section 10 of the Original Mortgage.

  The 2024 Bonds shall initially be issued and held in book-entry form on the
books of the central depository system, The Depository Trust Company, its suc-
cessors, or any successor central depository system appointed by the Company
from time to time (the "Clearing Agency"). The Company and the Trustee may,
in connection herewith, do or perform or cause to be done or performed any
acts or things not adverse to the rights of the holders of the 2024 Bonds,
as are necessary or appropriate to accomplish or recognize such
book-entry form 2024 Bonds.

  So long as the 2024 Bonds remain and are held in book-entry form on the
books of a Clearing Agency, then (a) any such 2024 Bond may be registered
upon the books kept by the Trustee in the name of such Clearing Agency, or
any nominee thereof, including Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository
Trust Company; (b) the Clearing Agency in whose names such 2024 Bond is so
registered shall be, and the Company and the Trustee may deem and treat such
Clearing Agency as, the absolute owner and holder of such 2024 Bond for all
purposes of the Indenture, including, without limitation, the receiving of
payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such 2024
Bond, the receiving of notice and giving of consent; (c) neither the Company
nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility or obligation hereunder to any
direct or indirect participant, within the meaning of Section 17A of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of such Clearing Agency, or any
person on behalf of which, or otherwise in respect of which, any such
participant holds any interest in any 2024 Bond, including, without
limitation, any responsibility or obligation hereunder to maintain accurate
records of any beneficial interests in any 2024 Bond or any responsibility
or obligation hereunder with respect to the receiving by such participants
or the beneficial owners of payment of principal, premium, if any, or
interest on any 2024 Bonds, the receiving by such participants or the
beneficial owners of notice or the giving of consent by such participants or
the beneficial owners; and (d) the Clearing Agency is not required to present
any 2024 Bond called for partial redemption prior to receiving payment so
long as the Trustee and the Clearing Agency have agreed to the method for
noting such partial redemption.

  If (a) the Company receives notice from the Clearing Agency which is cur-
rently the registered owner of the 2024 Bonds to the effect that such
Clearing Agency is unable or unwilling to discharge its responsibility as a
Clearing Agency for the 2024 Bonds or (b) the Company elects to discontinue
its use of such Clearing Agency as a Clearing Agency for the 2024 Bonds, then
the Company and Trustee each shall do or perform or cause to be done or
performed all acts or things, not adverse to the rights of the holders of
the 2024 Bonds, as are necessary or appropriate to discontinue use of such
Clearing Agency as a Clearing Agency for the 2024 Bonds and to transfer the
ownership of each of the 2024 Bonds to such person or persons, including any
other Clearing Agency, as the holder of the 2024 Bonds may direct in
accordance with the Indenture. Any expenses of such discontinuance and
transfer, including expenses of printing new certificates to evidence the
2024 Bonds, shall be paid by the Company.

  So long as the 2024 Bonds remain and are held in book-entry form on the
books of a Clearing Agency, the Trustee shall be entitled to request and rely
upon a certificate or other written representation from the Clearing Agency
or any participant or indirect participant with respect to the identity of
any beneficial owners of the 2024 Bonds as of a record date selected by the
Trustee. For purposes of determining whether the consent, advice, direction
or demand of a Bondholder has been obtained, the Trustee shall be entitled to
treat the beneficial owners of the 2024 Bonds as the Bondholders and any
consent, request, direction, approval, objection or other instrument of such
beneficial owner may be obtained in the same fashion described in the
Indenture.

  Upon the notice and in the manner and with the effect provided in the Mort-
gage and in this Section 2, the 2024 Bonds shall be redeemable prior to the
maturity thereof, as a whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the
option of the Company, at the principal amount thereof and accrued interest to
the date of redemption, and at the redemption prices set forth under the head-
ing "Redemption Price" in the form of 2024 Bonds hereinafter recited, if re-
deemed otherwise than in the manner provided in the next paragraph, provided,
however, that none of the 2024 Bonds may be redeemed prior to February 1,
2004.

  Upon the notice and in the manner and with the effect provided in the Mort-
gage and in this Section 2, the 2024 Bonds shall be redeemable by the Company
prior to the maturity thereof out of monies deposited with the Trustee repre-
senting the proceeds of mortgaged and pledged property taken by the exercise
of the power of eminent domain or otherwise as provided in paragraph B of Sec-
tion 69 of the Mortgage, at the principal amount of the 2024 Bonds as to be
redeemed and accrued interest to the date of redemption.

  The notice required for the redemption of the 2024 Bonds shall be as pro-
vided in Section 59 of the Mortgage.

  At the option of the holder, any 2024 Bond, upon surrender thereof at said
office or agency of the Company together with a written instrument of
transfer in form approved by the Company duly executed by the holder or by
his duly authorized attorney, shall be exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of fully registered bonds of the same series of other
authorized denominations.

  The 2024 Bonds shall be transferable on the books of the Company at said of-
fice or agency of the Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, by the regis-
tered holder thereof, in person or by his duly authorized attorney, upon sur-
render thereof for cancellation.

  The Company shall not be required to make transfers or exchanges of any of
the 2024 Bonds for a period of ten (10) days next preceding any interest
payment date of said bonds.

  No charge shall be made upon any transfer or exchange of any of the 2024
Bonds other than for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge required
to be paid by the Company.

  The 2024 Bonds shall be limited to an aggregate principal amount of One Hun-
dred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) and shall be issued under the provisions
of Article VI of the Original Mortgage.

  Section 3. The 2024 Bonds, and the Trustee's Certificate to be endorsed

                  First Mortgage Bond, 7.05% Series, Due 2024
                             Due February 1, 2024

  This bond is one of an issue of bonds of the Company, issuable in series,
and is one of a series known as its First Mortgage Bonds, 7.05% Series, due
2024 (herein sometimes called the "2024 Bonds") limited in aggregate principal
amount to One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) and established by a For-
tieth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 1, 1994, all bonds of all
series issued and to be issued under and equally secured (except insofar as
any sinking or other fund, established in accordance with the provisions of
the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may afford additional security for the
bonds of any particular series) by a Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of
May 1, 1940, executed by the Company to American National Bank and Trust Com-
pany of Chicago, as Trustee (which Mortgage and Deed of Trust as supplemented
and modified by all supplemental indentures thereto is hereinafter referred to
as the "Mortgage"), to which Mortgage reference is made for a description of
the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security,
the rights of the bearers or registered owners of the bonds in respect of
such security, the duties and immunities of the Trustee and the terms and
conditions Upon which the bonds are secured.

  With the consent of the Company and to the extent permitted by and as pro-
vided in the Mortgage, the rights and obligations of the Company and/or of the
holders of the bonds and/or coupons and/or the terms and provisions of the
Mortgage and/or any instruments supplemental thereto may be modified or al-
tered by affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds
per centum (66 2/3%) in principal amount of the bonds affected by such modifi-
cation or alteration then outstanding under the Mortgage (excluding bonds dis-
qualified from voting by reason of the Company's interest therein as provided
in the Mortgage); provided that no such modification or alteration shall per-
mit the extension of the maturity of the principal of this bond or the reduc-
tion in the rate of interest hereon or any other modification in the terms
of payment of such principal or interest without the consent of the holder
hereof. The principal hereof may be declared or may become due and payable
prior to the stated date of maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner
and at the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a completed
default as in the Mortgage provided.

  The 2024 Bonds are issuable only in fully registered form without coupons in
the denomination of one thousand dollars and any larger denomination which is a
multiple of one thousand dollars. In the manner and upon payment of the
charges hereinafter mentioned, the 2024 Bonds, upon surrender thereof at the
office or agency of the Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, together
with a written instrument of transfer in form approved by the Company
duly executed by the registered holder or by his duly authorized attorney,
are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of fully registered
bonds of the same series of other authorized denominations.

  This bond is transferable as prescribed in the Mortgage by the registered
owner hereof in person, or by his duly authorized attorney, at the office or
agency of the Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender and
cancellation of this bond and upon presentation of a written instrument of
transfer, duly executed and upon payment of the charges hereinafter
mentioned, and, thereupon, a new fully registered bond of the same series
for a like principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange
herefor as provided in the Mortgage. The Company and the Trustee may deem
and treat the person in whose name this bond is registered as the absolute
owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment and for all other purposes.

  No charge shall be made upon any transfer or exchange of any of the 2024
Bonds other than for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge required to
be paid by the Company.

  The Company shall not be required to make transfers or exchanges of any of
the 2024 Bonds for a period of ten (10) days next preceding any interest pay-
ment date of said bonds.

  The 2024 Bonds are subject to redemption prior to the maturity thereof, as
a whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the
Company, at the redemption prices set forth below under the heading "Redemp-
tion Price" plus accrued interest to the date of redemption if redeemed other-
wise than in the manner provided in the next paragraph, provided, however,
that none of the 2024 Bonds may be redeemed prior to February 1, 2004.

gage.

eth Supplemental Indenture for a statement of such redemption prices.

Trustee for a Maintenance and Improvement Fund as contained in Section 41 of
the Original Mortgage and in the first twenty-four Supplemental Indentures to
the Original Mortgage creating the several series of First Mortgage Bonds

or be for the benefit of, the 2024 Bonds, and the Company reserves the
right, without any consent of, or other action by, the holders of the 2024
Bonds, to amend, modify or delete the provisions of the Mortgage relating to
such Maintenance and Improvement Fund, and by acceptance of the 2024 Bonds,
the holders thereof waive any right or privilege so to consent or take any
other action with respect thereto.

  Section 6. The Company covenants that, so long as any of the 2024 Bonds
shall remain outstanding, it will comply with all of the provisions of
Section 47 of the Original Mortgage, including the provisions with
respect to limitations on dividends and distributions and the purchase and

  The recitals contained herein and in the bonds shall be taken as the state-
ments of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the cor-
rectness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity
or adequacy of the security afforded hereby, or as to the validity of this
Fortieth Supplemental Indenture or of the bonds issued hereunder.

  Section 8. Whenever in this Fortieth Supplemental Indenture either of the

remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Fortieth Supplemental Indenture
or any covenant, condition or stipulation hereof; and all the covenants,
conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Fortieth

     Upon the notice and in the manner and with the effect provided in
this Section 2, the 2024 PC Bond shall be redeemable prior to the
maturity thereof under any one or more of the following circumstances:


     (a) In whole, at the option of the Company, if the Facilities or
Units 3 or 4 of the Petersburg Generating Station serviced by the
Facilities shall have been damaged or destroyed (i) to such extent
that they cannot be reasonably expected, in the opinion of the
Company, to be restored within a period of six (6) months to the
condition thereof immediately preceding such damage or destruction,
or (ii) to such extent that the Company, in its reasonable opinion,
is thereby prevented from carrying on its normal operations for a
period of six (6) months or more, or (iii) to such extent that the
restoration thereof would not be, taking into consideration the net
proceeds of any insurance payable as a result of such damage or
destruction, economic in the reasonable opinion of the Company.

     (b) In whole, at the option of the Company, if title to, or the
temporary use of, all or substantially all of the Facilities or
Units 3 or 4 of the Petersburg Generating Station serviced by the
Facilities, shall have been taken, under the exercise of the power
of eminent domain, or should any governmental body or agency
exercise any right which it may have to purchase or designate a
purchaser of the same, or should such property be sold to any
governmental body or agency so that the result of such taking or
takings is that (i) the Company, in its reasonable opinion, is
thereby prevented from carrying on its normal operations of either
the Facilities or such Units 3 or 4 for a period of six (6) months
or more, (ii) the restoration required as a result of the taking
cannot be reasonably expected, in the opinion of the Company, to be
completed in a period of six (6) months, or (iii) the restoration
thereof, taking into consideration the net proceeds from such
eminent domain award, would not be economic in the reasonable
opinion of the Company.

     (c) In whole, at the option of the Company, if, as a result of
any changes in the Constitution or law of the State of Indiana or
the Constitution or law of the United States of America or of
legislative or administrative action (whether state or federal) or
by final decree, judgment or order of any court or administrative
body (whether state or federal) entered after the contest thereof by
the Company in good faith or the decision of the Company not to
contest the same, the Loan Agreement shall, in the reasonable
opinion of counsel for the Company, have become void or unenforceable or
impossible of performance in accordance with the intent and purpose of the
parties as expressed in the Loan Agreement; or unreasonable burdens or
excessive liabilities shall, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, have
been imposed upon the City or the Company, with respect to the Facilities or
operation thereof, including without limitation federal, state or other ad
valorem, property, income or other taxes not being imposed on the
date of the Loan Agreement other than ad valorem taxes presently
levied upon privately owned property used for the same general
purpose as the Facilities.

     (d) In whole, at the option of the Company, if changes in the
economic availability of raw materials, operating supplies or
facilities necessary for the operation of the Facilities or the
operation of Units 3 or 4 of the Petersburg Generating Station serviced by
the Facilities shall have occurred or technological or other changes
shall have occurred which render the Facilities or said Units 3 or 4
uneconomic for use in the reasonable opinion of the Company.

     (e) In part, at the option of the Company, to the extent of net
proceeds received from any condemnation award, taking or sale as
stated herein, if title to, or the temporary use of any portion of
the Facilities shall have been taken under the exercise of the power
of eminent domain, or should any governmental body or agency
exercise any right it may have to purchase or designate a purchaser
of the same, or should such property be sold to any governmental
body or agency; provided the Company shall furnish to the City and
the City Trustee a certificate of an Independent Engineer (as
defined in the Loan Agreement) selected by the Company stating (i)
that the property forming the part of the Facilities that was taken
by such condemnation, taking or sale is not essential to the
character or significance of the Facilities, or (ii) that the
Facilities have been restored to a condition substantially
equivalent to their condition prior to the taking by such
condemnation, taking or sale proceedings, or (iii) that improvements
have been acquired which are suitable for the operation of the Facilities.

     (f) In whole, at any time on or after December 1, 2004, or in
part on any interest payment date on or after December 1, 2004, at
the option of the Company at a price equal to the principal amount
of the 2024 PC Bond so to be redeemed and accrued interest to the
date of redemption, together with a premium equal to a  percentage of
the principal amount thereof set forth under the heading ''Redemption
Premium'' in the form of the 2024 PC Bond hereinafter recited, so long as
the Company is not in default under the Loan Agreement or the 2024 PC Bond.

     (g) In the event all or substantially all of the mortgaged and
pledged property under the Mortgage, or all or substantially all
such property used in the business of generating, manufacturing,
transporting, transmitting, distributing or supplying electricity,
should be taken by exercise of the power of eminent domain, or
should any governmental body or agency exercise any right which it
may have to purchase or designate a purchaser of the same, or should
such property be sold to any governmental body or agency, the
Company shall be obligated to redeem the 2024 PC Bond outstanding as
promptly as possible in accordance with paragraph B of Section 69 of
the Original Mortgage.

     (h) In the event that the Company is notified by the City Trustee
that (i) an event of default under the City Indenture has occurred
and is continuing, and (ii) the City Trustee has declared the
principal of all the Series 1995A Bonds then outstanding immediately
due and payable pursuant to the City Indenture, the Company shall
call for redemption, on a redemption date selected by it not later
than thirty (30) days following the date on which such notice is
mailed, the 2024 PC Bond outstanding, and shall on such redemption
date redeem the same; provided, however, that such requirement of
redemption shall be deemed waived, if prior to the date fixed for
such redemption of the 2024 PC Bond (x) such event of default is
waived or cured as set forth in the City Indenture, or (y) there
shall have occurred any completed default (as defined in the
Mortgage) which affects any bond of any series outstanding under the
Mortgage and which completed default has not been cured and made
good prior to such redemption date, it being the intent of this
proviso that, in lieu of such right to redemption, the holder of the
2024 PC Bond shall be entitled only to such rights as are available
to the holders of bonds of any other series outstanding under the
Mortgage in the event of such completed default; and in case of any
subsequent occurrence or continuance of the events described in (i)
and (ii) of this Section 2(h), the Company shall have the same
obligation (subject to the same proviso) to redeem the 2024 PC Bond.


     (i) In the event the City Trustee notifies the Company and the
City that the interest payable on the Series 1995A Bonds held by
persons other than a ''substantial user'' or a ''related person'' as
those terms are used in Section 147(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, has been determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction or a formal ruling of the Internal Revenue
Service to be subject to federal income taxation by reason of a
breach by the Company of any covenant, agreement or representation
in the Loan Agreement, the Company shall call the 2024 PC Bond then
outstanding to be redeemed on the next succeeding interest payment
date within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such
notice; provided, however, that such requirement of redemption,
whether in whole or in part shall be deemed waived if, prior to the
date fixed for redemption of the 2024 PC Bond pursuant to this
Section 2(i), there shall have occurred any completed default (as
defined in the Mortgage) which affects any bond of any series
outstanding under the Mortgage and which completed default has not
been cured and made good prior to such redemption date, it being the
intent of this proviso that, in lieu of such right to redemption,
the holder of the 2024 PC Bond shall be entitled only to such rights
as are available to the holders of bonds of any other series
outstanding under the Mortgage in the event of such completed
default; but when any such completed default shall have been cured
and made good, if interest on the Series 1995A Bonds shall still be
taxable as described above, the Company shall have the same
obligation (subject to the same proviso) to redeem the 2024 PC Bond
on the next succeeding interest payment date within one hundred
eighty (180) days after the curing and making good of such completed
default; provided further, that the Company may call for redemption
such portion of the 2024 PC Bond, which in the written opinion of an
attorney or firm of attorneys of nationally recognized standing on
the subject of municipal bonds, would allow the City Trustee to
redeem the Series 1995A Bonds in part, which redemption would have
the result that the interest payable on the Series 1995A Bonds
remaining outstanding after such redemption in part would not be
subject to federal income taxation in the hands of persons other
than a ''substantial user'' or a ''related person'' as those terms
are used in Section 147(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended.

     In case of redemption of 2024 PC Bond in whole for the purpose of
prepayment under the Loan Agreement pursuant to subsections (a), (b),
(c), (d), (f), (g), (h) or (i) above, the amounts payable upon
redemption of 2024 PC Bond shall be a sum sufficient, together with
other funds deposited with the City Trustee and available for such
purpose, to pay the principal of (and premium, in the case of
redemption pursuant to (f) above), and interest on the 2024 PC Bond
then outstanding and to pay all reasonable and necessary fees and
expenses of the City Trustee accrued and to accrue through final
payment of the 2024 PC Bond.

     In case of redemption in part pursuant to (e), (f) or (i) above,
the amount payable by the Company under this Forty-First Supplemental
Indenture, the Loan Agreement and the 2024 PC Bond shall be a sum
sufficient, together with other funds deposited with the Trustee and
available for such purpose, to pay the principal of (and premium in the
case of prepayment pursuant to (f) above) and interest on the 2024 PC
Bond so to be redeemed, which sum together with other funds deposited
with the City Trustee and available for such purpose shall be
sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on
the Series 1995A Bonds and to pay all reasonable and necessary fees and
expenses of the City Trustee accrued and to accrue through such partial
prepayment.

     The 2024 PC Bond and the Series 1995A Bonds shall be redeemable at
any time within one hundred eighty (180) days following the event or
events described as giving rise to an option of the Company to redeem
them in subsections (a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) above.

     To exercise any of the options granted to redeem the 2024 PC Bond
in whole or in part or to comply with any obligations to redeem the 2024
PC Bond in whole or in part imposed in this Section 2, the Company
shall give written notice of the date of redemption to the City
Trustee, which date shall be not less than thirty (30) days nor more
than ninety (90) days from the date the notice is mailed.  No further
notice, by publication or otherwise, shall be required for redemption
of the 2024 PC Bond, and the requirements of Section 59 of the Mortgage
for notice by newspaper publication shall not apply to the 2024 PC Bond.

     At the option of the holder, the 2024 PC Bond, upon surrender
thereof at the office or agency of the Company in Chicago, Illinois,
together with a written instrument of transfer in form approved by the
Company duly executed by the holder or by his duly authorized attorney,

registered bonds of the same series of other authorized denominations.


     The 2024 PC Bond will be nontransferable except to the City Trustee
and successors thereto, if any, and to the Company. To the extent that
it is transferable, it is transferable by the registered holder
thereof, in person or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on the
books of the Company at the office or agency of the Company in the City
of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender thereof for cancellation at said
office and upon presentation of a written instrument of transfer duly
executed. Thereupon, the Company shall issue in the name of the
transferee, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new
registered 2024 PC Bond or Bonds, in authorized denominations, of equal
aggregate principal amount. Any such transfer shall be subject to the
terms and conditions specified in the Mortgage and in this Forty-First
Supplemental Indenture.

     The Company shall not be required to transfer or exchange the 2024
PC Bond for a period of ten (10) days next preceding any interest
payment date of said bond.

dated as of January 15, 1995, all bonds of all series issued and to be
issued under and equally secured (except insofar as any sinking or
other fund, established in accordance with the provisions of the
Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may afford additional security for the

the duties and immunities of the Trustee and the terms and conditions
upon which the bonds are secured.

     This 2024 PC Bond evidences and secures a loan made by the City to
the Company, pursuant to a Loan Agreement, dated as of January 15,
1995, between the City and the Company (the ''Loan Agreement''). In

Revenue Bonds, Series 1995A (Indianapolis Power & Light Company
Project) (the ''City Bonds'') under and pursuant to the City Indenture.
The City Bonds are payable from payments made by the Company of
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this 2024 PC Bond and
from moneys in the Bond Fund created under the City Indenture. The
obligation of the Company to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on this 2024 PC Bond shall be discharged to the extent that
any moneys in said Bond Fund are available for payments on the City
Bonds and are directed by the Company to be applied thereto, all as
provided in the Forty-First Supplemental Indenture.

     This 2024 PC Bond is not subject to redemption prior to December 1,

thirty (30) days prior notice, all as provided in the Forty-First
Supplemental Indenture, at a price equal to the principal amount of the

and without premium if redeemed after November 30, 2006.

     With the consent of the Company and to the extent permitted by and
as provided in the Mortgage, the rights and obligations of the Company
and/or of the holders of the bonds and/or coupons and/or the terms and
provisions of the Mortgage and/or any instruments supplemental thereto
may be modified or altered by affirmative vote of the holders of at
least sixty-six and two-thirds per centum (662/3%) in principal amount
of the bonds affected by such modification or alteration then
outstanding under the Mortgage (excluding bonds disqualified from
voting by reason of the Company's interest therein as provided in the
Mortgage); provided that no such modification or alteration shall
permit the extension of the maturity of the principal of this 2024 PC
Bond or the reduction in the rate of interest hereon or any other
modification in the terms of payment of such principal or interest
without the consent of the holder hereof. The principal hereof may be
declared or may become due and payable prior to the stated date of
maturity hereof, on the conditions, in the manner and at the time set
forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a completed default as in
the Mortgage provided.

     No reference herein to the Mortgage, and no provision of this 2024
PC Bond or of the Mortgage, shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay, subject to the
provisions of the Forty-First Supplemental Indenture, the principal of,
and premium, if any, and interest on this 2024 PC Bond at the place, at
the respective times and at the rate and the manner herein prescribed.


     This 2024 PC Bond is issuable only in full registered form without
coupons in denominations of Five Thousand Dollars and any larger
denomination which is a whole multiple of Five Thousand Dollars.

     This 2024 PC Bond will be nontransferable except to the City Trustee
and successors thereto, if any, and to the Company. To the extent that
it is transferable, it is transferable by the registered holder
thereof, in person or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on the
books of the Company at the office or agency of the Company in the City
of Chicago, Illinois, upon surrender thereof for cancellation at said
office and upon presentation of a written instrument of transfer duly
executed. Thereupon, the Company shall issue in the name of the
transferee, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new
registered 2024 PC Bond or Bonds, in authorized denominations, of equal
aggregate principal amount. Any such transfer shall be subject to the
terms and conditions specified in the Mortgage and in the Forty-First
Supplemental Indenture.

[end of 2024 pc bond form]

     Section 4. Until the 2024 PC Bond in definitive form is ready for
delivery, the Company may execute, and upon its request in writing the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu thereof, a fully
registered 2024 PC Bond in temporary form, as provided in Section 15 of
the Original Mortgage. Such bond may, in lieu of the statement of the
specific redemption prices required to be set forth in such bond in
definitive form, include a reference to this Forty-First Supplemental
Indenture for a statement of such redemption prices.

     Section 5. The Company covenants and agrees that it will duly and
punctually pay to the holder of the 2024 PC Bond the principal thereof,
premium, if any, and interest on said bond at the dates and place and
in the manner mentioned therein; provided, however, that:

     (a) The obligation of the Company to pay the principal of, and
premium, if any, and interest on the 2024 PC Bond shall be
discharged to the extent that any moneys in the Series 1995A Bond
Account within the Bond Fund created under and pursuant to the City
Indenture are available for the payment of the principal of, or
premium, if any, or interest on the Series 1995A Bonds and are
directed by the Company to be applied to the payment thereof in the
manner provided in the City Indenture on or prior to the dates on
which the Company is required to pay the principal of, or premium,
if any, or interest on the 2024 PC Bond.

     (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, the principal
amount of any Series 1995A Bond acquired by the Company and
delivered to the City Trustee, or acquired by the City Trustee and
cancelled, shall be credited against the obligation of the Company
to pay the principal of the 2024 PC Bond.

As the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the 2024 PC Bond
is paid or deemed paid in full, and upon its receipt by the Company,
such bond shall be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The
Company shall promptly inform the Trustee of all payments made and
credits availed of with respect to its obligations on the 2024 PC Bond.
The Trustee shall not be required to recognize any payment made or
credit availed of with respect to any 2024 PC Bond unless it has
received (a) the bond for cancellation by it, or (b) a certificate
signed by a duly authorized officer of the City Trustee specifying the
amount of such payment or credit and the principal amount of the 2024
PC Bond with respect to which the payment or credit was applied. In the
absence of receipt by the Trustee of any 2024 PC Bond, any such
certificate shall be controlling and conclusive.

     Section 6. The covenant of the Company to make annual payments to
the Trustee for a Maintenance and Improvement Fund as contained in
Section 41 of the Original Mortgage and in the first twenty-four
Supplemental Indentures to the Original Mortgage creating the several
series of First Mortgage Bonds presently outstanding under such
Supplemental Indentures shall not apply to nor be for the benefit of
the 2024 PC Bond, and the Company reserves the right, without any
consent of, or other action by, the holder of the 2024 PC Bond, to
amend, modify or delete the provisions of the Mortgage relating to such
Maintenance and Improvement Fund and by acceptance of the 2024 PC Bond
the holder thereof waives any right or privilege so to consent or take
any other action with respect thereto.

     Section 7. The Company covenants that, so long as the 2024 PC Bond
shall remain outstanding, it will comply with all of the provisions of
Section 47 of the Original Mortgage, including the provisions with
respect to limitations on dividends and distributions and the purchase
and redemption of stock.

     Section 8. The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts herein declared,
provided and created and agrees to perform the same upon the terms and
conditions herein and in the Mortgage set forth and upon the following
terms and conditions:

     The recitals contained herein and in the bonds shall be taken as the
statements of the Company and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for
the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to
the validity or adequacy of the security afforded hereby, or as to the
validity of this Forty-First Supplemental Indenture or of the 2024 PC
Bond issued hereunder.

     Section 9. Whenever in this Forty-First Supplemental Indenture
either of the parties hereto is named or referred to, this shall,
subject to the provisions of Article XVII of the Original Mortgage, be
deemed to include the successors or assigns of such party, and all the
covenants and agreements in this Forty-First Supplemental Indenture
contained by or on behalf of the Company, or by or on behalf of the
Trustee, shall, subject as aforesaid, bind and inure to the benefit of
the respective successors and assigns of such parties, whether so
expressed or not.

     Section 10. Nothing in this Forty-First Supplemental Indenture
expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer upon,
or to give to, any person, co-partnership or corporation, other than
the parties hereto and the holders of the bonds and coupons outstanding
under the Mortgage, any right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of
this Forty-First Supplemental Indenture or any covenant, condition or
stipulation hereof; and all the covenants, conditions, stipulations,
promises and agreements in this Forty-First Supplemental Indenture
contained by or on behalf of the Company shall be for the sole and
exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and of the holders of the bonds
and of the coupons outstanding under the Mortgage.

     Section 11. The Company covenants that all of the terms, provisions
and conditions of the Mortgage shall be applicable to the 2024 PC Bond
issued hereunder, except as herein otherwise provided and except
insofar as the same may be inconsistent with the provisions of this
Forty-First Supplemental Indenture.

     Section 12. This Forty-First Supplemental Indenture is dated as of
January 15, 1995, although executed and delivered on the date of the
acknowledgement hereof by the Trustee; and shall be simultaneously
executed and delivered in several counterparts, and all such
counterparts executed and delivered, each as an original, shall

Bonds, 5.21% Series, due 2023 (herein called the ''2023 PC Bond'')
limited in aggregate principal amount to Forty Million Dollars
($40,000,000) and established by a Forty-Second Supplemental Indenture
dated as of October 1, 1995 (the ''Indenture''), all bonds of all
series issued and to be issued under and equally secured (except
insofar as any sinking or other fund, established in accordance with
the provisions of the Mortgage hereinafter mentioned, may afford
additional security for the bonds of any particular series) by a
Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of May 1, 1940, executed by the
Company to American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago, as the
Trustee (which Mortgage and Deed of Trust as supplemented and modified
by all supplemental indentures thereto is hereinafter referred to as

description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and
extent of the security, the rights of the bearers or registered owners
of the bonds in respect of such security, the duties and immunities of
the Trustee and the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are secured.

     This 2023 PC Bond evidences and secures the reimbursement
obligations of the Company to AMBAC under the Insurance Agreement for
the payment by AMBAC of the principal of and interest on the Series

of the bonds affected by such modification or alteration then
outstanding under the Mortgage (excluding bonds disqualified from
voting by reason of the Company's interest therein as provided in the
Mortgage); provided that no such modification or alteration shall
permit the extension of the maturity of the principal of this 2023 PC
Bond or the reduction in the rate of interest hereon or any other

or may become due and payable prior to the stated date of maturity

not be required to recognize any payment made or credit availed of with
respect to any 2023 PC Bond unless it has received (a) the bond for
cancellation by it, or (b) certificates signed by duly authorized
officers of AMBAC Indemnity or AFSLP specifying the amount of such
payment or credit. In the absence of receipt by the Trustee of any 2023
PC Bond, any such certificates shall be controlling and conclusive.

                 AND CINERGY SERVICES, INC.


     0.01 THIS THIRD AMENDMENT, dated on the 30th day of June
1995,  among  INDIANAPOLIS POWER & LIGHT COMPANY (hereinafter
referred  to as "IPL"), a corporation organized and  existing
under  the laws of the State of Indiana and PSI ENERGY,  INC.
(hereinafter  referred to as "PSI"), a corporation  organized
and  existing  under the laws of the State  of  Indiana,  and
CINERGY  SERVICES, INC. (hereinafter referred to as  "CINergy
Services"),  a corporation organized and existing  under  the
laws of the State of Delaware.  IPL, PSI and CINergy Services
are sometimes hereinafter referred to individually as "Party"
and collectively as "Parties" where appropriate.
                    W I T N E S S E T H:

     0.02  WHEREAS, There is now in force and effect  between
IPL and PSI an Interconnection Agreement, dated as of May  1,
1992,   (said  Interconnection  Agreement  being  the   Ninth
Supplement to the 1962 Interconnection Agreement between  IPL
and PSI, herein called the "1992 Agreement"); and

     0.03  WHEREAS,  The  Cincinnati Gas &  Electric  Company
("CG&E")  and  PSI  merged on October 24,  1994,  and  formed
CINergy Corp. with CG&E and PSI now being called the "CINergy
Operating Companies"; and

     0.04 WHEREAS, CG&E, PSI and CINergy Services are parties
to  a  Service Agreement, dated March 2, 1994, which has been
approved  by the Securities and Exchange Commission  and  the
Indiana  Utility  Regulatory Commission (IURC),  under  which
CINergy  Services  will act as PSI*s agent  in  administering
PSI*s interconnection agreements and the three companies  are
also  parties to an Operating Agreement, dated March 2, 1994,
on  file  with and accepted by the FERC and approved  by  the
IURC   under   which  CINergy  Services  will  dispatch   the
generating units of CG&E, PSI and CINergy Services; and

     0.05  WHEREAS,  the Parties desire to  modify  the  1992
Agreement, as hereinafter set forth; and

     0.06  NOW,  THEREFORE, in consideration of the  premises
and mutual covenants and agreements of the Parties, as herein
set forth, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

                         ARTICLE 1
             PROVISIONS FOR, AND CONTINUITY OF
                  INTERCONNECTED OPERATION

          1.01.    Interconnection  Points.   The  respective
138,00 volt and 345,000 volt transmission systems of IPL  and
PSI are presently interconnected at the following points:

     (i)   The 138kV Five Points Interconnection Point
     (ii)  The 345kV Whitestown Interconnection Point

     (iii) The 345kV Gwynneville Interconnection Point
     (iv)  The 138kV Petersburg Interconnection Point
     (v)   The 345kV Petersburg Interconnection Point
     (vi)  The 138kV Centerton Interconnection Point
     (vii) The 138kV Carmel Tap Point

          1.02.  Future Interconnection Points.  The services
provided  for  by  the 1992 Agreement may  also  be  rendered
through  such other points of interconnection as the  Parties
may later agree upon by amending the 1992 Agreement.

          1.03.  Synchronous Operation.  The Parties mutually
agree  that, except as provided in Service Schedule D hereof,
their  respective  systems will be continuously  operated  in
parallel  (except in cases of interruption of  such  parallel
operation due to mutually agreed upon maintenance or  due  to
causes  beyond  the control of either Party, or  due  to  the
necessity of an interruption of parallel operation  in  order
that  the  native  load directly served by either  Party  may
continue  to receive adequate service from such  Party).   If
synchronous  operation of the systems  through  a  particular
line   or   lines  become  interrupted  either  manually   or
automatically because of any of the above-stated reasons, the
Parties  shall  cooperate so as to remove the cause  of  such
interruption as soon as practicable and restore such line  or
lines to normal operating condition.

          1.03.1.   Inadvertent Flow.  It is recognized  that
     in  interconnected system operation, power and  reactive
     flow  will  exist on an interconnection due to scheduled
     power flow from either Party to third parties or between
     third  parties.   This inadvertent  power  flow  depends
     mainly  on  the  design of the internal systems  of  the
     Parties and the interconnected system, and the schedules
     of power flows on the interconnections.

          1.03.2.   Interruption of Operation.   If,  in  the
     sole  judgment  of either Party, the power  or  reactive
     flow over the interconnection facilities of either Party
     is  excessive  to  the extent that  it  jeopardizes  the
     reliability of either Party*s service to its  customers,
     the   Parties  shall  attempt  to  agree  upon  adequate
     corrective   measures  to  eliminate  or  control   such
     excessive  power  or  reactive flow; provided,  however,
     that in the event such a situation exists, the Party  so
     burdened shall have the right, with notice when possible
     to the other Party, to open and leave open one or all of
     the  interconnections between the respective systems  of
     the Parties until corrective action has been taken.  The
     Parties  further  agree  to  study  and  negotiate   the
     installation,  ownership, and  cost  of  any  additional
     equipment  necessary to effect a long-term  solution  to
     any  such excessive loading as herein described  in  the
     event  either Party determines that this interconnection
     contributes  to the excessive loading and requests  such
     negotiation.

          1.04.   Maintenance  of  Equipment.   Each  of  the
Parties   shall  keep,  or  shall  cause  to  be  kept,   the
transmission lines together with all associated equipment and
appurtenances that are located on their respective  sides  of
the  Interconnection Points specified in Section 1.01 hereof,
or  agreed   upon  pursuant  to Section  1.02  hereof,  in  a
suitable  condition of repair at all times, each at  its  own
expense,  in order that said transmission lines will  operate
in  a  reliable  and satisfactory manner and  in  order  that
reduction  in  the  effective capacity of  said  transmission
lines will be avoided to the extent practicable.

                         ARTICLE 2
                  SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

          2.01.   Interconnection Services Schedules.  It  is
the  purpose  of  the  Parties to seek  and  realize,  on  an
equitable  basis,  all  benefits  which  may  be  practicably
effected   through   coordination  in   the   operation   and
development of their respective systems.  It is understood by
the  Parties that such benefits may be realized  by  each  of
them  by  carrying  out  under stated  terms  and  conditions
various  interconnection services and transactions  that  may
from time to time include among others:
     (i)   The furnishing of emergency service,
     (ii)  The  interchange, sale, and purchase of  energy  to
           effect operating economies,
     (iii) The  sale and purchase of short term electric
           power  and  energy available on the system  of  one
           Party and needed on the system of the other, and
     (iv)  The  transmission of power and energy on the  basis
           of simultaneous transfers.

In furtherance of such purpose, the Parties shall create, and
continue  the  functioning  of, an  Operating  Committee,  as
provided in Article 7 hereof.

          2.02.     Specific Terms and Conditions.  Since the
specific  services  to  be rendered in  furtherance  of  such
purpose will vary during the term of the 1992 Agreement,  and
the  terms  and  conditions applicable to such  services  may
require  modification from time to time, it is intended  that
such   specific   services  and  the  terms  and   conditions
applicable  thereto  will be set forth in  Service  Schedules
mutually  agreed  upon  between the  parties.   Such  Service
Schedules,   unless   and  until  changed,   terminated,   or
supplemented,  shall  be  those  specified  in  Section  2.03
hereof.   If  a Service Schedule under the 1992 Agreement  is
changed or supplemented, such Service Schedule shall be fully
restated in order to reflect such change or supplement.

          2.03.   Service Schedules.  The respective  Service
Schedules designated

Service Schedule A - Emergency Service
Service Schedule B - Interchange Energy
Service Schedule C - Short Term Power and Energy
Service Schedule D - Carmel Southeast Tap Power & Energy Transfer

have been agreed upon between the Parties, are identified  as
Exhibits  I,  II,  III,  and IV, respectively,  to  the  1992
Agreement and are attached hereto and made a part hereof  the
same  as if incorporated herein.  It is contemplated  by  the
Parties  that  all  additional mutually agreed  upon  Service
Schedules  will  be  made a part of the 1992  Agreement  upon
presentation and acceptance thereof.

          2.04.   Out-Of-Pocket  Costs.   The  term  "Out-of-
Pocket Cost" of energy from generating units on the system of
a Party shall consist of any costs that are directly incurred
by  IPL or PSI by reason of its generation of such energy and
which  otherwise would not have been incurred by such  system
including,  but  not  limited  to,  fuel,  labor,  operation,
maintenance,  start-up,  fuel  handling,  taxes,   regulatory
commission charges, and emission allowances.

"Out-of-Pocket Cost" of energy purchased from a  third  party
by the supplying Party shall consist of the total amount paid
therefore  by the supplying Party which otherwise  would  not
have  been  paid by such Party, plus any cost which otherwise
would not have been incurred, including, but not limited  to,
regulatory    commission   charges,   emission    allowances,
transmission losses and taxes related to such transaction.

Tax  expenses will be the expenses that are incurred as taxes
either  in  connection with the sale or  production  of  such
energy.

     2.05.  Emission Allowances.  The federal Clean Air  Act,
as  amended,  42  U.S.C. Section 7401  et  seq.  (hereinafter
referred  to as "Clean Air Act"), establishes certain  annual
maximum  sulfur dioxide ("SO2") levels, stated  in  terms  of
required  emission  allowances, for  flue  gases  emitted  by
electric generating units, including units operated  by  IPL,
PSI  and  other  electric utilities who may  supply  electric
energy  for  transactions  under this  1992  Agreement.   The
generator of the electric energy supplied and delivered under
this  1992 Agreement is required by the Clean Air Act to have
adequate  "allowances" (as defined by Section 402(3)  of  the
Clean Air Act in conjunction with Section 403(f) of the Clean
Air  Act) in order to generate such electric energy.  To  the
extent  that either IPL or PSI are required by the Clean  Air
Act to have additional allowances by reason of its generation
of  electric  energy  to be supplied by it  under  this  1992
Agreement,  which allowances would otherwise  not  have  been
required  by such supplying Party, then, unless the supplying
Party  otherwise  agrees  in  advance  in  writing,  at   the
discretion  of the supplying Party, the Party receiving  such
energy  shall  be  responsible for the  cost  or  the  actual
furnishing (without cost to the supplying Party) of  adequate
allowances to the supplying Party in order for such Party  to
supply  such  energy under this Agreement. The Parties  shall
establish,  by  mutual agreement, appropriate  procedures  in
order  to  carry  out  the provisions of this  Section  2.05,
including a statement of costs before any transactions  under
the  Service  Schedules attached hereto are  started.   Also,
prior  to  implementation  of  every  transaction  under  the
Service Schedules attached hereto, the purchasing Party  must
declare  whether  they  will  pay  in  cash  or  return   SO2
Allowances  in-kind  for any consumption  of  SO2  Allowances
directly attributed to such transaction, if any.

It  shall  be  the responsibility of the supplying  Party  to
provide  the receiving Party, before the transaction  begins,
with  a statement of the estimated emission allowance charges
associated with the transaction which the supplying Party  is
seeking  to  add  to  the  rates  to  be  charged  under  the
applicable Service Schedule.  Failure of the supplying  Party
to provide a statement of such charges before the transaction
begins shall constitute a waiver of the recovery of any  such
costs.   In  establishing such procedures, the Parties  shall
recognize that the determination of the additional allowances
required  in  order  to generate the electric  energy  to  be
supplied  hereunder is subject to variables  contingent  upon
the  loading and operating conditions on the system where the
actual  generation occurs.  The procedures so established  by
the  Parties  shall  be  in  accord  with  sound  engineering
principles  of  power plant and system operation,  and  shall
require the furnishing of such additional allowances at  such
times  and  in  such  amounts as will  be  equitable  to  the
supplying Party.

When  IPL  is the supplier of energy and emission allowances,
the   recovery  of  the  applicable  costs  for  the   actual
furnishing  of  adequate  allowances  in  order  for  IPL  to
generate  and supply such energy will be implemented  in  the
following manner:
     (1)   The Buyer shall compensate IPL for the consumption
of  Sulfur  Dioxide  Emissions Allowances ("SO2  Allowances")
directly attributed to electric energy sales by IPL to  Buyer
under  the  Service Schedules.  Such compensation  shall,  at
Buyer*s  option,  be made by either supplying  IPL  with  the
number  of SO2 Allowances directly attributed to such  energy
sales, or by reimbursing IPL for the incremental cost of such
number  of  SO2 Allowances, rounded to the nearest whole  SO2
Allowance.

(1)  If   Buyer  opts  to  reimburse  IPL  in  cash  for  SO2
     Allowances associated with Buyer*s energy purchases  for
     the  month,  the  cash amount due  at  billing  will  be
     determined  by multiplying the number of SO2  Allowances
     attributed  to the sale by the incremental cost  of  the
     SO2 Allowances, as determined in Subsection 2(b) of this
     Section 2.05, at the time of the sale.

     If  Buyer opts to reimburse IPL in SO2 Allowances, Buyer
     will record or transfer to IPL*s account, the number  of
     SO2  Allowances  calculated  below,  at  the  time  cash
     settlement  for the energy is due.  In all cases,  Buyer
     will  transfer  to  IPL*s  account  the  number  of  SO2
     Allowances  due  IPL  for calendar year  no  later  than
     January  15 of the following year.  "Transfer  to  IPL*s
     account" shall mean, for purposes of the Amendment,  the
     transfer  by  the USEPA of the requisite number  of  SO2
     Allowances  to  IPL*s Allowance Tracking System  account
     and  the  receipt  by  IPL  of  the  Allowance  Transfer
     Confirmation.

(2)  Determination of SO2 Emission Allowances Due IPL

     (a)  Number of SO2 Allowances
          The number of SO2 Allowances directly attributed to
          an  energy sale made by IPL shall be determined for
          each  hour,  by  determining the contribution  from
          each  of the unit(s) from which the energy sale  is
          being  made  for  that hour.  For  each  unit,  the
          emission rate in pounds of SO2 per million Btu will
          be determined each month, from fuel sulfur content,
          control   equipment  performance,  and   continuous
          emissions monitoring data.  The emission  rate  and
          the  unit  heat rate will be used to determine  the
          SO2 Allowances used per megawatt-hour ("MWH").  The
          energy from each unit attributable to the sale, and
          the  SO2 Allowances per MWH for each unit, will  be
          used  to  determine  the number of  SO2  Allowances
          attributable to the sale.
     (b)  Cost of SO2 Allowances

          The   incremental  SO2  Allowance  cost   used   to
          determine  economic  dispatch of  IPL*s  generating
          units in any month, will also be the basis used  to
          determine compensation for IPL*s energy sales.  The
          incremental SO2 Allowances cost, in dollars per ton
          of  SO2, shall be determined each month and will be
          based on the Cantor Fitzgerald offer price for  SO2
          Allowances,  or  if  such is  not  available,  then
          another nationally recognized SO2 Allowance trading
          market   price  or  market  price  index,  at   the
          beginning  of  the month.  The SO2 Allowance  value
          may  be  changed at any time during  the  month  to
          reflect  the  more  current  incremental  cost,  or
          market  price, for SO2 Allowances.  Buyer  will  be
          notified  of the new SO2 Allowance value  prior  to
          dispatch of IPL energy to Buyer.

     When   PSI  is  the  supplier  of  energy  and  emission
     allowances, the recovery of the applicable costs for the
     actual  furnishing of adequate allowances in  order  for
     PSI   to  generate  and  supply  such  energy  will   be
     implemented in the following manner:

(1)  The  current  Environmental  Protection  Agency  ("EPA")
     auction price to value emission allowances will be  used
     for  energy  sales transactions.  The dispatch  criteria
     may  be  revised  from  time to  time  if  the  emission
     allowance purchases on the average are determined to  be
     significantly different than the EPA auction price.

(2)  For each hour in which there is a transaction for energy
     services  using  an Out-of-Pocket Cost rate  under  this
     1992 Agreement, PSI will:

     (a)  identify the generation sources used to provide the
          transaction*s energy by identifying the energy that
          would  not  have been used had the transaction  not
          been  in effect that hour by using the same  after-
          the-fact incrementing costing model that is used to
          calculate  the incremental cost of fuel under  this
          1992 Agreement;

     (b)  determine,   using  the  following   formula,   the
          quantity  of  emission allowances  related  to  the
          energy   transaction:   (i)   by   calculating   an
          incremental   heat   rate   for   the   appropriate
          generating  unit and the corresponding  incremental
          SO2  emission levels, as determined by the computer
          based tools, for the identified units dispatched to
          serve  the transaction; (ii) applying the following
          formula  for each such unit; (iii) adding  together
          the  total  number  of  tons of  SO2  produced  per
          million  BTU (i.e., British Thermal Unit)  of  fuel
          burned  by each such unit for the transaction;  and
          (iv)  letting one (1) emission allowance equal  one
          (1) ton of SO2 so produced.

# OF UNITS
E  [MBTU SALE - MBTU NO SALE] * [SO2] * [100%-SE]
             100%

MBTU SALE = Million BTU consumed on unit n with sale.
MBTU NO SALE = Million BTU consumed on unit n without sale.
SO2 = Tons of SO2 produced per million BTU of fuel burned.
SE = Scrubber Efficiency in %.

          PSI  will  perform periodic tests to  maintain  the
          accuracy   and  validity  of  such  emission   rate
          information.  Because some generating  sources  may
          not be subject to the Clean Air Act during Phase  I
          or  Phase  II thereunder, there will be no emission
          allowance  charges included for the utilization  of
          such  an  energy source while it is not subject  to
          such  requirements.   One  (1)  emission  allowance
          shall  be  assigned to each ton of SO2  emitted  to
          serve   the  transaction.  Fractions  of   emission
          allowance tons will be rounded up to the next whole
          number  when  the fraction is equal to  or  greater
          than  .5 and rounded down when the fraction is less
          than .5.

     (3)  The  purchasing  Party  of energy  shall  have  the
          option   of   purchasing  or   providing   emission
          allowances  for  each transaction.  The  purchasing
          Party  shall notify PSI of its election to purchase
          or  provide emission allowances prior to the  start
          of   the  transaction.   The  running  quantity  of
          emission  allowances charged or furnished  will  be
          shown  on  the  monthly invoices to the  purchasing
          Party.

     (4)  When  the  purchasing  Party of  energy  elects  to
          purchase the emission allowances from PSI, then the
          quantity  of  emission  allowances  used  will   be
          included  as  part of the charges  on  the  monthly
          invoices to the purchasing Party.

     (5)  By  January 15th of the year following the calendar
          year   in  which  the  transaction  occurred,   the
          purchasing  Party  of  energy  shall  transfer  the
          appropriate  emission allowances  to  PSI  for  the
          emission  allowances used when the  allowances  are
          provided in kind.
     (6)  PSI   has   adopted   the  same  incremental   cost
          calculation   to  value  emission  allowances   for
          dispatch    criteria   as   for   billing    energy
          transactions.
                         ARTICLE 3
                     SERVICE CONDITIONS

     3.01.      Control  of System Disturbance.   Each  Party
shall  maintain and operate its system so as to minimize,  in
accordance  with sound operating practice, the likelihood  of
disturbance originating in either Party*s system which  might
cause  impairment to the service of the system of  the  other
Party or of any system interconnected with the system of  the
other Party.

     3.02.     Control of Kilovar Exchange.  It is the intent
that neither Party shall be obligated to deliver kilovars for
the benefit of the other Party; also that neither Party shall
be  obligated to receive kilovars when to do so may introduce
objectionable  operating  conditions  on  its  system.    The
Operating   Committee   shall   be   responsible   for    the
establishment  of  operating  procedures  and  schedules   in
respect  of carrying kilovar loads by one Party*s system  for
the  other Party*s system in order to secure adequate service
and economical use of facilities of both Parties* systems and
in  respect  of  proper  charges, if  any,  for  the  use  of
facilities  carrying  kilovar  loads.   In  discharging  such
duties, the Operating Committee shall recognize that  in  the
transmission  and delivery of power and energy hereunder  the
carrying  of  kilovar loads by either Party, in harmony  with
sound  engineering principles of transmission operation  with
their   systems  interconnected,  is  subject   to   numerous
variables  contingent  upon loading and operating  conditions
existing simultaneously on the systems of both Parties.   The
operating  procedures  and schedules so  established  by  the
Operating  Committee shall be in accord with such  principles
and  shall require each Party to carry kilovar loads at  such
times  and  in  such  amounts as will be  equitable  to  both
Parties.

     3.03.     Control of Unscheduled Power Deliveries.   The
Parties  shall  exercise  due  diligence  and  foresight   in
carrying  out  all  matters  related  to  the  providing  and
operating of their respective electric power resources so  as
to  minimize  to  the  extent practicable deviations  between
actual  and scheduled deliveries of electric power and energy
between their systems.  The Parties shall provide and install
on   their   respective   systems  such   communication   and
telemetering facilities as are essential to so minimize  such
deviations   and,  in  developing  and  executing   operating
procedures  that  will enable the Parties  to  avoid  to  the
extent practicable deviation from scheduled deliveries, shall
fully  cooperate with each other and with third parties whose
systems are either directly or indirectly interconnected with
the  systems  of  the Parties and who of necessity,  together
with  the Parties, must unify their efforts cooperatively  to
achieve  effective  and  efficient interconnected  operation.
The  Parties  recognize, however, that,  despite  their  best
efforts  to  prevent  the  same,  unscheduled  deliveries  of
electric  energy from one Party to the other may  occur.   In
such  event,  electric energy delivered  hereunder  shall  be
settled  for by the return of equivalent energy.   Equivalent
energy shall be returned at times when the load conditions of
the  Party receiving it are equivalent to the load conditions
of such Party at the time the energy for which it is returned
was  delivered  or, if such Party elects to  have  equivalent
energy  returned  under  different conditions,  it  shall  be
returned  in such amounts, to be agreed upon by the Operating
Committee,   as   will  compensate  for  the  difference   in
conditions.

                         ARTICLE 4
              DELIVERY POINTS, MEETING POINTS,
                        AND METERING

     4.01.       Delivery   Points.   All   electric   energy
delivered  under the 1992 Agreement shall be of the character
commonly  known as three-phase sixty Hertz energy, and  shall
be  delivered  at the Interconnection Points specified  under
Section 1.01 hereof, at a nominal voltage of 138,000 volts at
the  Five Points and Centerton Interconnection Points, at the
138KV Petersburg Interconnection Point, and at the Carmel Tap
Point;  and  at  a nominal voltage of 345,000  volts  at  the
Whitestown and Gwynneville Interconnection Points, and at the
345KV  Petersburg Interconnection Point; and  at  such  other
points  and voltages as hereafter may be agreed upon  by  the
parties pursuant to Section 1.02 hereof.

     4.02.      Billing  Based on Scheduled Transaction.   As
IPL  and  PSI  systems are interconnected with other  systems
forming  a  network, it is recognized that,  because  of  the
physical  and  electrical characteristics of  the  facilities
involved, a part or all of the energy being transferred  from
one  Party  to the other may flow through such other  systems
rather than through the point or points of connection between
the systems of the Parties.  A part or all of the power being
transferred  between other systems in the  network  may  flow
through the point or points of connection between the systems
of the Parties, and as a result be included in the demand and
energy   meter   readings  at  the   point   or   points   of
interconnection.  Therefore, all billings shall be  based  on
scheduled  transactions  or upon methods  determined  by  the
Operating  Committee  which may result  from  development  of
arrangements  with  other interconnected  systems  and  which
provide  a  basis  for accounting for the  power  and  energy
transfers actually contracted for between the Parties.
     4.03.      Metering Points.  Electric power  and  energy
supplied  and  delivered under the 1992  Agreement  shall  be
measured  by  suitable  metering  equipment  which  shall  be
provided,  owned and maintained by PSI or ILP  as  designated
below at the following metering points:

     (i)  138,000 volt metering equipment installed by PSI at
          the  Five  Points Substation; 138,000 volt metering
          equipment   installed  by  PSI  at  the   Centerton
          Substation;  138,000  and  345,000  volt   metering
          equipment   installed  by  IPL  at  the  Petersburg
          Station;  345,000 volt metering equipment installed
          by  IPL  at its Sunnyside Substation and  at  PSI*s
          Gwynneville and Whitestown Substations; and 12.47kV
          metering  equipment installed by PSI at its  Carmel
          Southeast Substation, and

     (ii) At  such other locations as hereafter may be agreed
          upon  by  the  Parties  pursuant  to  Section  1.02
          hereof.

     4.04.       Metering   Equipment.    Suitable   metering
equipment at the metering points as described in Section 4.03
above  shall  include electric meters, potential and  current
transformers,  and  such  other  appurtenances  as  shall  be
necessary  to  give for each direction of flow the  following
quantities:   (i)  an automatic record of the  kilowatt-hours
for each clock-hour, and (ii) a continuous integration record
of the kilowatt-hours.

     4.05.      Measurement of Electric Energy.  Measurements
of  electric  energy for the purpose of effecting settlements
under  the 1992 Agreement shall be made by standard types  of
electric  meters  installed and maintained (unless  otherwise
provided  for in the Agreement) by the owner at the  metering
points  described in Section 4.03 above.  The timing  devices
of all meters having such devices shall be maintained in time
synchronism as closely as practicable.

     The meters shall be sealed and the seals shall be broken
only  upon  occasions when the meters are  to  be  tested  or
adjusted.   for  the purpose of checking the records  of  the
metering  equipment  installed  by  one  of  the  Parties  as
hereinabove provided, the other Party shall have the right to
install  check  metering equipment at the aforesaid  metering
points.  Metering equipment so installed by one Party on  the
premises of the other Party, unless otherwise provided for in
the  1992  Agreement, shall be owned and  maintained  by  the
Party  installing  such equipment.  Upon termination  of  the
1992  Agreement,  the  Party owning such  metering  equipment
shall  remove  it  from  the premises  of  the  other  Party.
Authorized representatives of both Parties shall have  access
at  all reasonable hours to the premises where the meters are
located and to the records made by the meters.

     4.06.     Testing and Access to Meters and Records.  The
aforesaid metering equipment shall be tested by the owner  at
suitable   intervals   and  its  accuracy   of   registration
maintained  in accordance with good practice.  On request  of
either  Party, a special test may be made at the  expense  of
the  Party requesting such special test.  Representatives  of
both  Parties shall be afforded the opportunity to be present
at  all routine or special tests and upon occasions when  any
readings,  for purposes of settlements hereunder,  are  taken
from meters not bearing an automatic record.

     4.07.      Adjustments Due to Inaccuracies.  If  at  any
test  of  metering equipment an inaccuracy shall be disclosed
exceeding  two percent, the account between the  Parties  for
service  theretofore delivered shall be adjusted  to  correct
for   the  inaccuracy  disclosed  over  the  shorter  of  the
following  two periods:  (i) for the thirty (30)  day  period
immediately  preceding the day of the test, or (ii)  for  the
period  that  such  inaccuracy  may  be  determined  to  have
existed.  Should the metering equipment described in  Section
4.04  above at any time fail to register, the electric  power
and  energy  delivered  shall be determined  from  the  check
meters,  if installed, or otherwise shall be determined  from
the best available data.

                         ARTICLE 5
                   RECORDS AND STATEMENTS

     5.01.      Records.   In  addition  to  records  of  the
metering provided for in Article 4 hereof, the Parties  shall
keep  in  duplicate such other records as may  be  needed  to
afford  a clear history of the various deliveries of electric
energy  made by one Party to the other and of the  clock-hour
integrated demands in kilowatt-hours delivered by  one  Party
to the other.  In maintaining such records, the Parties shall
effect  such  segregations  and allocations  of  demands  and
electric  energy  delivered  into  classes  representing  the
various   services  and  conditions  as  may  be  needed   in
connection  with settlements under the 1992  Agreement.   The
originals of all such records shall be retained by the  Party
keeping  the  records and the duplicates shall  be  delivered
monthly to the other Party, except that the Parties may agree
upon a different time interval for such delivery.

     5.02.      Statements.  As promptly as practicable after
the  end of each calendar month, the Parties shall prepare  a
statement  setting  forth  the  electric  power  and   energy
transactions  between the Parties during such month  in  such
detail  and  with  such segregations as  may  be  needed  for
operating records or for settlements under the provisions  of
the 1992 Agreement.
                         ARTICLE 6
                   BILLINGS AND PAYMENTS

     6.01.      Billing Period. Unless otherwise agreed  upon
by  the  Parties,  the calendar month shall be  the  standard
billing period for all settlements under the 1992 Agreement.

     6.02.      Billing Scheduled Transactions.  All  billing
shall  be  based  on scheduled transactions unless  otherwise
determined as provided in Section 4.02 hereof.

     6.03.     Billing Payments.  All bills for amounts  owed
by  one  Party to the other Party shall be due on  the  first
business day following the twentieth (20th) day after the end
of  the calendar month or period service was rendered, or  on
the  fifteenth  (15th) business day following  receipt  of  a
bill,  whichever  is  later.   Payments  shall  be  made   by
electronic  transfer  or  by such  other  mutually  agreeable
method  as shall cause such payment to be available  for  the
account of the payee on or before the due date.  Interest  on
unpaid  amounts,  both principal and interest,  shall  accrue
daily  at  the then current prime interest rate per annum  of
The  Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A., New York, New York, plus two
percent (2%) per annum, or the maximum rate permitted by law,
whichever  is  less, from the date due until  the  date  upon
which payment is made.

     6.04.      Estimated  Billing Factors.   In  order  that
bills  may  be rendered promptly after the end  of  the  each
month,  it  may be necessary, from time to time, to  estimate
certain  factors involved in calculating the monthly billing.
Adjustments for errors in such estimates shall be included in
the  bill  for the month following the time when  information
becomes available to make such corrections or adjustments  in
the billing for the preceding month or months.

     6.05.      Billing  Disputes.  If a Party  disputes  the
correctness of a bill, such Party will, nevertheless, pay the
undisputed  portion of such bill, plus a minimum of  one-half
(1/2)  of the disputed amount, and shall submit to the  other
Party  a written statement detailing the items disputed.   If
the Parties are unable to agree upon the disputed items, such
items  shall  be  submitted to the  Operating  Committee  for
further action consistent with the 1992 Agreement.
                         ARTICLE 7
                    OPERATING COMMITTEE

     7.01.      Operating Committee Organization and  Duties.
To  coordinate the operation of their respective  generation,
transmission,  and substation facilities in  order  that  the
benefits of the 1992 Agreement may be realized by the Parties
to   the  fullest  practicable  extent,  the  Parties   shall
establish  a  committee of authorized representatives  to  be
known  as the Operating Committee.  Each of the Parties shall
designate in writing delivered to the other Party, the person
who  is  to  act  as its authorized representative  (the  "OC
Representative") on said committee (and the person or persons
who may serve as Alternate whenever the OC Representative  is
unable  to  act).   The OC Representative  and  Alternate  or
Alternates   shall   each  be  persons  familiar   with   the
generation, transmission, and substation facilitates  of  the
system  of the Party he represents, and each shall  be  fully
authorized  (i) to cooperate with the other OC Representative
(or  Alternates) and (ii) as the need arises and  subject  to
the  declared intentions of the Parties as herein  set  forth
and to the terms hereof and the terms of any other agreements
then  in  effect between the Parties, to determine and  agree
from time to time upon the following:

     (i)  All  matters  pertaining  to  the  coordination  of
          maintenance  of  the  generation  and  transmission
          facilities of the Parties.

     (ii) All  matters  pertaining to the  control  of  time,
          frequency,  energy  flow, kilovar  exchange,  power
          factor,  voltage, and other similar matters bearing
          upon the satisfactory synchronous operation of  the
          systems of the Parties.

     (iii)      Such  other matters not specifically provided
          for herein upon which cooperation, coordination and
          agreement  as to quantity, time, method, terms  and
          conditions  are  necessary,  in  order   that   the
          operation of the respective systems of the  Parties
          may  be  coordinated to the end that the  potential
          benefits  anticipated  by  the  Parties   will   be
          realized to the fullest extent practicable.

     7.02.      Operating Committee Access.  For the  purpose
of inspection and reading of meters, checking of records, and
all  other pertinent matters, the OC Representative and their
Alternates  shall have the right of entry at  any  reasonable
time  to all property of the Parties used in connection  with
the performance of the 1992 Agreement.

     7.03.      Unanimous Action.  All actions taken by  said
Operating  Committee must be by unanimous vote or consent  of
all OC Representatives (including Alternates acting during OC
Representatives* absence).

     7.04.      Expenses.  The expenses for establishing  and
maintaining   the   Operating   Committee   shall   be    the
responsibility  of each individual Party as  regards  to  its
respective personnel.  Any expenses jointly incurred by  said
Operating  Committee in carrying out its duties,  other  than
for  the Parties* personnel, shall be shared equally  by  the
Parties.

     7.05.       Authority  to  Amend  or  Supplement.    The
Operating  Committee  may  recommend  changes  to  the   1992
Agreement,  but  said  Operating  Committee  shall  not  have
authority to amend or supplement the 1992 Agreement.

                         ARTICLE 8
            CONTINUITY AND SUSPENSION OF SERVICE
               RELATIVE RESPONSIBILITIES AND
                      LIABILITY LIMITS

     8.01.      Continuity and Suspension of  Service.   Each
Party  shall  exercise  reasonable  care  and  foresight   to
maintain  continuity  of  service as  provided  in  the  1992
Agreement.   In  no event shall one Party be  liable  to  the
other Party or its customers for loss or damage arising  from
failure  to provide or for the interruption or suspension  of
any  service  provided for herein.  Each Party  reserves  the
right to suspend service without liability at such times  and
for  such  periods and in such manner as it deems  advisable,
including, without limitation, suspensions for the purpose of
making  necessary adjustments to, changes in, or repairs  on,
its  facilities and to suspend service in cases where, in its
sole  opinion, the continuance of service to the other  Party
would  endanger persons or property.  Both Parties shall  use
their  best  efforts  to provide each other  with  reasonable
notice in the event of suspension of service.

     8.02.     Relative Responsibilities.  Each Party assumes
all responsibility for receipt and delivery of electricity on
its   system  to  and  from  the  Points  of  Interconnection
specified  in Section 1.01 hereof or agreed upon pursuant  to
Section    1.02   hereof.    Neither   Party   assumes    any
responsibility    with   respect   to    the    construction,
installation, maintenance or operation of the system  of  the
other  Party or of the systems of third parties, in whole  or
in  part.  In no event shall one Party be liable to the other
Party  for  damage  or  injury to  any  person  or  property,
whatsoever,  arising,  accruing or  resulting  from,  in  any
manner,   the   receiving,   transmission,   control,    use,
application  or  distribution  of  said  electric  power  and
energy.   Each  Party  shall  use  reasonable  diligence   to
maintain  its facilities in proper and serviceable condition,
and   shall   take  reasonable  steps  and  precautions   for
maintaining  the services agreed to be provided and  received
under  the  1992 Agreement.  Each Party shall be  responsible
for  its  own  compliance  with all applicable  environmental
regulations and shall bear all costs arising from its failure
to comply with such environmental regulations.

     8.03.      Limitation of Liability.  In no  event  shall
one  Party  be  liable to the other Party for  any  indirect,
special, incidental or consequential damages with respect  to
any claim arising out of the 1992 Agreement.

                         ARTICLE 9
                     TERM OF AGREEMENT

     9.01.      The  term of the 1992 Agreement  and  of  the
annexed  Service Schedules shall begin as of May 1, 1992  and
(except for Service Schedule D) shall continue through  April
30,  2022 (the "Initial Term"); thereafter, the Agreement and
Service  Schedules (except Service Schedule D) shall continue
for successive terms of three (3) years each unless and until
terminated  by  either Party by giving notice  to  the  other
Party  of  its  intention to terminate the 1992 Agreement  at
least  two (2) years prior to the end of the Initial Term  or
any  successive term; provided, that the 1992 Agreement shall
not  be deemed to have terminated until all prior commitments
for  sales  or purchases of power and energy hereunder  shall
have  been  fulfilled and all payments shall have been  made.
The  term of Service Schedule D shall be as provided therein.
Any  notice  of termination hereunder shall be given  to  the
President or Chief Operations Officer of a Party with a  copy
to the OC Representative of such Party.

                         ARTICLE 10
                          WAIVERS

     10.01.     Any  waiver at any time by  either  party  of
their  rights  with  respect to  a  default  under  the  1992
Agreement,  or  with respect to any other matter  arising  in
connection  with  the 1992 Agreement shall not  be  deemed  a
waiver with respect to any subsequent default or matter.  Any
delay,  short  of  the  statutory period  of  limitation,  in
asserting  or  enforcing any right under the  1992  Agreement
shall not be deemed a waiver of such right.

                         ARTICLE 11
                           TAXES

     11.01.     If  at any time during the term hereof  there
should  be levied or assessed against either Party any direct

both)  generated, purchased, sold, transmitted,  interchanged
or  exchanged by it, which tax is in addition to or different
from  the  forms  of such direct tax as are being  levied  or
assessed as of the date hereof and such direct tax results in
increasing the cost of either or both the Parties in carrying
out  the provisions of the 1992 Agreement, then such increase
shall be reflected in the charges for capacity or energy  (or
both)  furnished  by one Party to the other hereunder  as  is
necessary  in order to make adequate and equitable allowances
for such tax.

                         ARTICLE 12

                     SERVICE SCHEDULE A

                     EMERGENCY SERVICE


SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1   This Service Schedule A, being a part of and under  the
Interconnection Agreement (referred to herein  as  the  "1992
Agreement"),  dated  as  of May 1, 1992,  among  Indianapolis
Power  &  Light  Company (hereinafter called "IPL")  and  PSI
Energy,  Inc.,  formerly  named  Public  Service  Company  of
Indiana,   Inc.  (hereinafter  called  "PSI")   and   CINergy
Services, Inc. (hereinafter called "CINergy Services"), shall
become  effective  as  of the effective  date  of  the  Third
Amendment,  dated  June 30, 1995, to the 1992  Agreement  and
shall continue in effect throughout the duration of the  1992
Agreement.   IPL,  PSI  and CINergy  Services  are  sometimes
hereinafter   referred   to  individually   as   "Party"   or
collectively as "Parties" where appropriate.


SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

2.1   Conditional  Service.  Subject  to  the  provisions  of
Subsection 2.2 of this Section 2, in the event of a breakdown
or other emergency in or on the system of any Party involving
either sources of power or transmission facilities, or  both,
impairing  or jeopardizing the ability of the Party suffering
the  emergency to meet the loads of its system, another Party
shall  deliver  to  such Party electric  energy  that  it  is
requested  to deliver; provided, however, that a Party  shall
not  be  obligated to deliver such energy which, in its  sole
judgment,  it cannot deliver without interposing a hazard  to
or  economic burden upon its operations or without  impairing
or jeopardizing the other load requirements of its system and
provided further, that a Party shall be obligated to  deliver
electric  energy to another Party for a period in  excess  of
forty-eight   (48)  consecutive  hours  during   any   single
emergency.

2.2    Non-performance.   The  Parties  recognize  that   the
delivery of electric energy as provided in Subsection 2.1  of
this  Section  2  is  subject to  two  conditions  which  may
preclude the delivery of such energy as so provided:  (a) the
Party  requested to deliver electric energy may be  suffering
an  emergency  in or on its own system as described  in  said
Subsection  2.1,  or  (b)  the  system  of  a  Party  may  be
delivering   electric  energy,  under  a   mutual   emergency
interchange   agreement,   to   the   system    of    another
interconnected company which is suffering any emergency in or
on its system.  Under conditions as cited under (a) above,  a
Party  shall not be considered to be in default hereunder  if
it is unable to comply with the provisions of said Subsection
2.1.   Under  conditions as cited under (b)  above,  a  Party
shall  not be considered to be in default hereunder if it  is
unable to comply with the provisions of said Subsection  2.1;
provided,  however, that such Party shall make  every  effort
consistent  with  the terms of its contract with  said  other
interconnected  company  to  make  the  electric  energy   as
provided in Subsection 2.1 available to another Party  hereto
as soon as possible.
2.3   Reserve Generating Capacity Review.  If at any time the
record over a reasonable prior period shows clearly that  one
of  the  Parties has failed to deliver energy  in  accordance
with  and  subject  to the provisions of Subsection  2.1  and
Subsection 2.2 of this Section 2, a Party, by written  notice
given  to  another Party, may call for a joint study  by  the
Parties  of  the reserve generating capacity in and  provided
for  their respective systems and of their respective  system
transmission facilities affecting the supply and delivery  of
power  and energy under the 1992 Agreement.  It shall be  the
purpose of such study to determine the adequacy or inadequacy
of  reserve  generating capacity and transmission  facilities
being  provided  to  meet  the requirements  of  the  Parties
respective  systems, reflecting obligations  under  the  1992
Agreement, and, if inadequate, the extent of the burden  that
a  Party may be placing upon another Party.  If it should  be
found  that  a Party is placing an unreasonable  burden  upon
another Party, the Party causing such burden shall take  such
measures  as are necessary to remove the burden from  another
Party,  or the Parties shall enter into such arrangements  as
shall  provide for equitable compensation to the Party  being
burdened.


SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

3.1  When IPL is the Supplying Party:

     3.11   Emergency Energy delivered that is  generated  by
IPL shall be settled for, at the option of IPL, either by the
return  of  equivalent energy at a mutually  acceptable  time
upon  request of IPL or by payment of the greater of (a) 110%
of the Out-Of-Pocket Cost (such cost being as of the delivery
point  or points, as referred to in Section 4.01 of the  1992
Agreement,  taking  into account electrical  losses  incurred
from  the  source or sources of such energy to  the  delivery
point  or points) of supplying such energy, or (b) $0.10  per
kilowatt-hour.

     3.12   Emergency Energy delivered that is  purchased  by

by  IPL,  plus an amount to be agreed upon by the Parties  at
the time of the transactions of up to 4.6 mills per kilowatt-
hour  (consisting  of up to 3.6 mills per  kilowatt-hour  for
bulk  transmission  charge plus 1 mill per kilowatt-hour  for
difficult  to  quantify  energy-related  costs),   plus   any
transmission losses resulting on IPL's system on  account  of
the  transaction,  and  plus any taxes  incurred  by  IPL  on
account of the transaction.

3.2  When PSI is the Supplying Party:

     3.21   Emergency Energy delivered that is  generated  by
     PSI  shall  be settled for by payment of the greater  of
     (a)  110% of the Out-Of-Pocket Cost (such cost being  as
     of  the interconnection point or points, as referred  to
     in  Section  4.01  or  the 1992 Agreement,  taking  into
     account  electrical losses incurred from the  source  or
     sources  of such energy to the interconnection point  or

     megawatt-hour  (for difficult to quantify energy-related
     costs),  plus any transmission losses resulting  on  the
     system of the CINergy Operating Companies on account  of
     the  transaction.  Non-firm transmission service per the
     provisions of the CINergy Services, Inc., FERC  Electric
     Tariff,  Original Volume No. 3, Non-Firm  Point-to-Point
     Transmission  Service  Standard Tariff  -  NFT  (or  any
     successor  transmission tariff of similar service)  must
     be  obtained, and plus any regulatory commission charges
     and taxes incurred by PSI on account of the transaction,
     or (b) $100 per megawatt-hour.

3.3   If  the  option  of  returning  electric  energy  under
Subsection  3.11 is exercised, then it shall be  returned  at
times when the load conditions of the Party receiving it  are
equivalent to the load conditions of such Party at  the  time
the energy for which it is returned was delivered or, if such
Party   elects  to  have  equivalent  energy  returned  under
different  conditions, it shall be returned in such  amounts,
to  be  agreed  upon  by the Operating  Committee  under  the
Agreement, as will compensate the Party for the difference in
conditions.

               EXHIBIT II
               (First Revision)

                     SERVICE SCHEDULE B

                     INTERCHANGE ENERGY


SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1   This Service Schedule B, being a part of and under  the
Interconnection Agreement (referred to herein  as  the  "1992
Agreement"),  dated  as  of May 1, 1992,  among  Indianapolis
Power  &  Light  Company (hereinafter called "IPL")  and  PSI
Energy,  Inc.,  formerly  named  Public  Service  Company  of
Indiana,   Inc.  (hereinafter  called  "PSI")   and   CINergy
Services, Inc. (hereinafter called "CINergy Services"), shall
become  effective  as  of the effective  date  of  the  Third
Amendment,  dated  June 30, 1995 to the  1992  Agreement  and
shall continue in effect throughout the duration of the  1992
Agreement.   IPL,  PSI  and CINergy  Services  are  sometimes
hereinafter   referred   to  individually   as   "Party"   or
collectively as "Parties" where appropriate.


SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

     Economy Energy

2.1   It is recognized that from time to time that any of the
Parties  may  have  electric energy (herein  called  "Economy
Energy")  available from surplus capacity either on  its  own
system  or from sources outside its own system, or both,  and
that  Economy Energy could be supplied to another Party at  a
cost  that would result in operating savings to such  another
Party.    Such  operating  savings  would  result  from   the
displacement  of  electric energy  that  otherwise  would  be
supplied from capacity either on such other Party's system or
from sources outside its own system, or both. To promote  the
economy  of  electric power supply and to  achieve  efficient
utilization of production capacity, any Party, whenever it in
its  sole  judgment determines Economy Energy  is  available,
may,  but shall not be obligated to, offer Economy Energy  to
another Party.  Promptly upon receipt of any such offer  said
Party  shall notify the offering Party of the extent to which
it   desires  to  use  such  Economy  Energy,  and  schedules
providing  the  periods and extent of use shall  be  mutually
agreed upon by the Parties.  Such energy is non-firm and  may
be  withdrawn by the supplying Party with a ten  (10)  minute
notification.  A transaction made by PSI and CINergy Services
under  this Service Schedule B shall not extend beyond twelve
(12) months.

     Non-Displacement Energy

2.2   It  is  further  recognized  that  from  time  to  time
occasions  will arise when the effecting of transactions,  as
provided  in  Subsection  2.1 of  this  Section  2,  will  be
impracticable,  but at the same time one of the  Parties  may
have   electric   energy  (herein  called   "Non-Displacement
Energy")  which it is willing to make available from  surplus
capacity either on its own system or from sources outside its
own  system, or both, that can be utilized advantageously for
short   intervals  by  another  Party.   It  shall   be   the
responsibility  of  the Party desiring the  receipt  of  Non-
Displacement Energy to initiate the receipt and  delivery  of
such energy.  Any Party desiring such receipt of energy shall
inform another Party of the extent to which it desires to use
Non-Displacement  Energy, and whenever in its  sole  judgment
such  another  Party determines that it has  Non-Displacement
Energy  available, schedules providing the periods and extent
of  use  shall  be mutually agreed upon by the Parties.   Any
Party  shall  not  be obligated to make any  Non-Displacement
Energy available to another Party.

2.3   PSI may reduce or discontinue the supply of Hourly Non-
Displacement  Energy  at any time.  To the  extent  possible,
however,  PSI  shall  advise IPL of its intention  to  reduce
materially   or  discontinue  the  supply  of   Hourly   Non-
Displacement Energy.

2.4   PSI  shall  supply  Daily and  Weekly  Non-Displacement
Energy  for three (3) hours after they have notified  IPL  of
its  intention to discontinue such supply of energy; however,
PSI  shall  be under no obligation to continue the supply  of
said  energy  for  more  than  three  (3)  hours  after  said
notification.

2.5   A  transaction made by PSI under Subsection  2.2  above
shall not extend beyond twelve (12) months.


SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

     Economy Energy

3.1   The charge for Economy Energy purchased by a Party from
another Party shall be based on the principle that the  Party
purchasing it shall pay the Out-Of-Pocket Cost (including all
operating,  maintenance, tax, regulatory commission  charges,
transmission  losses and other expenses incurred  that  would
not  have  been incurred if the energy had not been supplied)
being at the interconnection points (as defined in Article  4
of  the  1992 Agreement), of the Party supplying such  energy
and  that the resulting savings to the receiving Party  shall
be  equally  shared  by the supplying and receiving  Parties.
Prior  to any transaction involving the delivery and  receipt
of  Economy Energy, authorized representatives of the Parties
shall determine and agree upon the compensation applicable to
such  transaction.  Compensation so agreed upon shall not  be
subject to later review or adjustment.  PSI shall dedicate an
amount   at  the  time  of  the  transactions  for   non-firm
transmission  service  per  the  provisions  of  the  CINergy
Services, Inc., FERC Electric Tariff, Original Volume No.  3,
Non-Firm Point-to-Point Transmission Service Standard  Tariff
- -  NFT  (or  any  successor transmission  tariff  of  similar
service) from its portion of the resulting savings.

3.2   When  Economy Energy is obtained from or  delivered  to
other  systems  interconnected  with  the  Parties,  but  not
signatories to the 1992 Agreement, payments shall be based on
the  Out-Of-Pocket  Cost  of the supplying  Party  or  system
providing  the energy and an allocation of the gross  savings
which are defined as the difference between (1) what such Out-
Of-Pocket  Costs of the receiving Party or system would  have
been  to  generate  such energy, and (2)  such  Out-Of-Pocket
Costs  of the supplying Party or system providing the energy.
Such allocation shall be made as provided in Subsections 3.21
and 3.22 hereinbelow:

     3.21 The  transmitting Party shall be paid (a) its costs
          of  purchasing the energy supplied,  plus  (b)  its
          costs  of  additional transmission losses plus  (c)
          the following:

          (1)  When  IPL is such transmitting Party:  Fifteen
               percent  (15%) of the gross savings  remaining
               after   deducting   all  such   payments   for
               transmission losses.

          (2)  When PSI is the transmitting Party, they shall
               receive  the  greater of (a) 15% (such  charge
               pertains  to  the reservation of transmission)
               of the gross savings remaining after deducting
               all  such payments for transmission losses  or
               (b)  the  sum  of  a demand  charge  rate  per
               megawatt  reserved per hour at the  time  such
               Economy   Energy  is  reserved  for   non-firm
               transmission service per the provisions of the
               CINergy  Services, Inc., FERC Electric Tariff,
               Original Volume No. 3, Non-Firm Point-to-Point
               Transmission Service Standard Tariff - NFT (or
               any  successor transmission tariff of  similar
               service),  plus  $1.00 per megawatt-hour  (for
               difficult  to quantify energy-related  costs),
               plus any transmission losses resulting on  the
               system  of the CINergy Operating Companies  on
               account  of  the  transaction  and  plus   any
               regulatory   commission  charges   and   taxes
               incurred by PSI on account of the transaction.

     3.22 The supplying Party or system shall be paid its Out-
          Of-Pocket  Cost of providing the energy, plus  one-
          half of the gross savings remaining after deducting
          all  (b)  and  (c)  payments made under  Subsection
          3.21.   The  receiving Party  or  system  shall  be
          entitled to the other one-half of the gross savings
          remaining after deducting all (b) and (c)  payments
          made under Subsection 3.21.

     Non-Displacement Energy

3.3   Non-Displacement Energy delivered  hereunder  shall  be
settled  for either by the return of equivalent energy  (only
in  the  case where IPL is the supplying Party)  or,  at  the
option of the Party that supplied such energy, by payment  of
an  energy  charge  of up to 110% of the  Out-Of-Pocket  Cost
(such  cost  being  as of the delivery point  or  points,  as
provided  in Section 4.01 of Article 4 of the 1992 Agreement,
taking  into  account  electrical losses  incurred  from  the
source  or sources of such energy to said delivery  point  or
points)  to  the supplying Party generating such energy  plus
(the  applicable demand charge rates per this Subsection  are
limited by Subsections 3.7 and 3.8):
     3.31 When IPL is the supplying Party:

          3.31.1   IPL,  at its option, may impose  a  demand
          charge  of  up to 48.6 mills per kilowatt  reserved
          per  hour, but the total demand charge in  any  one
          day  shall  be no more than the product  of  $0.778
          times  the highest amount in kilowatts reserved  in
          any hour during the day.  Or,

          3.31.2   IPL, at its option, may choose  to  supply
          such  energy  without imposing a demand  charge  in
          which  case  no  additional  payment  is  included.
          However, if this option is chosen, the cost of such
          energy will be calculated as 110% of the actual Out-
          Of-Pocket Cost (such cost being as of the  delivery
          point  or  points, as provided in Section  4.01  of
          Article  4  of  the  1992  Agreement,  taking  into
          account electrical losses incurred from the  source
          or sources of such energy to said delivery point or
          points)  to  the  supplying Party  generating  such
          energy.

     3.32  When PSI is the supplying Party by payment of  the
following:

     (1)  For energy generated, the agreed upon demand charge
          rate  of  up to $50 per megawatt-hour (such  charge
          pertains  to  the production component  only),  the
          total demand charge in any one day shall be no more
          than the product of $797 and the greatest amount of
          megawatts reserved in any hour during said day  and
          the  total charge in any one week shall be no  more
          than  the product of $4,781 and the greatest number
          of megawatts reserved in any hour during said week.
          Non-firm transmission service per the provisions of
          the  CINergy Services, Inc., FERC Electric  Tariff,
          Original  Volume  No.  3,  Non-Firm  Point-to-Point
          Transmission Service Standard Tariff - NFT (or  any
          successor  transmission tariff of similar  service)
          must be obtained;

     (2)  For  daily energy which is purchased by PSI from  a
          third  party  for economic reasons to  meet  system
          needs but in subsequent system resources accounting
          calculations  is determined to have  been  used  to
          supply  a Daily Non-Displacement Energy transaction
          and  for which PSI stands by to supply from its own
          resources:  (a) the amount paid by PSI to the third
          party  for  such  energy,  plus  (b)  the  cost  of
          transmission losses, regulatory commission  charges
          and  taxes incurred which would not otherwise  have
          been incurred, plus (c) $1.00 per megawatt-hour for
          difficult-to-quantify energy  related  costs,  and,
          plus  (d) up to $50 per megawatt-hour (such  charge
          pertains  to  the production component  only),  the
          total  charge in any one day shall be no more  than
          the  product  of  $797 and the greatest  number  of
          megawatts reserved in any hour during said day  and
          the  total charge in any one week shall be no  more
          than  the product of $4,781 and the greatest number
          of megawatts reserved in any hour during said week.
          Non-firm transmission service per the provisions of

          successor  transmission tariff of similar  service)
          must be obtained.

     3.33 If  equivalent energy is returned to IPL, it  shall
          be  returned  at times when the load conditions  of
          the  Party receiving it are equivalent to the  load
          conditions of such Party at the time the energy for
          which  it  is  returned was delivered or,  if  such
          Party  elects  to  have equivalent energy  returned
          under different conditions, it shall be returned in
          such  amounts,  to be agreed upon by the  Operating
          Committee, as will compensate for the difference in
          conditions.

3.4   Non-Displacement Energy delivered under Subsection  2.2
above  that is purchased by the supplying Party from  another
interconnected system which is not a signatory  to  the  1992
Agreement  ("Third Party") at the request  of  the  receiving
Party shall be settled for as follows:

3.41 When  IPL  is the supplying Party, by a payment  of  100
     percent of the amount paid to such Third Party,  plus  a
     demand  charge  in an amount to be agreed  upon  by  the
     Parties  at  the time of the reservation of  up  to  3.6
     mills  per  kilowatt reserved per hour,  but  the  total
     demand  charge in any one day shall be no more than  the
     product  of $0.058 times the highest amount in kilowatts
     reserved  in any hour during the day, plus  1  mill  per
     kilowatt-hour  (for difficult to quantify energy-related
     costs),  plus  the cost of any quantifiable transmission
     losses,  taxes, and other expenses incurred  that  would
     not  have been incurred if such transaction had not been
     made.

3.42 When  PSI  is  the  supplying Party:   by  (a)  non-firm
     transmission service per the provisions of  the  CINergy
     Services,  Inc.,  FERC Electric Tariff, Original  Volume
     No.  3,  Non-Firm  Point-to-Point  Transmission  Service
     Standard  Tariff  -  NFT (or any successor  transmission
     tariff  of similar service) must be obtained and (b)  an
     energy  charge  of 100% of the Out-of-Pocket  Cost  paid
     therefor  by  PSI,  plus  $1.00 per  megawatt-hour  (for

     CINergy   Operating   Companies  on   account   of   the
     transaction, and plus any regulatory commission  charges
     and taxes incurred by PSI on account of the transaction.

3.5   Notwithstanding  the  rates stated  in  Subsection  3.3
above,  when  IPL  is  the supplying Party,  if  the  "demand
charge"  option of Section 3.31.1 is chosen, the sum  of  the
demand and energy charges for each specific reservation  made
pursuant  to  Section 2.2 of this Service  Schedule  B  which
includes a demand charge shall not:
     (1)  exceed the total of:

          (i)  The   product  of  the  number  of   kilowatts

determined based on Zimmer Unit No. 1 and Gibson Unit No.  5,
is  limited  to 925 MWs (CINergy Operating Companies*  Zimmer
Unit  No. 1 Net Demonstrated Capability of 612 MWs and Gibson
Unit  No.  5  Net Demonstrated Capability of 313 MWs)  on  an
hourly basis.  For sales in excess of the capacity limitation
of  925  MWs noted above, the rate shall consist of an energy
charge  of  up  to 110% of Out-of-Pocket Cost  and  a  demand
charge  of  up  to  $ 13 per megawatt per hour  (such  charge
pertains to the production component only), the total  charge
in  any one day shall be no more than the product of $209 and
the  greatest number of megawatts reserved in any hour during
said  day  and the total charge in any one week shall  be  no
more  than  the product of $1,252 and the greatest number  of
megawatts  reserved in any hour during said  week.   Non-firm

service)  must be obtained; but in no event shall  the  total
revenue  (energy charge and demand charge combined)  be  less
than  100% of the Out-of-Pocket Costs for supplying the  Non-
Displacement  Energy  for such reservation.   Notwithstanding
all  previous Subsections, when power is sold under both this
Subsection and Subsection 3.3 in any month, the total  demand
charge will be the applicable weighted average demand charges
in  this Subsection and Subsection 3.3.  Such weighting  will
be  developed  by adding the number of hours that  power  was
provided  under  this Subsection times the applicable  demand
charge  under  this Subsection and the number of  hours  that
power  was provided under Subsection 3.3 times the applicable
demand  charge in Subsection 3.3, with the sum being  divided
by  the applicable number of hours of the transaction (month,
week, day or hours).

               (First Revision)


                     SERVICE SCHEDULE C

                SHORT TERM POWER AND ENERGY


SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1   This Service Schedule C, being a part of and under  the
Interconnection Agreement (referred to herein  as  the  "1992
Agreement"),  dated  as  of May 1, 1992,  among  Indianapolis
Power  &  Light  Company (hereinafter called "IPL")  and  PSI
Energy,  Inc.,  formerly  named  Public  Service  Company  of
Indiana,   Inc.  (hereinafter  called  "PSI")   and   CINergy
Services, Inc. (hereinafter called "CINergy Services"), shall
become  effective  as  of the effective  date  of  the  Third
Amendment,  dated  June 30, 1995, to the 1992  Agreement  and
shall continue in effect throughout the duration of the  1992
Agreement.   IPL,  PSI  and CINergy  Services  are  sometimes
hereinafter   referred   to  individually   as   "Party"   or
collectively as "Parties" where appropriate.


SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

2.1   Any  Party,  by  giving the other Parties  notice,  may
reserve  from  the other Parties (a) electric power  ("Weekly
Short  Term Power") for periods of one or more weeks  or  (b)
electric power ("Daily Short Term Power") for periods of  one
or more days whenever the Party requested to reserve the same
is  willing  to  make such power available.   Under  ordinary
circumstances such reservation shall extend for not less than
a  calendar week if it begins with Sunday or for the  balance
of  the calendar week if it begins with any day subsequent to
Sunday; however, under unusual circumstances, the Parties may
mutually  agree upon a reservation of Daily or  Weekly  Short
Term  Power  for a lesser number of days.  In all  cases  the
Party  asked to supply Daily or Weekly Short Term Power shall
be  the sole judge as to the amounts and periods that it  has
electric  power  available that may be  reserved  by  another
Party  as Short Term Power.  A transaction made by any  Party
under  this Service Schedule C shall not extend beyond twelve
(12) months.

     2.11  Prior to each reservation of Weekly or Daily Short
Term  Power,  the  number of megawatts to  be  reserved,  the
period of the reservation, the terms of such reservation, and
the  source of such power if the supplying Party is  in  turn
reserving such power from another interconnected system which
is  not  a  signatory to the 1992 Agreement ("Third  Party"),
shall  be determined by the Parties.  Such reservation  shall
be  confirmed  in writing at the request of  any  Party.   If
during  such period the conditions arise that could not  have
been  reasonably foreseen at the time of the reservation  and
cause  the  reservation  to be burdensome  to  the  supplying
Party,  such Party may by oral notice to the reserving Party,
such  oral  notice  to  be  later  confirmed  in  writing  if
requested  by  any  Party,  reduce the  number  of  megawatts
reserved by such amount and for such time as it shall specify
in  such  notice, but kilowatts reserved hereunder  that  the
supplying  Party is in turn reserving from a Third Party  may
be  reduced only to the extent they are reduced by such Third
Party.

     2.12  During each period that Weekly or Daily Short Term
     Power  has  been reserved, the Party that has agreed  to
     supply such power shall upon call by the reserving Party
     deliver  associated electric energy  ("Weekly  or  Daily
     Short  Term Energy") to the reserving Party  as  of  the
     interconnection point or points, as provided in  Section
     4.01 of Article 4 of the 1992 Agreement at a rate during
     each hour of up to and including the number of megawatts
     reserved.

               (such   charge  pertains  to  the   production
               component  only), except for each  day  (other
               than  Sunday)  during any part  of  which  the
               amount  of  such Weekly Short-Term  Power  and
               Energy  is  reduced by PSI, the  total  demand
               charge shall be reduced by one-sixth (1/6)  of
               said  agreed upon demand charge rate  (rounded
               to  the  nearest $0.10 per megawatt) for  each
               megawatt    of   the   reduction.     Non-firm
               transmission service per the provisions of the
               CINergy  Services, Inc., FERC Electric Tariff,

               NFT  (or any successor transmission tariff  of
               similar  service)  must be  obtained.  In  the
               event  the  amount  of such Weekly  Short-Term
               Power  and  Energy  is reduced  by  PSI,  said
               demand  charge shall be reduced by the sum  of
               (i)  one-sixth (1/6) of the said  agreed  upon
               weekly rate per megawatt of the reduction  for
               each day (other than Sunday) during which such
               reduction   is   in  effect,  and   (ii)   the
               reduction,  if any, in the demand charge  paid
               by PSI to the Third Party;

          (2)  for each megawatt-hour purchased by PSI from a
               Third Party to supply Weekly Short-Term Energy
               delivered during such period, an energy charge
               of   100%  of  the  Out-Of-Pocket  Cost   paid
               therefor  by PSI, plus $1.00 per megawatt-hour
               (for   difficult  to  quantify  energy-related

          account electrical losses incurred from the  source
          or  sources  of  such energy to the interconnection
          point or points) of supplying such energy;

     (c)  for  Daily  Short-Term  Energy  delivered  that  is
          purchased  by  PSI  from a Third Party,  an  energy
          charge  of  100%  of  the Out-of-Pocket  Cost  paid
          therefor  by  PSI, plus $1.00 per megawatt-hour  of
          such  purchased energy (for difficult  to  quantify
          energy-related costs), plus any transmission losses
          resulting  on  the system of the CINergy  Operating
          Companies on account of the transaction,  and  plus
          any   regulatory  commission  charges   and   taxes
          incurred by PSI on account of the transaction.

     3.2.3   When  Daily  Short-Term  Power  and  Energy   is
     purchased  by  the supplying Party from  a  Third  Party
     specifically  for  the  reserving Party,  the  reserving
     Party shall pay the supplying Party all of the following
     which are applicable:

     (a)  the  demand  charge paid therefor by the  supplying
          Party  to  the Third Party for such electric  power
          and energy;

     (b)  when IPL is the supplying Party:

          (1)   for  any day such Daily Short-Term Power  and
          Energy is reserved, a demand charge per kilowatt to
          be  agreed  upon by the Parties at  the  time  such
          Daily Short-Term Power and Energy is reserved, at a
          rate  of  up to $0.058 per kilowatt reserved  (such
          charge    pertains    to   the    reservation    of
          transmission).   In the event the  amount  of  such
          Daily  Short-Term Power and Energy  is  reduced  by
          IPL, said demand charge shall be reduced by the sum
          of (i) one-sixteenth (1/16) of the said agreed upon
          daily  rate per kilowatt of the reduction for  each
          hour  in any day during which such reduction is  in
          effect,  such  reduction not to exceed  the  agreed
          upon  demand  charge for such  day,  and  (ii)  the
          reduction, if any, in the demand charge paid by IPL
          to the Third Party;

          (2)  for each kilowatt-hour purchased by IPL from a
          Third  Party  to  supply  Daily  Short-Term  Energy
          delivered  during such period, an energy charge  of
          100%  of  the  Out-of-Pocket Cost paid therefor  by
          IPL,  plus  one  (1)  mill per  kilowatt-hour  (for
          difficult  to quantify energy-related costs),  plus
          any  transmission losses resulting on IPL*s  system
          on  account of the transaction, and plus any  taxes
          incurred by IPL on account of the transaction;
     (c)  when PSI is the supplying Party:

          (1)    Non-firm   transmission  service   per   the
          provisions  of  the  CINergy Services,  Inc.,  FERC
          Electric  Tariff, Original Volume No.  3,  Non-Firm
          Transmission Service Standard Tariff - NFT (or  any
          successor  transmission tariff of similar  service)
          must  be obtained. In the event the amount of  such
          Daily  Short-Term Power and Energy  is  reduced  by
          PSI, said demand charge shall be reduced by the sum
          of (i) one-sixteenth (1/16) of the said agreed upon
          daily  rate per megawatt of the reduction for  each
          hour in any day during which any such reduction  is
          in  effect, such reduction not to exceed the agreed
          upon  demand  charge for such  day,  and  (ii)  the
          reduction, if any in the demand charge paid by  PSI
          to the Third Party;
          (2)  for each megawatt-hour purchased by PSI from a
          Third  Party  to  supply  Daily  Short-Term  Energy
          delivered  during such period, an energy charge  of
          100%  of  the  Out-of-Pocket Cost paid therefor  by
          PSI, plus $1.00 per megawatt-hour (for difficult to
          quantify    energy-related   costs),    plus    any
          transmission losses resulting on the system of  the
          CINergy  Operating  Companies  on  account  of  the
          transaction,  and  plus  any regulatory  commission
          charges and taxes incurred by PSI on account of the
          transaction.

3.3   Notwithstanding  the rates stated  in  the  Subsections
3.1.1,  3.1.3,  3.2.1  and  3.2.3  above,  when  IPL  is  the
supplying Party, the sum of the demand and energy charges for
each  specific reservation made pursuant to Section 2 of this

     (1)  exceed the total of:

            (i)   the  product  of  the number  of  kilowatts
          reserved  for  such reservation times  the  maximum
          Weekly   or  Daily  demand  charge,  whichever   is
          applicable,  specified above in Subsections  3.1.1,
          3.1.3, 3.2.1 and 3.2.3, as appropriate; and

          (ii)   the  product of the number of kilowatt-hours
          supplied  for such reservation times  110%  of  the
          average  cost per kilowatt-hour of energy generated
          by  IPL's  Petersburg  Unit  No.  4  for  the  last
          preceding month during which it was run; or

     (2)   be less than 110% of the total Out-Of-Pocket  Cost
     of supplying the Short Term Energy for such reservation.

3.4   Notwithstanding the rates stated in Subsections  3.1.2,
3.1.3,  3.2.2 and 3.2.3 above, when PSI and CINergy  Services
are  the  supplying Party, the sum of the demand  and  energy
charges  for  each  specific  reservation  made  pursuant  to
Section 2 of this Service Schedule C shall not:

     (1)  exceed the total of:

          (i) the product of the number of megawatts reserved
          for  such  reservation times the maximum Weekly  or
          Daily   demand  charge,  whichever  is  applicable,
          specified above in Subsections 3.1.2, 3.1.3,  3.2.2
          and 3.2.3, as appropriate, and plus

          (ii)  the  product of the number of  megawatt-hours
          supplied  for such reservation times  110%  of  the
          average  cost per megawatt-hour of energy generated
          by the CINergy Operating Companies* Zimmer Unit No.
          1  and  Gibson Unit No. 5 for the preceding  month;
          nor

     (2)   be  less than 100% of the Out-Of-Pocket  Costs  of
     supplying the Short Term Energy for such reservation.

3.5   The  aggregate instant total capacity of all IPL  sales
under  this and other Service Schedules which are a  part  of
this  and  other IPL Agreements, for which the rates  charged
have been supported on the basis that total revenues will not
exceed  the  costs of Petersburg Unit No. 4,  is  limited  to
515MW.

3.6   The  total power of all sales by the CINergy  Operating
Companies   and  CINergy  Services  under  this   and   other
agreements  of  the CINergy Operating Companies  and  CINergy
Services,  for  which  the  agreed  upon  demand  charge   is
determined based on Zimmer Unit No. 1 and Gibson Unit No.  5,
is  limited  to 925 MWs (CINergy Operating Companies*  Zimmer
Unit  No. 1 Net Demonstrated Capability of 612 MWs and Gibson
Unit  No.  5  Net Demonstrated Capability of 313 MWs)  on  an
hourly basis.  For sales in excess of the power limitation of
925  MWs  noted above, the rate shall consist  of  an  energy
charge  of  up  to 110% of Out-of-Pocket Cost  and  a  demand
charge  of  up to $1,252 per megawatt per week  or  a  demand
charge  of up to $209 per megawatt per day, the total  charge
in  any  one week shall be no more than the product of $1,252
and  the  greatest number of megawatts reserved in  any  hour
during  said  week  (such charge pertains to  the  production
component  only).   Non-firm  transmission  service  per  the
provisions  of  the  CINergy Services,  Inc.,  FERC  Electric
Tariff,   Original  Volume  No.  3,  Non-Firm  Point-to-Point
Transmission Service Standard Tariff - NFT (or any  successor
transmission tariff of similar service) must be obtained; but
in no event shall the total revenue (energy charge and demand
charge combined) be less than 100% of the Out-of-Pocket Costs
of  supplying  the  Short-Term Energy for  such  reservation.
Notwithstanding all previous Subsections, when power is  sold
under  both this Subsection and Subsection 3.1.2 in any week,
the  total demand charge will be the weighted average  demand
charges  in  this  Subsection  and  Subsection  3.1.2.   Such
weighting  will  be developed by adding the number  of  hours
that  power  was  provided under this  Subsection  times  the
demand  charge under this Subsection and the number of  hours
that  power  was  provided under Subsection 3.1.2  times  the
demand  charge  in  Subsection 3.1.2,  with  such  sum  being
divided by the total number of hours in the week.  Also, when
power is sold under both this Subsection and Subsection 3.2.2
in  any  day,  the total demand charge will be  the  weighted
average  demand  charges  in this Subsection  and  Subsection
3.2.2.  Such weighting will be developed by adding the number
of  hours that power was provided under this Subsection times
the  demand  charge under this Subsection and the  number  of
hours  that  power was provided under Subsection 3.2.2  times
the  demand charge in Subsection 3.2.2, with such  sum  being
divided by the total number of hours in the day.

                     SERVICE SCHEDULE D

   CARMEL SOUTHEAST TAP NETWORK POWER AND ENERGY TRANSFER


SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1   This  Service Schedule, being a part of and  under  the
Interconnection Agreement (referred to herein  as  the  "1992
Agreement")  dated  as  of May 1, 1992  between  Indianapolis
Power  &  Light  Company (hereinafter called "IPL")  and  PSI
Energy,  Inc.,  formerly  named  Public  Service  Company  of
Indiana,   Inc.,  (hereinafter  called  "PSI")  and   CINergy
Services, Inc. (hereinafter called "CINergy Services"), shall
become  effective as of the earlier date of either  September
1,  1995 or the effective date of the Third Amendment,  dated
June  30,  1995, and shall continue in effect through  August
31,  1996,  unless extended as provided in Section 6  hereof.
IPL,  PSI  and  CINergy  Services are  sometimes  hereinafter
referred  to  individually  as  "Party"  or  collectively  as
"Parties" where appropriate.


SECTION 2 - FACILITIES TO BE PROVIDED

2.1  PSI shall provide, install, operate and maintain, at its
own  expense, during the term of this Service Schedule  D  as
defined in Section 6 hereof, the following facilities:
     (i)  At its Carmel Southeast Substation - a 138,000 volt
three-phase  interrupting device, a  24/40  MVA  transformer,
12,470  volt  metering  equipment,  relaying,  switching,   a
supervisory  control  remote terminal unit,  a  communication
circuit  from  the  supervisory unit to IPL*s  Load  Dispatch
Office  and  appurtenant equipment, all  of  which  shall  be
subject  to  the  prior  approval  of  IPL.   PSI  shall   be
responsible  for  installing,  owning  and  maintaining   all
necessary  protection equipment required by  IPL  to  protect
IPL*s  facilities associated with Carmel Tap.   PSI*s  remote
terminal  unit shall provide data acquisition, remote  status
and  control of the load and allow PSI to provide  real  time
dispatch  of their generation to their load as well  as  load
control  while IPL will be provided real time breaker  status
and load data.
     (ii) A  138,000  volt  transmission line extending  from
          Carmel  Southeast Substation to Transmission  Tower
          Number  7 (Map Section 173A) on IPL's 138,000  volt
          North-River   Road   (132-57)  transmission   line,
          together with a 138,000 volt tap at such tower,  to
          be known as the Carmel Tap Point.

2.2   IPL  shall provide, install, operate and  maintain,  as
direct  assignment facilities at the sole benefit and expense
of PSI, during the term of the Carmel Tap Point as defined in
Section 6 hereof, a 138,000 volt two-way switching point with
supervisory   controlled  138,000  volt   line   interrupting
disconnect  switches  and associated  facilities  such  as  a
switch  tower,  supervisory terminal unit  and  communication
circuit at the Carmel Tap Point.


SECTION 3 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

3.1   The Parties hereto mutually agree that their respective
radial  distribution systems will not be operated in parallel
through  the  Carmel Tap Point.  Electric energy supplied  by
IPL  to  PSI  at  the  Carmel Tap Point will  be  treated  as
capacity  and  energy simultaneously transferred  into  IPL's
system by PSI through the other interconnection points of the
Parties  and  will  be  used  only  to  supply  the  ultimate
consumers  of PSI who are or may be served from PSI's  Carmel
Southeast  Substation.  Any capacity or energy  delivered  by
IPL   to   PSI  through  the  Carmel  Tap  Point   shall   be
simultaneously  supplied by PSI to IPL  through  any  of  the
interconnection points of the Parties.  PSI*s supplied energy
shall include an adder of approximately 3%-5% to the capacity
and  energy  delivered to the Carmel Tap by IPL to compensate
IPL  for capacity and energy losses occurring on IPL*s system
and  PSI*s  tapped  transmission line  and  transformer  bank
(metered at secondary voltage) due to the transfer of  energy
to the Carmel Tap Point.

3.2  IPL shall provide PSI with the following services:

     1)   Firm,  network  transmission  service  including  a
          capacity reservation (34,500 volt, 138,000 volt and
          above) of up to and including 20 MW*s (measured  at
          the other IPL/PSI interconnection points as defined
          in   the   1992   Agreement).  Said   service   and
          reservation  shall be planned for and  provided  on
          the  same basis as IPL*s firm native load customers
          only  during  the term of this service schedule  as
          set forth in Section 6 herein of this Agreement.

     2)   Non-firm transmission service (34,500 volt, 138,000
          volt  and  above)  up  to  and  including  30  MW*s
          (measured  at  the  other  IPL/PSI  interconnection
          points  in the 1992 Agreement) in addition  to  the
          firm  transmission listed in Point 1  above.   Said
          non-firm  service  shall be  on  an  as  available,
          interruptible basis when requested by PSI.

Upon  IPL*s  request,  PSI shall immediately  curtail  and/or
interrupt  its  firm load served by the 20  MW  firm  network
transmission  and reservation service on the  same  basis  as
IPL*s  firm  native load customers.  If PSI*s demand  exceeds
their  reservation (herein called "excess loading") PSI shall
demonstrate  that all such demand exceeding their reservation
is  1) immediately interruptible by contract or 2) that  such
excess  loading  occurred due to emergency switching  lasting
less  than  a  total  of two (2) weeks within  any  six-month
period.   Otherwise such excess loading shall be  treated  as
having automatically increased PSI*s reservation, for billing
purposes  only, until IPL is satisfied PSI has taken  actions
to  permanently  eliminate such excess  loading.   IPL  shall
coordinate  non-emergency maintenance outages  with  PSI  and
provide  a  minimum notification by 12:00  noon  of  the  day
before the scheduled outage.

3.3   IPL  and  PSI  shall periodically  conduct  independent
and/or  joint  studies of their future systems to  serve  the
Indianapolis northeast metropolitan area.  PSI shall annually
update and provide IPL with their ten year demand projections
for  the Carmel Tap Point.  If such studies indicate problems
due  to  PSI*s  20  MW reservation or projected  increase  in
reservation, then IPL and PSI shall jointly or independently,
as  soon as practicable, develop plans and estimates of  cost
for   the   installation  of  any  additional  equipment   or
facilities necessary to effect a long term solution  to  such
problem  so  that  transmission  services  hereunder  may  be
reliably continued in accordance with IPL standards.

IPL*s studies of this service cover the first five years  and
identified facilities during that period which may need to be
upgraded   if   area  demand  grows  faster  than   presently
projected.  If facility upgrades are required, PSI shall  pay
annual  carrying  costs on a monthly basis  during  the  time
period from the in-service date of the facilities until IPL*s
area  load increases by the amount of PSI*s 20 MW reservation
plus  actual  and projected increases in reservation  (herein
called  "period  of advancement") after which  the  remaining
costs  shall  be rolled into IPL*s rate analysis.   Any  time
PSI*s  reservation, as determined under 3.2  above,  requires
IPL  to install facilities in advance of its need, PSI  shall
pay annual carrying cost on such facilities during the period
of  advancement.  Increased reservations beyond 20 MWs  shall
be treated as interruptible until all necessary facilities to
reliably accommodate these loads are placed in service.   IPL
will not increase or upgrade the capacity of its existing  or
planned  transmission facilities in order to provide  service
under this Agreement if doing so would unduly 1) impair IPL*s
system  reliability or 2) jeopardize the benefits of  service
or  3)  increase  the cost of service to  IPL*s  Native  Load
Customers  and other customers to whom IPL has a pre-existing
contractual obligation.

In  the  event PSI does not elect to continue its reservation
after the term of this Service Schedule, PSI shall pay 1) the
stranded cost of all IPL*s facilities directly assignable  to
providing  firm  service  for PSI*s reservation  and  2)  the
remaining  annual  cost  on a monthly  basis  of  all  system
improvements from the termination date until IPL*s area  load
increase  equals  the  amount of PSI*s reservation.   In  the
event  IPL  can*t  obtain regulatory approvals  for  facility
modifications  needed  to increases PSI*s  reservation,  then
firm  service  shall not be provided for the  amount  of  the
increased service reservation.

3.4  PSI shall provide for ancillary services such as dynamic
reactive  var/voltage support, all generation reserves,  real
time generation dispatch, load following and dispatch control
services  needed to support the operation of the  Carmel  Tap
Point.

3.5   IPL  shall file with the FERC an amendment  to  Service
Schedule D for all direct assignment facilities (not  covered
in  Section  2.2) to be provided for PSI by  IPL  under  this
Service  Schedule  and  for  all costs  for  advanced  system
improvements during the "period of advancement"  due  to  the
PSI  transmission reservation provided under Service Schedule
D.   FERC*s failure to accept the cost assignments for either
direct   assignment   facilities   and/or   advanced   system
improvements due to the PSI network load service provided  in
this  Service  Schedule D shall result in 1) IPL  terminating
its  obligation  to  provide and plan for PSI*s  transmission
reservation as covered in Section 3.2 and Section  3.3  above
or  2)  PSI may elect to reduce the level and/or firmness  of
PSI*s  transmission  reservation so  that  additional  direct
assignment  facilities  and/or  system  improvement  facility
advancements won*t be needed or 3) PSI may elect to terminate
service provided hereunder provided that upon termination  of
this  Service Schedule D by PSI, PSI shall remain responsible
for  paying IPL all costs remaining for all direct assignment
facilities  provided by IPL and all remaining costs  for  all
advanced  system improvements attributed to  PSI  during  the
period  of advancement where said facilities have been  filed
with and accepted by the FERC including the direct assignment
facilities  provided  initially  under  Section   2.2.    The
stranded  cost  of the direct assignment facilities  provided
under  Section 2.2 shall be calculated and marked up for  tax
effects  as  shown in Attachment 1 and shall be paid  by  PSI
within 30 days of receipt of the bill from IPL.
SECTION 4 - DEVIATIONS IN DELIVERIES AT CARMEL TAP POINT

4.1   The  Parties agree that with respect to the Carmel  Tap
Point, PSI shall simultaneously supply (including adjustments
for  losses)  to IPL from PSI*s other interconnection  points
with  IPL  the capacity and energy delivered to PSI  by  IPL.
The  Parties  recognize,  however, that  despite  their  best
efforts  to  simultaneously supply and deliver  capacity  and
energy  (including adjustments for losses) deviations between
actual  and  scheduled energy transfers may occur.   Electric
energy resulting from such deviations shall, at the option of
IPL, be settled for either by return of equivalent energy  or
by  payment of Out-Of-Pocket Costs. If equivalent  energy  is
returned,  it shall be returned at times when the  generating
costs of IPL are equivalent to the generating costs of IPL at
the  time  of  the  deviations or,  if  IPL  elects  to  have
equivalent  energy  returned under different  conditions,  it
shall  be  returned  in such amounts, to be  mutually  agreed
upon,   as   will  compensate  IPL  for  the  difference   in
conditions.

IPL,  at its option, may elect to bill for such Out-Of-Pocket
Costs, plus ten percent of such cost, for any energy supplied
over  and  above that scheduled by PSI for any hour or  hours
during the billing period.  Such costs shall be determined at
the Carmel Tap Point by taking into account electrical losses
incurred  from the source or sources of such energy  to  said
Tap Point.

4.2   If IPL elects to bill for any energy supplied over  and
above that scheduled by PSI for any hour or hours during  the
billing period where the energy was supplied by a Third Party
then  in accordance with the FERC Order 84 the maximum amount
to  be  billed by IPL to PSI shall be 100% of the Third Party
demand  and  energy charge plus 1 mill/kwhr (the 1  mill/kwhr
adder  is applicable only to transactions with a duration  of
less  than one year) plus IPL*s network transmission rate  as
accepted by the FERC under this Service Schedule D.


SECTION 5 - COMPENSATION

5.1   FIRM  SERVICE  - Electric power measured  in  kilowatts
supplied  by PSI and delivered at the Carmel Tap Point  under
the 1992 Agreement by IPL to PSI shall be billed on a monthly
basis the annual cost of IPL*s transmission system multiplied
by  the  ratio  of the sum of PSI*s twelve 20 MW reservations
divided  by  IPL*s  annual system peak  demand  which  equals
$283,200  annually as calculated in the cost support Appendix
A.   The loss factors consisting of a 3-5% adder, as noted in
Section  3.1  hereof, shall include PSI*s radial transmission
line  and  transformer bank associated with  the  Carmel  Tap
Point  and  IPL*s 34,500 volt and above transmission  system.
The loss factors shall include PSI*s radial transmission line
and transformer bank associated with the Carmel Tap Point and
IPL*s  transmission  system.   The  loss  factors  shall   be
determined  by  the annual transmission system  loss  studies
performed  by  IPL  and  PSI.   Also,  increases   in   PSI*s
reservation shall be billed by using the same methodology.
5.2   NON-FIRM SERVICE - Electric power measured in kilowatts
supplied  by PSI and delivered at the Carmel Tap Point  under
the 1992 Agreement by IPL to PSI shall be billed at $1.18 per
kilowatt-month plus $0.01 per kilowatt-month for IPL dispatch
control.  This demand charge for non-firm service applies  to
usage above PSI*s firm service reservation and shall be based
upon  the  difference in maximum hourly demand  in  kilowatts
measured  and the amount of PSI*s reservation in the calendar
month  of  billing.  The loss factors consisting  of  a  3-5%
adder,  as  noted in Section 3.1 hereof, shall include  PSI*s
radial transmission line and transformer bank associated with
the  Carmel  Tap  Point  and  IPL*s  34,500  volt  and  above
transmission system.  The loss factors shall be determined by
the  annual transmission system loss studies performed by IPL
and PSI.

5.3   DIRECT ASSIGNMENT FACILITIES - PSI shall pay IPL  on  a
monthly  basis  IPL*s annual charges on the  total  installed
cost   of  the  facilities  provided  in  Section  2.2  above
multiplied by IPL*s annual carrying charges as calculated  in
Attachment 1 and revisions will be filed with the FERC.


SECTION 6 - TERM OF AGREEMENT

6.1   This  Service Schedule shall terminate August 31,  1996
unless PSI notifies IPL at least six (6) months prior to such
termination date that it desires to continue service  to  the
Carmel  Tap  Point;  provided  however,  that  any  continued
service  is  subject  to  such terms and  conditions  as  are
mutually agreed to by the Parties.

     or resulting from, in any manner, the receiving,
     transmission, control, use, application or
     distribution of said electric power and energy.
     Each Party shall use reasonable diligence to
     maintain its facilities in proper and serviceable
     condition, and shall take reasonable steps and
     precautions for maintaining the services agreed to
     be provided and received under the 1992 Agreement.
     Each Party shall be responsible for its own
     compliance with all applicable environmental
     regulations and shall bear all costs arising from
     its failure to comply with such environmental
     regulations."


2.01 This Sixth Amendment shall be effective as of February
15, 1998 or as of the date it becomes effective under
applicable regulations or orders of FERC, whichever is later.


3.01 This Sixth Amendment is made subject to the jurisdiction
of any governmental authorities having jurisdiction in the
premises.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Sixth
Amendment to the 1992 Agreement to be executed by their
respective duly authorized officers, as of the day, month and
year first above-written.

agreement, subject to the provisions of this Section 1.08 and Section
1.09, such systems shall be operated in continuous synchronism through
such line.  If synchronous operation of the systems through such line
becomes interrupted either manually or automatically because of reasons
beyond the control of either party or because of scheduled maintenance
that has been agreed to by both parties, the parties shall cooperate to
remove the cause of such interruption as soon as practicable and restore
such line to normal operating condition.  Neither party shall be
responsible to the other party for any damage or loss of revenue caused
by any such interruption.

1.09  The parties hereto agree that either party may interrupt
synchronous operation through this interconnection if either determines
that its facilities may be damaged due to excessive loadings, and such
loadings may be reduced or alleviated by such interruption.  If such
interruption occurs, the parties shall cooperate to remove the cause of
such loadings as soon as practicable and restore such interconnection to
normal operating condition.  Neither party shall be responsible to the
other party for damage or loss of revenue caused by such interruption.

The parties hereto further agree to study and negotiate the installation,
ownership, and cost of any additional equipment necessary to effect a
long term solution to any such excessive loading herein described in the
event either party determines that this interconnection contributes to
the excess loading and requests such negotiation.

Maintenance of Equipment

1.10  The parties hereto shall each keep the lines, together with all
associated equipment and appurtenances, described in Article 1 hereof
that are located on their respective sides of the Interconnection Point
in a suitable condition of repair at all times, each at its own expense,
in order that said lines will operate in a reliable  and satisfactory
manner and in order that reduction in the capacity of said lines will be
avoided to the extent practicable.

1.11  The parties hereto understand that IPL and Hoosier each now has its
transmission system interconnected with the electric transmission systems
of other electric utility companies and each has contracted for other
such interconnections and may hereafter during the term of this agreement
desire to make additional interconnections with such companies or with
other electric utility companies.  Each such additional interconnection
with another electric utility system shall be discussed between the
parties and if, in the opinion of either party, the establishment of such
interconnection will cause transfer of power or reactive power through
the system of either party during normal parallel operation to or from
the systems with which either party proposes to add an interconnection to
its system, then before any such additional interconnection is made,
joint load studies shall be carried on to determine the effect which such
interconnection will have on the transmission systems of the parties.  If
as the results of such studies it is the reasonable opinion of one of the
parties that the proposed additional interconnection would cause
unreasonable transfers of power or reactive power through the electric
transmission system of such party or otherwise impair the ability of such
party to carry out its own obligations, then the party proposing such
additional interconnection shall, before such proposed interconnection is
placed in service:

     1.111     agree to compensate the other party for the use of that
     portion of its facilities determined to be dedicated to the new
     situation caused by the establishment of the proposed interconnection;
     and/or

     1.112     install and/or remove such equipment as may be reasonably
     necessary to avoid such unreasonable transfers of power or reactive
     power; or

     1.113     abandon the establishment of such additional interconnection.

2.02  Inasmuch as the specific services to be rendered in furtherance of
such purpose will vary, and the terms and conditions applicable to such
services may require modification from time to time while this Agreement
is in effect, it is intended that such specific services and the terms
and conditions applicable thereto be set forth in service schedules
mutually agreed upon from time to time between the parties.  Such service
schedules, until and unless changed by such mutual agreement, shall be
those provided by Section 2.03 hereof, each of which, while in effect,
shall be deemed to be a part of this agreement.  Nothing contained herein
shall be construed as affecting in any way the right of IPL in furnishing
service under these rate schedules to unilaterally make application to
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") for a change in rates
under Section 205 of the Federal Power Act and pursuant to the FERC's
Rules and Regulations promulgated thereunder.  Nothing contained herein
shall be construed as affecting in any way the right of Hoosier in

2.04  Nothing in this Agreement shall require either party hereto to
purchase power or energy from a third party and resell it to the other
party hereto at a price less than the total cost of supplying such
purchased power or energy.

                            ARTICLE 3

                       SERVICE CONDITIONS

Control of System Disturbance

3.01  The parties hereto shall maintain and operate their respective
systems in accordance with sound operating practice so as to minimize the
likelihood of disturbance originating in either system which might cause
impairment to the service of the system of the other party or of any
system interconnected with the system of the other party.

Control of Kilovar Exchange

3.02  It is intended that neither party hereto shall be obligated to
deliver kilovars for the benefit of the other party; also that neither
party shall be obligated to receive kilovars when to do so may introduce
objectionable operating conditions on its system.  The Operating
Committee shall be responsible for the establishment from time to time of
operating procedures and schedules, in respect of carrying kilovar loads
by one system for the other in order to secure adequate service and
economical use of the facilities of both systems and in respect of proper
charges, if any, for the use of facilities carrying kilovar loads. In
discharging such duties the Operating Committee shall recognize that in
the transmission and delivery of power and energy hereunder the carrying
of kilovar loads by either of the parties, in harmony with sound
engineering principles of transmission operation with their systems
interconnected, is subject to numerous variables contingent upon loading
and operating conditions existing simultaneously on both of their
systems.  The operating procedures and schedules so set up by the
Operating Committee shall be in accord with such principles and shall
require each of the parties to carry kilovar loads at such times and in
such amounts as will be equitable to both parties.

Control of Unscheduled Power Deliveries

3.03  The parties hereto shall exercise reasonable foresight in carrying
out all matters related to the providing and operating of their
respective electric power resources so as to minimize to the extent
practicable deviations between actual and scheduled deliveries of
electric power and energy between their systems.  The parties shall
provide and install on their respective systems such communication and
telemetering facilities as are essential to so minimize such deviations;
and, in developing and executing operating procedures that will enable
the parties to avoid, to the extent practicable, deviations from
scheduled deliveries, shall fully cooperate with each other and with
third parties whose systems are either directly or indirectly
interconnected with the systems of the parties and who of necessity,
together with the parties, must unify their efforts cooperatively to
achieve effective and efficient interconnected operation.  The parties
recognize, however, that, despite their best efforts to prevent the same,
unscheduled deliveries of electric energy from one party to the other may
occur.  In such events, electric energy delivered hereunder shall be
settled for either by the return of equivalent energy or by payment of
the out-of-pocket cost (such  cost being at the delivery point or points,
set forth in Section 4.01 of this agreement, taking into account
electrical losses incurred from the source or sources of such energy to
said delivery point or points) of electric energy delivered hereunder to
the supplying party plus ten percent of such cost.  If equivalent energy
is returned, it shall be returned at times when the load conditions of
the party receiving it are substantially equivalent to the load
conditions of such party at the time the energy for which it is returned
was delivered or, if such party elects to have equivalent energy returned
under different conditions, it shall be returned in such amounts, to be
agreed upon by the Operating Committee, as will compensate for the
difference in conditions.


                            ARTICLE 4

         DELIVERY POINTS, METERING POINTS, AND METERING

Delivery Points

A.   a continuous automatic graphic record of both kilowatts and
     kilovars,

B.   an automatic record of the kilowatthours for each clock hour, and

C.   a continuous integrating record of the kilowatthours.

4.04  Unless otherwise provided for in this agreement, measurements of
electric energy for the purpose of effecting settlements under this
agreement shall be made by standard types of electric meters installed
and maintained, by the owner at the metering point provided for in
Section 4.02 hereof.  The timing devices of all meters having such
devices shall be maintained in time synchronism as closely as
practicable.  The meters shall be sealed and the seals shall be broken
only upon occasions when the meters are to be tested or adjusted. For
the purpose of checking the records of the metering equipment installed
by one of the parties hereto as hereinabove provided, the other party
hereto shall have the right to install check metering equipment at the
aforesaid metering points.  Check metering equipment so installed by one
party on the premises of another party, unless otherwise provided for in
this agreement, shall be owned and maintained by the party installing
such equipment.  Upon termination of this agreement, the party owning
such check metering equipment shall remove it from the premises of the
other party.  Authorized representatives of both parties shall have
access at all reasonable hours to the premises where the meters are
located and to the records made by the meters.

4.05  The aforesaid metering equipment shall be tested by the owner at
suitable intervals and its accuracy of registration maintained in
accordance with good practice.  On request of either party hereto, a
special test may be made at the expense of the party requesting such
special test.  Representatives of both parties shall be afforded the
opportunity to be present at all routine or special tests and upon
occasions when any readings for purposes of settlements hereunder are
taken from meters not bearing an automatic record.

4.06  If, at any test of metering equipment an inaccuracy shall be
disclosed exceeding two percent, the account between the parties hereto
for service theretofore delivered shall be adjusted to correct for the
inaccuracy over the shorter of the following two periods:  (1) for the
thirty-day period immediately preceding the day of the test or (2) for
the period that such inaccuracy may be determined to have existed.
Should the metering equipment provided for in Section 4.03 hereof at any
time fail to register, the electric power and energy delivered during
such failure shall be determined from the check meters, if installed, or
otherwise shall be determined from the best available data.

                            ARTICLE 5

                     RECORDS AND STATEMENTS

Records

5.01  In addition to records of the metering provided for in Article 4
hereof, the parties hereto shall keep, in duplicate, such other records
as may be needed to afford a clear history of the various deliveries of
electric energy made, and of the clock-hour integrated demands in
kilowatthours delivered, by one party to the other.  In maintaining such
records, the parties shall effect such segregations and allocations of
demands and electric energy delivered into classes representing the
various services and conditions as may be needed to effect settlements
under this agreement.  The originals of all such records shall be
retained by the party keeping the records and the duplicates shall be
delivered monthly to the other party, unless the parties agree in writing
upon a different time interval for such delivery.

Statements

5.02  As promptly as practicable after the end of each calendar month,
the parties hereto shall cause to be prepared a statement setting forth
the electric power and energy transactions between them during such month
in such detail and with such segregations as may be needed for operating
records or for settlements under this agreement.

                            ARTICLE 6

                      BILLINGS AND PAYMENTS

6.01  All bills for amounts owed by one party hereto to the other shall
be due and payable on the fifteenth day of the month next following the
month in which the service was provided, or on the tenth day following
receipt of a bill therefor, whichever is later.  Interest on unpaid
amounts shall accrue at the annual rate of 1/2 percent above the prime
commercial lending rate established from time to time by Indiana National
Bank at Indianapolis, Indiana and is chargeable from the due date of the
bill to the date of payment.  The term "month" shall mean a calendar
month for the purpose of settlements under this agreement.

                            ARTICLE 7

                       OPERATING COMMITTEE

7.01  To coordinate the operation of their respective generating,
transmission and substation facilities, in order that the advantages to
be derived hereunder may be realized by the parties hereto to the fullest
practicable extent, the parties shall establish a committee of authorized
representatives to be known as the Operating Committee.  Each of the
parties shall designate in writing delivered to the other party, the
person who is to act as its representative on said committee (and the
person or persons who may serve as alternates whenever such
representative is unable to act).  Each of such representatives and
alternates shall be persons familiar with the generating, transmission,
and substation facilities of the system of the party he represents, and
each shall be fully authorized (1) to cooperate with the other
representative (or alternates) and (2) to determine and agree from time
to time, in accordance with this agreement and with any other relevant

                        EMERGENCY SERVICE

SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1  This Service Schedule, being a part of an agreement dated as of
December 1, 1981, between Indianapolis Power & Light Company ("IPL") and
Hoosier Energy Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc. ("Hoosier") (the
"Agreement") shall become effective on the Interconnection Date as
defined in Article 9 of the Agreement and shall continue in effect until
termination of the Agreement.

SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

2.1  Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2 of this Section 2, in
the event of a breakdown or other emergency in or on the system of either
party involving either sources of power or transmission facilities, or
both, impairing or jeopardizing the ability of the party suffering the
emergency to meet the loads of its system, the other party shall supply
to the party having the emergency such electric energy as the supplying
party is requested to deliver; provided, that neither party shall be
obligated to supply such emergency energy which, in the supplying party's
sole judgment, cannot be delivered without creating a hazard to or
economic burden upon its operations or without impairing or jeopardizing
the total load requirements of its system; and provided further, that
neither party shall be obligated to supply such emergency energy for a
period in excess of forty-eight consecutive hours during any single
emergency.

2.2  The parties recognize that the supply of electric energy as
provided for in subsection 2.1 of this Section 2 is subject to two
conditions which may preclude the delivery of such energy as so
provided:

(a) the party requested to deliver electric energy may be
suffering an emergency in or on its own system as described in said
subsection 2.1, or

(b) the system of the party of whom such request is made may be
delivering electric energy, under a mutual emergency interchange
agreement, to the system of another interconnected company which is
suffering an emergency in or on its system.  Under conditions as cited
under (a) above, neither party shall be considered to be in default
hereunder if unable to comply with the provisions of said subsection 2.1.
Under conditions as cited under (b) above, neither party shall be
considered to be in default hereunder if it is unable to comply with the
provisions of said subsection 2.1 provided that the aforesaid
interconnected company has suffered said emergency in or on its system
prior to and within forty-eight hours of that of the other party hereto
and that, if requested by said other party, such delivery of electric
energy to said interconnected company shall be discontinued within
forty-eight hours following the start of such delivery, and a subsequent
delivery shall be made for a full forty-eight hour period to said other
party in accordance with the provisions of said subsection 2.1.

2.3  If at any time the record over a reasonably prior period shows
clearly that either of the parties has failed to deliver energy in
accordance with and subject to the provisions of subsection 2.1 and
subsection 2.2 of this Section 2, either party, by written notice given
to the other party, may call for a joint study by the parties of the
reserve generating capacity in and provided for their respective systems
and of their respective system transmission facilities affecting the
supply and delivery of power and energy under the Agreement.  It shall be
the purpose of such study to determine the adequacy or inadequacy of
reserve generating capacity and transmission facilities being provided to
meet the requirements of the parties' respective systems, reflecting
obligations under the Agreement, and, if inadequate, the extent of the
burden that one party may be placing upon the other.  If it should be
found that one party is placing an unreasonable burden upon the other,
the party causing such burden shall take such measures as are necessary
to remove the burden from the other party, or the parties shall enter
into such arrangements as shall provide for equitable compensation to the
party being burdened.

SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

3.1  Emergency Energy shall be settled for, at the option of the
supplying party, either by payment or by return of equivalent energy.

3.2  If the supplying party opts to receive payment for Emergency Energy
delivered, the receiving party shall pay the supplying party the greater of:

     3.21      110% of the out-of-pocket cost of supplying such Emergency
               Energy that is generated from the supplying party's own
               system, and, for energy purchased by the supplying party from
               another system to supply any part of such Emergency Energy,
               100% of the amount paid by the supplying party therefor plus
               10% of that amount, not exceeding, however, 1.6 mills per
               kilowatthour; or

     3.22      30 mills per kilowatthour of such Emergency Energy

3.3  If the supplying party opts to receive equivalent energy for
Emergency Energy delivered, such equivalent energy shall be returned at
times when the load conditions of the party originally supplying
Emergency Energy are substantially equivalent to the load conditions of
such party that existed when the Emergency Energy was delivered or, if
such party elects to have equivalent energy returned under different
conditions, it shall be returned in such amounts and at such times as,
the Operating Committee agrees will compensate the original supplying
party, for the difference in conditions.



                                                        EXHIBIT II

                       SERVICE SCHEDULE B

                         ENERGY TRANSFER

SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1  This Service Schedule, being a part of an agreement dated as of
December 1, 1981, between Indianapolis Power & Light Company ("IPL") and
Hoosier Energy Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc. ("Hoosier") (the
"Agreement") shall become effective on the Interconnection Date as
defined in Article 9 of the Agreement and shall continue in effect until
termination of the Agreement.

SECTION 2 - TRANSFER ARRANGEMENT

2.1  In carrying out the interconnected operation of their respective
systems as provided for under the Agreement, energy being received by a
portion of one party's system from another portion of its system or to
the system of another interconnected company, may flow over the
transmission facilities of the other party as a natural result of the
physical and electrical characteristics of the interconnected network of
transmission lines to which the parties are connected.  Such flow of
energy may occur during periods when conditions of system operation are
normal or may occur during periods of emergency caused by the failure of
either sources of power or transmission facilities, or both.  In respect
to such flow of energy (hereinafter called "energy transfer") the parties
agree as follows:

     2.11      Such energy transfer over their respective transmission
               facilities shall be permitted whenever such transfer occurs;
               provided, that such energy transfer shall not be of such
               magnitude or duration as to affect adversely, or jeopardize
               the ability of, the party over whose system such energy
               transfers occur to render or accept service to or from
               companies with which it now has, or at any time hereafter may
               have contractual arrangements for the interchange of power or
               energy.

     2.12      The parties recognize that in carrying out the provisions of
               this Service Schedule, the above described energy transfer,
               either during periods when conditions of system operation are
               normal or during periods of emergency, or both, may
               eventually require the installation of additional
               transmission facilities in order that such energy transfer
               may be properly controlled to the end that the ability of the
               party over whose system such energy transfers occur to meet
               its own requirements, as described under 2.11 above, is not
               affected adversely or jeopardized.  In the event the need for
               such additional transmission facilities becomes apparent to
               either of the parties during any term of this Service
               Schedule, upon written notice given by either party to the
               other party and as soon as practicable following such notice,
               the parties shall jointly reexamine conditions relating to
               energy transfer.  In such reexamination, if called for, the
               parties shall agree upon such additional transmission
               facilities as may be required to be installed, if any, and
               upon an equitable basis for bearing the cost of installing,
               maintaining and operating such facilities, if installed.

SECTION 3 - POWER AND ENERGY ACCOUNTING

3.1  The parties recognize that energy transfers as described under
Section 2 of this Service Schedule, except for such amounts of electrical
losses as may be incurred because of such energy transfers, are the
simultaneous acceptance and delivery of like amounts of power and energy
by and from the system of the party over whose system such energy
transfers occur.  Power and energy associated with energy transfers,
including electrical losses associated therewith, shall be accounted for
each clock-hour as provided for under Article 5 of the Agreement. Proper
consideration to such electrical losses will be in accordance with the
manner agreed upon by the Operating Committee.  It is understood by the
parties, however, that such electrical losses resulting from energy
transfers, to be taken as losses over and above the losses prevailing
under basic conditions agreed upon by the parties, shall be supplied
simultaneously by the party for whom such energy transfers are being
made.  The parties agree that initially such basic conditions will be
established as those that exist when the scheduled net delivery between
the systems of the parties, and between their respective systems and the
systems of other interconnected companies, is zero kilowatts.  It is
further understood that, from time to time, conditions may require the
establishment of different basic conditions for such purpose. Either
party by written notice given to the other party may call for a prompt
reexamination and reconsideration of matters pertinent to the
establishment of said basic conditions, whenever such reexamination
appears to be warranted, and the parties will thereupon agree to effect
such changes in the basic conditions, if any, that will equitably
compensate the parties for such losses.  Should such reexamination be
required, a statement will be prepared by the parties which shall include
in detail the amounts of energy delivered and received by the parties
that are associated with energy transfer and the amounts of electrical
losses associated therewith.

                       SERVICE SCHEDULE C

                        INTERCHANGE POWER

SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1  This Service Schedule, being a part of an agreement dated as of
December 1, 1981, between Indianapolis Power & Light Company ("IPL") and
Hoosier Energy Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc. ("Hoosier") (the "Agreement")
shall become effective on the Interconnection Date as
defined in Article 9 of the Agreement and shall continue in effect until
termination of the Agreement.

SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

Economy Energy

2.1  Either party may arrange to purchase from the other party electric
energy ("Economy Energy") when it is possible to effect a saving thereby
and, when, in the sole judgment of the supplying party, such energy is
available.  Prior to each Economy Energy transaction, the amount of
energy, the time of its delivery, and the charge therefore shall be
determined by the parties.  Receipt or delivery of Economy Energy may
also be arranged with other interconnected systems not parties to this
Agreement.

Non-Displacement Energy

2.2  It is recognized that occasions will arise when transactions under
subsection 2.1 above will be impracticable although a party may have
electric energy (herein called "Non-Displacement Energy") which it is
willing to make available from surplus capacity from its own system or
from outside sources, or both and which can be utilized advantageously
for short intervals by the other party.  In such event, the party
desiring such receipt of energy shall notify the other party of the
extent to which it desires to obtain Non-Displacement Energy, and if the
other party, in its sole judgment, determines that Non-Displacement
Energy is available, schedules providing the periods and extent of use
shall be mutually agreed upon.  Neither party shall be obligated to make
any Non-Displacement Energy available to the other.

SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

Economy Energy

3.1  The charge for Economy Energy purchased by either party from the
other shall be based on the principle that the purchasing party shall pay
the out-of-pocket cost of the supplying party such energy and that the
resulting savings to the purchasing party shall be equally shared by both
parties.

3.2  When Economy Energy is obtained from or delivered to other
interconnected systems not signatories to this Agreement, payments shall
be based on the out-of-pocket cost of the supplying party or system
providing the energy and an allocation of the gross savings to be
realized.  For such purpose, gross savings is defined as the difference
between the out-of-pocket cost of the purchasing party or system to
generate such energy, and the out-of-pocket cost of the supplying party
or system to provide such energy.  Such allocation shall be made as
provided in subsections 3.21 and 3.22 of this section.

     3.21      Each party or system participating in the transaction other
               than the supplying and purchasing parties or systems, shall
               be paid (a) its cost of purchasing the energy supplied, plus
               (b) its cost of any additional transmission losses incurred,
               plus (c) fifteen percent of the savings remaining after
               deducting all such costs for transmission losses.

     3.22      The supplying party or system shall be paid out-of-pocket
               costs of providing the energy, plus one-half of the gross
               savings remaining after deducting all (b) and (c) costs
               enumerated in section 3.21 above.  The receiving party or
               system shall be entitled to the other one-half of the such
               savings.

Non-Displacement Energy

3.3  Non-Displacement Energy delivered hereunder shall be settled for
either by return of equivalent energy or, at the option of the supplying
party, by payment of the out-of-cost of the supplying party in generating
or supplying such energy plus ten percent of such cost.  Such cost shall
be as of the delivery point or points, as provided for in Section 4.01 of
said Interconnection Agreement, and shall take into account the electrical
losses incurred from the source or sources of such energy to said delivery
point or points.  If equivalent energy is returned, it shall be returned at
times when the load conditions of the receiving party are equivalent to the
load conditions of such party at the time the energy was delivered.  If such
party elects to have equivalent energy returned under different conditions,
such energy shall be returned in such amounts as will compensate the
supplying party for the difference in conditions as agreed by the Operating
Committee.

                       SERVICE SCHEDULE D

                        SHORT TERM POWER

SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1  This Service Schedule, being a part of an agreement dated as of
December 1, 1981, between Indianapolis Power & Light Company ("IPL") and
Hoosier Energy Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc. ("Hoosier") (the "Agreement")
shall become effective on the Interconnection Date as
defined in Article 9 of the Agreement and shall continue in effect until
termination of the Agreement.

SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

2.1  Either party, by giving the other party sufficient notice, may
reserve for periods of one or more days or weeks, such electric power
(herein called "Short Term Power") as the supplying party at that time
may have and is willing to supply as Short Term Power.  The party asked
to supply Short Term Power shall be the sole judge as to the amounts and
periods that it has electric power available that may be reserved by the
other party as Short Term Power.  As used herein, the term "week" shall
mean any seven consecutive days.

2.2  The party desiring to reserve Short Term Power shall specify in a
notice to the other party the number of kilowatts and the period for
which it desires to reserve such power and the desired delivery schedule
for such power.  The supplying party shall promptly acknowledge receipt
of such notice and, shall signify the extent of its ability and willingness
to supply power in accordance with the provisions of such
notice.  Any such notice or acknowledgement thereof initially may be
given orally; however if requested by either party, it shall be confirmed
in writing and such confirmation shall be forwarded not later than the
third day following the day such oral notice is given, excluding
Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.

2.3  During the period the Short Term Power has been reserved as
provided in Section 2.2 above, the supplying party shall deliver upon
call electric energy (herein called "Short Term Energy") to the other
party at the delivery point or points set forth in Section 4.01 of the
Agreement in amounts not to exceed the number of kilowatts reserved.
However, in the event conditions arise during such period which could not
have been reasonably foreseen at the time Short Term Energy was reserved
and such conditions would cause the delivery of said power to be
burdensome to the supplying party, said party shall have the right to
require the purchasing party to reduce for any portion of such period the
amount of such energy being taken to the amount specified by the
supplying party.  The purchasing party shall promptly comply with such
requirement of the supplying party.

SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

3.1  The purchasing party shall pay the supplying party;

     3.11  For any week that Short Term Power is reserved, $1.05 per
     kilowatt reserved; less, for each day during any part of which the
     amount of such Short Term Power is reduced by the supplying party,
     $0.18 per kilowatt of the reduction (except that in no event shall
     the total of such deductions in any week exceed $1.05 per
     kilowatt).  For each period less than one week that Short Term
     Power is reserved, $0.18 per kilowatt reserved per day; less, for
     any day during any part of which the amount of Short Term Power is
     reduced by the supplying party, $0.18 per kilowatt of the
     reduction; plus

     3.12  110% of the out-of-pocket cost of supplying the Short Term
     Energy taken during such reservation periods that comes from the
     supplying party's own system; plus, for energy purchased by the
     supplying party from another system to supply any part of the Short
     Term Energy taken during such reservation periods, 100% of the
     amount paid therefore by the supplying party plus 10% thereof not
     to exceed 1.6 mills per kilowatthour.

                       SERVICE SCHEDULE E

                    LIMITED TERM POWER (FIRM)

SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1  This Service Schedule, being a part of an agreement dated as of
December 1, 1981, between Indianapolis Power & Light Company ("IPL") and
Hoosier Energy Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc. ("Hoosier") (the
"Agreement") shall become effective on the Interconnection Date as
defined in Article 9 of the Agreement and shall continue in effect until
termination of the Agreement.

SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

2.1  Either party by giving the other party notice may reserve for
periods of not less than one (1) or more than twelve (12) months, such
electric power (herein called "Limited Term Power (Firm)") as the other
party may be willing to make available as Limited Term Power (Firm).  The
party asked to supply Limited Term Power (Firm) shall be the sole judge
as to the amounts and periods that it has electric power available that
may be reserved by the other party as Limited Term Power (Firm).

     2.11 To reserve Limited Term Power (Firm), the party desiring such
          power shall specify in its notice to the supplying party the
          number of kilowatts and the period for which it desires to so
          reserve such power.  The supplying party shall signify the
          extent of its ability and willingness to comply with the
          provisions of such notice.  Any notice or any acknowledgement
          of such notice that initially may be given orally shall be
          confirmed thereafter in writing.

     2.12      During each period that Limited Term Power (Firm) has been
               reserved as above provided, the supplying party shall deliver
               upon call electric energy (herein called "Limited Term Energy
               (Firm)") to the other party at the delivery point or points
               set forth in Section 4.01 of Article 4 of the Agreement in
               any amount up to and including the number of kilowatts
               reserved.  However, in the event conditions arise during such
               period which could not have been reasonably foreseen at the
               time said power was reserved and such conditions would cause
               the delivery of Limited Term Energy (Firm) to be burdensome
               to the supplying party, the supplying party may, upon notice
               to the reserving party reduce or interrupt the delivery of
               such energy to preserve the integrity of, or to prevent or
               limit any instability on, its system.

     2.13      The Limited Term Power (Firm) billing demand for any period
               shall be taken as equal to the number of kilowatts reserved
               as Limited Term Power (Firm) for such period.

SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

3.1  The reserving party shall pay the supplying party:

     3.1  For any month that Limited Term Power (Firm) is reserved,
     $5.50 per kilowatt reserved; plus,

     3.12 110% of the out-of-pocket costs of supplying the Limited Term
     Energy (Firm) taken during such reserved periods that is generated
     by the supplying party, plus, for energy purchased by the supplying
     party from another system to supply any part of the Limited Term
     Energy (Firm), 100% of the amount paid therefore by the supplying
     party, plus 10% thereof not to exceed 1.6 mills per kilowatthour.

defined in Article 9 of the Agreement and shall continue in effect until
termination of the Agreement.

SECTION 2 - DIVERSITY POWER

2.1  From time to time, because of differences in load patterns one of
the parties hereto may have excess capacity during one seasonal load
period at the same time the other party is experiencing its peak load
season.  At such time it may be to the parties' mutual advantage to
schedule exchange of certain portions of any such excess capacity.
Such
capacity shall be termed and is herein called "Diversity Power."

     2.015     Seasonal Load Period shall mean for the Summer Season Load
     Period, the months of April thru September and for the Winter
     Seasonal Load Period, the months of October thru March.

2.2  At any time Diversity Power transactions are agreed upon between
the parties, the party which purchases Diversity Power during one
seasonal load period shall be obligated to have available a like amount
of Diversity Power for the other party during the other seasonal load
period.

2.3  The party supplying Diversity Power shall provide reserve capacity
for the committed amount, equivalent to that provided for its own
customers, exclusive of customers with interruptible service contracts.

2.4  Energy associated with the reservation of Diversity Power shall be
scheduled by the purchasing party no less than 18 hours in advance of
receiving such energy.  Energy receipts for a Monday shall be scheduled
no later than noon of the preceding Friday.

SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

3.1  Demand Charges - There shall be no demand charge for Diversity
Power.

3.2  Energy Charges - Energy shall be billed at out-of-pocket cost plus
ten percent of such cost.  In the event that any part of the
out-of-pocket cost includes energy purchased by the supplying Party, only
the energy portion of such purchase cost shall be included.  Any
associated charges for demand, transmission, or other burden shall be
excluded.

as hereinafter set forth;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
covenants herein set forth, the parties agree as follows:

     SECTION 1 - Section 3--Compensation of Service Schedule D - Short
Term Power of the 1981 Agreement shall be modified and amended to read as
follows:

"SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

3.1  The purchasing party shall pay the supplying party;

     3.11 DEMAND CHARGE - For any week that Short Term Power is
     reserved, (a) $1.05 per kilowatt reserved if IPL is the supplying
     party or (b) a rate not to exceed $1.05 per kilowatt reserved if

     "20.01  Default Defined.  As used herein, "Default" shall mean the
     failure of a party to make any payment or perform any obligation at
     the time and in the manner required by this agreement, except where
     such failure to discharge obligations (other than the payment of
     money) is the result of Force Majeure.  Failure to make any payment
     in the time and manner required by this agreement shall not be
     excused as a Default by payment of late charges in accordance with
     the provisions in Section 20.02 below.

     "20.02  Remedies For Default.  Upon failure of a party to make a
     payment or perform an obligation required hereunder, the other
     party shall give written notice of Default to the defaulting party.
     The defaulting party shall have thirty (30) days within which to
     cure the Default.  If a Default is not cured within such period,
     the party not in Default, at its option, may, in addition to all
     other rights and remedies available at law, in equity or under any
     other provision of this agreement:  (i) give notice to the

     such steps as such party deems necessary to cure the Default, or
     (ii) suspend this agreement for a period of 6 months, after which
     this agreement shall automatically terminate.  The defaulting party
     shall, in any event, pay to the other party the total of all

     result of such Default and/or the curing of such Default,
     including, reasonable attorneys' fees, money reasonably paid to
     others, the reasonable equivalent in money for services of property
     obtained, and any other costs reasonably incurred by such other
     party in attempting to remedy such Default, together with interest
     on the total of such costs at the per annum rate of two (2) percent
     above the commercial lending rate as determined in Article 6 hereof.
     This provision is not intended as a liquidated damages
     provision or to limit liability in any way, and the party not in
     Default may also maintain such other actions for damages as may be
     provided by law, in equity or under this agreement."

                           "ARTICLE 21

                         "FORCE MAJEURE

     "21.02  Force Majeure.  The term "Force Majeure" shall mean any
     cause beyond the control of the party invoking the Force Majeure,
     including, but not limited to, failure or threat of failure of

                       SERVICE SCHEDULE A

                        EMERGENCY SERVICE

SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1  This Service Schedule, being a part of an agreement dated as of
December 1, 1981, between Indianapolis Power & Light Company ("IPL") and
Hoosier Energy Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc. ("Hoosier") (the
"Agreement") shall become effective on the Interconnection Date as
defined in Article 9 of the Agreement and shall continue in effect until
termination of the Agreement.

SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

2.1  Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2 of this Section 2, in
the event of a breakdown or other emergency in or on the system of either
party involving either sources of power or transmission facilities, or
both, impairing or jeopardizing the ability of the party suffering the
emergency to meet the loads of its system, the other party shall supply
to the party having the emergency such electric energy as the supplying
party is requested to deliver; provided, that neither party shall be
obligated to supply such emergency energy which, in the supplying party's
sole judgment, cannot be delivered without creating a hazard to or
economic burden upon its operations or without impairing or jeopardizing
the total load requirements of its system; and provided further, that
neither party shall be obligated to supply such emergency energy for a
period in excess of forty-eight consecutive hours during any single
emergency.

2.2  The parties recognize that the supply of electric energy as
provided for in subsection 2.1 of this Section 2 is subject to two
conditions which may preclude the delivery of such energy as so provided:

(a) the party requested to deliver electric energy may be suffering an
emergency in or on its own system as described in said subsection 2.1, or

(b) the system of the party of whom such request is made may be
delivering electric energy under a mutual emergency interchange
agreement, to the system of another interconnected company which is
suffering an emergency in or on its system.  Under conditions as cited
under (a) above, neither party shall be considered to be in default
hereunder if unable to comply with the provisions of said subsection 2.1.
Under conditions as cited under (b) above, neither party shall be
considered to be in default hereunder if it is unable to comply with the
provisions of said subsection 2.1 provided that the aforesaid
interconnected company has suffered said emergency in or on its system
prior to and within forty-eight hours of that of the other party hereto
and that, if requested by said other party, such delivery of electric
energy to said interconnected company shall be discontinued within
forty-eight hours following the start of such delivery, and a subsequent
delivery shall be made for a full forty-eight hour period to said other
party in accordance with the provisions of said subsection 2.1.

2.3  If at any time the record over a reasonably prior period shows
clearly that either of the parties has failed to deliver energy in
accordance with and subject to the provisions of subsection 2.1 and
subsection 2.2 of this Section 2, either party, by written notice given
to the other party, may call for a joint study by the parties of the
reserve generating capacity in and provided for their respective systems
and of their respective system transmission facilities affecting the
supply and delivery of power and energy under the Agreement.  It shall be
the purpose of such study to determine the adequacy or inadequacy of
reserve generating capacity and transmission facilities being provided to
meet the requirements of the parties' respective systems, reflecting
obligations under the Agreement, and, if inadequate, the extent of the
burden that one party may be placing upon the other.  If it should be
found that one party is placing an unreasonable burden upon the other,
the party causing such burden shall take such measures as are necessary
to remove the burden from the other party, or the parties shall enter
into such arrangements as shall provide for equitable compensation to the
party being burdened.

SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

3.1  Emergency Energy shall be settled for, at the option of the
supplying party, either by payment or by return of equivalent energy.

3.2  If the supplying party opts to receive payment for Emergency Energy
delivered, the receiving party shall pay the supplying party the greater
of:

     3.21      110% of the out-of-pocket cost of supplying such Emergency
               Energy that is generated from the supplying party's own
               system, and, for energy purchased by the supplying party from
               another interconnected system which is not a signatory to
               this Agreement ("Third Party") at the request of the
               receiving party, 100% of the amount paid to such Third Party
               plus up to 3.46 mills per kilowatthour (consisting of up to
               2.46 mills per kilowatthour for a transmission charge and 1
               mill per kilowatthour for difficult to quantify energy
               related costs) plus any transmission losses.

     3.22      30 mills per kilowatthour of such Emergency Energy

3.3  If the supplying party opts to receive equivalent energy for
Emergency Energy delivered; such equivalent energy shall be returned at
times when the load conditions of the party originally supplying
Emergency Energy are substantially equivalent to the load conditions of
such party that existed when the Emergency Energy was delivered or, if
such party elects to have equivalent energy returned under different
conditions, it shall be returned in such amounts and at such times as,
the Operating Committee agrees will compensate the original supplying
party, for the difference in conditions.


                                              EXHIBIT II
                             AMENDED
                       SERVICE SCHEDULE B

                         ENERGY TRANSFER

SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1  This Service Schedule, being a part of an agreement dated as of
December 1, 1981, between Indianapolis Power & Light Company ("IPL") and
Hoosier Energy Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc. ("Hoosier") (the
"Agreement") shall become effective on the Interconnection Date as
defined in Article 9 of the Agreement and shall continue in effect until
termination of the Agreement.

SECTION 2 - TRANSFER ARRANGEMENT

2.1  In carrying out the interconnected operation of their respective
systems as provided for under the Agreement, energy being received by a
portion of one party's system from another portion of its system or to
the system of another interconnected company, may flow over the
transmission facilities of the other party as a natural result of the
physical and electrical characteristics of the interconnected network of
transmission lines to which the parties are connected.  Such flow of
energy may occur during periods when conditions of system operation are
normal or may occur during periods of emergency caused by the failure of
either sources of power or transmission facilities, or both.  In respect
to such flow of energy (hereinafter called "energy transfer") the parties
agree as follows:

     2.11      Such energy transfer over their respective transmission
               facilities shall be permitted whenever such transfer occurs;
               provided, that such energy transfer shall not be of such
               magnitude or duration as to affect adversely, or jeopardize
               the ability of, the party over whose system such energy
               transfers occur to render or accept service to or from
               companies with which it now has, or at any time hereafter may
               have contractual arrangements for the interchange of power or
               energy.

     2.12      The parties recognize that in carrying out the provisions of
               this Service Schedule, the above-described energy transfer,
               either during periods when conditions of system operation are
               normal or during periods of emergency, or both, may
               eventually require the installation of additional
               transmission facilities in order that such energy transfer
               may be properly controlled to the end that the ability of the
               party over whose system such energy transfers occur to meet
               its own requirements, as described under 2.11 above, is not
               affected adversely or jeopardized.  In the event the need for
               such additional transmission facilities becomes apparent to
               either of the parties during any term of this Service
               Schedule, upon written notice given by either party to the
               other party and as soon as practicable following such notice,
               the parties shall jointly reexamine conditions relating to
               Energy Transfer.  In such reexamination, if called for, the
               parties shall agree upon such additional transmission
               facilities as may be required to be installed, if any, and
               upon an equitable basis for bearing the cost of installing,
               maintaining and operating such facilities, if installed.

SECTION 3 - POWER AND ENERGY ACCOUNTING

3.1  The parties recognize that energy transfers as described under
Section 2 of this Service Schedule, except for such amounts of electrical
losses as may be incurred because of such energy transfers, are the
simultaneous acceptance and delivery of like amounts of power and energy
by and from the system of the party over whose system such energy transfers
occur.  Power and energy associated with energy transfers, including
electrical losses associated therewith, shall be accounted for
each clock-hour as provided for under Article 5 of the Agreement. Proper
consideration to such electrical losses will be in accordance with the
manner agreed upon by the Operating Committee.  It is understood by the
parties, however, that such electrical losses resulting from energy
transfers, to be taken as losses over and above the losses prevailing
under basic conditions agreed upon by the parties, shall be supplied
simultaneously by the party for whom such energy transfers are being
made.  The parties agree that initially such basic conditions will be
established as those that exist when the scheduled net delivery between
the systems of the parties, and between their respective systems and the
systems of other interconnected companies, is zero kilowatts.  It is
further understood that, from time to time, conditions may require the
establishment of different basic conditions for such purpose. Either
party by written notice given to the other party may call for a prompt
reexamination and reconsideration of matters pertinent to the
establishment of said basic conditions, whenever such reexamination
appears to be warranted, and the parties will thereupon agree to effect
such changes in the basic conditions, if any, that will equitably
compensate the parties for such losses.  Should such reexamination be
required, a statement will be prepared by the parties which shall include
in detail the amounts of energy delivered and received by the parties
that are associated with energy transfer and the amounts of electrical
losses associated therewith.

2.2  It is recognized that occasions will arise when transactions under
subsection 2.1 above will be impracticable although a party may have
electric energy (herein called "Non-Displacement Energy") which it is
willing to make available from surplus capacity from its own system or
from outside sources, or both and which can be utilized advantageously
for short intervals by the other party.  In such event, the party
desiring such receipt of energy shall notify the other party of the
extent to which it desires to obtain Non-Displacement Energy, and if the
other party, in its sole judgment, determines that Non-Displacement
Energy is available, schedules providing the period and extent of use
shall be mutually agreed upon.  Neither party shall be obligated to make
any Non-Displacement Energy available to the other.

SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

Economy Energy

3.1  The charge for Economy Energy purchased by either party from the
other shall be based on the principle that the purchasing party shall pay
the out-of-pocket cost of the supplying party such energy and that the
resulting savings to the purchasing party shall be equally shared by both
parties.

3.2  When Economy Energy is obtained from or delivered to a system
interconnected with either of the Parties which is not a signatory in the
Agreement ("Third Party"), payments among the participants in such a
transaction shall be based on the out-of-pocket costs of the supplying
party or Third Party providing the Energy and an allocation of the gross
savings, which are defined as the difference between (1) what the out-of-
pocket costs of the receiving party or Third Party would have been to
generate such Energy, and (2) the out-of-pocket costs of the supplying
party or Third Party providing the Energy.  Such allocation shall be made
as provided in subsection 3.21 and 3.22 hereinbelow.

     3.21      The transmitting party shall be paid (A) its cost of
               purchasing the Energy supplied, plus (B) its costs of any
               additional transmission losses incurred, plus (C) the greater
               of fifteen percent of the gross savings remaining after
               deducting all such payments for transmission losses or an
               amount up to 3.46 mills per kilowatthour of Energy received
               for transmission.

     3.22      The supplying party or Third Party shall be paid its out-
               of-pocket costs of providing the Energy, plus one-half of the
               gross savings remaining after deducting all payments made
               under subsection 3.21.

Non-Displacement Energy

3.3  Non-Displacement Energy delivered hereunder that is generated by
the supplying party's system shall be settled for either by return of
equivalent Energy or, at the option of the supplying party, by the
payment of the out-of-pocket costs of the supplying party generating such
Energy plus ten percent of such cost.  If equivalent Energy is returned,
it shall be returned at times when load conditions of the receiving party
are equivalent to the load condition of such party at the time the energy
was delivered or, different conditions, such energy shall be returned in
such amounts, to be agreed upon by the operating committee, as will
compensate for the difference in conditions.

3.4  Non-Displacement Energy delivered under subsection 2.2 above that is
purchased by the supplying party from another interconnected system at
the request of the receiving party shall be settled for by the payment of
100 percent of the amount paid to such Third Party, plus up to 3.46 mills
per kilowatthour (consisting of up to 2.46 mills per kilowatthour for a
transmission charge plus 1 mill per kilowatthour for difficult to
quantify energy related costs) plus any transmission losses.

"Agreement") shall become effective on the Interconnection Date as
defined in Article 9 of the Agreement and shall continue in effect until
termination of the Agreement.

SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

2.1  Either party, by giving the other party sufficient notice, may
reserve for periods of one or more days or weeks, such electric power
(herein called "Short Term Power") as the supplying party at that time
may have and is willing to supply as Short Term Power.  The party asked
to supply Short Term Power shall be the sole judge as to the amounts and
periods that it has electric power available that may be reserved by the
other party as Short Term Power.  As used herein, the term "week" shall
mean any seven consecutive days.

2.2  The party desiring to reserve Short Term Power shall specify in a
notice to the other party the number of kilowatts and the period for
which it desires to reserve such power and the desired delivery schedule
for such power.  The supplying party shall promptly acknowledge receipt
of such notice and, shall signify the extent of its ability and
willingness to supply power in accordance with the provisions of such
notice.  Any such notice or acknowledgement thereof initially may be
given orally; however if requested by either party, it shall be confirmed
in writing and such confirmation shall be forwarded not later than the
third day following the date such oral notice is given, excluding
Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.

2.3  During the period the Short Term Power has been reserved as
provided in Section 2.2 above, the supplying party shall deliver upon
call electric energy (hereincalled "Short Term Energy") to the other
party at the delivery point or points set forth in Section 4.01 of the
Agreement in amounts not to exceed the number of kilowatts reserved.
However, in the event conditions arise during such period which could not
have been reasonably foreseen at the time Short Term Energy was reserved
and such conditions would cause the delivery of said power to be
burdensome to the supplying party, said party shall have the right to
require the purchasing party to reduce for any portion of such period the
amount of such energy being taken to the amount specified by the
supplying party.  The purchasing party shall promptly comply with such
requirement of the supplying party.

                    LIMITED TERM POWER (FIRM)

SECTION 1 - DURATION

1.1  This Service Schedule, being a part of an agreement dated as of
December 1, 1981, between Indianapolis Power & Light Company ("IPL") and
Hoosier Energy Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc. ("Hoosier") (the
"Agreement") shall become effective on the Interconnection Date as
defined in Article 9 of the Agreement and shall continue in effect until
termination of the Agreement.

SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

2.1  Either party by giving the other party notice may reserve for
periods of not less than one (1) or more than twelve (12) months, such
electric power (hereincalled "Limited Term Power (Firm)") as the other
party may be willing to make available as Limited Term Power (Firm).  The
party asked to supply Limited Term Power (Firm) shall be the sole judge
as to the amounts and periods that it has electric power available that
may be reserved by the other party as Limited Term Power (Firm).

     2.11 To reserve Limited Term Power (Firm), the party desiring such

                       MODIFICATION NO. 4
                             TO THE
                    INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT
                             BETWEEN
               INDIANAPOLIS POWER & LIGHT COMPANY
                               AND
         HOOSIER ENERGY RURAL ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, INC.


THIS AMENDMENT made and entered into as of the 1st day of January, 1995
by Indianapolis Power & Light Company ("IPL"), being an Amendment to the
Interconnection Agreement between Hoosier Energy Rural Electric
Cooperative, Inc. ("Buyer") and IPL dated December 1, 1981 (the "Agreement").


                           WITNESSETH:


WHEREAS, IPL and Hoosier Energy Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc., entered
into the Agreement on December 1, 1981, which Agreement has been amended
from time to time;


WHEREAS, the Agreement provides for the sale of power and energy by IPL
under Service Schedules described as:

          Service Schedule A            Emergency Service
          Service Schedule C            Interchange Power
          Service Schedule D            Short Term Power
          Service Schedule E            Limited Term Power (Firm)
          Service Schedule F            Diversity Power


WHEREAS, the Agreement provides for the recovery of incremental costs or
"out-of-pocket" costs occasioned by the sale by IPL of electric energy;


WHEREAS, IPL has implemented its Emissions Constrained Dispatch Plan,
attached hereto;


WHEREAS, the rates for Emergency Service, Interchange Power, Short Term
Power, Limited Term Power (Firm), and Diversity Power, do not expressly
include the cost of replacing sulfur dioxide ("SO2") emission allowances
expended in order to provide such energy in compliance with Federal laws
governing SO2 emission;


WHEREAS, IPL desires to amend the Agreement to clarify recovery of out-
of-pocket costs occasioned by the sale of said energy as including the
recovery of the incremental cost of SO2 emission allowances;


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the terms and
conditions set forth herein; IPL desires to amend the Agreement as
follows:

Section 1.     Compensation for SO2 Emission Allowances.

The Buyer shall compensate IPL for the consumption of Sulfur Dioxide
Emissions Allowances ("SO2 Allowances") directly attributed to electric
energy sales by IPL to Buyer under the Service Schedules.  Such
compensation shall, at Buyer's option, be made by either supplying IPL
with the number of SO2 Allowances directly attributed to such energy
sales, or by reimbursing IPL for the incremental cost of such number of
SO2 Allowances, rounded to the nearest whole SO2 Allowance.


If Buyer opts to reimburse IPL in cash for SO2 Allowances associated with
Buyer's energy purchases for the month, the cash amount due at billing
will be determined by multiplying the number of SO2 Allowances attributed
to the sale by the incremental cost of the SO2 Allowances, as determined
in Section 2.2, at the time of the sale.


If Buyer opts to reimburse IPL in SO2 Allowances, Buyer will record or
transfer to IPL's account, the number of SO2 Allowances calculated below,
at the time cash settlement for the energy is due.  In all cases, Buyer
will transfer to IPL's account the number of SO2 Allowances due IPL for
calendar year no later than January 15 of the following year. "Transfer
to IPL's account" shall mean, for purposes of the Amendment, the transfer
by the USEPA of the requisite number of SO2 Allowances to IPL's Allowance
Tracking System account and the receipt by IPL of the Allowance Transfer
Confirmation.


Section 2.     Determination of SO2 Emission Allowances Due IPL.

     Section 2.1.   Number of SO2 Allowances

     The number of SO2 Allowances directly attributed to an energy sale
     made by IPL shall be determined for each hour, by determining the
     contribution from each of the unit(s) from which the energy sale is
     being made for that hour.  For each unit, the emission rate in
     pounds of SO2 per million Btu will be determined each month, from
     fuel sulfur content, control equipment performance, and continuous
     emissions monitoring data.  The emission rate and the unit heat
     rate will be used to determine the SO2 Allowances used per
     megawatt-hour ("MWH").  The energy from each unit attributable to
     the sale, and the SO2 Allowances per MWH for each unit, will be
     used to determine the number of SO2 Allowances attributable to the
     sale.


     Section 2.2 .  Cost of SO2 Allowances

     The incremental SO2 Allowance cost used to determine economic
     dispatch of IPL's generating units in any month, will also be the
     basis used to determine compensation for IPL's energy sales. The
     incremental SO2 Allowances cost, in dollars per ton of SO2, shall
     be determined each month and will be based on the Cantor Fitzgerald
     offer  price for SO2 Allowances, or if such is not available, the
     another nationally recognized SO2 Allowance trading market price or
     market price index, at the beginning of the month.  The SO2
     Allowance value may be changed at any time during the month to
     reflect the more current incremental cost, or market price, for SO2
     Allowances.  Buyer will be notified of the new SO2 Allowance value
     prior to dispatch of IPL energy to Buyer.


Section 3.     Effective Date.

This Amendment to the Agreement shall be made effective as of January 1,
1995.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, IPL has caused the foregoing Amendment to be signed
by its duly authorized officer, effective as of the date set forth above.

                                   John C. Berlier, Jr.
                                   Vice President
                                   Resource Planning and Rates

                        EMISSIONS CONSTRAINED DISPATCH PLAN
                             Effective January 1, 1995

Economic Dispatch is loading each generating unit so the lowest cost
generation is called upon first to generate the power needed, thereby
minimizing total electric energy generation cost.  Emissions Constrained
Dispatch is simply Economic Dispatch where the estimated value of the
SO2 allowances being consumed by a unit is included as a part of the
unit's cost of generation.  A lower emitting unit will reflect a
relatively lower emissions cost because it requires fewer sulfur dioxide
(SO2) allowances.

IPL's plan to implement Emissions Constrained Dispatch is to incorporate
SO2 allowance values into the existing Energy Management System (load
dispatching system), which economically dispatches IPL's generation.  As
the generation required (load) increases, the available unit with the
lowest incremental cost is dispatched to meet the increase.  As the
generation demanded decreases, the unit with the highest incremental cost
is dispatched to reduce its generation, thereby minimizing cost.<F1>

Currently, the Energy Management System uses incremental heat rates, along
with fuel and variable operation costs to determine the incremental cost of
generation on each unit in service.  Effective January 1, 1995, SO2
emissions related costs will be included in each unit's incremental cost
prior to the incremental costs being compared to make the unit dispatch.
The incremental SO2 value will be in units of dollars per million British
Thermal Units ($/MMBTU) and computed by the following guidelines:

        IPL plans to use EPA (Environmental Protection Agency)
        certifiable data for SO2 emission rates in conjunction with
        the incremental value of emission allowances to form the
        emissions dispatch cost in units of $/MMBTU.  Each
        generating unit affected by the Clean Air Act will have its
        own specific SO2 emissions data input into the Energy
        Management System at the beginning of each month.  That data
        will remain for the month unless projected coal deliveries
        for the month have an SO2 value that will change the current
        dispatch.  The Fuel Supply Organization will notify the System
        Operation Office of the projected coal delivery SO2 emission
        rate in #SO2/MMBTU, so that a correct So2 emission rate can
        be input into the Energy Management System.

        <F1>  Optimization of unit loadings in the Energy Management
System is constrained by equipment physical limitations such as maximum rate
of load pickup or maximum load reduction rate on a unit as well as
contrained by the maximum and minimum capability of the units.

        IPL's Treasury Organization will not less often than the 10th day
        of each month supply the IPL System Operation Office the incremental
        value of an emission allowance in units of dollars per ton of SO2
        based upon the Cantor Fitzgerald asking price for allowances, or
        other nationally recognized allowance trading market price, for use
        in IPL's emission constrained dispatch on a forward going basis.
        Beginning January 1, 1995, the allowance price that will be used
        for purposes of IPL's emissions constrained dispatch will be the
        asking price for allowances obtained from Cantor Fitzgerald on
        December 30, 1994.  The Treasury Organization will track the
        emission allowance market and if a significant change in
        allowance prices occurs within a given month, the Treasury
        Organization may provide an updated allowance price value to the
        IPL System Operation Office.  The updated allowance price will
        be entered into the Energy Management System and the economic
        dispatch algorithm will be updated accordingly.

The emissions cost will be added with the fuel and variable operating cost
to produce a total dispatch cost.  The total dispatch cost will be combined
with the incremental unit heat rate data to produce the total incremental
dispatch cost as calculated by the following formula:

        INCREMENTAL COST = (Fuel Cost + Emissions Value Divided By
                                Variable Operating Cost) X Incremental
                                Heat Rate

The dimensions for each of the variables is as follows:

        Emissions Value, $/MMBTU; Fuel Cost, $/MMBTU; Variable Operating
        Cost $/MMBTU; Incremental Heat Rate, MMBTU/MWH; Allowance Value,
        $/Allowance; Incremental Cost, $/MWH

The dispatch made using the total incremental cost, including SO2 emissions
related costs, will constitute IPL's Emissions Constrained Dispatch.

TEMPORARY TRANSMISSION USE

SECTION 1 - DURATION AND TERMINATION

1.1   This Service Schedule G, being part of Modification No. 3 to
the Agreement dated December 1, 1981 between Indianapolis Power &
Light Company ("IPL") and Hoosier Energy Rural Electric
Cooperative, Inc. ("Hoosier") as amended by Modification No. 1
dated June 1, 1982 and Modification No. 2 dated October 1, 1983
(the "1981 Agreement"), shall become effective on January 1, 1991
and shall continue in effect unless it is otherwise terminated in
accordance with this Service Schedule G or Modification No. 3.

1.2   Hoosier may elect to terminate Service Schedule G at any
time during its term.  If such election is made prior to December
31, 1995, Hoosier shall notify IPL at least 30 days in advance of
the desired termination date.  If such election is made after
December 31, 1995, Hoosier shall notify IPL at least 1 year in
advance of the desired termination date.

SECTION 2 - SERVICES TO BE RENDERED

2.1   IPL hereby represents that it has, and currently projects
that it will have, sufficient capacity in its transmission system
to provide Hoosier with the transmission service contemplated by
this Service Schedule G.  IPL hereby reserves and agrees to make
available to Hoosier, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.5
below, sufficient capacity in said transmission system to provide
for such transmission service subject, however, to the capacity of
such transmission system required to serve the actual load of
IPL's customers now and in the future.

2.2   IPL agrees to provide temporary transmission services to
Hoosier for the purpose of delivering up to 20 MW of power
(demand) and energy from any of the interconnection points between
IPL and Hoosier for each of the tap points described and referred
to in the 1981 Agreement as the Honey Creek and Mullinix Tap
Points ("Tap Points").  This temporary transmission service shall
be available at all times during the term of this Service Schedule
G except as stated in Section 2.5 of this Service Schedule.

2.3   Any power (demand) and energy delivered by IPL to the Tap
Points shall be simultaneously supplied to IPL from Hoosier at any
other interconnection point or points provided for in the 1981
Agreement.  The power and energy shall be adjusted to compensate
IPL for electrical losses incurred in the delivery of such power.
Any difference in power and energy delivered to Hoosier through
said Tap Points and that supplied by Hoosier to IPL shall be
settled for in accordance with Section 3.03 of the 1981 Agreement.

2.4   The parties shall plan, maintain and operate their
respective systems in accordance with sound engineering and
operating practice, so as to minimize the likelihood of
disturbance(s) originating in either party's system which might
cause impairment of the transmission service provided hereunder.

2.5   The Parties shall plan for continuous unrestricted operation
to the Tap Points at all times; provided, that either party may
interrupt or restrict service for necessary maintenance, system
emergency, or if either determines that its facilities may be
damaged due to excessive loadings caused by the transmission
service provided hereunder.  Should such interruptions or
restrictions occur, the parties shall cooperate to restore such
service to normal as soon as practicable.  Excessive loads are
current flows exceeding the normal facility ratings with all
facilities in service, or current flows exceeding emergency
facility ratings under contingency conditions.  Neither party
shall be responsible to the other party for damage or loss of
revenue caused by such restrictions or interruptions.  Excessive
loadings shall be verified by either metering records or mutually
agreed upon load flows.  Maintenance outages shall be coordinated
between the parties whenever possible.

2.6   IPL shall periodically conduct studies of its future system,
and if such studies indicate problems due to IPL's load growth
which may arise in the future due to the transmission service
provided hereunder, shall as soon as practicable, develop plans
and estimates of cost for the installation of any additional
equipment or facilities necessary to effect a long term solution
to such problem so that transmission services hereunder may be
reliably continued, and shall notify Hoosier of such studies and
plans.  IPL shall use its best efforts to provide Hoosier with a
three year advance notice of any impending problems.

Upon approval of long term remedial plans by Hoosier, IPL shall
proceed to install required facilities, and upon completion
thereof, Hoosier shall commence reimbursement to IPL of Hoosier's
proportionate share of costs involved in designing and installing
such facilities which shall be calculated as a function of
variables such as:

a)   Share of existing facilities utilized by each party, and;

b)   Timing of required capacity with and without Hoosier's power
transfers; and

c)   Useful life of new facilities, and;

d)   Remaining term of Service Schedule, and;

e)   Other consequential variables determined at the time when
excessive loadings are observed or mutually projected.

In the event Hoosier does not elect to participate in the remedial
plans prescribed above Hoosier may elect to continue service on a
restricted basis when necessary and on an unrestricted basis at
all other times.


SECTION 3 - COMPENSATION

3.1   Electric power measured in kilowatts delivered at the Tap
Points under this Service Schedule shall be billed at $0.92 per
kilowatt month.  This demand charge for use of IPL's transmission
facilities shall be on the maximum hourly demand in kilowatts,
measured in the calendar month of billing, and shall be adjusted
to compensate IPL for losses in the IPL system and in the
transformer banks used at the Tap Points.

             SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLAN AND TRUST
      AGREEMENT FOR A SELECT GROUP OF MANAGEMENT EMPLOYEES
      (AS AMENDED AND RESTATED EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1999)



     Pursuant to Section 12.01 of the Indianapolis Power & Light
Company Supplemental Retirement Plan and Trust Agreement for a Select Group
of Management Employees (the "Plan") which was originally executed on
November 1, 1988 by and between Indianapolis Power & Light Company, Inc.
(the "Company") and National City Bank, Indiana (the "Trustee") and last
amended and restated effective March 1, 1996, the Company hereby amends
and completely restates the Plan, effective as of January 1, 1999, as
follows:

                               WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, effective May 1, 1983, the Company established the Unfunded
Supplemental  Retirement Plan for a Select Group of Management Employees
(the "Prior Plan") which was designed to meet applicable exemptions under
Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3), 401(a)(1) and 4021(b)(6) of ERISA (as hereinafter
defined) and under Department of Labor Regulation Section 2520.104-23; and

     WHEREAS, in order to provide the active participants in the Prior Plan
with greater assurance that the benefits provided under such Prior Plan will
be duly made, the Company desires to establish a successor plan and trust
(the "Plan") for the active participants in the Prior Plan (and has
contemporaneously limited their participation in the Prior Plan to preclude
a duplication of benefits) and to transfer thereto sufficient assets to be
held therein and applied against the benefit obligations of the Company under
the terms of the Plan, until paid or returned in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement; and

     WHEREAS, in recognition of the management services and other benefits
provided to the Employer (as hereinafter defined) by the key employees who
are Participants (as hereinafter defined) under the Plan, it is the intention
of the Company to make contributions to the Plan in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement; and

     WHEREAS, the Plan is not intended to be a tax qualified plan under
Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code"), but is intended to meet and comply with the requirements of
ERISA and shall be interpreted accordingly to effect the intent of the
parties;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the services which have been and
shall be performed by such Plan Participants, of the premises and of the
mutual covenants herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby expressly acknowledged, the parties do hereby covenant and agree as
follows:

Participant's Service at the date of determination and the denominator of
which is the lesser of thirty (30) or the total Service such Participant
would have completed if his employment by the Employer had continued until
his attainment of the Normal Retirement Age; provided, however, that if the
Participant's employment with the Employer is terminated by reason of his
incurring a Total Disability, the fraction described above shall be one (1),
regardless of his Service at the date he incurs a Total Disability.

     Section  1.02.   Actuarial Equivalent.  The term "Actuarial Equivalent"
means the equivalent in value of the aggregate amounts expected to be paid
under different forms of payment under this Plan, on the basis of an assumed

Participant and a three (3) year age set back for the Participant's spouse.

     Section 1.03.  Adjusted Accrued Benefit.  The term "Adjusted Accrued
Benefit" means the Accrued Benefit of each Participant after it is adjusted
in accordance with Section 4.04(a) to reflect any Tax Distributions made to
such Participant and in accordance with Section 4.04(b) to reflect any
distributions made under Section 4.05 and not recontributed to the Plan.

     Section 1.04.  Adjusted Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefit.
The term "Adjusted Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefit" means the
Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefit of a surviving spouse of a
deceased Participant after it is adjusted in accordance with Section 4.04(a)
to reflect any Tax Distributions made to such deceased Participant or to such

     Section 1.10.  Compensation.  The term "Compensation" means the base
salary received by a Participant from the Employer for services rendered to
the Employer and bonus payments made to the Participant under the IPALCO
Enterprises, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan; provided, however, that the term
"Compensation" shall also include any current compensation deferred by a
Participant under any qualified or nonqualified plan sponsored or maintained
by the Employer or under any agreement entered into between a Participant and
the Employer, including the IPALCO Enterprises, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan;
provided, further, that any deferred compensation included by the immediate
preceding proviso shall be included as Compensation at the time of the
deferral and not again included as Compensation at the time of payment to the
Participant.  For purposes of determining a Participant's Compensation for
a calendar month and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, each bonus paid under the IPALCO Enterprises, Inc. Annual Incentive
Plan shall be deemed paid in equal amounts over each of the twelve (12)
calendar months occurring in the calendar year for which such bonus relates
(or, if the Participant was not employed for the entire twelve (12) months of
the calendar year, over each month occurring in the calendar year for which
the bonus relates and during which he completed at least one (1) Hour of

     Section 1.15.  Maximum Benefit Liability.  The term "Maximum Benefit
Liability" means with respect to each Participant Account established
hereunder the lesser of (a) or (b) below:

          (a)  The greater of:

               (i)   the present value (as of the date of determination) of
          the Vested Portion of a Participant's Adjusted Accrued Benefit (or,
          if the payment of monthly benefits has already commenced, the
          remaining payments) due under Article IV to the Participant for
          whom such Participant Account is established or, if applicable, his
          surviving spouse, and

               (ii)  with respect to a married Participant or the surviving
          spouse of a deceased Participant, the present value (as of the date
          of determination) of the Adjusted Preretirement Surviving Spouse
          Death Benefit (or, if the payment of death benefits has already
          commenced, the remaining  payments) due under Article V to the
          surviving spouse of the Participant for whom such Participant
          Account is established.

          (b) The present value (as of the date of determination) of the
     Vested Portion of a Participant's or, if applicable, his surviving
     spouse's Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit (or, if the payment of monthly
     benefits has already commenced, the remaining payments) due under
     Article IV to the Participant or, if applicable, his surviving spouse
     for whom such Participant Account is established.

In calculating the Maximum Benefit Liability as of a determination date, the
following rules are applicable:

          (c) Any reductions in the Accrued Benefits and Preretirement
     Surviving Spouse Death Benefits of Participants or their surviving
     spouses, where applicable, which are to be made as of the date of
     determination under Section 4.04 shall be given effect, whether or
     not the Tax Distribution payments (or distributions of Available Net
     Income not recontributed under Section 4.05) attributable to such
     reduction have been made as of the date of calculation; provided,
     however, that if such Tax Distribution payment is not ultimately made
     by the Company under Section 4.03 (or such distribution of Available
     Net Income is not ultimately made under Section 4.05), the reduction
     shall not be given effect in any calculations of the Maximum Benefit
     Liability of a Participant's Accrued Benefit or Preretirement Surviving
     Spouse Death Benefit which are made after the due date of the Tax
     Distribution payment (or distribution of Available Net Income); and

          (d)   The Participant's Adjusted Accrued Benefit and Adjusted
     Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefits shall be calculated
     based on the Participant's Compensation and Service at the date of
     determination and, if the Participant is less than age sixty-five
     (65) at the date of determination, shall be calculated based on
     the Company Retirement Plan benefit, payable at age sixty-five (65),
     accrued on the date of determination.

          (e)  Once a Participant reaches age sixty-five (65) or he or, if
     applicable, his surviving spouse commences pay status under the Plan,
     the Maximum Benefit Liability shall be determined based on Subsection
     (b) of this Section and without regard to Subsection (a) of this Section
     even if it results in a greater amount than the amount determined under
     Subsection (a) of this Section.

          (f)  Unless a Participant or, if deceased, his Surviving Spouse
     elects under Section 4.06 to receive the present value of the
     Participant's Adjusted Accrued Benefit or  Adjusted Preretirement
     Surviving Spouse Death Benefits, whichever is applicable, in a single
     lump sum payment, the Maximum Benefit Liability shall be determined
     without regard to the amount necessary to fund the present value of
     such Benefits in a single lump sum payment; provided, however, that
     upon the Participant or, if applicable, his Surviving Spouse electing
     to receive payments in the form of a single lump sum in accordance with
     Section 4.06, the Maximum Benefit Liability shall be recalculated no
     later than the fifteenth (15th) calendar day immediately following the
     date of the Participant's termination of employment with the Employers
     or, if later, from the date on which the election is received by the
     Company.

For purposes of making the calculation of present value, the present value
discount rate shall be eight percent (8%), and the mortality assumption
shall be computed in accordance with the 1983 Group Annuity Mortality Table;
provided, however, that for purposes of making a calculation of the required
lump sum amount to be paid under Section 4.06, the applicable interest rate
shall be equal to the product of:

          (g)  the average annual rate of interest on thirty (30) year
     Treasury securities for the twelve (12) month period immediately

sixty-five (65) because of his not meeting the requirements for early
retirement under the Company Retirement Plan and his employment with the
Employers is terminated before his attainment of age sixty-five (65), his
Company Retirement Plan benefit offset under this Section shall be equal to
the monthly amount payable at the later of his attainment of age fifty-five
(55) or the date on which his employment with the Employers is terminated on
a single life basis which is the Actuarial Equivalent to the monthly amount
payable to him at age sixty-five (65) on a single life basis under the
Company Retirement Plan.

       Section 3.03.   Special Monthly Supplemental Pension Benefits.  From
time to time the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, may provide
for alternative supplemental pension benefits under this Section 3.03 for any
Senior Executive Officer or Other Executive Officer in lieu of, and (in some
cases) not in addition to, the benefits described in Section 3.01 or Section
3.02,  whichever Section is applicable, because of special circumstances
relating to such Executive's employment with the Employer.  If the
Compensation Committee takes action to add new Participants or to modify the
benefits of current Participants, the action shall designate the name of the
individual and the applicable benefit to be provided for such individual. If
the benefits provided under this Section are offset by the Company Retirement
Plan benefit, the offsets shall be calculated consistent with and in
accordance with the manner the offsets are determined under Sections 3.01 and
3.02.

                                ARTICLE IV

                    PAYMENT OF RETIREMENT BENEFITS

     Section 4.01.  Entitlement to Retirement Benefits.  A Participant who
retires or otherwise terminates his employment with the Employer for reasons
other than his death shall be entitled to receive monthly supplemental
pension benefits under this Plan only if:

          (a)  his employment with the Employer terminates on or after his
     attainment of the Normal Retirement Age,

          (b)   his employment with the Employer terminates by reason of his
     incurring a Total Disability, or

          (c)   his employment with the Employer terminates after his
     completion of at least one (1) Year of Service.

The  amount of the monthly supplemental pension benefits to which an eligible
Participant is entitled upon his retirement or other termination of
employment shall be equal to the Vested Portion of his Post-Tax Adjusted
Benefit; provided, however, that the amount of a Participant's Post-Tax
Adjusted Benefit shall be redetermined each January 1; provided, further,
that under no circumstances may the Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit payable to a
Participant be less than the Vested Portion of his Adjusted Accrued Benefit
as determined on February 29, 1996.  The non-Vested Portion of a
Participant's Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit shall be governed by Section 4.02.
The monthly payments shall begin on the first (1st) calendar day of the
month coinciding with or next following the date on which a Participant
attains his Normal Retirement Age or, if later, the date his employment with
the Employer is terminated and shall continue through the month in which his
death occurs; provided, however, that if a Participant's employment with
the Employer is terminated before his attainment of the Normal Retirement
Age, he may elect with the consent of the Company to have his benefits begin
on the first (1st) calendar day of the month following the date on which his
employment with the Employer is terminated or, if later, the first (1st) day
of the calendar month immediately following his attainment of age fifty-five
(55).  If benefit payments to a Participant begin before his attainment of
the Normal Retirement Age, the amount of such Participant's monthly
supplemental pension benefits shall be reduced to the extent and in the same
manner as such payments would be reduced if made from the Company Retirement
Plan; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything contained in this
Section to the contrary, a Participant:

          (a)  who is:

                (i)  a Senior Executive Officer or

               (ii)  an Other Executive Officer specifically designated by
          the Compensation Committee, and

          (b)  who at the date of his employment termination with the
     Employer is at least age fifty-five (55) and has completed at least
     thirty (30) years of Service shall be eligible to elect the immediate
     commencement of his monthly supplemental pension benefits without
     reduction; provided, further, that a Participant whose combined age and
     Service at the date of his employment termination with the Employer is
     at least eighty-five (85) and who has not as of his employment
     termination date reached age sixty-two (62) shall under no circumstances
     have a reduction in his monthly supplemental pension benefit greater
     than twenty-five one-hundredths (0.25) for each calendar month in which
     the benefit commencement date precedes the date on which the Participant
     would have reached age sixty-two (62).  If a Participant is married at
     the date his benefit payments are to commence and notwithstanding
     anything contained in this Plan to the contrary, his monthly benefits
     shall be paid in the form of an actuarially equivalent joint and
     survivor annuity determined in the same manner as the Joint and Survivor
     Annuity Option under Section 205.50 of the Company Retirement Plan,
     unless such Participant, with the written consent of his spouse
     witnessed by a Notary Public, elects not to have his benefits paid in
     such form.

     Payment of benefits under this Section 4.01 shall be made in accordance
with and consistent with the requirements set forth in Section 205 of ERISA;
provided, however, that subject to the applicable spousal consent
requirements contained in Section 205 of ERISA, a Participant may elect for
his benefits to be paid in any actuarially equivalent form of payment which
is available under the Company Retirement Plan (other than a single lump
sum payment).

     Section 4.02.  Non-Vested Benefits.  If a Participant's employment with
the Employer is terminated before his completion of at least five (5) years
of Service, before his attainment of his Normal Retirement Age and not by
reason of his incurring a Total Disability, such Participant shall only be
entitled to the Vested Portion of his Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit, the
non-Vested Portion of his Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit shall be forfeited and
the portion of his Participant Account attributable to the non-Vested Portion
of his Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit shall be reallocated as provided in Section
7.05; provided, however, that if such Participant subsequently returns to
work for the Employer, the non-Vested Portion of his Post-Tax Adjusted
Benefit shall be immediately reinstated, his Participant Account shall be
reestablished and funded in accordance with Section 6.02 and he shall be
entitled to receive monthly supplemental pension benefits upon his subsequent
termination of employment with the Employer to the extent otherwise provided
under this Plan, less any benefits already paid to him under this Plan before
his reemployment with the Employer.

     Section 4.03.  Tax Distribution Payments.  On or before December 20 of
each calendar year in which a Participant or, if applicable, his surviving
spouse is required to take amounts into income for Federal income tax
purposes by reason of his participation in, or eligibility for benefits
(including benefits received under an annuity contract purchased in
accordance with Article X) under this Plan, the Company shall make a Tax
Distribution payment to each Participant or, if applicable, to the surviving
spouse of each deceased Participant equal to the product of:

          (a)  the amount (excluding amounts paid by the Company under this
     Section) which such Participant or, if applicable, his surviving spouse
     is required to recognize as income for Federal income tax purposes by
     reason of his participation in, or eligibility for benefits under, this
     Plan in such calendar year; and

          (b)  the  Participant's marginal individual composite Federal,
     Indiana and Marion County income tax rate (based on the Participant's
     estimated aggregate Compensation from the Employer during the calendar
     year and taking into account the deductibility for Federal income tax
     purposes of state and local income taxes, if then allowable, and, except
     as otherwise provided below, without regard to Section 1(g) of the Code)
     in effect for the calendar year during which the amount described in (a)
     above is required to be recognized as income by such Participant; and

          (c)   one hundred percent (100%) divided by the amount by which
     one hundred percent (100%) exceeds the rate in (b) above expressed as a
     percent.

The amount of the required Tax Distribution payments shall be certified to
the Company on or before December 10 of each calendar year by the actuary
designated by the Company to calculate the Maximum Benefit Liability under
Section 1.15.  For purposes of determining the amount of each Tax
Distribution payment, the amount described in (a) above shall be estimated
by assuming that each Participant, if applicable, shall continue his
employment with the Employer for the remainder of the calendar year, each
Participant's rate of Compensation shall remain unchanged for the remainder
of such calendar year and, if applicable, that the Trust Fund (including the
portion of the Trust Fund attributable to Company contribution made in such
calendar year) shall earn investment income, both realized and unrealized,
for the period of October 31 to December 31 (or, with respect to Company
contributions made after October 31 but before December 31, for the
remainder of period beginning on the date of contribution and ending on
such December 31) of such calendar year at the same rate of return earned
by the Trust Fund for the Plan Year ending on October 31 of such calendar
year; provided, however, that the assumed rate of interest to be applied
against the initial Company contribution made under Section 6.01 shall be
ten percent (10%).  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, if before November 1 of a calendar year a Participant or, if
applicable, his surviving spouse files a statement with the Company
certifying that to the best of his or her knowledge all or a portion of his
or her taxable income by reason or his or participation in this Plan shall be
subject to the additional Federal income tax under Section 1(g) of the Code
and provides the Company with information which will enable the actuary
designated by the Company to calculate the additional Federal income tax
under Section 1(g) of the Code resulting from his participation in this
Plan, including his or her estimated taxable income for such calendar year,
the table in Section 1 of the Code to be used by the Participant or, if
applicable, his surviving spouse for his Federal income tax return for such
calendar year and the number of personal exemptions that the Participant or,
if applicable, his surviving spouse intends to claim on his or her Federal
income tax return for such calendar year, the Company shall have its
actuary recalculate the amount of the Tax Distribution payment required
under this Section based on the information provided by the Participant or,
if applicable, his surviving spouse, so that the amount of the Tax
Distribution payment made to the Participant or, if applicable, his surviving
spouse shall equal the estimated tax liability of the Participant or, if
applicable, his surviving spouse for such calendar year by reason of his
participation in this Plan; provided, however, that any adjustments in the
Tax Distribution payments under this sentence shall be limited to adjustments
reflecting the applicability of Section 1(g) of the Code.  If the amount
described in (a) above which was estimated for purposes of calculating the
amount of any Tax Distribution payment to a Participant or, if applicable,
his surviving spouse is less than the actual (a) amount, the Company shall
pay to such Participant or, if applicable, his surviving spouse as soon as
practicable after the end of such calendar year and in no event later than
the March 15 immediately following such calendar year during which such
amount was recognized as income an amount equal to the product of:

          (d)  the amount by which the actual (a) amount exceeded the
      estimated (a) amount; and

          (e)  the rate described in (b) above; and

          (f)  one hundred percent (100%) divided by the amount by which
      one hundred percent (100%) exceeds the marginal individual composite
      Federal, Indiana and Marion County income tax rate expressed as a
      percent (based on the Participant's estimated aggregate Compensation
      from the Employer during the calendar year and taking into account the
      deductibility for Federal income tax purposes of state and local income
      taxes, if then allowable) in effect for the calendar year during which
      such additional Tax Distribution payment is to be made.

If the amount described in (a) above which was estimated for purpose of
calculating the amount of any Tax Distribution payment to a Participant or,
if applicable, his surviving spouse is greater than the actual (a) amount,
the amount of the Tax Distribution payment shall be recalculated by
substituting for the estimated (a) amount the actual (a) amount, and the
amount by which the Tax Distribution payment exceeds the recalculated
amount shall be offset against future Tax Distribution payments due until
exhausted.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Tax
Distribution payments shall not be made by the Company to a married
Participant without the written consent of his spouse witnessed by a Notary
Public.

     Section 4.04.  Reduction in Accrued Benefit and Preretirement Surviving
Spouse Death Benefit.  Each Participant's Accrued Benefit and Preretirement
Surviving Spouse Death Benefit shall be adjusted as follows:

     (a)   As of the Effective Date and as of each Valuation Date, a
Participant's Accrued Benefit and the Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death
Benefit payable to the surviving spouse of a deceased Participant who dies
while still employed by the Employer shall be reduced to the extent provided
below to reflect the value of each Tax Distribution payment made under
Section 4.03 attributable to his initial Accrued Benefit and the initial
Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefit at the Effective Date and
attributable to increases in the amount of his vested Accrued Benefit or
Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefit.  The amount of the Accrued
Benefit and Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefit reduction to be
effected as of the Effective Date shall be determined by multiplying the
Accrued Benefit of a Participant or, if applicable, Preretirement Surviving
Spouse Death Benefit as of the Effective Date which such Participant or, if
applicable, his surviving spouse is required to recognize as income for
Federal income tax purposes in 1988 by a percentage equal to the rate
described in Section 4.03(b) or, if the amount of the 1988 Tax Distribution
payment for the Participant or, if applicable, his surviving spouse was
recalculated in accordance with Section 4.03 based on tax information
provided by the Participant or, if applicable, his surviving spouse, a
percentage equal to the individual composite Federal, Indiana and Marion
County income tax rate used in recalculating the amount of the Tax
Distribution payment under Section 4.03 in 1988 in effect on the Effective
Date.  The amount of each Accrued Benefit and Preretirement Surviving Spouse
Death Benefit reduction for each Valuation Date shall be determined by
multiplying any increase in the Adjusted Accrued Benefit of a Participant or,
if applicable, Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefit which as of the
preceding Valuation Date has not yet been recognized as income for Federal
income tax purposes and which such Participant or, if applicable, his
surviving spouse is required to recognize as income for Federal income tax
purposes in the calendar year during which such  Valuation Date falls by a
percentage equal to the rate described in Section 4.03(b) in effect on the
Valuation Date as of which the adjustment under this Section is made or, if
the amount of the Tax Distribution payment made in the calendar year during
which the Valuation Date occurs for the Participant or, if applicable, his
surviving spouse was recalculated in accordance with Section 4.03 based on
tax information provided by the Participant or, if applicable, his surviving
spouse, a percentage equal to the individual composite Federal, Indiana and
Marion County income tax rate used in recalculating the amount of the Tax
Distribution payment under Section 4.03 for such calendar year.  No reduction
in the Accrued Benefits and Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefits of
a Participant or, if applicable, his surviving spouse shall be made under
this Section with respect to Tax Distribution payments which are not
attributable to increases in the Accrued Benefits or Preretirement Surviving
Spouse Death Benefits.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, if the Tax Distribution payments required under Section 4.03
attributable to such Participant's Accrued Benefit or Preretirement Surviving
Spouse Death Benefit, or increase therein, are not timely paid by the
Company, the amount of the reduction in such Participant's Accrued Benefit
or Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefit shall be retroactively
reinstated as of the date on which the reduction was made.

     (b)   In the event a Participant fails to recontribute to the Plan the
entire amount of Available Net Income distributed to him under Section 4.05
with respect to a calendar year, his Accrued Benefit and Preretirement
Surviving Spouse Death Benefit shall be reduced as of the date such
distribution is treated under Section 4.05 as having been made to him by an
amount equal to the product of:

          (i)    his Accrued Benefit (or Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death
     Benefit, as the case may be) as of the December 31 Valuation Date of the
     calendar year to which the distribution of Available Net Income relates,
     but before any adjustment has been made under Section 4.04(a) with
     respect to such calendar year;

     times

          (ii)   a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of
     Available Net Income distributed to the Participant (and not
     recontributed by him to the  Plan) and the denominator of which is the
     amount of his Participant Account that has, as of the date of
     distribution, been taxed to the Participant for federal income tax
     purposes;

provided, however, that a Participant's Accrued Benefit and Preretirement
Surviving Spouse Death Benefit shall not be reduced under this Section
4.04(b) below the Adjusted Accrued Benefit and Adjusted Preretirement
Surviving Spouse Death Benefit accrued by that Participant as of October 31,
1992 without regard to this Section 4.04(b).

     Section 4.05.  Distribution and Recontribution of Income.  The
Administrator shall, as of each January 1 (or the first business day
thereafter if January 1 falls on a weekend), distribute to each Participant
the entire amount of that Participant's Available Net Income for the
immediately preceding calendar year; provided, however, that the amount of
distribution to which a Participant shall be entitled under this Section 4.05
shall be reduced (but not below zero (0)) by the amount of monthly pension
benefits paid to that Participant under this Plan during that immediately
preceding calendar year.  Each Participant to whom a distribution is made
under the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have immediately
recontributed such distribution to his Participant Account unless such
Participant elects (by completing, signing and delivering the appropriate
form to the Administrator on the date such distribution is made) to receive
such distribution in a single lump sum cash  payment.  A Participant who
elects to receive the entire amount of his Available Net Income in a single
lump sum cash payment shall receive a distribution of such amount as soon
after the Administrator receives his election as is administratively
feasible (but no later than sixty-five (65) days after the end of the
immediately preceding calendar year) and shall have his Adjusted Accrued
Benefit and Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefit and his Post-Tax
Adjusted Benefit reduced in accordance with Section 4.04(b).   For all
purposes of this Plan, any distribution under the preceding sentence shall
be treated as having been made on January 1 (or the first business day
thereafter if January 1 falls on a weekend) regardless of when the
Participant actually receives a lump sum  payment of such distribution.
The Trustee may, in its sole discretion, elect each year on the appropriate
Internal Revenue Service form to have each distribution under this Section
4.05 treated as having been made in the taxable year of the Trust Fund that
ends within sixty-five (65) days prior to the date on which such distribution
is actually made.

     Section 4.06.  One-Time Lump Sum Distribution Election.  In lieu of
receiving the monthly retirement benefits otherwise payable under this
Article IV or, if applicable, benefits payable to his Surviving Spouse under
Article V, a Participant who has completed at least one (1) Hour of Service
on or after January 1, 1999 or, if applicable, his Surviving Spouse shall, on
a one-time basis, be entitled to receive the present value of his Post-Tax
Adjusted Benefit in a single lump sum payment.  The lump sum election must be
made within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of the Participant's
termination of employment with the Employers or, if applicable, the
Participant's death.  The lump sum payment shall be required to be made
within thirty (30) calendar days of the date on which the election is
received by the Company.

                             ARTICLE V

                      MONTHLY DEATH BENEFITS

     If any Participant shall die while still employed by the Employer, such
deceased Participant's surviving spouse, if any, shall be entitled to receive
monthly death benefits ("Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefits")
under this Plan equal to fifty percent (50%) of such deceased Participant's
average monthly Compensation with respect to the last thirty-six (36)
consecutive months (or, if lesser, the deceased Participant's entire period
of employment with the Employer) ending on or before his death, less the
monthly benefits payable to such deceased Participant's surviving spouse for
that month under the Company Retirement Plan; provided, however, that the
monthly Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefits shall be reduced,
where applicable, so that they are actuarially equivalent to the monthly
death benefits that would be payable for the life of an individual who is the
same age and sex as the Participant at the date of his death; provided,
further, that the amount of the monthly Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death
Benefits shall be adjusted to a Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit (as determined in
accordance with Section 1.21).  For purposes of determining actuarial
equivalency under this Article V, a seven percent (7%) interest assumption
and the 1971 Group Annuity Mortality Table shall be used.  The monthly
payments shall begin on the first (1st) calendar day of the month coinciding
with or next following a Participant's death and shall continue through the
month in which the surviving spouse's death occurs.  Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Article V to the contrary, the surviving spouse
of a deceased Participant who immediately before his death met the
requirements for benefits under Section 4.01 shall be entitled to a
qualified preretirement survivor annuity (as such term is defined in Section
205(e) of ERISA) with respect to such deceased Participant's Adjusted
Accrued Benefit in lieu of the monthly death benefits otherwise provided
under this Article if payment in such form would result in a greater monthly
benefit to such surviving spouse.


                            ARTICLE VI

                  CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE TRUST FUND

     Section  6.01.  Initial Company Contribution.  On or before December 10,
1988, the Company contributed to the Trust Fund with respect to each
Participant Account established hereunder as of the Effective Date an amount
equal to the Maximum Benefit Liability of such Participant Account
(determined as of the Effective Date).

     Section  6.02.  Annual Company Contributions.  The Maximum Benefit
Liability for each Participant Account established hereunder shall be
re-computed as of each October 31.   If the balance credited to a Participant
Account as of any October 31 is less than the Maximum Benefit Liability of
such Participant Account as of such date after the allocation of income and
the reallocation of excess Participant Account balances are completed for
such Valuation Date under Sections 7.04 and 7.05 respectively, the Company
shall within forty (40) calendar days after such October 31 contribute to the
Trust Fund the amount of the deficiency. In addition, the Company shall fund
within fifteen (15) calendar days any increase in the Maximum Benefit
Liability of a Participant Account as a result of a lump sum election made
under Section 4.06.

     Section 6.03.  Additional  Company  Contributions.  The Company may
at any time or from time to time make additional contributions of cash or
other property to the Trust Fund.

       Section 6.04.  Form of Contribution.  The Company's contributions
under Sections 6.01, 6.02 and 6.03 shall be paid directly by the Company to
the Trustee in cash or, at the option of the Company, in any other form
permissible under ERISA and acceptable to the Trustee; provided, however,
that the Company shall be permitted to meet all or any portion of its funding
requirements by transferring to the Trust Fund insurance policies insuring
the life of one (1) or more Participants in which case the value of the
insurance policies shall be determined based on their respective cash
surrender values.


                            ARTICLE VII

                    ESTABLISHMENT OF TRUST FUND


     Section 7.01. Trust Fund.  The Trustee shall hold all assets contributed
to, or earned by it, under the terms and conditions of this Plan and subject
to applicable  requirements under ERISA.

     Section 7.02.  Establishment of Participant Accounts.  The Trustee shall
establish and maintain a Participant Account for each Participant.  The
Participant Accounts as established hereunder shall be adjusted as provided
in this Plan.  Payment of benefits under Article V and Section 4.01 shall be
charged against the Participant Account of the Participant for whom the
payments are attributable.  The maintenance of the Participant Accounts is
for accounting purposes only, and a segregation of Trust Fund assets shall
not be required.  Any insurance policies held by the Trust Fund in accordance
with this Plan shall be commingled with the other assets of the Trust Fund
and shall not be credited to the Participant Account of the Participant on
whose life the policy is based.

     Section 7.03.  Allocation of Contributions.  Any contributions made
pursuant to Sections 6.01 and 6.02 of this Plan shall be credited to the
Participants Accounts upon which the contribution was based; provided,
however, that if the amount of the Company contribution is less than the
aggregate required contribution for the Participant Accounts for which the
contribution relates, the amount of the contribution to be allocated to each
Participant Account shall be determined by multiplying the amount of the
contribution by a  fraction, the numerator of which is the required
contribution for such Participant Account at the date of contribution and
the denominator of which is the aggregate required contributions for all
Participants Accounts (for which the contribution relates) at the date of
contribution; provided, further, that if the amount of Company contribution
is greater than the aggregate required contributions for all Participant
Accounts, the amount of the excess shall be allocated proportionately among
all Participant Accounts in accordance with the respective Maximum Benefit
Liabilities of such Participant Accounts as of the Valuation Date for which
the contribution relates.

     Section 7.04.  Valuations.  As of each Valuation Date, the Trustee
shall adjust the Participant Accounts to reflect contributions,
distributions, income earned, expenses not paid by the Company, increases or
decreases in the value of the Trust Fund assets and all other transactions
since the last preceding Valuation Date.  Any income or losses with respect
to the Trust Fund and appreciation or depreciation in Trust Fund assets shall
be allocated proportionally among all Participant Accounts in accordance with
the value of such Participant Accounts at the last preceding Valuation Date;
provided, however, that for purposes of these allocations, each Participant
Account shall be decreased by fifty percent (50%) of any distributions from
such Participant Account under Article V and under Section 4.01 since the
last preceding Valuation Date; provided, further, that gains or losses from
the sale or exchange of capital assets shall be treated as items of income or
loss and shall be allocated to Participant Accounts accordingly.

     Section 7.05.   Reallocation of Excess Participant Account Balances.  If
any Participant Account is liquidated because payments from such Participant
Account have been made in full or because the Participant on whose behalf
the Participant Account was established has terminated his employment with
the Employer before meeting the vesting requirements described in Section
4.01, the entire remaining balance in the liquidated Participant Account
shall be re-allocated as of such Valuation Date as follows:

          (a)  first, to the extent that other Participant Accounts on such
     Valuation Date have balances less than their Maximum Benefit
     Liabilities, the amount available for reallocation under this Section
     shall be re-allocated proportionally among the Participant Accounts not
     fully funded based on the respective amount of the deficiency of each
     such Participant Account at such Valuation Date; and

          (b)  second, any remaining amount to be re-allocated under this
     Section shall be allocated proportionally among all outstanding
     Participant Accounts based on their Maximum Benefit Liabilities at such
     Valuation Date.

     Section 7.06.  Payment of Expenses.  The Trustee shall be entitled to
receive such reasonable annual compensation for its services as shall be
agreed upon between the Company and the Trustee.   The Trustee shall also be
entitled to receive payment of all reasonable and necessary expenses in
administering the affairs of the Trust Fund including, without limitation,
all expenses which may be incurred in connection with the establishment and
administration of the Trust Fund, the employment of such administrative,
legal, accounting, actuarial or other expert and clerical assistance as the
Trustee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or appropriate in the
performance of its duties, unless the Company elects to pay such
compensation or expenses.  Any compensation or expenses for which the
Trustee is entitled to payment or reimbursement under this Section shall be
paid out of the Trust Fund to the fullest extent then permitted under ERISA,
unless the Company elects to pay such compensation or expenses.

     Section 7.07.  Accounting and Record Keeping.  The Trustee shall keep
accurate and detailed accounts of all investments, receipts, disbursements
and other transactions relating to each Participant Account, and all such
records shall be open to inspection and audit at all reasonable times by any
person designated by the Company.  As soon as practicable after each
Valuation Date, the Trustee shall file with the Company a written report for
each Participant Account setting forth all gains or losses (both realized
and unrealized) and other transactions relating to the Trust Fund since the
last preceding Valuation Date.  As soon as practicable after each Valuation
Date, the Trustee shall provide each Participant with a statement of the
balance credited to his Participant Account at such Valuation Date.

      Section 7.08.  Limitation on Liability.  As long as the Trustee has
performed its duties and met its obligations pursuant to the terms and
conditions of this Plan, it shall have no liability whatsoever to pay any
claims for benefits or expenses or other payments authorized hereunder from
any Participant Accounts, if the assets of such Participant Account shall at
any time be depleted.  Except as otherwise provided by ERISA, the duties and
responsibilities of the Trustee shall be governed solely by the terms and
conditions of this Plan, and any amendments thereto.

any action in accordance with the opinion of such counsel.  The Company
agrees, to the fullest extent then permitted by law, to indemnify and hold
the Trustee harmless from and against any liability which the Trustee may
incur in the administration of the Trust Fund, unless such liability arises
from the Trustee's willful breach of the provisions of this Plan.

     Section 7.10.  Litigation.  The Trustee shall not be required to
commence or defend any litigation or dispute arising in connection with this
Plan, unless the Trustee is first indemnified by the Company against its
prospective costs, expenses and liability, and the Company hereby agrees to
indemnify the Trustee for any such costs, expenses and liability.

     Section 7.11.  Waiver of Bond.  The Trustee shall not be required to
give bond or any other security for the faithful performance of its duties
under this Plan, except such as may be required by a law which prohibits the

     (e)  To  exercise all rights, privileges, options and elections with

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, having capital and surplus of at least
fifty million dollars ($50,000,000).  Any such successor Trustee shall have
the same powers and duties as those conferred upon the initial Trustee

instrument addressed to the Company.  Upon written notice from the Company of
the acceptance of such appointment by the successor Trustee, the Trustee

and without action on the part of the Company; provided, however, that such

Indiana to undertake the duties of the Trustee hereunder.

or Preretirement Surviving Spouse Death Benefits under this Plan have been
paid in full or satisfied by the purchase and delivery of single premium

     Section 11.01.  Delegation of Responsibility.  The Administrator may
delegate duties involved in the administration of this Plan to the

determinations as to the right of any person to a  benefit.  Any denial by
the Company of a claim for benefits under this Plan by a Participant or by
any deceased Participant's surviving spouse shall be stated in writing by the
Company and delivered or mailed within ninety (90) calendar days to the
Participant or to such deceased Participant's surviving spouse; and such

                           MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 12.01.  Amendment or Termination of Plan.  This Plan may be
amended, modified, supplemented in any respect or terminated by action of the

imprudent by the Compensation Committee as a result of changes in the law or
other circumstances outside of the control of the Company; provided, however,
that no amendment, modification, supplement or termination of this Plan shall
have the effect of:

           (a)  discontinuing, reducing or eliminating:

                (1)    the Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit of a Participant or, if
           applicable, his surviving spouse, or

                (2)   any optional form of distribution permitted under this
           Plan;

          (b)  substantially increasing the duties of the Trustee without its

     Distribution payments provided under Section 4.03.

by action of its Board, to merge or to consolidate this Plan with, or to
transfer the assets or liabilities of this Plan to, any other similar
retirement plan at any time, except that no such merger, consolidation or
transfer shall be authorized unless each Participant would receive a benefit
immediately after the merger, consolidation or transfer (if the merged,
consolidated or transferred plan then terminated) equal to or greater than
the benefit to which he would have been entitled immediately before the
merger, consolidation or transfer (if this Plan then terminated).

     Section 12.03.  Successors and Assigns.  This Plan shall be binding upon
the successors and assigns of the Company.

     Section 12.04.  Choice of Law.  Except as otherwise required by ERISA,
this Plan shall be construed and interpreted pursuant to, and in accordance
with, the laws of the State of Indiana.

construed as an agreement, consideration or inducement of employment or as
affecting in any manner the rights or obligations of the Employer or of any
Participant to continue or to terminate the employment relationship any time.

     Section 12.06.  Non-Alienation.  Neither a Participant nor his spouse
shall have any right to anticipate, to pledge, to alienate or to assign any
rights under this Plan, and any effort to do so shall be null and void.  The
monthly benefits payable under this Plan shall be exempt from the claims of
creditors or other claimants and from all orders, decrees, levies and
executions and any other legal process to the fullest extent then permitted
by law.  The preceding sentences shall also apply to the creation, assignment
or recognition of a right to any benefit payable with respect to a
Participant pursuant to a domestic relations order, unless such order is
determined to be a qualified domestic relations order as defined in Section
206(d) of ERISA.

     Section 12.07.  Gender and Number.  Words in the masculine gender shall
be construed to include the feminine gender in all cases where appropriate;

convenience of reference and shall not affect its interpretation.

     Section 12.09.  Payment to Incompetents.  If any Participant or
surviving spouse of a deceased Participant, entitled to benefits under this
Plan is, in the judgment of the Company, legally, physically or mentally
incapable of personally receiving and receipting for any payment due
hereunder, payment may be made to the guardian or other legal representative
of such Participant or such surviving spouse.

     Section 12.10.  Illegal or Invalid Provisions.  If any provision of this
Plan or the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance
shall be invalid under any law of the United States of America or of any
State or any political subdivision thereof, neither the application of such
provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which such
provision is invalid nor any other provisions of this Plan shall be affected
thereby.

       IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment and
Restatement of the Plan to be signed on this 31st day of December, 1998 and
to be effective as of January 1, 1999.  The terms of this Amendment and

of Service on or after January 1, 1999; provided, however, that under no
circumstances shall this Amendment and Restatement reduce the Accrued Benefit
of a Participant to an amount less than the Accrued Benefit in effect for the
Participant as determined on December 31, 1998.

                                    Otto N. Frenzel III, Chairman
                                    of the Compensation Committee
                                    of the Board



                            FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE
                      INDIANAPOLIS POWER & LIGHT COMPANY
               SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLAN AND TRUST AGREEMENT
                  FOR A SELECT GROUP OF MANAGEMENT EMPLOYEES
                       (AS LAST AMENDED AND RESTATED
                         EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1999)


        Pursuant to Section 12.01 of the Indianapolis Power & Light Company
Supplemental Retirement Plan and Trust Agreement for a Select Group of
Management Employees (the "Plan"), as last amended and restated effective
January 1, 1999, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of
IPALCO Enterprises, Inc. ("Compensation Committee") hereby amends Section
4.01 of the Plan to read in its entirety, as follows:

        Section 4.01.  Entitlement to Retirement Benefits.  A Participant
who retires or otherwise terminates his employment with the Employer for
reasons other than his death shall be entitled to receive monthly
supplemental pension benefits under this Plan only if:

                (a)     his employment with the Employer terminates on or
        after his attainment of the Normal Retirement Age,

                (b)     his employment with the Employer terminates by
        reason of his incurring a Total Disability, or

                (c)     his employment with the Employer terminates after
        his completion of at least one (1) Year of Service.

The amount of the monthly supplemental pension benefits to which an eligible
Participant is entitled upon his retirement or other termination of
employment shall be equal to the Vested Portion of his Post-Tax Adjusted
Benefit; provided, however, that the amount of a Participant's Post-Tax
Adjusted Benefit shall be redetermined each January 1; provided, further,
that under no circumstances may the Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit payable to a
Participant be less than the Vested Portion of his Adjusted Accrued Benefit
as determined on February 29, 1996.  The non-Vested Portion of a
Participant's Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit shall be governed by Section 4.02.
The monthly payments shall begin on the first (1st) calendar day of the
month coinciding with or next following the date on which a Participant
attains his Normal Retirement Age, or, if later, the date his employment
with the Employer is terminated and shall continue through the month in
which his death occurs; provided, however, that if a Participant's
employment with the Employer is terminated before his attainment of the
Normal Retirement Age, he may elect with the consent of the Company to have
his benefits begin on the first (1st) calendar day of the month following
the date on which his employment with the Employer is terminated or, if
later, the first (1st) day of the calendar month immediately following his
attainment of age fifty-five (55).  If benefit payments to a Participant
begin before his attainment of the Normal Retirement Age, the amount of such
Participant's monthly supplemental pension benefits shall be reduced to the
extent and in the same manner as such payments would be reduced if made
from the Company Retirement Plan; provided, however, that notwithstanding
anything contained in this Section to the contrary, a Participant:

        (a)     who is:

                (i)     a Senior Executive Officer or
                (ii)    an Other Executive Officer specifically desgianted
                by the Compensation Committee,

        and

        (b)     who at the date of his employment termination with the
        Employer is at least age fifty-five (55) and has completed at least
        thirty (30) years of Service

shall be eligible to elect the immediate commencement of his monthly
supplemental pension benefits without reduction; provided, further, that an
Other Executive Officer whose combined age and Service at the date of his
employment termination with the Employer is at least eighty-five (85) and
who as of his employment termination date has reached age fifty-five (55)
but has not reached age sixty-two (62) shall under no circumstances have a
reduction in his monthly supplemental pension benefit greater than twenty-
five one-hundredths (0.25) for each calendar month in which the benefit
commencement date precedes the date on which the Participant would have
reached age sixty-two (62).  If a Participant is married at the
date his benefit payments are to commence and notwithstanding anything
contained in this Plan to the contrary, his monthly benefits shall be paid
in the form of an actuarially equivalent joint and survivor annuity
determined in the same manner as the Joint and Survivor Annuity Option under
Section 205.50 of the Company Retirement Plan, unless such Participant,
with the written consent of his spouse witnessed by a Notary Public, elects
not to have his benefits paid in such form.

        Payment of benefits under this Section 4.01 shall be made in
accordance with and consistent with the requirements set forth in Section
205 of ERISA; provided, however, that subject to the applicable spousal
consent requirements contained in Section 205 of ERISA, a Participant may
elect for his benefits to be paid in any actuarially equivalent form of
payment which is available under the Company Retirement Plan (other than a
single lump sum payment).

        This First Amendment to the Plan has been executed on this
14th day of April, 1999 and shall be effective as of January 1, 1999.


                                COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
                                OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
                                IPALCO ENTERPRISES, INC.

                            SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE
                      INDIANAPOLIS POWER & LIGHT COMPANY
               SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLAN AND TRUST AGREEMENT
                  FOR A SELECT GROUP OF MANAGEMENT EMPLOYEES
                       (AS LAST AMENDED AND RESTATED
                         EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1999)


        Pursuant to Section 12.01 of the Indianapolis Power & Light Company
Supplemental Retirement Plan and Trust Agreement for a Select Group of
Management Employees (the "Plan"), as last amended and restated effective
January 1, 1999, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of
IPALCO Enterprises, Inc. ("Compensation Committee") hereby amends Section
4.01 of the Plan to read in its entirety, as follows:

        Section 4.01.  Entitlement to Retirement Benefits.  A Participant
who retires or otherwise terminates his employment with the Employer for
reasons other than his death shall be entitled to receive monthly
supplemental pension benefits under this Plan only if:

                (a)     his employment with the Employer terminates on or
        after his attainment of the Normal Retirement Age,

                (b)     his employment with the Employer terminates by
        reason of his incurring a Total Disability, or

                (c)     his employment with the Employer terminates after
        his completion of at least one (1) Year of Service.

The amount of the monthly supplemental pension benefits to which an eligible
Participant is entitled upon his retirement or other termination of
employment shall be equal to the Vested Portion of his Post-Tax Adjusted
Benefit; provided, however, that the amount of a Participant's Post-Tax
Adjusted Benefit shall be redetermined each January 1; provided, further,
that under no circumstances may the Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit payable to a
Participant be less than the Vested Portion of his Adjusted Accrued Benefit
as determined on February 29, 1996.  The non-Vested Portion of a
Participant's Post-Tax Adjusted Benefit shall be governed by Section 4.02.
The monthly payments shall begin on the first (1st) calendar day of the
month coinciding with or next following the date on which a Participant
attains his Normal Retirement Age, or, if later, the date his employment
with the Employer is terminated and shall continue through the month in
which his death occurs; provided, however, that if a Participant's
employment with the Employer is terminated before his attainment of the
Normal Retirement Age, he may elect with the consent of the Company to have
his benefits begin on the first (1st) calendar day of the month following
the date on which his employment with the Employer is terminated or, if
later, the first (1st) day of the calendar month immediately following his
attainment of age fifty-five (55).  If benefit payments to a Participant
begin before his attainment of the Normal Retirement Age, the amount of such
Participant's monthly supplemental pension benefits shall be reduced to the
extent and in the same manner as such payments would be reduced if made
from the Company Retirement Plan; provided, however, that notwithstanding
anything contained in this Section to the contrary, a Participant who at
the date of his employment termination with the Employer is at least age
fifty-five (55) and whose combined age and Service total at least
eighty-five (85) at the date of his termination of employment shall be
eligible to elect the immediate commencement of his monthly supplemental
pension benefits without reduction.  If a Participant is married at the
date his benefit payments are to commence and notwithstanding anything
contained in this Plan to the contrary, his monthly benefits shall be paid
in the form of an actuarially equivalent joint and survivor annuity
determined in the same manner as the Joint and Survivor Annuity Option under
Section 205.50 of the Company Retirement Plan, unless such Participant,
with the written consent of his spouse witnessed by a Notary Public, elects
not to have his benefits paid in such form.

        Payment of benefits under this Section 4.01 shall be made in
accordance with and consistent with the requirements set forth in Section

INDIANAPOLIS   POWER   &  LIGHT   COMPANY,   an   Indiana
corporation having its principal executive offices at  25
Monument  Circle,  Indianapolis, Indiana   46204  ("IPL")
(both  IPALCO  and  IPL  being collectively  referred  to
herein  as the "Company"), and     , an Indiana  resident
whose mailing address is       (the "Executive").

                        R E C I T A L S

     The following facts are true:

      A.   The Executive is serving the Company as a  key
executive officer, and is expected to continue to make  a
major  contribution  to  the profitability,  growth,  and
financial strength of the Company.

      B.  The Company considers the continued services of
the  Executive to be in the best interests of the Company
and its shareholders, and desires to assure itself of the
availability of such continued services in the future  on
an  objective and impartial basis and without distraction
or  conflict  of interest in the event of an  attempt  to
obtain control of the Company.

     C.  The Executive is willing to remain in the employ
of  the  Company upon the understanding that the  Company
will provide him with income security upon the terms  and
subject  to  the  conditions  contained  herein  if   his
employment is terminated by the Company without cause  or
if  he  voluntarily  terminates his employment  for  good
reason.

     D.  If the Company and Executive entered into one or
more   Termination  Benefits  Agreements  prior  to  this
Agreement  (the "Prior Termination Benefits Agreements"),
this  Agreement is intended to supersede and replace  the
Prior Termination Benefits Agreements.

                       A G R E E M E N T

      In  consideration of the premises  and  the  mutual
covenants  and  agreements  hereinafter  set  forth,  the
Company and the Executive agree as follows:

      1.   Undertaking.  The Company agrees to pay to the
Executive the termination benefits specified in paragraph
2 hereof if (a) control of IPALCO is acquired (as defined
in  paragraph  3(a)  hereof)  during  the  term  of  this
Agreement  (as described in paragraph 5 hereof)  and  (b)
within  three (3) years after the acquisition of  control
occurs  (i) the Company terminates the employment of  the
Executive for any reason other than Cause (as defined  in
paragraph 3(b) hereof), death, the Executive's attainment
of age sixty-five (65) or total and permanent disability,
or   (ii)   the  Executive  voluntarily  terminates   his
employment for Good Reason (as defined in paragraph  3(c)
hereof).

      2.   Termination  Benefits.  If  the  Executive  is
entitled to termination benefits pursuant to paragraph  1
hereof,  the  Company agrees to pay to the  Executive  as
termination  benefits in a lump-sum payment  within  five
(5)  calendar days of the termination of the  Executive's
employment  an  amount to be computed by multiplying  (i)
the  Executive's average annual compensation (as  defined
in  Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended  (the "Code")) payable by the Company  which  was
includable in the gross income of the Executive  for  the
most  recent  five  (5) calendar years ending  coincident
with  or immediately before the date on which control  of
the  Company is acquired (or such portion of such  period
during  which  the  Executive  was  an  employee  of  the
Company), by (ii) two hundred ninety-nine and ninety-nine
one  hundredths percent (299.99%).  For purposes of  this
Agreement, employment and compensation paid by any direct
or  indirect subsidiary of the Company will be deemed  to
be employment and compensation paid by the Company.

       "acquisition of control" means:

            generally  in the election of directors  (the
            "Outstanding   IPALCO  Voting   Securities");
            provided,   however,   that   the   following
            acquisitions   shall   not   constitute    an
            acquisition  of control:  (A) any acquisition

            sponsored  or  maintained by IPALCO,  IPL  or
            any  corporation controlled by IPALCO or  (D)

            to     a     reorganization,    merger     or
            consolidation,     if,     following     such
            reorganization, merger or consolidation,  the
            conditions described in clauses (A), (B)  and
            (C)  of  subsection (iii) of  this  paragraph

            of   Directors  of  IPALCO  (the   "Incumbent
            Board")  cease  for any reason to  constitute
            at   least   a  majority  of  the  Board   of
            Directors  of IPALCO (the "Board"); provided,
            however,  that  any  individual  becoming   a
            director subsequent to the date hereof  whose
            election,  or  nomination  for  election   by
            IPALCO's  shareholders,  was  approved  by  a
            vote  of at least a majority of the directors
            then comprising the Incumbent Board shall  be
            considered as though such individual  were  a
            member   of   the   Incumbent   Board,    but
            excluding,   for  this  purpose,   any   such
            individual   whose  initial   assumption   of
            office  occurs  as  a  result  of  either  an
            actual  or  threatened election  contest  (as
            such  terms  are  used  in  Rule  14a-11   of
            Regulation   14A   promulgated   under    the
            Exchange  Act) or other actual or  threatened
            solicitation of proxies or consents by or  on
            behalf of a Person other than the Board; or

                 (iii)  Approval  by  the
            shareholders  of  IPALCO of a reorganization,
            merger   or  consolidation,  in  each   case,

            corporation     resulting      from      such
            reorganization,  merger or consolidation  and
            the   combined  voting  power  of  the   then
            outstanding   voting   securities   of   such

            action  of the Board providing for such  sale
            or other disposition of assets of IPALCO; or

                 (v)   The  closing,   as
            defined in the documents relating to,  or  as
            evidenced  by a certificate of any  state  or
            federal  governmental authority in connection
            with, a transaction approval of which by  the
            shareholders  of IPALCO would  constitute  an
            "acquisition  of  control"  under  subsection
            (iii)  or (iv) of this section 3(a)  of  this
            Agreement.

               Notwithstanding anything contained in this
       Agreement  to  the  contrary, if  the  Executive's
       employment  is  terminated before an  "acquisition
       of  control" as defined in this section  3(a)  and
       the  Executive reasonably demonstrates  that  such
       termination  (i)  was at the request  of  a  third
       party  who  has  indicated an intention  or  taken
       steps   reasonably   calculated   to   effect   an
       "acquisition  of control" and who  effectuates  an
       "acquisition  of  control" (a  "Third  Party")  or
       (ii) otherwise occurred in connection with, or  in
       anticipation  of,  an  "acquisition  of   control"
       which  actually occurs, then for all  purposes  of
       this  Agreement,  the date of an  "acquisition  of
       control" with respect to the Executive shall  mean
       the  date  immediately prior to the date  of  such
       termination of the Executive's employment.

               (b)   As used in this Agreement, the  term
       "Cause"   means   fraud,  dishonesty,   theft   of
       corporate  assets,  or other gross  misconduct  by
       the  Executive.   Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,
       the  Executive shall not be deemed  to  have  been
       terminated for cause unless and until there  shall
       have  been delivered to him a copy of a resolution
       duly  adopted by the affirmative vote of not  less
       than  a  majority of the entire membership of  the
       Board  at  a meeting of the Board called and  held
       for  the purpose (after reasonable notice  to  him
       and  an  opportunity for him,  together  with  his
       counsel,  to  be heard before the Board),  finding
       that  in  the good faith opinion of the Board  the
       Executive  was guilty of conduct set  forth  above
       in  the  first  sentence  of  the  subsection  and
       specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

               (c)   As used in this Agreement, the  term
       "Good   Reason"  means,  without  the  Executive's
       written   consent,   (i)   a   demotion   in   the
       Executive's  status, position or  responsibilities
       which,  in  his  reasonable  judgment,  does   not
       represent  a  promotion from his status,  position
       or   responsibilities  as  in  effect  immediately
       prior   to   the  change  in  control;  (ii)   the
       assignment  to  the Executive  of  any  duties  or
       responsibilities   which,   in   his    reasonable
       judgment,  are  inconsistent  with  such   status,
       position  or responsibilities; or any  removal  of
       the  Executive  from or failure  to  reappoint  or
       reelect  him to any of such positions,  except  in
       connection  with the termination of his employment
       for  total  and  permanent  disability,  death  or
       Cause  or by him other than for Good Reason; (iii)
       a  reduction  by  the Company in  the  Executive's
       base salary as in effect on the date hereof or  as
       the  same  may  be  increased from  time  to  time
       during   the  term  of  this  Agreement   or   the
       Company's failure to increase (within twelve  (12)
       months  of the Executive's last increase  in  base
       salary)  the  Executive's  base  salary  after   a
       change  in  control in an amount  which  at  least
       equals,   on  a  percentage  basis,  the   average
       percentage  increase  in  base  salary   for   all
       executive  and  senior  officers  of  the  Company
       effected  in  the  preceding twelve  (12)  months;
       (iv)  the  relocation  of the principal  executive
       offices  of  IPALCO  or IPL, whichever  entity  on
       behalf   of   which  the  Executive   performs   a
       principal function of that entity as part  of  his
       employment  services,  to a location  outside  the
       Indianapolis,  Indiana metropolitan  area  or  the
       Company's  requiring him to be based at any  place
       other than the location at which he performed  his
       duties  prior to a change in control,  except  for
       required  travel on the Company's business  to  an
       extent  substantially consistent with his business
       travel  obligations at the time  of  a  change  in
       control;  (v)  the  failure  by  the  Company   to
       continue  in effect any incentive, bonus or  other
       compensation   plan   in   which   the   Executive
       participates,  including but not  limited  to  the
       Company's   stock  option  and  restricted   stock
       plans,  unless an equitable arrangement  (embodied
       in  an  ongoing  substitute or alternative  plan),
       with  which he has consented, has been  made  with
       respect  to  such  plan  in  connection  with  the
       change  in control, or the failure by the  Company
       to  continue  his  participation therein,  or  any
       action  by  the  Company which would  directly  or
       indirectly  materially  reduce  his  participation
       therein;  (vi)  the  failure  by  the  Company  to
       continue  to  provide the Executive with  benefits
       substantially similar to those enjoyed by  him  or
       to   which  he  was  entitled  under  any  of  the
       Company's    pension,   profit    sharing,    life
       insurance,  medical, dental, health and  accident,
       or  disability plans in which he was participating
       at  the time of a change in control, the taking of
       any action by the Company which would directly  or
       indirectly materially reduce any of such  benefits
       or  deprive  him  of any material  fringe  benefit
       enjoyed by him or to which he was entitled at  the
       time  of the change in control, or the failure  by
       the  Company  to provide him with  the  number  of
       paid  vacation and sick leave days to which he  is
       entitled  on  the basis of years of  service  with
       the  Company  in  accordance  with  the  Company's
       normal  vacation  policy in  effect  on  the  date
       hereof;  (vii)  the  failure  of  the  Company  to
       obtain   a   satisfactory   agreement   from   any
       successor  or assign of the Company to assume  and
       agree  to  perform  this  Agreement;  (viii)   any
       purported    termination   of   the    Executive's
       employment  which is not effected  pursuant  to  a
       Notice  of Termination satisfying the requirements
       of  paragraph  4(c)  hereof (and,  if  applicable,
       paragraph 3(b) hereof); and for purposes  of  this
       Agreement, no such purported termination shall  be
       effective;  or  (ix) any request  by  the  Company
       that the Executive participate in an unlawful  act
       or  take any action constituting a breach  of  the
       Executive's professional standard of conduct.

               Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph
       3(c)  to  the contrary, the Executive's  right  to
       terminate   his   employment  pursuant   to   this
       paragraph  3(c)  shall  not  be  affected  by  his
       incapacity due to physical or mental illness.

       4.  Additional Provisions.

                (a)    Enforcement  of  Agreement.    The
       Company  is  aware that upon the occurrence  of  a
       change  in  control the Board of  Directors  or  a
       shareholder  of  the Company  may  then  cause  or
       attempt  to cause the Company to refuse to  comply
       with its obligations under this Agreement, or  may
       cause   or   attempt  to  cause  the  Company   to
       institute,  or  may institute, litigation  seeking
       to  have this Agreement declared unenforceable, or
       may  take or attempt to take other action to  deny
       the  Executive  the benefits intended  under  this
       Agreement.   In these circumstances,  the  purpose
       of  this Agreement could be frustrated.  It is the
       intent  of the Company that the Executive  not  be
       required  to  incur the expenses  associated  with
       the   enforcement   of  his  rights   under   this
       Agreement  by  litigation or other  legal  action,
       nor  be  bound to negotiate any settlement of  his
       rights hereunder, because the cost and expense  of
       such    legal    action   or   settlement    would
       substantially  detract from the benefits  intended
       to   be   extended  to  the  Executive  hereunder.
       Accordingly, if following a change in  control  it
       should  appear to the Executive that  the  Company
       has  failed  to comply with any of its obligations
       under  this  Agreement or in the  event  that  the
       Company  or any other person takes any  action  to
       declare  this Agreement void or unenforceable,  or
       institutes  any litigation or other  legal  action
       designed to deny, diminish or to recover from  the
       Executive the benefits entitled to be provided  to
       the  Executive  hereunder and that  the  Executive
       has  complied  with  all of his obligations  under
       this    Agreement,    the   Company    irrevocably
       authorizes  the  Executive from time  to  time  to
       retain  counsel of his choice, at the  expense  of
       the  Company  as provided in this paragraph  4(a),
       to  represent the Executive in connection with the
       initiation or defense of any litigation  or  other
       legal  action,  whether  such  action  is  by   or
       against  the  Company  or any  director,  officer,
       shareholder, or other person affiliated  with  the
       Company,  in  any  jurisdiction.   Notwithstanding
       any     existing    or    prior    attorney-client
       relationship   between  the   Company   and   such
       counsel, the Company irrevocably consents  to  the
       Executive   entering   into   an   attorney-client
       relationship  with  such  counsel,  and  in   that
       connection  the  Company and the  Executive  agree
       that   a  confidential  relationship  shall  exist
       between  the  Executive  and  such  counsel.   The
       reasonable  fees and expenses of counsel  selected
       from  time to time by the Executive as hereinabove
       provided  shall  be  paid  or  reimbursed  to  the
       Executive  by  the Company on a regular,  periodic
       basis  upon  presentation by the  Executive  of  a
       statement  or statements prepared by such  counsel
       in  accordance with its customary practices, up to
       a  maximum  aggregate  amount  of  $500,000.   Any
       legal  expenses incurred by the Company by  reason
       of   any  dispute  between  the  parties   as   to
       enforceability of or the terms contained  in  this
       Agreement,  notwithstanding  the  outcome  of  any
       such dispute, shall be the sole responsibility  of
       the  Company, and the Company shall not  take  any
       action  to  seek reimbursement from the  Executive
       for such expenses.

               (b)   Severance Pay; No Duty to  Mitigate.
       The  amounts payable to the Executive  under  this
       Agreement shall not be treated as damages  but  as
       severance  compensation to which the Executive  is
       entitled   by   reason  of  termination   of   his
       employment  in  the circumstances contemplated  by
       this   Agreement.   The  Company  shall   not   be
       entitled  to  set off against the amounts  payable
       to   the  Executive  any  amounts  earned  by  the
       Executive  in  other employment after  termination
       of   his  employment  with  the  Company,  or  any
       amounts  which  might  have  been  earned  by  the
       Executive  in other employment had he sought  such
       other employment.

               (c)  Notice of Termination.  Any purported
       termination  by  the Company or by  the  Executive
       shall   be  communicated  by  written  Notice   of
       Termination   to   the  other  party   hereto   in
       accordance   with  paragraph  4(k)  hereof.    For
       purposes   of   this  Agreement,  a   "Notice   of
       Termination"  shall  mean  a  notice  which  shall
       indicate  the  specific termination  provision  in
       this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth  in
       reasonable  detail  the  facts  and  circumstances
       claimed to provide a basis for termination of  his
       employment under the provision so indicated.   For
       purposes  of  this  Agreement, no  such  purported
       termination   shall  be  effective  without   such
       Notice of Termination.

               (d)   Internal Revenue Code.  Anything  in
       this  Agreement  to the contrary  notwithstanding,
       in  the  event  that Deloitte & Touche  determines
       that  any  payment by the Company to  or  for  the
       benefit of the Executive pursuant to the terms  of
       this  Agreement  would  be  nondeductible  by  the
       Company  for  federal income tax purposes  because
       of  Section  280G  of the Code,  then  the  amount
       payable  to  or  for the benefit of the  Executive
       pursuant  to this Agreement shall be reduced  (but
       not  below  zero)  to the maximum  amount  payable
       without  causing  the payment to be  nondeductible
       by  the  Company because of Section  280G  of  the
       Code.   Such  determination by Deloitte  &  Touche
       shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties.

               (e)   Assignment.   This  Agreement  shall
       inure  to  the benefit of and be binding upon  the
       parties  hereto  and  their respective  executors,
       administrators,  heirs, personal  representatives,
       successors,   and   assigns,  but   neither   this
       Agreement nor any right hereunder may be  assigned
       or   transferred  by  either  party  hereto,   any
       beneficiary, or any other person, nor  be  subject
       to   alienation,   anticipation,   sale,   pledge,
       encumbrance,  execution,  levy,  or  other   legal
       process  of  any  kind against the Executive,  his
       beneficiary  or any other person.  Notwithstanding
       the   foregoing,  the  Company  will  assign  this
       Agreement  to  any corporation or  other  business
       entity  succeeding  to substantially  all  of  the
       business  and  assets of the  Company  by  merger,
       consolidation,  sale of assets, or  otherwise  and
       shall  obtain the assumption of this Agreement  by
       such successor.

               (f)   Entire  Agreement.   This  Agreement
       contains the entire agreement between the  parties
       with  respect to the subject matter  hereof.   All
       representations,   promises,    and    prior    or
       contemporaneous understandings among  the  parties
       with   respect  to  the  subject  matter   hereof,
       including    any   Prior   Termination    Benefits
       Agreements, are merged into and expressed in  this
       Agreement,   and  any  and  all  prior  agreements
       between  the  parties with respect to the  subject
       matter hereof are hereby cancelled.

               (g)  Amendment.  This Agreement shall  not
       be  amended, modified, or supplemented without the
       written  agreement of the parties at the  time  of
       such amendment, modification, or supplement.

               (h)   Governing Law.  This Agreement shall
       be  governed  by and subject to the  laws  of  the
       State of Indiana.

                (i)   Severability.   The  invalidity  or
       unenforceability  of any particular  provision  of
       this   Agreement  shall  not  affect   the   other
       provisions, and this Agreement shall be  construed
       in   all   respects   as  if   such   invalid   or
       unenforceable  provision had  not  been  contained
       herein.

                (j)   Captions.   The  captions  in  this
       Agreement  are  for convenience and identification
       purposes  only, are not an integral part  of  this
       Agreement,  and  are not to be considered  in  the
       interpretation of any part hereof.

                (k)    Notices.   Except   as   otherwise
       specifically  provided  in  this  Agreement,   all
       notices  and other communications hereunder  shall
       be  in  writing and shall be deemed to  have  been
       duly  given  if  delivered in person  or  sent  by
       registered  or  certified mail,  postage  prepaid,
       addressed  as  set forth above, or to  such  other
       address  as shall be furnished in writing  by  any
       party to the others.

                (l)    Waivers.   Except   as   otherwise
       specifically   provided  in  this  Agreement,   no
       waiver  by  either party hereto of any  breach  by
       the  other  party  hereto  of  any  condition   or
       provision  of  this Agreement to be  performed  by
       such  other  party shall be deemed to be  a  valid
       waiver  unless such waiver is in writing or,  even
       if  in writing, shall be deemed to be a waiver  of
       a   subsequent   breach  of  such   condition   or
       provision  or a waiver of a similar or  dissimilar
       provision  or  condition at the  same  or  at  any
       prior or subsequent time.

               (m)   Gender.   The use of  the  masculine
       gender  throughout this Agreement  is  solely  for
       convenience;  thus, in cases where  the  Executive
       is  female, the feminine gender shall be deemed to
       be used in place of the masculine gender.


     5.   Term  of this Agreement.  This Agreement  shall
remain  in  effect  until January 1, 1998  or  until  the
expiration  of any extension thereof.  The term  of  this
Agreement  shall be automatically extended  for  one  (1)
year periods without further action of the parties as  of
January 1, 1994 and each succeeding January 1 thereafter,
unless  IPALCO  shall have served written notice  to  the
Executive prior to January 1, 1994 or prior to January  1
of  each  succeeding year, as the case  may  be,  of  its
intention that the Agreement shall terminate at  the  end
of  the  five  (5)  year  period  that  begins  with  the
January 1 following the date of such written notice.

     IN  WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed  this
Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

                 TERMINATION BENEFITS AGREEMENT

     This Agreement, dated as of January 1, 1997, by  and
among  IPALCO  ENTERPRISES, INC., an Indiana  corporation
having  its  principal executive offices at One  Monument
Circle,    Indianapolis,   Indiana    46204   ("IPALCO"),
INDIANAPOLIS   POWER   &  LIGHT   COMPANY,   an   Indiana
corporation having its principal executive offices at One
Monument  Circle,  Indianapolis, Indiana   46204  ("IPL")
(both  IPALCO  and  IPL  being collectively  referred  to
herein  as the "Company"), and RAMON L. HUMKE, an Indiana
resident  whose  mailing address  is  7624  William  Penn
Place, Indianapolis, Indiana  46256 (the "Executive").

                        R E C I T A L S

     The following facts are true:

     A.   The Executive is serving the Company as  a  key
executive officer, and is expected to continue to make  a
major  contribution  to  the profitability,  growth,  and
financial strength of the Company.

     B.   The Company considers the continued services of
the  Executive to be in the best interests of the Company
and its shareholders, and desires to assure itself of the
availability of such continued services in the future  on
an  objective and impartial basis and without distraction
or  conflict  of interest in the event of an  attempt  to
obtain control of the Company.

     C.  The Executive is willing to remain in the employ
of  the  Company upon the understanding that the  Company
will provide him with income security upon the terms  and
subject  to  the  conditions  contained  herein  if   his
employment is terminated by the Company without cause  or
if  he  voluntarily  terminates his employment  for  good
reason.

     D.  If the Company and Executive entered into one or
more   Termination  Benefits  Agreements  prior  to  this
Agreement  (the "Prior Termination Benefits Agreements"),
this  Agreement is intended to supersede and replace  the
Prior Termination Benefits Agreements.

                       A G R E E M E N T

     In  consideration  of the premises  and  the  mutual
covenants  and  agreements  hereinafter  set  forth,  the
Company and the Executive agree as follows:

     1.   Undertaking.  The Company agrees to pay to  the
Executive the termination benefits specified in paragraph
2 hereof if (a) control of IPALCO is acquired (as defined
in  paragraph  3(a)  hereof)  during  the  term  of  this
Agreement  (as described in paragraph 5 hereof)  and  (b)
within  three (3) years after the acquisition of  control
occurs  (i) the Company terminates the employment of  the
Executive for any reason other than Cause (as defined  in
paragraph  3(b)  hereof), death, or total  and  permanent
disability, or (ii) the Executive voluntarily  terminates
his  employment for Good Reason (as defined in  paragraph
3(c) hereof).


     2.   Termination  Benefits.   If  the  Executive  is
entitled to termination benefits pursuant to paragraph  1
hereof,  the  Company agrees to pay to the  Executive  as
termination  benefits in a lump-sum payment  within  five
(5)  calendar days of the termination of the  Executive's
employment  an  amount to be computed by multiplying  (i)
the  Executive's average annual compensation (as  defined
in  Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended  (the "Code")) payable by the Company  which  was
includable in the gross income of the Executive  for  the
most  recent  five  (5) calendar years ending  coincident
with  or immediately before the date on which control  of
the  Company is acquired (or such portion of such  period
during  which  the  Executive  was  an  employee  of  the
Company), by (ii) two hundred ninety-nine and ninety-nine
one  hundredths percent (299.99%).  For purposes of  this
Agreement, employment and compensation paid by any direct
or  indirect subsidiary of the Company will be deemed  to
be employment and compensation paid by the Company.

     3.  Definitions.

            (a)    As   used   in  this  Agreement,   the
       "acquisition of control" means:

               (i)  The  acquisition by  any  individual,
            entity  or  group  (within  the  meaning   of
            Section   13(d)(3)   or   14(d)(2)   of   the
            Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as  amended
            (the   "Exchange  Act"))  (a   "Person")   of
            beneficial  ownership (within the meaning  of
            Rule  13d-3  promulgated under  the  Exchange
            Act)  of  twenty  percent (20%)  or  more  of
            either  (A)  the then outstanding  shares  of
            common  stock  of  IPALCO  (the  "Outstanding
            IPALCO  Common  Stock") or (B)  the  combined
            voting  power of the then outstanding  voting
            securities   of  IPALCO  entitled   to   vote
            generally  in the election of directors  (the
            "Outstanding   IPALCO  Voting   Securities");
            provided,   however,   that   the   following
            acquisitions   shall   not   constitute    an
            acquisition  of control:  (A) any acquisition
            directly    from    IPALCO   (excluding    an
            acquisition  by virtue of the exercise  of  a
            conversion privilege), (B) any acquisition by
            IPALCO,  (C) any acquisition by any  employee
            benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored  or
            maintained  by IPALCO, IPL or any corporation
            controlled  by IPALCO or (D) any  acquisition
            by    any   corporation   pursuant    to    a
            reorganization, merger or consolidation,  if,
            following  such  reorganization,  merger   or
            consolidation,  the conditions  described  in
            clauses (A), (B) and (C) of subsection  (iii)
            of this paragraph 3(a) are satisfied;

               (ii)   Individuals who,  as  of  the  date
            hereof, constitute the Board of Directors  of
            IPALCO (the "Incumbent Board") cease for  any
            reason  to constitute at least a majority  of
            the   Board  of  Directors  of  IPALCO   (the
            "Board");   provided,   however,   that   any
            individual becoming a director subsequent  to
            the date hereof whose election, or nomination
            for  election  by IPALCO's shareholders,  was
            approved by a vote of at least a majority  of
            the  directors then comprising the  Incumbent
            Board  shall  be  considered as  though  such
            individual  were  a member of  the  Incumbent
            Board,  but excluding, for this purpose,  any
            such  individual whose initial assumption  of
            office occurs as a result of either an actual
            or threatened election contest (as such terms
            are  used  in  Rule 14a-11 of Regulation  14A
            promulgated under the Exchange Act) or  other

            a  majority  of the members of the  board  of
            directors  of the corporation resulting  from
            such  reorganization, merger or consolidation
            were  members of the Incumbent Board  at  the
            time   of   the  execution  of  the   initial
            agreement  providing for such reorganization,
            merger or consolidation;

               (iv)   Approval  by  the  shareholders  of
            IPALCO  of  (A)  a  complete  liquidation  or

            a  majority  of the members of the  board  of
            directors of such corporation were members of
            the  Incumbent  Board  at  the  time  of  the
            execution of the initial agreement or  action
            of the Board providing for such sale or other
            disposition of assets of IPALCO; or

               (v)    The  closing,  as  defined  in  the
            documents relating to, or as evidenced  by  a
            certificate   of   any   state   or   federal
            governmental authority in connection with,  a
            transaction   approval  of   which   by   the
            shareholders  of IPALCO would  constitute  an
            "acquisition  of  control"  under  subsection
            (iii)  or (iv) of this section 3(a)  of  this
            Agreement.

            Notwithstanding  anything contained  in  this
       Agreement  to  the  contrary, if  the  Executive's
       employment is terminated before an "acquisition of
       control" as defined in this section 3(a)  and  the
       Executive   reasonably  demonstrates   that   such
       termination  (i)  was at the request  of  a  third
       party  who  has  indicated an intention  or  taken
       steps   reasonably   calculated   to   effect   an
       "acquisition  of control" and who  effectuates  an
       "acquisition of control" (a "Third Party") or (ii)
       otherwise  occurred  in  connection  with,  or  in
       anticipation of, an "acquisition of control" which
       actually  occurs,  then for all purposes  of  this
       Agreement, the date of an "acquisition of control"
       with  respect to the Executive shall mean the date
       immediately  prior to the date of such termination
       of the Executive's employment.

            (b)   As  used  in this Agreement,  the  term
       "Cause"   means   fraud,  dishonesty,   theft   of
       corporate assets, or other gross misconduct by the
       Executive.   Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  the
       Executive  shall  not  be  deemed  to  have   been
       terminated for cause unless and until there  shall
       have  been delivered to him a copy of a resolution
       duly  adopted by the affirmative vote of not  less
       than  a  majority of the entire membership of  the
       Board  at  a meeting of the Board called and  held
       for  the purpose (after reasonable notice  to  him
       and  an  opportunity for him,  together  with  his
       counsel,  to  be heard before the Board),  finding
       that  in  the good faith opinion of the Board  the
       Executive was guilty of conduct set forth above in
       the   first   sentence  of  the   subsection   and
       specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

            (c)   As  used  in this Agreement,  the  term
       "Good   Reason"  means,  without  the  Executive's
       written consent, (i) a demotion in the Executive's
       status, position or responsibilities which, in his
       reasonable   judgment,  does   not   represent   a
       promotion    from   his   status,   position    or
       responsibilities as in effect immediately prior to
       the  change in control; (ii) the assignment to the
       Executive of any duties or responsibilities which,
       in  his reasonable judgment, are inconsistent with
       such status, position or responsibilities; or  any
       removal  of  the  Executive  from  or  failure  to
       reappoint or reelect him to any of such positions,
       except  in connection with the termination of  his
       employment  for  total  and permanent  disability,
       death  or  Cause  or by him other  than  for  Good
       Reason;  (iii) a reduction by the Company  in  the
       Executive's base salary as in effect on  the  date
       hereof  or as the same may be increased from  time
       to  time during the term of this Agreement or  the
       Company's failure to increase (within twelve  (12)
       months  of the Executive's last increase  in  base
       salary) the Executive's base salary after a change
       in  control in an amount which at least equals, on
       a   percentage   basis,  the  average   percentage
       increase  in  base  salary for all  executive  and
       senior  officers  of the Company effected  in  the
       preceding  twelve (12) months; (iv) the relocation
       of  the  principal executive offices of IPALCO  or
       IPL,  whichever  entity on  behalf  of  which  the
       Executive  performs a principal function  of  that
       entity  as part of his employment services,  to  a
       location   outside   the   Indianapolis,   Indiana
       metropolitan  area or the Company's requiring  him
       to  be  based at any place other than the location
       at which he performed his duties prior to a change
       in  control,  except for required  travel  on  the
       Company's  business  to  an  extent  substantially
       consistent with his business travel obligations at
       the  time of a change in control; (v) the  failure
       by   the   Company  to  continue  in  effect   any
       incentive,  bonus  or other compensation  plan  in
       which  the  Executive participates, including  but
       not  limited  to  the Company's stock  option  and
       restricted   stock  plans,  unless  an   equitable
       arrangement (embodied in an ongoing substitute  or
       alternative  plan), with which he  has  consented,
       has  been  made  with  respect  to  such  plan  in
       connection  with  the change in  control,  or  the
       failure   by   the   Company   to   continue   his
       participation  therein,  or  any  action  by   the
       Company   which   would  directly  or   indirectly
       materially reduce his participation therein;  (vi)
       the  failure by the Company to continue to provide
       the  Executive with benefits substantially similar
       to  those  enjoyed  by him  or  to  which  he  was
       entitled  under  any  of  the  Company's  pension,
       profit  sharing, life insurance, medical,  dental,
       health and accident, or disability plans in  which
       he  was  participating at the time of a change  in
       control,  the taking of any action by the  Company
       which  would  directly  or  indirectly  materially
       reduce any of such benefits or deprive him of  any
       material fringe benefit enjoyed by him or to which
       he  was  entitled  at the time of  the  change  in
       control, or the failure by the Company to  provide
       him  with  the  number of paid vacation  and  sick
       leave days to which he is entitled on the basis of
       years  of  service with the Company in  accordance
       with  the  Company's  normal  vacation  policy  in
       effect  on  the date hereof; (vii) the failure  of
       the  Company  to  obtain a satisfactory  agreement
       from  any  successor or assign of the  Company  to
       assume and agree to perform this Agreement; (viii)
       any   purported  termination  of  the  Executive's
       employment  which is not effected  pursuant  to  a
       Notice  of Termination satisfying the requirements
       of  paragraph  4(c)  hereof (and,  if  applicable,
       paragraph 3(b) hereof); and for purposes  of  this
       Agreement, no such purported termination shall  be
       effective; or (ix) any request by the Company that
       the  Executive participate in an unlawful  act  or
       take  any  action  constituting a  breach  of  the
       Executive's professional standard of conduct.

            Notwithstanding  anything in  this  paragraph
       3(c)  to  the contrary, the Executive's  right  to
       terminate   his   employment  pursuant   to   this
       paragraph  3(c)  shall  not  be  affected  by  his
       incapacity due to physical or mental illness.

    4. Additional Provisions.

            (a)   Enforcement of Agreement.  The  Company
       is  aware that upon the occurrence of a change  in
       control the Board of Directors or a shareholder of
       the Company may then cause or attempt to cause the
       Company  to  refuse to comply with its obligations
       under  this Agreement, or may cause or attempt  to
       cause  the Company to institute, or may institute,
       litigation seeking to have this Agreement declared
       unenforceable,  or  may take or  attempt  to  take
       other  action  to deny the Executive the  benefits
       intended   under   this   Agreement.    In   these
       circumstances, the purpose of this Agreement could
       be  frustrated.  It is the intent of  the  Company
       that  the  Executive not be required to incur  the
       expenses  associated with the enforcement  of  his
       rights under this Agreement by litigation or other
       legal  action,  nor  be  bound  to  negotiate  any
       settlement  of his rights hereunder,  because  the
       cost   and   expense  of  such  legal  action   or
       settlement  would substantially detract  from  the
       benefits  intended to be extended to the Executive
       hereunder.  Accordingly, if following a change  in
       control it should appear to the Executive that the
       Company  has  failed to comply  with  any  of  its
       obligations under this Agreement or in  the  event
       that  the  Company or any other person  takes  any
       action   to   declare  this  Agreement   void   or
       unenforceable,  or  institutes any  litigation  or
       other  legal action designed to deny, diminish  or
       to   recover  from  the  Executive  the   benefits
       entitled to be provided to the Executive hereunder
       and  that the Executive has complied with  all  of
       his  obligations under this Agreement, the Company
       irrevocably authorizes the Executive from time  to
       time  to  retain  counsel of his  choice,  at  the
       expense  of  the  Company  as  provided  in   this
       paragraph  4(a),  to represent  the  Executive  in
       connection with the initiation or defense  of  any
       litigation  or  other legal action,  whether  such
       action  is  by  or  against  the  Company  or  any
       director,  officer, shareholder, or  other  person
       affiliated  with the Company, in any jurisdiction.
       Notwithstanding    any    existing    or     prior
       attorney-client relationship between  the  Company
       and such counsel, the Company irrevocably consents
       to  the Executive entering into an attorney-client
       relationship  with  such  counsel,  and  in   that
       connection  the  Company and the  Executive  agree
       that   a  confidential  relationship  shall  exist
       between  the  Executive  and  such  counsel.   The
       reasonable  fees and expenses of counsel  selected
       from  time to time by the Executive as hereinabove
       provided  shall  be  paid  or  reimbursed  to  the
       Executive  by  the Company on a regular,  periodic
       basis  upon  presentation by the  Executive  of  a
       statement  or statements prepared by such  counsel
       in  accordance with its customary practices, up to
       a maximum aggregate amount of $500,000.  Any legal
       expenses incurred by the Company by reason of  any
       dispute  between the parties as to  enforceability
       of  or  the  terms  contained in  this  Agreement,
       notwithstanding the outcome of any  such  dispute,
       shall  be  the sole responsibility of the Company,
       and  the Company shall not take any action to seek
       reimbursement   from   the  Executive   for   such
       expenses.

            (b)  Severance Pay; No Duty to Mitigate.  The
       amounts  payable  to  the  Executive  under   this
       Agreement shall not be treated as damages  but  as
       severance  compensation to which the Executive  is
       entitled   by   reason  of  termination   of   his
       employment  in  the circumstances contemplated  by
       this Agreement.  The Company shall not be entitled
       to  set  off  against the amounts payable  to  the
       Executive  any amounts earned by the Executive  in
       other   employment   after  termination   of   his
       employment with the Company, or any amounts  which
       might  have been earned by the Executive in  other
       employment had he sought such other employment.

            (c)   Notice  of Termination.  Any  purported
       termination  by  the Company or by  the  Executive
       shall   be  communicated  by  written  Notice   of
       Termination   to   the  other  party   hereto   in
       accordance   with  paragraph  4(k)  hereof.    For
       purposes   of   this  Agreement,  a   "Notice   of
       Termination"  shall  mean  a  notice  which  shall
       indicate  the  specific termination  provision  in
       this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth  in
       reasonable  detail  the  facts  and  circumstances
       claimed to provide a basis for termination of  his
       employment under the provision so indicated.   For
       purposes  of  this  Agreement, no  such  purported
       termination shall be effective without such Notice
       of Termination.

            (d)  Internal Revenue Code.  Anything in this
       Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in  the
       event  that Deloitte & Touche determines that  any
       payment  by  the Company to or for the benefit  of
       the  Executive  pursuant  to  the  terms  of  this
       Agreement  would be nondeductible by  the  Company
       for federal income tax purposes because of Section
       280G  of the Code, then the amount payable  to  or
       for  the benefit of the Executive pursuant to this
       Agreement shall be reduced (but not below zero) to
       the  maximum  amount payable without  causing  the
       payment to be nondeductible by the Company because
       of  Section  280G of the Code.  Such determination
       by  Deloitte  &  Touche shall  be  conclusive  and
       binding upon the parties.

            (e)   Assignment.  This Agreement shall inure
       to  the benefit of and be binding upon the parties
       hereto    and    their    respective    executors,
       administrators,  heirs, personal  representatives,
       successors,   and   assigns,  but   neither   this
       Agreement nor any right hereunder may be  assigned
       or   transferred  by  either  party  hereto,   any
       beneficiary, or any other person, nor  be  subject
       to   alienation,   anticipation,   sale,   pledge,
       encumbrance,  execution,  levy,  or  other   legal
       process  of  any  kind against the Executive,  his
       beneficiary  or any other person.  Notwithstanding
       the   foregoing,  the  Company  will  assign  this
       Agreement  to  any corporation or  other  business
       entity  succeeding  to substantially  all  of  the
       business  and  assets of the  Company  by  merger,
       consolidation,  sale of assets, or  otherwise  and
       shall  obtain the assumption of this Agreement  by
       such successor.

            (f)    Entire   Agreement.   This   Agreement
       contains the entire agreement between the  parties
       with  respect to the subject matter  hereof.   All
       representations,   promises,    and    prior    or
       contemporaneous understandings among  the  parties
       with   respect  to  the  subject  matter   hereof,
       including    any   Prior   Termination    Benefits
       Agreements, are merged into and expressed in  this
       Agreement,   and  any  and  all  prior  agreements
       between  the  parties with respect to the  subject
       matter hereof are hereby cancelled.

       such amendment, modification, or supplement.

            (h)  Governing Law.  This Agreement shall  be
       governed  by and subject to the laws of the  State

            (i)    Severability.    The   invalidity   or
       unenforceability  of any particular  provision  of
       this   Agreement  shall  not  affect   the   other
       provisions, and this Agreement shall be  construed
       in   all   respects   as  if   such   invalid   or
       unenforceable  provision had  not  been  contained
       herein.

            (j)    Captions.    The  captions   in   this
       Agreement  are  for convenience and identification
       purposes  only, are not an integral part  of  this

       duly  given  if  delivered in person  or  sent  by

            (l)     Waivers.     Except   as    otherwise
       specifically provided in this Agreement, no waiver
       by  either party hereto of any breach by the other
       party hereto of any condition or provision of this
       Agreement  to  be  performed by such  other  party
       shall  be deemed to be a valid waiver unless  such
       waiver is in writing or, even if in writing, shall
       be deemed to be a waiver of a subsequent breach of
       such  condition  or provision or  a  waiver  of  a
       similar  or  dissimilar provision or condition  at
       the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

            (m)  Gender.  The use of the masculine gender
       throughout   this   Agreement   is   solely    for
       convenience; thus, in cases where the Executive is
