CILCO's electric revenues are allocated between electric generation and electric
distribution activities according to utility rate base. AES generation revenues
are derived from the total generation revenues earned by AES subsidiaries times
the percentage ownership interest of AES in those subsidiaries.

There has been no change in the amount of capacity owned by CILCO and a 988 MW
increase in the amount of capacity owned by AES from 29,066.67 to 30,054.67 MW
since June 30, 2000. There has also been an 11.3% increase in the total revenues
earned

revenues are derived from the total distribution revenues earned by AES
subsidiaries times the percentage ownership interest of AES in those
subsidiaries.

The total transmission and distribution assets owned by AES and CILCO have
increased by 1.7% since June 30, 2000 and the total revenues derived from such
assets has increased by 15.3% since June 30, 2000. CILCO's transmission and
distribution assets and the revenues derived from such assets have increased
slightly since June 30, 2000 while AES' transmission and distribution assets and
the revenues derived from such assets have increased more substantially since
June 30, 2000. Accordingly, CILCO's percentage of the total transmission and
distribution assets has remained the same at 4.6% and CILCO's percentage of the
total revenues from such assets has decreased from 11.1% to 9.7% since June 30,
2000.
