The Application-Declaration in this file is hereby amended as follows:

     1.   Item 1, "Description of Proposed Transaction",  is hereby amended in
the following respects:

          a.   The first paragraph of Item 1 is deleted and the following
inserted in lieu thereof:

               "CINergy Corp. ("CINergy"), a registered holding company under
          the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended (the
          "Act"), and CINergy Investments, Inc. ("CINergy Investments"), a
          wholly-owned subsidiary of CINergy, hereby request approval and
          authorization of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
          "Commission") (i) to acquire, directly or indirectly, in one or more
          transactions, the securities of one or more companies (the "New
          Special Purpose Subsidiaries") organized for the purpose of engaging,
          directly or indirectly, and exclusively, in the business of acquiring,
          owning and holding the securities of, and/or providing services to,
          one or more "foreign utility companies" ("FUCOs") and/or "exempt
          wholesale generators" ("EWGs"), as defined in Section 33(a) and 32(a)
          of the Act, respectively; (ii) to make direct and indirect investments
          in New Special Purpose Subsidiaries and additional direct and indirect
          investments in certain existing subsidiary companies of CINergy (the
          "Existing Special Purpose Subsidiaries")/1/ in an aggregate amount at
          any one time outstanding not to exceed $115 million; and (iii) to
          retain (and for the Commission to release jurisdiction over) certain
          of the Existing Special Purpose Subsidiaries/2/ as to which the
          Commission reserved jurisdiction in its October 21, 1994 Order in File
          No. 70-8427 (the "October 21 Order")./3/  Authorization is also
          requested:  (iv) for the Special Purpose Subsidiaries to issue
          securities to persons other than CINergy and CINergy Investments for
          the purpose of financing investments by such Special Purpose
          Subsidiaries in EWGs and FUCOs, including non-recourse debt securities
          in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to
          exceed $300 million; (v) for the Special Purpose Subsidiaries to
          provide services to their subsidiaries and to other Special Purpose
          Subsidiaries and their subsidiaries; and (vi) to the extent not
          previously authorized by the Commission, for CINergy Services, Inc.
          ("CINergy Services"), a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary service
          company of CINergy, to provide services to the Special Purpose
          Subsidiaries and their subsidiaries, all in accordance with the terms
          and conditions set forth herein."

          b.   Section 4, captioned "External Financing By Special Purpose
Subsidiaries", is hereby amended by deleting the last sentence of the first
paragraph thereunder and substituting in lieu thereof the following:

               "It is proposed that the aggregate principal amount of
          non-recourse debt securities issued by the Special Purpose
          Subsidiaries to persons other than CINergy or CINergy Investments will
          not exceed $300 million at any one time outstanding.  No more than
          $200 million principal amount of such non-recourse debt securities at
          any time outstanding may be denominated in currencies other than U.S.
          dollars.  In any case in which CINergy or CINergy Investments directly
          or indirectly owns less than all of the equity interests of a Special
          Purpose Subsidiary, only that portion of the non-recourse indebtedness
          of such Special Purpose Subsidiary equal to CINergy's or CINergy
          Investments' equity ownership percentage shall be included for
          purposes of the foregoing limitations."

          c.   Section 6, captioned "Statement Pursuant to Rule 53", is hereby
amended by deleting the third sentence under the subcaption entitled "Rule
53(b)(2)" and inserting in lieu thereof the following:

          "Based on the investment authority proposed herein, CINergy's
          aggregate investment in EWGs and FUCOs ($115,000,000) will represent
          less than 2% of CINergy's total capital invested in utility
          operations."

2.   The following new item is added to the Application-Declaration as amended:

     "Item 8.  Power of Attorney.

          KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that each person signing below
     constitutes J. Wayne Leonard, Jackson H. Randolph and William L. Sheafer,
     and each of them, with full power to act without the others, his lawful
     attorney-in-fact and agent,  with full power of substitution and
     resubstitution, for him and in his name, in any capacity, to sign any
     further amendment to this Application-Declaration, and to file the same,
     with all exhibits thereto, and other documents in connection therewith,
     with the Commission granting unto the attorneys-in-fact and agents, and
     each of them, full authority to do each act necessary to be done, as fully
     to all purposes as he might do in person, hereby ratifying all that the
     attorneys-in-fact and agents or any of them, or their or his substitute or
     substitutes, may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof."
