        1.  Item 1.A of the Application-Declaration, as 
previously amended (as so amended, the "Application"), is hereby 
amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 

         CINergy Corp. ("CINergy"), a registered holding company 
under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 (the "Act"), 
and CINergy Investments, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of 
CINergy ("CINergy Investments"), hereby request the Commission's 
authorization (1) 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 Sections 33(a) and 32(a) of the Act, respectively; 
and (2) to make nonexempt direct and indirect investments in New 
Special Purpose Subsidiaries and additional nonexempt direct and 
indirect investments in certain existing special purpose 
subsidiaries of CINergy (the "Existing Special Purpose 
Subsidiaries"),/1/ by means of equity and debt investments and 
guarantees and other forms of credit support in respect of debt 
securities of Special Purpose Subsidiaries, in an aggregate 
amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $115 million.    
Authorization is also sought (3) for the Special Purpose 
Subsidiaries to issue to nonassociates nonexempt equity 
securities for the purpose of financing investments by such 
Special Purpose Subsidiaries in EWGs and FUCOs; (4) for the 
Special Purpose Subsidiaries to provide services to their 
subsidiaries and to other Special Purpose Subsidiaries and their 
subsidiaries; and (5) to the extent, if any, not previously 
authorized by the Commission in its October 21, 1994 order in 
File No. 70-8427, Rel. No. 35-26146 (the "Merger Order"), for 
CINergy Services, Inc., CINergy's service company subsidiary 
("CINergy Services"), to provide services to the Special Purpose 
Subsidiaries and their subsidiaries.  Finally, CINergy requests 
authority to apply proceeds from securities issued or to be       
issued by it pursuant to outstanding Commission orders in File 
Nos. 70-8477 and 70-8521 for purposes of the proposed investments 
described herein. 

        CINergy and CINergy Investments propose that the 
authorizations requested in clauses (1), (2) and (3) above remain 
effective until the earlier of May 31, 1998 or the effective date 
of any rule(s) adopted by the Commission exempting any such 
transactions from the approval requirements of the Act.   
Applicants propose that no time limitation apply to the 
authorizations requested in clauses (4) and (5). 

        2.  The last sentence of the first paragraph of Item 1.C 
of the Application is hereby amended and restated to read as 
follows: 
            PSI Argentina, Costanera and EDEGEL have been 
certified by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission as EWGs/2/, 
and Energy Argentina is a FUCO. 

            3.   The second paragraph of Item 1.H is hereby 
amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows: 

           To provide further operational flexibility, it is also 
proposed that the Special Purpose Subsidiaries have authority to 
provide their subsidiaries, and other Special Purpose 
Subsidiaries and their subsidiaries, with all services necessary 
or desirable for their operations, including, without limitation, 
management, administrative, employment, tax, accounting, 
engineering, consulting, utility performance, and electronic data 
processing services, and software development and support 
services in connection therewith.  No Special Purpose Subsidiary 
(including any subsidiary thereof) engaged in receiving any such 
services will derive, directly or indirectly, any material part 
of its income from sources within the United States; nor will any 
such entity operate as a public utility company within the United 
States.  Accordingly, it is proposed that any such services 
provided by the Special Purpose Subsidiaries and their 
subsidiaries to each other be exempt from the  at cost standards 
of and rules promulgated under Section 13(b) of the Act pursuant 
to Section 13(b)(1) and Rule 83(a). 

        4.  The penultimate paragraph of Item 3 of the 
Application is hereby amended and restated to read in its 
entirety as follows: 

             The transactions proposed herein will be carried out 
in accordance with the procedures specified in Rule 23.  CINergy 
proposes to comply with the procedures specified in Rule 24 by 
filing a report with the Commission within 60 days after the end 
of each calendar quarter.  Each report will include:  (1) a  
balance sheet as of the end of the quarterly reporting period; 
(2) an income statement for the quarterly reporting period; (3) a 
breakdown of the amounts of Recourse Debt Securities issued to 
third parties by Cinergy Investments or the Special Purpose 
Subsidiaries for the quarterly reporting period; (4) a general    
description of the activities of Cinergy Investments and the 
Special Purpose Subsidiaries for the quarterly reporting period 
and of the projects in which they or their subsidiary companies 
have an ownership interest; and (5) information on intercompany 
service transactions (including those provided at cost and at 
market rates) involving affiliated companies for the quarterly 
reporting period, including (a) the name of each associate 
company providing services and the associate company recipient; 
(b) a listing of services provided; and (c) the total dollar      
amount of services provided, by associate company service 
provider.
