       Re:  Cinergy Corp./ File No. 70-8867

Ladies and Gentlemen:

       I am Associate General Counsel of Cinergy Corp. ("Cinergy"), a
Delaware corporation and registered holding company under the Public
Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended (the "Act") and am
furnishing this opinion as an exhibit to Cinergy's Application on Form U-1
in the above file, as amended by Post-Effective Amendments Nos. 1 and 2
(the latter being filed concurrently herewith) (as so amended, and as it
may be further amended, the "Application"). 
       
     In the Application, Cinergy requests authority to make an
additional investment in the Nth Power Technologies Fund I, L.P. (the
"Fund"), and thereby to acquire an additional limited partnership interest
therein, all as more particularly described in the Application.  In
connection with this opinion, I have reviewed the Application and such
agreements, instruments and other materials as I have deemed necessary or
appropriate in order to render this opinion.

       I am a member of the Bar of the State of Ohio and do not purport to
be an expert on the laws of any other jurisdiction.  I have examined the
Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL") to the extent necessary to
express the opinions set forth herein.  The opinions expressed below are
limited solely to matters governed by the laws of the State of Ohio and the
DGCL.  

       Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and assuming that the
proposed transactions are carried out in accordance with the Application
and the Commission's order to be issued with respect thereto, together with
any requisite corporate authorizations applicable to Cinergy's
participation, I am of the opinion that: 
       
     (a)  All state laws applicable to Cinergy's participation in the
          proposed transactions will have been complied with.
     
     (b)  Cinergy will legally acquire the additional limited partnership   
   interest in the Fund to be acquired by it. 
     
     (c)  The consummation of the proposed transactions will not violate
          the legal rights of the holders of any securities issued by
          Cinergy or any associate company thereof.
     
     I hereby consent to the use of this opinion in connection with the
  Application.  
     
                                Very truly yours,
                                /s/ Jerome A. Vennemann
                                Associate General Counsel
