                      -------------------------

      3.1  Supplemental Benefit.
      --------------------------

Subject to the following provisions of this Article III, if the Officer
remains a full-time employee, has five or more years of Continuous
Employement as an Officer,  and remains an  Officer of the Company until his
or her Normal Retirement Date, the Officer shall receive a Supplemental
Benefit equal to 50% of the Officer's Final Average Earnings, reduced by the
sum of:

                (i)    the monthly benefit payable to the Officer from the
                       Pension Plan;

           plus

                (ii)   the monthly benefit payable to the Officer from the
                       nonqualified Excess Retirement Plan;

                                       3

                (iii)  the monthly amount of the Officer's Prior Employer
                       Benefit.

The Supplemental Benefit shall be paid in (i) equal monthly installments,
commencing on the first day of the month following the Officer's retirement
from the Company as both an Officer and an employee and ending when 216
monthly payments have been made to the Officer -, (ii) an immediate single
lump sum, or (iii) a single lump sum deferred in accordance with the
provisions of the Alliant Energy Key Employee Deferred Compensation Plan
("KEDCP").  The Officer must indicate the desired form of payment by
submitting a distribution election form to [insert contact for completed
election forms] at least 12 months before his or her expected benefit
commencement date.  If no election is on file, the default election is the
monthly installment option described in (i) above.

If the Officer elects to defer his or her benefit as described in (iii)
above, the benefit will be considered eligible compensation for participant
deferrals (according to Article 4.1 of the KEDCP) and the provisions and
procedures set forth in the KEDCP will apply regarding participant elections,
investment options, and election for payment of benefits [currently requires
24 months for election change to be valid].

           (a)  For the purposes of Subparagraph (a), the amount of the
Officer's monthly benefit from the Pension Plan shall be determined as follows:

                (i)   If the Officer receives a joint and survivor annuity from
           the Pension Plan and the Officer's Surviving Spouse is the joint
           annuitant, the Officer's monthly benefit from the Pension Plan
           shall be the monthly amount payable to the Officer under such joint
           and survivor annuity.

                (ii)  If the Officer receives a single life annuity from the
           Pension Plan, the Officer's monthly benefit from the Pension Plan
           shall be the monthly amount payable to the Officer under such
           single life annuity.

                (iii) If the Officer receives any other form of payment from
           the Pension Plan, such other form of payment shall be converted to
           an actuarially equivalent single life annuity, using the actuarial
           assumptions then in use for such purpose under the Pension Plan,
           and the Officer's monthly benefit from the Pension Plan shall be
           the monthly amount that would be payable to the Officer under such
           single life annuity.

                (iv)  If a portion of the Officer's benefits under the Pension
           Plan have been awarded to an Alternate Payee pursuant to a
           qualified domestic relations order, as defined in Section 414(p) of
           the Internal Revenue Code, the Officer's monthly benefit from the
           Pension Plan shall be deemed to be the amount that would have been
           payable to the Officer if no such order had been entered.

                                       4


                (v)   The Officer's monthly benefit from the Pension Plan shall
           be determined as though it had commenced on the same date as the
           Officer's Supplemental Benefit, regardless of when the Officer's
           Pension Plan benefit actually commences.

                (vi)  Any increase in the monthly amount of the Officer's
           Pension Plan benefit shall correspondingly reduce the monthly
           amount of the Officer's Supplemental Benefit unless the Board of
           Directors provides by resolution that the Supplemental Benefit
           shall not be so reduced.

          (b)   For the purposes of Subparagraph (a), the monthly amount of the
                Officer's Prior Employer Benefit shall be determined, and
                shall be included in the computation of the Supplemental
                Benefit, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Board of
                Directors.

          (c)   The lump sum payment amount provided under this Section shall
                be determined by converting the monthly installment benefit
                described in this Section into an actuarially equivalent
                lump-sum value, using the SRP lump-sum discount rate, which
                will be based on the lessor of (i) the 12-month average of
                10-year Treasury Yields (meaning Federal Reserve U.S. Treasury
                ten-year actively traded securities) in effect as of the
                beginning of the fiscal year in which the lump sum benefit
                commences or (ii) the FAS interest rate in effect as of the
                beginning of the fiscal year in which the lump sum benefit
                commences.  The mortality table shall be the same table as
                then in use for determining lump sums under the Alliant Energy
                Cash Balance Pension Plan.  The Board of Directors, however,
                reserve the right to modify this rate for eligible executives
                at its discretion, provided that the Board shall give 12
                months' notice before increasing the discount rate (thereby
                giving Officers the opportunity to make new distribution
                elections should they so choose).

      3.2  Officer's Death After Receiving Twelve Years of Benefit Payments.
      ----------------------------------------------------------------------
If the Officer dies after receiving at least 144 monthly Supplemental Benefit
payments, the Officer's Supplemental Benefit shall terminate upon the
Officer's death (with the full monthly payment being made for the month in
which such death occurs), and the Company shall have no further obligation to
make any payments under this Article.

      3.3  Officer's Death Prior to Receiving Twelve Years of Benefit Payments.
      -------------------------------------------------------------------------

           (a)  If the Officer dies after the commencement of Supplemental
Benefit payments but prior to receiving 144 monthly payments, the Officer's
Surviving Spouse (if any) shall continue to receive the monthly payments
determined under Paragraph 3.1 until the date on which the Officer and such
Surviving Spouse have received a total of 144 monthly payments.  If both the
Officer and the Officer's Surviving Spouse die before they have received a
total of 144 monthly payments, the monthly payments determined under
Paragraph 3.1 shall continue to be paid to the Officer's Dependent Children
until a total of 144 monthly Supplemental Benefit payments have been made to
the Officer, the Officer's Surviving Spouse, and the Officer's Dependent
Children.

           (b)  Payments under this Paragraph 3.3 shall be made only to the
Officer's Surviving Spouse and Dependent Children, and in no event shall such
payments be made to the estate or heirs of the Officer, to the estates or
heirs of the Officer's Surviving Spouse or Dependent Children, or to any
persons other than the Officer's Surviving Spouse or Dependent Children.  If
a payment to Dependent Children is due on a date when there is more than one
Dependent Child, such payment shall be equally divided among those persons
who qualify as Dependent Children on the date the payment is due.  If the
Officer is deceased and there are no individuals who qualify as the Officer's
Surviving Spouse or Dependent Children on the date a payment is due, the
Company shall have no further obligation to make payments under this Article.

           receives any other form of payment under the Pension Plan, such

           equivalent single life annuity, using the actuarial assumptions
           then in use for such purpose under the Pension Plan, and the
           Surviving Spouse's monthly benefit from the Pension Plan shall be
           the monthly amount that would be payable to the Surviving Spouse
           under such single life annuity.

                (ii)  If a portion of the Officer's or the Surviving Spouse's
           Pension Plan benefit has been awarded to an Alternate Payee
           pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, as defined in

           such order had been entered.

                (iii) The Surviving Spouse's monthly benefit from the Pension
           Plan shall be determined as though it had commenced on the same
           date as the Surviving Spouse's death benefit, regardless of when

           shall not be so reduced.

rights to receive benefits under this Agreement unless the Officer retires
with a right to an immediate benefit under Article III or IV within 30 days
after the loss of such position.

                             ARTICLE IX

                               -------

      9.1  Unsecured Obligation.  The Company's obligations under this
      -------------------------
Agreement are an unsecured promise to make benefit payments in the future,
and nothing herein shall be construed as giving the Officer or his or her
beneficiaries any right, title, interest or claim in or to any specific
asset, fund, reserve, account or property owned by the Company, or in which
the Company has any right, title or interest, either now or in the future.
The rights of the Officer and his or her beneficiaries to receive payments
under this Agreement shall be solely those of unsecured general creditors of
the Company.

      9.2  "Rabbi" Trust.  This Agreement is intended to be unfunded for the
      ------------------
purposes of the Internal Revenue Code and the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended.  However, nothing in this Agreement shall
preclude the Company from establishing a trust (of the type commonly known as
a "rabbi trust") to assist it in meeting its obligations under this
Agreement.  If a rabbi trust was established with respect to the Officer's
Prior Agreements, this Agreement shall be substituted for the Prior
Agreements for all purposes of such trust, and any reference in such trust to
the Prior Agreements shall be deemed to be a reference to this Agreement.

      10.1 Administration and Interpretation.  The Board of Directors has sole
      --------------------------------------
and exclusive discretion to interpret the provisions of this Agreement, and
any such interpretation shall be final and binding upon the Officer unless it

capricious.  The Board of Directors may adopt such rules and regulations
relating to the administration of this Agreement as it may deem necessary or
advisable.

      10.2 Claims Procedure.  If the Officer or the Officer's beneficiary
      ---------------------
(hereinafter referred to as a "Claimant") is denied any benefit under this
Agreement, he or she may file a claim with the Board of Directors.  The Board
of Directors shall notify the Claimant within 90 days of its allowance or
denial of the claim, unless the Claimant receives written notice from the
Board of Directors prior to the end of such 90 day period that special
circumstances require an extension of the time for decision, which extension
shall not exceed an additional 90 days.  The notice of the Board of
Directors' decision shall be in writing sent by mail to Claimant's last known
address and, if a denial of the claim, and shall contain:

           (a)  the specific reasons for the denial;

           (b)  specific references to pertinent provisions of this Agreement
      on which the denial is based; and

           (c)  if applicable, a description of any additional information or
      material necessary to perfect the claim, an explanation of why such
      information or material is necessary and an explanation of the claim

      10.3 Review Procedure.
      ----------------------

           (a)  A Claimant is entitled to request a review of any denial of
his or her claim for a benefit.  The request for review must be submitted to
the Board of Directors in writing within 60 days of mailing of the notice of
the denial.  Absent a request for review within the 60 day period, the claim
will be deemed to have been conclusively denied.

           (b)  The review shall be conducted by the Board of Directors, which
shall afford the Claimant a hearing and the opportunity to review all
pertinent documents and submit issues and comments orally and in writing.
The Board of Directors shall render a decision within 60 days after receipt

the necessity of holding a hearing) the Board of Directors may extend the
time for decision by not more than 60 days upon written notice to the
Claimant.  The Claimant shall receive written notice of the Board of
Directors' decision, together with specific reasons for the decision and
references to the pertinent provisions of this Agreement which form the basis
for the decision.

                             ARTICLE XI
                      AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION
                      -------------------------

      11.1 By the Parties.  Except as provided in Paragraph 11.2, this
      -------------------
Agreement may not be amended or terminated except by a written instrument
signed by both parties.

      11.2 By the Company.  At any time prior to the Officer's termination of
      -------------------
employment with a right to receive benefit payments under this Agreement,
this Agreement may be terminated or amended by action of the Board of
Directors in its sole and absolute discretion, without any notice to or the
consent or approval of the Officer; provided, that:

           (a)  this Agreement may not be amended or terminated by the Board
      of Directors unless a similar amendment or termination is made with
      respect to all similar agreements between the Company and its Eligible
      Officers; and

           (b)  this Agreement may not be amended or terminated in a manner
      that would reduce or impair the Officer's right to receive payment of
      his or her Accrued Benefit if the Officer subsequently retires under
      circumstances that would have entitled the Officer to a benefit if this
      Agreement had not been amended or terminated.  For the purposes of this
      Subparagraph (b), the Officer's "Accrued Benefit" is an amount equal to
      one-fifteenth of the Supplemental Benefit the Officer would have been be
      entitled to receive at retirement if this Agreement had not been amended
      or terminated, multiplied by the Officer's years of Continuous
      Employment (up to a maximum of 15 years) on the date the Agreement is
      amended or terminated.

Subject to the foregoing, the right of the Board of Directors to amend or
terminate this Agreement shall include the absolute discretion to make any
amendment prospective or retroactive in application.

                             ARTICLE XII
                        RESTRICTIVE COVENANT
                        --------------------

      12.1 Covenant Not to Compete.  Notwithstanding anything in this
      ----------------------------
Agreement to the contrary, it is expressly agreed that all payments under
this Agreement shall terminate, and that the Company shall have no further
obligation under this Agreement, upon any violation of the provisions of
Paragraph 12.2.  Payments pursuant to this Agreement are intended to serve as
consideration for this covenant not to compete.

                                       12


      12.2 Scope of Covenant.  If, during the period set forth herein and
      ----------------------
within the service area in which the Company or any of its affiliated
companies provides utility services (or in the case of any non-utility
business, within the geographic area served by such business), the Officer
accepts employment with or becomes a consultant to, or the Officer becomes a
partner or shareholder in, any business that is in competition with the
business of the Company or any of its affiliated companies, and the Officer
fails to terminate such position within 30 days after notice from the Board
of Directors of the violation of this covenant not to compete, the Officer
and the Officer's beneficiaries shall forfeit all rights to future payments
under this Agreement.  However, the Officer may hold up to a five percent
interest in any company that is traded on the New York Stock Exchange,
American Stock Exchange or other national or over-the-counter exchange
without violating the provisions of this Paragraph 12.2.  Any violation of
the provisions set forth above during the period commencing on the date of
the Officer's termination of employment with the Company and ending on the
third anniversary of such date shall constitute a violation of this Article
and shall result in the termination of all future payments under this
Agreement.  The determination of the Board of Directors as to whether a
business is in competition with the Company and whether the competition is
occurring in the geographic area designated above shall be controlling for
purposes of this Agreement.

      12.3 Reasonableness of Restrictions.  The Officer agrees that the
      -----------------------------------
restrictions set forth in this Article XII including, but not limited to, the
time period and the geographical area of such restrictions are fair and
reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the interests of
the Company and its affiliated companies.  In the event that, notwithstanding
the foregoing, any of the provisions of this Article XII shall be held to be
invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions thereof shall nevertheless
continue to be valid and enforceable as though the invalid or unenforceable
parts had not been included.  In the event that any provision of this Article
XII relating to the time period and/or the areas of restriction shall be
declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the maximum time
period or areas such court deems reasonable and enforceable, the time period
and/or areas of restriction deemed reasonable and enforceable by said court
shall become and thereafter be the maximum time period and/or areas.

                            ARTICLE XIII
                         GENERAL PROVISIONS
                         ------------------

      13.1 Assignability of Benefits.  Neither the Officer nor his or her
      ------------------------------
beneficiaries shall have the power to transfer, assign, anticipate, mortgage
or otherwise encumber any right to receive a payment in advance of such
payment, and any attempted transfer, assignment, anticipation, mortgage or
encumbrance shall be void.  No payment shall be subject to seizure for
payment of public or private debts, judgments, alimony or separate
maintenance, or be transferable by operation of law in the event of
bankruptcy, insolvency or otherwise.

      13.2 Applicable Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
      -------------------
in accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin, except to the extent
the same are superseded by applicable federal law.

                                       13


      13.3 Tax Withholding.  The Company shall withhold all applicable income
      --------------------
and other taxes required on all payments under this Agreement.

      13.4 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, which
      -----------------
together shall constitute written evidence of the complete agreement of the
parties.

      13.5 Headings.  The headings in this Agreement are for convenience only
      -------------
and shall not be used to interpret or construe its provisions.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have hereto set their respective hands
on the day and year first above written.
