To the Employees' Savings Plan of
Central Illinois Light Company:



We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan 
benefits of the Employees' Savings Plan of Central Illinois Light Company 
(the "Plan") as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statement of 
changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years ended 
December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991.  These financial statements and the 
schedules referred to below are the responsibility of the Plan's management.  
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and 
schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits as of 
December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in net assets available for plan 
benefits for the years ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991 in conformity 
with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules of assets 
held for investment and reportable transactions are presented for the purpose 
of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial 
statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of 
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee 
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  The supplemental schedules have been 
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic 
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material 
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

The Notes to Financial Statements are an integral part of this statement.


                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)  Description of Plan:          

CILCORP Inc. (CILCORP), a holding company, is the parent of Central Illinois 
Light Company (the Company).  The Company and CILCORP are occasionally 
hereinafter referred to as the "Employer."  The following description of the 
Company's Employees' Savings Plan (the Plan) provides only general 
information.  Participants should refer to the Plan Prospectus for a more 
complete description of the Plan's provisions.  

 (A) General - The plan is a defined contribution plan covering any employee 
     of the Employer electing to enroll in the Plan, including an officer, 
     who has completed at least one year of service (the completion of 1,000 
     hours of service during a 12 month period beginning on the employee's 
     first day of employment with the Employer).  Participation is voluntary.  
     The fiscal year of the Plan ends on December 31 of each calendar year.  
     The Committee administering the Plan delivers quarterly to each 
     participant a statement setting forth the value of the accounts of each 
     participant.  The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee 
     Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA).  

     Beginning October 1, 1991, Investment Fund B was changed from an 
     investment fund in the common stock of other companies to an equity 
     index investment fund (Wells Fargo Equity Index Fund).  The Investment 
     Manager for Fund B is Wells Fargo Nikko Investment Advisors of San 
     Francisco, California.  The Wells Fargo Equity Index Fund is invested in 
     virtually all Standard and Poor's (S&P) 500 Index stocks in their 
     appropriate capitalization weights.  The fund is designed to replicate 
     the returns of the S&P 500 Index, which accounts for about 75% of the 
     value of all publicly traded U.S. equities.  S&P 500 Index is a 
     composite of 400 industrial, 40 financial, 40 utility and 20 
     transportation common stocks.  The index is capitalization-weighted with 
     each stock weighted by its proportion of the total market value of all 
     500 issues.  

 (B) Contributions - Each participant may elect to have their salary or wages 
     reduced by an amount which is not less than 1% or more than 15% of their 
     base rate of pay up to a maximum dollar amount, which was $8,994 for 
     1993 (Pre-Tax Contribution).  The Employer will contribute to the Plan 
     an amount equal to 50% of each participant's Pre-Tax Contributions up to 
     a maximum of 6% of such participant's regular base pay.  Participants 
     may also elect to make regular after-tax contributions (Voluntary 
     Contributions) to the Plan in an amount which is not more than 10% of 
     their regular base pay.  Employees who receive, or are entitled to 
     receive, a distribution from a plan of a previous employer may be able 
     to transfer the distribution to an account under the Plan (Rollover 
     Contributions).  Reference is made to the Prospectus for details on the 
     guidelines and limitations for Pre-Tax Contributions, Voluntary 
     Contributions and Rollover Contributions.  

 (C) Vesting - Under the Plan all amounts credited to the participant's 
     accounts, including all Rollover Contributions, are fully vested at all 
     times and are not subject to forfeiture for any reason.  The Employer 

     has reserved the right to amend or terminate the Plan but has not 
     expressed any intention of doing so at this time.

(2)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

The Plan is on the accrual method of accounting.

Administration expenses of the Plan are paid by the Employer and, 
accordingly, are not reflected in the financial statements of the Plan.

The investment securities, except those in Fund D, are stated at market.  
Fund D investments in U.S. Treasury Bills are valued at cost and interest is 
recognized ratably up to the maturity date.  Fund D investments are short 
term in nature and typically held to maturity.  

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment assets represents the 
difference between the adjusted investment cost compared to the market value 
of the assets at the end of the plan year; no actual sales have taken place.  
The adjusted investment cost, termed "ERISA cost" within this document, is 
the value of the investment asset at the beginning of the Plan year or, for 
investments acquired during the year, the value at the time of purchase.  
Realized appreciation (depreciation) represents gains or losses from the 
actual sale of Plan assets in excess of or below the ERISA cost.  

(3)  Valuation of Accounts:

The amount of each participant's Employer Contribution Account, Pre-Tax 
Contribution Account, Rollover Account and Voluntary Contribution Account 
held in each Investment Fund, and the amount of each participant's Loan Fund 
Account, will be adjusted as follows and in the following order:

     (a)  As of the last business day of each calendar month or such other 
day designated by the Committee (Valuation Date), the amount of any 
distributions or withdrawals from each participant's account will be debited 
to the account and to the Separate Investment Fund from which paid.

     (b)  As of the Valuation Date, the amount of transfers between accounts 
made at the participant's request will be debited or credited, as 
appropriate, to the applicable account and to the Separate Investment Fund.

     (c)  As of the Valuation Date, the amounts of each participant's 
Rollover Contributions and Vested Transfers paid to the Trust Fund during the 
month shall be credited to the accounts and to the Separate Investment Funds 
to which allocated.

     (d)  As of each Valuation Date, the Trustee shall report to the 
Committee the fair market value of the assets of each Separate Investment 
Fund (Current Fair Market Value).  For each Separate Investment Fund, the 
Committee shall determine the factor representing the ratio between the 
Current Fair Market Value of the Separate Investment Fund and the value of 
each participant's account invested in the Separate Investment Fund as of the 
preceding Valuation Date, plus or minus adjustments made as of the Valuation 
Date pursuant to the Plan.  Each participant's account balance in each 
Separate Investment Fund shall then be adjusted by multiplying the account 
balance by the factor for the corresponding Separate Investment Fund.

     (e)  As of the Valuation Date, loans made to participants since the last 
Valuation Date and interest accrued thereon shall be credited to the 
participant's Loan Fund Account.  (See Note 6 for a discussion of the Loan 
Fund.)

     (f)  As of the Valuation Date, principal payments of participant loans 
received since the last Valuation Date shall be debited to the participant's 
Loan Fund Account, and principal and interest payments since the last 
Valuation Date shall be credited to the participant's Fund D account and to 
the Separate Investment Fund D.  As of November 1, 1993, principal and 
interest payments are invested in the same manner as the most recent 
investment selection designation by the Participant.  (See Note 6 for a 
discussion of the Loan Fund.)

     (g)  As of the Valuation Date, the amounts of each participant's Pre-Tax 
Contributions, Voluntary Contributions and Employer Matching Contributions 
shall be credited to the accounts and to the Separate Investment Funds to 
which allocated.

(4)  Investment of Funds:

The Company and First of America Bank - Illinois, N.A., Peoria, IL, have 
entered into a Trust Agreement under which the Bank will act as Trustee under 
the Plan.  The Company may change the Trustee and may amend or terminate the 
Trust Agreement provided no such amendment or termination or other action by 
the Company shall divert any part of the Trust Fund to purposes other than 
the exclusive benefit of participants.  Beginning October 1, 1991, the 
Company appointed Wells Fargo Nikko Investment Advisors, San Francisco, 
California, a registered investment advisor, as Investment Manager of Fund B 
of the Plan.  Previous to that date, Harris Associates, Inc. of Chicago, 
Illinois managed the fund.

Each month, all participant contributions and all Employer contributions are 
paid over to the Trustee and are held by it as a Trust Fund in which all 
contributions are invested and out of which all distributions are made.  The 
Trustee shall make all purchases and sales of securities for investment in or 
distribution from the Trust Fund on the basis of current market or redemption 
prices.

The Plan and the Trust thereunder provide that the Trust Fund shall consist 
of four separate Investment Funds:

     Fund A - Common stock of CILCORP Inc., together with all income thereon.

     Fund B - Wells Fargo Equity Index Fund, Series E, together with all 
              income thereon.

     Fund C - Obligations issued or fully guaranteed by the United States 
              Government or any agent or instrumentality thereof, as selected 
              by the Trustee at its sole discretion, together with all income 
              thereon.

     Fund D - Fixed income securities with a maturity of one year or less, as 
              selected by the Trustee at its sole discretion, together with 
              all income thereon.

In addition, a Loan Fund is maintained which consists of promissory notes 
evidencing loans made to participants.  (See Note 6 for a discussion of the 
Loan Fund.)

A participant may direct that his contributions and Employer contributions be 
invested entirely in Fund A, Fund B, Fund C, or Fund D, or in a combination 
of two or more Investment Funds, in multiples of 10%.  A participant may 
change his investment designation as of his first pay date in the months of 
January, April, July and October.  Contributions already invested in a 
particular Separate Investment Fund may be transferred by a participant to 
another Separate Investment Fund as of the first day of January, April, July 
and October.

Dividends, interest and any other income earned by an Investment Fund shall 
be reinvested in the same Investment Fund.

The Trustee and the Investment Manager, as applicable, may select the types 
of securities specified above to be purchased for Fund B, Fund C and Fund D 
and may from time to time purchase and sell any securities and reinvest the 
proceeds of any such sale.  

The Trustee will buy and sell CILCORP common stock for Fund A on a national 
securities exchange or elsewhere, as it may select.  The purchase price for 
the shares so purchased in any month will be the price paid for those shares 
in the open market, including any related brokerage commissions or service 
charges.  The Trustee may also buy such common stock on a monthly basis 
directly from CILCORP so long as CILCORP has available original issue common 
stock which it is authorized to sell to the Trustee.  The purchase price of 
such original issue common stock, if any is authorized and purchased, will be 
the average of the highest sale price and lowest sale price of CILCORP's 
common stock, as reported by The Wall Street Journal as Composite 
Transactions, during the first three days that such stock is traded each 
month.  The Trustee may maintain in cash such part of the assets of Funds B, 
C and D as it shall deem necessary or advisable.  Securities held in the 
Trust Fund may be registered in the name of the Trustee or its nominee.

As of December 31, 1993, 1,398 employees, or approximately 94% of the 1,490 
eligible employees, were active participants in the Plan.  The following 
summary shows the number of participants contributing to each fund as of 
December 31, 1993:


                  Fund                     Participants
                                            
                    A                          1,357
                    B                            689 
                    C                            467 
                    D                            853 
 


The total number of participants in the Plan was less than the sum of the 
number of active participants shown above because many were participating in 
more than one fund.

(5)  Related Party Transactions:

Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by First of 
America Bank - Illinois N.A.  First of America Bank - Illinois N.A. is the 
Trustee as defined by the Plan and, therefore, these transactions qualify as 
party-in-interest.  The Trustee of the Plan also invests in CILCORP common 
stock.  Since CILCORP is the parent company of CILCO any investment 
transactions involving CILCORP common stock qualify as related party 
transactions.  Wells Fargo Nikko Investment Advisors is the Investment 
Manager for Fund B of the Plan.  The Investment Manager invests certain 
assets of Fund B in various Wells Fargo mutual funds and, therefore, is 
considered a related party.  Investment management fees are paid by the 
Company and are not included in the Plan's financial statements.

(6)  Loan Fund:

Since September 1, 1988, participants have been allowed to borrow funds from 
their Plan accounts.  The minimum amount that can be borrowed is $1,000.  The 
maximum loan amount is the lesser of one-half of the participant's account 
balance or $50,000, with adjustments for certain previously outstanding 
loans. Participants must pledge the balance of their Plan accounts as 
security for the loans.  A participant may have a maximum of two Plan loans 
outstanding at any time.

Each Plan loan is evidenced by a written note providing for the repayment of 
principal and interest over a fixed time period.  These promissory notes are 
shown in the Statement of Financial Position under the caption "Loan Fund."  
The maximum repayment period is five years; however, a loan used to purchase 
a principal residence may have a longer repayment period as authorized by the 
Committee.  The interest rate charged on each loan is based upon the average 
lending rate on similar loans as determined each month by First of America 
Bank - Illinois, N.A.  Payments are generally made through payroll 
deductions.  Prepayment of the entire principal balance and interest is 
permitted without penalty after a minimum loan period of three months.  All 
Plan distributions for loans flow through Investment Fund D.  Principal and 
interest payments, however, flow through the various funds based upon the 
most current investment selection designation of the Participant.  

At December 31, 1993, there were 802 Plan loans outstanding totaling 
$4,213,970.

(7)  Federal Income Taxes:

The Company has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue 
Service that the Plan, as amended and restated effective January 1, 1985, 
meets the requirement of Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue 
Code of 1986 (the Code) and that the Trust Fund is exempt from Federal income 
tax under Section 501(a) of the Code.  The Plan has been amended since 
receiving the determination letter and will be further amended within the 
applicable retroactive amendment period.  The Plan Administrator believes 
that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the 
applicable requirements of the Code.  Therefore, the Plan Administrator 
believes that the Plan was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as 
of the financial statement date.  The Company will file a request for a 
determination from the Internal Revenue Service that the Plan, as amended and 

restated effective January 1, 1987, September 1, 1988, January 1, 1989, and 
January 1, 1992, continues to meet the requirements of Sections 401(a), 
401(k) and 401(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and the Trust Fund is 
exempt from tax under Section 501(a) of the Code.

The following is a description of certain federal income tax consequences 
regarding the operation of the Plan.  It is intended to be general in nature, 
and is based on the interpretations of present federal law and regulations 
which may be subject to change.  Each participant may wish to discuss 
specific questions with his own tax advisor or attorney.  In addition, there 
may be tax considerations under foreign, state and local laws applicable to 
participants.

                            Contributions to Plan

Amounts contributed by the Employer on behalf of an employee will be 
deductible by the Employer for federal income tax purposes, provided that the 
Plan and Trust continue to meet the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 
501(a) of the Code.  A participant will not be entitled to a deduction for 
income tax purposes for Voluntary Contributions he makes to the Plan.

Provided that the Plan meets the nondiscrimination requirements of Sections 
401(k) and 401(m) of the Code, amounts contributed by the Employer as Pre-Tax 
Contributions and Matching Contributions will not be included in the 
participant's gross income.

                           Earnings of Trust Fund

Income and appreciation on Pre-Tax Contributions, Matching Contributions and 
Voluntary Contributions will not be subject to income tax while held in the 
Trust Fund and will not be includable in the participant's taxable income 
until distributed to him, provided that the Plan and Trust continue to meet 
the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code.

            Withdrawal of Voluntary Contributions While Employed

If a participant, while remaining an employee of the Employer, withdraws his 
participant contributions or Voluntary Contributions, the amount withdrawn 
(when added to the amounts previously withdrawn which were considered a 
tax-free recovery of employee contributions) is not taxable if the amount 
does not exceed the sum of his participant contributions made prior to 
November 1, 1983 and his Voluntary Contributions made on or after November 1, 
1983 and before December 31, 1986.

If the amount withdrawn (when added to the amounts previously withdrawn which 
were considered a tax-free recovery of contributions) exceeds this sum, a 
portion of the withdrawal will be taxable to him.

Under the Plan, Voluntary Contributions made after December 31, 1986 and 
earnings thereon are accounted for separately ("Post-1986 Account"), and 
participants may designate that after first withdrawing all participant 
contributions and Voluntary Contributions made before January 1, 1987 that 
they will then withdraw contributions from their Post-1986 Accounts.  If a 
participant withdraws Voluntary Contributions from his Post-1986 Account, he 
will receive the distribution tax-free equal to the amount of withdrawal from 

the Post-1986 Account, multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the 
amount of Post-1986 Voluntary Contributions and the denominator of which is 
the amount of Post-1986 Voluntary Contributions, plus earnings thereon.

                            Lump-Sum Distribution

If a participant receives a distribution of his entire Account balances by 
reason of his termination of employment, disability, death, or after his 
attainment of age 59-1/2, the distribution will constitute a "lump-sum 
distribution."  A lump-sum distribution is taxable to the extent the value of 
the entire distribution exceeds the sum of:  (i)  the participant's 
contributions and Voluntary Contributions not previously withdrawn and (ii)  
any net unrealized appreciation (as discussed below) in value of any common 
stock included in the distribution.  However, a participant may elect to 
include net unrealized appreciation in his income in the year of 
distribution.  The taxable portion of the lump-sum distribution will be 
ordinary income which may qualify for a special five-year averaging provision 
if the participant has attained age 59-1/2 and has been a participant for 
five or more taxable years before the taxable year in which distribution is 
made.  A participant may elect the special five-year forward averaging 
provision only once.

     (a)  Net Unrealized Appreciation - Net unrealized appreciation is the 
excess of the fair market value of the common stock at the time of 
distribution over the basis of the common stock to the Trustee (generally, 
the fair market value of the common stock when acquired by the Trustee).  The 
net unrealized appreciation, excluded from a participant's income in the year 
of distribution, will be taxable as long-term capital gain to the extent the 
common stock is sold for an amount greater than the participant's basis in 
the common stock.  If the gain realized by the participant in a sale exceeds 
the amount of the net unrealized appreciation at the time of distribution, 
the gain will be taxed as long-term or a short-term capital gain depending 
upon whether the participant's holding period for the common stock sold is 
more than six months.  Since 1988, long-term and short-term capital gains 
have been taxed at the same rate.

     (b)  Capital Gains Treatment - If the employee became a participant 
before January 1, 1974, capital gains treatment may be accorded to the 
portion of the lump-sum distribution which is attributable to pre-1974 
participation; while not entirely clear, it appears that the employee must 
have been a participant for five or more years before the taxable year in 
which the distribution is made.  However, capital gains treatment is being 
phased out over a five-year period which began in 1988.  The amounts that 
would have qualified for capital gains treatment will be multiplied by a 
percentage in calculating the amount eligible for capital gains treatment, as 
follows:  1988, 95%; 1989, 90%; 1990, 50%; and 1991, 25%.  Beginning January 
1, 1992, the capital gains treatment is no longer available except under the 
special rule described below.

     (c)  Participants Who Attained Age 50 on or Before January 1, 1986 - 
Special rules apply if a participant had attained age 50 on or before January 
1, 1986.  If so, the participant may elect on a one-time basis to have the 
taxable portion of a lump-sum distribution taxed under a special ten-year 
averaging provision under 1986 income tax rates or the special five-year 
averaging provision under the then applicable income tax rates.  An election 

under this special rule to use either ten-year or five-year averaging prior 
to attaining age 59-1/2 means that the participant may not elect five-year 
forward averaging after he attains age 59-1/2.  Also, if the employee became 
a participant before January 1, 1974, and he has been a participant for five 
or more taxable years before the taxable year in which the distribution is 
made, he may elect on a one-time basis to have the taxable portion 
attributable to pre-1974 participation taxed as capital gains at a rate of 20 
percent.

     (d)  Direct rollover of Eligible Rollover Distribution - If a 
participant is eligible to receive a distribution from the Plan by reason of 
termination of employment, termination of the Plan or attainment of age 
59-1/2, he may elect to directly transfer all or part of the taxable portion 
of the cash and other property (or proceeds thereof) received in such 
distribution (to the extent its fair market value exceeds the amount of the 
participant's contributions and Voluntary Contributions not previously 
withdrawn) to:  (i)  another exempt employees' trust which is part of a 
"qualified" plan for Federal income tax purposes; (ii)  an "annuity" plan 
described in Section 403(a) of the Code, or (iii)  an "individual retirement 
account" or an "individual retirement annuity" ("IRA") and thereby avoid 
current taxation of the portion of the distribution directly transferred.  If 
a participant transfers all or part of a distribution to another qualified 
plan or IRA, he may not exclude the net unrealized appreciation on Company 
Stock he receives in a subsequent distribution.  If the spouse of a 
participant receives an eligible rollover distribution by reason of the 
participant's death, the spouse may directly transfer the taxable portion of 
such distribution to an individual retirement account or annuity and thereby 
avoid current Federal income taxation on the taxable portion of the 
distribution so directly transferred.  If a distribution is considered an 
"eligible rollover distribution," it will be subject to mandatory 20% 
withholding unless the recipient directly rolls the distribution to an IRA or 
the tax-qualified retirement plan of another employer.  Amounts not directly 
rolled over may still be rolled over to a qualified plan or an IRA within 
60 days of its receipt.  However, the portion of the distribution withheld 
for federal income taxes is subject to taxation at the time of the 
distribution unless the participant makes up that portion and contributes an 
amount equal to the entire distribution within the 60-day time limit.  Also, 
under these rules, a participant may withdraw less than 50% of his account 
balances and roll that amount over to another qualified plan or an IRA.  Any 
amounts properly rolled over are not subject to federal income taxation until 
they are withdrawn from the IRA or other qualified plan.  In addition, there 
are numerous exceptions and other special situations with regards to these 
provisions which are not described herein.

                             10% Additional Tax

Amounts distributed to a participant prior to his attaining age 59-1/2, or 
after incurring a disability, or to his beneficiary, are subject to a 10% 
additional income tax unless the distributions are made:  (1)  to the 
participant's beneficiary on or after his death; (2)  to a participant after 
he attains age 55 after terminating employment with the Company; (3)  to the 
participant on account of medical expenses to the extent they would be 
deductible, without regard to whether the participant itemizes deductions; or 
(4)  to the participant as part of a series of substantially equal periodic 
payments over his life expectancy or joint life expectancy of the participant 

and his spouse.  Other limited exceptions to the 10% additional income tax 
not described herein may apply.

                           Excess Distribution Tax

An excess distribution tax will apply if a participant receives lump-sum 
distributions from all tax-qualified plans, annuities and IRA's exceeding 
$750,000 in any year, or if the participant receives other than lump-sum 
distributions from all tax-qualified plans, annuities and IRA's exceeding 
$150,000 in any year.  The tax will be equal to 15% of the excess of 
distributions over $750,000 (if lump-sum distributions are received) or over 
$150,000 (if other than lump-sum distributions are received).  Any amounts 
rolled over to an IRA within 60 days of the distribution will not be 
considered for purposes of the excess distribution tax.  If a participant had 
benefits under all tax-qualified plans equal to at least $562,500 on August 
1, 1986, he may file an election to exempt his benefits as of August 1, 1986 
(and possibly earnings thereon) from the excess distributions tax.  If a 
participant makes this election, the excess distribution tax will apply if he 
receives lump-sum distributions from all tax-qualified plans, annuities and 
IRA's during one year exceeding $562,500, or if the participant receives 
other than lump-sum distributions from all tax-qualified plans, annuities and 
IRA's exceeding $112,500 in any year.

                                 Excise Tax

An excise tax will apply if distributions from the Plan do not begin before 
the required beginning date.  In general, the required beginning date is 
April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year during which the 
participant attains age 70-1/2.  The excise tax equals 50% of the minimum 
amount that is required to be distributed under the Code.

                             Federal Estate Tax

With respect to Federal estate tax, if distribution under the Plan is made in 
a single sum to the participant's estate as a result of the death of a 
participant or former participant, the amount of the distribution generally 
will be included in determining the taxable amount of the participant's 
estate.  An unlimited or $100,000 estate tax exclusion may, however, apply if 
certain requirements are met.  The distribution may be eligible for the 
Federal estate tax unlimited marital deduction if made to the participant's 
surviving spouse.

(8)  Realized Gain (Loss) on Investments Sold or Distributed:

Realized gains (losses) on investments for the year ended December 31, 1993 
represent gains (losses) from the actual sale of Plan assets (excluding 
common/collective trusts) in excess of or below the ERISA cost.  Gains or 
losses realized on distributions of CILCORP Inc. common stock to participants 
in settlement of their accounts are determined by the difference between the 
ERISA cost and the quoted market of the shares distributed.  (See Note 2 - 
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.)

(9)  Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) of Investments:

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments for the year ended 
December 31, 1993 was determined based on the value of the assets at the 
beginning of the Plan year or at the time of purchase for any assets acquired 
during the Plan year compared to the market value at the end of the year.  
Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments from common/collective 
trusts is excluded. (See Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting 
Policies.)
