ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.

         On June 24, 2002, Dynegy Inc. ("Dynegy"), the wholly owning parent
company of Dynegy Holdings Inc. ("Dynegy Holdings"), issued a press release
providing an overview of its new $2 billion capital plan designed to further
strengthen liquidity, reduce debt and emphasize financial transparency and to
allow Dynegy to compete in its core energy businesses. Dynegy indicated that it
would reduce its common stock dividend by 50 percent beginning in the third
quarter of 2002 and that it had received commitments to eliminate $301 million
in credit ratings triggers. Dynegy also announced that because Arthur Andersen
LLP can no longer perform services for Dynegy, Dynegy's new independent auditor,
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, will conduct a re-audit of Dynegy's 2001 results as
part of Dynegy's previously announced 2001 restatement process.

         On June 19, 2002, Dynegy issued a press release announcing that Robert
D. Doty, Jr., Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Dynegy and
Dynegy Holdings, had resigned and that Louis J. Dorey had been appointed to
replace him. Dynegy issued a separate press release on June 19th announcing a
targeted work force reduction impacting approximately 340 employees.

         Copies of Dynegy's June 24, 2002 and two June 19, 2002 press releases
