AES generation revenues are derived from the total generation revenues earned by AES subsidiaries times the percentage ownership interest of AES in those subsidiaries. There has been no change in the amount of generation capacity owned by CILCORP and a 2,788 MW increase in the amount of generation capacity owned by AES (excluding CILCORP and IPALCO) from 35,936 to 38,724 MW since September 30, 2001. There has been a 10.8% increase in the total revenues earned from the capacity owned by AES and CILCORP in the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2001 compared with the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2001. The percentage of total revenues derived from the generation capacity owned by CILCORP has decreased from 4% to 3%. The physical location of the MW capacity added by AES since September 30, 2001 is in the United States, Argentina, Republic of South Africa, Nigeria, Chile and China. ITEM (4) PER EXEMPTION ORDER - ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION AND GAS DISTRIBUTION: Electric transmission and distribution and gas distribution assets owned as of December 31, 2001 (millions of dollars): CILCORP 746 Total AES (excluding CILCORP)(2) 7,004 ----- Total 7,750 Electric transmission and distribution and gas distribution revenues for 12 months ending December 31, 2001 (millions of dollars): CILCORP 507 AES (excluding CILCORP)(3) 5,372 ----- Total 5,879 ----------- (1) Includes revenues from electric generating capacity owned by IPALCO. (2) Includes transmission and distribution assets owned by IPALCO. (3) Includes revenues from transmission and distribution assets owned by IPALCO. 20 CILCORP's electric revenues are allocated between electric generation and electric transmission and distribution activities according to utility rate base. AES transmission and distribution revenues are derived from the total revenues earned by AES transmission and distribution subsidiaries by multiplying these revenues by the percentage ownership interest of AES in those subsidiaries. The total transmission and distribution assets owned by AES and CILCORP have increased since September 30, 2001. CILCORP's transmission and distribution assets have decreased while the revenues derived from such assets have decreased since September 30, 2001. AES' transmission and distribution assets have increased and the revenues derived from such assets have decreased since September 30, 2001. CILCORP's percentage of the total transmission and distribution assets has decreased from 11% to 10% and CILCORP's percentage of the total revenues from such assets remained the same at 9% for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2001 compared to the twelve-month period ending September 30, 2001. ITEM (5) PER EXEMPTION ORDER: CILCO has not sold or transferred any electric and/or gas utility assets to any affiliate company of the AES consolidated holding company system during the fourth quarter of 2001. ITEM (6) PER EXEMPTION ORDER: During the fourth quarter of 2001, no application has been made to nor has any order been received from the Illinois Commerce Commission that involves AES' ownership position or AES' oversight over the operations of CILCO or CILCORP.
