EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment on Form 10-Q/A constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 of Ameren Corporation (Ameren), Union Electric Company (UE), Ameren Energy Generating Company (Genco), CILCORP Inc. (CILCORP), and Central Illinois Light Company (CILCO), which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on November 9, 2005.

This Amendment is being filed by Ameren, UE, Genco, CILCORP and CILCO solely to include preferability letters from their independent registered public accounting firm related to the accounting for emission allowances, as Ameren, UE, Genco, CILCORP and CILCO elected to change their accounting method for the classification of emission allowances from an inventory model to the intangible model. This revision does not affect the respective registrants’ previously reported consolidated statement of income for the three month period ended September 30, 2005, the statement of income or cash flows for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, or the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2005. In order to comply with certain requirements of the SEC’s rules in connection with the filing of this Amendment on Form 10-Q/A, this Amendment includes Part II, Item 6: Exhibits to reflect the filing of updated certifications of the principal executive and principal financial officers of Ameren, UE, Genco, CILCORP and CILCO and the inclusion of the preferability letters as Exhibits 18.1, 18.2, 18.3, 18.4, and 18.5. This Amendment No. 1 does not make any other changes to the registrants’ Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2005.

The Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 that was originally filed with the SEC on November 9, 2005 was a combined Form 10-Q that was separately filed by Ameren, UE, Central Illinois Public Service Company (CIPS), Genco, CILCORP, CILCO, and Illinois Power Company (IP) (collectively, the Ameren Companies). This Amendment does not constitute an amendment to the Form 10-Q filed by CIPS or IP for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Each of the Registrants is filing on its own behalf all of the information contained in this Amendment that relates to it. No Registrant is filing any information that does not relate to it, and therefore no Registrant makes any representation as to any such information.

Dear Directors:

We are providing this letter to you for inclusion as an exhibit to Ameren Corporation’s (Company) Form 10-Q/A filing pursuant to Item 601 of Regulation S-K for the period ended September 30, 2005.

We have been provided a copy of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as amended, for the period ended September 30, 2005. The Company elected to change its method of accounting for emission allowances from the inventory model to the intangible asset model effective July 1, 2005. This change had no effect on the consolidated statements of income and cash flows, and resulted in an immaterial reclassification to the consolidated balance sheet. Because this change in accounting did not materially affect the consolidated financial statements, the change is not specifically disclosed in the financial statement footnotes included in the Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2005. It should be understood that the preferability of one acceptable method of accounting over another for emission allowances has not been addressed in any authoritative accounting literature, and in expressing our concurrence below we have relied on management’s determination that this change in accounting principle is preferable. Based on our understanding of management’s reasons and justification for this change in accounting principle, and our discussions with management as to their judgment about the relevant business planning factors relating to the change, we concur with management that such change represents, in the Company’s circumstances, the adoption of a preferable accounting principle in conformity with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes.

The Company elected to change its method of accounting for emission allowances from the inventory model to the intangible asset model effective July 1, 2005. This change had no effect on the consolidated statements of income and cash flows, and resulted in an immaterial reclassification to the consolidated balance sheet. Because this change in accounting did not materially affect the consolidated financial statements, the change is not specifically disclosed in the financial statement footnotes included in the Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2005. It should be understood that the preferability of one acceptable method of accounting over another for emission allowances has not been addressed in any authoritative accounting literature, and in expressing our concurrence below we have relied on management’s determination that this change in accounting principle is preferable. Based on our understanding of management’s reasons and justification for this change in accounting principle, and our discussions with management as to their judgment about the relevant business planning factors relating to the change, we concur with management that such change represents, in the Company’s circumstances, the adoption of a preferable accounting principle in conformity with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes.


Very truly yours,
