Item 5. Other Events
--------------------------
Illinova Corporation (Illinova), parent of Illinois Power
Company (IP), has entered into an agreement in principle with
Soyland Power Cooperative (Soyland) for the possible purchase of
Soyland's assets. Under the proposal, IP would continue to meet
the bulk power needs of the 21 electric distribution cooperatives
who are members of and have requirements contracts with Soyland.
Soyland's member cooperatives serve approximately 160,000
customers throughout Illinois.
Under the proposal, the bulk power rates to Soyland's member
cooperatives would be lowered, based on a reduction of Soyland's
indebtedness to the Rural Utilities Service (formerly the Rural
Electrification Administration). A significant reduction in this
debt is a condition of the potential transaction. As proposed,
the transaction would not involve cash, but only the assumption
of liabilities in return for assets. If the outstanding
indebtedness is reduced and ongoing negotiations proceed
successfully in accordance with the parameters set forth in the
agreement in principle, the assets acquired would include
Soyland's 13% interest in the Clinton Power Station, Soyland's
coal-fired plant having a generating capacity of approximately 26
megawatts, and two diesel generating plants. Still under
negotiation is the extent to which the sale may include
facilities used in transmission.
The transaction is subject to further negotiation and any
definitive agreement will be subject to regulatory approvals.
