REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED

PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Dayton Power and Light Company

Employee Savings Plan

Dayton, Ohio

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of The Dayton Power and Light Company Employee Savings Plan as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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 benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held at end of year as of December 31, 2006 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is 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. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. This supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

The Dayton Power and Light Company

Employee Savings Plan

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2006 and 2005

Note 1 - Plan Description:

(a)  General

The Dayton Power and Light Company Employee Savings Plan (the Plan), effective January 1, 1985, as amended, was established by the Board of Directors of The Dayton Power and Light Company (the Company) to provide eligible non-union employees of the Company and certain affiliated companies with a 401(k) plan.  The Plan is a defined contribution plan that is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), as amended.  A non-union employee becomes eligible for the Plan on the first day of the month following the first full calendar month the employee worked at least 160 hours.

(b)            Participant Contributions

An eligible participant may execute a salary deferral agreement directing the Company to contribute to the Plan on behalf of the participant up to 100 percent (in whole percentages) of regular compensation.  In addition, the participant may contribute up to 100 percent of incentive compensation.  Both salary deferral and incentive compensation contributions are subject to certain Internal Revenue Service (IRS) limitations.  Participants who would have attained age 50 before the close of the plan year are eligible to make additional “catch-up” contributions, subject to certain IRS limitations.

Effective October 1, 2006, all new employees are automatically enrolled in the 401(k) at a default contribution rate of 3% which is invested in the appropriate Retirement Income Fund.  Employees may opt out of this automatic election or choose to increase the percentage of deferrals.

Participants may also elect to direct a portion of a Company-sponsored welfare benefit plan into the Plan.  Contributions to the Plan from the welfare benefit plan were $19,530 and $20,116 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and are reported as Employee Contributions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits.

(c)             Employer Contributions

The Company may match $1.50 for every $1.00 of participant contributions, up to $2,000 annually, with DPL Inc. common stock, held in a separate DPL Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP Plan).

(d)  Vesting

Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions plus actual earnings thereon.  Employer matching contributions are held in the ESOP Plan and are cliff-vested 100 percent generally after three years’ service (five years if hired prior to January 1, 2002).  Forfeitures of employer matching contributions held in the ESOP Plan are used to reduce future employer matching contributions.

6




(e)  Participant Accounts

Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s elective deferrals and an allocation of employer contributions (if any), Plan earnings (losses) and any Plan expenses the Company may not elect to pay.  Participants can self-direct their contributions to a variety of investment options offered by the Plan with varied risk and return potential.

(f)  Payment of Benefits

In general, participants are eligible for lump-sum distributions upon termination of their employment and the submission and subsequent approval of an application for benefits.  Earlier distributions can occur for a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, death or disability.  Otherwise, distribution must occur within 60 days after the plan year in which the later of one of the following events occur:  65th birthday if already left the Company, 10th anniversary of participation if already left the Company or termination after age 65.  Participants are allowed to take distributions during employment if older than 59 1/2 and/or for a hardship as defined in the Plan document.

(g)  Plan Termination

Although the Company expects the Plan to continue indefinitely, it reserves the right to discontinue employer contributions or terminate the Plan at any time.  If the Plan should be terminated, in whole or in part, participants will be entitled to withdraw the full value of their accounts, or to the extent allowed by law.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

(a)  Basis of Accounting

The financial statements of the Plan have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

(b)  Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

7




(c)  Payment of Benefits

Benefit payments are recorded when paid.

(d)  Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

Investments are reported at fair value using quoted market prices.  Investments in mutual funds and money market funds are reported at fair value based on the fair value of the underlying net assets of the funds as determined by those funds.

Realized and unrealized gains and losses are based on the difference between the fair market values of the investments at the beginning of the year or the purchase date, and the fair market values at the end of the year or the sales dates, as applicable, and are reflected in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits.

Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date basis.  Dividend income is recorded on an ex-dividend basis. Capital gain distributions are included in dividends.

Note 3 - Related Party Transactions (Parties-in-Interest)

Certain Plan investment purchases and sales are shares of mutual funds managed by T. Rowe Price.  T. Rowe Price is the Trustee as defined by the Plan; therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.  During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, such purchases were $5,549,339 and $5,664,254, respectively, and such sales totaled $4,967,104 and $4,311,411 respectively.

Certain Plan investment purchases and sales are shares of DPL Inc. common stock.  During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, purchases of DPL Inc. common stock were $660,863 and $634,413, respectively, and sales of DPL Inc. common stock totaled $630,176 and $1,176,159, respectively.  The ending balance of DPL Inc. common stock represents approximately 15.1% and 15.4% of the Plan’s total investments as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

8




Note 4 - Contributions:

Participant contributions withheld by the Company are paid into the Plan as soon as administratively possible.

In 2006 and 2005, there were transfers of $62 and $312,668, respectively, between the Plan and the Savings Plan for Collective Bargaining Employees. These transfers reflect the movement of savings for employees who have changed from union to non-union status.

The Plan allows for participants who have completed ten years of participation in the ESOP and attained age 55 to transfer into the Plan a percentage of their DPL Inc. ESOP shares.  Such transfers during 2006 and 2005 totaled $154,643 and $58,241 respectively.

Note 5 - Administrative Expenses:

The Plan is administered by the Company, without charge to the Plan, and trusteed by T. Rowe Price Inc.  The Company has elected to pay the fees incurred in the administration of the Plan including the trustee’s compensation, expenses, and any broker’s fees incurred by the trust.

Note 6 - Benefits:

There were no benefit obligations to participants who have withdrawn from the Plan at December 31, 2006 and 2005.

Note 7 - Federal Income Taxes

The Plan is designed and being operated to be exempt from federal income tax as a qualified employee benefit plan under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).  The Plan received a determination letter from the IRS dated February 11, 2003 indicating the Plan is so qualified.  The Plan has been amended since receiving this determination letter.  However, the plan administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable IRC requirements.

9




Note 8 - Plan Amendment:

During 2005, the Plan was amended to allow for automatic payment of a participant’s vested balance upon termination, provided that the vested balance is less than $1,000 and the participant is less than 65 years old.

Note 9 – Risks and Uncertainties:

Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit.  Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to the changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term could materially affect the amounts reported in the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits.

Note 10 – Litigation Settlement Proceeds

During 2004, the Plan received $433,928 in proceeds from the settlement of a class action lawsuit filed against DPL Inc.  As of December 31, 2004, these proceeds were included in the Prime Reserve Fund.  During 2005, the Plan received an additional $90,689 in proceeds from the settlement.  In 2005 the Plan allocated these proceeds to the individual participant accounts for those participants who held DPL Inc. shares in their account during the period covered by the settlement agreement. There were no such proceeds in 2006.
