Employee Stock Purchase and Savings Plan: We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of the CINERGY CORP. EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE AND SAVINGS PLAN as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the statements of income and other changes in plan equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan Administrator. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. 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 the Plan Administrator, 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 financial position of the Plan as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and changes in plan equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Note B - Accounting Principles The accounts of the Plan are maintained on an accrual basis. Activity and balances related to the PSI Plan are reflected in the financial statements as though the PSI Plan has always been part of the Plan. Note C - Investment Program Under the Plan, after-tax funds withheld from a participant's compensation during a 26-month offering period are deposited in an interest-bearing account (Purchase Savings Account) in the participant's name, either in a bank (the Bank) selected by the Company or in such an account maintained by the Company, as determined by the Plan's administration committee. Interest will be paid by the Bank or the Company at a rate at least equal to the rate a bank would pay on a regular statement savings account or at a comparable rate if paid by the Company. The amounts deposited in the Purchase Savings Account, plus interest paid thereon, will equal the total dollar amount the eligible employee may apply toward the purchase of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Plan. At the end of the offering period, each participant specifies the portion of the Purchase Savings Account to be applied to the purchase of Common Stock at a previously established purchase price. Funds not used to purchase Common Stock, including any interest earned over the 26-month period, are returned to the participant. Under the Plan, the purchase price of each share of Common Stock is equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the first date of the offering period, less 5%. The fair market value of a share of Common Stock is the average of the high and low sales prices of a share of Common Stock as reported in the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions published in The Wall Street Journal for such date or, if no trading occurs on such date, the last date on which trading occurred. The second offering under the PSI Plan allowed for the purchase of PSI's common stock at $18.05 per share on October 31, 1994. With respect to the second offering, an interim distribution was completed in February 1994 as a result of the PSI shareholder approval of the Cinergy merger in November 1993. The shareholder approval constituted a change in control under the Plan (see Note F below and the Plan prospectus for further details). Eligible employees purchased 71,188 shares of common stock at $18.05 per share on February 2, 1994, as a result of the interim distribution. The second offering period concluded October 31, 1994, after which the accumulated balance of $1,308,797 was used to purchase Common Stock or distributed in cash to participants. A total of 66,548 shares, valued at $1,174,168, were purchased by participants with the remaining $134,629 distributed in cash. The final option price to purchase Common Stock, adjusted for the merger conversion ratio of 1.023, was $17.644 per share. The initial offering under the Plan is a continuation of the third offering period under the PSI Plan. The share price established for this offering, which began November 1, 1994, for PSI Energy, Inc. employees and February 1, 1995, for The Cincinnati Gas & Electric Company employees, is $21.7312. The initial offering is deemed to have commenced on the first day of the third offering period under the PSI Plan and will end on December 31, 1996. The number of employees enrolled in the Plan at December 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993, were 2,943, 1,065, and 721, respectively. Employees of The Cincinnati Gas & Electric Company became eligible for participation in the Plan in February 1995. Note D - Income Tax Status The Plan is not regarded as an "employee benefit plan" under Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), and, therefore, is not subject to ERISA. The Plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Code). Amounts withheld from a participant's compensation for deposit in the participant's Purchase Savings Account are from after-tax dollars. Interest on the Purchase Savings Account is taxable to the participant in the year earned. Dividends paid after the shares are purchased are taxable to the participant in the year received. Gains or losses on sales of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the Plan must be reported to the Internal Revenue Service by the participant in the year of sale. Gains and losses may be characterized as ordinary or capital, as further described herein. Capital losses are available for offset against any capital gains, and in addition, any excess capital losses, whether long- or short-term, are allowed to offset up to $3,000 of ordinary income. Excess capital losses can be carried over to offset income in future years, subject to the same limitations. Section 423 of the Code imposes a holding period of two (2) years from the commencement of the offering period and one (1) year from the date of purchase. If the holding period is met, then the difference between the purchase price and the lesser of the fair market value of the Common Stock (i) on the first day of the offering period, or (ii) on the date of sale, is taxed as ordinary income in the year the Common Stock is sold. Any remaining gain is taxed as long-term capital gain. If the Common Stock is sold for less than the purchase price, the participant has a long-term capital loss. If the holding period is not met, then the difference between the purchase price and the fair market value at the time of purchase is taxed as ordinary income. The difference between the amount received upon disposition and the purchase price plus the amount of ordinary income is a capital gain or loss. Note E - Purchases of Common Stock, Terminations, and Withdrawals A participant may at any time, before the end of an offering period, terminate participation in the Plan. Upon termination, all funds, including interest, in the participant's Purchase Savings Account are returned to the participant without penalty. Requests for termination received but not yet processed by the Plan or reflected in the financial statements totaled $2,826 at December 31, 1993. There were no outstanding termination requests at the end of each 1994 and 1995. If a participant's employment with the Company or its subsidiaries is terminated, all funds, including interest, in the participant's Purchase Savings Account are returned to the participant. If termination is due to retirement, the participant may purchase all or fewer than all of the shares of Common Stock which may be purchased with the funds then on deposit in the participant's Purchase Savings Account within three months from the date of retirement but not later than the last day of the offering period. Funds not applied to purchase Common Stock are returned to the participant. If termination is due to death, the participant's legal representative or beneficiary may purchase all or fewer than all of the shares of Common Stock which may be purchased with the funds then on deposit in the participant's Purchase Savings Account within 12 months of the participant's death but not later than the last day of the offering period. Funds not applied to purchase Common Stock will be paid to the participant's legal representative or beneficiary. Note F - Change in Control, Amendment, and Termination In the event of a "change in control" of Cinergy as defined in the Plan prospectus, each participant has the right within three months from the "change in control" or the purchase date (as defined in the Plan prospectus), whichever is earlier, to elect to purchase all or fewer than all of the eligible shares. Cinergy, at any time by action of its board of directors, may alter, amend, modify, revoke, or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, or alter or amend any and all terms of participation in an offering made under the Plan, except with respect to provisions related to a "change in control" of the Company for a three-year period following such "change in control".
