      of the

      by a corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by a director who is
      wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding
      to which the director was a party by reason of the director being or having
      been
      a director of the corporation. Section 23-1-37-10 of the IBCL states that a
      corporation may, in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, reimburse
      reasonable expenses incurred by a director who is a party to a proceeding if
      the
      director furnishes the corporation with a written affirmation of the director&#8217;s
      good faith belief that the director acted in good faith and reasonably believed
      the actions were in the best interest of the corporation if the proceeding
      is a
      civil proceeding. If the proceeding is criminal, the director must furnish
      a
      written affirmation that the director had reasonable cause to believe he was
      acting lawfully or the director or officer had no reason to believe the action
      was unlawful. The director will repay the advance if it is ultimately determined
      that such director did not meet the standard of conduct required by the IBCL
      and
      that those making the decision to reimburse the director determine that the
      facts then known would not preclude indemnification under the IBCL.

Item
      6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Vectren's
      Articles and By-laws provide that Vectren will indemnify any individual who
      is
      or was a director or officer of Vectren, or is or was serving at the request
      of
      Vectren as a director, officer, partner or trustee of another foreign or
      domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan
      or other enterprise whether or not for profit, against liability and expenses,
      including attorneys fees, incurred by him in any action, suit, or proceeding,
      whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, and whether formal
      or
      informal, in which he is made or threatened to be made a party by reason of
      being or having been in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as
      such,
      except (i) in the case of any action, suit, or proceeding terminated by
      judgment, order, or conviction, in relation to matters as to which he is
      adjudged to have breached or failed to perform the duties of his office and
      the
      breach or failure to perform constituted willful misconduct or recklessness;
      and
      (ii) in any other situation, in relation to matters as to which it is found
      by a
      majority of a committee composed of all directors not involved in the matter
      in
      controversy (whether or not a quorum) that the person breached or failed to
      perform the duties of his office and the breach or failure to perform
      constituted willful misconduct or recklessness. Vectren may pay for or reimburse
      reasonable expenses incurred by a director or officer in defending any action,
      suit, or proceeding in advance of the final disposition thereof upon receipt
      of
      (i) a written affirmation of the director's or officer's good faith belief that
      such director or officer has met the standard of conduct prescribed by Indiana
      law; and (ii) an undertaking of the director or officer to repay the amount
      paid
      by Vectren if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer is not
      entitled to indemnification by Vectren.
Vectren's
      Articles and By-laws provide that the indemnification rights described above
      are
      in addition any other indemnification rights a person may have by law or by
      contract. Vectren expects that employment agreements with its executive officers
      will require Vectren to indemnify the executive officers in accordance with
      its
      indemnification policies for its senior executives, subject to applicable
      law.
Section
      23-1-37
et
      seq
.
      of the
      IBCL provides for "mandatory indemnification," unless limited by the articles,
      by a corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by a director who is
      wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding
      to which the director was a party by reason of the director being or having
      been
      a director of the corporation. Section 23-1-37-10 of the IBCL states that a
      corporation may, in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, reimburse
      reasonable expenses incurred by a director who is a party to a proceeding if
      the
      director furnishes the corporation with a written affirmation of the director's
      good faith belief that the director acted in good faith and reasonably believed
      the actions were in the best interest of the corporation if the proceeding
      is a
      civil proceeding. If the proceeding is criminal, the director must furnish
      a
      written affirmation that the director had reasonable cause to believe he was
      acting lawfully or the director or officer had no reason to believe the action
      was unlawful. The director will repay the advance if it is ultimately determined
      that such director did not meet the standard of conduct required by the IBCL
      and
      that those making the decision to reimburse the director determine that the
      facts then known would not preclude indemnification under the IBCL.
The
      IBCL
      permits a corporation to grant indemnification rights in addition to those
      provided by statute, limited only by the fiduciary duties of the directors
      approving the indemnification and public policies of the State of
      Indiana.

                the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that
                which
                was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
                estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
                prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if,
                in the
                aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than
                a 20%
                change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
                "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration
                statement;
(iii)
To
                include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution
                not previously disclosed in this registration statement or any material
                change to such information in this registration statement;
provided
,
however
,
      that
      the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do
      not
      apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment
      by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished
      to
      the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
      the
      Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this

That,
                for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
                Act of
                1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
                new
                registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
                and the
                offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
                initial
                bona fide offering thereof.
(3)
To
                remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
                of the
                securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination
                of the
                offering.
(b)
The
                undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining
                any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
                registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of
                the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each
                filing of
                an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
                Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference
                in the
                registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
                relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
                securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
                offering thereof.
(c)
Insofar
                as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
                of
                1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
                of
                the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
                the
                registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
                and
                Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy
                as
                expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
                that a
                claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
                payment
                by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
                or
                controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of
                any
                action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer
                or
                controlling person in connection with the securities being registered,
                the
                registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
                has been
                settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
                jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against
                public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the
                final
                adjudication of such issue.
