Pursuant to the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law and the Companys By-laws, as amended, directors and officers of the Company are entitled to mandatory indemnification from the Company against certain liabilities and expenses (i) to the extent such officers or directors are successful in the defense of a proceeding and (ii) in proceedings in which the director or officer is not successful in the defense thereof, unless it is determined that the director or officer breached or failed to perform his or her duties to the Company and such breach or failure constituted: (a) a willful failure to deal fairly with the Company or its shareowners in connection with a matter in which the director or officer had a material conflict of interest; (b) a violation of the criminal law, unless the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful; (c) a transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal profit; or (d) willful misconduct. The Wisconsin Business Corporation Law specifically states that it is the policy of Wisconsin to require or permit indemnification in connection with a proceeding involving securities regulation, as described therein, to the extent required or permitted as described above. Additionally, under the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law, directors of the Company are not subject to personal liability to the Company, its shareowners or any person asserting rights on behalf thereof for certain breaches or failures to perform any duty resulting solely from their status as directors except in circumstances paralleling those in subparagraphs (a) through (d) outlined above.
The indemnification provided by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law and the Companys By-laws is not exclusive of any other rights to which a director or officer may be entitled. The general effect of the foregoing provisions may be to reduce the circumstances which an officer or director may be required to bear the economic burden of the foregoing liabilities and expenses.
The Company maintains a liability insurance policy for its directors and officers as permitted by Wisconsin law which may extend to, among other things, liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Not applicable.
The exhibits filed herewith or incorporated herein by reference are set forth in the attached Exhibit Index.

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that it has submitted or will submit the Plan, and any amendment thereto, to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in a timely manner and has made or will make all changes required by the IRS in order to continue the qualification of the Plan under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; |
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; |
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) 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 the Registration Statement.
(2) 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 herein, 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 Registrants annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
-4-
(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 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.
-5-
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Madison, State of Wisconsin, on this 26th day of July, 2004.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for Alliant Energy Corporation, a Wisconsin corporation (the Company), in conjunction with the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the Registration Statement) to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), relating to 1,600,000 shares of the Companys Common Stock, $.01 par value (the Common Stock), the related Common Share Purchase Rights (the Rights), and interests in the Alliant Energy Corporation 401(k) Savings Plan, as amended to date (the Plan), which may be issued or acquired pursuant to the Plan. The terms of the Rights are as set forth in that certain Rights Agreement, dated as of January 20, 1999, by and between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A. (the Rights Agreement).
As such counsel, we have examined: (i) the Plan; (ii) the Registration Statement; (iii) the Rights Agreement; (iv) the Companys Restated Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws, as amended to date; (v) resolutions of the Companys Board of Directors relating to the Plan and the issuance of securities thereunder; and (vi) such other corporate proceedings, documents and records as we have deemed necessary to enable us to render this opinion.
Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:
1. The Company is a corporation validly existing under the laws of the State of Wisconsin.
2. It is presently contemplated that the shares of Common Stock to be acquired by the Plan will either be purchased in the open market or purchased directly from the Company. To the extent that the shares of Common Stock to be acquired by the Plan shall constitute shares newly issued by and purchased from the Company, such shares of Common Stock, when issued by the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Plan, and as contemplated by the Registration Statement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and no personal liability will attach to the ownership thereof, except with respect to wage claims of, or other debts owing to, employees of the Company for services performed, but not exceeding six months service in any one case, as provided in Section 180.0622(2)(b) of the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law.
3. The Rights, when issued pursuant to the terms of the Rights Agreement, will be validly issued.
