EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Form 10-K/A is being filed to amend and restate Item 9A of Part II of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 (“2004 10-K”), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2005 by Michigan Consolidated Gas Company (the “Company”). This amendment responds to certain comments of the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with its review of the Company’s 2004 10-K. This amendment rephrases the language regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2004. In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), new certifications by the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are being filed as exhibits to this Form 10-K/A under Item 15 of Part IV hereof.

For purposes of this Form 10-K/A, and in accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Exchange Act, Item 9A of the Company’s 2004 10-K has been amended and restated in its entirety. No attempt has been made in this Form 10-K/A to modify or update other disclosures as presented in the original 2004 10-K.

PART II

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Management of the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2004, which is the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Due to the inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any disclosure controls and procedures, management cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of its disclosure controls and procedures will be met.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
