Power Purchase Agreements (Entergy Louisiana)

Entergy Louisiana has an agreement extending through the year 2031 to purchase energy generated by a hydroelectric facility known as the Vidalia project. Entergy Louisiana made payments under the contract of approximately

$86.0 million in 2001, $58.6 million in 2000, and $70.3 million in 1999. If the maximum percentage (94%) of the energy is made available to Entergy Louisiana, current production projections would require estimated payments of approximately

$92.3 million in 2002, and a total of $3.3 billion for the years 2003 through 2031. Entergy Louisiana currently recovers the costs of the purchased energy through its fuel adjustment clause. System Fuels (Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy) The domestic utility companies that are owners of System Fuels have made loans to System Fuels to finance its fuel procurement, delivery, and storage activities.

The following loans outstanding to System Fuels as of December 31, 2001 mature in 2008: Owner Ownership Percentage Loan Outstandin2 at December 31, 2001 Entergy Arkansas 35% $11.0 million Entergy Louisiana 33% $14.2 million Entergy Mississippi 19% $5.5 million Entergy New Orleans 13% $3.3 million Nuclear Insurance (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy) The Price-Anderson Act, which is scheduled for renewal in August 2002, limits public liability of a nuclear plant owner for a single nuclear incident to approximately

$9.5 billion. Protection for this liability is provided through a combination of private insurance underwritten by American Nuclear Insurers (ANI) (currently

$200 million for each reactor) and an industry assessment program. Effective January 1, 2002, liability arising out of terrorist acts will be covered by ANI subject to one industry aggregate limit of $200 million, with a conditional option for one shared industry aggregate limit reinstatement of $200 million. Under the assessment program, the maximum payment requirement for each nuclear incident would be $88.1 million per reactor, payable at a rate of $10 million per licensed reactor per incident per year. Entergy has nine licensed reactors.

As a co-licensee of Grand Gulf 1 with System Energy, SMEPA would share in 10% of this obligation.

In addition, each owner/licensee of Entergy's nine nuclear units participates in a private insurance program that provides coverage for worker tort claims filed for bodily injury caused by radiation exposure.

The program provides for a maximum assessment of approximately

$27.9 million for the nine nuclear units in the event that losses exceed accumulated reserve funds. Entergy's nuclear owner/licensee subsidiaries are also members of certain insurance programs that provide coverage for property damage, including decontamination and premature decommissioning expense, to members' nuclear generating plants. These programs are underwritten by Nuclear Electric Insurance, Limited (NEIL). As of December 31, 2001, Entergy was insured against such losses up to $2.3 billion for each of its nuclear units, except for Pilgrim, which is insured for $1.115 billion in property damages. In addition, Entergy's nuclear owner/licensee subsidiaries are members of the NEIL insurance program that covers certain replacement power and business interruption costs incurred due to prolonged nuclear unit outages. Under the property damage and replacement power/business interruption insurance programs, these Entergy subsidiaries could be subject to assessments if losses exceed the accumulated funds available to the insurers.

As of December 31, 2001, the maximum amounts of such possible assessments were: Entergy Arkansas -$24.9 million; Entergy Gulf States -$18.8 million; Entergy-200-Louisiana

-$21.1 million; Entergy Mississippi

-$1.4 million; Entergy New Orleans -$0.7 million; System Energy $16.1 million, and for Entergy's domestic non-utility nuclear business -$54.8 million.

Effective November 15, 2001, in the event that one or more acts of terrorism cause accidental property damage under one or more of all nuclear insurance policies issued by NEIL (including, but not limited to those described above) within 12 months from the date the first accidental property damage occurs, the maximum recovery under all such nuclear insurance policies shall be an aggregate of $3.24 billion plus the additional amounts recovered for such losses from reinsurance, indemnity, and any other source applicable to such losses. Entergy maintains property insurance for each of its nuclear units in excess of the NRC's minimum requirement for nuclear power plant licensees of $1.06 billion per site. NRC regulations provide that the proceeds of this insurance must be used, first, to render the reactor safe and stable, and second, to complete decontamination operations.

Only after proceeds are dedicated for such use and regulatory approval is secured would any remaining proceeds be made available for the benefit of plant owners or their creditors.

Spent Nuclear Fuel and Decommissioning Costs (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, and System Energy) Spent Nuclear Fuel Entergy's nuclear owner/licensee subsidiaries provide for the estimated future disposal costs of spent nuclear fuel in accordance with the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982. The affected Entergy companies entered into contracts with the DOE, whereby the DOE will furnish disposal service at a cost of one mill per net KWH generated and sold after April 7, 1983, plus a one-time fee for generation prior to that date. Entergy Arkansas is the only Entergy company that generated electric power with nuclear fuel prior to that date and has a recorded liability as of December 31, 2001 of $150 million for the one-time fee. The fees payable to the DOE may be adjusted in the future to assure full recovery.

Entergy considers all costs incurred for the disposal of spent nuclear fuel, except accrued interest, to be proper components of nuclear fuel expense. Provisions to recover such costs have been or will be made in applications to regulatory authorities.

Entergy's domestic non-utility nuclear business has accepted assignment of the Pilgrim, FitzPatrick, Indian Point 3, and Indian Point 2 spent fuel disposal contracts with the DOE previously held by Boston Edison, NYPA, and Consolidated Edison. Boston Edison, NYPA, and Consolidated Edison have paid or retained liability for the fees for all generation prior to the purchase dates of those plants. Delays have occurred in the DOE's program for the acceptance and disposal of spent nuclear fuel at a permanent repository.

After twenty years of study, the DOE, in February 2002, formally recommended, and President Bush approved, Yucca Mountain, Nevada as the permanent spent fuel repository.

The State of Nevada may veto the site subject to override by simple majority of both houses of Congress.

If Yucca Mountain is sustained as the repository site, DOE will proceed with the licensing and eventual construction of the repository and may begin receipt of spent fuel as early as approximately 2010. Otherwise, DOE may not accept spent fuel for a significantly longer period of time. Considerable uncertainty exists regarding the time frame under which the DOE will begin to accept spent fuel from Entergy facilities for storage or disposal.

As a result, future expenditures will be required to increase spent fuel storage capacity at Entergy's nuclear plant sites. Pending DOE acceptance and disposal of spent nuclear fuel, the !owners of nuclear plants are responsible for their own spent fuel storage. Current on-site spent fuel storage capacity it Grand Gulf 1 and River Bend is estimated to be sufficient until approximately 2005 and 2004, respectively, at which time dry cask storage facilities will be placed into service. The spent fuel pool at Waterford 3 was recently expanded through the replacement of the existing storage racks with higher density storage racks. This expansion should provide sufficient storage for Waterford 3 until after 2010. An ANO storage facility using dry casks began operati~n in 1996 and has been expanded since and will be further expanded as needed. The spent fuel storage facility at Pilgrim is licensed to provide enough storage -201 -I DI II capacity until approximately 2012. FitzPatrick has sufficient spent fuel storage capacity through 2002, and additional dry cask storage capacity is being constructed that will provide sufficient storage capacity through 2004 and will be expanded as needed. Indian Point 2 and Indian Point 3 currently have sufficient spent fuel storage capacity until approximately 2004 and 2010, respectively.

Nuclear Decommissioning Costs Total approved decommissioning costs for rate recovery purposes as of December 31, 2001, for Entergy Arkansas', Entergy Gulf States', Entergy Louisiana's, and System Energy's nuclear power plants, excluding SMEPA's share of Grand Gulf 1, are as follows: Total Approved Estimated Deconmrissionini Costs (In Millions)

ANO 1 and ANO 2 (based on a 1998 cost study reflecting 1997 dollars) $813.1 River Bend -Louisiana (based on a 1996 cost study reflecting 1996 dollars) 419.0 River Bend -Texas (based on a 1996 cost study reflecting 1996 dollars) 385.2 Waterford 3 (based on a 1994 updated study in 1993 dollars) 320.1 Grand Gulf 1 (based on a 1994 cost study using 1993 dollars) 341.1 $2,278.5 Entergy records decommissioning liabilities for these plants as the estimated decommissioning costs are collected from customers or as earnings on the trust funds are realized.

The decommissioning liabilities recorded are discussed below. Entergy periodically reviews and updates estimated decommissioning costs. Although Entergy is presently under-recovering for Grand Gulf 1, Waterford 3, and River Bend based on more recent estimates, applications have been and will continue to be made to the appropriate regulatory authorities to reflect projected decommissioning costs in rates. Decommissioning costs recovered in rates are deposited in trust funds and reported at market value based upon ýmarket quotes or as determined by widely used pricing services.

These trust fund assets largely offset the accumulated decommissioning liability that is recorded as accumulated depreciation for Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, and Entergy Louisiana, and are recorded as deferred credits for System Energy and Entergy's domestic non-utility nuclear business.

The liability associated with the trust funds received fr6m Cajun with the transfer of Cajun's 30% share of River Bend is also recorded as a deferred credit by Entergy Gulf States. The actual decommissioning costs may vary from the estimates because of regulatory requirements, changes in technology, and increased costs of labor, materials, and equipment.

In June 2001, Entergy Arkansas received notification from the NRC of approval for a renewed operating license authorizing operations at ANO 1 through May 2034. In November 2001, the APSC ordered Entergy Arkansas to reflect 20-year license extensions in its determination of the ANO 1 and ANO 2 decommissioning revenue requirements for rates to be effective January 1, 2002. Entergy Arkansas will not recover decommissioning costs in 2002 for ANO 1 and 2 based on the extension of the ANO 1 license and the assumption that the ANO 2 license will be extended and that the existing decommissioning trust funds, together with their expected future earnings, will meet the estimated decommissioning costs. Entergy Louisiana prepared a decommissioning cost update for Waterford 3 in 1999 and produced a revised decommissioning cost update of $481.5 million. This cost update was filed with the LPSC in the third quarter of 2000.-202 -

In the Texas retail jurisdiction in a case filed with the PUCT in March 2000, Entergy Gulf States included River Bend decommissioning costs of $481.5 million based on a 1999 cost update amount of $525.8 million. PUCT substantive rules for rate requests for decommissioning limit the allowance for contingencies to ten percent, although the actual estimate employs greater contingency amounts. In LPSC rate reviews filed in May 1999 and 2000, Entergy Gulf States included decommissioning costs based on a 1998 update of $562.7 million and a 1999 update of $525.8 million, respectively.

The decommissioning liability for the 30 percent share of River Bend formerly owned by Cajun was funded by a transfer of $132 million to the River Bend Decommissioning Trust at the completion of Cajun's bankruptcy proceedings.

System Energy included updated decommissioning costs (based on the updated 1994 study) in its 1995 rate increase filing with FERC. Rates requested in this proceeding were placed into effect in December 1995, subject to refund. In July 2000, FERC issued an order approving a lower decommissioning cost than what was requested by System Energy. System Energy filed a motion for rehearing, which was granted, and FERC affirmed its previous decision.

System Energy adjusted its collection to the FERC-approved level of $341 million in the third quarter of 2001. A 1999 decommissioning cost update of $540.8 million for Grand Gulf has not yet been filed with FERC. As part of the Pilgrim purchase, Boston Edison funded a $471.3 million decommissioning trust fund, which was transferred to Entergy. After a favorable tax determination regarding the trust fund, Entergy returned $43 million of the trust fund to Boston Edison. Entergy believes that Pilgrim's decommissioning fund will be adequate to cover future decommissioning costs for the Pilgrim plant without any additional deposits to the trust. As part of the Indian Point 1 and 2 purchase, Consolidated Edison transferred a $430 million decommissioning trust fund, along with the liability to decommission Indian Point 1 and Indian Point 2, to Entergy.

Entergy also funded an additional

$25 million resulting in a total fund of $455 million. Entergy believes that Indian Point 1 and 2's decommissioning trust fund will be adequate to cover future decommissioning costs for these plants without any additional deposits to the trust. For the Indian Point 3 and FitzPatrick plants purchased in 2000, NYPA retained the decommissioning trusts and the decommissioning liability.

NYPA and Entergy executed decommissioning agreements, which specify their decommissioning obligations.

NYPA has the right to require Entergy to assume the decommissioning liability provided that it assigns the corresponding decommissioning trust, up to a specified level, to Entergy. If the decommissioning liability is retained by NYPA, Entergy will perform the decommissioning of the plants at a price equal to the lesser of a pre-specified level or the amount in the decommissioning trusts. Entergy believes that the amounts available to it under either scenario are sufficient to cover the future decommissioning costs without any additional contributions to the trusts. -203-I El The cumulative liabilities and decommissioning expenses recorded in 2001 by Entergy were as follows: ANO 1 and ANO 2 River Bend Waterford 3 Grand Gulf 1 Pilgrim Indian Point 1 & 2 Cumulative Liabilities as of December 31, 2000 $283.3 215.5 97.9 153.0 454.0 430.0 (c) $1,633.7 2001 Trust Earnings 2001 Decommissioning Expenses (In NMillions)

(b) Trust earnings on the decommissioning trust funds for Pilgrim and Indian recorded as income and do not increase the decommissioning liability. (c) Added in third quarter of 2001, when the units were acquired.Point 1 & 2 are In 2000 and 1999, ANO's decommissioning expense was $3.8 million and $10.7 million, respectively; River Bend's decommissioning expense was $6.2 million and $7.6 million, respectively; Waterford 3's decommissioning expense was $10.4 and $8.8 million, respectively; Grand Gulf l's decommissioning expense was $18.9 million in both years; and Pilgrim's decommissioning expense was $19.2 and $6.8 million, respectively.

The EPAct contains a provision that assesses domestic nuclear utilities with fees for the decontamination and decommissioning of the DOE's past uranium enrichment operations.

Annual assessments (in 2001 dollars), which will be adjusted annually for inflation, are for 15 years and are approximately

$4.1 million for Entergy Arkansas, $1.0 million for Entergy Gulf States, $1.6 million for Entergy Louisiana, and $1.5 million for System Energy. At December 31, 2001, five years of assessments were remaining.

DOE fees are included in other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities and, as of December 31, 2001, recorded liabilities were $20.5 million for Entergy Arkansas, $3.6 million for Entergy Gulf States, $7.8 million for Entergy Louisiana, and $7.7 million for System Energy. Regulatory assets in the financial statements offset these liabilities.

FERC requires that utilities treat these assessments as costs of fuel as they are amortized and recover these costs through rates in the same manner as other fuel costs. Environmental Issues (Entergy Arkansas)

Entergy Arkansas has received notices from the EPA and the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality alleging that Entergy Arkansas, along with others, may be a PRP for clean-up costs associated with a site in Arkansas.

As of December 31, 2001, Entergy Arkansas does not expect the remaining clean-up costs to exceed its recorded liability of approximately

$5 million. (Entergy Gulf States) Entergy Gulf States has been designated as a PRP for the cleanup of certain hazardous waste disposal sites. Entergy Gulf States is currently negotiating with the EPA and state authorities regarding the cleanup of these sites.-204 -

As of December 31, 2001, Entergy Gulf States does not expect the remaining clean-up costs to exceed its recorded liability of $15.1 million for the remaining sites at which the EPA has designated Entergy Gulf States as a PRP. (Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans) During 1993, the LDEQ issued new rules for solid waste regulation, including regulation of wastewater impoundments.

Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans have determined that certain of their power plant wastewater impoundments were affected by these regulations and have chosen to upgrade or close them. As a result, a remaining recorded liability in the amount of $5.8 million for Entergy Louisiana and $0.5 million for Entergy New Orleans existed at December 31, 2001 for wastewater upgrades and closures.

Completion of this work is pending LDEQ approval.

Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans do not expect the remaining costs for work at these sites to exceed the recorded provisions.

City Franchise Ordinances (Entergy New Orleans) Entergy New Orleans provides electric and gas service in the City of New Orleans pursuant to franchise ordinances.

These ordinances contain a continuing option for the city to purchase Entergy New Orleans' electric and gas utility properties.

A resolution to study the advantages for ratepayers that might result from an acquisition of these properties was filed in a committee of the Council in January 2001. The committee has deferred consideration of and has taken no further action regarding that resolution.

The full Council must approve the resolution to commence such a study before it can become effective.

Waterford 3 Lease Obligations (Entergy Louisiana)

On September 28, 1989, Entergy Louisiana entered into three identical transactions for the sale and leaseback of undivided interests (aggregating approximately 9.3%) in Waterford

3. In July 1997, Entergy Louisiana caused the lessors to issue $307.6 million aggregate principal amount of Waterford 3 Secured Lease Obligation Bonds, 8.76% Series due 2017, to refinance the outstanding bonds originally issued to finance the purchase of the undivided interests by the lessors. The lease payments were reduced to reflect the lower interest costs. Upon the occurrence of certain events, Entergy Louisiana may be obligated to pay amounts sufficient to permit the termination of the lease transactions and may be required to assume the outstanding bonds issued to finance, in part, the lessors' acquisition of the undivided interests in Waterford

3. Off Balance Sheet Turbine Financing Arrangement (Entergy Corporation)

EWO obtained contracts in October 1999 to acquire 36 turbines from General Electric.

Entergy's rights and obligations under the contracts for 22 of the turbines were sold to a third party in May 2001. Entergy has certain rights to reacquire the turbines from the third party, whether pursuant to an interim lease commencing when a turbine is ready for shipment or pursuant to certain purchase fights. If Entergy does not take title to the turbines prior to certain specified dates, the third party has certain rights to sell the turbines and Entergy may be held liable for specific defined shortfalls, if any. Entergy's maximum projected exposure under this arrangement is approximately

$250 million. This exposure, however, does not take into account Entergy's ongoing efforts to develop sites for the turbines.

Employment Litigation (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, and Entergy New Orleans) Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, and Entergy New Orleans are defendants in numerous lawsuits filed by former employees asserting that they were wrongfully terminated and/or discriminated against on the basis of age, race, and/or sex. Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, and Entergy New Orleans are vigorously defending these suits and deny any liability to the plaintiffs.

Nevertheless, no assurance can be given as to the outcome of these cases.-205 Asbestos and Hazardous Material Litization (Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy New Orleans) Numerous lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts in Texas and Louisiana primarily by contractor employees in the 1950-1980 timeframe against Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, and Entergy New Orleans, as premises owners of power plants, for damages caused by alleged exposure to asbestos or other hazardous material.

Many other defendants are named in these lawsuits as well. Since 1992, the Entergy companies have resolved over 3 thousand claims for nominal amounts that in the aggregate total less than $13 million, including defense costs. Some of this loss has been offset by reimbursement from insurers.

Presently there are over 3 thousand claims pending and reserves have been established that should be adequate to cover any exposure.

Additionally, negotiations continue with insurers to recover more reimbursement, while new coverage is being secured to minimize anticipated future potential exposures.

Management believes that loss exposure has been and will continue to be handled successfully so that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not be material, in the aggregate, to its financial position or results of operation.

Grand Gulf 1-Related Agreements Capital Funds Agreement (Entergy Corporation and System Energy) Entergy Corporation has agreed to supply System Energy with sufficient capital to (i) maintain System Energy's equity capital at an amount equal to a minimum of 35% of its total capitalization (excluding short-term debt), and (ii) permit the continued commercial operation of Grand Gulf 1 and pay in full all indebtedness for borrowed money of System Energy when due. In addition, under supplements to the Capital Funds Agreement assigning System Energy's rights as security for specific debt of System Energy, Entergy Corporation has agreed to make cash capital contributions to enable System Energy to make payments on such debt when due. System Energy has entered into agreements with Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans whereby they are obligated to purchase their respective entitlements of capacity and energy from System Energy's 90% interest in Grand Gulf 1, and to make payments that, together with other available funds, are adequate to cover System Energy's operating expenses.

System Energy would have to secure funds from other sources, including Entergy Corporation's obligations under the Capital Funds Agreement, to cover any shortfalls from payments received from Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans under these agreements.

Unit Power Sales Agreement (Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy) System Energy has agreed to sell all of its 90% share of capacity and energy from Grand Gulf 1 to Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans in accordance with specified percentages (Entergy Arkansas-36%, Entergy Louisiana-14%, Entergy Mississippi-33%, and Entergy New Orleans 17%) as ordered by FERC. Charges under this agreement are paid in consideration for the purchasing companies' respective entitlement to receive capacity and energy and are payable irrespective of the quantity of energy delivered so long as the unit remains in commercial operation.

The agreement will remain in effect until terminated by the parties and the termination is approved by FERC, most likely upon Grand Gulf l's retirement from service. Monthly obligations for payments under the agreement are approximately

$20 million for Entergy Arkansas, $7 million for Entergy Louisiana, $20 million for Entergy Mississippi, and $9 million for Entergy New Orleans.

Availability Agreement (Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy) Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans are individually obligated to make payments or subordinated advances to System Energy in accordance with stated percentages

-206 -

(Entergy Arkansas-17.

1%, Entergy Louisiana-26.9%, Entergy Mississippi-3 1.3%, and Entergy New Orleans-24.7%)

in amounts that, when added to amounts received under the Unit Power Sales Agreement or otherwise, are adequate to cover all of System Energy's operating expenses as defined, including an amount sufficient to amortize the cost of Grand Gulf 2 over 27 years. (See Reallocation Agreement terms below.) System Energy has assigned its rights to payments and advances to certain creditors as security for certain obligations.

Since commercial operation of Grand Gulf 1, payments under the Unit Power Sales Agreement have exceeded the amounts payable under the Availability Agreement.

Accordingly, no payments under the Availability Agreement have ever been required.

If Entergy Arkansas or Entergy Mississippi fails to make its Unit Power Sales Agreement payments, and System Energy is unable to obtain funds from other sources, Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans could become subject to claims or demands by System Energy or its creditors for payments or advances under the Availability Agreement (or the assignments thereof) equal to the difference between their required Unit Power Sales Agreement payments and their required Availability Agreement payments.

Reallocation Agreement (Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy) System Energy, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans entered into the Reallocation Agreement relating to the sale of capacity and energy from Grand Gulf and the related costs, in which Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans agreed to assume all of Entergy Arkansas' responsibilities and obligations with respect to Grand Gulf under the Availability Agreement.

FERC's decision allocating a portion of Grand Gulf 1 capacity and energy to Entergy Arkansas supersedes the Reallocation Agreement as it relates to Grand Gulf 1. Responsibility for any Grand Gulf 2 amortization amounts has been individually allocated (Entergy Louisiana-26.23%, Entergy Mississippi-43.97%, and Entergy New Orleans-29.80%)

under the terms of the Reallocation Agreement.

However, the Reallocation Agreement does not affect Entergy Arkansas' obligation to System Energy's lenders under the assignments referred to in the preceding paragraph.

Entergy Arkansas would be liable for its share of such amounts if Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans were unable to meet their contractual obligations.

No payments of any amortization amounts will be required so long as amounts paid to System Energy under the Unit Power Sales Agreement, including other funds available to System Energy, exceed amounts required under the Availability Agreement, which is expected to be the case for the foreseeable future. Reimbursement Agreement (System Energy) In December 1988, System Energy entered into two separate, but identical, arrangements for the sale and leaseback of an approximate aggregate 11.5% ownership interest in Grand Gulf 1. In connection with the equity funding of the sale and leaseback arrangements, letters of credit are required to be maintained to secure certain amounts payable for the benefit of the equity investors by System Energy under the leases. The current letters of credit are effective until March 20, 2003. Under the provisions of a bank letter of credit reimbursement agreement, System Energy has agreed to a number of covenants relating to the maintenance of certain capitalization and fixed charge coverage ratios. System Energy agreed, during the term of the reimbursement agreement, to maintain its equity at not less than 33% of its adjusted capitalization (defined in the reimbursement agreement to include certain amounts not included in capitalization for financial statement purposes).

In addition, System Efiergy must maintain, with respect to each fiscal quarter during the term of the reimbursement agreement, a ratio of adjusted net income to interest expense (calculated, in each case, as specified in the reimbursement agreement) of at least 1.60 times earnings.

As of December 31, 2001, System Energy's equity approximated 46.3 5% of its adjusted capitalization, and its fixed charge coverage ratio for 2001 was 2.17. -207-I Litigation (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans) In addition to those discussed above, Entergy and the domestic utility companies are involved in a number of legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of their business.

While management is unable to predict the outcome of such litigation, it is not expected that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of these entities.

NOTE 10. LEASES General As of December 31, 2001, Entergy had capital leases and non-cancelable operating leases for equipment, buildings, vehicles, and fuel storage facilities (excluding nuclear fuel leases and the sale and leaseback transactions) with minimum lease payments as follows: Capital Leases Entergy Entergy Year 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 Years thereafter Minimum lease payments Less: Amount representing interest Present value of net minimum lease payments Entergy Arkansas Gulf States (In Thousands)

Rental expense for Entergy's leases (excluding nuclear fuel leases and the Grand Gulf 1 and Waterford 3 sale and leaseback transactions) amounted to $65.1 million, $53.3 million, and $65.2 million, in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

These amounts include $21.1 million, $18.9 million, and $23.9 million for Entergy Arkansas;

$22.0 million, $18.9 million, and $19.2 million for Entergy Gulf States; and $11.7 million, $7.9 million, and $13.1 million for Entergy Louisiana.

In addition to the above rental expense, railcar operating lease payments, which are recorded in fuel expense, were $12.2 million in 2001, $12.5 million in 2000, and $12.6 million in 1999 for Entergy Arkansas and $2.8 million in 2001 and 2000 and $4.1 million in 1999 for Entergy Gulf States. The railcar lease payments are recorded as fuel expense in accordance with regulatory treatment.

Nuclear Fuel Leases (Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, and System Energy) As of December 31, 2001, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, and System Energy each had arrangements to lease nuclear fuel in an aggregate amount up to $135 million, $90 million, $90 million, and $95 million, respectively.

As of December 31, 2001, the unrecovered cost base of Entergy Arkansas', Entergy Gulf States', Entergy Louisiana's, and System Energy's nuclear fuel leases amounted to approximately

$65.6 million, $67.7 million, $70.3 million, and $61.9 million, respectively.

The lessors finance the acquisition and ownership of nuclear fuel through loans made under revolving credit agreements, the issuance of commercial paper, and the issuance of intermediate-term notes. The credit agreements for Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, and System Energy have termination dates of November 2003, November 2003, December 2004, and November 2003, respectively.

Such termination dates may be extended from time to time with the consent of the lenders. The intermediate-term notes issued pursuant to these fuel lease arrangements have varying maturities through March 15, 2005. It is expected that additional financing under the leases will be arranged as needed to acquire additional fuel, to pay interest, and to pay maturing debt. However, if such additional financing cannot be arranged, the lessee in each case must repurchase sufficient nuclear fuel to allow the lessor to meet its obligations.

Lease payments are based on nuclear fuel use. The table below represents the total nuclear fuel lease payments (principal and interest) as well as the separate interest component charged to operations by the domestic utility companies and System Energy in 2001, 2000, and 1999: 2001 2000 1999 Lease Lease Lease Payments Interest Payments Interest Payments Interest (In Millions)

In 1989, Entergy Louisiana sold and leased back 9.3% of its interest in Waterford 3 for the aggregate sum of $353.6 million. The lease has an approximate term of 28 years. The lessors financed the sale-leaseback through the issuance of Waterford 3 Secured Lease Obligation Bonds. The lease payments made by Entergy Louisiana are sufficient to service the debt. -209 I In 1994, Entergy Louisiana did not exercise its option to repurchase the 9.3% interest in Waterford

3. As a result, Entergy Louisiana issued $208.2 million of non-interest bearing first mortgage bonds as collateral for the equity portion of certain amounts payable under the lease. In 1997, the lessors refinanced the outstanding bonds used to finance the purchase of Waterford 3 at lower interest rates, which reduced the annual lease payments.

Upon the occurrence of certain events, Entergy Louisiana may be obligated to assume the outstanding bonds used to finance the purchase of the unit and to pay an amount sufficient to withdraw from the lease transaction.

Such events include lease events of default, events of loss, deemed loss events, or certain adverse "Financial Events." "Financial Events" include, among other things, failure by Entergy Louisiana, following the expiration of any applicable grace or cure period, to maintain (i) total equity capital (including preferred stock) at least equal to 30% of adjusted capitalization, or (ii) a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.50 computed on a rolling 12 month basis. As of December 31, 2001, Entergy Louisiana's total equity capital (including preferred stock) was 48.37% of adjusted capitalization and its fixed charge coverage ratio for 2001 was 2.75. As of December 31, 2001, Entergy Louisiana had future minimum lease payments (reflecting an overall implicit rate of 7.45%) in connection with the Waterford 3 sale and leaseback transactions, which are recorded as long-term debt, as follows (in thousands):

2002 $39,246 2003 59,709 2004 31,739 2005 14,554 2006 18,261 Years thereafter 407,874 Total 571,383 Less: Amount representing interest 257,465 Present value of net minimum lease payments $313,918 Grand Gulf 1 Lease Obligations (System Energy) In December 1988, System Energy sold 11.5% of its undivided ownership interest in Grand Gulf 1 for the aggregate sum of $500 million. Subsequently, System Energy leased back its interest in the unit for a term of 26 1/22 years. System Energy has the option of terminating the lease and repurchasing the 11.5% interest in the unit at certain intervals during the lease. Furthermore, at the end of the lease term, System Energy has the option of renewing the lease or repurchasing the 11.5% interest in Grand Gulf 1. System Energy is required to report the sale-leaseback as a financing transaction in its financial statements.

For financial reporting purposes, System Energy expenses the interest portion of the lease obligation and the plant depreciation.

However, operating revenues include the recovery of the lease payments because the transactions are accounted for as a sale and leaseback for ratemaking purposes.

Until 2004, the total of interest and depreciation expense exceeds the corresponding revenues realized.

Consistent with a recommendation contained in a FERC audit report, System Energy recorded as a net deferred asset the difference between the recovery of the lease payments and the amounts expensed for interest and depreciation and is recording this difference as a deferred asset or liability on an ongoing basis. The amount of this net deferred asset was $88.7 million and $100.8 million as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

-210-As of December 31, 2001, System Energy had future minimum lease payments (reflecting an implicit rate of 7.02%), which are recorded as long-term debt as follows (in thousands):

RETIREMENT AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy) Pension Plans Entergy has five postretirement benefit plans, "Entergy Corporation Retirement Plan for Non-Bargaining Employees," "Entergy Corporation Retirement Plan for Bargaining Employees," "Entergy Corporation Retirement Plan II for Non-Bargaining Employees," "Entergy Corporation Retirement Plan II for Bargaining Employees," and "Entergy Corporation Retirement Plan III" covering substantially all of its domestic employees.

Except for the Entergy Corporation Retirement Plan III, the pension plans are noncontributory and provide pension benefits that are based on employees' credited service and compensation during the final years before retirement The Entergy Corporation Retirement Plan III includes a mandatory employee contribution of 3% of earnings during the first 10 years of plan participation, and allows voluntary contributions from 1%/9 to 10% of earnings for a limited group of employees.

Entergy Corporation and its subsidiaries fund pension costl in accordance with contribution guidelines established by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The assets of the plans include common and preferred stocks, fixed-income securities, interest in a money market fund, and insurance contracts.

Total 2001, 2000, and 1999 pension cost of Entergy Corporation and its subsidiaries, including amounts capitalized, included the following components (in thousands):

Substantially all domestic employees may become eligible for these benefits if they reach retirement age while still working for Entergy.

Effective January 1, 1993, Entergy adopted SFAS 106, which required a change from a cash method to an accrual method of accounting for postretirement benefits other than pensions.

At January 1, 1993, the actuarially determined accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (APBO) earned by retirees and active employees was estimated to be approximately

$241.4 million for Entergy (other than Entergy Gulf States) and $128 million for Entergy Gulf States. Such obligations are being amortized over a 20-year period that began in 1993. Entergy Arkansas, the portion of Entergy Gulf States regulated by the PUCT, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans have received regulatory approval to recover SFAS 106 costs through rates. Entergy Arkansas began recovery in 1998, pursuant to an APSC order. This order also allowed Entergy Arkansas to amortize a regulatory asset (representing the difference between SFAS 106 costs and cash expenditures for other postretirement benefits incurred for a five-year period that began January 1, 1993) over a 15-year period that began in January 1998. The LPSC ordered the portion of Entergy Gulf States regulated by the LPSC and Entergy Louisiana to continue the use of the pay-as-you-go method for ratemaking purposes for postretirement benefits other than-214-pensions.

However, the LPSC retains the flexibility to examine individual companies' accounting for postretirement benefits to determine if special exceptions to this order are warranted.

Pursuant to regulatory directives, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, the portion of Entergy Gulf States regulated by the PUCT, and System Energy fund postretirement benefit obligations collected in rates. System Energy is funding on behalf of Entergy Operations postretirement benefits associated with Grand Gulf 1. Entergy Louisiana and Entergy Gulf States continue to recover a portion of these benefits regulated by the LPSC and FERC on a pay-as-you-go basis. The assets of the various postretirement benefit plans other than pensions include common stocks, fixed-income securities, and a money market fund.

NOTE 12. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION (Entergy Corporation and Entergy New Orleans) Entergy's reportable segments as of December 31, 2001 are domestic utility, domestic non-utility nuclear, and energy commodity services.

Domestic utility provides retail electric service in portions of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, and provides natural gas utility service in portions of Louisiana.

Entergy's domestic non utility nuclear segment is focused on acquiring, owning, operating, and selling power from nuclear power plants and providing operations and management services to nuclear power plants owned by other utilities in the United States. Energy commodity services includes the: 1) Entergy-Koch joint venture, engaged in the marketing of wholesale electricity, gas, other generating fuels, electric capacity, and financial instruments, and also transports and stores natural gas; and 2) Entergy Wholesale Operations, focused on acquiring or developing power generation projects in North America and Europe. Entergy's operating segments are strategic business units managed separately due to their different operating and regulatory environments.

Entergy's chief operating decision maker is its Office of the Chief Executive, which consists of its highest-ranking officers.

-217 I During the third quarter of 2001, Entergy began integration of Entergy-Koch and Entergy Wholesale Operations into the energy commodity services segment. Prior to the third quarter of 2001, Entergy-Koch and Entergy Wholesale Operations were reported as separate segments.

Prior to the first quarter of 2001, Entergy reported its power marketing and trading segment separately.

On January 31, 2001, Entergy contributed substantially all of its power marketing and trading business to Entergy-Koch, which is now a part of the energy commodity services segment. Results from Entergy-Koch are reported as equity in earnings of unconsolidated equity affiliates in the financial statements.

See Note 13 to the financial statements for further discussion of the investment in Entergy-Koch, L.P. The segment financial information for 1999 and 2000 has been restated to conform with the 2001 presentation. "All other" includes the parent company, Entergy Corporation, and other business activity, which is principally gains or losses on the sales of businesses and the earnings on the proceeds of those sales.

$15-500,756 NOTE 13. EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS (Entergy Corporation)

In January 2001, subsidiaries of Entergy and Koch Industries, Inc. formed a limited partnership, Entergy Koch, L.P. Entergy-Koch engages in the gathering, transmission, and storage of natural gas in the Gulf Coast region of the United States through its Gulf South Pipeline subsidiary.

Entergy-Koch engages in physical and financial natural gas and power trading, and weather derivatives trading, in the United States, the United Kingdom, Western Europe, and Canada through its Entergy-Koch Trading subsidiaries.

In the formation of the partnership, Entergy contributed most of the assets and trading contracts of its power marketing and trading business and $414 million of cash. Koch Industries contributed its 8,800-mile Koch Gateway Pipeline (which has been renamed the Gulf South Pipeline), gas storage facilities including the 65.8 BCF Bistineau storage facility located near Shreveport, Louisiana, and Koch Energy Trading, which marketed and traded electricity, gas, weather derivatives, and other energy-related commodities and services.

Entergy and Koch have equal ownership interests in Entergy-Koch, L.P., which is governed by an eight member board of directors.

Each partner appointed four members of the board. Although the ownership interests are equal, the partnership agreement allocates Entergy-Koch's profits differently through 2003 based upon the source of the earnings.

Losses and distributions from operations are allocated to the partners equally. These significantly disproportionate profit allocations were favorable to Entergy in the aggregate in 2001. In 2004, a revaluation of Entergy-Koch's assets for capital account purposes will occur, and future profit allocations will change after the revaluation.

The profit allocations other than for weather trading and international trading are expected to become equal, unless special allocations are necessary to equalize the partners' capital accounts.

Earnings allocated under the terms of the partnership agreement constitute equity, not subject to reallocation, for the partners.

Entergy also owns investments in the following companies that it accounts for under the equity method of accounting:

Generandes Peru S.A. (in which Entergy owns 34% of the voting power), a privatized generation company that provides a significant portion of electricity for Lima, Peru; Compania Electrica San Isidro S.A. (in which Entergy owns 25% of the voting power), a power plant that provides power to the Chilean market with a portion under contract and the remainder on a merchant basis; RS Cogen LLC (in which Entergy holds a 50% member interest), a co-generation project that will provide power on an industrial and merchant basis in the Lake Charles, Louisiana area; EntergyShaw LLC (in which Entergy holds a 50% member interest), a company which provides management, engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning services for electric power plants; and Crete Energy Ventures, LLC (in which Entergy holds a 50%,member interest), a merchant power plant under construction in Crete, Illinois.

The total cost of such services in 2001 was approximately

$7.8 million. Entergy's operating transactions with its other equity method investees were not material in 2001, 2000, or 1999. EntergyShaw is currently constructing two projects for Entergy or its affiliates, the Crete and Harrison County projects.

Entergy has guaranteed the obligations of EntergyShaw to construct the Harrison County plant, and Entergy's maximum liability on the guarantee is $232.5 million.

NOTE 14. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS (Entergy Corporation)

Asset Acquisitions Indian Point 2 In September 2001, Entergy's domestic non-utility nuclear business acquired the 970 MW Indian Point 2 nuclear power plant located in Westchester County, New York from Consolidated Edison. Entergy paid approximately

$600 million in cash at the closing of the purchase and received the plant, nuclear fuel, materials and supplies, a purchase power agreement (PPA), and assumed certain liabilities.

On the second anniversary of the Indian Point 2 acquisition, Entergy's nuclear business will also begin to pay NYPA $10 million per year for up to 10 years in accordance with the Indian Point 3 purchase agreement.

Under the PPA, Consolidated Edison will purchase 100% of Indian Point 2's output for an average price of $39/MWh through 2004. Consolidated Edison transferred a $430 million decommissioning trust fund, along with the liability to decormmission Indian Point 2 and Indian Point 1, to Entergy. Entergy acquired Indian Point 1 in the transaction, a plant that has been shut down and in safe storage since the 1970s. -221 -I The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method. The results of operations of Indian Point 2 subsequent to the purchase date have been included in Entergy's consolidated results of operations.

The Indian Point 2 purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the purchase date. The allocation was based on preliminary information and amounts recorded may change, primarily as a result of additional expected information on the fair value of the plant facility.

Indian Point 3 and FitzPatrick In November 2000, Entergy's domestic non-utility nuclear business acquired from NYPA the 825 MW James A. FitzPatrick nuclear power plant near Oswego, New York, and the 980 MW Indian Point 3 nuclear power plant located in Westchester County, New York, in exchange for $50 million at closing and notes to NYPA with payments totaling $906 million. Entergy will also be required to make certain additional payments to NYPA in the event that the plants' license lives are extended.

The acquisition encompassed the nuclear plants, materials and supplies, and nuclear fuel, as well as the assumption of $124 million in liabilities.

The purchase agreement provides that NYPA will purchase a substantial majority of the output of the units at specified prices through 2004. The purchase agreement also provides that NYPA will retain the decommissioning obligations and related trust funds through the original license expiration date (approximately 2015). At that time, NYPA is required either to transfer the decommissioning liability to Entergy along with a specified amount in the decommissioning trust funds, or to retain Entergy to perform decommissioning services for a specified price that may be limited by the amount in the trust. In the purchase price allocation, Entergy recorded an asset representing its estimate of the net present value of the decommissioning contract obtained in the acquisition, based on an independent decommissioning cost study and other projections.

The asset increases by monthly accretion based on the discount rate used to determine the original net present value. Entergy records the monthly accretion as interest income. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method. The results of operations of Indian Point 3 and FitzPatrick subsequent to November 21, 2000 have been included in Entergy's consolidated statements of income. The purchase price has been allocated to the acquired assets, including identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the purchase date. Intangible assets are being amortized straight-line over the remaining lives of the plants. Pilgrim Nuclear Station In July 1999, Entergy's domestic non-utility nuclear business acquired the 670 MW Pilgrim Nuclear Station located in Plymouth, Massachusetts, from Boston Edison. The acquisition included the plant, real estate, materials and supplies, and nuclear fuel, for a total purchase price of $81 million. As part of the Pilgrim purchase, Boston Edison funded a $471 million decommissioning trust fund, which was transferred to an Entergy subsidiary.

Based on a favorable tax determination regarding the trust fund, Entergy returned $43 million of the trust fund to Boston Edison. Asset Dispositions In August 2001, Entergy's EWO business sold the Saltend plant to Calpine Corporation for a cash payment of approximately

$800 million. Entergy's gain on the sale was approximately

$88.1 million ($57.2 million after tax). The results of operations of the Saltend plant are included in Entergy's consolidated statements of income through the date of sale. The gain arising from the sale is included in operating revenues in that statement.

EWO actively manages its assets as an investment portfolio, and attempts to maximize flexibility to respond to different market environments.

Active management of the portfolio is expected to result in: the commercial operation of projects by EWO; the sale of projects at various stages in their planning, development, or operation; or the abandonment of projects.

In the sales transaction, Entergy or its subsidiaries made certain warranties to the purchasers relating primarily to the performance of certain remedial work on the facility and the assumption of responsibility for certain-222 -

contingent liabilities.

The warranties are backed by an Entergy Corporation guarantee, and Entergy believes that it has provided adequate reserves for the warranties as of December 31, 2001. In January 1999, Entergy disposed of its security monitoring subsidiary, Entergy Security, Inc. at a minimal gain. Several telecommunication businesses were sold in June 1999, also at small gains. The results of operations of these businesses are included in Entergy's consolidated statements of income through their respective dates of sale. Gains and losses arising from these sales are included in "Other Income, Gain (loss) on sale of assets -net" in that statement.

NOTE 15. RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUES (Entergy Corporation)

Market and Commodity Risks In the normal course of business, Entergy is exposed to a number of market and commodity risks. Market risk is the potential loss that Entergy may incur as a result of changes in the market or fair value of a particular instrument or commodity.

All financial and commodity-related instrutments, including derivatives, are subject to market risk. Entergy is subject to a number of commodity and market risks, including:

Type of risk Primary Affected Segments Power price risk All reportable segments Fuel price risk All reportable segments Interest rate risk -variable rate debt Energy Commodity Services Foreign currency exchange rate risk All reportable segments Equity price and interest rate risk -investments Domestic Utility, Domestic Non utility Nuclear Entergy manages these risks through both contractual arrangements and derivatives.

Contractual risk management tools include long-term power and fuel purchase agreements, capacity contracts, and tolling agreements.

Entergy also uses a variety of commodity and financial derivatives, including natural gas and electricity futures, forwards and options, foreign currency forwards, and interest rate swaps as a part of its overall risk management strategy.

Additionally, certain fuel supply contracts with volumetric optionality are required to be classified as derivatives under interpretations of SFAS 133. Except for the energy trading activities conducted by the energy commodity services segment, Entergy enters into derivatives only to manage natural risks inherent in its physical or financial assets or liabilities.

Entergy's exposure to market risk is determined by a number of factors, including the size, term, composition, and diversification of positions held, as well as market volatility and liquidity.

For instruments such as options, the time period during which the option may be exercised and the relationship between the current market price of the underlying instrument and the option's contractual strike or exercise price also affects the level of market risk. A significant factor influencing the overall level of market risk to which Entergy is exposed is its use of hedging techniques to mitigate such risk. Entergy manages market risk by actively monitoring compliance with stated risk management policies as well as monitoring the effectiveness of its hedging policies and strategies.

Entergy's risk management policies limit the amount of total net exposure and rolling net exposure during the stated periods. These policies, including related risk limits, are regularly assessed to ensure their appropriateness given Entergy's objectives.

-223 -I Hedging Derivatives Entergy classifies substantially all of the following types of derivative instruments as cash flow hedges: Instrument Business Segment Interest rate swaps Energy Commodity Services Natural gas and electricity futures and forwards Energy Commodity Services Foreign currency forwards Domestic Utility, Domestic Non-utility Nuclear The scheduled maturity of futures, forwards, and swaps that are classified as cash flow hedges will result in the reclassification into earnings during 2002 of approximately

$5.2 million of net losses that are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2001. During 2001, net losses on cash flow hedges of approximately

$22.2 million were reclassified into earnings.

The maximum length of time over which Entergy is currently hedging the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions (excluding interest rate swaps) at December 31, 2001 is approximately 25 months. The ineffective portion of the change in the value of Entergy's cash flow hedges during 2001 was insignificant.

Other Derivatives Entergy also holds derivative instruments such as natural gas and electricity options and forwards that are not accounted for as hedges. These instruments are entered into to optimize asset values or limit risks. Additionally, fuel supply contracts that are required to be classified as derivatives under SFAS 133 are not accounted for as hedges. These contracts are entered into in order to secure long term supplies of fuel for certain of Entergy's independent power generation plants. Fair Values Commodity Instruments Fair value estimates of energy commodity services' commodity instruments are made at discrete points in time based on relevant market information.

Market quotes are used in determining fair value whenever they are available.

When market quotes are not available (e.g. in the case of a long-dated commodity contract), other information is used, including transactional data and internally developed models. Fair value estimates based on these other methodologies are necessarily subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment.

Therefore, actual results may differ from these estimates.

At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the fair values of energy commodity services' energy-related commodity contracts accounted for on a mark-to-market basis were as follows: 2001 2000 Assets Liabilities Assets Liabilities (In Thousands)

$1,982,196 (1) As required by equity method accounting principles, only Entergy's net investment in these investees is reflected in its balance sheet, and these assets and liabilities are not reflected in Entergy's balance sheet. See Note 13 to the financial statements for more information on Entergy's equity method investees.

Following are the cumulative periods in which the net mark-to-market assets would be realized in cash if they are held to maturity and market prices are unchanged:

2002 2003 2004-2005 Consolidated subsidiaries 55% 98% 100% Equity method investees 10% 83% 100% Financial Instruments The estimated fair value of Entergy's financial instruments is determined using bid prices reported by dealer markets and by nationally recognized investment banking firms. The estimated fair value of derivative financial instruments is based on market quotes of the applicable interest rates. Considerable judgment is required in developing the estimates of fair value. Therefore, estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that Entergy could realize in a current market exchange.

In addition, gains or losses realized on financial instruments held by regulated businesses may be reflected in future rates and therefore do not accrue to the benefit or detriment of stockholders.

Entergy considers the carrying amounts of most of its financial instruments classified as current assets and liabilities to be a reasonable estimate of their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Additional information regarding financial instruments and their fair values is included in Notes 5, 6, and 7 to the financial statements.

NOTE 16. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES (Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy) Each domestic utility company purchases electricity from and sells electricity to the other domestic utility companies, System Energy, and Entergy Power (in the case of Entergy Arkansas) under rate schedules filed with FERC. In addition, the domestic utility companies and System Energy purchase fuel from System Fuels; receive management, technical, advisory, operating, and administrative services from Entergy Services; and receive management, technical, and operating services from Entergy Operations.

Pursuant to SEC rules under PUIHCA, these transactions are on an "at cost" basis, and are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements of Entergy.

-227-I Item 9. Chanizes In and Disagreements With Accountants On Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

On the recommendation of the Audit Committee of the Board, the Executive Committee of the Board (acting between board meetings) has appointed Deloitte & Touche as independent accountants for Entergy Corporation, effective August 13, 2001. The Boards of Directors of Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy also appointed Deloitte & Touche as independent accountants for each of those corporations effective August 13, 2001. Entergy's former independent accountants, PricewaterhouseCoopers, were dismissed effective August 13, 2001. The reports issued by PricewaterhouseCoopers on Entergy's financial statements for either of the two most recent fiscal years did not contain any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, or any qualification or modification as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During Entergy's two most recent fiscal years and through August 13, 2001, there were no disagreements with PricewaterhouseCoopers on a matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PricewaterhouseCoopers, would have caused PricewaterhouseCoopers to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports.

Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy initially reported the change in accountants on Form 8-K on August 13, 2001. The Form 8-K contained a letter from PricewaterhouseCoopers to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that it agreed with the statements concerning their firm made therein.

The units will vest incrementally over a three-year period that began in 2000, based on continued service with Entergy Corporation.

Accumulated dividends will be paid. In January 2001, Mr. Leonard was granted 200,000 restricted units. 50,000 of the restricted stock units will vest on each of December 31, 2001, December 31, 2002, December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004, based on continued service with Entergy Corporation.

Accumulated dividends will not be paid on Mr. Leonard's restricted units when vested. Mr. Yelverton was granted 10,000 units in 2000. Restrictions will be lifted on 3,000 units in 2001 and 2002, and the remaining 4,000 units in 2003. Accumulated dividends will not be paid. The value these individuals may realize is dependent upon both the number of units that vest and the future market price of Entergy Corporation common stock.-234-Option Grants in 2001 The following table summarizes option grants during 2001 to the:Named Executive Officers.

Final average compensation is based on the highest consecutive 60 months of covered compensation in the last 120 months of service. The normal form of benefit for a single employee is a lifetime annuity and for a married employee is a 50% joint and survivor annuity. Other actuarially equivalent options are available to each retiree. Retirement benefits are not subject to any deduction for Social Security or other offset amounts. The amount of the Named Executive Officers' annual compensation covered by the plan as of December 31, 2001, is represented by the salary column in the Summary Compensation Table above. The credited years of service under the Retirement Income Plan, as of December 31, 2001, for the following Named Executive Officers is as follows: Mr. Domino 31; Mr. Jackson 22; Mr. Leonard 3; Mr. McDonald 19; Mr. Packer 19; Ms. Shanks 18; and Mr. Yelverton

22. The credited years of service under the Retirement Income Plan, as of December 31, 2001 for the following Named Executive Officers, as a result of entering into supplemental retirement agreements, is as follows: Ms. Conley 19; Mr. Hintz 30; and Mr. Wilder 18. The maximum benefit under the Retirement Income Plan is limited by Sections 401 and 415 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; however, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy have elected to participate in the Pension Equalization Plan sponsored by Entergy Corporation.

Under this plan, certain executives, including the Named Executive Officers, would receive an additional amount equal to the benefit that would have been payable under the Retirement Income Plan, except for the Sections 401 and 415 limitations discussed above. In addition to the Retirement Income Plan discussed above, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy participate in the Supplemental Retirement Plan of Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries and the Post-Retirement Plan of Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries.

Participation is limited to one of these two plans and is at the invitation of Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy. The participant may receive from the appropriate Entergy company a monthly benefit payment not in excess of .025 (under the Supplemental Retirement Plan) or .0333 (under the Post-Retirement PlIn) times the participant's average basic -237 I annual salary (as defined in the plans) for a maximum of 120 months. Mr. Hintz, Mr. Packer and Mr. Yelverton have entered into a Supplemental Retirement Plan participation contract, and Mr. Jackson has entered into a Post Retirement Plan participation contract.

Current estimates indicate that the annual payments to each Named Executive Officer under the above plans would be less than the payments to that officer under the System Executive Retirement Plan discussed below. System Executive Retirement Plan Table (1) Annual Covered Years of Service Compensation

.10 15 20 25 30+ $ 200,000 $ 60,000 $ 90,000 $ 100,000 $ 110,000 $ 120,000 300,000 90,000 135,000 150,000 165,000 180,000 400,000 120,000 180,000 200,000 220,000 240,000 500,000 150,000 225,000 250,000 275,000 300,000 600,000 180,000 270,000 300,000 330,000 360,000 700,000 210,000 315,000 350,000 385,000 420,000 1,000,000 300,000 450,000 500,000 550,000 600,000 (1) Covered pay includes the average of the highest three years of annual base pay and incentive awards earned by the executive during the ten years immediately preceding his retirement.

Benefits shown are based on a target replacement ratio of 50% based on the years of service and covered compensation shown. The benefits for 10, 15, and 20 or more years of service at the 45% and 55% replacement levels would decrease (in the case of 45%) or increase (in the case of 55%) by the following percentages:

3.0%, 4.5%, and 5.0%, respectively.

In 1993, Entergy Corporation adopted the System Executive Retirement Plan (SERP). This plan was amended in 1998. Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy are participating employers in the SERP. The SERP is an unfunded defined benefit plan offered at retirement to certain senior executives, which would currently include all the Named Executive Officers.

Participating executives choose, at retirement, between the retirement benefits paid under provisions of the SERP or those payable under the Supplemental Retirement Plan or the Post-Retirement Plan discussed above. The plan was amended in 1998 to provide that covered pay is the average of the highest three years annual base pay and incentive awards earned by the executive during the ten years immediately preceding his retirement.

Benefits paid under the SERP are calculated by multiplying the covered pay times target pay replacement ratios (45%, 50%, or 55%, dependent on job rating at retirement) that are attained, according to plan design, at 20 years of credited service. The target ratios are increased by 1% for each year of service over 20 years, up to a maximum of 30 years of service. In accordance with the SERP formula, the target ratios are reduced for each year of service below 20 years. The credited years of service under this plan are identical to the years of service for Named Executive Officers (other than Ms. Conley, Mr. Jackson, Mr. Wilder and Mr. Yelverton) disclosed above in the section entitled "Pension Plan Tables-Retirement Income Plan Table". Ms. Conley, Mr. Jackson, Mr. Wilder, and Mr. Yelverton have 2 years, 28 years, 3 years, and 32 years, respectively, of credited service under this plan. The amended plan provides that a single employee receives a lifetime annuity and a married employee receives the reduced benefit with a 50% surviving spouse annuity. Other actuarially equivalent options are available to each retiree. SERP benefits are offset by any and all defined benefit plan payments from Entergy.

SERP benefits are not subject to Social Security offsets.

Eligibility for and receipt of benefits under any of the executive plans described above are contingent upon several factors. The participant must agree, without the specific consent of the Entergy company for which such participant was last employed, not to take employment after retirement with any entity that is in competition with, or similar in nature to, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy-238-New Orleans, and System Energy or any affiliate thereof. Eligibility for benefits is forfeitable for various reasons, including violation of an agreement with Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy, certain resignations of employment, or certain terminations of employment without Company permission.

In addition to the Retirement Income Plan discussed above, Entergy Gulf States provides, among other benefits to officers, an Executive Income Security Plan for key managerial personnel.

The plan provides participants with certain retirement, disability, termination, and survivors' benefits.

To the extent that such benefits are not funded by the employee benefit plans of Entergy Gulf States or by vested benefits payable by the participants' former employers, Entergy Gulf States is obligated to make supplemental payments to participants or their survivors.

The plan provides that upon the death or disability of a participant during his employment, he or his designated survivors will receive (i) during the first year following his death or disability an amount not to exceed his annual base salary, and (ii) thereafter for a number of years until the participant attains or would have attained age 65, but not less than nine years, an amount equal to one-half of the participant's annual base salary. The plan also provides supplemental retirement benefits for life for participants retiring after reaching age 65 equal to one-half of the participant's average final compensation rate, with one-half of such benefit upon the death of the participant being payable to a surviving spouse for life. Entergy Gulf States amended and restated the plan effective March 1, 1991, to provide such benefits for life upon termination of employment of a participating officer or key managerial employee without cause (as defined in the plan) or if the participant separates from employment for good reason (as defined in the plan), with 1/2 of such benefits to be payable to a surviving spouse for life. Further,'

the plan was amended to provide medical benefits for a participant and his family when the participant separates from service. These medical benefits generally continue until the participant is eligible to receive medical benefits from a subsequent employer; but in the case of a participant who is over 50 at the time of separation and was participating in the plan on March 1, 1991, medical benefits continue for life. By virtue of the 1991 amendment and restatement, benefits for a participant under such plan cannot be modified once he becomes eligible to participate in the plan. Mr. Domino is a participant in this plan. Compensation of Directors For information regarding compensation of the directors of Entergy Corporation, see the Proxy Statement under the heading "Director Compensation", which information is incorporated herein by reference.

Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and System Energy currently have no non-employee directors, and none of the current directors of these companies are compensated for their responsibilities as director.

Retired non-employee directors of Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans with a minimum of five years of service on the respective Boards of Directors are paid $200 a month for a term of years corresponding to the number of years of active service as directors.

Retired non-employee directors with over ten years of service receive a lifetime benefit of $200 a month. Years of service as an advisory director are included in calculating this benefit. System Energy has no retired non-employee directors.

Retired non-employee directors of Entergy Gulf States receive retirement benefits under a plan in which all directors who served continuously for a period of years will receive a percentage of their retainer fee in effect at the time of their retirement for life. The retirement benefit is 30 percent of the retainer fee for service of not less than five nor more than nine years, 40 percent for service of not less than ten nor more than fourteen years, and 50 percent for fifteen or more years of service. For those directors who retired prior to the retirement age, their benefits are reduced. The plan also provides disability retirement and optional hospital and medical coverage if the director has served at least five years prior to the disability.

The retired director pays one-third of the premium for such optional hospital and medical coverage and Entergy Gulf States pays the remaining two-thirds.

Years of service as an advisory director are included in calculating this benefit.
