Introductory Note

On November 30, 2017, Entergy New Orleans, Inc. (ENOI) undertook a restructuring which resulted in the transfer of substantially all of the assets and operations of ENOI to a new entity, which is now owned by an existing Entergy subsidiary holding company (Internal Restructuring).

In order to effect the Internal Restructuring, under the Texas Business Organizations Code (TXBOC), ENOI allocated substantially all of its assets to a new subsidiary, Entergy New Orleans Power, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (ENOL), and ENOL assumed substantially all of the liabilities of ENOI, in a transaction regarded as a merger under the TXBOC. ENOI remained in existence. On December 1, 2017, ENOI changed its name from “Entergy New Orleans, Inc.” to “Entergy Utility Group, Inc.” and ENOL changed its name from “Entergy New Orleans Power, LLC” to “Entergy New Orleans, LLC”.

With the completion of the Internal Restructuring, ENOL holds substantially all of the assets, and has assumed substantially all of the liabilities, of ENOI.

This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed for the purpose of establishing ENOL as the successor issuer to ENOI pursuant to Rules 12g-3(a) and 15d-5(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), and to disclose events required to be disclosed on Form 8-K with respect to ENOI and ENOL relating to the Internal Restructuring. Pursuant to Rule 12g-3(a) under the Exchange Act, the series of outstanding debt securities that ENOI had registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) are deemed registered by ENOL under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and ENOL is subject to the reporting and other applicable requirements of the Exchange Act.

Information concerning each such director and officer is included in ENOI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On December 1, 2017, ENOI amended its Certificate of Formation and Bylaws to change its name to “Entergy Utility Group, Inc.” Such amendments are included in this filing as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively.

ENOL is governed by the Certificate of Formation and Company Agreement of Entergy New Orleans Power, LLC, each dated as of July 18, 2017, as amended December 1, 2017 to change its name from “Entergy New Orleans Power, LLC” to “Entergy New Orleans, LLC”. Composite forms of each of the Certificate of Formation and the Company Agreement of ENOL reflecting the December 1, 2017 amendments thereto are included in this filing as Exhibits 3.3 and 3.4, respectively.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

In November 2017, in contemplation of the Internal Restructuring, ENOI redeemed its outstanding preferred stock and converted from a Louisiana corporation to a Texas corporation.

On November 30, 2017, the Internal Restructuring was completed.

In order to effectuate the Internal Restructuring, under the TXBOC, ENOI allocated substantially all of its assets to a new subsidiary, ENOL, a Texas limited liability company, and ENOL assumed substantially all of the liabilities of ENOI, in a transaction regarded as a merger under the TXBOC. ENOI remained in existence after completion of the merger and contributed the membership interests in ENOL to an affiliate,

Entergy Utility Holding Company, LLC, all of the common membership interests of which are owned directly or indirectly by Entergy Corporation. On December 1, 2017, ENOI changed its name from “Entergy New Orleans, Inc.” to “Entergy Utility Group, Inc.” and ENOL changed its name from “Entergy New Orleans Power, LLC” to “Entergy New Orleans, LLC”.

With the completion of the Internal Restructuring, ENOL holds substantially all of the assets, and has assumed substantially all of the liabilities, of ENOI, including the obligations of ENOI with respect to the Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of May 1, 1987, as amended and supplemented, and the outstanding First Mortgage Bonds issued thereunder.

The Plan of Merger of Entergy New Orleans, Inc. and Entergy New Orleans Power, LLC is included in this filing as Exhibit 2.1.

All of the exhibits filed by ENOI in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the interim periods during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, which reports were filed on a combined basis by ENOI along with the annual and quarterly reports of its parent, Entergy Corporation, and the annual and quarterly reports of various affiliated entities and which include the indentures and material contracts filed as exhibit numbers 4 (Instruments Defining the Rights of Security Holders, Including Indentures) and 10 (Material Contracts), which relate to obligations that ENOL has assumed in the Internal Restructuring, are considered to be exhibits applicable to ENOL as successor to ENOI, except to the extent such exhibits are superseded.

On December 1, 2017, ENOI notified the NYSE of the completion of the Internal Restructuring. As a result of the succession of ENOL to the obligations, including all securities, of ENOI, the NYSE has informed ENOI that it will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) a notification on Form 25 to remove the two series of ENOI debt securities (First Mortgage Bonds, 5.0% Series due December 2052 and First Mortgage Bonds, 5.50% Series due April 2066) that had been listed on the NYSE from listing by ENOI on the NYSE and from registration under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. As a result of Exchange Act Rule 12g-3(a), such debt securities are now considered to be listed on the NYSE by ENOL as successor to ENOI.

In addition, ENOI intends to file with the SEC a certification and notice of termination on Form 15 requesting that its reporting obligations under Section 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act with respect to its outstanding debt securities be suspended and terminated. ENOL is subject to the reporting and other applicable requirements of the Exchange Act as successor to ENOI.

The principal office of ENTERGY UTILITY GROUP, INC. formerly known as ENTERGY NEW ORLEANS, INC. (the “Corporation”) shall be located in New Orleans, Louisiana.

1.2 Other Offices.

The Corporation may also have offices at such other places both within and without the State of Texas as the board of directors may from time to time determine or the business of the Corporation may require.

2. MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS.

2.1 Annual Meeting.

The annual meeting of shareholders for the election of directors and such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting shall be held at such place within or without the State of Texas and at such date and time as shall be designated by the board of directors and stated in the notice of the meeting or in a duly executed waiver of notice thereof.

2.2 Failure to Hold Annual Meeting.

Failure to hold any annual meeting shall not be cause for a winding up, dissolution, or termination of the Corporation. If the annual meeting is not held or a written consent instead of the annual meeting is not executed within any thirteen‑month period, any court of competent jurisdiction in the county in which the principal office of the Corporation is located may, on the application of any shareholder, summarily order a meeting to be held.

2.3 Special Meetings.

Special meetings of the shareholders may be called (1) by the chairman of the board of directors, the chief executive officer, the president, the board of directors, or such other person or persons as may be authorized in the Certificate of Formation or these Bylaws or (2) by the holders of at least twenty (20) percent of all the shares entitled to vote at the proposed special meeting. If not otherwise stated in or fixed in accordance with these Bylaws, for a special meeting called by shareholders, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to call such meeting is the date the first shareholder signs the notice of such meeting. Only business within the purpose or purposes described in the notice required in Section 2.4 of these Bylaws may be conducted at a special meeting of the shareholders.

2.4 Notice and Waivers of Notice.

Except as provided in Section 6.053 of the Texas Business Organizations Code, written or printed notice conforming to the provisions of Section 8.6 of these Bylaws shall be delivered to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting not less than ten (10) days nor more than

sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting. Such notice shall be sent by, or at the direction of, the president, the secretary, or the officer or persons calling the meeting. If made available, each notice of meeting may give directions that will allow a shareholder to participate by telephonic or electronic participation in the meeting in a manner described in Section 8.7 of these Bylaws. Unless required by the Certificate of Formation, the business to be transacted at the annual meeting of the shareholders, or the purpose of such a meeting, is not required to be specified in the notice thereof or in a written waiver of notice of the meeting. In the case of a special meeting, the notice of meeting shall state the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, but the purpose or purposes of a special meeting is not required to be specified in a written waiver of notice of such a meeting. Notice of a meeting of the shareholders may be waived as provided in Section 8.6 of these Bylaws.

2.5 Attendance by Conference Telephone or other Communications Equipment.

Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Formation, if made available, any shareholder may participate in any meeting by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment as provided in Section 8.7 of these Bylaws.

2.6 Record Dates for Matters other than Consents to Action.

For the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive a distribution by the Corporation (other than a distribution involving a purchase or redemption by the Corporation of any of its own shares) or a share dividend, or in order to make a determination of shareholders for any other purpose (other than determining shareholders entitled to consent to action by shareholders proposed to be taken without a meeting of shareholders), the board of directors may provide that the share transfer records shall be closed for a stated period not to exceed sixty (60) days. If the share transfer records shall be closed for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, such records shall be closed for at least ten (10) days immediately preceding such meeting. In lieu of closing the share transfer records, the board of directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of shareholders, such date to be not more than sixty (60) days and not less than ten (10) days prior to the date on which the particular action requiring such determination of shareholders is to be taken. If the share transfer records are not closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders or shareholders entitled to receive a distribution (other than a distribution involving a purchase or redemption by the Corporation of any of its own shares) or a share dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the board of directors declaring such distribution or share dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of shareholders. When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in this Section, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof except where the determination has been made through the closing of the share transfer records and the stated period of closing has expired.

2.7 Voting List.

2.7.1 The officer or agent having charge of the stock transfer books for shares of the Corporation shall make, at least eleven (11) days before each meeting of shareholders, a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at such meeting or any adjournment

thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, with the address of each shareholder, the type of shares held by each shareholder, the number of shares held by each shareholder, and the number of votes that each shareholder is entitled to cast if the number of such votes is different from the number of shares shown to be held by such shareholder, which list, for a period of ten (10) days prior to such meeting, shall be kept on file at the registered office of the Corporation and shall be subject to inspection by any shareholder at any time during usual business hours. Such list shall also be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any shareholder during the whole time of the meeting. If the meeting is to be held by remote communication, the notice of the meeting given pursuant to Section 2.4 of these Bylaws shall describe how the shareholder shall access the list of shareholders for the meeting. The original stock transfer book shall be prima facie evidence as to who are the shareholders entitled to examine such list or transfer books or vote at any meeting of shareholders.

2.7.2 Failure to comply with the requirements of this Section shall not affect the validity of any action taken at such meeting.

2.8 Quorum of Shareholders.

2.8.1 With respect to any matter, the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on that matter, if represented at the meeting in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum of the shareholders for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of Formation.

2.8.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Formation or these Bylaws, once a quorum is present at a meeting of shareholders, the shareholders represented in person or by proxy at the meeting may conduct such business as may be properly brought before the meeting until it is adjourned, and the subsequent withdrawal from the meeting of any shareholders or the refusal of any shareholder represented in person or by proxy to vote shall not affect the presence of a quorum at the meeting.

2.8.3 Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Formation or these Bylaws, the shareholders represented in person or by proxy at a meeting of shareholders at which a quorum is not present may adjourn the meeting until such time and to such place as may be determined by a vote of the holders of a majority of the shares represented in person or by proxy at that meeting.

2.9 Method of Voting.

Each outstanding share, regardless of class, shall be entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of shareholders, except to the extent that the Certificate of Formation (or any designation of the rights and privileges of shares properly established by the board of directors) provides for more or less than one vote per share or limits or denies voting rights to the holders of the shares of any class or series. Any shareholder may vote either in person or by proxy executed in writing by the shareholder or by his duly authorized attorney‑in‑fact. A telegram, telex, cablegram, or other form of electronic transmission, including telephonic transmission, by the shareholder or a photographic, photostatic, facsimile, or similar reproduction of a writing executed by the shareholder shall be treated as an execution in writing for purposes of this Section. Any

electronic transmission must contain or be accompanied by information from which it can be determined that the transmission was authorized by the shareholder. No proxy shall be valid after eleven (11) months from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy. A proxy shall be revocable unless the proxy form conspicuously states that the proxy is irrevocable and the proxy is coupled with an interest, such as in the case of a pledge; a person who purchased or agreed to purchase, or owns or holds an option to purchase the shares; a creditor of the Corporation who extended it credit under terms requiring appointment; an employee of the Corporation whose employment contract requires the appointment; or a party to a voting agreement created under Section 6.252 of the Texas Business Organizations Code or a shareholder’s agreement created under Section 21.101 of the Texas Business Organizations Code.

2.10 Action without Meetings.

2.10.1 Any action required or which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of shareholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice, and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holder or holders of shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to take such action at a meeting at which the holders of all shares entitled to vote on the action were present and voted

2.10.2 With respect to an action taken by consent of the shareholders by less than unanimous consent, the written consent shall bear the date of execution by each shareholder who signs such consent. Furthermore, no such written consent shall be effective unless, within sixty (60) days after the date of the earliest dated consent delivered to the Corporation, a consent or consents signed by the holder or holders of shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to take such action at a meeting at which the holders of all shares entitled to vote on the action were present and voted are delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the books in which proceedings of meetings of shareholders are recorded. In the case of a consent that is not solicited on behalf of the Corporation or the board of directors, delivery shall be by hand or certified or registered mail, return receipt requested or by electronic message and shall be addressed to the president at the principal executive office of the Corporation.

2.10.3 Prompt notice of the taking of any action by shareholders without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those shareholders who did not consent in writing to the action.

2.10.4 Any electronic transmission by a shareholder, or a photographic, photostatic, facsimile, or similar reliable reproduction of a consent in writing signed by a shareholder, shall be regarded as signed by the shareholder for purposes of this Section. An electronic transmission of a shareholder’s consent is considered a signed writing if the transmission contains or is accompanied by information from which:

(a) it can be determined that the electronic transmission was transmitted by the shareholder; and

(b) the date on which the shareholder transmitted the electronic transmission can be determined.

Unless the consent is otherwise dated, the date specified in Section 2.10.4(b) is the date on which the consent is considered signed.

2.11. Record Dates for Consents to Action.

Whenever action by shareholders is proposed to be taken by consent in writing without a meeting of shareholders, the board of directors may fix a record date for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to consent to that action, which shall not precede, and shall not be more than ten (10) days after, the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors. If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors and prior action of the board of directors is not required by the Texas Business Organizations Code, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to consent to action in writing without a meeting shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office, registered agent, principal place of business, transfer agent, registrar, exchange agent, or an officer or agent having custody of the books in which proceedings of meetings of shareholders are recorded. Delivery of any such consent shall be by hand or certified or registered mail, return receipt requested or by electronic transmission and shall be addressed to the president or principal executive officer of the Corporation. If no record date shall have been fixed by the board of directors and prior action of the board of directors is required by the Texas Business Organizations Code, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to consent to action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the date on which the board of directors adopts a resolution taking such prior action.

3. DIRECTORS.

3.1. Powers.

No decrease in the number of directors shall have the effect of shortening the term of any incumbent director. Any directorship to be filled by reason of an increase in the number of directors may be filled by election at an annual or special meeting of shareholders called for that purpose or, at the option of the board of directors, may be filled by the board of directors for a term of office continuing only until the next election of one or more directors by the shareholders; provided, however, that the board of directors may not fill more than two (2) such directorships during the period between any two (2) successive annual meetings of shareholders.

3.3 Election.

3.6 Vacancies.

Any vacancy in the board of directors caused by death, resignation, removal, or other than by reason of an increase in the number of directors, may be filled by a majority of the remaining directors though less than a quorum of the board of directors, or in the event there are no remaining directors, by the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on that matter.

The Advisory Directors shall not be directors for purposes of these Bylaws or “directors” for purposes of the Texas Business Organizations Code and shall have no authority to act, to enter into any contract, to incur any liability or to make any representation or warranties on behalf of the Corporation. The directors shall have no obligation to consult with or seek any advice of the Advisory Directors with respect to any action taken by the board of directors for such action to be valid. Advisory Directors shall receive from the Corporation such remuneration as shall be fixed by the board of directors. Terms of the Advisory Directors shall expire on the day of the annual meeting of the Corporation, provided, however, that Advisory Directors shall serve at the pleasure of the board of directors and may be removed at any time with or without cause by a vote of the board of directors. For purposes of Article 7 hereof (Indemnification), the board of directors may authorize that the Advisory Directors of the Corporation may enjoy the same rights and privileges as directors of the Corporation. The Corporation may require any Advisory Director to enter into an agreement with respect to its duties and obligations from time to time as a condition of their appointment. The Board may take action to more particularly describe the duties and roles of the Advisory Directors by adopting a charter for an advisory board of directors so long as such charter is not inconsistent with the Texas Business Organizations Code or this Section 3.7.

Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the board of directors or any committee may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by all the members of the board of directors or committee, as the case may be.

The board of directors, by resolution adopted by a majority of the full board of directors, may designate from among its members one or more committees, each of which shall be comprised of one or more of its members, and may designate one or more of its members as alternate members of any committee, who may, subject to any limitations imposed by the board of directors, replace absent or disqualified members at any meeting of that committee. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 21.416(c) of the Texas Business Organizations Code, any such committee shall have and may exercise such power as the board of directors may determine and specify in the respective resolutions appointing them. A majority of all the members of any such committee may determine its action and fix the time and place of its meeting, unless the board of directors shall otherwise provide. The board of directors shall have power at any time to change the number, power, and members of any such committee, to fill vacancies and to discharge any such committee.

6.1 Certificates.

The shares of the Corporation shall be represented by certificates signed by the president or a vice president and the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation, and may be sealed with the seal of the Corporation or a facsimile thereof. The signatures of the president or vice president and the secretary or assistant secretary upon a certificate may be facsimiles if the certificate is countersigned by a transfer agent, or registered by a registrar, other than the Corporation itself or an employee of the Corporation.

6.4 Registered Holders as Owners.

Neither the Corporation nor any of its officers, directors, employees, or agents shall be liable for considering the person who is registered as the owner of a share in the share transfer records of the Corporation at a particular time to be the owner of the share at that time for such purposes, regardless of whether that person possesses a certificate for those shares.

7. PROTECTION OF OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND EMPLOYEES.

7.1 Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits, or Proceedings other than those by or in the Right of the Corporation.

Subject to Section 7.3 of this Article 7, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, manager, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee or agent or similar functionary of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (hereinafter referred to as a “Delegate”), against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement that are reasonable and actually incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity, to be in the Corporation’s best interest and (ii) in all other cases was not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity, to be in the Corporation’s best interest and (ii) in all other cases was not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

In the event that a person is found liable to the Corporation or is found liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by such person, the indemnification (i) is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred by the person in connection with the proceeding, (ii) shall not include a judgment, penalty, fine, or any excise or similar tax, including excise tax assessed against the person with respect to an employee benefit plan, and (iii) shall not be made (even as to expenses) in respect of any proceeding in which the person shall have been found liable for willful or intentional misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the Corporation, for breach of his or her duty of loyalty owed to the Corporation, or for an act or omission not committed in good faith that constitutes a breach of a duty owed by him or her to the Corporation.

7.2 Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits, or Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation.

Subject to Section 7.3 hereof and to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or a Delegate against reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity, to be in the Corporation’s best interest and (ii) in all other cases was not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.

7.3 Authorization of Indemnification.

Any indemnification of a director or officer under this Article 7 (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation upon a determination that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 of this Article 7, as the case may be and with respect to expenses, the amount of expenses other than a judgment is reasonable. Such determination shall be made (i) by the board of directors by a majority vote of those directors who at the time of the vote are disinterested and independent regardless of whether such directors constitute a quorum, (ii) by majority vote of a committee of the directors duly designated by a majority vote of the directors who at the time of the vote are disinterested and independent, regardless of whether the directors who are disinterested and independent constitute a quorum and consisting solely of one or more directors who are disinterested and independent, (iii) by special legal counsel selected by the directors or a committee by vote in accordance with (i) or (ii) above in a written opinion, (iv) by the shareholders of the Corporation entitled to vote on such matter in a vote that excludes the shares held by each director who is not disinterested and independent, or (v) by a unanimous vote of the shareholders entitled to vote on such matter. To the extent, however, that current or former director or officer of the Corporation or Delegate has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by him or her in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

Any indemnification under this Article 7 shall be made promptly and, in any event, to the extent practicable, within sixty days of receipt by the Corporation of the written request of the person to be indemnified.

7.4 Good Faith Defined.

For purposes of any determination under Section 7.3 of this Article 7, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct

in his or her official capacity, to be in the Corporation’s best interest and (ii) in all other cases was not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, if his or her action is based on the records or books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or on information supplied to him or her by the officers of the Corporation or the officers of another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Corporation or another enterprise. The term “another enterprise” as used in this Section 7.4 shall mean any other limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise of which such person is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, manager, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee or agent or similar functionary. The provisions of this Section 7.4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 7.1 or 7.2 of this Article 7, as the case may be.

7.5 Indemnification by a Court.

Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 7.3 of this Article 7 and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any current or former director or officer or Delegate may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Texas for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Sections 7.1 and 7.2 of this Article 7. Such court may order indemnification to the extent the court determines that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in view of all the relevant circumstances. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.5 shall be given to the Corporation promptly upon the filing of such application. If such application is successful, in whole or in part, the director or officer or Delegate seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of securing the indemnification. Indemnification ordered by a court may be limited to the extent provided in Section 8.052 of the Texas Business Organizations Code.

7.6 Expenses Payable in Advance.

Expenses incurred by a present director or officer or Delegate in defending or investigating a threatened or pending action, suit or proceeding described above shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding without making the determinations required under Section 7.3 hereof within fourteen days after receipt by the Corporation of a written statement from such director or officer or Delegate requesting such an advancement, together with a written affirmation by the person of the person’s good faith belief that the person has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under Section 7.3 hereof in addition to an undertaking, if required by law at the time of such advance, by or on behalf of such director or officer or Delegate to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article 7 or otherwise prohibited from being indemnified.

7.7 Nonexclusivity of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to this Article 7 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or

advancement of expenses may be entitled under any governing document, agreement, contract, vote of members or disinterested directors or pursuant to the direction (howsoever embodied) of any court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, both as to action taken (or omitted to be taken) in his or her official capacity and as to action taken (or omitted to be taken) in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the Corporation that indemnification of the persons specified in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 of this Article 7 shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. The provisions of this Article 7 shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Sections 7.1 or 7.2 of this Article 7 but whom the Corporation has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the Texas Business Organizations Code, or otherwise.

7.8 Insurance.

The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or a Delegate against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the Texas Business Organizations Code or the provisions of this Article 7. The Corporation may also obtain a letter of credit, act as self-insurer, create a reserve, trust, escrow, cash collateral or other fund or account, enter into indemnification agreements, pledge or grant a security interest in any assets or properties of the Corporation, or use any other mechanism or arrangement whatsoever in such amounts, at such costs, and upon such other terms and conditions as the board of directors shall deem appropriate for the protection of any or all such persons.

7.9 Miscellaneous.

The following provisions shall apply to this Article 7:

7.9.1 references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting company, any constituent company or corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, managers, and officers, so that any person who is or was a director or officer of such constituent entity, or is or was a director, manager, or officer of such constituent entity serving at the request of such constituent entity as a director, officer, manager, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee or agent or similar functionary of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article 7 with respect to the resulting or surviving entity as he or she would have with respect to such constituent entity if its separate existence had continued.

7.9.2 references to “fines” shall be deemed to include (i) penalties imposed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the "NRC") pursuant to Section 206 of the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974 and Part 21 of NRC regulations thereunder, as they may be amended from time to time, and any other penalties, whether similar or dissimilar, imposed by the NRC, and (ii) excise taxes assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as it may be amended from time to time, ("ERISA").;

7.9.3 references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, or Delegate of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, or Delegate with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries;

7.9.4 a person who acted in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as referred to in this Article 7;

7.9.5 an action taken or omitted by a Delegate for a purpose reasonably believed by the person to be in the interest of the other enterprise or its owners or members is for a purpose that is “not opposed to the best interest of the enterprise” as referred to in this Article 7; and

7.9.6 any act, omission, step or conduct taken or had in good faith by a director, officer, or Delegate which is required, authorized or approved by any order or orders issued pursuant to any federal statute or any state statute or municipal ordinance shall be deemed to meet the standard of conduct required for indemnification hereunder.

7.10 Survival of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article 7 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

7.11 Limitation on Indemnification.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article to the contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification (which shall be governed by Section 7.5 hereof), the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the board of directors of the Corporation.

7.12 Indemnification of Advisory Directors, Employees and Agents.

The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the board of directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to directors, Advisory Directors, officers, employees and agents of the Corporation or of its wholly or partially owned, direct or indirect affiliated or subsidiary companies similar to those conferred in this Article 7 to directors and officers of the Corporation.

7.13 Repeal or Modification.

All rights to indemnification and to advancement of expenses under this Article 7 shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director and officer who serves or has served in any such capacity, and each other person as to whom the Corporation has agreed to grant indemnity at any time while this Article is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this Article or

any repeal or modification of relevant provisions of the Texas Business Organizations Code or any other applicable law shall not in any way diminish any right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses of such director, officer or other person as to whom the Corporation has agreed to grant indemnity, or the obligations of the Corporation, arising hereunder for claims relating to matters occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

7.14 Separability.

If this Article 7 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each director and officer, and each employee, agent and other person as to whom the Corporation has agreed to grant indemnity to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article 7 that shall not have been invalidated and to the full extent permitted by applicable law.

determines (a) contains or discloses information in the nature of trade secrets, (b) is required to be kept confidential by the Corporation or any affiliate by law or by agreement with any third party, or (c) is information the disclosure of which is not in the best interests of or could damage the Corporation or any of its affiliates.

Whenever any notice is required to be given to directors or shareholders under the provisions of applicable statutes, the Certificate of Formation, or these Bylaws, a waiver thereof in writing signed by the person or persons entitled to such notice, whether before or after the time for such meeting, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

The parties to the Agreement hereby form a limited liability company to be governed by the Certificate of Formation, by this Agreement, and by the Act.

The name of the Company shall be Entergy New Orleans, LLC; provided, however, that (a) the Company’s business may be conducted under one or more assumed names deemed advisable by the Board of Directors, and (b) the Board of Directors in their sole discretion may change the name of the Company at any time and from time to time, and may amend the Company Agreement and make any necessary filings to effectuate such name change without the consent of the Members.

2.3 Principal Place of Business.

The principal place of business of the Company shall be at 1600 Perdido Street, New Orleans, Louisiana 70112 or at such location within or without the State of Louisiana as may be determined by the Board of Directors.

The Company is organized for the transaction of any and all lawful purposes for which a limited liability company may be organized under the Act.

2.6 Independent Activities of Directors, Members and Officers.

Except as otherwise agreed in writing or as arising out of an employment or other relationship outside of this Agreement, the Members, directly or through their respective affiliates, Directors and Officers (as defined below) may, notwithstanding this Agreement, engage in whatever activities they choose, whether or not those activities are competitive with those of the Company, without having or incurring any obligation to offer any interest in such activities to the Company or any Member.

2.7 Contracts or Transactions Involving Interested Governing Persons or Officers.

Without limitation of any other law or principle that validates interested party transactions, a contract or transaction between the Company and a Person described in Section 101.255 of the Act is presumed fair to the Company when authorized, approved or ratified by the Board of Directors or a responsible Officer if such contract or transaction (a) has been authorized or approved by, or is subject to the authorization or approval of, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”), the New Orleans City Council, or any other retail regulator or commission with jurisdiction over the Company, such Person, the contract or transaction (each a “Governmental Authority”), (b) is pursuant to or in compliance with any order of a Governmental Authority, or (c) is pursuant to a FERC-approved tariff such as the tariff of the Midcontinent Independent System Operator, Inc. regional transmission organization. The fact that any Governmental Authority shall subsequently deny recovery of any cost or expense under or related to any such contract or transaction in the Company’s rates or determine that such cost or expense was not prudently incurred shall not alter the presumption that such contract or transaction was fair to the Company when authorized, approved or ratified.

3. CAPITAL

3.1 Units.

Membership interests in the Company shall be designated as Units (“Units”). There shall be one class of Units referred to as Common Units. The Company is authorized to issue a total of one thousand (1,000) Common Units. The Company may issue to its Members certificates representing the Units owned by each Member. Such certificates shall be signed on behalf of the Company by the President or a Vice President of the Company and by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company, certifying the number of Units owned by each Member. The certificates shall be consecutively numbered and shall be entered in the books of the Company or the records of a registrar or transfer agent, if the Company elects to retain the services of a registrar or transfer agent, as they are issued. If any Officer of the Company shall have ceased to be such Officer before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Company with the same effect as if he or she were such Officer at the date of issue.

Each Unit and the related membership interest will constitute a “security” within the meaning of, and governed by, Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code (including Section 8.103 thereof) as in effect from time to time in the State of Texas (the “UCC”). Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent with any non-waivable provision of Article 8 of the UCC as in effect in the State of Texas, such provision of Article 8 of the UCC shall control.

The Board of Directors or any Officer authorized by the Board of Directors for such purposes may direct a new certificate to be issued in place of any certificate theretofore issued by the Company alleged to have been lost, stolen, or destroyed upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate to be lost, stolen, or destroyed. When authorizing such

issue of a new certificate, the Board of Directors or such authorized Officer may, in his or her discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, prescribe such terms and conditions as they, he or she deems expedient and may require such indemnities as they, he or she deems adequate to protect the Company from any claim that may be made against it with respect to any such certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

Units shall be transferable only on the books of the Company by the holder thereof in person or by his or her duly authorized attorney. Upon surrender to the Company or the transfer agent of the Company of a certificate for Units duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer, a new certificate shall be issued to the person entitled thereto and the old certificate cancelled and the transaction recorded upon the books of the Company.

3.2 Registered Holders as Owners.

3.2.1 The Company may regard the person in whose name any Units issued by the Company are registered in the transfer records of the Company at any particular time as the owner of those Units at that time for purposes of voting those Units, receiving distributions thereon or notices in respect thereof, transferring those Units, exercising rights relating thereto, or giving proxies with respect thereto; and

3.2.2 Neither the Company nor any of its Officers, Directors, employees, or agents shall be liable for regarding that person as the owner of those Units at that time for those purposes, regardless of whether that person possesses a certificate for those Units.

3.3 Record Dates.

For the purpose of determining Members entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of Members or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive a distribution by the Company, or in order to make a determination of Members for any other purpose (other than determining Members entitled to consent to action by Members proposed to be taken without a meeting of Members), the Board of Directors may provide that the transfer records shall be closed for a stated period, not to exceed, in any case, sixty (60) days. If the transfer records shall be closed for the purpose of determining Members entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Members, such records shall be closed for at least ten (10) days immediately preceding such meeting. In lieu of closing the transfer records, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of Members, such date in any case to be not more than sixty (60) days and, in the case of a meeting of Members, not less than ten (10) days, prior to the date on which the particular action requiring such determination of Members is to be taken. With respect to any record date, the record ownership of Units as of such date shall be determined as of the opening of business on such date. If the transfer records are not closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of Members entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Members, or Members entitled to receive a distribution, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such distribution is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of Members. When a determination of Members entitled to vote at any meeting of Members has been made as provided in this Section, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof except where the determination has been made through the closing of the transfer records and the stated period of closing has expired.

Whenever action by Members is proposed to be taken by consent in writing without a meeting of Members, the Board of Directors may fix a record date for the purpose of determining Members entitled to consent to that action, which shall not precede, and shall not be more than ten (10) days after, the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action of the Board of Directors is not required by the Act, the record date for determining Members entitled to consent to action in writing without a meeting shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Company by delivery to its registered office, registered agent, principal place of business, an Officer or agent having custody of the books in which proceedings of meetings of Members are recorded, or any transfer agent, registrar, or exchange agent, if applicable. Delivery shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. Delivery to the Company’s principal place of business shall be addressed to the Secretary or principal executive officer of the Company. If no record date shall have been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action of the Board of Directors is required by the Act, the record date for determining Members entitled to consent to action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the date on which the Board of Directors adopts a resolution taking such prior action.

Except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing, no Member in its capacity as such shall have any fiduciary duty of any kind toward the Company or any other Member. No measure of control over the Company’s business, and no special knowledge, held by a Member will impose on that Member in its capacity as such any fiduciary duty of any kind toward the Company or any other Member. Except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing, no arrangement or relationship between a Member and the Company or between that Member and another Member will create for any other Member in its capacity as such a fiduciary duty toward the Member having such an arrangement or relationship.

3.7 No Preemptive Rights.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have any preemptive, preferential, or other right with respect to the issuance or sale of Units that may be issued or sold by the Company.

Subject to Section 10.3 of this Article 10, the Company shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a Director or Officer of the Company, or is or was a Director or Officer of the Company serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, manager, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee or agent or similar functionary of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (hereinafter referred to as a “Delegate”), against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement that are reasonable and actually incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity, to be in the Company’s best interest and (ii) in all other cases was not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he or she had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity, to be in the Company’s best interest and (ii) in all other cases was not

opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he or she had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

In the event that a person is found liable to the Company or is found liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by such person, the indemnification (i) is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred by the person in connection with the proceeding, (ii) shall not include a judgment, penalty, fine, or any excise or similar tax, including excise tax assessed against the person with respect to an employee benefit plan, and (iii) shall not be made (even as to expenses) in respect of any proceeding in which the person shall have been found liable for willful or intentional misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the Company, for breach of his or her duty of loyalty owed to the Company, or for an act or omission not committed in good faith that constitutes a breach of a duty owed by him or her to the Company.

10.2 Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company.

Subject to Section 10.3 hereof and to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a Director or Officer of the Company or a Delegate against reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity, to be in the Company’s best interest and (ii) in all other cases was not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he or she had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.

10.3 Authorization of Indemnification.

Any indemnification of a Director or Officer under this Article 10 (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company upon a determination that indemnification of the Director or Officer is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 10.1 or Section 10.2 of this Article 10, as the case may be and with respect to expenses, the amount of expenses other than a judgment is reasonable. Such determination shall be made (i) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of those Directors who at the time of the vote are disinterested and independent regardless of whether such directors constitute a quorum, or (ii) by majority vote of a committee of the Directors duly designated by a majority vote of the directors who at the time of the vote are disinterested and independent, regardless of whether the Directors who are disinterested and independent constitute a quorum and consisting solely of one or more Directors who are disinterested and independent, or (iii) by special legal counsel selected by the Directors or a committee by vote in accordance with (i) or (ii) above in a written opinion, or (iv) by the Members of the Company in a vote that excludes the Units held by each Director who is not disinterested and independent, or (v) by a unanimous vote of the Members. To the extent, however, that a current or former Director or Officer of the Company or a Delegate has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or

proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by him or her in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

Any indemnification under this Article 10 shall be made promptly and, in any event, to the extent practicable, within sixty (60) days of receipt by the Company of the written request of the person to be indemnified.

10.4 Good Faith Defined

For purposes of any determination under Section 10.3 of this Article 10, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed, (i) in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity, to be in the Company’s best interest and (ii) in all other cases, was not opposed to the best interests of the Company, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he or she had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, if his or her action is based on the records or books of account of the Company or another enterprise, or on information supplied to him or her by the Officers of the Company or the officers of another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Company or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Company or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Company or another enterprise. The term “another enterprise” as used in this Section 10.4 shall mean any other limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise of which such person is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, manager, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee or agent or similar functionary. The provisions of this Section 10.4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 10.1 or 10.2 of this Article 10, as the case may be.

10.5 Indemnification by a Court.

Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 10.3 of this Article 10 and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any current or former Director or Officer or Delegate may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Texas for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of this Article 10. Such court may order indemnification to the extent the court determines that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in view of all the relevant circumstances. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be given to the Company promptly upon the filing of such application. If such application is successful, in whole or in part, the Director or Officer or Delegate seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of securing the indemnification. Indemnification ordered by a court may be limited to the extent provided in Section 8.052 of the Act.

10.6 Expenses Payable in Advance.

Expenses incurred by a present Director or Officer or Delegate in defending or investigating a threatened or pending action, suit or proceeding described above shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding without making the determinations required under Section 10.3 hereof within fourteen (14) days after receipt by the Company of a written statement from such Director or Officer or Delegate requesting such an

advancement, together with a written affirmation by the person of the person’s good faith belief that the person has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under Section 10.3 hereof in addition to an undertaking, if required by law at the time of such advance, by or on behalf of such Director or Officer or Delegate to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized in this Article 10 or otherwise prohibited from being indemnified.

10.7 Nonexclusivity of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to this Article 10 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any governing document, agreement, contract, or vote of members or disinterested Directors or pursuant to the direction (howsoever embodied) of any court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, both as to action taken (or omitted to be taken) in his or her official capacity and as to action taken (or omitted to be taken) in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the Company that indemnification of the persons specified in Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of this Article 10 shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. The provisions of this Article 10 shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Sections 10.1 or 10.2 of this Article 10 but whom the Company has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the Act, or otherwise.

10.8 Insurance.

The Company may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any Director, Officer, employee or agent of the Company or a Delegate against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the Act or the provisions of this Article 10. The Company may also obtain a letter of credit, act as self-insurer, create a reserve, trust, escrow, cash collateral or other fund or account, enter into indemnification agreements, pledge or grant a security interest in any assets or properties of the Company, or use any other mechanism or arrangement whatsoever in such amounts, at such costs, and upon such other terms and conditions as the Board of Directors shall deem appropriate for the protection of any or all such persons.

10.9 Certain Definitions.

For purposes of this Article 10, references to “the Company” shall include, in addition to the resulting company, any constituent company or corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, managers, and officers, so that any person who is or was a director or officer of such constituent entity, or is or was a director, manager, or officer of such constituent entity serving at the request of such constituent entity as a director, officer, manager, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee or agent or similar functionary of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article 10 with respect to the resulting or surviving entity as he or she would have with respect to such constituent entity if its separate existence had continued. For purposes of this Article 10, references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Company” shall include any service as a Director or Officer of the Company which imposes duties on, or involves

services by, such Director or Officer with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; a person who acted in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Company” as referred to in this Article 10; and an action taken or omitted by a Delegate for a purpose reasonably believed by the person to be in the interest of the other enterprise or its owners or members is for a purpose that is “not opposed to the best interests of the enterprise” as referred to in this Article 10.

10.10 Survival of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article 10 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Director or Officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

10.11 Limitation on Indemnification.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article to the contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification (which shall be governed by Section 10.5 hereof), the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify any Director or Officer in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company.

10.12 Indemnification of Advisory Directors, Employees and Agents.

The Company may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to Directors, Advisory Directors, Officers, employees and agents of the Company or of its wholly or partially owned, direct or indirect affiliated or subsidiary companies similar to those conferred in this Article 10 to Directors and Officers of the Company.

10.13 Repeal or Modification.

All rights to indemnification and to advancement of expenses under this Article 10 shall be deemed to be a contract between the Company and each Director and Officer who serves or has served in any such capacity, and each other person as to whom the Company has agreed to grant indemnity at any time while this Article is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this Article or any repeal or modification of relevant provisions of the Act or any other applicable law shall not in any way diminish any right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses of such Director, Officer or other person as to whom the Company has agreed to grant indemnity, or the obligations of the Company, arising hereunder for claims relating to matters occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

10.14 Separability.

If this Article 10 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify each Director and Officer, and each employee, agent and other person as to whom the Company has agreed to grant indemnity to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article 10 that shall not have been invalidated and to the full extent permitted by applicable law.

11. MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND MEMBERS

11.1 Place.

Meetings of the Board of Directors, regular or special, may be held either within or without the State of Texas. Meetings may be held by telephonic conference.

11.2 First Meeting of Board of Directors.

After the Certificate of Formation is filed with the Secretary of State, an organizational meeting of the initial Directors named as the initial “managers” in the Certificate of Formation shall be held, either within or without the State of Texas, at the call of a majority of the Directors named as “managers” in the Certificate of Formation, for the purpose of submitting this Agreement for adoption by the Company and transacting such other business as may come before the meeting. The Directors calling the meeting shall give at least one day’s notice thereof to each Director so named, stating the time and place of the meeting.

11.3 Regular Meetings.

Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held with or without notice, unless notice is required under this Agreement, and at such time and at such place as shall from time to time be determined by the Board of Directors.

11.4 Special Meetings.

Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by any Director. Notice of each special meeting of the Board of Directors shall be given to each Director at least 24 hours before the date of the meeting.

11.5 Notice and Waiver of Notice.

Attendance of a Director at any meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a Director attends for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Any Director, whether or not attending, may waive notice by the execution of a written waiver. Except as may be otherwise provided by this Agreement, neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such meeting.

11.6 Quorum of Directors, Acts of Board of Directors.

At all meetings of the Board of Directors, a majority of the Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, unless a different number or percentage is required by the Act, the Certificate of Formation or this Agreement. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of Board of Directors, the Directors present at that meeting may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present. The act of a majority of the Directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board of Directors. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any sub-committee thereof may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board of Directors or sub-committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or sub-committee. Any and all actions of the Board of Directors must be taken at a duly authorized meeting of the Board of Directors or upon unanimous written consent of the Board of Directors.

11.7 Committees.

The Board of Directors, by resolution, may designate from among the Directors one or more committees, each of which shall be comprised of one or more of the Directors, and may designate one or more of the Directors as alternate members of any committee, who may, subject to any limitations imposed by the Board of Directors, replace absent or disqualified Directors at any meeting of that committee. Any such committee shall have and may exercise all of the authority of the Board of Directors, subject to the limitations set out in Section 101.253 of the Act and the provisions of this Agreement. The Board may take action to establish a committee by adopting a charter for such committee which describes the duties and obligations of such committee and its members so long as such charter is not inconsistent with the Act or this Section 11.7.

11.8 Delegation.

The Board of Directors may from time to time delegate specific authorities and responsibilities to one or more Directors who, pursuant to such delegations, will have the power to exercise such responsibilities and the obligation to fulfill such responsibilities without the joinder or consent of the other Directors.

11.9 Meetings of Members.

An annual meeting of the Members shall be held at such time and place as the Board of Directors shall specify, which date shall be within 13 months after the last annual meeting of Members, but failure to hold any such annual meeting shall not affect otherwise valid acts of the Company or work a forfeiture or dissolution of the Company. Members holding at least an aggregate 20% of all Units, or any Director, may also call a meeting of the Members. All such meetings shall be held not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of written notice thereof, at such place in or outside of Texas as the notice shall specify. The notice shall describe the matters to be considered at the meeting, and no matter other than those described in the notice may be taken up at the meeting. Members holding a Majority in Interest of the Members shall constitute a quorum. Any Member attending the meeting shall be deemed to have waived notice thereof unless he or she is attending for the exclusive purpose of objecting to the validity of the meeting. Any Member, whether or not attending, may waive notice by the execution of a written waiver. If all Members waive notice, a meeting shall be valid even though proper or timely notice thereof may not have been given, and any matter may be considered at such a meeting whether

or not described in the notice of the meeting. Nothing in this Section 11.9 will create or enlarge any voting right with respect to any Units whose voting rights have been limited or eliminated.

11.10 Action Without Meetings.

As provided in Section 6.202 of the Act and subject to the timing and notice requirements of that section, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Members may be taken without holding a meeting, providing notice, or taking a vote if a written consent stating the action taken is executed by the Members having at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to take such action at a meeting at which all Members entitled to vote on the action are present and vote. Nothing in this Section 11.10 will create or enlarge any voting right with respect to any Units whose voting rights have been limited or eliminated.

12 ADMISSION AND WITHDRAWAL OF MEMBERS; TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS.

12.1 Units Acquired Directly From The Company.

After the formation of the Company, the Board of Directors may admit any Person as a new Member upon the payment to the Company of the consideration for the Units acquired by him, as established from time to time by the Board of Directors. Any Person becoming a Member shall execute a written acknowledgment that he or she has read this Agreement, the Certificate of Formation, and all amendments hereto and thereto and that he or she agrees to be bound by the terms of the Company Agreement.

12.2 Right of Transferee to Become a Member.

A transferee of all or part of a Member’s Membership Interest whose ownership is recorded in the transfer records of the Company in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof shall become a Member, and shall have all of the rights and privileges arising out of or associated with the assigned Membership Interest, without any further action of the Company, the Board of Directors, or the Members. The assignor of such Membership Interest will cease to be a Member upon the effectiveness of the assignment when recorded in the transfer records of the Company in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof.

Any Person becoming a substituted Member shall pay the reasonable costs of such substitution incurred by the Company.

12.3 Withdrawal by a Member.

No Member may withdraw from membership in the Company prior to the dissolution and winding up of the Company without the written consent of the Members. If consent is given, the withdrawal shall be on such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may deem appropriate in their sole discretion.

13. DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION

13.1 Causes of Dissolution.

The Company shall be dissolved upon the earliest to occur of the following:

13.1.1 The unanimous agreement of the Members that the Company should be dissolved;

13.1.2 The retirement, resignation or dissolution of the last remaining Member or the occurrence of any other event that terminates the continued membership of the last remaining Member in the Company unless the business of the Company is continued in a manner permitted by the Act; or

13.1.3 Entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 11.051(5) of the Act.

13.2 Winding Up.

Upon the dissolution of the Company, unless the business of the Company is continued as provided in Section 13.1.2 of this Agreement, the Company shall continue solely for the purposes of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its property, and satisfying the claims of its creditors and Members. No Director shall have the authority to take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, the winding up of the Company’s business and affairs. The Board of Directors (or, in the event there is no remaining Director, any Person elected by a Majority in Interest of the Members) shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up of the Company and shall take full account of the Company’s liabilities and property. The Company property shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom, to the extent sufficient therefor, shall be applied and distributed in the following order:

13.2.1 First, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to creditors other than the Members;

13.2.2 Second, to the payment and discharge of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to the Members; and

13.2.3 Thereafter, the balance, if any, to the Members in proportion to their ownership of Units.

In the discretion of the Board of Directors or other person in charge of winding up, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Members pursuant to this Article 13 may be distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the Members for the purposes of liquidating Company assets, collecting amounts owed to the Company, and paying any contested, contingent, or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company arising out of or in connection with the Company. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Members, from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors or other person in charge of winding up, in the same proportions among the Members as such amount would have been distributed directly from the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

14. GENERAL PROVISIONS

14.1 Confidentiality of Company Records.

No Member or assignee of a Member (or representative of either) shall have a right under the Act or this Agreement to inspect, examine, copy, or receive a disclosure of any of the Company’s information, documents, or records except for a proper purpose. In response to any request (even if for a proper purpose) by a Member or assignee of a Member (or representative of either) for such an inspection, examination, copying, or disclosure, the Company may deny access by such Member or assignee of a Member (or representative of either) to any information, document, or record that is not described in Section 101.502(a) of the Act and that the Board of Directors (or any officer to whom the authority of this Section shall have been delegated) determines (a) contains or discloses information in the nature of trade secrets, (b) is required to be kept confidential by the Company or any affiliate by law or by agreement with any third party, or (c) is information the disclosure of which is not in the best interests of or could damage the Company or any of its affiliates. Additionally, the Company may require any Member or assignee of a Member (or representative or either) requesting (even if for a proper purpose) an inspection, examination, copying, or disclosure of any of the Company’s information, documents, or records (including information, documents, and records described in Section 101.502(a) of the Act) to enter into a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement prior to receiving any requested information, documents, or records.

Any notice, request, payment, demand, or communication required or permitted to be given by any provision of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally to the Person or to an officer of the Person to whom the same is directed, or sent by regular, registered, or certified mail, by overnight courier, or by telecopy, addressed as follows, or to such other address as such Person may from time to time specify by notice to the Board of Directors and Members:

If an attempt to give notice by facsimile transmission fails because of any problem with the recipient’s designated facsimile number or facsimile equipment, such notice will nevertheless be considered to have been effected on the day of that attempted transmission if it is also transmitted that day by overnight delivery to the recipient and is actually received on the next following business day. Any Person may from time to time specify a different address by notice to the Board of Directors and Members.

14.5 Variation of Pronouns.

All pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the identity of the Person or Persons may require. The use of the singular shall include a reference to the plural and vice-versa unless the context clearly requires otherwise.

14.12 Amendments.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Agreement, no amendment, modification, or change of the Agreement, or any part thereof, shall be valid and effective unless made in writing and signed by all of the Members.

14.13 Waivers.

Except where a specific time period is provided hereunder for the exercise of a right or remedy, any party’s forbearance in the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy under this Agreement will not constitute a waiver thereof, and a waiver under one circumstance will not constitute a waiver under any other circumstance.

The Predecessor hereby confirms that, in a merger in accordance with the Texas Business Organizations Code, it irrevocably allocated to the Successor, and the Successor hereby confirms that, in a merger in accordance with the Texas Business Organizations Code, it irrevocably accepted such allocation and assumed from such Predecessor, subject to and in accordance with Section 2.19 of the Credit Agreement, as of the date of this Borrower Assumption Agreement, (i) all of such Predecessor’s rights and obligations in its capacity as the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document (including, without limitation, those obligations under the Loan Documents arising from events that occurred before the date of this Borrower Assumption Agreement and those obligations that expressly survive the repayment of all amounts under the Loan Documents or termination of the Commitments) and (ii) to the extent permitted to be allocated under applicable law, all claims, suits, causes of action, and any other right of the Predecessor (in its capacity as a Borrower) against any Person, whether known or unknown, arising under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, any other documents or instruments delivered pursuant thereto or the loan transactions governed thereby or in any way based on or related to any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, contract claims, tort claims, malpractice claims, statutory claims, and all other claims at law or in equity related to the rights and obligations allocated pursuant to clause (i) above (the rights and obligations allocated by the Predecessor to the Successor pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above being referred to herein collectively as the “Allocated Interest”). The allocation is without recourse to the Predecessor and without representation or warranty by the Predecessor. The Successor hereby agrees to become the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and shall have all of the obligations of the Borrower thereunder as if it had executed the Credit Agreement.

3. Further Assurances. The Successor agrees to take, and, to the extent legally possible, cause the other parties to the Internal Restructuring to take, such actions and furnish all such information, in each case, from time to time reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (or any LC Issuing Bank or any Lender through the Administrative Agent) in order to effect the purposes of this Borrower

Assumption Agreement, including furnishing the Administrative Agent with such certifications, financial, or other information, approvals, and documents as required by applicable law or any LC Issuing Bank’s or Lender’s internal processes.

4. Release of Certain Obligations. Upon the effectiveness of the New Borrower Transaction, the Predecessor shall no longer be the Borrower under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor shall it have any rights or obligations as the Borrower thereunder, and the Predecessor shall be released from any and all obligations under the Loan Documents.

5. Ratification. The Successor confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other applicable Loan Documents. The Successor hereby ratifies and agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions contained in the Credit Agreement and the other applicable Loan Documents.
