(a) At December 31, 2004, Entergy Corporation had in place two separate revolving credit facilities, a 5-year credit facility and a 3-year credit facility. The 5-year credit facility, which expires in December 2009, has a borrowing capacity of $500 million, none of which was outstanding at December 31, 2004. The 3-year credit facility, which expires in May 2007, has a borrowing capacity of $965 million, of which $50 million was outstanding at December 31, 2004. These two facilities were terminated in May 2005.

 

(b) In December 2005, Entergy Corporation sold 10 million equity units with a stated amount of $50 each. An equity unit consists of (1) a note, CUSIP 29364GAD5, initially due February 2011 and initially bearing interest at an annual rate of 5.75% and (2) a purchase contract that obligates the holder of the equity unit to purchase for $50 between 0.5705 and 0.7074 shares of Entergy Corporation common stock on or before February 17, 2009. Entergy will pay the holders quarterly contract adjustment payments of 1.875% per year on the stated amount of $50 per equity unit. Under the terms of the purchase contracts, Entergy Corporation will issue between 5,705,000 and 7,074,000 shares of common stock in the settlement of the purchase contracts (subject to adjustment under certain circumstances).

Annual reset in April based on prior calendar year fuel and purchased power costs adjusted for nuclear refueling outages and projected sales plus any under- or over-recovered fuel balance for the prior calendar year.

 

On March 31, 2006, the APSC suspended, pending further investigation, the annual revised Energy Cost Recovery Rider (ECR) rate increase scheduled to take effect the first billing cycle in April. On April 7, 2006 the APSC issued a show cause order on prospective elimination of ECR and requiring a current cost-of-service study by June 8, 2006. EAI has filed for rehearing of the APSC orders, asking that the ECR rider filed in March 2006 be implemented subject to refund, and that the APSC rescind its show cause order. The APSC Staff has filed testimony supporting EAI’s request that the ECR rate be implemented subject to refund. On May 8, 2006, the APSC denied EAI’s requests for rehearing. A procedural schedule in the ECR proceedings has not been set.

(a) NYPA retained the decommissioning trusts and decommissioning liability. NYPA and Entergy executed decommissioning agreements, specifying 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.

DEFINITIONS OF OPERATIONAL MEASURES AND GAAP AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

NUCLEAR OPERATIONAL MEASURES

Net MW in operation    Installed capacity owned or operated by Entergy Nuclear
Average realized price per MWh    As-Reported revenue per MWh generated for all non-utility nuclear operations
Production cost per MWh    Fuel and non-fuel operation and maintenance expenses according to accounting standards that directly relate to the production of electricity per MWh
Generation in GWh    Total number of GWh produced by all non-utility nuclear facilities
Capability factor    The percentage of the maximum energy generation a plant is capable of supplying to the grid, limited only by factors within control of plant management. A high capability factor indicates effective plant programs and practices to minimize unplanned energy losses and to optimize planned outages
Capacity factor    Normalized percentage of the period that the plant generates power. This is a ratio of the energy that was produced over a given period of time relative to energy that would have been produced had the unit operated continuously at its maximum dependable capacity over the period
Refueling outage duration    Number of days lost for scheduled refueling outage during the period

Financial measures defined in the below table include measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), as well as non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP measures are included in this report in order to provide metrics that remove the effect of less routine financial impacts from commonly used financial metrics.

Return on average common equity – operational    12-months trailing operational earnings divided by average common or members’ equity
Net margin – operational    12-months trailing operational earnings divided by 12-months trailing revenue
Total gross liquidity    Sum of cash and cash equivalents and revolver capacity
Net debt to net capital    Gross debt less cash and cash equivalents divided by total capitalization less cash and cash equivalents
