Project) Series 2021 (the “MBFC Bonds”), terminated and discharged (i) the Availability Agreement,

dated as of June 21, 1974, as amended, among the Company and the Affiliate Operating Companies (the “Availability Agreement”); (ii) the Thirty-ninth Assignment of Availability Agreement, Consent and Agreement, dated as of June 15, 2021, among the Company, the MBFC Indenture Trustee, the Mortgage Trustee and the Affiliate Operating Companies (“Thirty-ninth Assignment of Availability Agreement”) securing the MBFC Bonds and the Company’s First Mortgage Bonds, MBFC Series due 2044 (the “Twenty-fourth Series Bonds”) issued under the Mortgage, including Officer’s Certificate No. 2-B-2 dated as of June 8, 2021 (“Officer’s Certificate No. 2-B-2”); (iii) the Forty-first Assignment of Availability Agreement, Consent and Agreement, dated as of March 14, 2023, among the Company, the Mortgage Trustee and the Affiliate Operating Companies (“Forty-first Assignment of Availability Agreement”) securing the Company’s First Mortgage Bonds, 6.00% Series due April 15, 2028 (the “Twenty-sixth Series Bonds”) issued under the Mortgage, including Officer’s Certificate No. 4-B-4, dated as of March 8, 2023 (“Officer’s Certificate No. 4-B-4”); and (iv) the Forty-second Assignment of Availability Agreement, Consent and Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2024, as supplemented by the Confirmation with Respect to Forty-second Assignment of Availability Agreement, Consent and Agreement, dated as of May 30, 2025, among the Company, the Mortgage Trustee and the Affiliate Operating Companies (“Forty-second Assignment of Availability Agreement” and together with the Thirty-ninth Assignment of Availability Agreement and the Forty-first Assignment of Availability Agreement, the “Assignments of Availability Agreement” and each, an “Assignment of Availability Agreement”) securing the Company’s First Mortgage Bonds, 5.30% Series due December 15, 2034 (the “Twenty-seventh Series Bonds” and together with the Twenty-fourth Series Bonds and the Twenty-sixth Series Bonds, the “Bonds”) issued under the Mortgage, including Officer’s Certificate No. 5-B-5, dated as of December 3, 2024 (“Officer’s Certificate No. 5-B-5”).

The Availability Agreement provided assurances that the Company had available adequate cash resources to cover its operating expenses and interest costs and permanent shutdown costs in the event of a shortfall of funds available to the Company from sales of power and energy under the UPSA. Such adequate cash resources were assured under the Availability Agreement by individually obligating the Affiliate Operating Companies to make payments or subordinated advances to the Company in accordance with stated percentages for each Affiliate Operating Company. Since commercial operation of Grand Gulf began, no payments under the Availability Agreement by the Affiliate Operating Companies have ever been required.

The Company, the Mortgage Trustee, the MBFC Indenture Trustee (in the case of the Thirty-ninth Assignment of Availability Agreement) and the Affiliate Operating Companies subsequently entered into each Assignment of Availability Agreement whereby the Company assigned its rights under the Availability Agreement as additional security for the respective series of Bonds and for the MBFC Bonds (in the case of the Thirty-ninth Assignment of Availability Agreement).

Pursuant to the terms of (i) Officer’s Certificate No. 2-B-2 and Section 4.13 of the Trust Indenture, each holder of the MBFC Bonds and the MBFC Indenture Trustee, as holder of the Twenty-fourth Series Bonds, has consented to the termination of the Availability Agreement and the Thirty-ninth Assignment of Availability Agreement without their further consent or action, subject to certain conditions; (ii) Officer’s Certificate No. 4-B-4, each holder of the Twenty-sixth Series Bonds has consented to the termination of the Availability Agreement and the Forty-first Assignment of Availability Agreement without their further consent or action, subject to certain conditions; and (iii) Officer’s Certificate No. 5-B-5, each holder of the Twenty-seventh Series Bonds has consented to the termination of the Availability Agreement and the Forty-second Assignment of Availability Agreement without their further consent or action, subject to certain conditions. All conditions have been satisfied. As a result of the termination of the Availability Agreement and the Assignments of Availability Agreement, neither the Bonds nor the MBFC Bonds is entitled to the security provided by the Availability Agreement and the respective Assignment of Availability Agreement.

Entry into 2025 Availability Agreement and Assignments of 2025 Availability Agreement

Immediately following the above-described termination of the Availability Agreement and the Assignments of Availability Agreement and effective as of October 1, 2025, the Company entered into a new availability agreement (the “2025 Availability Agreement”) between the Company and the 2025 Affiliate Operating Companies. The 2025 Availability Agreement provides assurances that the Company has available adequate cash resources to cover its operating expenses and interest costs and permanent shutdown costs in the event of a shortfall of funds available to the Company from sales of capacity and energy under the 2025 UPSA and from other sources. Such adequate cash resources are assured under the 2025 Availability Agreement by individually obligating the 2025 Affiliate Operating Companies to make payments or subordinated advances to the Company in accordance with the following allocation percentages – Entergy Arkansas, LLC (24.19%), Entergy Mississippi, LLC (56.38%) and Entergy New Orleans, LLC (19.43%). Pursuant to the terms of the 2025 Availability Agreement, so long as at least one 2025 Affiliate Operating Company remains a party to the 2025 Availability Agreement, any other 2025 Affiliate Operating Company may assign all or part of its rights and obligations thereunder to any other 2025 Affiliate Operating Company, and such assigning 2025 Affiliate Operating Company shall be discharged of its obligations under the 2025 Availability Agreement upon the assumption of such obligations by the remaining 2025 Affiliate Operating Company or Companies.

Immediately following the above-described entry into the 2025 Availability Agreement and effective as of October 1, 2025, to provide additional security for the respective series of Bonds, the Company, the 2025 Affiliate Operating Companies and the Mortgage Trustee executed three assignments of the 2025 Availability Agreement, one for the respective benefit of each of the Twenty-fourth Series Bonds (the “First Assignment of Availability Agreement, Consent and Agreement”), the Twenty-sixth Series Bonds (the “Second Assignment of Availability Agreement, Consent and Agreement”) and the Twenty-seventh Series Bonds (together with the First Assignment of Availability Agreement, Consent and Agreement and the Second Assignment of Availability Agreement, Consent and Agreement, the “Assignments of 2025 Availability Agreement”), with all such Assignments of 2025 Availability Agreement having been entered into concurrently. Pursuant to the terms of the Assignments of 2025 Availability Agreement, subject to the delivery of certain documents, any 2025 Affiliate Operating Company may assign to one or more other 2025 Affiliate Operating Companies its obligations and liabilities under the 2025 Availability Agreement and the Assignments of 2025 Availability Agreement.
