  <div style="font-family: sans-serif;"><font style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 14.4px;">The Company uses the asset and liability method in accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized at currently enacted income tax rates, to reflect the tax effect of temporary differences between the financial and tax basis of assets and liabilities as well as operating loss and tax credit&#160;carryforwards. Such temporary differences are the result of provisions in the income tax law that either require or permit certain items to be reported on the income tax return in a different period than they are reported in the financial statements.</font></div>

  <div style="font-family: sans-serif;"><font style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 14.4px;">We use the deferral method of accounting for investment tax credits as allowed by our rate-regulated jurisdictions. Such a method results in the investment tax credit being amortized as a reduction to income tax expense over the estimated useful lives of the underlying property that gave rise to the credit.</font></div>

Borrowings under the Agreement bear interest at the weighted average daily cost of&#160;BHC's&#160;external borrowings as defined under the Agreement, or if there are no external funds outstanding on that date, then the rate will be the daily one-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 1.125%.

Use of the master trust permits the commingling of the trust assets of the pension plans of Entergy Corporation and its Registrant Subsidiaries for investment and administrative purposes. Although assets in the master trust are commingled, the trustee maintains supporting records for the purpose of allocating the trust level equity in net earnings (loss) and the administrative expenses of the investment accounts in the trust to the various participating pension plans in the trust. The fair value of the trust’s assets is determined by the trustee and certain investment managers. The trustee calculates a daily earnings factor, including realized and unrealized gains or losses, collected and accrued income, and administrative expenses, and allocates earnings to each plan in the master trust on a pro rata basis.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#ff0000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%"> </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">Within each pension plan, Entergy Services’ beneficial interest in the plan assets is maintained by the plan's actuary and is updated quarterly.

Employers are to record previously unrecognized gains and losses, prior service costs, and the remaining transition asset or obligation (that resulted from adopting prior pension and other postretirement benefits accounting standards) as comprehensive income and/or regulatory asset reflective of the recovery mechanism for pension and other postretirement benefit costs. Accounting standards also require that changes in the funded status be recorded in other comprehensive income and/or a regulatory asset in the period in which the changes occur. </span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">With regard to pension costs, Entergy Services calculates the expected return on pension plan assets by multiplying the long term expected rate of return on assets by the market-related value (MRV) of plan assets.
