</div>
<div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     Entergy’s reportable segments as of December 31, 2010 are Utility and Entergy Wholesale
Commodities. Utility includes the generation, transmission, distribution, and sale of electric
power in portions of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, and natural gas utility service
in portions of Louisiana. Entergy Wholesale Commodities includes the ownership and operation of
six nuclear power plants located in the northern United States and the sale of the electric power
produced by those plants to wholesale customers. Entergy Wholesale Commodities also includes the
ownership of interests in non-nuclear power plants that sell the electric power produced by those
plants to wholesale customers. “All Other” includes the parent company, Entergy Corporation, and
other business activity, including the earnings on the proceeds of sales of previously-owned
businesses.

<div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     In the fourth quarter 2010, Entergy finished integrating its former Non-Utility Nuclear
segment and its non-nuclear wholesale asset business into the new Entergy Wholesale Commodities
business in an internal reorganization. The 2009 and 2008 information in the tables below has been
restated to reflect the change in reportable segments.

the Utility segment.

<div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     On April 5, 2010, Entergy announced that, effective immediately, it planned to unwind the
business infrastructure associated with its proposed plan to spin-off its non-utility nuclear
business. As a result of the plan to unwind the business infrastructure, Entergy recorded expenses
in the Entergy Wholesale Commodities segment. Other operating and maintenance expense includes the
write-off of $64 million of capital costs, primarily for software that will not be utilized.
Interest charges include the write-off of $39 million of debt financing costs, primarily incurred
for the $1.2 billion credit facility related to the planned spin-off of Entergy’s non-utility
nuclear business that will not be used. Approximately $16 million of other costs were incurred in
2010 in connection with unwinding the planned non-utility nuclear spin-off transaction.

long-lived assets located outside of the United States.
