Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. On February 21, 2025, Entergy New Orleans, LLC (the “Company”), as borrower, entered into a term loan credit agreement dated as of February 21, 2025 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”). The Credit Agreement provides for term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $80 million (the “Term Loan”) to be available to the Company for a one-time drawing during the period commencing upon closing of the Credit Agreement and ending on March 21, 2025, which Term Loan matures and is payable on March 20, 2026. The Term Loan shall be prepaid under certain circumstances and may be voluntarily prepaid by the Company with a reimbursement of any fees associated with such early payments, as applicable. The Credit Agreement contains certain customary covenants, including restrictions on the Company pledging its assets and on certain asset sales. It also contains a covenant that requires the Company to maintain a consolidated debt ratio of 65% or less of its total capitalization. The Term Loan bears interest at a rate equal to an applicable margin, plus, at the Company’s option, either (x) a base rate determined by reference to the greatest of (a) the federal funds rate plus ½ of 1%, (b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by Bank of America, N.A. as its “prime rate”, (c) the rate of interest per annum equal to the secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (or a successor administrator) (“SOFR”) as determined on such day that would be applicable to a SOFR loan having an interest period of one month, plus 1%, and (d) 1.00%, per annum payable quarterly on the last day of each of March, June, September and December, or (y) an interest rate of SOFR per annum payable on the last day of each interest period of one, three or six months thereafter, as selected by the Company, or such other period of twelve months or less as consented to by the lenders and the Administrative Agent (but with respect to an interest period of more than three months, payable on the date that is every three months from the first day of such interest period), plus a SOFR adjustment for such interest period. The Company will also pay an up-front fee upon closing of the Credit Agreement based on the amount of the Term Loan. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement may be accelerated upon an event of default, which includes non-payment of principal or interest, breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant, cross-default, bankruptcy, material judgments, certain ERISA events, the occurrence of a change of control with respect to the Company where Entergy Corporation (“Entergy”) ceases to own 80% directly or indirectly all of the Company’s common equity, and the occurrence of a change of control with respect to Entergy. The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety be reference to the Credit Agreement filed as Exhibit 4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
