(1) On October 1, 2015, the businesses formerly conducted by Entergy Louisiana, LLC (Old Entergy Louisiana) and Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, LLC (Old Entergy Gulf States Louisiana) were combined into a single public utility (Business Combination).
In order to effect the Business Combination, under the Texas Business
Organizations Code (TXBOC), Old Entergy Louisiana allocated substantially all of its assets to a new subsidiary, Entergy Louisiana Power, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (New Entergy Louisiana), and New Entergy Louisiana assumed
the liabilities of Old Entergy Louisiana, in a transaction regarded as a merger under the TXBOC. In accordance with the terms of the securities covered by this Form, the obligations of Old Entergy Louisiana on the securities covered by this Form were released and discharged. Under the TXBOC, Old Entergy Gulf States Louisiana allocated substantially all of its assets to a new subsidiary (New Entergy Gulf States Louisiana) and New Entergy Gulf States Louisiana assumed the liabilities of Old Entergy
Gulf States Louisiana, in a transaction regarded as a merger under the TXBOC. New Entergy Gulf States Louisiana then merged into New Entergy Louisiana with New Entergy Louisiana surviving the merger. Thereupon, Old Entergy Louisiana changed its name from “Entergy Louisiana, LLC” to “EL Investment Company, LLC” and New Entergy Louisiana changed its name from “Entergy Louisiana Power, LLC” to “Entergy Louisiana, LLC”.
With the completion of the Business Combination, New Entergy Louisiana holds substantially all of the assets, and has assumed the liabilities, of Old Entergy Louisiana and Old Entergy Gulf States Louisiana.
The Business Combination constituted a “succession” pursuant to Rule 12g-3(a) and 15d-5(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act) in which New Entergy Louisiana became the successor of Old Entergy Louisiana. This
Form 15 relates solely to the reporting obligations of Old Entergy Louisiana and does not affect New Entergy Louisiana, which is subject to reporting and other applicable requirements of the Exchange Act as successor issuer to Old Entergy Louisiana.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, EL Investment Company, LLC, has caused this certification/notice to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned duly authorized person.
