previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") that Entergy International Ltd. LLC ("EIL")

               New Orleans, Louisiana 70161

     EIL, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Entergy, was
organized for purposes of acquiring and holding Entergy's
interests in FUCOs.  EIL currently holds an indirect interest in
the following FUCOs:

                                        (a)   CitiPower Limited
                         ("CitiPower"), a public utility engaged
                         in the distribution of electricity in
                         the State of Victoria, Australia.
                         Entergy owns, indirectly through EIL and
                         other FUCO subsidiaries, 100% of the
                         voting securities of CitiPower.
                         CitiPower's electric distribution
                         network comprises sub-transmission (66
                         kv and below) and distribution assets,
                         including approximately 37 zone
                         substations and 4,321 transformer
                         installations.  The network is
                         predominantly an overhead, wooden poled
                         distribution system comprising
                         approximately 2,745 kilometers (kms) of
                         high and low voltage overhead lines and
                         1,864 kms of high and low voltage
                         underground cables.  CitiPower's service
                         territory covers approximately 157 total
                         square kms of the suburban and
                         metropolitan Melbourne areas.  This area
                         includes the municipalities of St.
                         Kidda, Toorak, Camberwell, Balwyn,
                         Brunswick, Thornbury and the Port of
                         Melbourne.  CitiPower serves
                         approximately 232,800 residential,
                         commercial and industrial customers.

                                        (b)   London Electricity
                         plc ("London Electricity"), a "regional
                         electric company" principally engaged in
                         the business of generating, purchasing
                         and selling electricity to approximately
                         2 million retail customers in a service
                         territory covering the greater
                         metropolitan area of London, England.
                         Entergy owns, indirectly through EIL and
                         other FUCO subsidiaries, 100% of the
                         voting securities of London Electricity.
                         The principal assets of London
                         Electricity consist of electric
                         distribution facilities.  London
                         Electricity also owns less that 1% of
                         the capital shares of National Grid
                         Holdings plc ("National Grid") which,
                         through a subsidiary, owns and manages
                         the national electric transmission
                         system in England and Wales.  London
                         Electricity purchases substantially all
                         of its electricity requirements from
                         National Grid which, in turn, purchases
                         electricity from a variety of sources.
                         In addition, London Electricity has the
                         following direct or indirect ownership
                         interests in electric generating
                         facilities:  a 13.5% ownership interest
                         in Barking Power Ltd., which owns a
                         1,000 MW gas-fired power plant located
                         in East London, England; and a 50%
                         ownership interest in Thames Valley
                         Power Ltd., which owns a 14 MW gas-fired
                         turbine located at Heathrow Airport.

     In addition to the foregoing existing ownership interests in
FUCOs, EIL also may from time to time acquire and hold, on behalf
of Entergy, interests in additional FUCOs.  EIL undertakes to
file a further amendment to this Notification in the event that
it acquires any securities or an interest in the business of
another FUCO.

     Other than Entergy, no person holds a 5% or more voting
interest in EIL.
