Good for Louisiana: A Stronger Electric Grid, Improved Reliability, Lower Energy Costs.

Entergy Louisiana, LLC (ELL) and Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, L.L.C. (EGSL)* propose to separate their transmission businesses and merge them with a subsidiary of ITC Holdings Corp., the nation’s largest independent, transmission-only utility. The transaction is designed to secure a stronger grid, increase reliability and lower energy costs. Here’s how:

Separate Transmission is Stronger Transmission

Transmission is the backbone of Louisiana’s electrical delivery system. Separating Entergy’s existing transmission business from its generation and distribution assets and business, and placing it under ITC operation and ownership, will yield a hardened, more reliable, more efficient grid. That’s not idle speculation; that’s an assurance—ITC has committed to reaching certain performance targets by specific milestones. ITC has a track record of investment in the grid, and of improving the grid’s performance. A better grid benefits Louisiana customers with fewer and shorter outages, reduced congestion and line losses and greater access to lower cost power. Bottom line, customers in Louisiana will see more reliable and lower cost electricity.

Customers’ Rates are Protected

While it’s true that ITC can earn a higher return on invested capital than Entergy—a difference that flows through to customers—under the Entergy-ITC proposal, bill credits will offset these “rate effects” until the benefits of ITC’s ownership are demonstrated to offset such costs. Entergy and ITC will provide $129 million in rate mitigation to Louisiana customers. And, more bill credits are promised to continue until measured benefits offset costs, as determined by an independent third party evaluator. This rate plan protects customers from cost increases while placing the onus on the companies to demonstrate economic and performance improvements.

Building on MISO Membership, Delivered Cost of Energy to Customers in Louisiana Will Decrease

ELL and EGSL joining the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (a regional transmission organization or RTO) is projected to save Louisiana customers up to half-a-billion dollars or more in the first decade alone. The ITC transaction offers even more, though. Because an expert, independent transmission owner like ITC leverages the benefits of an RTO by reducing congestion, adding capacity, and opening access to generation and planning with a super-regional view. All of this contributes to lowering the delivered cost of energy to customers in Louisiana.

Stronger Companies Make Stronger Communities: Jobs, Economic Development and Community Involvement for Louisiana

Every community benefits when strong and capable companies serve its citizens. That’s the case here. Once the transaction is completed, ELL/EGSL will be better able to finance improvements in its generation and distribution system. And ITC is committed to investing hundreds of millions of dollars in transmission improvements that are expected to benefit Louisiana customers. Such investments help to stimulate jobs and economic activity, and will ultimately facilitate efforts to bring new businesses, investment and jobs to the state. Further, ITC will staff local representatives, maintain Louisiana facilities, hire local vendors and invest its philanthropic and community support right here in Louisiana. That creates incremental economic development that will make Louisiana even stronger.

Local Regulators Retain Influence and Oversight

The Louisiana Public Service Commission will continue to have an important role in transmission matters, including the opportunity for the LPSC to influence and shape ITC’s capital planning, and to review information about new investments and construction planned by ITC. So, state influence and oversight will continue under the new business model.

ITC is a financially strong utility, a recognized leader in the industry and a proven corporate citizen. ITC is ready, willing and able to make significant investments in the energy infrastructure of our region—and ITC’s ownership of transmission will enable ELL/EGSL to focus its expertise and investment on generation and distribution. The Entergy-ITC transaction is good for Louisiana, and good for Louisianans. We are advocating strongly for it, and we hope you will, too.

*Entergy New Orleans customers have separate, additional rate mitigation and benefits.

ITC Forward-Looking Information

This document and the exhibits hereto contain certain statements that describe ITC Holdings Corp. (“ITC”) management’s beliefs concerning future business conditions and prospects, growth opportunities and the outlook for ITC’s business, including ITC’s business and the electric transmission industry based upon information currently available. Such statements are “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Wherever possible, ITC has identified these forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipates”, “believes”, “intends”, “estimates”, “expects”, “projects” and similar phrases. These forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions ITC management believes are reasonable. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause ITC’s actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these statements, including, among other things, (a) the risks and uncertainties disclosed in ITC’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly

Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) from time to time and (b) the following transactional factors (in addition to others described elsewhere in this document, in the prospectus included in the registration statement on Form S-4 that was filed by ITC with the SEC in connection with the proposed transactions): (i) risks inherent in the contemplated transaction, including: (A)  failure to obtain regulatory approvals necessary to consummate the transaction or to obtain regulatory approvals on favorable terms; (B) the ability to obtain the required financings; (C) delays in consummating the transaction or the failure to consummate the transactions; and (D) exceeding the expected costs of the transactions; (ii) legislative and regulatory actions, and (iii) conditions of the capital markets during the periods covered by the forward-looking statements.

Because ITC’s forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties, many of which are beyond ITC’s control or are subject to change, actual results could be materially different and any or all of ITC’s forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong. They speak only as of the date made and can be affected by assumptions ITC might make or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many factors mentioned in this document and the exhibits hereto and in ITC’s annual and quarterly reports will be important in determining future results. Consequently, ITC cannot assure you that ITC’s expectations or forecasts expressed in such forward-looking statements will be achieved. Actual future results may vary materially.  Except as required by law, ITC undertakes no obligation to publicly update any of ITC’s forward-looking or other statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

The transaction is subject to certain conditions precedent, including regulatory approvals and the availability of financing. ITC cannot provide any assurance that the proposed transactions related thereto will be completed, nor can it give assurances as to the terms on which such transactions will be consummated.
