On October 31, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Entergy Corporation (the Company”) elected Admiral James F. Caldwell, Jr., U.S. Navy (retired) to the Board, effective November 1, 2025, to serve until the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). The Board also determined that Admiral Caldwell qualifies as an independent director under the New York Stock Exchange rules and the Company’s corporate governance guidelines. In connection with the election of Admiral Caldwell, the size of the Board was increased to 12 members. Admiral Caldwell will serve on the Nuclear and Operations Oversight and Talent and Compensation Committees.

Admiral Caldwell, 66, retired from the U.S. Navy effective January 2024 after a long and distinguished career, most recently serving as Director of the Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program from August 2015 until his retirement. During his four-decade career with the U.S. Navy, he served in numerous other roles of significant responsibility, including Director, U.S. Navy Staff in 2015, Inspector General from 2013 to 2015 and Commander Submarine Force, U.S. Pacific Fleet from 2010 to 2013, and was recognized with the Distinguished Service Medal as well as several other medals and awards.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Admiral Caldwell and any other person pursuant to which he was elected as a director of the Company. In connection with his appointment and service on the Board, Admiral Caldwell will be entitled to receive the same compensation as all other non-employee directors of the Company, including receiving a pro rata portion of such compensation for the period from the effective date of his election through the date of the Annual Meeting.
