**Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers**

On February 23, 2023, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Entergy Corporation (the "Company") elected Gina F. Adams and John H. Black to the Board, effective March 1, 2023. Ms. Adams and Mr. Black were elected to serve until the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting") and will be included among the nominees for election to the Board at that meeting. The Board also determined that Ms. Adams and Mr. Black qualify as independent directors under the New York Stock Exchange rules and the Company's corporate governance guidelines. In connection with the election of Ms. Adams and Mr. Black, the Board increased the size of the Board to 13 members. The Board assigned Ms. Adams to serve on the Corporate Governance Committee and Mr. Black to the Audit Committee and the Nuclear Committee.

Ms. Adams has served as Corporate Vice President, Government and Regulatory Affairs of FedEx Corporation ("FedEx"), a multinational company focused on transportation, e-commerce and business services, since 2001. Ms. Adams is a lawyer and is responsible for shaping and promoting the legislative, regulatory, operational and economic interests of FedEx in the political, regulatory and policy arenas. Prior to joining FedEx in 1992, Ms. Adams served as an attorney for the United States Department of Transportation.

Mr. Black retired in 2021 from Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte"), where he was a lead client service partner overseeing all audit, accounting, tax and advisory services provided to his clients. He served as the Company's lead audit partner from 2011–2015 and during his career served as lead audit partner for other large and complex utility industry clients and fully competitive, customer-driven businesses. Prior to joining Deloitte in 2002, he was an audit partner at Arthur Andersen LLP.

There are no arrangements or understandings between either Ms. Adams or Mr. Black and any other person pursuant to which either was elected as a director of the Company. In connection with their appointments and service on the Board, Ms. Adams and Mr. Black will each 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 through the date of the next Annual Meeting.
