NOTE 14 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Ameren Companies have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, affiliate transactions in the normal course of business.
These transactions primarily consist of gas and power purchases and sales, services received or rendered, and borrowings and lendings.
Transactions between affiliates are reported as intercompany transactions on their financial statements, but are eliminated in consolidation for Ameren’s financial statements.
Below are the material related party agreements.2007 Illinois Electric Settlement Agreement As part of the 2007 Illinois Electric Settlement Agreement, the Ameren Illinois Utilities, Genco, and AERG agreed to make aggregate contributions of $150 million over four years as part of a comprehensive program to provide $1 billion of funding for rate relief to certain Illinois electric customers, including customers of the Ameren Illinois Utilities.
At December 31, 2009, CIPS, CILCO and IP had receivable balances from Genco for reimbursement of customer rate relief of less than $1 million each.
Also at December 31, 2009, CIPS, CILCO and IP had receivable balances from AERG for reimbursement of customer rate relief of less than $1 million each.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, Genco incurred charges to earnings of $10 million for customer rate relief contributions and program funding reimbursements to the Ameren Illinois Utilities (CIPS – $3 million, CILCO – $2 million, IP – $5 million), and AERG incurred charges to earnings of $5 million (CIPS – $2 million, CILCO – $1 million, and IP – $2 million).
The Ameren Illinois Utilities recorded most of the reimbursements received from Genco and AERG as electric revenue.
An immaterial amount was recorded as miscellaneous revenue.
Electric Power Supply Agreements The following table presents the amount of physical gigawatthour sales under related party electric power supply agreements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007:
## Table 0 ##
(a) Both Genco and AERG have a power supply agreement with Marketing Company whereby Genco and AERG sell and Marketing Company purchases all the capacity and energy available from Genco’s and AERG’s generation fleets.
(b) Marketing Company contracted with CIPS, CILCO, and IP to provide power based on the results of the September 2006 Illinois power procurement auction.
The values in this table reflect the physical sales volumes provided in that agreement.
In December 2006, Genco and AERG entered into two separate power supply agreements (PSA) with Marketing Company, whereby Genco and AERG agreed to sell and Marketing Company agreed to purchase all of the capacity available from Genco’s and AERG’s generation fleets and all of the associated energy.
In March 2008, Genco and AERG entered into an amendment to their respective PSAs with Marketing Company.
Under the amendment, Genco and AERG are liable to Marketing Company in the event of an unplanned outage or derate (reduction in rated capacity) due to sudden, unanticipated failure or accident within the generating plant site of one or more of its generating units.
Genco’s and AERG’s liability in such cases will be for the positive difference, if any, between the market price of capacity or energy Genco and AERG do not deliver and the contract price under the PSA for that capacity or energy.
An unplanned outage or derate that continues for one year or more is an event of default under the PSA.
In the event of Marketing Company’s unexcused failure to receive energy under the PSA, Marketing Company would be required to pay Genco and AERG the positive difference, if any, between the contract price and the price that Genco and AERG, acting in a commercially reasonable manner, actually receives when it resells the unreceived energy, less any reasonable related transmission, ancillary service, or brokerage costs.
In January 2010, Genco and AERG entered into an amendment to their respective PSAs with Marketing Company primarily because of the EEI ownership transfer to Genco.
Both of the PSAs will continue through December 31, 2022, and from year to year thereafter unless either party elects to terminate the agreement by providing the other party with no less than six months advance written notice.
In accordance with a January 2006 ICC order, an auction was held in September 2006 to procure power for CIPS, CILCO and IP beginning January 1, 2007.
Through the auction, Marketing Company contracted with CIPS, CILCO and IP to provide power for residential and small commercial customers (less than one megawatt of demand) as follows:

Capacity Supply Agreements To replace the power supply contracts that expired on May 31, 2008, the Ameren Illinois Utilities used RFP processes in early 2008, pursuant to the 2007 Illinois Electric Settlement Agreement, to contract for the necessary capacity requirements for the period from June 1, 2008,
ITEM 6.
SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.
## Table 2 ##
Entergy New Orleans, Inc.  Management's Financial Discussion and Analysis 340 2007 Compared to 2006 Net revenue consists of operating revenues net of: 1) fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale, 2) purchased power expenses, and 3) other regulatory charges.
Following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing 2007 to 2006.
## Table 3 ##
The fuel recovery variance is due to the inclusion of Grand Gulf costs in fuel recoveries effective July 1, 2006.
In June 2006, the City Council approved the recovery of Grand Gulf costs through the fuel adjustment clause, without a corresponding change in base rates (a significant portion of Grand Gulf costs was previously recovered through base rates).
The volume/weather variance is due to an increase in electricity usage in the service territory in 2007 compared to the same period in 2006.
The first quarter 2006 was affected by customer losses following Hurricane Katrina.
Entergy New Orleans estimates that approximately 132,000 electric customers and 86,000 gas customers have returned and are taking service as of December 31, 2007, compared to approximately 95,000 electric customers and 65,000 gas customers as of December 31, 2006.
Billed retail electricity usage increased a total of 540 GWh compared to the same period in 2006, an increase of 14%.
The rider revenue variance is due primarily to a storm reserve rider effective March 2007 as a result of the City Council's approval of a settlement agreement in October 2006.
The approved storm reserve has been set to collect $75 million over a ten-year period through the rider and the funds will be held in a restricted escrow account.
The settlement agreement is discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements.
The net wholesale revenue variance is due to more energy available for resale in 2006 due to the decrease in retail usage caused by customer losses following Hurricane Katrina.
In addition, 2006 revenue includes the sales into the wholesale market of Entergy New Orleans' share of the output of Grand Gulf, pursuant to City Council approval of measures proposed by Entergy New Orleans to address the reduction in Entergy New Orleans' retail customer usage caused by Hurricane Katrina and to provide revenue support for the costs of Entergy New Orleans' share of Grand Gulf.
Other Income Statement Variances 2008 Compared to 2007 Other operation and maintenance expenses decreased primarily due to: x a provision for storm-related bad debts of $11 million recorded in 2007; x a decrease of $6.2 million in legal and professional fees; x a decrease of $3.4 million in employee benefit expenses; and x a decrease of $1.9 million in gas operations spending due to higher labor and material costs for reliability work in 2007.
