(&#147;ITC&#148;) issued a press release announcing that the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the &#147;FERC&#148;) approved the proposed merger (the &#147;Transaction&#148;) of the electric transmission business of Entergy Corporation (&#147;Entergy&#148;) with a wholly-owned subsidiary of ITC. In addition, the FERC also approved new rate constructs for the acquired transmission assets under ITC ownership. In May, ITC and Entergy received the FERC&#146;s authorization for the utility operating company financings associated with the Transaction. The FERC orders (Docket Nos. EC12-145-000, ER12-2681-000, ER13-782-000 and E513-5-000) can be found on the FERC&#146;s website.</font></p>

ITC&#146;s shareholders previously approved the Transaction and Entergy has received from the Internal Revenue Service a favorable ruling on the tax free nature of the Transaction.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">ITC filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-184073) with the SEC registering the offer and sale of shares of ITC common stock to be issued to Entergy shareholders in connection with the proposed transactions. This registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on February 25, 2013. ITC shareholders are urged to read the prospectus included in the ITC registration statement and any other relevant documents because they contain important information about Mid South TransCo LLC (&#147;TransCo&#148;) and the proposed transactions.&#160; In addition, TransCo will file a registration statement with the SEC registering the offer and sale of TransCo common units to be issued to Entergy shareholders in connection with the proposed transactions.

The registration statements, prospectuses and other documents relating to the proposed transactions (when they are available) can be obtained free of charge from the SEC&#146;s website at www.sec.gov. The documents, when available, can also be obtained free of charge from Entergy upon written request to Entergy Corporation, Investor Relations, P.O.

Other Events
On June 21, 2013, ITC Holdings Corp. ("ITC") issued a press release announcing that the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the "FERC") approved the proposed merger (the "Transaction") of the electric transmission business of Entergy Corporation ("Entergy") with a wholly-owned subsidiary of ITC. In addition, the FERC also approved new rate constructs for the acquired transmission assets under ITC ownership. In May, ITC and Entergy received the FERC's authorization for the utility operating company financings associated with the Transaction. The FERC orders (Docket Nos. EC12-145-000, ER12-2681-000, ER13-782-000 and E513-5-000) can be found on the FERC's website.
The closing of the Transaction is expected to occur in 2013 and is subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including receipt of the necessary approvals of Entergy's retail regulators. ITC's shareholders previously approved the Transaction and Entergy has received from the Internal Revenue Service a favorable ruling on the tax free nature of the Transaction.
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Additional Information and Where to Find It
ITC filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-184073) with the SEC registering the offer and sale of shares of ITC common stock to be issued to Entergy shareholders in connection with the proposed transactions. This registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on February 25, 2013. ITC shareholders are urged to read the prospectus included in the ITC registration statement and any other relevant documents because they contain important information about Mid South TransCo LLC ("TransCo") and the proposed transactions.  In addition, TransCo will file a registration statement with the SEC registering the offer and sale of TransCo common units to be issued to Entergy shareholders in connection with the proposed transactions. Entergy shareholders are urged to read the prospectus included in the ITC registration statement and the prospectus to be included in the TransCo registration statement (when available) and any other relevant documents, because they contain important information about ITC, TransCo and the proposed transactions. The registration statements, prospectuses and other documents relating to the proposed transactions (when they are available) can be obtained free of charge from the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. The documents, when available, can also be obtained free of charge from Entergy upon written request to Entergy Corporation, Investor Relations, P.O. Box 61000, New Orleans, LA 70161 or by calling Entergy's Investor Relations information line at 1-888-ENTERGY (368-3749), or from ITC upon written request to ITC Holdings Corp., Investor Relations, 27175 Energy Way, Novi, MI 48377 or by calling 248-946-3000.
