     Paragraphs  "C"  and  "D" of Item  1,  Section  VII  of  the

restated in their entirety to read as follows:

     "C. Each of the Operating Companies represents that it
         will not issue any security authorized in the matter, if,
         as a consequence of such issuance, the common equity
         component of the capital structure of the applicable
         Operating Company (on a consolidated basis) would
         comprise less than 30% of its total consolidated
         capitalization (based upon the financial statements
         filed with the most recent Quarterly Report on Form
         10-Q or Annual Report on Form 10-K).

      D. Each of the Operating Companies represents that it will
         not issue any senior long-term debt that, if it is rated,
         is not rated investment grade by at least one nationally
         recognized statistical rating agency, except for new debt
         designed to refund, redeem or replace existing debt that,
         if voluntarily refunded, is at a lower effective after-tax
         cost of money, for privately placed debt or for debt
         authorized by the Council of the City of New Orleans or
