The aggregate market value of the Cleco Corporation voting stock held by non-affiliates was $789,494,234 as of the last business day of the Registrant's most recently completed second fiscal quarter, based on a price of $17.98 per common share, the closing price of Cleco Corporation's common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on such date. Cleco Corporation's Cumulative Preferred Stock is not listed on any national securities exchange, nor are prices for the Cumulative Preferred Stock quoted on any national automated quotation system; therefore, its market value is not readily determinable and is not included in the foregoing amount.
As of February 1, 2005, there were 49,254,122 shares outstanding of Cleco Corporation's Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share. As of February 1, 2005, all of Cleco Power's Membership Interests were owned by Cleco Corporation.
DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE
Portions of Cleco Corporation's definitive Proxy Statement relating to its Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on May 5, 2005, are incorporated by reference into Part III herein.
EXPLANATORY NOTE
This amendment to Cleco Corporation's and Cleco Power's 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, 2005 (the "10-K"), is made to include the following:
Consolidated Financial Statements of Acadia Power Partners, LLC and subsidiary, as required by Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X;

certain exhibits to the 10-K.
The 10-K is a combined Form 10-K filed separately by Cleco Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, Cleco Power LLC. This Form 10-K/A is also filed separately by Cleco Corporation and Cleco Power LLC. Other than Financial Statement Schedule II filed herewith as it relates to Cleco Power LLC, which constitutes an amendment to the 10-K as separately filed by Cleco Power LLC, this Form 10-K/A relates only to and amends only the 10-K as separately filed by Cleco Corporation. This amendment consists solely of the preceding cover page, this explanatory note, the information required by Item 15 of Form 10-K, a signature page, the accountants' consents and certifications required to be filed as exhibits hereto. In accordance with Rule 12b-15 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the complete text of Item 15, as amended, is included herein. However, other than the inclusion of the Consolidated Financial Statements of Acadia Power Partners, LLC and subsidiary, the Financial Statements of Cleco Evangeline LLC, and Financial Statement Schedules I and II, no changes to any financial statements in the 10-K have been made.

Cleco Corporation (Parent Company Only) Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The condensed financial statements represent the financial information required by Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X 5-04 for Cleco Corporation, an exempt public utility holding company under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935. Regulation S-X 5-04 requires the inclusion of parent company only financial statements if the restricted net assets of consolidated subsidiaries exceed 25% of total consolidated net assets as of the last day of its most recent fiscal year. As of December 31, 2004, Cleco Corporation's restricted net assets of consolidated subsidiaries were $221.0 million and exceeded 25% of its total consolidated net assets.
Cleco Corporation's major, first-tier subsidiaries consist of Cleco Power LLC (Cleco Power) and Cleco Midstream Resources LLC (Midstream).
Cleco Power contains the LPSC-jurisdictional generation, transmission, and distribution electric utility operations serving Cleco's traditional retail and wholesale customers. Midstream owns and operates merchant generation stations and invests in joint ventures that own and operate merchant generation stations.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Cleco Corporation on a stand-alone basis as a holding company. Investments in subsidiaries and other investees are stated at cost plus equity in undistributed earnings from the date of acquisition. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with Cleco Corporation's consolidated financial statements.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2003 and 2002 financial statements to conform them to the presentation used in the 2004 financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on Cleco Corporation Parent Company Only (Parent Company Only) net income applicable to common stock or total common shareholders' equity. In these notes, "Cleco" refers to Cleco Corporation and its subsidiaries.
Note 2 - Debt
Cleco Corporation has a three-year revolving credit facility totaling $150.0 million. The commitment fees for this facility are based upon Cleco Corporation's highest unsecured debt ratings and are currently 0.275%. This facility provides for working capital and other needs. If Cleco Power defaults under its revolving credit facility, then Cleco Corporation would be considered in default under the Cleco Corporation credit facility. Off-balance sheet commitments entered into by Cleco with third parties for certain types of transactions between those parties and Cleco's subsidiaries, other than Cleco Power, reduce the amount of credit available to Cleco Corporation under the facility by an amount equal to the stated or determinable amount of the primary obligation. At December 31, 2004, there was no amount drawn on the facility. The $150.0 million at December 31, 2004, was reduced by off-balance sheet commitments of $18.3 million and a $25.0 million restriction on borrowing related to Cleco Corporation's 8.75% Senior Notes, leaving available capacity of $106.7 million. An uncommitted line of credit with a bank in an amount up to $5.0 million also is available to support Cleco Corporation's working capital needs. This line of credit is available to either Cleco Corporation or Cleco Power.
Total indebtedness was as follows:

Note 3 - Dividends Received
Cleco Corporation received $44.7 million and $44.4 million in cash dividends from Cleco Power during the years 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Note 4 - Restatements
In connection with the preparation of its Parent Company Only condensed financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004, Cleco Corporation identified various misclassifications in its previously issued Parent Company Only condensed financial statements. These misclassifications, for which Cleco Corporation has restated its Parent Company Only condensed financial statements as described below, had no impact on Cleco Corporation's previously issued consolidated financial statements, or on the previously reported net income or shareholders' equity of the Parent Company Only condensed financial statements.
Statement of Cash Flows
Certain amounts previously reported in Parent Company Only Condensed Statements of Cash Flows, for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 were restated as follows:
Cash premiums paid on company- and trust-owned life insurance, which resulted in a restatement of $2.4 million and $0.8 million from the "net cash provided by operating activities" section of the Statement of Cash Flows to the "net cash used in investing activities" section for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, previously included as an operating activity should instead have been classified as an investing activity.
Net cash received from Cleco Corporation's ESOP Trust, which resulted in a restatement of $1.3 million and $1.3
