EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to El Paso Electric Company’s (the “Registrant”) Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-142557) (the “Registration Statement”) is being filed to terminate the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and to deregister all unsold securities reserved for issuance and registered for sale under the El Paso Electric Company 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). On May 29, 2014, the Registrant’s shareholders approved an amended and restated stock-based long-term incentive plan, which amended and restated the Plan in its entirety. As a result, the Registrant is no longer issuing securities under the Plan and all shares of the Registrant’s common stock issuable under the Plan have been issued. The Registrant is filing this Post-Effective Amendment in accordance with the undertakings in the Registration Statement to terminate the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and to remove from registration by means of a post-effective registration statement any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
