Item 2.03

Great Plains Energy borrowed the amount loaned to KCP&L under its existing Credit Agreement dated as of May 11, 2006, with Bank of America, N.A., JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., BMP Paribas, The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Limited, Chicago Branch, Wachovia Bank N.A., The Bank of New York, Keybank National Association, The Bank of Nova Scotia, UMB Bank, N.A., and Commerce Bank, N.A., which was filed as Exhibit 10.1.a to the Registrants’ combined Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. A description of the Credit Agreement is contained in Item 1.01 of the Registrants’ combined Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 9, 2006 and filed May 11, 2006, which description is incorporated herein by reference.

This intercompany loan is payable on demand, and bears interest at the same interest rate as Great Plains Energy’s borrowings under the Credit Agreement, as the interest rate may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement.
