CompensationArrangements with Directors and Named Executive Officers

Exhibit 10.1.30

Following is a description of compensatory arrangements with directors and base salaries for named executive officers, effective as of January 1, 2010.

Directors receive an annual retainer of $90,000 ($55,000 of which is paid through the Long-Term Incentive Plan in common stock or, at the election of the director, Director Deferred Share Units) for service as directors of Great Plains Energy and, as applicable, its public utility subsidiaries.  The lead director receives an additional annual retainer of $20,000, and the chairs of the Board’s Audit, Compensation and Development, and Governance Committees receive an additional annual retainer of $10,000, $5,000 and $5,000, respectively.  Attendance fees of $1,500 for each Board meeting and $1,500 for each committee and other meeting attended are also paid.  Directors may defer the receipt of all or part of the cash retainers and meeting fees.

The Company offers life and medical insurance coverage for our non-employee directors who were first elected prior to 2007.  The total premium paid by the Company for this coverage in 2009 was $44,775.  The Company pays or reimburses directors for travel, lodging and related expenses they incur in attending Board and committee meetings.  The Company paid in certain years prior to 2009, and may pay in future years, the expenses incurred by directors’ spouses in accompanying the directors to one Board meeting a year.  The Company also match on a two-for-one basis up to $5,000 per year (which would result in a $10,000 Company match) of charitable donations made by a director to 501(c)(3) organizations that meet the Company’s strategic giving priorities and are located in its generation and service communities.

On February 9, 2010, the independent members of the Great Plains Energy Board of Directors, upon recommendations of its Compensation and Development Committee, approved the following annual base compensation for 2010 of the principal executive officer, principal financial officer and certain other executive officers of Great Plains Energy named in its 2009 proxy statement for services rendered in all capacities to Great Plains Energy and its subsidiaries:
