Quick Review: The Formula
• Gross Revenue Requirement (GRR) includes:• Projected Transmission Plant In-Service• Projected Transmission O&M• Projected Transmission Depreciation Expense• Taxes• Return
• Net Revenue Requirement adjusts the GRR for:• Revenue Credits received for Point-to-Point Transmission
Service• “Rent” received (i.e. pole attachments)• True-Up for prior year’s difference between actual and
projected, including interest

Quick Review: The Past
• 2009 was the first ATRR that included the forward-looking, revised formula
• History of true-up adjustments:• -$17.8 M was applied in the 2011 ATRR, for 2009 business• $4.5 M was applied in the 2012 ATRR, for 2010 business• -$9.8 M will be applied in the 2013 ATRR, for 2011 business
• Key aspect of true-up amounts: O&M• The TFR calculates a projected O&M based on the
percentage increase in Transmission Plant times the actual O&M from the previous actual year
• This function of projecting O&M is part of the FERC-approved TFR
