l' Depar tment of Justice and the Atomic Energy Commission, Gulf States, by letter dated March 20, 1974, entered into an agreement l

to of f er certain utilities an opportunity to participate in the River Bend station. This agreement was part of the so-called

" River Bend Commitments" made by Gulf States. CAJUN eventually became a part owner of the River Bend station. In order to obtain financing for its share of River -Bend, CAJUN was required by the Rural Electrification Administration to enter into an agreement with Gulf States whereby CAJUN would own a portion of the transmission f acilities needed to deliver power and energy to CAJUN's members and others (* CAJUN /GSU integrated transmission system"). This agreement became embodied in Service Schedule CTOC.

Service Schedule CTOC is a transmission equalization agreement, and was executed by CAJUN and Gulf States on December 17, 1980. An earlier revision of Service Schedule CTOC was executed by CAJUN and Gulf States on July 29, 1980. Service Schedule CTOC is a part of the CAJUN / Gulf States Power Interconnection Ag reement. Service Schedule CTOC is filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission as a part of Gulf States' FERC Rate Schedule No. 128.
