Such transactions were subsequently authorized by Amendment No. 6 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-51, issued on December 11, 1986. By letter dated December 5, 1986 to the Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Mudge Rose Guthrie Alexander & Ferdon, on behalf of APS, identified certain prospective Equity Investors who were considering participation'n such transactions. One of such Equity Investors was stated to be The Chase Manhattan Corporation, or "an affiliate thereof".

As previously reported to the Commission, one transaction was subsequently consummated on December 19, 1986, pursuant to a Participation Agreement, dated as of December 15, 1986 (the "Participation Agreement" ). The Equity Investor participating in such transaction was Chase Manhattan Realty Leasing Corporation

Also, it should be noted that the transferee falls within the description of the Equity Investor contained in the above-referenced letter of December 5, 1986, that is, the transferee is "an affiliate" of The Chase Manhattan Corporation. The First National Bank of Boston will remain the Owner Trustee for the transaction and the terms of the Facility Lease will not be affected by the transfer. Copies of all documen-tation relating to the above described transfer will be filed with the Commission in due course upon receipt thereof by APS.
