Affected Operating Day	June 10, 2011

Because the February through May 2011 EILS Contract Period obligation was exhausted on February 3, 2011, at 10:00 CPT, this EILS Contract Period will be settled according to two periods. Doing so ensures that the EILS charges are assessed using only the Load Ratio Share data relative to the periods during which the service could actually be provided. The two periods are as follows:

1)    February 1 – 10:00 CPT on February 3, 2011

2)    April 1 – May 31, 2011.

Pursuant to Protocols Section 6.6.11.2(1), “For the first settlement of the EILS Contract Period as described in item (1) of Section 9.14.5, Settlement of Emergency Interruptible Load Service (EILS), LRS will be calculated using the final Load for each Operating Day in the EILS Contract Period. Final Load will be calculated according to the timing specified in item (1) of Section 9.5.5, RTM Final Statement.”
