Item 1. Description of Proposed Transaction
- --------------------------------------------
This Item is hereby supplemented as follows:
At this time, the applicants do not request, and do not foresee a need
to request, authority to increase the capitalization of Data-Track in excess of
that authorized in the 1988 Order. Similarly, the applicants do not request any
expansion of Data-Track's current authority to participate in the System's money
pool pursuant to the Commission's order of December 28, 1995, HCAR 26443, which
order replaced the 1991 Order.
For purposes of this application, the applicants agree that, during
each fiscal year, the total number of accounts Data-Track services for System
members shall exceed the total number of accounts serviced for unaffiliated
customers (the "Limit"). The applicants, however, respectfully request that the
Commission reserve jurisdiction over Data-Track's ability to provide services to
unaffiliated customers in an amount which exceeds the Limit pursuant to the
precedent established by the Commission's Jersey Central Power & Light Company
order of March 18, 1987, HCAR 24348, future Commission precedent or otherwise.
