base rate revenues within the Company’s RGVSA, nor will the proposed change in rates increase
or decrease the annual aggregate revenues of the Company. Accordingly, the proposed change
in rates does not constitute a “major change” in the tariffed rates for the RGVSA as that term is
defined by Tex. Util. Code Ann. § 104.101, and does not represent a “major change” when
considered against the Company’s total aggregate revenues.
