Basically, whatever the QSE is charged or credited due to resource imbalance due to such an instruction will be offset by the OOME payment so that the net effect is always zero. The recommended language changes to section 6.8.2.2 are attached. Manny (See attached file: Sect6Reliant1201.doc) - Sect6Reliant1201.doc
