II
By this filing, Marin, hereby requests authority to establish its
current Zone of Freedom Rates (Hereinafter referred to as ZORF) as its
Base Rates and to establish a New ZORF respectfully shows.
III
This Application is based upon the following facts and circumstances.
This is the third Application filed on behalf of Marin under the Zone of
Rate Freedom program On April 24, 1995, Under the authority contained in
Section 452.2, Marin filed Application No. 95-04-049 requesting to
establish a Zone of Rate Freedom, The Commission granted that
Application on June 21, 1995 in Decision No. 95-06-042 and Marin filed
Application No. 02-03-037 requesting to establish it's ZORF as it's new
Base Rate and establish a new ZORF, The Commission granted that
Application on June 05, 2003 in Decision No. 03-06-014 and over the
years Marin exercised the authorities contained in the newly established
ZORF of five dollars above or below it's Base Rates. However, the
last application of the ZORF contained in Decision No. 03-06-014 shows
that Marin has exercised the entire ZORF on certain fares.
IV
An examination of the comparative Profit and Loss Statement (See
Exhibit "An) will show in the year 2006, Marin enjoyed revenue from
Airporter operations of $5,797,779. 2006 expenses totaled
$5,816,128 providing a negative pretax income of ($18,349}
producing an operating ratio of 101 in the year 2007, Marin
enjoyed revenue from Airporter operations of $6,328,038. 2007
expenses totaled $6,149,931 providing pretax income of
$178,107, producing an operating ratio of 97%, in the first six
months of 2008 Marin enjoyed revenue from Airporter operations of
$3,335,382. The first six months of 2008 show expenses totaled
$3,260,114 providing pretax income of $75,268 See Exhibit "B".
The reason for the increased revenue 2006 vis-a-viS 2007 was that due to
spikes in consumer gasoline prices, many travelers are opting to use
public transport to get to the airport, how lon~ will that trend continue
is unknown. - - ~
Faced with the losses of 2006 and slim profit of 2007 this carrier
embarked upon cost cutting measures such as selling excess equipment,
reduction in staff, postponement of purchases of new equipment. On
January 1, 1997, Marin established an Employee Stock Ownership Trust
(ESOT) covering substantially all full-time employees meeting age and
length of service requirements. The plan is a qualified Employee Stock
Ownership P1:ein (ESOP). To "date "ove'r the life 'of the plan 648.843 'shares
of stock ESOT. These cost savings have helped the carrier to continue
operations. However, employees continue to expect health and welfare
programs, the cost of which cOhtinue to increase dramatically and
Marin's fleet of buses continue to age the newest being manufactured
in the year 2001, replacement costs now exceed $400,000 per vehicle.
2
In view of the current financial crlS1S it is unclear what levels of
commercial credit will be available in the near future, tires, parts,
fuel and maintenance costs continue to increase; this carrier clearly
is in dire need of rate relief. Exhibit "E>>, attached hereto and by
reference made a part hereof, shows various economic tables, such as
the u. S. Department of Labor Producers Price Indices, (PPI) and the
Current Consumer Price Indices, (CPI) for All Items, San Francisco
Bay Area, Currently, both of which show increases. In the period 2003-
2007 The CPI shows an increase of 19.65 points and the PPI shows an
increase of shows an increase 7.30%. At the present time the economy
is in recession, in view of the current financial crisis it is
unknown if these pressures will worsen, if they do inflation will
follow and escalate to higher levels.
Also included the Department of Energy, Average Cost of Diesel Fuel
for the last 52 weeks. While the Commission previously did authorize
Fuel Surcharge Program, that authori ty has been cancelled.
While the cost of fuel has recently spiked to levels in excess of
$4.00 per gallon since mid March through September 2008 that cost is
well above the $2.50 pe~ gallon that was in effect in January 2007.
The carrier operates on half-hour schedules between Marin County and
San Francisco Airport. It does not want to reduce operations nor
its schedules
To deny granting this request will result in a diseconomy to the
passengers of Marin in that due to reduced schedules, the former
Marin passengers may be compelled to seek other means to ride to and
from the San- Francisco Airport. Also, to decline this request will
result in an unnecessary burden on the environment, as former bus-riding
patrons will certainly add more vehicles to the already crowded Highway
101 corridor not to mention air pollution in that more unburned carbon
fuels will be released into the atmosphere.
Marih is the primary Marin County airport ground transportation
operator and it must be allowed to meet the needs of its bus-riding
patrons and the only way it can do that is maintain profitable
operations.

DECEMBER 31, 2007 and 2006
Note 1 - Organization of Business
Marin Airporter, the Company, is engaged in the transportation of passengers to and from a
local airport 'and in providing bus charter and tour services. Generally 70% to 75% of the
company's revenues are derived from transportation to and from San Francisco International
Airport.
The Company was incorporated in California on September 24, 1975 and is regulated by the
Public Utilities Commission. The Company is closely held by an officer and a director of the
Company, together with an employee stock ownership trust described in Note 10.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost. For book purposes the
Company depreciates its fixed assets using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the related assets, ranging from two to forty years. Office furniture and fixtures and
transportation equipment lives are three to eight years. Maintenance equipment lives are three
to five years. Leasehold improvements and bus terminal lives are two to forty years.
Accelerated methods are used for income tax purposes for selected fixed assets where it is
allowed.
Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When
assets are disposed of, the costs and related depreciation are removed from the accounts and
any gain or loss on disposal is included in other income ( expense).
Spare parts and vehicle supplies - Such items are expensed when purchased. The total value of
the items on hand is not material and does not fluctuate significantly from one period to the
next.
Income taxes - The Company reports income taxes in accordance with SF AS No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires an asset and liability approach in accounting
for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from the differences
between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the financial
statements. Deferred tax amounts are determined by using the tax rates expected to be in effect
when the taxes will actually be paid or refunds received, as provided under currently enacted
tax law. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to
the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable for the period plus
or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Cash and cash equivalents - Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with
original maturities of three months or less. Cash and .cash equivalents as of December 31,
2007 and 2006 consisted of the following deposits with fmancial institutions:
Money market mutual funds
Cash deposits with banks

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2007 and 2006
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Trade Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable are considered to be fully collectible at
December 31, 2007; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts has been set up. If any
amounts become uncollectible, they will be charged to operations when that determination is
made.
Amortization - Loan fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the loan.
Advertising - The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising
expenses for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were $10,764 and $21,001,
respectively.
Comprehensive Income - The Corporation accounts for comprehensive income in accordance
with SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which requires comprehensive
income and its components to be reported when, a company has items of comprehensive
income. Comprehensive income includes net income plus other comprehensive income (Le.
certain revenues, expenses, gains and losses reported as separate components of stockholders'
equity rather than in net income).
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Note 3 - Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that subject the Company to potential concentrations of credit risk
consist principally of temporary cash investments. The Company has concentrated its risk with
regard to cash by placing most of its temporary cash investments in one financial institution.
Substantially all deposits exceed existing federal deposit insurance coverage. Cash and cash
equivalents are deposited with financial institutions that management believes are credit
worthy.
Note 4 - Marketable Securities
The Company has investments in marketable securities that are held for an indefinite period
and are deemed available-for-sale securities. Securities categorized as available-for-sale are
stated at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred taxes, reported in the
stockholders' equity section of its balance sheets as "accumulated other comprehensive
income" in compliance with the provisions of SF AS No. 115 "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities".

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2007 and 2006
Note 5 - Paid up Life Insurance
The Company maintains split dollar insurance policies on two individuals. Under the terms
of the contract, upon the death of an insured or other termination of a policy, the Company
will be reimbursed from the proceeds of the policy for the premiums paid. The total
premiums paid are $ 1 56,572 which is included in other assets in the accompanying balance
sheets.
Note 6 - Membership in Insurance Cooperative
In August 2004 Marin Airporter made a $36,000 redeemable stock investment in a closely
held cooperative insurance company consisting of approximately 50 members. This company
is acting as a reinsurer in the commercial insurance program underwritten for participating
subscribers. The program covers the risks of general liability, auto liability and workers'
compensation.
Approximately 37% of the premiums paid by Marin Airporter to this insurance company are
set aside in a fund (Fund A) to cover claims of less than $100,000 per incident against Marin
Airporter. Approximately 8% of Marin Airporter's premium, as well as a similar percentage
of the other members' premiums, are placed in a common fund to cover claims from $100,000
to $300,000 against all members. The remaining 55% of all subscribers' premiums are used to
purchase reinsurance to cover any claims exceeding $300,000 up to $5,000,000 and to cover
fixed costs.
If Fund A is not exhausted by Marin Airporter claims (of under $100,000 per incident), the
balance in this fund (less certain fixed expenses) for each policy year will be returned in the
form of a dividend at the close of the insurance period ending no earlier than three years after
the end of the policy year. If Marin Airporter claims exceed the amount in Fund A for any
policy year, Marin Airporter could be assessed an additional premium not to exceed the
amount of premium originally allocated to Fund A for that policy year ($ 1 40,514 for the
2005/2006 policy year, $121,005 for the 2006/2007 policy year, and $108,497 for the
2007/2008 policy year). The Company is required to deposit two thirds (2/3) of these
premiums with the cooperative. Accordingly, the 2007 and 2006 Company's balance sheets
include deposits of $246,677 and $206,510, respectively.
While the Company's Fund A loss experience since inception of the company's participation
was less than the premiums allocated to this fund, there is insufficient information to estimate
the potential future reimbursement or additional premium obligation (if any). Accordingly, no
asset or liability has been recorded on these financial statements for such items.

Note 8 - Income Taxes
The current provision for income taxes is based on earnings reported for income tax purposes.
A deferred income tax asset or liability is determined by applying currently enacted tax laws
and rates to the expected reversal of the cumulative temporary differences between carrying
value of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. Deferred
income tax expense or benefit is measured by the change in the deferred income tax asset or
liability during the year. Deferred tax liabilities arise primarily from the recognition of
unrealized gains in marketable securities available for sale and the cumulative excess of
depreciation for federal tax purposes over the amount for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred tax assets arise from temporary differences in the deduction of accrued vacation
payroll costs, the federal deduction of California franchise tax, and the excess of depreciation
for financial reporting purposes over the amount for California franchise tax purposes.
The following schedule presents deferred tax assets and liabilities that are presented as net
deferred tax liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet:

Note 10 - Employee Stock Ownership Trust
Effective January 1, 1997, the Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Trust
(ESOT) covering substantially all full-time employees meeting age and length of service
requirements. The Plan is a qualified Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) under Section
401(a) of the Internal, Revenue Code. The Plan does not cover any employee whose
employment is covered by a collective bargaining agreement in which retirement benefits were
the subject of good faith bargaining, unless the agreement provides for participation in this
Plan. The Plan was adopted as an amendment and restatement of the Company's Profit
Sharing Plan, which was originally effective as of January 1, 1987. The assets under the Profit
Sharing Plan were transferred to the ESOP and maintained as a separate account. There have
been no added contributions to the Profit Sharing Plan since inception of the ESOP. All
employees who were eligible to participate in the Company's Profit Sharing Plan on the
adoption date of this Plan were automatically eligible to participate in this Plan as of the
effective date.
The purpose of the Plan is to enable participating employees to acquire beneficial stock
ownership in the Company without personal cash outlay. As stated in the ESOT agreement,
the Company stock account of each participant in the ESOP will be credited, as of each
anniversary date, with the participants' allocated shares of the Company stock purchased and
paid for by the ESOT or contributed in kind by the Company.
At the inception of the ESOP plan in 1997, the shareholders of the Company sold 262.2 shares
of capital stock to the ESOT for $1,260,000, evidenced by a promissory note between the
Company and the ESOT. The final payment on principal was made by the ESOT in 2002.
On July 31, 2002, the shareholders of the Company sold an additional 161.487 shares of
capital stock \ to the ESOT for $700,000, evidenced by a promissory note between the
Company and the ESOT. The note had an interest rate of 5.5% and required annual principal
payments of $46,667 or more until the note was fully paid. The final payment on principal of
$150,000 was made by the ESOT in 2006.
On June 29, 2007, a shareholder of the Company sold an additional 225.15649 shares of
capital stock to the ESOT for $998,529. To help finance this purchase, the ESOT borrowed
$948,529 from the Company under a note requiring 10 annual payments of at least $94,853
plus interest 6.0% per year. The ESOT typically makes payments equal to the Company's
contribution each year. The ESOT has elected to use the "Special Rule" as described in the
plan document to compute the amount of shares released each year. Consistent with generally
acc~pted accounting principals, the Company does not record interest income related to this
not';. The Company recorded a principal payment of$250,000 from the ESOT on this note for
2QJ7.

Under the terms of the Plan, the Company may make contributions to the ESOP at the
discretion of the Board of Directors up to the maximum allowable for tax purposes each year.
The Plan Trust may in turn use the contributions to repay the share acquisition loans, invest in
the stock of the Company or make other investments (Le., saving accounts, certificates of
deposit, etc.) The trustees of the ESOT chose to apply all of the annual contributions since
inception first to repayment of the share acquisition loans in order to retire the debt as soon as
possible.
\
The Company authorized ESOP contributions of $250,100 and $200,000 for 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The difference between the cost of the shares acquired from the shareholders and
the fair market value at the time those collateralized shares are released is an adjustment that
either increases or decreases the ESOP contribution ~xpense. The Company adopted the
option of using the prior year-end appraisal for determination of fair market value, which was
$4,435 per share and $4,333 per share for 2007 and 2006 transactions, respectively. The result
was a book expense of $250,100 and' $199,951 for 2007 and 2006, respectively. This
differential between the cost and the fair market value of the shares released is also recorded
as an adjustment to retained earnings as follows:

Note 11 - Related Party Transactions
The Company entered into a lease agreement in November 1994 for property owned by two of
the shareholders of the Company (see Note 9). Rental expense of$153,145 and $108,287 was
paid on this lease in 2007 and 2006, respectively.
In 1995, the Company made a loan to the principal shareholders of the Company evidenced by
a promissory note in the amount of $374,000 and secured by a second deed of trust on the
above-mentioned property. The note bore interest at the rate of 5.5% through February 1,
2002, when it was renewed for another three years at the rate of 5.2% per annum. In March
2003, the terms were renegotiated with a rate of 3.2% and full amortization with a due date of
June 1, 2008. The monthly payments remained at $3,362 through April 1, 2005 at which time
one of the shareholders paid off one-half of the loan. The terms on the remaining half were
renegotiated to 3.04%, payable in monthly installments of $1,681 until April 1, 2008 when the
balance is due in full. The outstanding balance of this loan is $9,946 as of December 31,
2007.
Note 12 -Redeemed ESOP Shares
As permitted by the ESOT, the Company has elected to repurchase shares of Company stock
from retiring employees holding vested ESOP shares (Note 10). These repurchased shares are
available to be contributed to the ESOT in future years, subject to tax rule limitations. Shares
are repurchased at fair market value up to a maximum of $10,000 per person based on the
share value determined by the prior year-end appraisal. If a retiree has been allocated shares
valued at more than $10,000, the excess remains in the ESOT for five years and then is paid
out in installments over the subsequent five years to the retiree.
The following schedule summarizes repurchases as of December 31 :

Note 12 - Membership in Insurance Cooperative
In August 2004 Marin Airporter made a $36,000 redeemable stock investment in a
closely held cooperative insurance company consisting of approximately 40 members.
This company is acting as a reinsurer in the commercial insurance program
underwritten for participating subscribers. The program covers the risks of general
liability, auto liability and workers' compensation.
Approximately 38% of the premiums paid by Marin Airporter to this insurance
company are set-aside in a fund (Fund A) to cover claims of less than $100,000 p~r
incident against Marin Airporter. Approximately 10% of Marin Airporter;s premium,
as well as a similar percentage of the other members' premiums, are placed in a
common fund to cover claims from $100,000 to $300,000 against all members. The
remaining 52% of all subscribers' premiums are used to purchase reinsurance to cover
any claims exceeding $300,000 up to $5,000,000 and to cover fixed costs.
If Fund A is not exhausted by Marin Airporter claims (of under $100,000 per incident),
the balance in this fund (less certain fixed expenses) for each policy year will be
returned in th~ form of a dividend at the close of the insurance period ending no earlier
than three years after the end of the policy year. If Marin Airporter claims exceed the
amount in Fund A for any policy year, Marin Airporter could be assessed an additional
premium not to exceed the amount of premium originally allocated to Fund A for that
policy year ($100,4 73 for the policy year from 2/1/08 to 1/31/09).
Note 13 - Subsequent Event
The Company will repurchase 23.54061 shares of Company stock during the remainder
of 2008 from employees who retired prior to December 31, 2007 or those employees
who chose the div~rsification option after age 55 and being a member of the plan fOT at
least 10 years and holding vested ESOP shares (see Notes 9 & 11). The fmal valuation,
based on the fair market value of Company shares at December 31, 2007 will be
$105,359.

Note 1 - Organization of Business:
Marin Airporter, The Company, is engaged in the transportation of passengers to and
from local airports, providing bus charter and tour services as well as local contract
shuttle services.
The Company was incorporated in California on September 24, 1975 and is regulated
by the Public Utilities Commission. The Company is closely held by an officer and an
employee stock ownership trust described in Note 9.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Prooerty and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost. For book
purposes the Company depreciates its fIXed assets using the straight-line method over
the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from two to forty years. Office
furniture and fixtures and transportation equipment lives are three to eight years.
Maintenance equipment lives are three to five years. Leasehold improvements and bus
terminal lives are two to forty years. Accelerated methods are used for income tax
purposes for all fIXed assets where it is allowed.
Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
When assets are disposed of, the costs and related depreciation are removed from the
accounts and any gain or loss on disposal is included in other income (expense).
Spare parts and auto supplies - Such items are expensed when purchased. The total
value of the items on hand is not material and does not fluctuate significantly from one
period to the Re~t.
Income taxes - The Company reports income taxes in accordance with SF AS No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires an asset and liability approach in
accounting for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities arise form
the differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in
the fmancial statements. Deferred tax amounts are determined by using the tax rates
expected to be in effect when the taxes will actually be paid or refunds received, as
provided under currently enacted tax law. Valuation allowances are established when
necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income
tax expense is the tax payable for the period plus or minus the change during the period
in deferred tax assets and liabilities. For this six-month period however, income tax
expense was calculated and the deferred tax amounts for the year ended December 31,
2007 were used.
Cash and cash equivalents - Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with
original maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30,
2008 consisted of the foHowing deposits with financial institutions:
Money market mutual funds
Cash deposits with banks

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Trade Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable are considered to be fully collectible
at June 30, 2008; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts has been set up. If
amounts become uncollectible, they will be charged to operations when that
determination is made.
Amortization - Loan fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the loan.
Advertising - The company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred.
Advertising expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $4,054.
Comprehensive Income - The Corporation accounts for comprehensive income in
accordance with SFAS No. 130 44Reporting Comprehensive Income", which requires
comprehensive income and its components to be reported when a company has items of
comprehensive income. Comprehensive income includes net income plus other
comprehensive income (i.e. certain revenue, expenses, gains and losses reported as
separate components of stockholders' equity rather than in net income).
Use of Estimates - The preparation of fmancial statements in conformity with
generally accepted principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Note 3 - Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial Instruments that subject the Company to potential concentrations of credit risk
consist principally of temporary cash investments. The Company has concentrated its
risk with regard to cash by placing all of its temporary cash investments in one fmancial
institution. Substantially all deposits exceed existing federal deposit insurance coverage.
Cash and cash equivalents are deposited with financial institutions that management
believes are credit worthy.
Note 4 - Marketable Securities
The Company has investments in marketable equity securities that are held for an
indefmite period and are deemed available-for-sale securities. Securities categorized as
available-for-sale are stated at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of
deferred taxes, reported in stockholders' equity section of its balance sheets as
"accumulated other comprehensive income (loss j' in compliance with the provisions of
SFAS No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities".

Note 9 - Em'Ployee Stock Ownership Trust
Effective January 1, 1997, the Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Trust
(ESOT) covering substantially all eligible employees meeting age and length of service
requirements. The Plan is a qualified Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) under Section
401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan does not cover any employee whose
employment is covered by a collective bargaining agreement in which retirement benefits were
the subject of good faith bargaining, unless the agreement provides for participation in this
Plan. The Plan was adopted as an amendment and restatement of the Company's Profit
Sharing Plan, originally effective as of January 1, 1987. The assets under the Profit Sharing
Plan were transferred to the ESOP and maintained as a separate account. There have been no
added contributions to the Profit Sharing Plan since inception of the ESOP. All employees
who were eligible to participate in the Company's Profit Sharing Plan on the adoption date of
this Plan were automatically eligible to participate in this Plan as of the effective date. Under
the terms of the ESOT, contributions are at the discretion of the Board of Directors up to the
maximum allowable for tax purposes.
Under the terms of the Plan, the Company may transfer sums to the Plan Trust, which may in
turn repay the share acquisition loan, invest in the stock of the Company or other investment
opportunities (Le., saving accounts, certificates of deposit, etc.) The purpose of the Plan is to
enable participating employees to acquire beneficial stock ownership in the CQmpany without
personal cash outlay.
In 1997, the shareholders of the Company sold 262.2 shares of capital stock to the ESOT for
$1,260,000, e.videnced by a promissory note. There is no remaining balance on the Note.
On July 31, 2002, the shareholders of the Company sold an additional 161.487 shares of
capital stock to the ESOT for $700,000, evidenced by a promissory note. There is no
remaining balance on the Note.
On June 29, 2007 shareholder Melbern sold his remaining 225.15 shares of capital stock to the
ESOT for $998,529, evidenced by a promissory note of $948,529 and $50,000 in cash. The
note has an interest rate of 6% and requires annual principal payments of $94,853 until the
note is fully paid. No contribution has been made for 2008 and for this statement no accrued
amount has been recorded. See year-end fmancial statements for further details.
As stated in the ESOT agreement, the Company stock account of each participant in the ESOP
will be credited, as of each anniversary date, with the participants' allocated shares of the
Company stock purchased and paid for by the ESOP or contributed in kind by the Company.
Company stock acquired by the Trust with the proceeds of the share acquisition loan has been
credited to a suspense account. For each plan year during the duration of the above
promissory note, debt service payment will cause shares to be released from this suspense
account.
