the lowest adult fare established by the Commission for regular route 
transportation; and (2) an amount which is the amount by which 
each such carrier's net operating income from mass transportation 
operations in the District of Columbia is less than such rate of return 
established by the appropriate regulatory commission in the carrier's 
last rate case, after giving effect to the aforesaid tax exemptions, 
exclusive of any such school fare subsidy. 
Upon such certification, 
the Board of Commissioners of the District of Columbia shall pay to
