GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Cont’d)
9.12 Balancing at Termination of Service Agreement.
(a) Following the termination of a Service Agreement,
Customer under that Service Agreement shall be required to correct any
outstanding HSCQ balance within 60 days after Seller determines, and
notifies Customer, that such a HSCQ balance exists, or within such
longer period of time agreed to by Customer and Seller. To the extent
that gas remains after such period, any such quantities automatically
shall be forfeited by Customer to Seller free and clear of all liens
and encumbrances. Seller shall post such forfeited quantities on its
EBB as gas available for sale to the highest bidder within a 24-hour
notice period. Such posting may provide as a condition of sale that
such gas be withdrawn from storage within a period of time to be
specified in the notice. Upon receipt of payment, Seller shall treat
the forfeited gas proceeds as Penalty Revenues as defined in Section
19.3 of the General Terms and Conditions.
(b) If Seller determines that it withdrew quantities to
or for Customer in excess of the quantities tendered to Seller by or
for Customer, Seller shall assess and collect from Customer a penalty.
Customer shall pay Seller a penalty for each Dth of such outstanding
HSCQ balance, grossed up for the Retainage applicable to Seller’s IHSS
Rate Schedule. The penalty shall be the sum of: (i) 120 percent of the
Spot Market Price for the month during which such quantities are made
up by Seller; plus (ii) the cost of transporting such quantities at the
total effective maximum rate under Columbia’s ITS Rate Schedule. "Spot
Market Price", for purposes of this Section, shall mean, for the
applicable month, the contract index price last published during the
applicable month for gas delivered to Columbia, as reported in Natural
Gas Intelligence or successor publication. For purposes of calculating
Penalty Revenues pursuant to Section 19.3 of the General Terms and
Conditions, 100 percent of the Spot Market Price times the applicable
number of replenishment dekatherms plus the cost of transporting such
quantities shall be retained by Seller. 20 percent of the Spot Market
Price times the applicable number of replenishment dekatherms shall be
treated as Penalty Revenues as defined in Section 19.3 of the General
Terms and Conditions. Upon payment of such charge, the HSCQ balance
shall be removed from Customer's account.
