FORM OF NGL BANK AGREEMENT
ARTICLE V
SETTLEMENTS
Cont'd
5.4 NGL Bank Billings and Payments cont'd
Designation of agent does not relieve Shipper from any rights or
responsibilities arising from this Agreement. After receipt of
such payments from shippers or their designated agents owing the
NGL Bank, Administrator shall, during the next following month,
remit payment from the NGL Bank to Shipper or its designated
agents, if due, less any adjustments for administrative expenses
related to the NGL Bank. To the extent that all monies due the
NGL Bank for a particular month are not received in a timely
manner from shippers or their designated agents owing the NGL
Bank, Administrator shall pro-rate monies available for
disbursement from the NGL Bank to shippers owed monies by the NGL
Bank based upon the total amount owed any such shipper compared
to the total amount owed to all shippers for that month.
Administrator shall make appropriate adjustments in the
succeeding months until any such shortfalls have been satisfied;
provided, however, that the Administrator shall not be required
to pay interest on the unpaid portion of any amount due any
shipper. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein,
in no event shall the Administrator be obligated to pay out more
funds from the NGL Bank than it has received from shippers, after
adjustment for administrative expenses. Shipper will be charged
interest on late payments or partial payments as stated in the
Transporter's GT&C. Any interest collected by the Administrator
hereunder attributable to payment shortfalls into the NGL Bank
shall be pro-rated among those shippers owed money from the NGL
Bank taking into consideration the amount owed and the length of
time such amount has been owed.
Shipper acknowledges and agrees that Administrator shall not be
obligated to disperse any NGL Bank settlement funds to Shipper
unless and until Administrator has received sufficient settlement
funds from other shippers to pay the amounts due Shipper. It is
the intent of the parties hereto that Administrator shall act
only as a conduit for NGL Bank settlement funds and shall have no
personal obligation or liability for any settlements due Shipper.
