RATE SCHEDULE FT-3

FIRM TRANSPORTATION SERVICE

3. COMMITMENT con't

3.5 If Shipper submits its production profile and

supporting technical data to Transporter in accordance

with Section 3.3(a) of this Rate Schedule and

Transporter determines either that (1) the data

supplied are insufficient to permit Transporter to

assess the reasonableness of Shipper's production

profile and MDTQs; or (2) that Shipper's production

profile is not reasonable or the requested MDTQs are

not supported by Shipper's production profile, then

Transporter and Shipper shall make a good faith attempt

to agree on a production profile and MDTQs which, when

agreed upon, shall be binding on Shipper and

Transporter for purposes of Shipper's request for

service under Section 3 of this Rate Schedule. If

Transporter and Shipper cannot reach agreement on such

production profile and MDTQs, then Shipper shall submit

all technical data supporting Shipper's production

profile and the requested MDTQs, including data

considered to be confidential and, therefore, not

provided to Transporter under Section 3.3(a), to one of

the engineering firms listed on Appendix "A" to this

Rate Schedule which engineering firm, in consultation

with Shipper, shall issue a report establishing

Shipper's production profile and MDTQ(s). The

production profile and MDTQs established in the report

shall be binding on Shipper and Transporter for

purposes of Shipper's request for service under Section

3 of this Rate Schedule. All costs and fees due to the

engineering firm with respect to the development of the

production profile and MDTQs under this Section 3.5

shall be shared equally between Shipper and Transporter

unless Shipper determines not to contract for service

under this Rate Schedule or Rate Schedule FT-2 in which

event Shipper shall bear all such costs and fees.
