GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(continued)
11. PAYMENTS (continued)
11.2Late Payments. Should Customer fail to make timely payment of
part or all of the amount of any bill, payment, when made,
either partly or all, shall be deemed a late payment and
KLNG shall charge interest from the due date of payment
until the actual date of payment at an annual interest rate
equal to the current national prime interest rate plus 1-1/2
percent, prorated for the number of days that the payment
was late. KLNG shall bill Customer for any interest due
under this subsection in its next billing for gas service,
and Customer shall pay such amount in accordance with
Subsection 11.1 above. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this subsection, where a Customer fails to
make timely payments three times during any twelve-month
period, the applicable interest rate for subsequent late
payments during such twelve month period shall be twice the
sum of the current national prime interest rate plus 1-1/2
percent, but not in excess of the maximum lawful rate. KLNG
may waive the interest on a late payment made within five
days of the due date where Customer has diligently paid its
prior bills on time, and lateness in payment is of a
nonrecurring nature.
Should Customer fail to pay the bill for thirty days after
payment is due and such failure continues beyond such thirty
days, KLNG, in addition to any other remedy it may have
hereunder, may, after any necessary authorization by regulatory
bodies having jurisdiction, suspend further receipt, storage, or
delivery of gas for Customer until such amount is paid, subject
to Subsection 11.3 below.
