GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(continued)
13. PROCEDURES FOR AVOIDANCE OF PREGRANTED ABANDONMENT (continued)
retracted in writing or until KLNG accepts a competing bid. To be a
valid bid, a bid must comply with the bid requirements set forth in
Section 13.6. At the close of such bidding period, KLNG shall select
among the valid bids the Best Bid, as determined pursuant to Section
13.7, and shall relay the relevant terms of such Best Bid to the
Customer whose long-term firm service agreement is being terminated
by KLNG. If Customer elects to match, as determined by Section 13.8,
the Best Bid, the Customer shall be entitled to retain its capacity
and continue to receive service under a long-term firm service
agreement which reflects the matching of the relevant terms of the
Best Bid. If Customer does not match the Best Bid, then Customer's
existing long-term firm service agreement shall terminate and KLNG
shall have all necessary abandonment authorization under the Natural
Gas Act. In the event there is no Best Bid for Customer to match,
Section 13.9 shall determine whether Customer shall be entitled to
retain its capacity and continue to receive service.
13.6 Bid Requirements. To be a valid bid, a bid must be in writing and be
executed by one authorized to sign contractual agreements on behalf
of the Potential Customer, and the Potential Customer must in all
other particulars have complied with the requirements for a request
for service pursuant to Section 2 and meet the credit evaluation
standards set forth in Section 3 of these General Terms and
Conditions. If the Potential Customer's bid is matched or if the
Potential Customer fails to satisfy all of KLNG's tariff provisions
governing Customer eligibility, KLNG will refund the Potential
Customer's prepayment supplied pursuant to Section 2 of the General
Terms and Conditions. The prepayment will not be refunded if the bid
is withdrawn by the Potential Customer. KLNG may reject all bids
which would require KLNG to discount below a rate and discount term
agreeable to KLNG.
