GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

(continued)

5.2 Receipt Nominations and Allocation Methodology (continued)

(d) Scheduling: Unless the Confirming Parties have agreed to

Confirmation by Exception, Transporter will initiate

confirmation of a receipt nomination from an Operator and

Operator shall provide such confirmation in accordance with

the above-specified deadlines. Transporter will not be

obligated to schedule a nomination if the Operator does not

confirm such nomination in time to allow Transporter to

schedule it within the time requested by Shipper.

Nominations received after the nomination deadline(s) for a

given period will be scheduled after the nominations

received before such deadline(s). To the extent a receipt

nomination is not fully confirmed or scheduled, it will be

treated as resubmitted for the next cycle unless the

Shipper submits a nomination to replace it before the

nomination deadline for the next cycle. After scheduling

a nomination, Transporter will make notification of

scheduled quantities available to parties as is necessary.

Transporter shall have no obligation to schedule

nominations which are not properly submitted or do not have

consistent and verifiable corresponding delivery

nominations (except for Rate Schedule NNTS). Nominations

which are submitted without consistent corresponding

delivery nominations will not be accepted. In situations

where Transporter cannot schedule all receipt nominations

submitted, either systemwide, in a particular Pooling Area

or on a particular segment of its system, due to capacity

or operational constraints, Transporter will schedule

nominations in a manner that tends to alleviate the

operational or capacity constraints and maximizes total

throughput on Transporter's system, utilizing the

priorities set forth below, subject to other terms and

conditions of this Tariff. Transporter will make scheduled

quantities available electronically to Shipper, Operator,
