Original Sheet No. 22 Original Sheet No. 22 : Effective
service would impair Caprock's ability to meet its firm
service obligations, or to render any future service that may
be provided by Caprock on a firm basis. Shipper shall
indemnify Caprock from and against any and all losses, damages
or expenses of every kind and character, direct or indirect,
which Caprock or Shipper may suffer, sustain or be liable and
hold Caprock harmless from and against any and all damages,
claims, suits, actions or proceedings whatsoever threatened or
initiated as a result of any curtailment or interruption
invoked by Caprock.
(B) In the event any services are curtailed or
interrupted hereunder, Caprock shall reduce scheduled service,
to zero if necessary, in the following order:
(1) scheduled service under Caprock's
interruptible rate schedules commencing with service to
be charged at the minimum rate of Caprock then in effect
on a first-come, first-served basis, based upon the
queue priority as determined in accordance with this
Section; next in order shall be service to be charged at
a rate that is greater than the minimum rate of Caprock
then in effect, in sequence beginning with the rate most
proximate to the minimum rate, such determination to be
based on the percentage of discount from the applicable
maximum rate, and within each rate category on a first-
come, first-served basis based on queue priority;
provided further that within each of these rate
categories among Shippers with the identical first-come,
first-served priority on Caprock's system where Caprock
is required to interrupt or curtail scheduled
interruptible transportation, Caprock shall prorate the
available capacity among said Shippers based upon the
quantities of gas scheduled by Caprock for their
respective accounts. In the event Shipper is receiving
service at less than the applicable maximum rate and
Caprock determines that interruption or curtailment of
service is required, Shippers making such election will
be required to pay the applicable maximum rate in order
to avoid interruption or curtailment of service to the
extent that any interruptible service is available as
determined by Caprock. Such election shall be a one
time election effective during such periods of
interruption or curtailment regardless of duration; and
(2) scheduled service under Caprock's FS Firm
Rate Schedule on a pro rata basis. Such proration shall
be based on Caprock's maximum firm daily contractual
obligations to provide firm service on that day.
