13.6 OPEN SEASON EXCEPTIONS

An open season is not required for: (a) a Prearranged

Release for the maximum reservation charge applicable to the capacity

being released; or (b) a Short-term Prearranged Release. A Capacity

Release Request which is not subject to an open season need only

contain the information required in Sections 13.4(a) and (b). Such

Capacity Release Request must be delivered to Transporter's DART

system (or in writing for posting on Transporter's DART system if

Transporter's DART system is unavailable for receiving Capacity

Release Requests) sufficiently in advance so that the release may

become effective under Section 13.9 before the release transaction is

to commence. A Releasing Shipper may not rollover, extend or in any

way continue a Short-term Prearranged Release with the same

Replacement or Subreplacement Shipper until twenty-eight (28) days

after the Short-term Prearranged Release has ended unless the

Releasing Shipper complies with the Capacity Release Request

provisions in Sections 13.3 and 13.4.

13.7 POSTINGS; OPEN SEASON

(a) A Capacity Release Request received by Transporter via EDI

(which is applicable only for Prearranged Capacity Release Request)

or through the DART system prior to the starting time of the open

season requested by the Releasing Shipper in its Capacity Release

Request in conformance with this Section 13 shall be posted on

Transporter's DART system as requested. The posting shall contain the

information contained in the Capacity Release Request, except that

all identifying information, and the minimum price in any minimum

price condition requested to be held confidential by the Releasing

Shipper (but not the existence of the minimum bid condition), shall

be kept confidential and shall not be posted. The posting shall also

include the maximum reservation charge (including all reservation

surcharges) applicable to the capacity subject to the Capacity

Release Request, the beginning and ending time for the open season

and the time the notice was posted. Transporter shall post the

Capacity Release Request upon receipt, unless the Releasing Shipper

requests otherwise. If the Releasing Shipper requests a posting time,

Transporter will comply with that request as long as it comports with

the deadlines set forth in this Section 13.
