of the firm capacity under the Agreement at the

expiration of the Agreement's term provided that

Customer notifies Seller in writing twelve (12)

months prior to the expiration of the Agreement of

its intent to continue service under the

offering a rate and term of Agreement that

produces an equivalent or greater economic value

(using a term not to exceed five (5) years) for

such capacity as defined in Section 10.1(a),

above, provided that Seller shall not be obligated

to enter into an extension of any Agreement or

continue service at any rate that does not yield

have ten (10) Business Days to notify Seller

whether it will match the rate and term offered in
