31. DISCOUNTING
31.1 In the event that Transporter agrees to discount its rate to Shipper
below Transporter's maximum rate under Transporter's FT, IT and SS
Rate Schedules, the following discount terms may be reflected on the
applicable service agreements and will apply without the discount
constituting a material deviation from Transporter's Form of Service
Agreement; provided, however, that any such discounted rates set
forth below shall be between the minimum and maximum rates
applicable to the service provided under the applicable rate
schedule. Transporter and Shipper may agree that a specified
discounted rate will apply under the following conditions:
(a) to specified quantities under the TSA or related scheduled
overrun transportation;
(b) to specified quantities achieving or not exceeding a certain
level;
(c) in a specified relationship to quantities actually
transported;
(d) to specified quantities during specified periods of time or
during specified periods of the year;
(e) to specified quantities at specific receipt or delivery
points or other geographical locations;
(f) to production reserves committed by the Shipper; and/or
(g) that a specific discounted rate is based on published index
prices for specific receipt and/or delivery points or other
agreed-upon published pricing reference points (such
discounted rate may be based upon the differential between
published prices or arrived at by formula). Any agreement
containing such discounted rate shall specify the rate
component(s) to be discounted (i.e., reservation charge or
usage charge or both) and any formula will provide a
reservation rate per unit of contract demand (Maximum Daily
Quantity). To the extent the firm reservation charge is
discounted, the index price differential rate formula shall
be calculated to state a rate per dth. Furthermore, such
discount shall not change the underlying rate design of the
service being provided or include any minimum bill or minimum
take provision that would have the effect of guaranteeing
revenue.
