GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
8. OPERATING CONDITIONS FOR TRANSPORTATION SERVICE (Cont'd)
8.12 Processing Rights
Shippers may exercise, either on their own behalf or on behalf of
any third party possessing such rights, any processing rights they
may have to gas gathered or transported by Southern Star by
nominating the gas quantities they desire to deliver to a
processing plant on Southern Star's system for processing pursuant
to a contract between the Shipper, or its designee, and plant for
removal of any constituents of the gas. Subject to Southern Star
confirming the nomination with all necessary parties, including
the plant operator, the Shipper will be deemed to have warranted
that the Shipper or its designee has the rights to process the gas
and that the Shipper will indemnify and hold Southern Star
harmless from any third party claims based on an assertion of
processing rights to such gas. If the Shipper does not so
exercise processing rights, or if the plant operator refuses to
confirm Shipper's nomination, then Southern Star shall have the
right to process the gas between the Shipper's designated Receipt
Point(s) and Delivery Points(s), as provided in Section 19.
Further, if Southern Star in good faith asserts in writing that
Southern Star has acquired processing rights under a contract with
an owner of such rights, then Southern Star shall have the right
to process the gas downstream of the Shipper's designated Point(s)
of Receipt, subject to the understanding that neither this tariff
provision nor Section 19 shall be construed as a modification,
abrogation, waiver, or compromise of any right, claim, or remedy
with respect to such contract that any party may assert to, or
with respect to, the constituents in the gas stream, for any time
period. In the event that Southern Star prevails in any dispute
based on the "good faith assertion," then Southern Star shall have
the right to retain the substances resulting from the processing
of the gas, pursuant to Section 19.
