GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
11. FIRM CAPACITY REASSIGNMENT (Cont'd)
(c) Replacement and Pre-arranged Shippers must be on Southern
Star's Approved Bidder List, as defined in Section 8.5, and
have sufficient creditworthiness approved by Southern Star
to cover its bid before its bid may be submitted under
Section 11 of these General Terms and Conditions. The
Replacement or Pre-arranged Shipper must satisfy all other
pipeline tariff provisions governing Shipper eligibility
before it may contract with Southern Star for the released
capacity. Once the Replacement or Pre-arranged Shipper,
with the approval of Releasing Shippers, executes a Service
Agreement with Southern Star, the Replacement or Pre-
arranged Shipper becomes a Shipper like any other Shipper
and is subject to applicable provisions of Southern Star's
FERC Gas Tariff, including but not limited to Southern
Star's billing and payment and operational provisions. In
addition, the Replacement or Pre-arranged Shipper as a
Shipper may also release its capacity pursuant to this
Section. Firm capacity reassignments will require the
tender of paper service agreements only when the release is
for the entire remaining term of all or a portion of the
Releasing Shipper's capacity on Southern Star's system.
(d) Any Replacement or Pre-Arranged Shipper who satisfies all
tariff provisions governing eligibility and who desires the
capacity may submit a bid for the capacity under the
conditions posted in conjunction with a notice of release.
Any such bid shall be considered a service request pursuant
to Section 8.1 of these General Terms Conditions; provided,
however, that no earnest money payment will be required.
The Shipper desiring capacity must submit a bid to Southern
Star via Southern Star's CSI prior to the expiration of the
bidding period. Bids for capacity may not exceed Southern
Star's posted maximum rate including ACA or other
surcharges; provided, however, that beginning July 30, 2008,
the maximum rate ceiling specified in the preceding sentence
shall not apply to capacity release transactions of one year
or less. Southern Star will post a volumetric equivalent of
its maximum reservation charge on the applicable Tariff
Sheet 10, 10A, or 11. Any marketing fee to be earned by
Southern Star may not be included in a maximum rate bid by a
Replacement Shipper. Bids for capacity will be posted on
Southern Star's CSI with the bidder's identity deleted.
