GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
4.16 Discounting. (continued)
(a) only to certain specified service entitlements under the
Agreement;
(b) only if specified quantity levels are actually achieved under
the Agreement (with higher rates, charges, and fees applicable
to all quantities above those levels, or to all quantities under
the Agreement if the specified levels are not achieved);
(c) only to production reserves committed by the Shipper;
(d) only during specified time periods;
(e) only to specified Point(s) of Receipt, Point(s) of Delivery,
mainline area segments, supply areas, Transportation routes, or
defined geographical areas; or
(f) in a specified relationship to the quantities actually Delivered
(i.e., that the rates shall be adjusted in a specified
relationship to quantities actually Delivered); and/or
(g) to a formula including, but not limited to, published index
prices for specific receipt and/or delivery points or other
agreed-upon published pricing reference points for price
determination (such discounted rate may be based upon the
differential between published index prices or arrived at by
formula). Such discounted rate:
(1) shall not change the underlying rate design;
(2) shall not include any minimum bill or minimum take provision
that has the effect of guaranteeing revenue;
(3) shall define the rate component to be discounted.
(g) to increasing (or decreasing) a discounted rate for service
under one rate schedule to make up for a decrease (or increase)
in the rate for a separate service provided under another rate
schedule.
In addition, the discount language of the Agreement may include a
provision that if one rate component which was at or below the
applicable maximum rate at the time the discount agreement was
executed subsequently exceeds the applicable maximum rate due to a
change in Transporter's maximum rates so that such rate component
must be adjusted downward to equal the new applicable maximum rate,
then other rate components may be adjusted upward to achieve the
agreed overall rate, so long as none of the resulting rate
components exceed the maximum rate applicable to that rate
component. Such changes to rate components shall be applied
prospectively, commencing with the date a Commission order accepts
revised tariff provisions. However, nothing contained herein shall
be construed to alter a refund obligation under applicable law for
any period during which rates that had been charged under a discount
agreement exceeded rates which ultimately are found to be just and
reasonable.
