effective Transportation Retainage Percentage set forth in the currently effective Sheet No. 44 of this

Transportation Retainage on GSQ Draws.
6. PENALTIES

(b) If Shipper, during a given Month, does not deliver to Transporter quantities of gas under this
Rate Schedule sufficient to replenish Shipper's outstanding GSQ Draws to reach a zero balance during the
immediately preceding Month, Shipper shall pay Transporter a penalty for each Dth of such unreplenished GSQ
Draws, grossed up for the Retainage percentage applicable to Transporter's NTS Rate Schedule. The penalty

Transporter. For purposes of this Section, "Spot Market Price" shall mean, for the applicable Month, the
contract index price for gas delivered to "Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC, Appalachia", as reported in Inside
FERC's Gas Market Report or successor publication. Upon payment of such penalty, Shipper's GSQ Balance shall
be restored to the extent of the quantities underlying the penalty payment, less Retainage.
(c) For purposes of calculating Penalty Revenues pursuant to Section 19.6 of the General Terms and
Conditions, any amount above 100 percent of the Spot Market Price, net of Transporter's costs, will be treated
