GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Cont'd)

18.4 Effectiveness of Transfers. Any transfer made pursuant to Section 18.2 shall be effective on the date

a Shipper's completed nomination form is received by Transporter electronically through its EBB, unless

Transporter rejects the transfer within two business days of Transporter's receipt of such completed

nomination form pursuant to Section 18.5. Any transfer made pursuant to Section 18.3 shall be effective on

the date a Shipper's nomination to transport inventory quantities is received by Transporter electronically

through its EBB, unless Transporter rejects the nomination prior to transportation pursuant to Section 18.5. A

transfer shall become effective as of a date certain in accordance with the foregoing, and shall have

prospective, as opposed to retroactive, effect with respect to the affected accounts from that date certain.

The cumulative balance in such affected accounts shall be adjusted as of the effective date of a transfer in

accordance with the transfer.

18.5Rejection by Transporter. Transporter may, in its reasonable discretion, reject any proposed transfer

if it determines that such transfer cannot be accommodated: (i) without diminishing Transporter's ability to

provide firm service to any Shipper; (ii) without increasing Transporter's firm service obligations; (iii)

because the gas sought to be transferred is not on Transporter's system; (iv) because of the actual account

status of the transferor's and transferee's accounts, as reflected in Transporter's records; (v) because the

transfer is requested to have a retroactive effective date; (vi) without threatening the integrity of

Transporter's system; (vii) because a SIT Shipper's account will not move closer to zero as a result of the

proposed inventory transfer; or (viii) a SIT balance would be created where one did not previously exist as a

result of the proposed inventory transfer. If the transfer is rejected pursuant to this Section 18.5,

Transporter shall provide the Shipper seeking to transfer inventory that Shipper's actual account status under

the applicable Service Agreement.
