GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Cont'd)
20. DISCOUNTING
20.1 In General. Transporter may at any time in its sole discretion selectively discount the rate(s)
applicable to any individual Shipper under the Rate Schedules set forth in Volume No. 1 of this Tariff with
the exception of Rate Schedules FSS-M and ISS-M; provided, however, that such discounted rate(s) shall not be
less than the Minimum Rate(s) for the applicable service as set forth in the currently-effective rate sheets
of this Tariff. If Transporter discounts any rate to any Shipper, Transporter shall file with the Commission
any required reports respecting such adjusted rate. Transporter and Shipper shall enter into a written
agreement describing the terms of any such discounting of Shipper's rate(s).
20.2 Apportionment of Discounts. For each transaction discounted pursuant to this provision, the amount of
the discount (the difference between the maximum rate otherwise applicable to the transaction and the total
rate to be billed) shall be apportioned among the components of the rate in the following order: (1) the Base
Tariff Rate, and the Current Operational TCRA Rate and Operational TCRA Surcharge collected pursuant to
Section 36 of the General Terms and Conditions, on a pro rata basis; and (2) the Electric Power Costs
Adjustment (EPCA) charges, the Current Stranded TCRA Rate and the Stranded TCRA Surcharge collected pursuant
to Section 36 of the General Terms and Conditions, on a pro rata basis.
20.3 Allocation or Interruption. To the extent that Transporter allocates or interrupts service rights
based upon price, as set forth in Section 7 (Capacity Allocation) and Section 16 (Interruptions of Service) of
the General Terms and Conditions, the price utilized by Transporter for such purposes, where rates for service
have been discounted by Transporter, shall be Shipper's discounted rate for the service.
20.4 Refunds. If the rates charged Shipper exceed the rates ultimately approved by the Commission, any
required refund shall be made based on the amount by which the rate actually collected from Shipper exceeds
the rate approved by the Commission. This provision will not apply to rates charged under Rate Schedules FSS-
M or ISS-M.
