GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued)
7. CAPACITY ALLOCATION
This Section sets forth the manner in which Transporter shall allocate capacity among its Rate
Schedules when it has received nominations from Shippers that exceed available capacity.
7.1 General Priority. Transporter shall allocate capacity on its system in the following order commencing
with the highest priority:
(a) capacity at delivery points;
(b) capacity at any point between the receipt points and delivery points ("internal point") that
is restricted, beginning with the point closest to the delivery point if capacity at more than one internal
point is restricted; and
(c) capacity at receipt points.
7.2 Transportation Delivery Points. For transportation capacity at delivery points under Rate Schedules
FTS-1, FTS-2, ITS-1, ITS-2, PAL, IMS, and X-Rate Schedules, Transporter shall (i) allocate capacity
sequentially among the Rate Schedule priority groupings set forth below and (ii) allocate among customers
paying the same rate within those Rate Schedule priority groupings, in the order and manner set forth below:
(a) Rate Schedules FTS-1, FTS-2 and Firm X-Rate Schedules. For deliveries to primary delivery
points under the FTS-1, FTS-2 Rate Schedules, and under firm X-Rate Schedules set forth in Volume No. 2 of this
Tariff, upon the occurrence of a force majeure event or the existence of a condition identified on Section 16
(Interruptions of Service) of the General Terms and Conditions, Transporter shall allocate capacity among those
Shippers on a pro rata basis, based upon those Shippers' respective levels of Transportation Demand.
(b) Secondary Delivery Points Under Rate Schedules FTS-1 and FTS-2. For deliveries to secondary
delivery points under the FTS-1 and FTS-2 Rate Schedules, Transporter shall allocate capacity first to Shippers
with secondary delivery points within the Primary Path of such Shippers. Transporter shall award capacity to
those Shippers sequentially beginning with the highest rate, based upon those Shippers' respective nominated
quantities. Where requested deliveries at the highest rate exceed Transporter's capacity at secondary delivery
points, Transporter shall allocate such capacity first to those Shippers flowing gas on a pro rata basis, based
upon each such Shipper's respective confirmed nominations, and second to all remaining Shippers based upon the
order in which Transporter received nominations from those Shippers (equally to any Shippers submitting
nominations within the same Nomination Cycle on the same day). Any remaining capacity shall then be allocated
to Shippers with secondary delivery points outside the Primary Path of such Shippers. Transporter shall award
capacity to those Shippers sequentially beginning with the highest rate, based upon those Shippers' respective
nominated quantities. Where requested deliveries exceed Transporter's capacity at secondary delivery points,
Transporter shall allocate such capacity first to those Shippers flowing gas on a pro rata basis, based upon
each such Shipper's respective confirmed nominations, and second to all remaining Shippers based upon the order
in which Transporter received nominations from those Shippers (equally to any Shippers submitting nominations
within the same Nomination Cycle on the same day). These priorities shall apply where Shipper's aggregate
deliveries at primary and secondary delivery points do not exceed Shipper's Transportation Demand.
