following criteria:

Credit & Financial Information," supplied by Pipeline,

which shall include Customer's legal structure; its

officers, partners, or proprietors, its previous

suppliers; trade references; bank references; recent

financial statements; and other credit information

considered relevant by Pipeline. The results of

reference checks must show that Customer's obligations

are being paid on a reasonably prompt basis and that

change in ownership. Trade and bank references must

be provided annually.

statement and accompanying notes) on an annual basis.
