allocate such capacity to other Buyers.
(viii) If after Buyer's gas is confirmed, Operator is notified that Buyer's gas
is not available, then Operator may cease deliveries. However, Operator
shall hold such interruptible capacity for Buyer for 48 hours before

(7) Buyer's Notice of Changes. Except for reasons of force majeure, as described at
Section 14 (Force Majeure) of the General Terms and Conditions, Buyer shall

deliver or to cause to be delivered to Operator for transportation under
Operator's Rate Schedules. If an unanticipated or a force majeure event causes a

Section, Buyer shall satisfy the requirements of both the individual Rate
Schedules and this Section.

arrangements with third parties (i) at or upstream of the Receipt Points at which

terms and conditions of the applicable Rate Schedule under which it seeks to have

Buyer's nominations with Operator by telephone, by facsimile transmission or other
means acceptable to Operator and such other third party. Such third-party
arrangements shall be coordinated with Operator.
