4.2 Auctions of Capacity that Becomes Available. As capacity becomes available on Transporter's system

for firm services under the circumstances set forth in Section 4.1 above or otherwise, such capacity shall be

Transporter on its EBB for at least the following periods:

(1) five business days for firm capacity that will be available for a term of twelve

months or longer;

preceding bid, for all or any portion of the capacity or term of service made available by Transporter. Such

bids shall be submitted electronically through Transporter's EBB and shall be displayed by Transporter on the

EBB, without revealing the identity of the bidder, during the bidding period. Bidder shall specify the

monthly reservation charge (or other firm or demand charge(s), if applicable, herein referred to collectively

that: (i) are for a rate that is less than the minimum rate stated in Transporter's posting of that capacity;

(ii) do not satisfy any of the other terms specified in the posting; or (iii) include conditions or provisions

that Transporter determines, in its reasonable discretion, to be unacceptable.
