GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
14.5 Assignment Agreements.
(a) For all transactions pursuant to this Section 14, Transporter shall electronically transmit
an Assignment Agreement upon receipt of Replacement Shipper's electronic confirmation reflecting the terms
of the Release Notice to Replacement Shipper by (or where Replacement Shipper has not executed the
Electronic Contracting Agreement, within five business days following): (i) 5:00 p.m. (C.T.) on the day
bidding closes; or (ii) one hour after Releasor posts on Transporter's EBB an exempt transaction not subject
to competitive bidding (by providing to Transporter the information specified in Sections 14.1(b)(10) and
14.2(b)).
(b) Transporter and Replacement Shipper shall execute the Assignment Agreement in substantially the
form contained in this Tariff; provided that such an Agreement shall be executed electronically where an
executed contract is required within five business days of its transmission by Transporter. That Assignment
Agreement shall contain all terms and conditions of the release and assignment; provided that such terms and
conditions are identical to those set forth in the underlying Release Notice. Where electronic contracting
is required as described immediately above, all Replacement Shippers must have executed an Electronic
Contracting Agreement in accordance with the electronic contracting procedures specified in Section 5.7 of
the General Terms and Conditions. All Replacement Shippers must appear on Transporter's Approved Bidders
List, which list shall indicate Bidders that have executed an Electronic Contracting Agreement. Service
will not be provided unless the Assignment Agreement properly has been executed. If the Replacement Shipper
does not execute and return such Assignment Agreement within two business days of Transporter's tender (or
such later date established by Releasor through notice to Transporter and Replacement Shipper),
Transporter's offer of an Assignment Agreement shall be void and Transporter will tender an Assignment
Agreement to the next highest acceptable bidder, if any, consistent with the terms of the Release Notice.
Except with respect to prearranged transactions described in Section 14.2(a) above, Replacement Shippers
failing to return such agreement shall be removed from Transporter's Approved Bidders List for six months,
or less than six months if agreed to in writing by the Releasor. Nothing herein shall restrict Releasor
from pursuing any other remedies it may have against a Replacement Shipper failing to execute and return an
Assignment Agreement tendered by Transporter.
14.6 Implementation; Receipt and Delivery Points. Following acceptance of a bid for assignment and
execution of an assignment agreement, Transporter will accept nominations or requests for alternate receipt
or delivery points for the assigned capacity. Replacement Shippers may submit nominations to Transporter in
the next available nomination cycle, as specified in Section 6.2(e) of the General Terms and Conditions,
following execution of an Assignment Agreement, consistent with the electronic contracting requirement set
forth in Section 5.7 of the General Terms and Conditions. Replacement Shippers may not, however, exercise
flexible receipt and delivery point authority at primary points unless such exercise is agreed to in writing
by Releasor. Quantities flowing under assigned service rights shall have the same priority as those
quantities had under the applicable underlying service agreement originally entered into by Releasor and
Transporter, and that priority shall be unaffected by whether or not the assignment is subject to recall, as
described at Section 14.7 below.
