7.2. Return of Loaned Quantities. For any day when Shipper desires to

return to Crossroads quantities of gas which Crossroads has delivered

for Shipper's account under this Rate Schedule, Shipper shall nominate

to Crossroads, in accordance with the General Terms and Conditions of

this Tariff, specifying the quantity of gas that Shipper desires to

return to Crossroads on such day. When Shipper's nominations are

confirmed and scheduled as required by this Tariff, Crossroads shall

receive from Shipper on such day the quantity of gas so nominated, to

the extent that Crossroads' operational conditions permit, and subject

to the limitations set forth in this Rate Schedule.

7.3 Clearance Requirements.

A. Shipper is required to reduce its Loaned Quantity to zero within

the time period specified in the Service Agreement, unless

extended by Crossroads in its sole discretion. This requirement

is to be satisfied for each quantity loaned by Crossroads.

B. If Crossroads, in its sole discretion, determines that Shipper's

Lending Service may prevent Crossroads from meeting any firm

and/or interruptible service obligations or its operational

management needs, it may notify Shipper of this determination.

Within twenty-four hours of notification by Crossroads, Shipper

must return the quantity of loaned gas specified by Crossroads

at a point specified in the Service Agreement.

8. ALLOCATION OF CAPACITY

In the event that requests for transactions under this rate schedule

exceed available capacity, the requests yielding the greatest economic

benefit to Crossroads, as determined in its sole discretion, shall be

granted first. As used in this paragraph, "economic benefit" shall be

determined on a net present value basis, based upon: (1) the proposed

rate to be paid for the Parking or Lending Service; (2) the proposed

term of the Parking or Lending Service Agreement; and (3) the proposed

MDQ for the Parking or Lending Service. Allocation of capacity pursuant

to this section shall not change the otherwise applicable curtailment

priority of the service.
