9. CAPACITY RELEASE PROGRAM (Continued)

9.10 Execution of Agreements (Continued)

(a) (Continued)

Any Shipper that utilizes Transporter's capacity release

program shall maintain on file with Transporter the name(s)

of those person(s) who have been designated on behalf of such

Shipper to perform those functions required by this Section 9

as well as Shipper's signature code. The use of a signature

code will be deemed to be Shipper's consent to be bound by

the capacity release transaction. When capacity is awarded,

Shipper's signature code shall be automatically,

electronically affixed on the electronic record of the

capacity release transaction. Entry of this signature code

in all cases shall evidence that the Acquiring Shipper has

accepted the transaction. No paper copy of the contract for

a capacity release transaction will be issued.

(b) Upon the award of capacity, the capacity release transaction

is electronically executed between Transporter and the

Acquiring Shipper.

(c) Where capacity has been released for the entire remaining

term of the Releasing Shipper's TSA, the Releasing Shipper

may request Transporter to amend its TSA to reflect the

release of capacity. Absent agreement by Transporter to such

amendment, which may be conditioned on exit fees or other

terms and conditions, the Releasing Shipper shall remain

bound by and liable for payment of the reservation charge(s)

and reservation surcharge(s) under the TSA.

To the extent that capacity is released for the remaining

term of the Releasing Shipper's TSA and the Acquiring Shipper

has agreed to pay the maximum reservation charge(s) and

reservation surcharge(s) for such capacity, Releasing

Shipper's contract shall be amended so as to relieve such

shipper of any further liability for payment of the

reservation charge(s) and reservation surcharge(s) applicable

to the capacity released under the TSA. In the event the

Releasing Shipper's TSA is amended to reflect the release of

capacity, Transporter shall enter into a TSA with the

Acquiring Shipper in the form prescribed for service in this

tariff but containing the rates and terms and conditions

established for the acquired capacity pursuant to this

Section 9.
