(ii) The four trade publications referenced above are
Inside FERC Gas Market Report (Prices of Spot Gas
Delivered to Pipelines), Natural Gas Week (Spot
Prices on Natural Gas Pipeline Systems, Delivered to
Pipelines), Gas Daily (Natural Gas Survey), and
Natural Gas Intelligence Gas Price Index (Spot Gas
Prices Delivered to Pipeline, 30 Day Supply

In the event any of the publications cease publication or
to the extent a publication fails to report spot prices,
then El Paso shall reserve the right to substitute prices
reported in a similar independent publication or continue
the pricing formula using the average of the remaining
publications. Changes in the name, format or other
method of reporting by the publications in (e) above that
do not materially affect the content shall not affect
their use hereunder.
(iii) El Paso shall post the Index Price monthly on its
electronic bulletin board on or before the 15th day
of each month applicable to the prior business month.
(iv) For any contract where total deliveries by El Paso
for a Shipper exceed the total receipts from
Shipper, after appropriate reductions, such
imbalance shall be "cashed out" based on the
percentages provided below. Further, the Index
Price shall be adjusted to reflect the point at
which the imbalance is held.
(1) For any contract subject to Section 20.11(d),
or by mutual agreement any contract with an
imbalance up to and including +5%, the quantity
will be invoiced at 100% of the Index Price;
(2) For any contract subject to Section 20.12(d) or
any contract with an imbalance greater than +5%
but less than or equal to +10%, the quantity in
excess of +5% will be invoiced at 110% of the
Index Price;
