GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(continued)
have delivered to Transporter or Transporting Pipeline sufficient quantities of gas
to meet their delivery requirements from Transporter; provided however, that the
foregoing shall not require Shipper to indemnify and hold Transporter harmless from
a claim against Transporter for Transporter's negligence or willful misconduct.
Nothing in this Section 7C shall prevent a Shipper from asserting a claim against
another Shipper; in the event of such a claim between Shippers, Transporter will
make available such information in its possession relevant to such claim.
8. FORCE MAJEURE
a. In the event that either party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by force
majeure to carry out its obligations under the Service Agreement, other than to
make payments due thereunder, it is agreed that subject to such party giving notice
and full particulars of such force majeure in writing to the other party as soon as
possible after the occurrence of the cause relied on, then the obligations of the
party giving such notice, so far as they are affected by such force majeure, shall
be suspended during the continuance of any inability so caused, but for no longer
period, and such cause shall as far as possible be remedied with all reasonable
dispatch.
b. In the event of any nonperformance caused by any of the forces described in Section
8(c), the party affected shall as soon as reasonably practicable notify the other
party verbally and within five (5) working days provide the other party with
written confirmation of the nature, cause, date of commencement and anticipated
extent of such nonperformance. In the event of third party upstream pipeline force
majeure events affecting performance by Transporter, Transporter will post notice
of such, along with particulars, if and to the extent known by Transporter.
c. The term "force majeure" as employed herein shall generally mean unplanned or
unanticipated events or circumstances that are not within the control of the party
claiming suspension of its obligations and which such party could not have avoided
through the exercise of reasonable diligence, but shall specifically include: acts
of God, strikes, lockouts, or other industrial disturbances, acts of the public
enemy, wars, blockades, insurrections, riots, epidemics, landslides, lightning,
earthquakes, fires, storms, floods, washouts, arrests and restraints of governments
and people, civil disturbances, explosions, breakage or accidents to machinery or
