Great Lakes has implemented Confirmation by Exception (CBE) pursuant to Standard 1.2.11 of the

Other Terms and Conditions
Each party, at its own expense, shall provide and maintain the equipment, software, services and
testing necessary to effectively and reliably transmit and/or receive documents, notices, and
nominations. Any transmission by one party shall be binding upon receipt by the other party, except
that, if any transmission is received in an unintelligible or garbled form, the receiving party shall
promptly notify the other party, and such garbled or unintelligible transmission shall not be deemed
binding.
Any transmission properly transmitted shall be considered to be a writing or in writing; and any
such transmission containing, or to which there is affixed, Subscriber's USERID and password, shall
be deemed for all purposes to have been signed and to constitute an original when printed from
electronic files or records established and maintained in the course of business (Signed Documents).
The parties agree not to contest the validity or enforceability of Signed Documents under the
provisions of any applicable law relating to whether certain agreements are to be in writing or
signed by the party to be bound thereby. Signed Documents, if introduced as evidence on paper in any
judicial, arbitration, mediation, or administrative proceedings, will be admissible as between the
parties to the same extent and under the same conditions as other business records originated and
maintained in documentary form. Neither party shall contest the admissibility of copies of Signed
Documents under either the business records exception to the hearsay rule or the best evidence rule
on the basis that the Signed Documents were not originated or maintained in documentary form.

Great Lakes' effective FERC Gas Tariffs that are incorporated by reference in this agreement, such
other terms and conditions shall govern Subscriber's use of GLConnect.
