FOR TRANSPORTATION SERVICE

24. QUALIFICATION FOR SERVICE (cont'd)
For purposes herein, the insolvency of a Shipper shall be
evidenced by the filing by Shipper or any parent entity thereof
(hereinafter collectively referred to as "the Shipper") of a
voluntary petition in bankruptcy or the entry of a decree or
order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises adjudging
the Shipper bankrupt or insolvent, or approving, as properly
filed, a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjust-
ment, or composition of or in respect of the Shipper under the
Federal bankruptcy Act or any other applicable federal or state
law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Shipper or of any
substantial part of its property, or the ordering of the winding-
up or liquidation of its affairs, with said order or decree con-
tinuing unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60) con-
secutive days.
(b) For purposes of this Section, a Shipper's creditworthiness shall
not have been demonstrated if (i) the Shipper has a poor credit
history, as established by a reliable reporting agency, or with
respect to any services provided by Transporter, or (ii) the
Shipper's net worth, or its unencumbered assets in each state in
which Transporter operates, is worth less than the amount appli-
cable under Section 24.2(a)(i). Transporter may, from time to
time, limit the service it provides to Shipper to such level as
is commensurate with the prepayment or other security provided as
set forth above, or as is necessary to ensure that neither
Shipper's net worth, nor its unencumbered assets in the states in
which Transporter operates, is less than the amount applicable
under Section 24.2(a)(i).
(c) Shipper may receive service if it provides, no later than 12:00
p.m., central clock time, on the business day prior to the day on
which nominations for the desired service are due, to Transporter
the Specified Amounts, as defined below, either in the form of
(i) a prepayment to a bank designated by Transporter in U.S.
Federal funds or (ii) a letter of credit, irrevocable for ninety
(90) days, from a financial institution acceptable to Transpor-
ter. Transporter shall accept a nomination from Shippers quali-
fying for service under this Section 24.2(c) only to the extent
that the prepayment or letter of credit in effect as of such time
is sufficient to cover such Specified Amount.
