ARTICLE X - INVOICING AND PAYMENT (Continued)
10.2 Payment. On or before the twenty-fifth Day of each Month, or the
previous Business Day in the event the twenty-fifth Day is a weekend or
holiday, Shipper shall pay Transporter by wire transfer of federal
funds, the amount of the invoice rendered by Transporter for the Billing
Month in accordance with Section 10.1. Any payment shall be considered
to have been made on the date such payment is transferred by Shipper to
the address designated by Transporter. Shipper shall make payment each
month of the amount as invoiced by Transporter for transportation
service rendered pursuant hereto without any abatement or set off unless
the parties agree otherwise; provided, however, such payment shall be
without prejudice to Shipper's right to claim, demand, and recover from
Transporter any billing adjustments and amounts paid by Shipper which it
is mutually determined by the parties or determined by judgement or
decree were not owed to Transporter together with interest as provided
in Section 10.4.
10.3 Interest on Unpaid Amounts. Should Shipper fail to pay the amount of
any bill rendered by Transporter when such amount is due, unless such
failure to pay is the result of Transporter's error, interest shall
accrue on the amount not paid at a rate of interest equal to the then
effective rate computed in the manner set forth in Section 154.501(d)(1)
of the FERC's regulations under the Natural Gas Act. If such
regulations become inapplicable to such amounts, the rate shall be
computed on the basis of the lesser of two percent (2%) above the prime
rate from time to time charged by Chase Manhattan, N.A. (or the
succeeding bank of Chase Manhattan, N.A.), or the maximum applicable
nonusurious rate of interest in the state of Texas. Such interest shall
accrue on unpaid amounts, including any unpaid interest compounded
daily, beginning on the payment due date of Transporter's invoice to
Shipper, and shall terminate when such an invoice is paid.
