GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
9.7 Balancing at Termination of Service Agreement. Following the termination
of a Service Agreement, or at Transporter's discretion in the event Shipper
fails to make prompt payment under Section 10 (Billing and Payment) of the
General Terms and Conditions, or if Transporter redetermines Shipper's
creditworthiness pursuant to Section 3.9 of the General Terms and Conditions,
Transporter may take the following steps:
(a) Shipper under that Service Agreement will be required to correct
any outstanding imbalance in receipts and deliveries within 60 days after
Transporter determines, and notifies Shipper, that such an imbalance exists,
or within such longer period of time agreed to by Shipper and Transporter
(the balancing period). Shipper will correct in-kind any undertender
imbalance by making arrangements upstream of Transporter for delivery to
Transporter to correct such undertender imbalance during the balancing
period. Shipper will correct in-kind any overtender imbalance by (i)
obtaining a Service Agreement (e.g., under the IT-1 Rate Schedule) from
Transporter pursuant to the terms of this Tariff, and scheduling to receive
such overtender imbalance quantities from Transporter under such service
agreement pursuant to the terms of this Tariff, or (ii) otherwise making
arrangements pursuant to this Tariff to dispose of its overtender imbalance.
If, after the end of the balancing period, Transporter determines that an
imbalance continues to exist in Shipper's account, Transporter will resolve
such imbalance as set forth below.
(b) If Transporter determines that it delivered quantities to or for
Shipper in excess of the quantities tendered to Transporter by or for
Shipper, Transporter will assess and collect from Shipper a penalty. Shipper
will pay Transporter a penalty for each Dth of such outstanding imbalance,
grossed up for the Retainage percentages applicable to Transporter's IT-1
Rate Schedule. The amount to be paid to Transporter by Shipper shall be the
sum of: (i) 150% of the Spot Market Price for the Month during which such
quantities are made up by Transporter multiplied by the applicable number of
replenishment dekatherms; plus (ii) the cost of transporting such quantities.
For the purposes of calculating Penalty Revenues pursuant to Section 19.6 of
the General Terms and Conditions, 100 percent of the Spot Market Price times
the applicable number of replenishment dekatherms will be retained by
Transporter. 50 percent of the Spot Market Price times the applicable number
of replenishment dekatherms shall be treated as Penalty Revenues as defined
in Section 19.6 of the General Terms and Conditions. Upon payment of such
charge, the imbalance shall be removed from Shipper's account.
