GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
(b) A potential Replacement Shipper responding to the posting of a
Release Notice shall be permitted to bid a quantity and a term of service
different from those specified in the posted Release Notice; provided,
however, that a Bidder shall not be permitted to bid a quantity or a term of
service lower than any minimum quantity or term disclosed and posted by
Releasor in the Release Notice. Bidders must accept all other conditions set
forth in the Release Notice.
(c) Bids shall be submitted by potential Replacement Shippers
without bidders knowing the identities of other bidders. Bidders may submit
multiple bids, each higher than the previous bid, during the posting period
established pursuant to Section 14.2(e) above.
(d) All bidders must (i) have pre-qualified under Transporter's
creditworthiness standards, (ii) appear on Transporter's Approved Bidders
List, and (iii) where execution of an Assignment Agreement will be required
within five days of its transmission by Transporter, have executed an
Electronic Contracting Agreement with Transporter, as required by Section 3
(Requests for Service), Section 9 Operating Conditions, and Section 5
(Service Agreement and Electronic Contracting), of the General Terms and
Conditions.
(e) All bids for capacity release transactions more than one (1)
year in length and all capacity release transactions one (1) year or less in
length that will take effect more than one (1) year from the date on which
Transporter is notified of the release shall neither exceed the maximum rates
nor be less than the minimum rates permitted by the Commission for the
released services. Bids for capacity release transactions of one (1) year or
less in length, that will take effect on or before one (1) year from the date
on which Transporter is notified of the release, may exceed the maximum rates
but shall not be less than the minimum rates permitted by the Commission for
released services. Bids for capacity that are subject to maximum rates, and
that are submitted at a one-part volumetric rate (which shall apply only to
the reservation portion of the rate), shall not exceed a maximum rate
calculated by converting the applicable maximum reservation charge into a
volumetric charge at a 100% load factor plus the applicable commodity
charges.
