GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
(c) Spot Price Index - Canada.
(1) Canadian Spot Price Index. The Spot Price Index for Canadian
Receipts shall be the Canadian Spot Price Index and will be
determined for a week by use of the published weekly spot prices
stated in U.S. Dollars in the following two publications: (i)
Btu Weekly under the heading "Btu's Natural Gas Spot Diary,
Canadian Export, Emerson, Weekly WACOG;" and (ii) Natural Gas
Week under the heading "Canadian Price Report, Delivered to Pipe
U.S.$, Manitoba, Emerson Border". The Canadian Spot Price Index
for Deficient Quantities will be the highest of the simple
weekly averages of the Emerson spot prices in the two
publications plus the variable costs on Viking Gas Transmission
Company ("Viking Variable Costs"). The Canadian Spot Price
Index for Excess Quantities will be the lowest of the simple
weekly averages of the Emerson spot prices in the two
publications plus the Viking Variable Costs. The Viking
Variable Costs shall be the sum of Viking's firm transportation
commodity rate, plus Viking's fuel at the average of the
published prices reported in the two publications, plus any
Viking surcharge(s) applicable to a five hundred (500) mile
haul.
(2) Material Changes or Cessation of Publication. If there is a
material change in the publication to be used in determining the
Canadian Spot Price Index or in the definition of how prices are
reported for deliveries to the interstate pipelines, then the
prices for such pipelines in such publication will no longer be
used in calculating the Index Price.
If, at any time, Btu Weekly or Natural Gas Week ceases
publication, then the Bloomberg Natural Gas Report shall be
substituted. If Bloomberg Natural Gas Report is used, the
average of the high and low quote stated in U.S. Dollars in the
map titled "Bloomberg Natural Gas/Petroleum Product Prices,"
under the heading "Emerson, Manitoba", plus the Viking Variable
Costs, shall be utilized. To the extent the reported prices
referenced above are not published for the Month required,
Transporter shall determine the Canadian Spot Price Index using
another similar publication selected by Transporter in its
reasonable judgment that is broadly published and widely accepted
within the gas industry as a reliable source for the quotation of
gas prices.
