5. RATES AND CHARGES (Continued)

5.4 Incidental Charges

In addition to the charges pursuant to Subsections 5.2 and 5.3 of this Rate

Schedule, Company shall charge Shipper an amount to reimburse Company for any

filing or similar fees that have not been previously paid by Shipper that

Company incurs in establishing or rendering service. Company shall not use the

amounts so collected (as either costs or revenues) in establishing its general

system rates.

5.5 Authorized Overrun Charge

If Shipper, upon receiving the advance approval of Company, should on any day

take under this Rate Schedule a quantity of natural gas in excess of Shipper's

Transportation Quantity, then such excess quantity shall constitute authorized

overrun quantities. All Shipper requests for Authorized Overruns must be

nominated through the System. If Company has complete and unrestricted control

of gas deliveries to Shipper, then Shipper shall be deemed to have received the

advance approval of Company. For all Authorized Overrun gas quantities, the

Shipper shall pay Company the applicable Maximum Commodity Rate per Dekatherm

under this Rate Schedule, unless the parties mutually agree otherwise.

5.6 Imbalance Charge

In addition to the charges in Subsections 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5, if Shipper

tenders or takes gas at a point not covered by an Operational Balancing

Agreement, then, Company shall charge Shipper any applicable charges provided

in Rate Schedules LMS-MA or LMS-PA, as applicable and Subsection 3.9 of the

General Terms and Conditions specified in Volume I of Company's Tariff.

5.7 Notwithstanding any provision of Company's effective FERC Gas Tariff to the

contrary, Company and Shipper may mutually agree in writing to rates, rate

components, charges or credits for service under this Rate Schedule that differ

from those rates, rate components, charges or credits that are otherwise

prescribed, required, established or imposed by this Rate Schedule or by any

other applicable provision of Company's effective FERC Gas Tariff. If Company

agrees to such differing rates, rate components, charges or credits

("Negotiated Rates"), then the Negotiated Rate(s) shall be effective only for

the period agreed upon by Company. During such period, the Negotiated Rate

shall govern and apply to the Shipper's service and the otherwise applicable

rate, rate component, charge or credit which the parties have agreed to replace

with the Negotiated Rate, shall not apply to, or be available to, the Shipper.

At the end of such period, the otherwise applicable maximum rates or charges

shall govern the service provided to Shipper. Only those rates, rate

components, charges or credits identified by Company and Shipper in writing as

being superseded by a Negotiated Rate shall be ineffective during the period

that the Negotiated Rate is effective; all other rates, rate components,

charges or credits prescribed, required, established or imposed by this Rate

Schedule or Company's Tariff shall remain in effect. Company shall make any

filings at the FERC necessary to effectuate a Negotiated Rate.
