GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
penalties if such charges or penalties would not have been incurred but
for Shipper's/Balancing Party's compliance with an Action Alert or
Balancing Alert, including any preliminary action taken by
Shipper/Balancing Party in response to a warning issued by Transporter as
a precondition to an Action Alert. A Shipper/Balancing Party shall not
incur any penalties if the Action or Balancing Alert was necessitated
exclusively by Transporter's negligence or willful misconduct.
(i) Liability of Transporter: Transporter shall not be liable for any costs
incurred by any Shipper/Balancing Party in complying with an OFO.
Transporter shall not be responsible for any damages that result from any
interruption in Shipper's/Balancing Party's service that is a result of a
Shipper's/Balancing Party's failure to comply promptly and fully with an
OFO, and the noncomplying Shipper/Balancing Party shall indemnify
Transporter against any claims of responsibility. However, Transporter
shall use reasonable efforts to minimize any such costs or damages, and
nothing herein shall exempt Transporter from liability in the event of
Transporter's negligence or willful misconduct.
(j) Unilateral Action: In the event that (1) Shipper/Balancing Party does not
respond to an OFO, or (2) the actions taken thereunder are insufficient to
correct the system problem for which the OFO was issued, or (c) there is
insufficient time to carry out the procedures with respect to Action
Alerts or Balancing Alerts, Transporter may periodically take unilateral
action, including the curtailment of firm service, to maintain the
operational integrity of Transporter's system (or any portion thereof).
For purposes of this section, the operational integrity of Transporter's
system shall encompass the integrity of the physical system and the
preservation of physical assets and their performance, the overall
operating performance of the entire physical system as an entity (or any
portion thereof), and the maintenance (on a reliable and operationally
sound basis) of total system deliverability and the quality of gas
delivered.
IX. WARRANTY OF TITLE TO GAS
This Article shall apply to all transportation service unless otherwise provided in
the applicable Rate Schedule or service agreement. Shipper warrants for itself, its
successors and assigns, that it will have, at the time of delivery of gas hereunder,
good title and/or the good right to deliver the gas, that the gas it delivers
hereunder shall be free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and claims whatsoever,
that Shipper will indemnify Transporter and save Transporter harmless from all suits,
actions, debts, accounts, damages, costs, losses, and expenses arising from or out
of any adverse claims of any and all persons to said gas and/or to royalties, taxes,
license fees, or charges thereon that are applicable for such delivery of gas and
that Shipper will indemnify Transporter and save Transporter harmless from all taxes
