GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
parties to the gas service agreement between Transporter and Shipper or some
person or concern not a party thereto, not within the control of the party
claiming suspension, and which by the exercise of due diligence such party is
unable to prevent or overcome. A failure to settle or prevent any strike or
other controversy with employees or with anyone purporting or seeking to
represent employees shall not be considered to be a matter within the control
of the party claiming suspension.
2. Liabilities not relieved: Such causes or contingencies affecting the
performance of said gas transportation contract by either party, however, shall
not relieve it of liability in the event of its concurring negligence or in the
event of its failure to use due diligence to remedy the situation and remove the
