11.5 Force Majeure.
(a) If either party shall fail to perform any obligation imposed
upon it by these General Terms and Conditions or by an
executed Service Agreement, and such failure shall be
caused, or materially contributed to, by: any acts of God;
strikes; lockouts; or other industrial disturbances; act of
public enemies; sabotage; wars; blockades; insurrections;
riots; epidemics; landslides; lightning; earthquakes;
floods; storms; fires; washouts; arrests and restraints of
rulers and peoples; civil disturbances; explosions; breakage
of or accidents to machinery or lines of pipe, materials or
equipment; the failure of any of Shipper's gas suppliers to
deliver gas, or failure of Shipper to receive gas, in
accordance with its obligations if such failure is
occasioned by an event or occurrence of the character
described in this Section as constituting force majeure; any
legislative, administrative or judicial action which has
been resisted in good faith by all reasonable legal means;
any act or omission whether of the kind herein enumerated or
otherwise not within the control of the party invoking this
Section and which by the exercise of due diligence such
party could not have prevented, or shall be occasioned by
the necessity for making repairs to or reconditioning
machinery, equipment, or pipelines, not resulting from the
fault or negligence of such party; such failure shall be
deemed not to be a breach of the obligation of such party,
but such party shall use reasonable diligence to put itself
in a position to carry out its obligations. Nothing
contained herein shall be construed to require either party
to settle a strike or lockout by acceding against its
judgment to the demands of the opposing parties.
(b) No such cause affecting the performance of either party
shall continue to relieve such party from its obligation
after the expiration of a reasonable period of time within
which by the use of due diligence such party could have
remedied the situation preventing its performance, nor shall
any such cause relieve either party from any obligation
unless such party shall give notice thereof in writing to
the other party with reasonable promptness; and like notice
shall be given upon termination of such cause.
