TRADING PARTNER AGREEMENT
for the Electronic Data Interchange
of Information Over the Public Internet
(Continued)
Section 1. Prerequisites. (Continued)
1.4. Security Procedures. Each party, in its sole discretion and
expense, shall use and provide for the requisite levels of security which
are reasonably sufficient to ensure that all transmissions of Documents are
authorized by the parties and to protect their business records and data
from improper access. At a minimum, the parties shall provide and use those
security measures specified herein, in the GISB standards as adopted by the
FERC, or as may be agreed upon by the parties as set forth in the Appendix.
1.5. Keys. When the parties are utilizing the Internet electronic
delivery mechanism as herein contemplated, each party shall maintain a
Pretty Good Privacy ("PGP") "public key," (an encryption algorithm used to
facilitate private electronic communication) which may be changed from time
to time in accordance with this Agreement or as may be set forth in the
Appendix. Each party shall provide to the other party its PGP public key by
either (a) a certified or receipted mail service using a diskette with the
public key contained in an ASCII text file, or (b) an electronic simple mail
transfer protocol (smtp) mail message with the public key contained in the
body. Under either option above, the public key shall be verified by the
party to whom it is sent by validating the fingerprint of the public key
which may be accomplished via telephone, fax, or other comparably reliable
means. If a party desires to change its public key, it shall provide at
least five business days prior notice thereof to the other party; provided
that under an emergency situation, a prior written notice of at least 24
hours shall be given.
1.6. Electronic Signatures. Each party shall adopt as its signature
the PGP private key, where required by the Standards or otherwise agreed to
by the parties, in the Document transmitted by such party ("Signature
Code(s)"). Such Signature Codes(s) shall be specified in the Appendix.
Each party agrees that the Signature Code(s) of such party affixed to or
contained in any transmitted Document shall be sufficient to verify that
such party originated the Document. Neither party shall disclose to any
unauthorized person the Signature Code(s) of the other party.
