6. ANNUAL CONTRACT QUANTITY AND MONTHLY BILLING QUANTITY
6.1 Annual Contract Quantity: The Annual Contract Quantity is a
quantity in Dth set forth in each executed Service Agreement and, as
adjusted for any capacity releases pursuant to Section 22 of the General
Terms and Conditions, represents the quantity of transportation service
which each Shipper may receive during each twelve-month period ending
September 30 without being subject to the Annual Overrun Charges
described in Section 3.5 herein. A Shipper's Annual Contract Quantity
initially may not be less than such Shipper's Storage Capacity specified
in the related firm storage Service Agreement initiated pursuant to any
storage service rate schedule contained in this Tariff (or in the tariff
of any third party providing storage services to Shipper) or such
Shipper's related entitlement to firm storage capacity as an owner in
the storage facility. Subsequent increases in such Shipper's Storage
Capacity or ownership rights to firm storage capacity will not require
corresponding changes to the related Annual Contract Quantity.
The Annual Contract Quantity may be increased at any time, subject
to availability of capacity, but may only be decreased due to permanent
releases of capacity pursuant to Section 22.5 of the General Terms and
Conditions or in connection with the filing of a general Section 4 rate
case by Transporter. Transporter shall provide Shippers with an
opportunity to make such an election prior to filing such rate
applications.
6.2 Monthly Billing Quantity: The Monthly Billing Quantity is a
quantity in Dth set forth in each executed Service Agreement and
represents the quantity used by Transporter to bill the Reservation
Charges specified in Section 3.1 to each Shipper. The Monthly Billing
Quantity for each Service Agreement shall be derived as follows: (i)
Shipper's Annual Contract Quantity is divided by Contract Demand,
resulting in Equivalent Days of Service, (ii) Equivalent Days of Service
is divided by 365 days to derive the Days of Service Factor, and (iii)
the Days of Service Factor is multiplied by Shipper's Contract Demand to
derive the Monthly Billing Quantity.
