GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

(Continued)

22.10 CAPACITY RELEASE TRANSACTIONS EXEMPT FROM BIDDING (Continued)

Transporter shall only be obligated to accept nominations pursuant to

the service contemplated by this Section 22.3(a) after Releasing Shipper

has posted the release to Transporter's Designated Site.

(b) For a release involving a Prearranged Replacement Shipper where

the rate is equal to the maximum posted tariff rate applicable to

capacity releases, and the term is equal to the term described by the

Releasing Shipper but is greater than one year in any event, the

Prearranged Replacement Shipper shall be awarded the released capacity

without the necessity of waiting for competing bids to be submitted.

However, Transporter shall be notified of the release by the Releasing

Shipper and the notification shall contain the same information as

identified in Section 22.3. Transporter shall post a notice of the

occurrence of the release on its Designated Site.

(c) For a release involving a Prearranged Replacement Shipper pursuant

to an AMA or pursuant to a state-regulated retail access program, the

Prearranged Replacement Shipper shall be awarded the released capacity

without the necessity of waiting for competing bids to be submitted.

However, Transporter shall be notified of the release by the Releasing

Shipper and the notification shall contain the same information as

identified in Section 22.3. Transporter shall post a notice of the

occurrence of the release on its Designated Site.

22.11 RECALL OF RELEASED CAPACITY.

Releasing Shippers may, to the extent permitted as a condition of the capacity

release, recall released capacity. For the recall notification provided to

Transporter, the contract demand recalled should be expressed in terms of

total released capacity entitlements. In the event a capacity recall

transaction is not effective prior to the Evening Nomination cycle applicable

to the initial day of the capacity recall, the contract demand recalled may be

modified for the initial day of the recall to prevent such contract demand

from exceeding two-thirds of the contract demand recalled if the recall

precedes the Intraday 1 nomination cycle or one-half of the contract demand

recalled if the recall precedes only the Intraday 2 nomination cycle.
