TRANSPORTATION GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

21. BALANCING (Continued)
21.2 Imbalance determinations as described above will be performed on a
daily basis and each daily occurrence will constitute a separate
incident. It is recognized and understood that more than one
penalty provision may apply to each imbalance incident.
Imbalance and overrun penalties will be based on the lesser of the
impact from operational or actual data. In the event that any
penalty would otherwise be applicable under these provisions as a
direct consequence of any action or failure to take action by GTN
or the failure of any facility under GTN's control, or an event of
force majeure as defined in these Transportation General Terms and
Conditions, said penalty shall not apply.
21.3 Interruptible Shippers will be notified whether penalties will apply
on the day their volumes are reduced. GTN shall waive non-critical
penalties for bumped shippers on the day of the bump. Waiver of
non-critical penalties shall not relieve the shipper from the
obligation to take corrective action to eliminate ongoing
imbalances.
21.4 The payment of a penalty in dollars pursuant to this Paragraph 21
shall under no circumstances be considered as giving any Shipper the
right to deliver or take overrun quantities.
21.5 Upon termination of a Service Agreement, Shipper shall have 60 days
to correct any remaining imbalances. After this period has
elapsed, GTN shall have the right to retain any positive imbalance
quantity without compensation to the Shipper. For negative
imbalance quantities, GTN shall charge an amount equal to one
hundred ten percent (110%) of the average of the daily midpoint
prices reported for Malin, Oregon as published in the daily price
survey by Platts Gas Daily for the month in which the imbalance is
cashed out.
