TRANSPORTATION GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
33. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL UPON TERMINATION OF FIRM SHIPPER'S
SERVICE AGREEMENT (Continued)
33.9 Unless GTN and Shipper expressly agree otherwise in Shipper's
service agreement, a Shipper who has entered into an interim
service agreement pursuant to Paragraph 18.1(b) or Paragraph 32
of these Transportation General Terms and Conditions may not
elect to extend such interim service agreement pursuant to this
Paragraph 33.
33.10 A Shipper paying a discounted rate or a negotiated rate will not
have the Right of First Refusal, unless otherwise agreed to in
writing by GTN. GTN shall offer Rights of First Refusal on a not
unduly discriminatory basis.
33.11 Expansion Project Open Seasons: When an expansion open season
bidding process results in a fully-subscribed construction
project, the sizing of which could be affected by an original
capacity holder's plans regarding continuation of service,
Transporter may issue a separate notice prior to construction that
requires affected original capacity holders to elect either to
terminate or not to terminate their respective service agreements
as set forth below. Transporter shall issue such a separate notice
only to original capacity holders whose service agreements will
expire in the thirty six (36) months following issuance of the
separate notice.
An original capacity holder will have ten (10) business days from
the date of Transporter's notice to elect to (1) discontinue
service at the expiration of its service agreement or (2) extend
its service agreement by matching the term and rate, up to the
maximum historical rate that applies to the original capacity
holder, of the accepted expansion bid generating the lowest NPV.
Service agreements will be extended from the respective service
agreement termination dates.
