FIRM TRANSPORTATION SERVICE
3.11 Negotiated Rates
Shipper and Panhandle may agree, on a prospective basis,
to a Negotiated Rate with respect to the charges
identified in Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 herein which may
be less than, equal to or greater than the Maximum Rate;
shall not be less than the Minimum Rate; may be based on a
rate design other than straight fixed variable; and may
include a minimum quantity. Such Negotiated Rate shall be
set forth on Exhibit B of the executed Service Agreement
and on the currently effective Tariff Sheet No. 21. The
Maximum Rate shall be available to any Shipper that does
not choose a Negotiated Rate.
Shippers paying a Negotiated Rate which exceeds the
Maximum Rate will be considered to be paying the Maximum
Rate for purposes of scheduling, curtailment and
interruption, and calculating the economic value of a
request for unsubscribed firm capacity. In addition,
a Shipper that does not agree to pay any surcharges
will not be granted a scheduling preference that deems
such surcharges have been paid. Replacement Shippers are
not eligible for Negotiated Rates. Replacement Shippers
may bid or pay a rate greater than Maximum Rate if the
release of capacity is for a period of one year or less
and the release is to take effect on or before one year
from the date on which Panhandle is notified of the
release.
In the event that capacity subject to a Negotiated Rate
which is based on a rate design other than straight fixed
variable is released, Shipper and Panhandle may agree on
billing adjustments to the Releasing Shipper that may vary
from or are in addition to those set forth in Section 15.6
of the General Terms and Conditions in order to establish
the basis of accounting for revenues from a Replacement
Shipper as a means of preserving the economic bases of
the Negotiated Rate. Such payment obligation and
crediting mechanism for capacity release shall be set
forth on Exhibit B of the executed Service Agreement.
Nothing in this Section 3.11 shall authorize Panhandle or
Shipper to negotiate terms and conditions of service.
4. MONTHLY BILL
The Monthly Bill for service under this Rate Schedule shall be
equal to the Transmission Charge, the Gathering Charge, any
applicable overrun and balancing charges, plus all applicable
surcharges.
