reports or other filings with regulatory agencies which discuss Shipper's
financial status; a list of all corporate affiliates, parent companies and
subsidiaries; and any reports from credit reporting and bond rating agencies
which are available. Pipeline shall determine the acceptability of the
Shipper's overall financial condition. If audited financial statements are
not available, then Shipper’s Chief Financial Officer should provide
attestation that the information shown in the unaudited statement is true,
correct and a fair representation of the Shipper’s financial condition.
(b) Shipper shall provide a bank reference and at least two trade
references. The results of reference checks and any credit reports submitted
in (a) above must show that Shipper's obligations are being paid on a prompt
basis.
(c) Shipper shall confirm in writing that Shipper is not operating under any
chapter of the bankruptcy laws and is not subject to liquidation or debt
reduction procedures under state laws, such as an assignment for the benefit
of creditors, or any informal creditors' committee agreement. An exception
can be made for a Shipper who is a debtor in possession operating under
Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Act but only with adequate assurance that
the service billing will be paid promptly as a cost of administration under
the federal court's jurisdiction.
