be amortized over a mutually agreeable period not to extend beyond the primary
contract term of the Service Agreement between Freebird and Shipper. Carrying
charges shall be computed utilizing interest factors acceptable to both
Freebird and Shipper.
25.2 Freebird may waive from time to time, at its discretion, all or a portion
of the facility cost reimbursement requirement set forth in Section 25.1 for
Rate Schedule FSS, ISS, IPS and ILS if the Shipper provides Freebird with
adequate assurances of storage quantities to make construction of the
facilities economical to Freebird. All requests for waiver shall be handled
by Freebird in a manner which is not unduly discriminatory. For purposes of
determining whether a project is economical, Freebird will evaluate projects
on the basis of various economic criteria, which will include the
estimated storage quantities, cost of the facilities, operating and
maintenance as well as administrative and general expenses attributable to the
facilities, the revenue Freebird estimates will be generated as a result of
such construction, and the availability of capital funds on terms and
conditions acceptable to Freebird. In estimating the revenues to be
generated, Freebird will evaluate the existence of capacity limitations
downstream of the facilities, the marketability of the capacity, the
Interruptible versus the Firm nature of the service, and other similar factors
which impact whether the available capacity will actually be utilized.
26. OFF-SYSTEM PIPELINE CAPACITY
From time to time, consistent with FERC policy, Freebird may enter into
transportation and/or storage agreements with other interstate or intrastate
pipeline companies ("off-system pipeline"). In the event that Freebird
acquires capacity on an off-system pipeline, Freebird will use such capacity
for operational reasons to transport gas which will not physically or
contractually enter its storage facility and will only render service to
Shippers on the acquired capacity pursuant to Freebird’s FERC Gas Tariff and
subject to Commission-approved rates, as such tariff and rates may change from
time to time. For purposes of transactions entered into subject to this
Section 2, the "shipper must have title" requirement is waived.
