GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
Prior to bidding on any Offer to Release Capacity, a
bidder must prequalify by satisfying the creditworthiness
requirements in Subsection 12.5 and executing a Form of
Service Agreement for Firm Transportation Service. VGS
shall date and time stamp all bids as they are received.
VGS will post the relevant terms of all bids, other than the
name of the bidder, upon receipt. A separate bid is
required for each separate Releasing Shipper's Offer. The
price bid on any Offer to Release Capacity must be
consistent with the form requested by the Releasing Shipper,
and may be submitted on a reservation rate or percentage
basis or on a volumetric basis calculated at the 100% load
factor derivative of the Maximum Reservation Rate, and may
contain a minimum volumetric commitment. Releases of capacity
for one (1) year or less, if the release is to take effect on or
before one(1) year from the date on which VGS is notified of the
release, may be in excess of the maximum tariff rate. All other
releases with terms of one (1) year or less or releases with
terms greater than one (1) year are capped at the maximum tariff
rate. Any volumetric bids should only relate to the reservation
rate, since the usage rate used to determine the usage charges
and any other volumetric charges will be billed by VGS directly
to the Replacement Shipper and will not be considered in the
determination of the best bid. All bids on Temporary Releases of
capacity must be for the specified Receipt and Delivery Points
set forth in the Releasing Shipper's offer. Any Prequalified
bidder submitting a bid for all or part of any released capacity
shall provide the following information:
a. Bidder's name, address, phone number, fax
number, and contact person;
b. The offer under which the capacity is
available;
c. The requested Primary Receipt Point(s)
and the Primary Delivery Point and the
quantity (in Dth per day) for each point;
