GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
Section 14.1(d) (continued)
In the event either of these publications or specific postings contained
therein is discontinued, COMPANY will revise this Section 14.1(d) to
substitute another price index generally accepted in the natural gas
industry. Until COMPANY receives approval from the Commission
to use such substitute index, COMPANY will continue to calculate the
Index Price each month based on the remaining index.
(e) After each month, COMPANY will net all of the actual imbalances
accrued during the month under each agreement subject to netting under
Section 14.1(a) above to determine a net system imbalance for the
month. If the net system imbalance does not exceed either 200,000
Dth of gas owed to COMPANY or 100,000 Dth of gas owed to SHIPPERS, the
price to be paid by COMPANY or SHIPPER hereunder for each SHIPPER'S
respective Net Monthly Imbalance shall be 100% of the Index Price in
effect for that month regardless of each SHIPPER'S Net Imbalance
Percentage or whether SHIPPER has incurred a Minority Imbalance or a
Majority Imbalance.
(f) (1) On or before the ninth business day following the end of a
month, COMPANY shall post on SoNet Premier the Net Monthly Imbalance
accrued by a SHIPPER hereunder during the previous month
provided that said SHIPPER notifies COMPANY'S Customer Services
Department via SoNet Premier or by facsimile machine no later than the
last day of the Trading Period set forth below that SHIPPER
wants to have its Net Monthly Imbalance posted. SHIPPER may
also request within the same time period as provided above,
COMPANY to post only its imbalance position; i.e., that
SHIPPER is short or long during the month, to facilitate
trading. Notices to post imbalances received by COMPANY on or
before 11:45 a.m. shall be effective no later than 8:00 a.m.
CCT the next business day. COMPANY shall not be required to
post zero imbalances. SHIPPER may grant to COMPANY in writing
the right to post its Net Monthly Imbalance or imbalance
position on a standing basis; provided however, that if
SHIPPER decides it does not wish COMPANY to post its imbalance
or position for any month after it has issued a standing order
to COMPANY, then SHIPPER must advise COMPANY at least three
(3) days after the end of the month not to make the posting
and SHIPPER must reinstitute the standing order in writing
once it has revoked the standing order as provided above.
SHIPPERS shall have seventeen (17) business days after the end
of the month (Trading Period) within which to trade Net
Monthly Imbalances. Imbalance trades can only be withdrawn by
the SHIPPER initiating the trade prior to confirmation of the
trade by the confirming SHIPPER. Both SHIPPERS that agree to
trade all or part of their Net Monthly Imbalances must notify
COMPANY'S Customer Services Department in writing, by e-mail
or electronically via SoNet Premier on the form provided by
COMPANY by 5:00 p.m. Central Time on the last day of the
Trading Period ("Imbalance Trade Confirmation"). Each
Imbalance Trade Confirmation shall include the name of
