TRANSPORTATION AGREEMENT
Section B. In accordance with the provisions hereinabove set forth,
Southern shall be entitled to retain at no cost to Southern a percentage of the
quantity of gas delivered by ARCO and accepted by Southern hereunder at the
Delivery Point as gas which shall be deemed to have been used as compressor
fuel and company-use gas in the performance of the services provided for
hereunder. The percentage of the quantity of gas delivered hereunder to be
retained for such fuel and company-use purposes shall initially be one
percent (1%).
It is understood and agreed, however, that Southern shall have the
right, without any further agreement by ARCO, to adjust the percentage of gas
retained for fuel and company-use purposes, from time to time, to reflect the
actual operating experience of Southern and/or any change to the methodology
used by Southern to calculate the amount of fuel and company-use gas utilized
on its system, provided, however, that in no event shall the quantity of gas
retained as fuel and company-use gas exceed two (2) percent without ARCO's
prior written approval. Upon written request, Southern shall furnish to ARCO
information to support any such adjustment to the percentage of compressor fuel
and company-use gas retained hereunder. 1/
Section C. In addition to the limitations set forth in Section A of this
ARTICLE II, it is recognized that the services performed hereunder sh all be on
an interruptible basis, and all transportation services shall be conditioned
upon the availability of capacity sufficient for Southern to perform the
services without detriment or disadvantage to Southern's obligations to its
customers who are dependent on its general system supply, and shall be further
subject, in Southern's sole discretion acting in good faith, to the
availability of excess capacity in Southern's pipeline facilities and to the
operating conditions and system requirements of Southern.
Section D. In the event that ARCO has, from time to time, requirements
for quantities of gas in excess of 3,000 MMBtu per day at the Chandeleur Sound
EOR Project and has excess quantities of gas available for delivery to Southern
at the Delivery Point, ARCO may request Southern to transport the excess gas,
and Southern may accept or refuse delivery of all or any part of such gas. In
the event Southern agrees to accept delivery of any such excess gas, that gas
will be transported on the same basis as the Transportation Quantity and in
accordance with and subject to all the terms and conditions hereof.
Section E. It is recognized that because of dispatching and other
variations, certain minor imbalances may occur in the transportation services
rendered hereunder between the quantity of gas delivered by ARCO hereunder for
transportation and the quantity of gas redelivered by Southern. Such
imbalances shall be corrected, insofar as practicable, during the following
month or as soon as possible thereafter. All gas delivered or redelivered
hereunder on each day shall be delivered at rates as constant as
practicable throughout such day. It is understood and agreed that there will
