GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
(c) Termination of Long-Term Service Agreements; Exercise of Right of
First Refusal.
(1)(a) If Shipper's long-term Service Agreement is at the
applicable Recourse Rate for that service and does not extend according
to its terms or otherwise continue as described at Section 4.1(b) above,
or Shipper declines to extend the contract under the provisions
described at Section 4.1(b) above, Shipper may continue service upon
termination of that Service Agreement by (i) agreeing to match the
highest value bid offered to Transporter for Shipper's firm service, or
any portion (volume but not geographic portion) thereof, through the
bidding process described at Section 4.2 below, and (ii) executing a new
Service Agreement incorporating the new rate and term. This right of
first refusal shall apply only to (1) firm Service Agreements with a
term of 12 or more consecutive months of service at the applicable
Recourse Rate for that service, or (2) firm multi-year seasonal Service
Agreements at the applicable Recourse Rate for that service. A "firm
multi-year seasonal Service Agreement" as used in this Section 4 is a
firm Service Agreement that has a multi-year term but does not provide
for 12 consecutive months of service.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.1(c)(1)(a),
Columbia and its Shippers may mutually agree, on a not unduly
discriminatory basis, to include in discount rate or negotiated rate
firm Service Agreements that bear either a multi-year seasonal term or a
term of 12 or more consecutive months of service, a contractual right of
first refusal equivalent to the right of first refusal set forth from
time to time in this Section 4.
