RATE SCHEDULE FT-GS
SMALL CUSTOMER TRANSPORTATION SERVICE (continued)
2.4 Unless Shipper has elected the True-Up Payment Option as specified in Section 2.5
hereof, Transporter shall not schedule and Shipper shall not receive gas for
ultimate use in a portion of Shipper's distribution system served by Shipper's FT-
GS Delivery Point(s) utilizing any other Rate Schedule or any third party (except
to effectuate deliveries hereunder), unless and until Transporter has scheduled
(or allocated from Shipper's FS Service) the Transportation Quantity as set forth
in Shipper's FT-GS Transportation Service Agreement(s) attributable to that
portion of Shipper's distribution system. This restriction shall not apply to
Shipper's receiving gas withdrawn from third party storage, provided that such gas
was injected by Shipper in compliance with this Section 2.4; provided, further,
this restriction shall not apply to service for ultimate use by designated end
users in any portion of Shipper's distribution system served by Shipper's Delivery
Point(s); provided that separate meters are in place downstream of Shipper's
Delivery Point(s) verifying delivery of such quantities to such designated end
users. Upon the request of Transporter, Shipper shall provide a statement
verifying compliance with this Section 2.4 provision for the prior calendar year.
2.5 True-up Payment Option: Any Shipper desiring to receive IT service, released
capacity or transportation from third party pipelines, may do so on an
unrestricted basis if such Shipper:
(a) notifies Transporter of its election of this True-Up Payment Option no later
than December 1 of any year to be effective on January 1 of the following
year; and
(b) agrees to an annual FT-GS revenue responsibility based on the established
FT-GS billing determinants. If payments for gas transported under this
Rate Schedule fall short of Shipper's annual FT-GS revenue responsibility of
any year in which Shipper has elected this True-Up Payment Option ("True-Up
Payment Option Year"), Transporter shall bill Shipper for the shortfall, if
any, between payments made during the year and Shipper's revenue
responsibility.
On December 1 of the True-Up Payment Option Year, Transporter shall determine the
shortfall between payments under Rate Schedule FT-GS and Shipper's FT-GS revenue
responsibility by adding actual payments received and forecasted payments for the
remainder of the True-Up Payment Option Year, then subtracting the total from
Shipper's FT-GS revenue responsibility. On or before December 15 of the True-Up
Payment Option Year, Transporter shall bill Shipper for any shortfall. Upon
receipt of the actual payments for the remainder of the True-Up Payment Option
Year, Transporter shall credit or bill Shipper for the difference, if appropriate.
2.6 Transporter shall not be required to install, operate or maintain any additional
facilities in order to provide transportation service under this Rate Schedule.
