GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (continued)
11.1 Releasing Shipper's Request for Assignment
A Releasing Shipper that desires to release its rights to service on a
basis which does not qualify for an exemption from prior posting pursuant
to Section 11.3, may post directly on PASSKEY a Release Request
containing the information set forth below. If Releasing Shipper desires
to establish a minimum rate for acceptable bids, then Releasing Shipper
shall either include such minimum rate in its Release Request or include
in its Release Request a statement that the minimum rate has been
provided to Transporter. If Releasing Shipper elects to provide the
minimum rate solely to Transporter, then Transporter shall not reveal
such rate until after the awarding of the subject capacity and the
execution of a service agreement between Transporter and Replacement
Shipper. At such time Transporter will post the minimum rate under the
release on PASSKEY.
a) Releasing Shipper's name and Transportation Service Agreement
number;
b) the Transportation Quantity to be released (including any minimum
acceptable level);
c) the proposed commencement date and term of the release (including
any minimum acceptable term);
d) the primary receipt points and primary delivery points for the
released service and the amount of the firm capacity to be released
at each such point (the total receipt point capacity released shall
equal the total delivery point capacity released, which shall equal
the Transportation Quantity released);
e) the reservation and/or usage rate(s) and all other applicable
rate(s), charges and surcharges for the released service; provided,
however, the rate(s) charged for a release of capacity for more than
one (1) year may not exceed the applicable maximum rate(s);
f) whether the transportation rights are to be subject to recall or
reput in accord with Section 11.11(g), and if so, the specific
conditions for recall or reput of the capacity;
g) whether contingent bids will be accepted for evaluation and, if so,
whether the contingency can extend beyond the Bidding Period; if the
contingency may extend beyond the Bidding Period, whether, and for
what time period, the next highest bidder will be obligated to
acquire the capacity should the winning contingent bidder exercise
its option not to take the capacity;
h) whether the release is contingent on Releasing Shipper's ability to
release associated capacity on another pipeline and, if so, all
conditions associated with such contingency;
