GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (continued)
(i) Notwithstanding any release hereunder, a Releasing Shipper shall
remain responsible for payment of the reservation charge for firm
transportation service released; provided, however, that
Transporter and any Shipper may, in connection with their
agreement to a Negotiated Rate under a firm transportation rate
schedule, agree upon Releasing Shipper payment obligations and
procedures and crediting mechanisms in the event of a capacity
release that vary from or are in addition to those set forth
herein and in Subsection (j) of this Section. The Releasing
Shipper will be billed for its full contractual reservation
charge liability to Transporter but shall simultaneously receive
a demand credit equaling the demand charges for which Transporter
has invoiced the Replacement Shipper. In addition, if the
commodity rate is discounted in accord with Section 11.11(e) of
this Article, then Transporter shall credit to the Releasing
Shipper's demand liability the difference between the commodity
rate billed the Replacement Shipper and the discounted IT rate
posted by Transporter. A demand rate for the purposes of this
Section consists of (i) the base demand rate, and (ii) all
applicable surcharges, provided that for releases made on a
volumetric basis, the demand charges shall equal (i) the daily
demand rate multiplied by the applicable volume plus (ii) all
applicable surcharges. A Releasing Shipper paying a discounted
rate shall be entitled to receive any revenues from the release
of its capacity that exceed the amount of the applicable
surcharges.
(j) Transporter shall invoice Replacement Shipper in accordance with
Article V of the General Terms and Conditions based upon the
rates, charges and surcharges incorporated into the
Transportation Service Agreement as a result of the release. The
reservation charges for the Replacement Shipper will include the
reservation rate at which the firm transportation service is
released including all adjustments subject to Sections 11.11(d)
and 11.11(i) above. The commodity charges for the Replacement
Shipper will include the maximum commodity rate including all
adjustments subject to Section 11.11(d) above; provided if the
commodity rate has been discounted in accord with Section
11.11(e) of this Article, Tennessee shall bill the Replacement
Shipper the discounted rate.
