12. Summer Season Provisions
During the Summer Season, Texas Gas will deliver to Customer up to Customer's
Contract Demand and Customer's Summer Quantity Entitlement-SNS as set forth below.
12.1 Customer may nominate into Texas Gas' system a quantity of gas up to the
Contract Demand.
12.2 In addition to the Nominated Daily Quantity-SNS actually scheduled by Customer,
Texas Gas will adjust deliveries from or injections into storage from Customer's
available Unnominated Daily Quantity to meet Customer's requirements up to
Customer's Contract Demand-SNS. Although a formal nomination is not required
to receive Customer's available Unnominated Daily Quantity-SNS, Customer
shall provide operational notice to Texas Gas of its anticipated needs.
12.3 Texas Gas shall maintain an account reflecting the net amount of Unnominated
Daily Quantity-SNS actually utilized by Customer, which net amount shall not
exceed the Maximum Unnominated Quantity-SNS. The initial balance in this
account shall be zero and the closing balance at the earlier of the end of
the summer season or the end of the Contract term, shall also be zero.
Subject to its actual physical requirements, Customer shall use its best
efforts to maintain, as near as practicable, an account balance of zero
during the Summer Season. Texas Gas may give notice requiring a Customer to
return its account balance to zero (i) within 24 hours if the balance is
equal to or less than the Customer's daily Contract Demand, (ii) within 48
hours if the balance exceeds the Customer's daily Contract Demand but is
equal to or is less than twice the Customer's daily Contract Demand or (iii)
within 72 hours if the balance exceeds twice the Customer's Contract Demand.
If the Customer fails to return its account balance to zero consistent with
such notice, the Customer shall pay a penalty of up to $50 per MMBtu per day
for each MMBtu remaining out of balance.
12.4 During the Summer Season, Texas Gas will also inject gas into storage on a best
efforts basis as part of SNS service. Although such injections will be done on a
best efforts basis, Texas Gas will be presumed, unless it gives notice to the
contrary, to be able to inject into storage such quantities of gas as to take into
account routine variations in no-notice deliveries. If Texas Gas is unable to
make such best efforts injections, it will advise Customer by posting on its
Internet Website. However, no presumption will exist for non-routine situations
(e.g. sustained injections of more than three days) and, in such non-routine
situations, Customer must give 24 hours advance written notice to Texas Gas of
quantities it desires to inject into
