9. POSSESSION OF GAS
(a) Under Seller's Sales Rate Schedules
As between the parties hereto, Seller shall be deemed to be in control and possession
of the natural gas sold to Buyer until it shall have been delivered to or for the
account of Buyer at the point or points of delivery, after which Buyer shall be deemed
to be in control and possession thereof. The determination hereof of Seller's control
and possession shall under no circumstances operate to deny Seller any claim against a
Buyer or Buyers which overruns its contract entitlement on any day. Buyer shall have
no responsibility with respect to any natural gas deliverable until it is delivered to
or for the account of Buyer at the delivery point(s) (at which point title shall
pass), or on account of anything which may be done, happen or arise with respect to
such gas before such delivery, and Seller shall have no responsibility with respect to
such gas after its delivery to or for the account of Buyer or on account of anything
which may be done, happen or arise with respect to such gas after such delivery.
(b) Under Seller's Transportation and Storage Rate Schedules
After Buyer delivers or causes gas to be delivered to Seller at the Point(s) of
Receipt, Seller shall be deemed to be in control and possession of the gas until it is
redelivered to Buyer or for the account of Buyer at the Point(s) of Delivery. The
determination hereof of Seller's control and possession shall under no circumstances
operate to deny Seller any claim against a Buyer or Buyers which overruns its contract
entitlement on any day. Buyer shall have no responsibility with respect to any gas
deliverable by Seller or on account of anything which may be done, happen or arise
with respect to such gas until Seller redelivers such gas to Buyer or for the account
of Buyer. Except as provided in Section 9(a), Seller shall have no responsibility
with respect to such gas before Buyer delivers such gas to Seller or after Seller
redelivers such gas to Buyer or for the account of Buyer, or on account of anything
which may be done, happen or arise with respect to such gas before such delivery or
after such redelivery.
10. WARRANTY OF TITLE TO GAS
Seller agrees that it will and it hereby does warrant for itself, its successors and assigns,
that at the point of sale to Buyer, it will have good title to all natural gas sold by it to
Buyer, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and claims whatsoever, including without
limitation of the foregoing, any liens, encumbrances or claims of any of its affiliates for
use of their property in connection with Seller's obligations and performances under the
service agreement, that it will at such time of delivery have good right and title to sell
said gas as aforesaid, that it will indemnify Buyer and save it harmless from any and all
suits, actions, debts, accounts, damages, costs, losses and expenses arising from or out of
adverse claims of any or all persons to said gas, or from or out of any and all royalties,
taxes, license fees or charges on or with respect to said gas, and that it will indemnify
Buyer and save it harmless from all taxes and assessments which may be levied and assessed
upon or with respect to the sale of said gas to Buyer and which, under the terms of the
service agreement, are payable by Seller. In the event any adverse claim of any character
whatsoever is asserted in respect of any of said gas, the Buyer, until such claim has been
finally determined, may retain the purchase price thereof up to the amount of such claim,
without the payment of interest thereon, as security for the performance of Seller's
obligations with respect to such claim, or until Seller shall have furnished to Buyer a bond
in an amount and with sureties satisfactory to Buyer, conditioned for the protection of Buyer
with respect to such claim.
