3. RATE
The applicable rates for the purpose of computing charges under this Rate Schedule are set
forth in the currently effective Rate Sheets of this Tariff and are incorporated herein. For
all natural gas delivered to Shipper each month under this Rate Schedule, Shipper shall pay
Transporter each month the sum of the applicable Reservation Charge, Usage Charge and Overrun
Charge as set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, and 3.6.
3.1 (a) Reservation Charge: The applicable Reservation Charge (plus any applicable surcharges)
multiplied by the Monthly Demand Billing Units or MAXDTQ related to the Primary Receipt and
Delivery Points as set forth in Shipper's currently effective applicable FTS-1 Service
Agreement, times the number of days in the billing month.
(b) Additional Reservation Charge for Alternate Point(s): If a Shipper nominates and transports
using Alternate Receipt Point(s) or Alternate Delivery Point(s) that are outside the Shipper's
Primary Path, then Shipper will pay an additional Reservation Charge, not to exceed the
maximum applicable tariff rate, as negotiated between Shipper and Transporter, applicable to
such service outside the Primary Path. Such rate will apply on a daily basis for as long as
any alternate point outside the Primary Path is utilized.

For purposes of this Section 3.2, the following definitions shall apply:

to, work such as inspections, calibrations, water washing, and annual compressor driver
maintenance.
"Emergency Maintenance" shall mean unanticipated or unplanned maintenance on the pipeline

A "Force Majeure" event shall be as set forth in Section 11.1 of the General Terms and
Conditions of this Tariff.
"Tariff Months" shall mean the months of December, January, February, July and August. "Non-

(a) Planned Maintenance in Tariff Months. Transporter shall attempt to plan maintenance of its
facilities during the Non-Tariff Months. If due to Planned Maintenance Transporter fails to
schedule the quantities of gas that have been nominated and confirmed then the Reservation
Charge shall be reduced. The reduction shall be calculated based upon the ratio of (i) the
quantities of gas that had been nominated and confirmed, but not scheduled during the month to
(ii) the total quantities of gas nominated and confirmed during the month, times (iii) the
total Reservation Charge owed Transporter for that month for such nominated and confirmed
quantities.
