31. DISCOUNTING
From time to time Shipper and Transporter may agree in writing on
a level of discount of the otherwise applicable rates and
charges in addition to a basic discount from the stated maximum
rates. For example, Transporter may provide a specific
discounted rate:
(1) to certain specified quantities under the Service Agreement;
(2) if specified quantity levels are actually achieved or with
respect to quantities below a specified level;
(3) to production reserves committed by the Shipper;
(4) during specified time periods;
(5) to points of receipt, points of delivery, supply areas,
transportation paths or defined geographical areas;
(6) in a specified relationship to the quantities actually
transported (i.e., that the rates shall be adjusted in a
specified relationship to quantities actually transported);
(7) based on published index prices for specific receipt or
delivery points or other agreed upon pricing reference points
for price determination or based on any other formula (Such
discounted rate may be based on the published index price point
differential or arrived at by formula. Any Service Agreement
containing such a discount will identify what rate component is
discounted. To the extent the firm reservation charge is
discounted, the index price differential or rate formula shall
be calculated to state a rate per unit of MAXDTQ.); or
(8) to provide that if one rate component which was equal to or
within the applicable maximum and minimum rate at the time
the discount agreement was executed subsequently exceeds the
applicable maximum rate or is below the applicable minimum
rate due to a change in Transporter's maximum rates and/or
minimum rates, so that such rate component must be adjusted
downward or upward to equal the new applicable maximum or
minimum rate, then other rate components may be adjusted
upward or downward to achieve the agreed-upon overall rate,
so long as none of the resulting rate components exceed the
maximum rate or are below the minimum rate applicable to the
rate component. Such changes to rate components shall be
applied prospectively, commencing with the date a Commission
order accepts revised tariff sheets. However, nothing
contained herein shall be construed to alter a refund
obligation under applicable law for any period during which
rates which had been charged under a discount agreement
exceeded rates which ultimately are found to be just and
reasonable.
In all circumstances the discounted rate shall be between the
maximum rate and the minimum rate applicable to the service
provided.
