OPERATOR BALANCING AGREEMENT
FORM OF AGREEMENT
(continued)
5. Operational Imbalances shall be indexed to a price (hereinafter referred to as the "Monthly Index
Price" or "MIP") which shall be calculated as follows, as may be amended from time to time:
(a) Transporter shall first determine any Operational Imbalance quantity for each month on
a dekatherm basis. Transporter shall then determine a dollar equivalent utilizing the
dekatherm quantity and the established MIP ("Dollar Valued Operational Imbalance").
(b) For Dollar-Valued Operational Imbalances remaining from previous month(s), the Dollar-
Valued Operational Imbalance remaining from the previous month(s) will be added to the
Dollar-Valued Operational Imbalance amount for the Current Month and divided by the
current month's MIP to get the volume applicable to the Operation Imbalance for the
OBA.
(c) The MIP for each month shall equal the average of the daily prices for that month as
reported in Gas Daily's table entitled "DAILY PRICE SURVEY" for delivery into
Transporter's mainline system ____________________. (If a range of prices is shown
for any particular day, the midpoint of such range shall represent that day's price at
a particular location.) If, for any reason, Gas Daily ceases to be available for a
particular month, the MIP for that month will equal the average of the applicable
daily prices for the above-described location for the applicable month as reported in
any other generally accepted available industry publication chosen by Transporter.
(d) Prices used to calculate the MIP will be prices quoted "into the mainline" in order to
eliminate inconsistencies due to varying gathering and treating charges. Transporter
will post the MIP for each month on its Internet Website within one (1) business day
following the end of the applicable month.
