26. SETTLEMENT DIRECT BILL SURCHARGE (Continued)
determined using the methods specified in Section 154.501(d)
of the Commission's Regulations.
(C) Any Buyer or affected Shipper may, at any time, pay by
Electronic Funds Transfer to a designated bank account
established by Trunkline for invoiced amounts equal to or
greater than $50,000 all or a portion of its unpaid share of
the charges for which it is responsible pursuant to this
Section 26, and in such event, its obligation for carrying
charges shall be applicable to amounts unpaid. For invoiced
amounts less than $50,000, Buyer or affected Shipper may pay
by check to Trunkline's designated Post Office box or, at
Buyer's or affected Shipper's election, by Electronic Funds
Transfer to Trunkline's designated bank account.
(D) Notwithstanding an election by a Buyer or affected Shipper
pursuant to Section 26.5(B) hereof, if Buyer's or affected
Shipper's contract terminates during the period in which such
payments are to be made, Trunkline shall invoice Buyer or
affected Shipper for the then current unpaid balance due and
all of such amounts shall become due and payable not later
than one day prior to the expiration of Buyer's or affected
Shipper's contract. Upon receipt of such invoice, Buyer or
affected Shipper may elect to continue making payments
according to its prior elections by continuing to do so.
Such action shall constitute Buyer's or affected Shipper's
irrevocable agreement to pay such sums without condition or
qualification. For purposes hereof, any conversion of sales
customers under the Former Tariff shall not constitute a
contract termination and the amounts shown on Tariff Sheet
Nos. 25 and 26 shall apply to Shipper under the contract as
converted.
(E) For purposes of Section 26.5(D), the term "without condition
or qualification" shall mean Buyer's or affected Shipper's
irrevocable disavowal of any attempt to avoid payment of the
remaining balance and applicable carrying charges, after
ceasing the contractual relationship and to continue to make
payments pursuant to the payment schedule. The term amounts
to an irrevocable promise to pay the full allocated share.
