GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Section 5
(Continued)
(4) Gulf South has the right to seek security to
cover the value of any imbalance owed Gulf South
by a non-creditworthy Customer. Such imbalances
shall be valued at the Index "Sell" Price
determined in accordance with the provisions of
Section 20 hereof. Such determination shall be
based upon the weekly prices that are available
at the time the imbalance occurred.
Furthermore, Gulf South has the right to seek
security to cover the estimated value of a
future monthly imbalance for non-creditworthy
Customers as follows: For a non-creditworthy
new Customer, a security amount equal to 10% of
such Customer's estimated monthly usage
multiplied by the Estimated Imbalance Rate as
described below. This security determination
for a non-creditworthy, new Customer shall be
used for the first seven months of service to
establish a historical record. Thereafter,
security for such Customer will be determined as
specified for a non-creditworthy existing
Customer. For a non-creditworthy existing
Customer, a security amount equal to such
Customer's largest monthly imbalance owed to
Gulf South over the most recent 12 month period
multiplied by the Estimated Imbalance Rate. The
term "Estimated Imbalance Rate" shall equal the
average of the NYMEX future prices for the
available 12 month period as such prices close
on the day the Estimated Imbalance Rate is
determined.
(b) Should a non-creditworthy Customer desire to earn interest
on cash prepayments required pursuant to the terms and
conditions hereof, a non-creditworthy Customer should
provide written notice to Gulf South of its desire to earn
interest on its cash prepayments. Gulf South will pay
interest on the amount of cash received, excluding any
Advance Payment as described in Section 5.3(c) below. The
interest payable shall be calculated based upon the actual
rate earned or the overnight rate available to Gulf South
for any time period where such security funds are on
deposit.
