GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Section 30
30. PRE-GRANTED ABANDONMENT AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
30.1 General
Service performed by Gulf South for the Customer shall expire and
shall be automatically abandoned upon the expiration of the
service agreement's term under: (i) any firm transportation or
storage agreement except as provided hereunder, and (ii) any
interruptible transportation or interruptible storage agreement
regardless of term. Service under any firm transportation or
firm storage agreement with a term of 12 consecutive months of
service or greater or any multiple year seasonal firm
transportation or firm storage agreement shall be automatically
abandoned upon the expiration of the service agreement's term
unless service is continued pursuant to Section 30.2 or 30.3.
30.2 Right of First Refusal for NNS, NNS-SCO, FTS, FTS-SCO, FTS-SSO
(a) Applicability: Existing NNS, NNS-SCO, FTS, or FTS-SCO
service agreements with a term of at least 12 months and
with an effective date (date gas first flows) prior to
March 27, 2000, will retain the Right of First Refusal
("ROFR") when that service agreement expires. Any Customer
under an NNS, NNS-SCO, FTS, FTS-SCO, or FTS-SSO service
agreement with an effective date on or after March 27,
2000, with (i) a negotiated contractual ROFR, (ii) a term
of at least 12 consecutive months of service and the
Customer is paying the maximum applicable rate, or (iii) a
multiple year seasonal service agreement and the Customer
is paying the maximum applicable rate, shall have the right
to continue receiving service after the expiration of the
service agreement if, pursuant to this Section 30.2, it
matches the price and term offered for such service by any
other bidder. However, Gulf South shall not be required to
provide service at a discount from its applicable maximum
rate unless it agrees to such a discount. As part of a
contractual ROFR, Gulf South and the Customer may agree, at
the time the initial service agreement is signed, upon the
MDQ and rate that will be subject to the requirements of
this Section. ROFR rights may be assigned as a condition
of a permanent capacity release.
