GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued)
transporting party making deliveries for Buyer's account. In the event there is
more than one Receipt Point under the affected Transportation Contract, and in the
absence of further information or until satisfactory further information is
received, the imbalance charge for Deficiency Gas shall be calculated as though the
imbalance occurred at each Receipt Point under the Transportation Contract in
proportion to the quantities of gas received by Seller at each Receipt Point. If on
any day Seller delivers for Buyer at a Delivery Point(s) quantities of gas which are
in excess of or deficient by the greater of 50 Dth or five percent (5%) of the
transportation quantities scheduled for Buyer, Seller shall have the right
forty-eight hours after notification to Buyer, or such lesser period of time as
reasonably required by Seller to protect the integrity of its system, to initiate
corrective action.
In the event Buyer fails to initiate the corrective action mutually agreed upon by
the Buyer and Seller's gas dispatchers within the period provided, Seller shall
charge Buyer $0.25 per Dth for any Receipts which are (a) in excess or deficient by
the greater of five percent or 50 Dth of Deliveries; provided, however, Seller shall
(i) retain any Receipts which are in excess of Deliveries by the greater of eight
percent or 50 Dth after such period has expired, at no cost and free and clear of
any adverse claims by any party or (ii) charge Buyer an amount equal to two times
the current estimated average cost of gas as reflected on Seller's effective Tariff
Sheet No. 6 for Receipts which are less than Deliveries by the greater of eight
percent or 50 Dth.
(b) Monthly Balancing: At least seven days prior to the end of each month Seller will
notify Buyer if it appears that Aggregate Receipts will be in excess of or deficient
by two percent (2%) or more of Aggregate Deliveries. In the event Buyer fails to
agree upon the appropriate corrective action to be implemented with Seller's gas
dispatchers within two business days after notification, and/or fails to implement
the corrective action agreed upon, Seller shall charge Buyer $0.25 per Dth for any
Receipts which are in excess or deficient by less than two percent of Deliveries;
provided, however, Seller shall (i) retain any overdeliveries in excess of two
percent of Deliveries remaining at the end of the month, at no cost and free and
clear of any adverse claims of any party or (ii) in the case of underdeliveries,
shall charge Buyer an amount equal to two times the current estimated average cost
of gas as reflected on Seller's effective Tariff Sheet No. 6, multiplied by the
underdeliveries of gas in excess of two percent of Deliveries. In the event there
is more than one Receipt Point under the affected Transportation Contract the
imbalance charge for underdeliveries at the Receipt Point(s) shall be calculated as
though the imbalance occurred at each Receipt Point under the Transportation
Contract in proportion to the quantities of gas received by Seller at each Receipt
Point. The appropriate corrective action shall, if required by Seller, include at
least forty-five (45) days for Buyer to eliminate the imbalance.
