19. BILLING AND PAYMENT
19.1. Transporter shall render invoices on or before the tenth day of each month
for all Gas delivered in the preceding monthly billing period. Invoices may
be rendered to Shipper by mail, electronically or facsimile. When
information necessary for billing purposes is in the control of Shipper,
such information shall be delivered to Transporter by Shipper on or before
the fifth day of the month following the month in which service was
provided.
19.2. Shipper shall pay to Transporter at its designated office on or before the
fifteenth day of each month for the Gas delivered by Transporter during the
preceding month and invoices by Transporter; provided, however, Shipper’s
payment shall never be due until ten (10) days from the postmark, e-mail
notification or facsimile confirmation date of Transporter’s invoice.
19.3. Should Shipper fail to pay all of the amount of any invoice as herein
provided when such amount is due, Shipper shall pay a Charge for Late
Payment. Such Charge for Late Payment shall be determined by multiplying
(a) the unpaid portion of the invoice, by (b) the ratio of the number of
days from the due date to the date of actual payment to 365, and by (c) the
interest rate determined in accordance with Section 154.501(d) of the
Commission’s regulations. If such failure to pay continues for thirty (30)
days after payment is due, Transporter may suspend service; and, if
Transporter has provided Shipper and the Commission with at least thirty
(30) days notice that service will terminate due to the non-payment,
Transporter, in addition to any other remedy it may have under the service
contract, may after application to and authorization by the Commission, if
that authorization is necessary, terminate the service contract; provided
however, that is Shipper in good faith shall dispute the amount of any such
invoice or part thereof and shall pay to Transporter such amounts as it
concedes to be correct in addition to providing such remittance detail and
documentation identifying the basis of the dispute, and at any time within
thirty (30) days after a demand is made by Transporter shall furnish good
and sufficient surety bond or such other mutually agreeable security,
