GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
(c) Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a notice
under Section 18.2(b), Canyon shall post on the Informational Postings
portion of its Interactive Website an Announcement of Capacity
Availability Subject to Right of First Refusal (Capacity Announcement)
which shall: (1) specify the original Shipper's service rights; (2)
indicate the availability of such service as of the date the existing
Agreement expires, subject to the Right of First Refusal; (3) state
the maximum rate applicable to such service; (4) set out any other
information required by this Section; and (5) solicit bids for such
service. Such Capacity Announcement shall be maintained, and bids
accepted via Canyon's Interactive Website or other mutually agreed
means, for a period of one (1) month from the initial posting.
(d) (1) Within one (1) week after the end of the one
month period during which the Capacity Announcement is posted, Canyon
shall convey to the original Shipper a term sheet for the best bid
(based on price and term) which would qualify for such service in all
respects (including meeting applicable credit criteria), which is a
bona fide bid and which Canyon is willing to accept. Canyon may, but
is not required to, accept any bid which reflects a discount from the
applicable maximum rate. In assessing which is the best bid if more
than one bid is received, Canyon shall apply the same criteria
utilized to evaluate bids under the Capacity Release Program (except
that contract terms in excess of five years shall not increase the
value of any bid), unless different objective economic criteria are
posted by Canyon along with the Capacity Announcement. If a bid is
received for a Negotiated Rate or Negotiated Rate Formula pursuant to
Section 35 of these General Terms and Conditions, the value of the bid
shall be assessed utilizing the Recourse Rate in lieu of the
Negotiated Rate or Negotiated Rate Formula consistent with said
Section 35.
(2) Canyon's term sheet shall contain any and all
terms of the bid but shall not identify the bidder; provided, however,
such bid sheet shall indicate if the best bid was submitted by an
affiliate of Canyon. Except for the providing of such term sheet to
the original Shipper, all terms and conditions of any bid and the
identity of the bidder shall remain confidential; provided that the
Commission may on request have access to such information on a
confidential basis.
