Receipt Pressure, Assumed Atmospheric Pressure

----------------------------------------------

Natural gas to be delivered to Canyon at the Receipt Point(s) shall be at a delivery pressure

Shipper shall not deliver gas at a pressure in excess of the Maximum Allowable Operating Pressure

Point(s).

Rates

-----

Except as provided to the contrary in any written agreement(s) between the parties in effect

during the term hereof, Shipper shall pay Canyon the applicable maximum rate(s) and all other lawful

charges as specified in Canyon's applicable rate schedule. Shipper and Canyon may agree that Shipper

shall pay a rate other than the applicable maximum rate so long as such rate is between the applicable

maximum and minimum rates specified for such service in the Tariff. Canyon and Shipper may agree that

a specific discounted rate will apply only to certain volumes under the agreement. The parties may

agree that a specified discounted rate will apply only to specified volumes (MDQ or commodity volumes)

under the agreement; that a specified discounted rate will apply only if specified volumes are

achieved or only if the volumes do not exceed a specified level; that a specified discounted rate will

apply only during specified periods of the year or for a specifically defined period; that a

discounted rate shall not apply to Access Requests received after a specified time in the nomination

cycle; that a specified discounted rate will apply only to specified points, zones or other defined

geographical area(s); and/or that a specified discounted rate(s) will apply in a specified

relationship to the volumes actually transported (i.e., that the reservation charge will be adjusted

in a specified relationship to volumes actually transported). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no

discount agreement may provide that an agreed discount as to a certain volume level will be

invalidated if the Shipper transports an incremental volume above that agreed level. In addition, the

discount Agreement may include may include a provision that if one rate component which was at or

below the applicable maximum rate at the time the discount agreement was executed subsequently exceeds

the applicable maximum rate due to a change in Canyon's maximum rates so that such rate component must

be adjusted downward to equal the new applicable maximum rate, then other rate components may be

adjusted upward
