(a) Shipper and Transporter have executed a Gas Transportation Contract

for Firm Service under Rate Schedule FTS;

transportation of the gas from Transporter's system to such facilities; and

(d) All necessary regulatory and governmental approvals to purchase and

sell, transport and, if appropriate, import the natural gas to be transported

by Transporter have been obtained.

2. REQUESTS FOR SERVICE

2.1 Transporter will accept reservations for firm transportation service

under Rate Schedule FTS, subject to the availability of firm capacity on

Transporter's natural gas transmission system for the provision of such

service, from Shippers on a first-come, first-served basis with priority given

to those Shippers who were first to request such service in accordance with

Section 2.2 hereof. For purposes of preceding sentence, all requests for

service received on any one (1) day will be deemed to have been received at

the same time on such day, in a day, if received prior to the gas flow

nomination deadline. If requests for the reservation of firm transportation

service under Rate Schedule FTS received on any one (1) day exceed the

capacity available for firm reserved transportation service on Transporter's

system, such capacity shall be allocated among Shippers requesting firm

reserved transportation service under Rate Schedule FTS on such day on a pro

rata basis. In the event that any Shipper elects not to enter into a contract

for its pro rata share of firm reserved transportation capacity such capacity

shall be reallocated among the other Shippers on a pro rata basis up to their

requested reservations. Upon Transporter's acceptance of a reservation,

Transporter and Shipper shall enter into a Gas Transportation Contract for

Firm Transportation Service in the form set forth on effective Sheet Nos. 46

to 52. Such contract(s) shall be at least one month in duration and shall

provide that transportation service shall begin and terminate on dates

mutually agreed to by Shipper and Transporter. After the primary term of any

contract for this Rate Schedule FTS, such contract may continue in effect

month-to-month thereafter until terminated upon at least sixty (60) days prior

notice to terminate on dates mutually agreed to by Shipper and Transporter.
