GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
allocation purposes, as if the rate(s) paid had been equal to the
Recourse Rate. Any Shipper, existing or new, paying the Recourse
Rate(s) has the same right to capacity as a Shipper willing to pay
a higher Negotiated Rate(s) or rate(s) under a Negotiated Rate
Formula. If the Negotiated Rate or the rate under a Negotiated
Rate Formula is higher than the corresponding Recourse Rate, the
Recourse Rate rather than the Negotiated Rate will be used as the
price cap for release capacity pursuant to Section 19.8 of these
General Terms and Conditions and for the Right of First Refusal
pursuant to Section 22.2 of these General Terms and Conditions.
Where the Negotiated Rate(s) or rate(s) under a Negotiated Rate
Formula results in revenue which is greater than the Recourse Rate
during certain portions of the relevant evaluation period but less
than the revenue at the Recourse Rate during other portions of the
relevant evaluation period (but the revenue pursuant to the
Negotiated Rate(s) or rate(s) under a Negotiated Rate Formula
equals or exceeds that which would be generated at the Recourse
Rate for the entire evaluation period), the value of bids and
requests at the Negotiated Rate(s) or rate(s) under a Negotiated
Rate Formula shall be evaluated as though the Recourse Rate
applied under such bid or request for the entire evaluation
period. Where the Negotiated Rate(s) or rate(s) under the
Negotiated Rate Formula result in revenue which is less than
revenue at the Recourse Rate over the relevant evaluation period,
the value of the bids or requests at the Negotiated Rate(s) or
rate(s) under the Negotiated Rate Formula shall be evaluated based
on such lower revenue and shall be afforded a correspondingly
lower priority than bids or requests at the Recourse Rate.
38.3 ACCOUNTING FOR COSTS AND REVENUES
The allocation of costs to, and the recording of
revenues from service at Negotiated Rate(s) will follow
Trailblazer's normal practices associated with all of its services
under this Tariff. Trailblazer will maintain separate records of
Negotiated Rate and Negotiated Rate Formula transactions for each
billing period. These records shall include the volumes
transported, the billing determinants (contract MDQ), the rates
charged and the revenue received associated with such
transactions. Trailblazer will separately identify such
transactions in Statements G, I and J (or their equivalent) filed
in any general rate proceeding. Should Trailblazer institute a
tariff provision to flow through on a current basis to its
Shippers the impact of certain transportation transactions, the
treatment of revenues from Negotiated Rate(s) or Negotiated Rate
Formula(s) shall be specified in such provision.
