Subsection 12.6 of these General Terms and Conditions shall pay the
higher of the negotiated rate or the Recourse Rate, unless otherwise

51.7 Transporter will separately account for negotiated rate
transactions so that these transactions can be independently

converted to negotiated rate agreements will be recorded separately
from those transactions originated as negotiated rate agreements.

may be negotiated in form and/or level from the maximum-to-minimum
ranges set forth on the Notice of Currently Effective Rates of this
Tariff.
52.2 Conditions: Implementation of a negotiated gathering rate
shall be subject to the following conditions:
52.2.1 Gathering Shipper had access to the Recourse Rate at
the time of the execution of the non-jurisdictional gathering
agreement implementing negotiated rates. The Recourse Rate will
not be available to either party during the term of a negotiated
rate non-jurisdictional gathering agreement, except upon mutual
agreement.
