GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
5.1(c)(5) of these General Terms and Conditions. Natural shall provide a
written explanation if such a request is denied because the flow reversal
is not operationally feasible. A Shipper may segment a backhaul, but
such segmentation shall be subject to review by Natural on a case-by-case
basis as to whether a backhaul on each resulting segment is operationally
feasible. The Shipper (or Replacement Shipper in the case of a release)
may nominate service at Receipt and Delivery Points for the path segment
that results in a reverse flow from the original path; however, a forward
haul will be treated as being outside of the path if the original path is
a backhaul, as provided in Section 5.5 of these General Terms and
Conditions. Subject to the availability of point capacity and to
ordinary nomination procedures, deliveries may be made at the same point
for a forward haul on the upstream segment and a backhaul of the
downstream segment. The forward haul will have priority at the point if
the point capacity is not adequate. At the point of segmentation, the
upstream Shipper may nominate deliveries up to MDQ and the downstream
Shipper may nominate receipts up to MDQ, subject to constraints on point
capacity and ordinary scheduling procedures and priorities.
(f) (1) Subject to the remainder of this subsection
8.14(f), the Releasing and Replacement Shipper involved in a segmented
release may each choose primary Receipt Points and primary Delivery Points
within the applicable zones equal to their respective contract MDQs after
the release; provided, however, that the resulting segments may not
overlap. If the points chosen are within the path of the original
Agreement and do not involve changing a primary point thereunder, the point
designations shall be accepted, subject only to the availability of firm
capacity at those points and agreement on the rate applicable at the new
primary points. If one or more points are within the zone but outside the
path of the original Agreement, then the point change provision in Section
5.1(c)(5) of these General Terms and Conditions and the provisions of
subsection 8.14(f)(2) shall apply. If capacity is not available at the
point or to the point, the Shipper may designate such points (not
overlapping with other segments) in defining a segment, but the points
shall have secondary point priority (either in-path or out-of-path, as
applicable).
(2) A Shipper, a Replacement Shipper or a
Subreplacement Shipper may change the primary Receipt or Delivery Points
listed in the Agreement to new primary point(s) subject to the point change
provisions of Section 5.1(c)(5) of these General Terms and Conditions, if
the Shipper (or in the case of a release, the Original Shipper) and Natural
agree to amend the Agreement to change the primary Receipt and Delivery
Point accordingly; provided, however, that consent of the original Shipper
shall not be required in the case of a permanent release by that original
Shipper of its firm capacity. Natural shall not be obligated to reserve
