GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

14. UNAUTHORIZED DELIVERY OF GAS

"Unauthorized Gas" shall mean any volume of gas
delivered to Natural that Natural cannot identify as being
delivered pursuant to a transportation nomination on behalf of an
existing Shipper.
14.2 APPLICABILITY NOTICE AND CLAIMS
All Unauthorized Gas shall be subject to this Section.
Natural shall give notice in writing to the owner/Shipper of the
Unauthorized Gas (if known) and to the operator of the applicable
supply point where the Unauthorized Gas was received, that said
Unauthorized Gas is subject to these provisions and will be posted
on the Informational Postings portion of Natural's Interactive
Website. In addition, on the first business day following the
fifteenth of each month, Natural shall post on the Informational
Postings portion of Natural's Interactive Website the volume, date
first received on Natural's system, and point of receipt of any
Unauthorized Gas received ("Notice"). Natural will continue to
post the Notice on the Informational Postings portion of Natural's
Interactive Website until a Valid Claim has been submitted or until
one hundred twenty (120) days after the initial posting of the
Notice. In order to be a Valid Claim for purposes hereof, a claim
must: (a) be provided to Natural in writing; (b) identify the
specific Unauthorized Gas delivered; (c) provide independent
evidence of ownership of the Unauthorized Gas claimed; and (d)
agree to indemnify Natural fully with respect to any adverse claims
to ownership of the gas or to the proceeds resulting from the sale
thereof. In addition, the Unauthorized Gas must be nominated to an
effective transportation Agreement with Natural that contains the
Receipt Point at which the Unauthorized Gas was received ("Valid
Nomination") in order to prevent the accrual of further penalties
under Section 14.3 hereof.
