Any company which shall succeed by purchase, merger or

consolidation to the properties, substantially as an entirety, of

Shipper or Natural shall be entitled to the rights and shall be

subject to the obligations of its predecessor in title under the

Agreement; provided, however, that Natural reserves the right to

evaluate and approve the creditworthiness of the new entity in
