GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
(2) Each of the amounts in (1) is a fixed
obligation for the designated customer which is not affected by
termination of any Agreement, but shall be subject to adjustment
pursuant to Section 38.5(d).
(3) (i) This Section 38.5 shall be a
comprehensive treatment of the assessment of Supply Realignment
Costs to G Customers and the charges provided for herein are in
lieu of all otherwise applicable charges for Supply Realignment
Costs. Natural's recovery of Supply Realignment Costs from G
Customers relating to service in their traditional market areas
shall be limited to the provisions of this Section 38.5 and Supply
Realignment Costs recoverable hereunder shall not [except as
expressly provided in Section 38.5(d)] be subject to adjustment.
No demand charges or volumetric charges other than provided herein
for recovery of such charges shall apply to any Agreement of any of
the G Customers for delivery in such customer's traditional market
area. For the purposes hereof, the term "traditional market area"
shall refer to markets of any of the G Customers into which Natural
had at any time since 1985 provided G-1 service for such customer.
(ii) Any actual or imputed collection of
Supply Realignment Costs by Natural from other customers shall not
reduce recoveries from any of the G Customers nor, except as
otherwise provided in Section 38.7, shall any of the G Customers be
entitled to any credit or refund as a result of Natural having
collected or being deemed to have collected any Supply Realignment
Costs from any other Shipper. Underrecoveries of Supply
Realignment Costs from other customers (whether firm or
interruptible) shall not be shifted to any of the G Customers nor
shall overrecoveries of Supply Realignment Costs from any such
customers reduce the allocation of Supply Realignment Costs to any
of the G Customers.
(iii) Notwithstanding the remainder of this
subsection (3), nothing herein shall prejudice or preclude Natural
from filing to collect pursuant to generally applicable tariff
provisions any transition costs under Order Nos. 636, et seq.,
flowed through from upstream pipelines (it being understood,
however, that the G Customer Settlement encompasses all upstream
transition costs associated with Coal Gas). Each of the G Customers
reserves all rights to protest and object to any filing by Natural
to institute such recovery. Further, to the extent Supply
Realignment Costs are allocated to and embedded in base rates for
Rate Schedule ITS, nothing herein shall be read to preclude
collection of such base rates by Natural from any of the G Customers
