GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

3. CONTRACTING FOR SERVICE (continued)
3.9 Allocation of Expansion Capacity. (continued)
(c) Reservation of Capacity. To the extent Saltville has (i)
available capacity or (ii) capacity under expiring or
terminating service agreements where such capacity is not
subject to a right of first refusal or Customer does not
exercise its right of first refusal, Saltville reserves the
right, but shall not be obligated, to reserve such capacity
for a future expansion project. Saltville may reserve
capacity for a future expansion project for which an open
season has been held or will be held within twelve (12)
months of the date that Saltville posts such capacity as
being reserved. Any capacity reserved pursuant to this
Section 3.9(c) must first be posted as available capacity on
Saltville's Web Site for at least five (5) Business Days.
Such posting will indicate that Saltville plans to reserve
the posted capacity for a future expansion project to the
extent that the posted capacity is not acquired by Customers
or potential Customers during the open season for capacity
to be reserved.
Any minimum terms and conditions imposed in an open season
for capacity to be reserved must not materially differ so as
to be more restrictive than the terms and conditions imposed
in the expansion project open season. In the event that a
subsequent expansion project open season imposes minimum
terms and conditions that are materially different from the
minimum terms and conditions imposed for the reserved
capacity open season, Saltville shall hold another open
season for the reserved capacity that uses the same minimum
terms and conditions as were imposed for the expansion
project open season.
Any capacity reserved under this Section 3.9(c) may be
reserved for up to twelve (12) months prior to the time
Saltville files for certificate approval for proposed
construction of a related project and thereafter until all
expansion facilities are placed into service. Any capacity
reserved under this Section 3.9(c) shall be made available,
pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.9(e) of these
General Terms and Conditions, for transportation service on
an interim basis up to, but not including, the in-service
date of the related expansion project(s). For such interim
service, Saltville reserves the right to limit any
Customer's renewal rights that might otherwise apply to such
service, including Customer's right of first refusal, if
applicable. Any capacity reserved for a future expansion
project that does not go forward for any reason shall be
reposted as generally available within thirty (30) days of
the date the capacity becomes available.
