GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

(Continued)

20. CAPACITY RELEASE (Continued)

(a) Any firm Shipper (Releasing Shipper) is eligible to release

all or part of its firm transportation capacity, defined, with

respect to Rate Schedule FT-1, as capacity between

primary Receipt Points and Delivery Points, for use by another party

(Prearranged Replacement Shipper or Replacement Shipper) for a

minimum term of one (1) day and a maximum term not to exceed the

remaining term of the Releasing Shipper's firm Service Agreement.

However, if a Shipper wishes to release a part of its capacity and

Transporter determines that such a release could create operational

problems, then Releasing Shipper must (1) amend its Service

Agreement to incorporate a contract-specific flow requirement on

its retained capacity that would enable Transporter to duplicate

the displacement capacity available under the Releasing Shipper's

Service Agreement as it exists prior to such release, or (2)

condition its release on the Replacement Shipper or Prearranged

Replacement Shipper being subject to a contract-specific flow

requirement on its newly acquired capacity, or (3) take other

action that is acceptable to Transporter.

A Releasing Shipper can segment its firm capacity under a Rate

Schedule FT-1 Service Agreement by posting a release of such firm

capacity from any physical Receipt Point to any physical delivery

point subject to availability of capacity at and between the

designated points. Any Replacement Shipper or Prearranged

Replacement Shipper which has previously contracted for released

capacity may also release the capacity to another party, thereby

becoming a Releasing Shipper, subject to the notification and

bidding requirements of this Section 20.
