FSS RATE SCHEDULE

Firm Storage Service

2. APPLICABILITY AND CHARACTER OF SERVICE (Cont'd.)

2.6 Subject to Section 11 of the General Terms and Conditions of this

tariff, an FSS Service Agreement with a primary term of one year or

longer shall continue in effect beyond the expiration of the

primary term until terminated by either party as of the end of the

Storage Period, as set forth in the FSS Service Agreement, upon six

(6) months written notice to the other.

2.7 A shipper receiving service under this FSS Rate Schedule shall not

lose priority for purposes of this section by the renewal or exten-

sion of term of that service.

2.8 Service under this FSS Rate Schedule shall be provided on a basis

that is equal in quality for all gas supplies transported hereun-

der, whether or not purchased from Seller.

2.9 When necessary to assure that a storage service will not in

Transporter's judgment interfere with the integrity of its system,

or service to existing firm transportation or firm storage

customers, Transporter may limit Shipper's right to inject and/or

withdraw gas hereunder in the FSS Service Agreement to specified

percentages of the Contract MDIQ and/or Contract MDWQ during

specified periods of the Storage Year or while Shipper's Storage

Balance is at specified levels, or during other specified periods,

and Shipper may be required to reduce its Storage Balance according

to a specified schedule, and in such cases the FSS Service

Agreement will reflect any such specifications. If Shipper does

not reduce its Storage Balance in accordance with a schedule set

forth in the FSS Service Agreement, any excess shall be considered

a positive imbalance, occurring as of the time Shipper's obligation

to reduce its Storage Balance was not satisfied, and shall be

subject to Section 14 of the General Terms and Conditions of this

tariff, including, without limitation, the transportation balancing

fee (which shall apply in addition to all charges due hereunder)

and the provisions relating to clearing of imbalances; provided,

however, that the maximum transportation balancing fee (i.e., 1.0

x the ISS Rate) shall apply to any and all excess gas in storage.
