W-1 RATE SCHEDULE

Hub Service - Wheeling Schedule

3. RATES (Cont'd)

the current Posted Rate on the date the Shipper's Hub Nomination

Form is received, as verified by telephone approval, and Shipper's

W-1 service agreement will be deemed to be so amended.

3.2 If during the term of a W-1 Nomination, Transporter posts a lower

Posted Rate on the EBB, Shipper's Wheeling Service Agreement will

be deemed amended to reduce the rate to the current Posted Rate

for the term of the Nomination; provided, however, if the current

Posted Rate is subsequently increased during the term of that

Nomination, the W-1 service agreement will be deemed amended to

reflect the increased rate but no more than the then-current Posted

Rate at the commencement of such Nomination.

3.3 Notwithstanding Paragraphs 3.1 and 3.2, on any day that a Shipper

both tenders and receives gas at the corresponding Hub Points, to

the extent that the quantity tendered and received are equal, the

entire charge shall be a commodity only charge at the current

Posted Rate Schedule W-1 Fly-By Rate per dth as posted on the EBB

(ranging between the maximum and minimum of such rate set forth on

the currently effective Sheet No. 5A of this tariff) times the

quantity of gas tendered. In addition, to the extent that the

quantities of gas tendered and received are not equal, the current

Posted Rate Schedule W-1 Fly-By rate shall apply to the net

difference. If Shipper informs Transporter that Shipper is

transferring title to the gas to another party at the Hub Point at

which Transporter is to deliver the gas to Shipper, Transporter

shall deliver that gas at that Hub Point for the account of

Shipper's transferee.

3.4 Transporter will retain the percent of receipts set forth on Sheet

No. 5A as "fuel, loss and company-use allowance," except that this

percentage may be discounted as provided in Subsection 3.5, hereof.

3.5 Transporter is not obligated to offer to wheel or to wheel gas at

any rates or allowances less than the maximum rates and allowances

specified for this Rate Schedule on Sheet No. 5A; however, nothing

precludes Transporter from charging a rate between the maximum and

minimum rates or retaining less than the maximum allowance for this

service under this Rate Schedule.
