fied by the Existing Shipper's Notice, or are in other

respects incomplete or non-responsive to such notice. Any bid

posting period. Potential Shippers may not submit multiple

bids for the same package of capacity. A Prearranged Shipper

bid withdrawn during the remainder of the posting period. For

this purpose, bids will be determined to be "higher" or

"lower" than the withdrawn bid by application of the standard

applicable to the determination of best bid, as set forth in

Section 10.5.
