GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
14. ALLOCATION AND IMBALANCES (Cont'd.)
Each month, Transporter will calculate the imbalance for each
agreement (from among all the receipt and delivery points used
under that agreement) and aggregate those calculations into
that agreement's Monthly Imbalance. The Monthly Imbalances
for all the agreements in effect for a single Shipper are set
off against each other to calculate the Monthly Shipper
Imbalance. Each Monthly Shipper Imbalance is aggregated with
any cumulative unresolved imbalances from previous months into
that Shipper's Cumulative Monthly Imbalance. The Cumulative
Monthly Imbalance is compared to a Monthly Imbalance Tolerance
Level ("MITL"), which is equal to 5% of the accumulated daily
scheduled receipts for the month under all that Shipper's
agreements, but at least 1000 Dth.
Transporter will send a Monthly Imbalance Statement, setting
out the Monthly Imbalance for each of Shipper's agreements,
the Monthly Shipper Imbalance and Cumulative Monthly
Imbalance, to each Shipper by the 25th day of the following
month, or by the next following business day if the 25th falls
on a weekend or holiday. If a Shipper indicates its consent
in writing delivered to Transporter, or by E-Mail message on
the EBB System, Transporter will transmit a Shipper's Monthly
Imbalance Statement by E-Mail message on the EBB System.
14.8 Transportation Balancing Fee Imbalances in excess of one MITL
represent unauthorized use of Transporter's system facilities.
If the Monthly Shipper Imbalance quantity causes the
Cumulative Monthly Imbalance to exceed one MITL, a
Transportation Balancing Fee will be charged on the amount in
excess of tolerance, except as otherwise provided in this
Section 14.8. The schedule for this fee per dth is as
follows:
Monthly Imbalance
Tolerance Level Transportation Balancing Fee

> 1 to 2 0.2 x ISS Rate
> 2 to 3 0.4 "
> 3 to 4 0.6 "
> 4 to 5 0.8 "
