GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Cont'd)
10. BILLING AND PAYMENT
10.1 Billing.
(a) Seller shall render or cause to be rendered to Customer by
the tenth (10th) day of each month following the date of the final monthly
meter reading (Billing Month) a statement of storage balances and monthly
storage activity under each Rate Schedule, the net billing rate and the
amount due, together with information sufficient to explain and support any
adjustments made by Seller with respect to the quantity of gas injected or
withdrawn. Billing Statements shall be deemed to be rendered by Seller when
Seller electronically posts the statements to Customer on Seller’s EBB. If
Seller is unable to render Billing Statements through Seller’s EBB, the
Billing Statements shall be deemed to be rendered when Seller deposits the
Billing Statements with the U.S. Mail for first-class delivery, as evidenced
by the postmark date, or Seller deposits the Billing Statements with an
overnight courier service for delivery to Customer. All invoices shall be
based on actuals (if available) or on best available data. Quantities at
points where OBAs exist shall be invoiced on scheduled quantities.
(b) When information necessary for billing purposes is in the
control of Customer, Customer shall furnish such information to Seller on
or before the fifth day after the final meter reading of each Billing
Month.
(c) Both Seller and Customer shall have the right to examine, at
reasonable times agreed to by both parties, books, records, and charts of
the other to the extent necessary to verify the accuracy of any statement,
charge, or computation made pursuant to any of the provisions of this
Section. The examining party shall have one year after the close of a year
in which to make an audit of the other party’s records for such year.
10.2 Payment.
(a) The Billing Date will be deemed the later of the 10th
calendar day after the flow month or the actual date the invoice was posted
on Seller's EBB. Customer shall pay Seller by wire or other electronic fund
transfer (EFT) of Federal Funds which are made immediately available to
Seller at such bank account as Seller shall designate, on or before the tenth
(10th) day after the Billing Date, except when such tenth (10th) day is a
Saturday, Sunday or Federal Bank Holiday, or Seller Holiday, in which case
payment is due on the following Business Day, provided however, a Customer
whose monthly invoice shows a total amount due of less than $50,000 (fifty
thousand dollars) may elect to make payment by check which shall be sent by
U.S. Mail, first class delivery and postmarked on or before the tenth (10th)
day after the posted billing date. All such payments shall be considered to
have been made on the date when Seller has use of said funds. Customer shall
