GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
7.3 Force Majeure: (Continued)
(b) "Force Majeure" means any event or condition affecting
Transporter, Shipper, or any other person, that prevents, hinders, or delays
Transporter or Shipper from performing any obligation in whole or in part,
if the event or condition is not within the control of the party claiming
Force Majeure and which by the exercise of due diligence, the party is
unable to prevent or overcome. These events or conditions shall include,
but not be limited to: acts of God; strikes, lockouts or other industrial
disturbances; sabotage, acts of the public enemy, wars, blockade,
insurrections, riots or epidemics; landslides, lightning, earthquakes,
fires, hurricanes, storms, storm warnings, floods or washouts; arrests and
restraints of governments and people or civil disturbances; explosions,
breakage or accident to plants, equipment, machinery or lines of pipe;
freezing of wells or lines of pipe; unscheduled maintenance needs, acts of
government or the necessity of complying with any governmental or judicial
rule or order; and any other causes, whether of the kind herein enumerated
or otherwise affecting Transporter or Shipper or downstream transporters or
gatherers immediately connected to Transporter's facilities, not within the
control of the party claiming suspension and which by the exercise of due
diligence the party is unable to prevent or overcome. "Force Majeure" shall
also include the inability of either party to acquire, or delays in
acquiring at reasonable cost and by the exercise of reasonable diligence,
servitudes, rights-of-way grants, permits, permissions, certificates,
authorizations, licenses, materials, or supplies required to enable the
party to fulfill its obligations.
(c) The settlement of strikes or lockouts shall be entirely within
the discretion of the person affected, and the above requirement that any
Force Majeure shall be remedied with reasonable dispatch shall not require
the settlement of strikes or lockouts when that course is inadvisable in the
discretion of the person affected.
(d) If an incident of Force Majeure claimed by Transporter causes a
complete service interruption for a Shipper under an existing FT TSA,
Transporter will offer full reservation charge credits to the affected
Shippers for each Force Majeure service interruption to the extent it
exceeds a period of 10 Days.
