GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

5. CAPACITY RELEASE (continued)
5.2 Notice of Offer. (continued)
(c) A description of the capacity to be released. The release
quantity shall be expressed as a numeric quantity only.
The offer must state the Maximum Storage Quantity, the
Maximum Daily Receipt Obligation, the Maximum Daily Delivery
Obligation, the Maximum Daily Injection Quantity, and the
Maximum Daily Withdrawal Quantity and the associated
Point(s) of Receipt and Point(s) of Delivery, subject to the
proposed release and subject to the daily quantity
limitations described in Section 5.5 below;
(d) The proposed effective date and term of the release;
(e) The identity of any Prearranged Customer;
(f) For biddable releases, the method to be applied in
evaluating bids, allocating capacity and breaking ties, as
described in Section 5.4 below; provided, however, if the
Releasing Customer specifies a bid evaluation methodology
other than the standard methods of highest rate, net revenue
or present value, such alternative bid evaluation method
must be set forth with sufficient specificity that Steckman
Ridge's evaluation of the bids to determine the "best bid"
is a purely ministerial matter that does not require any
discretionary exercise of judgment by Steckman Ridge. In
addition, Releasing Customer must specify the Tie Break
Method that Steckman Ridge will apply to award capacity
among multiple bids that yield the same value.
(g) whether, to what extent, and the conditions pursuant to
which capacity will be subject to recall on a full day or an
intraday basis, and if recallable, (1) whether the Releasing
Customer's recall notification must be provided exclusively
on a Business Day, and (2) any reput methods and rights
associated with returning the previously released capacity
to the Replacement Customer. These rights and methods may
be either: (i) reput must be accepted by the original
Replacement Customer for the original terms of the release,
or (ii) reput may be accepted at the option of the original
Replacement Customer for the original terms of the release.
(h) whether bids on a volumetric rate basis may be submitted,
and, if so, the method for evaluating any such bids, and any
other special conditions;
(i) whether contingent bids may be submitted, and, if so, the
date by which each contingent bidder will be required to
satisfy or eliminate the contingency if Releasing Customer
elects to allow the bidder additional time beyond the time
period specified in Sections 5.4(a) and 5.4(b) to satisfy or
eliminate the contingency;
(j) any extensions of the minimum posting/bid periods;
(k) whether Releasing Customer desires to utilize the first-
come, first-served option for short-term releases described
in Section 5.7 below and any minimum terms applicable
thereto;
