12. POSSESSION OF GAS
As between Transporter and Shipper, Shipper shall be deemed to be in
exclusive control and possession of the gas and responsible therefore
and shall hold Transporter harmless of and from any damage or injury
caused thereby until the gas shall have been delivered to Transporter at
the receipt point(s), after which Transporter shall be deemed to be in
control and possession of such gas until its delivery to Shipper or for
Shipper's account at the delivery point(s) and while in such possession
Transporter shall be responsible therefore and hold Shipper harmless of
and from any damage or injury caused thereby. The party in exclusive
control and possession of the gas shall be responsible for all injury or
damage caused thereby to any third party. In the absence of gross
negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Transporter, Shipper
waives any and all claims and demands against Transporter, its officers,
employees or agents, arising out of or in any way connected with (1) the
quality, use or condition of the gas after delivery from Transporter for
the account of such Shipper, (2) any losses or shrinkage of gas during
or resulting from service hereunder, and (3) all other claims and
demands arising out of Transporter's performance of its duties
hereunder.
13. WARRANTY OF TITLE TO GAS
Shipper warrants for itself, its successors and assigns, that it will
have, at the time of delivery hereunder, good title to the gas it
delivers and that the gas it delivers hereunder shall be free and clear
of all liens, encumbrances and claims whatsoever. In the event of a
breach of this warranty, Shipper shall indemnify Transporter and save it
harmless from all suits, actions, debts, accounts, damages, costs,
losses, and expenses arising from or out of any adverse claims of any
and all persons to said gas and/or to royalties, taxes, license fees or
charges thereon applicable for such delivery of gas, and that Shipper
will indemnify Transporter and save it harmless from all taxes or
assessments that may be levied and assessed upon such delivery and which
are by law payable by, and the obligation of, the party making such
delivery. If Shipper's title or right to deliver gas to be transported
is questioned or involved in any action, Shipper shall not qualify for
or shall be ineligible to continue to receive service until such time as
Shipper's title or right to deliver is free from question; provided,
however, Transporter shall allow Shipper to qualify for or continue
receiving service under this Tariff if Shipper furnishes a bond
satisfactory to Transporter. Title to the gas received by Transporter
at the receipt point(s) shall not pass to Transporter, except for title
to gas delivered for Retainage, which shall pass to Transporter upon
delivery at the receipt point(s).
