GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
2. QUALIFICATION FOR SERVICE (Cont'd.)
C) as an alternative to (A) and (B), in a form
and of a value mutually agreeable to
Transporter and Shipper.
(ii) Should a non-creditworthy Shipper desire to earn
interest on cash collateral required pursuant to the
terms and conditions hereof, a non-creditworthy
Shipper shall provide written notice thereof to
Transporter. Where Transporter receives such notice,
Transporter will pay interest, less any bank fees, on
the amount of cash collateral received. The interest
rate shall be equal to the actual rate earned by
Transporter for any time period that such cash
collateral is on deposit. Shipper shall not be
entitled to earn interest on advance payments.
(iii) In the event that Shipper has failed to provide
adequate security as provided herein or to pay any
nondisputed obligations, the Transporter can take
title, at no cost, to any payments owed Shipper by
Transporter, up to the amount of any unpaid, non-
disputed obligations the Shipper owes Transporter.
(f) New Facilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Tariff, if the service requested by Shipper would
require the construction of lateral or other non-mainline
facilities by Transporter, Transporter may require (i) of a
non-creditworthy Shipper, security for a value up to the
cost of such facilities, with respect to Shipper's
reimbursement obligations under Section 11.1 (if any) and,
in addition to any security required by Subsection 2.2(e),
Shipper's obligations under its service agreement, and (ii)
of a creditworthy Shipper, a commitment to provide the
security identified in clause (i) of this Subsection 2.2(f)
in the event Shipper becomes non-creditworthy. In no event
shall the amount of the security exceed the cost of the
facilities, and in the event facilities are to be
constructed to accommodate more than one shipper, such
amount shall not exceed the cost of the facilities allocable
to Shipper. This tariff does not govern the security
requirements applicable to mainline facility projects.
