GENERAL TRANSPORTATION TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
9. FORCE MAJEURE (Continued)
Such causes or contingencies affecting the performance under the
executed Transportation Agreement by either Transporter or Shipper,
however, shall not relieve it of liability in the event of its
concurring negligence or in the event of its failure to use due
diligence to remedy the situation and to remove the cause in an adequate
manner and with all reasonable dispatch, nor shall such causes or
contingencies affecting such performance relieve either party from its
obligations to make payments of amounts then due in respect of gas
theretofore delivered.
10. INTERRUPTIONS OF SERVICE
10.1 Tests and Repairs. Transporter shall have the right, without
liability to Shipper, to interrupt the transportation of gas for Shipper
when necessary to test, alter, modify, enlarge or repair any facility or
property comprising a part of, or appurtenant to, Transporter's pipeline
system, or otherwise related to the operation thereof. Transporter
shall endeavor to cause a minimum of inconvenience to Shipper because of
such interruptions.
10.2 Operational Control. Transporter shall retain full operational
control of its pipeline system and shall at all times be entitled to
schedule deliveries and to operate its pipeline system in a manner
which, in Transporter's sole opinion, is consistent with the obligations
and operating conditions as they may exist from time to time on
Transporter's system, or which will allow Transporter to optimize the
receipt and/or utilization of its gas supplies and for its transmission
system now and in the future. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed
to impinge on such operating flexibility.
11. TRANSPORTATION AGREEMENT AND SERVICE CONDITIONS
11.1 Form of Agreement. Transporter and Shipper shall execute a
Transportation Agreement covering the transportation service
contemplated. The executed Transportation Agreement, together with the
General Transportation Terms and Conditions and applicable rate
schedules shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties for
gas transportation service provided therein and shall be modified only
in writing.
