GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

8.3 Criteria of Release. A releasing Shipper may

specify how bids for released capacity are to be evaluated

to determine the best offer. A shipper must notify

Overthrust of the criteria by which volumetric bids are to

be evaluated. These criteria must be objectively stated,

applicable to all potential bidders and nondiscriminatory.

Unless the offer to release is withdrawn according to

8.23, the releasing Shipper shall not be entitled to reject

a bid that meets its specified criteria.

8.4 Qualification for Participation in the Capacity

Release Program - Any party wishing to become a bidding

Shipper must prequalify by satisfying the creditworthiness

provisions and the EBB access and signatory requirements of

this tariff prior to submitting a bid for capacity.

Notwithstanding Shipper's qualification to participate in

Overthrust's capacity release program, Overthrust does not

guarantee to the releasing Shipper that the replacement

Shipper will pay for the contracted-for service.

and the name and phone number of the individual responsible

for authorizing the release of capacity.

(b) The maximum and minimum RDC to be released

stated in Dth/day.

or recallable basis. If on a recallable basis, the terms

which all contingencies must be met and whether Overthrust

should award capacity to the next highest bidder if

contingencies are not met.
