GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

between TransColorado and the replacement Shipper on the EBB

conforming to the terms of the Shipper's bid.

(h) A releasing Shipper shall retain all of the capacity under

its transportation service agreement that is not acquired by

a replacement Shipper.

(i) Unless TransColorado agrees otherwise in writing, the

original capacity holder will remain responsible to

TransColorado for payment of the reservation charge

throughout the original contract term irrespective of any

capacity release.

(j) If TransColorado agrees to release the original capacity

holder of its contract obligation, under which the original

capacity holder is paying a discounted rate, TransColorado

will not be obligated to provide service at a discounted

rate to a replacement Shipper under a permanent capacity

assignment.

(k) Bills to releasing Shippers will reflect simultaneous credit

for reservation charges billed to replacement Shippers.

6.14 Permanent Release of Capacity.

(a) Where all or a portion of a Shipper's capacity has been

permanently released for the entire remaining term of the

releasing Shipper's service agreement without recall or

interruption rights, the releasing Shipper may request

TransColorado to amend its service agreement to reflect the

permanent release of the capacity. Unless TransColorado

agrees in writing, the original shipper will remain

responsible to TransColorado for payment of the reservation

charge throughout the original term of the agreement.

TransColorado may not unreasonably refuse to relieve the

original Shipper of its liability for payment of the

reservation charge for a permanent release.

(b) TransColorado shall not be obligated to amend the releasing

Shipper's service agreement to reflect the permanently

released capacity and may condition an amendment to the

agreement on payment of exit fees. In lieu of exit fees,

the replacement Shipper may enter into a new service

agreement containing terms and conditions acceptable to

TransColorado. TransColorado will not amend a releasing

shipper's contract to reflect a permanent release of

capacity when the release has been made at a volumetric

rate.

(c) Unless TransColorado agrees to amend the releasing Shipper's

service agreement, the releasing Shipper
