GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

(Continued)

TransColorado has invoked force majeure, (iii) imbalances which

are caused by TransColorado or result from TransColorado's error

or (iv) TransColorado has previously imposed and Shipper has

previously paid imbalance charges on the quantities of gas

comprising the imbalance amount.

In determining imbalances, TransColorado shall take into

consideration (i) quantities retained for fuel and lost and

unaccounted-for gas and (ii) additional quantities transported

pursuant to any agreed-upon action. TransColorado and Shipper may

mutually agree to offset excess or deficient quantities delivered

under other transportation service agreements between

TransColorado and Shipper.

All imbalance charges shall be invoiced according to Section 13 to

these General Terms and Conditions.

12.7 Balancing Upon Termination. In the event the quantities of gas

received and delivered are not in balance at the end of the term

of the service agreement, then such balance shall be achieved at

the earliest practicable date, not to exceed 45 days after the

imbalance is determined by extending receipts or deliveries, as

applicable, at the appropriate point(s) of receipt or point(s) of

delivery, until such balance is achieved, or by such other method

as is then mutually agreed upon by TransColorado and Shipper.

12.8 Maintenance of System Integrity. Nothing in this section limits

adjust receipts and deliveries of gas in order to alleviate

conditions that threaten the integrity of its system, including

maintenance of service to higher-priority customers.

12.9 Imbalances with the Other Parties. TransColorado shall not be

responsible for eliminating any imbalances between Shipper and any

third party. Furthermore, TransColorado shall not be obligated to

adjust or deviate from its standard operating and accounting

procedures in order to alleviate any such imbalances.
