12.1 Upon determination by Trunkline that Unauthorized Gas has entered
Trunkline's system, Trunkline shall post notice of Unauthorized
Gas flow on the LINKþ System. Trunkline shall also send written
notice to suspected owners of said Gas; however, Trunkline's
rights under this Tariff shall not be affected by any failure to
give such written notice. Trunkline will post on the LINKþ System
the Quantity, date first received on Trunkline's system and Points
of Receipt of any Unauthorized Gas received ("notice"). Trunkline
shall continue to so post on the LINKþ System until a valid claim
has been submitted or until one hundred twenty (120) days after

to Trunkline in writing; (2) identifying the specific Unauthorized
Gas delivered; (3) providing independent evidence of ownership of
the Unauthorized Gas; and (4) agreeing to indemnify Trunkline
fully with respect to any adverse claims to ownership of the Gas
or to the proceeds resulting from the sale thereof. In addition,
the Unauthorized Gas must be nominated to an effective Service
Agreement with Trunkline that contains the Point of Receipt at
which the Unauthorized Gas was received ("Valid Nomination") in
