12. LINE PACK
12.1 The total quantity of natural gas needed by
Transporter for the purging, pressuring and
maintaining pressure on Transporter's system,
testing of Transporter's facilities, and for
major expansions or line additions ("Line Pack")
shall be purchased by Transporter pro rata from
all firm shippers, unless Transporter can
purchase Line Pack directly from a third party at
less cost. When Line Pack is needed, Shipper's
portion of Line Pack shall be based pro rata on
Shipper's MDQ and Transporter's total firm MDQs.
The price per MMBtu to be paid Shipper for Line
Pack Gas sold to Transporter shall be Shipper's
average cost per MMBtu for all gas delivered by
Shipper to Transporter during the month in which
Transporter purchases such gas from Shipper.
Transporter and Shipper recognize that not all
firm shippers may have natural gas available for
Line Pack as of the date when such volumes are
required by Transporter. Transporter and Shipper
agree that those having Line Pack Gas available
when such volumes are required by Transporter
shall furnish the necessary quantity of natural
gas for Line Pack and any excess natural gas so
furnished shall be reimbursed in natural gas on a
thermal equivalent basis by Transporter from
natural gas delivered by such other firm Shippers
not having natural gas available on the date when
such volumes are required by Transporter as
natural gas is received by Transporter from such
other firm Shippers for transportation. If the
quantity of Line Pack Gas sold by Shipper is
determined to exceed at any time Shipper's
portion of the total Line Pack required by
Transporter, then such excess shall not be
reimbursed but shall be applied to any future
Line Pack increase required by Transporter from
Shipper until such excess is eliminated.
From time to time Line Pack quantities shall be
adjusted upward when deemed appropriate by
Transporter in its sole judgment and will reflect
Shipper's MDQ at such times.
Following occurrences when Line Pack quantities
are required (other than normal daily losses)
Transporter shall estimate the quantity of
natural gas needed and shall specify when such
quantity shall be sold and delivered to
Transporter by Shipper and other firm shippers to
meet such requirements. Upon notification by
Transporter, Shipper shall sell and deliver to
Transporter such natural gas based pro rata upon
Shipper's MDQ and Transporter's total firm MDQs
