9. WARRANTY OF TITLE AND INDEMNIFICATION
9.1 SHIPPER warrants the title to all gas delivered by it or for its
account to COMPANY. Title to gas retained as GRO and LAUF shall
pass from SHIPPER to COMPANY at the Receipt Point. SHIPPER
represents and warrants that it will pay and satisfy, or make
provision for the payment and satisfaction of, any and all claims
of every nature whatsoever in, to, or in respect of the title to
all gas delivered by it to COMPANY; and SHIPPER hereby agrees to
defend at its cost, and when notified by COMPANY to indemnify
COMPANY against, all suits, judgments, claims, demands, causes of
action, costs, losses, and expenses arising out of or in any way
connected with any claims to the title to all gas delivered by it
or for its account to COMPANY, except to the extent any of the
foregoing arises from COMPANY's negligence, gross negligence, or
intentional misconduct.
9.2 After SHIPPER delivers gas or causes gas to be delivered to
COMPANY at the Receipt Point(s), COMPANY shall be deemed to be in
control and possession of and have responsibility for the gas
until it delivers gas to SHIPPER or for the account of Shipper at
the Delivery Point(s). SHIPPER shall have no responsibility with
respect to any gas on account of anything which may be done,
happen, or arise with respect to such gas solely because of
COMPANY's control and possession until COMPANY has delivered such
gas to SHIPPER or for the account of SHIPPER.
9.3 COMPANY assumes no obligation whatever to the owner of any other
interest of any kind in any gas delivered to COMPANY by or for the
account of SHIPPER.
10. HOURLY RATES OF FLOW
10.1 If requested by SHIPPER pursuant to Section 10.2 below, COMPANY
shall use reasonable efforts to deliver in excess of uniform
hourly rates, consistent with current operating conditions and
COMPANY's ability to provide firm service. Otherwise, COMPANY
shall make deliveries at uniform hourly rates, or as near uniform
as operationally feasible. To the extent that there is not enough
capacity to accommodate all requests for delivery rates in excess
of uniform hourly rates, such capacity for such delivery rates
will be apportioned according to the allocation methodology in
Section 16.2 of these General Terms and Conditions.
10.2 Notice to Observe Maximum Authorized Fluctuations in Flow Rates:
If COMPANY determines in its reasonable judgment that SHIPPER'S
takes of gas in excess of an hourly rate of 1/24 of scheduled
quantities threaten the integrity of its pipeline system,
including the ability to deliver to any other SHIPPER its Daily
Entitlement, COMPANY shall, if reasonably practicable, give
SHIPPER notice prior to the beginning of the next nomination cycle
to reduce its takes of gas at such Delivery Point to an hourly
rate not greater than 1/24 of scheduled quantities.
