Common use of Allocation of Outages Clause in Contracts

Allocation of Outages. The Parties expressly intend and agree that any outages or reductions in Total Transfer Capability shall be borne first by HQUS and by all transmission rights holders served by the NECEC Transmission Line (including Owner, if applicable) other than Distribution Company and the other RFP Sponsors, and that any remaining reduction shall be allocated among Distribution Company and the other RFP Sponsors in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares. Owner acknowledges and agrees that it will not reduce the Firm Transmission Service available to Distribution Company except in accordance with the foregoing priority and will not reduce the Firm Transmission Service available to Distribution Company in an unduly discriminatory manner as compared with any other transmission rights holder served by the NECEC Transmission Line (including Owner, if applicable). For purposes of clarity, HQUS’s transmission service under the Additional HQUS TSA shall be reduced before any reductions are applied to Distribution Company’s transmission service under this Agreement.
