Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions. D. Shall not deviate significantly (ix) meet the specifications of all downstream pipelines, as amended from the Gas Analysis set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. Buyer/Processor time to time, subject to any waivers from such specifications granted to Buyer from time to time. F. Buyer may test the Seller’s Gas delivered hereunder for adherence to the specifications above set forth, such testing to be in accordance with generally accepted industry standards and procedures. Buyer shall give notice to Seller of the time of such testing sufficiently in advance in order that Seller may have its representative present. If the Gas so delivered by Seller does not meet the specifications set forth in Exhibit C above referencedabove, Buyer/Processor, at its option, may refuse to accept delivery of said Gas into Buyer’s Gathering System. If Seller shall deliver Gas to Buyer which exceeds the maximum pressure specifications, or fails to meet the quality specifications above-referenced, and Buyer elects to accept such non-conforming Gas, then Buyer shall be responsible for any damages caused thereby; provided, however, Seller will be responsible for any damages occurring prior to the time that Buyer became aware of the non-conformity. If Buyer elects not receive such non-conforming Gas, Seller shall have the right to conform Seller’s Gas to the above specifications. Should Seller fail to do so, Buyer, at its Facilitiesoption, may elect to accept such non-conforming Gas, condition the same to conform to the above specifications and charge Seller a mutually acceptable conditioning fee. If neither Party elects to condition the Gas to conform to the above specifications, then Seller, at its option, and upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to Buyer, shall have the right to obtain the release of such non-conforming Gas from the Agreement, but only as to the formation from which said Gas is produced. Notwithstanding anything hereinabove to the contrary, should Buyer elect to accept and pay for non-conforming Gas, Buyer shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights to reject any future non-conforming Gas and shall nevertheless be entitled, at any time and from time to time, to enforce the quality provisions hereof and refuse to accept delivery of any volumes of nonconforming Gas from Seller. G. At least semi-annually, unless otherwise required by statute, Buyer shall take samples at each of the meters described in Section 7.A. of these GT&C and have such samples analyzed by chromatograph analysis to determine the liquids content by component and the Gross Heating Value of such Gas. Buyer shall have the right to take and analyze a spot sample prior to the regularly scheduled sampling. Additionally, upon Seller’s written request to Buyer and at Seller’s sole cost, risk and expense, Buyer shall take and analyze samples more frequently. All samples taken hereunder shall be taken at such times that are reasonably mutually agreeable, must be representative of the Gas produced, and shall be analyzed using the most current Industry Standards. Buyer shall give notice to Seller of the time of such sampling sufficiently in advance of holding same in order that Seller may have its representative present. Seller shall be permitted to take a split sample. If Seller’s representative is not present, Buyer shall proceed with the taking and analysis of samples. The test samples shall be analyzed through the use of a calorimeter (acceptable to both Parties) that employs the Xxxxxx Principle of Calorimetry described in Research Paper #519, published by the U.S. Department of Commerce or by the use of gas chromatography equipment. The Gross Heating Value calculation will use the Btu values assigned to the various hydrocarbon components as adjusted and updated from time to time by Buyer using as a base those values set forth in the most current GPA Publication 2145 in effect at the time the Gross Heating Value calculation is derived under the provisions of the Agreement. Measurement shall be determined as delivered on a saturated basis or consistent with the basis applied to all producers delivering Gas to [***]. The percentages of the individual components through normal pentane shall be reported and heavier components shall be reported as hexanes plus. The components shall be reported in mole percent and ethane and heavier components shall also be reported in gallons per Mcf. All Third Party Gas which may be delivered by Buyer to the [***] Delivery Point for condensate stabilization shall be tested and the hydrocarbon content thereof determined or caused to be determined by Buyer, using the same sampling and test methods. Buyer shall provide a copy to Seller of the results of any sample analysis performed by Buyer pursuant to this Section 7.G. H. As long as the quality of Seller’s Gas at the Receipt Points meets the specifications set forth in E., above, the quality of the two-phase hydrocarbon mix gas delivered by Buyer to [***] at the [***] Delivery Point shall meet the quality specifications provided in the [***] Contract.
