AMENDMENT 5/1/95
TO
SERVICE AGREEMENT
(EFT Service)
AGREEMENT made as of May 1, 1995, by and between NATIONAL FUEL GAS
SUPPLY CORPORATION, a Pennsylvania corporation, hereinafter called "Transporter"
and NATIONAL FUEL GAS DISTRIBUTION CORPORATION, hereinafter called "Shipper."
WHEREAS, Transporter and Shipper are parties to a Service Agreement
(EFT Service) dated August 1, 1993 (the "Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, Transporter's effective FERC Gas Tariff provides that Shipper
may request changes in the Primary Receipt Points under the Agreement, which
changes shall be accomplished by amendment of the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, Article II of the Agreement provides that Shipper shall pay
Transporter the maximum rate provided under Rate Schedule EFT set forth in
Transporter's effective FERC Gas Tariff, unless otherwise agreed in a written
amendment to the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, Transporter offered to its qualifying shippers a discounted
rate for the quantity of gas which a shipper requested, within a window period
which expired December 13, 1994, to allocate to the interconnection between the
facilities of Transporter and the facilities of Empire State Pipeline at Grand
Island, New York ("Grand Island") as a primary receipt point; and
WHEREAS, Shipper within the window period accepted Transporter's offer
to discount for a Maximum Daily Transportation Quantity under the Agreement
("MDTQ") of 12,812 Dth/day (the "Grand Island Quantity", subject to reduction as
described in Section 2 below); and
WHEREAS, Shipper and Transporter desire to amend the Agreement to
provide for a different rate and different Primary Receipt Points as set forth
below;
WITNESSETH: That, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. The first three pages of Appendix A to the Agreement, which identify
some of Shipper's Primary Receipt Points, are hereby deleted and
replaced by the three pages contained in the attached Appendix A.
2. As of May 1, 1995, the discount described below (the "Discount") shall
be effective. To the extent Shipper thereafter requests and receives a
reduction of the portion of his MDTQ which is attributed to Grand
Island as the primary receipt point, the Grand Island Quantity shall be
reduced accordingly.
3. The Discount shall consist of :
(a) first, to the extent permitted by then-current FERC order, a
discount of any applicable Gas Research Institute surcharges;
and then
(b) second, the reduction of Shipper's Reservation Charge (which
is a charge per month per Dth of MDTQ), such that the total
amount of the Discount shall be one dollar and sixty-seven
cents ($1.67) per month per Dth times the Grand Island
Quantity.
(c) The Discount shall consist of a reduction of the
then-currently effective rate which would, absent the
Discount, be charged to Shipper. If, for a month Shipper is
charged a motioned-in rate subject to refund, Shipper shall
thereafter receive a refund which takes into account the
amount Shipper actually paid for that month, to place Shipper
in the same position he would have been by computing the
Discount with respect to the finally approved rate.
(d) Transporter and Shipper agree not to seek before the FERC any
change to the methodology for (i) calculating the rate
applicable to quantities subject to the Discount (the
"Discounted Rate") or (ii) allocating costs or imputing
revenues to the service which is subject to the Discounted
Rate (the "Discounted Service"), including the allocation of
additional system costs to said rate and/or service. If FERC
imputes different revenues and/or allocates different costs to
the Discounted Service in future rate proceedings, the amount
of the Discount shall be subject to decrease on a prospective
basis from the date of the FERC order to fully reflect such
changes. If any such rate proceeding results in a settlement
which does not identify the applicable costs and revenues for
the Discounted Service, but if the written litigation position
of the FERC Staff does expressly identify such costs and
revenues, such litigation position shall be the basis for the
adjustment.
4. The Discount shall begin on May 1, 1995, and shall continue in effect
so long as the Grand Island Quantity remains more than zero, but for no
longer than the earlier to occur of:
(a) the effective date of termination of the Agreement (for this
purpose the Agreement shall not be considered as effectively
terminated if it is renewed or rolled over into another
service agreement); or
(b) October 31, 2014.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be
signed by their duly authorized personnel and attested by their respective
Secretaries or Assistant Secretaries, as of the day and year first above
written.
