TPS SERVICE AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into this 8 day of February, 2006, by and
between COLUMBIA GAS TRANSMISSION CORPORATION (“Transporter”) and WASHINGTON GAS
LIGHT COMPANY (“Shipper”).
WITNESSETH: That in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the
parties hereto agree as follows:
Section 1.     Service to be Rendered. Transporter shall perform and Shipper
shall receive service in accordance with the provisions of the effective TPS
Rate Schedule and applicable General Terms and Conditions of Transporter’s FERC
Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No 1 (Tariff), on file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (Commission), as the same may be amended or superseded in
accordance with the rules and regulations of the Commission. The maximum
obligation of Transporter to deliver gas hereunder to or for Shipper, the
designation of the points of delivery at which Transporter shall deliver or
cause gas to be delivered to or for Shipper, and the points of receipt at which
Shipper shall deliver or cause gas to be delivered, are specified in Appendix A,
as the same may be amended from time to time by agreement between Shipper and
Transporter, or in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Commission.
Service hereunder shall be provided subject to the provisions of Part 284.223 of
Subpart G of the Commission’s regulations. Shipper warrants that service
hereunder is being provided on behalf of Shipper.
Section 2.     Term. Service under this Agreement shall commence as of November
1. 2007, or upon receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, whichever is
later, and shall continue in full force and effect until March 31, 2023.
Pre-granted abandonment shall apply upon termination of this Agreement, subject
to any right of first refusal Shipper may have under the Commission’s
regulations and Transporter’s Tariff.
Section 3.     Rates. Shipper shall pay Transporter the charges and furnish
Retainage as described in the above-referenced Rate Schedule, unless otherwise
agreed to by the parties in writing and specified as an amendment to this
Service Agreement. Transporter may agree to discount its rate to Shipper below
Transporter’s maximum rate, but not less than Transporter’s minimum rate. Such
discounted rate may apply to: a) specified quantities (contract demand or
commodity quantities); b) specified quantities above or below a certain level or
all quantities if quantities exceed a certain level; c) quantities during
specified time periods; d) quantities at specified points, locations, or other
defined geographical areas; and e) that a specified discounted rate will apply
in a specified relationship to the quantities actually transported (i.e., that
the reservation charge will be adjusted in a specified relationship to
quantities actually transported). Transporter may also agree to discount its
rate based on published index prices for specific receipt or delivery points or
other agreed-upon published pricing reference points for price determination
(such discounted rate may be based on the differential between published index
prices or arrived at by formula). A discounted rate based on such basis
differentials: (1) shall not change the underlying rate design; (2) shall not
include any minimum bill or minimum take provision that has the affect of
guaranteeing revenue, and (3) shall define the rate components to be discounted.
In addition, the discount agreement may include a provision that if one rate
component which was at or below the applicable maximum rate at the time the
discount agreement was executed subsequently exceeds the applicable maximum rate
due to a change in Transporter’s maximum rate so that such rate component must
be adjusted downward to equal the new applicable maximum rate, then other rate
components may be adjusted upward to achieve the agreed overall rate, so long as
none of the resulting rate components exceed the maximum rate applicable to that
rate component. Such changes to rate components shall be applied prospectively,
commencing with the date a Commission order accepts revised tariff sheets.
However, nothing contained herein shall be construed to alter a refund
obligation under applicable law for any period during which rates which had been
charged under a discount agreement exceeded rates which ultimately are found to
be just and reasonable.
Section 4.     Notices. Notices to Transporter under this Agreement shall be
addressed to it at Post Office Box 1273, Charleston, West Virginia 25325-1273,
Attention: Manager Customer Services and notices to Shipper shall be addressed
to it at Room 330, 6801 Industrial Road, Springfield Virginia 22151 Attention:
Ken Yagelski, until changed by either party by written notice.
