Contract No. 31050000


No-Notice Storage and Transportation Delivery Service Agreement

Rate Schedule NNT-1







	   	The Parties identified below, in consideration of their mutual promises, agree as follows:
	 
	1.  	Transporter: COLORADO INTERSTATE GAS COMPANY
	 
	2.  	Shipper: PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY OF COLORADO
	 
	3.  	Applicable Tariff: Transporter’s FERC Gas Tariff, First Revised Volume No. 1, as the same
may be amended or superseded from time to time (“the Tariff”).
	 
	4.  	Changes in Rates and Terms: Transporter shall have the right to propose to the FERC changes
in its rates and terms of service, and this Agreement shall be deemed to include any changes
which are made effective pursuant to FERC Order or regulation or provisions of law, without
prejudice to Shipper’s right to protest the same.
	 
	5.  	Transportation Service: Transportation Service at and between Point of Withdrawal and
Primary Point(s) of Delivery shall be on a firm basis. Delivery of quantities at Secondary
Point(s) shall be in accordance with the Tariff.
	 
	6.  	Delivery: Transporter agrees to transport and deliver Delivery Quantities to Shipper (or
for Shipper’s account) at the Point(s) of Delivery identified in the attached Exhibit “A.”
Minimum and Maximum delivery pressures, as applicable, are listed on Exhibit “A.”
	 
	7.  	Rates and Surcharges: As set forth in Exhibit “B.” For example, Transporter and Shipper may
agree that a specified discount rate will apply: (a) only to certain specified firm service
entitlements under this Agreement; (b) only if specified quantity levels are actually
achieved under this Agreement (with higher rates, charges, and fees applicable to all
quantities above those levels, or to all quantities under the Agreement if the specified
levels are not achieved); (c) only to production reserves committed by the Shipper; (d) only
during specified time periods; (e) only to specified Point(s) of Receipt, Point(s) of
Delivery, mainline area segments, supply areas, Transportation routes, or defined geographical
areas under the associated Transportation Agreement; or (f) in a specified relationship to
the quantities actually Delivered (i.e., that the rates shall be adjusted in a specified
relationship to quantities actually Delivered); provided, however, that any such discounted
rates set forth above shall be between the minimum and maximum rates applicable to the service
provided under this Agreement.
	 
	   	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 rates 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 that had been charged under a discount agreement exceeded rates which
ultimately are found to be just and reasonable.
	 
	8.  	For the period October 1, 2001 through Aprf 30, 2007:





	 	 	 
	Maximum Delivery Quantity (“MDQ”):

	 	637,144 Dth per Day
	Maximum Available Capacity (“MAC”):

	Maximum Daily Injection Quantity (“MDIQ”):
