Shipper with notice of such proposed expansion not less than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the expected in-service date of such proposed expansion ("Expansion Notice") and such Expansion Notice shall include: (i) the amount of the proposed expansion capacity; (ii) the expected rates and rules and regulations that will apply to such expansion capacity; (iii) the expected in-service date of such expansion/extension. The costs of any expansion shall not be rolled into the rates associated with any Pipeline capacity existing prior to such expansion. (b) To the extent permitted by Governmental Authorities, MPL will provide to each Shipper a first right, on terms and conditions specified by MPL that is consistent with this first right, to submit a binding nomination to ship, or otherwise pay for, a committed volume of Product on the expansion capacity ("Requested Expansion Volume Commitment"). The amount of expansion capacity available for volume commitments pursuant to this Section 6.6 shall not exceed ninety percent (90%) of the total expansion capacity. No later than sixty (60) days following the date of MPL's Expansion Notice, Shipper must commit to, in a form acceptable to MPL in MPL's sole discretion, its Requested Expansion Volume Commitment ("Election Deadline"). In the event that, pursuant to this first right, MPL receives binding commitments for volumes that exceed the expansion capacity available for committed volumes, each Shipper that submitted a binding commitment pursuant to this first right procedure shall be allocated the lesser of: (i) its Requested Expansion Volume Commitment, or (ii) the Shipper's pro-rata share of the expansion capacity available for committed volumes, which shall be calculated by multiplying (1) the Shipper's Proportionate Share, times (2) the expansion capacity available for committed volumes ("Expansion Volume Commitment"). MPL shall notify Shipper of its Expansion Volume Commitment within thirty (30) days following the Election Deadline, and the Parties shall promptly execute a new and separate transportation service agreement reflecting Shipper's Expansion Volume Commitment. Any calculation of an Expansion Volume Commitment shall be without regard to and shall not affect any Volume Commitment on pre-existing capacity. (c) In the event that any expansion capacity available for committed volumes remains after the procedure set forth in Section 6.6 is completed, MPL has the right, in its sole discretion, to offer such committed capacity pursuant to an open season in which all interested shippers will be given an opportunity to commit to transport a specified volume of Product on such remaining expansion capacity, subject to the terms and conditions specified by MPL pursuant to or in connection with such open season. 10 7 Confidentiality 7.1 From and after the Effective Date, each Party shall hold, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, agents, consultants, advisors, contractors, and other representatives (collectively, "Representatives") to hold all Confidential Information of the other Party in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that applies to such Party's confidential and proprietary information and shall not use such Confidential Information except in connection with its performance or acceptance of services hereunder and shall not release or disclose such Confidential Information to any other Person, except its Representatives. Each Party shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 7 by any of its Representatives. 7.2 If a Party receives a subpoena or other demand for disclosure of Confidential Information received from any other Party or must disclose to a Governmental Authority any Confidential Information received from such other Party in order to obtain or maintain any required governmental approval, the receiving Party shall, to the extent legally permissible, provide notice to the providing Party before disclosing such Confidential Information. Upon receipt of such notice, the providing Party shall promptly either seek an appropriate protective order, waive the receiving Party's confidentiality obligations hereunder to the extent necessary to permit the receiving Party to respond to the demand, or otherwise fully satisfy the subpoena or demand or the requirements of the applicable Governmental Authority. If the receiving Party is legally compelled to disclose such Confidential Information or if the providing Party does not promptly respond as contemplated by this Section 7, the receiving Party may disclose that portion of Confidential Information covered by the notice or demand. 7.3 Each Party acknowledges that the disclosing Party would not have an adequate remedy at law for the breach by the receiving Party of any one or more of the covenants contained in this Section 7 and agrees that, in the event of such breach,
