	 Special Conditions:        
	  	 The Parties may agree to a fixed Gas Reference Price for Minimum Schedule Energy (as defined below) to be delivered and received during a specific
calendar month(s). If the Parties agree to a fixed Gas Reference Price, Counterparty shall contemporaneously provide CSE a non-amendable schedule stating the minimum amount of energy (which in no event shall be less than 25 MW) to be delivered and
received during all hours other than Off-Peak Hours during the applicable calendar month (the “Minimum Schedule Energy”). Upon verbal confirmation of the non-amendable schedule, Counterparty shall be deemed to have exercised the call
option for the Minimum Schedule Energy for the calendar month, and the agreed fixed Gas Reference Price shall apply to all Minimum Schedule Energy scheduled for delivery and receipt in such calendar month. The variable Gas Reference Price described
in the immediately preceding paragraph shall apply to all other energy (i.e., non- Minimum Schedule Energy) scheduled by Counterparty for delivery and receipt during such month. If the Parties are unable to agree upon a fixed Gas Reference Price for
any particular month, the variable Gas Reference Price referenced in the Gas Reference Price paragraph shall apply to all energy scheduled by Counterparty for delivery and receipt during such month.
