GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
                                  (Continued)
   
   
      17.6  Failure to Comply with OFO.  If Customer or agent fails to
            comply with the terms of an OFO, for any reason other than force
            majeure on an upstream or downstream pipeline, such Customer
            shall be:  (a) liable for any damages including, but not limited
            to direct, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages incurred
            by Seller or any other affected party as a result of such
            failure.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
            Section 17.6, if Customer is required to make a nomination
            pursuant to an OFO, unless critical circumstances dictate
            otherwise, no damages and/or penalties will be assessed unless
            Customer is given the opportunity to correct the circumstances
            giving rise to the OFO.
   
      17.7  Sellers Liability for OFOs.  Seller shall not be liable to any
            person for any costs, damages or other liability associated with
            the issuance of, or the failure to issue, any OFOs, provided,
            however, Seller shall be liable for acts of negligence or undue
            discrimination, such standards to be judged in light of the
            emergency conditions under which OFOs are issued.
   
      17.8  Sellers Scheduling Authority.  Seller shall have the right to
            act as a scheduling agent for a Customers account if (a) the
            Customer refuses to schedule Gas injections or withdrawals as
            specified by an OFO issued pursuant to Section 17.4(a); or
            (b), above, if Seller requires additional quantities in less
            than the twenty-four (24) hour notice period normally required
            for an OFO, and the Customer has refused a verbal request to
            schedule the required quantity of Gas.
