General Terms and Conditions
Base Contract for Sale and Purchase of Natural Gas
SECTION 1 . PURPOSE AND PROCEDURES
1. 1. These General Terms and Conditions are intended to facilitate purchase and sale transactions of Gas on a Firm or Interruptible basis. " Buyer" refers to the party receiving Gas and " Seller" refers to the party delivering Gas. The entire agreement between the parties shall be the Contract as defined in Section 2.9.
The parties have selected either the" Oral Transaction Procedure" or the" Written Transaction Procedure" as indicated on the Base Contract.
Oral Transaction Procedure:
1. 2. The parties will use the following Transaction Confirmation procedure. Any Gas purchase and sale transaction may be effectuated in an EDI transmission or telephone conversation with the offer and acceptance constituting the agreement of the parties. The parties shall be legally bound from the time they so agree to transaction terms and may each rely thereon. Any such transaction shall be considered a " writing" and to have been " signed". Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the parties agree that Confirming Party shall, and the other party may, confirm a telephonic transaction by sending the other party a Transaction Confirmation by facsimile, EDI or mutually agreeable electronic means within three Business Days of a transaction covered by this Section 1. 2 ( Oral Transaction Procedure) provided that the failure to send a Transaction Confirmation shall not invalidate the oral agreement of the parties. Confirming Party adopts its confirming letterhead, or the like, as its signature on any Transaction Confirmation as the identification and authentication of Confirming Party. If the Transaction Confirmation contains any provisions other than those relating to the commercial terms of the transaction ( i. e., price, quantity, performance obligation, delivery point, period of delivery and/ or transportation conditions), which modify or supplement the Base Contract or General Terms and Conditions of this Contract ( e.g., arbitration or additional representations and warranties), such provisions shall not be deemed to be accepted pursuant to Section 1. 3 but must be expressly agreed to by both parties; provided that the foregoing shall not invalidate any transaction agreed to by the parties.
Written Transaction Procedure:
1. 2. The parties will use the following Transaction Confirmation procedure. Should the parties come to an agreement regarding a Gas purchase and sale transaction for a particular Delivery Period, the Confirming Party shall, and the other party may, record that agreement on a Transaction Confirmation and communicate such Transaction Confirmation by facsimile, EDI or mutually agreeable electronic means, to the other party by the close of the Business Day following the date of agreement. The parties acknowledge that their agreement will not be binding until the exchange of nonconflicting Transaction Confirmations or the passage of the Confirm Deadline without objection from the receiving party, as provided in Section 1. 3.
1. 3. If a sending party's Transaction Confirmation is materially different from the receiving party' s understanding of the agreement referred to in Section 1. 2, such receiving party shall notify the sending party via facsimile, EDI or mutually agreeable electronic means by the Confirm Deadline, unless such receiving party has previously sent a Transaction Confirmation to the sending party. The failure of the receiving party to so notify the sending party in writing by the Confirm Deadline constitutes the receiving party's agreement to the terms of thetransaction described in the sending party' s Transaction Confirmation. If there are any material differences between timely sent Transaction Confirmations governing the same transaction, then neither Transaction Confirmation shall be binding until or unless such differences are resolved including the use of any evidence that clearly resolves the differences in the Transaction Confirmations. In the event of a conflict among the terms of( i) a binding Transaction Confirmation pursuant to Section 1. 2, ( ii) the oral agreement of the parties which may be evidenced by a recorded conversation, where the parties have selected the Oral Transaction Procedure of the Base Contract, ( iii) the Base Contract, and ( iv) these General Terms and Conditions, the terms of the documents shall govern in the priority listed in this sentence.
1. 4. The parties agree that each party may electronically record all telephone conversations with respect to this Contract between their respective employees, without any special or further notice to the other party. Each party shall obtain any necessary consent of its agents and employees to such recording. Where the parties have selected the Oral Transaction Procedure in Section 1. 2 of the Base Contract, the parties agree not to contest the validity or enforceability of telephonic recordings entered into in accordance with the requirements of this Base Contract.
