the maximum daily quantity of gas which Natural is obligated to transport

node point. A node point is the point of interconnection between two or
more of Natural's pipeline facilities.
A segment is a section of Natural's pipeline system designated by a
segment number whereby the Shipper under the terms of their agreement based
on the points within the segment identified on Exhibit C has throughput
capacity rights.
The segment numbers listed on Exhibit C reflect this Agreement's path
corresponding to Natural's most recent Pipeline System Map which identifies
segments and their corresponding numbers. All information provided in this
