through September 30 (Injection Period) shall be made on a uniform monthly basis
to the extent practicable up to the Customer's MSQ. Storage injections under
this service made after October 1 of each year shall only be subject to the same
injection schedule as FSS during periods when Gulf South has issued an

in section 2(g) of this rate schedule. Should CUSTOMER desire a change in the
Seasonal Daily Contract Demand. CUSTOMER shall notify Gulf South in writing of
the amount of the increase or decrease and of the date CUSTOMER desires the

changed quantities of gas requested in CUSTOMER's notice, the Contract Demand
shall remain unchanged. Gulf South shall review CUSTOMER's request within thirty
(30) days subject to the Tariff. Nothing herein shall require Gulf South to
install equipment or facilities for new or additional service.

merchantable and of a quality sufficient to meet the standards in the Tariff.

Operating Pressure. Gulf South shall not be obligated to maintain pressure in
excess of the contract delivery pressure shown in Exhibit B or the Maximum
Allowable Operating Pressure of Gulf South's system, as set by the appropriate
governmental agency, whichever is less.

benefit of the respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns of the
parties hereto. Except as provided in the General Terms and Conditions of the
Tariff, neither party may assign, pledge or otherwise transfer or convey its
rights, obligations or interests hereunder for any purpose without the prior
