SERVICE AND RATES
4.0 Service Volumes and Terms
Subject to the provisions herein (including, without limitation, Section 5.2), during the term of this Agreement, WPL agrees to transport and deliver to Buyer the Transportation Gas Received, as defined herein, to a maximum of 8,000 dekatherms per day of Transportation Gas Received at a regulated pressure of 60 psig at the meterset. Buyer agrees that it will commence using WPL’s gas transportation service no later than May 1, 2005 (the “Target Commencement Date”). Buyer shall commence payment for such service pursuant to Clauses 4.1 and 4.2 below upon the Target Commencement Date or when the meter registers a measurable flow of gas for two or more consecutive days, whichever is earlier (the “Billing Commencement Date”).
WPL shall transport and deliver any volumes of Transportation Gas Received in excess of 8,000 dekatherms per day if approved by WPL prior to transportation and delivery and if facilities and capacity are available to do so. If either is not available, WPL shall nonetheless endeavor to provide the gas transportation service through the installation of additional Gas Delivery Facilities, at additional cost to be negotiated by Buyer and WPL. WPL’s approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Buyer and WPL agree that the Transportation Gas Received under this Agreement shall be governed by the terms and conditions of service of Buyer’s applicable Utility Service Rate Schedule and Riders, but that the Transportation Rate, and any associated surcharges, will be governed solely by this Agreement. Buyer is solely responsible for making arrangements for the Transportation Gas Received, that is, contracting and paying for the purchase of the natural gas and for the delivery through an interstate pipeline transporter of the natural gas to the interconnection between the Pipeline gate station and WPL’s Gas Delivery Facilities.
Effective with the Billing Commencement Date, the Buyer agrees to pay a minimum annual amount to WPL that is equal to the annual ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for 1,400,000 dekatherms of Transportation Gas Delivered, for the Transportation Rate components detailed in sections 4.1 and 4.2 below. This amount will be reconciled annually following the end of
3
each calendar year, prorated for the first year from the Billing Commencement Date through December 31 and for the last year from January 1 through the termination date, and any shortfall amount will be billed by WPL and paid by Buyer in accordance with Section 4.5 below. Any event within WPL’s control that requires curtailment will lower the above minimum annual billing volume of 1,400,000 dekatherms by 4,000 dekatherms for each day of curtailment.
4.1 Transportation Rate
Buyer will pay WPL each month a service fee of [*]. Buyer will also pay WPL [*] for each dekatherm for the first 1,400,000 dekatherms of Transportation Gas Delivered to Buyer by WPL. Each additional dekatherm consumed by Buyer above the 1,400,000 dekatherm threshold will be billed by WPL to Buyer at [*]/dekatherm.
4.2 Administration Charge
Buyer will pay WPL each month an Administration Charge of [*] to recover costs associated with billing and administration of their account.
4.3 FERC Mandated Non-gas Surcharges
Buyer is responsible for any FERC mandated non-gas surcharges including without limitation, Take or Pay Recovery, Dakota Cost Recovery, Gas Industry Transition Cost Recovery, Gas Research Institute Charges, and Annual Cost Adjustment Charges which are rightfully and properly assessed by the Pipeline or any other entity related to the Transportation Gas Delivered. Buyer will reimburse and indemnify WPL for any such FERC mandated non-gas surcharges billed by the Pipeline or any other entity to WPL with respect to any natural gas delivered to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.
4.4 Adjustment of Transportation Rate
If, at any time subsequent to the effective date of this Agreement, the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin (1) in any way indicates that it intends to review, or initiates an inquiry or proceeding to review whether the Transportation Rate is compensatory under Wis. Stat. Section 196.194(2), or (2) determines that the Transportation Rate is not compensatory, each party shall provide the other with immediate notice of any such PSCW inquiry, proceeding, intention, or determination and shall provide the other with any correspondence or other documentation related to any PSCW inquiry, proceeding, intention, or determination. The parties agree to negotiate in good faith to amend Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of this Agreement to resolve any PSCW concerns regarding the amount of the Transportation Rate.
4.5 Billing
WPL will ▇▇▇▇ Buyer by the terms of this Agreement on a monthly basis, with the invoice
* Portions omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
4
to be received by Buyer at least fifteen (15) days before the due date thereof. Buyer will remit payment for each invoice within fifteen (15) days after receipt of each invoice.
4.6 Taxes
Buyer shall be responsible for any and all taxes and royalties imposed by any governmental agency, if any, on WPL with respect to the Transportation Gas Delivered for the benefit of Buyer through the Gas Delivery Facilities.
4.7 Additional Services
Nothing in this Agreement will preclude the parties from entering into agreements for additional services to Buyer, and the payment therefor, to the extent the parties mutually agree.
ARTICLE V
SERVICE CONDITIONS
5.0 Title
Buyer warrants that it shall have good title to the Transportation Gas Received by WPL on Buyer’s behalf at the Pipeline gate station for transportation hereunder and that such quantities shall be free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and adverse claims whatsoever which would interfere with or make wrongful WPL’s transportation of same.
5.1 Balancing Service

5.2 Continuity of Service and Interruptions
WPL shall use commercially reasonable diligence to provide Buyer with firm gas transportation service, but shall not be liable for interruptions, deficiencies, or imperfections in service resulting from causes that are beyond its reasonable control. WPL shall not be held liable for interruptions, deficiencies, or imperfections in service resulting from inadequate gas supply. Further, WPL shall not be held liable for any interruptions, deficiencies, or imperfections in service due in any way to the Pipeline’s failure or inability to deliver gas to WPL at sufficient pressure in order for WPL to deliver the Transportation Gas Received to Buyer.
5
5.3 Conduct of Operations
Buyer shall conduct its operations in such a manner as to avoid any damage to person or property resulting from cessation or restriction of deliveries of transportation gas to Buyer hereunder.
