       2.2   Character of Service

              2.21  Variable Load Points

                    Only one Variable Load Point shall be designated 
                    under each Agreement for service hereunder.  
                    Balancing Provider shall be responsible for 
                    identifying the location of the Variable Load Point.  
                    An OBA must be executed at the Variable Load Point.

              2.22  Balanced Point

                    A Balanced Point shall be created under each 
                    Agreement to facilitate this balancing service and 
                    shall be located adjacent to the farthest downstream 
                    milepost of any mutually agreed upon physical 
                    interconnection(s) which includes the Variable Load 
                    Point, as specified in Exhibit A(s) of the 
                    Agreement.

              2.23  Physical Interconnections Comprising Balanced Point

                    The Balancing Provider and Company shall mutually 
                    agree to the physical interconnection(s) that will 
                    satisfy the physical flow requirements of gas under 
                    this Agreement.  At least one of the physical 
                    interconnection(s) shall have flow control 
                    capability accessible to Company and shall be 
                    designated by the Balancing Provider to take swing 
                    quantities of gas in order that real time flow 
                    adjustments can be made by Company to assure that 
                    any daily operational imbalance at the Balanced 
                    Point is maintained at or near zero.

                    The Variable Load Point, designated physical 
                    interconnection(s) and the Balanced Point shall be 
                    treated as a single location for nomination and 
                    scheduling purposes.
