Winning bidders will be notified no later than 3:30 p.m. CCT Tuesday, October 25, 2016. Pursuant to ANR's tariff, all requests for service for the capacity available above will be treated under this open season. All bids submitted during the open season may be withdrawn and/or replaced with an equal or higher NPV bid during the open season period. Bids cannot be replaced with lower NPV bids.

ANR reserves the right to write the contracts as negotiated fixed rate bids. ANR reserves the right to reject bids that are less than maximum tariff rates or do not meet the minimums as established in this open season. ANR reserves the right to reject bids with deviations in monthly MDQ's or MDWQ's. ANR reserves the right to reject contingent bids. ANR reserves the right to reject any bid with a term end date before March 31, 2017. ANR reserves the right to reject any request that is incomplete, contains modifications to the bid form(s), or conflicts with ANR's FERC Gas Tariff. This open season is subject to ANR's FERC Gas Tariff and to all applicable laws, orders, rules, and regulations of authorities having jurisdiction.

Upon completion of this open season, all remaining bids will be considered binding until a successful bid(s) has been awarded. All final bids received during the open season will be evaluated on the Storage Net Present Value per MSQ (NPV) basis using the factors below. All bids should refer to Open Season #201.

NPV/MSQ = En [R*(1 / (1+i)**n)]/MSQ
En = Summation of months 1 through n (Sigma)
n = term in months
MSQ= Contract MSQ
R = Incremental monthly revenue of all services/paths in bid
i = Monthly Discount Factor (current FERC quarterly rate) This rate can be found at http://www.ferc.gov/legal/acct-matts/interest-rates.asp
These factors will be weighted equally. If more than one bid has the same NPV and requests for service exceed available capacity, then the capacity shall be awarded pro rata to shippers with matching NPV bids. In the event of a tie parties interested in this capacity may specify an acceptable minimum prorated MDQ, MSQ and MDWQ.

Parties interested in this capacity should submit a binding bid via email by sending their requests to erik_anderson@transcanada.com. Contact Erik Anderson to confirm ANR's receipt of any bid.
