PROCEDURE FOR BIDDING AND AWARDING
THE POSTED CAPACITY
Northwest will only accept electronic bids (see instructions below) for all of the posted
package of available transportation capacity.
Duplicate bids will be discarded. Maximum rate bids will be accepted for any primary term, subject
to available capacity. Discounted rate bids will be accepted only for the primary term specified
above. The posted capacity will be awarded to the shipper’s bid with the greatest economic
value, subject to the current Shipper’s right to exercise its ROFR option pursuant to GT&C Section
25.9 of Northwest’s tariff.
The economic value of each bid will be determined on a present value basis. In case
of a tie, each tied shipper will have the right to improve its bid by submitting an
improved bid within 24 hours of the bid close time. Such improved bids shall be
submitted electronically through Northwest Passage.
If a tie still exists, and the Shipper holding the ROFR option chooses not to match the best bid(s),
such capacity shall be awarded on a pro-rata basis to the shippers indicating a willingness to
accept a pro-rata share. All bidding and awarding will be conducted in accordance with General
Terms and Conditions Section 25 of Northwest’s Tariff.
