Page 12 <br />Gas Supply Proposal <br />for <br />The City of South Bend <br />A. Natural Gas Usage <br />I . IGS has created a natural gas usage profile for The City of South Bend, to include the <br />historical usage for each meter currently served. We will also continue to add to the <br />usage profile by garnering the meter read data from NIPSCO. Because the majority of <br />the City's usage is based upon weather and temperature, IGS normalizes the usage using <br />an algorithm that assist in forecasting usage ensuring the most proficient management of <br />the gas supply. <br />2. IGS does not and will not hold The City of South Bend to a certain usage requirement. <br />Regardless of weather and temperature, IGS is responsible for the risk of the usage being <br />higher or lower than what is hedged and/or estimated <br />3. IGS pricing is a burner tip price and includes margin, basis, line loss, overhead, taxes, <br />pooling, and balancing fees. There are no additional fees associated with procuring the <br />natural gas supply through IGS to include fees associated with daily or monthly <br />imbalances. <br />B.
