Agreement. This gas is paid for at the time of injection but will not be used until the heating

withdrawals the gas injected and expenses it based on the final injection WACOG multiplied by
number of therms withdrawn each month.

purchases postage from Pitney Bowes for the IGC postage meter at the Boise General Office
