Your existing NTS Capacity Transfers1 are detailed in the following table:

Please could you indicate at which ASEP (Bacton UKCS or Bacton IP) you wish these existing RegisteredNTS Entry Capacity rights and existing NTS Entry Capacity Transfers1 to be held in future for the relevantperiods indicated using the attached proforma included within Appendix 1.

Please notex the total quantity of NTS Entry Capacity that you request at the two new ASEPs (Bacton UKCS and

Bacton IP) should be equal to the existing amount that you hold at the Bacton ASEP for each relevantperiod.

x the total quantity of NTS Entry Capacity Transfers that you request at the two new ASEPs (Bacton UKCSand Bacton IP) should not be greater than the lesser of either your existing quantity of NTS EntryCapacity Transfers or your Registered NTS Entry Capacity for each relevant period

x the Transferor user is to provide the Transferee and quantity by relevant ASEP by period (Month orQuarter)

Users can submit their completed proforma between 08.00hrs and 17.00hrs on each of thefollowing 10 Business Days (xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx) via the following facsimile number:Direct fax: +44 (0)1926 654059Please note the completed proforma should be returned to National Grid no later than 17.00 [xx]

No later than 5 Business Days following the final date for the return of the Appendix 1 proforma, National Grid willundertake the Initial Capacity Reallocation process which consists of the following steps:

a. National Grid will calculate the aggregate level of NTS Entry Capacity rights requested by Usersfor each Month/Quarter at the Bacton UKCS ASEP and the Bacton IP ASEP

b. Provided that the aggregate level of NTS Entry Capacity rights requested is below the relevantObligated level of NTS Entry Capacity at each of the Bacton UKCS ASEP and the Bacton IPASEP for a given Month/Quarter, National Grid will allocate that NTS Entry Capacity and NTSCapacity Transfers in accordance with the User’s individual requests

c. If in any Month/Quarter and at either ASEP, the aggregate level of NTS Entry Capacity rights isabove the relevant Obligated level of NTS Entry Capacity, National Grid will not allocate any NTSEntry Capacity rights to Users for that Month or Quarter (but will allocate for the other Months orQuarters that are below the obligated level)

d. National Grid will fax (via the Joint Office) the aggregate results of the Initial CapacityReallocation to all Users, and will fax directly the individual reallocations to the individual User foreach of the two new ASEPs. This note will contain:

i. Relevant Months or Quartersii. ASEPiii. Quantity in kWh/day allocated

e. National Grid will also inform relevant Users of any Months or Quarters which are not reallocatedas the aggregate level of NTS Entry Capacity rights requested was above the relevant Obligated

Initial Capacity ReallocationIf the Initial Capacity Reallocation fully reallocates all existing Registered NTS Entry Capacity for allMonths/Quarters to the two new ASEPs, National Grid will undertake the reallocation of Registered NTS EntryCapacity and NTS Capacity Transfers at the Bacton ASEP on your behalf as per your request and the processwill be completed. This will not require any User to undertake any actions on National Grid’s systems or forNational Grid to issue any further invitation to Users.

Final Capacity ReallocationIf, however, the Initial Capacity Reallocation does not fully reallocate all existing NTS Entry Capacity for allMonths/Quarters to the two new ASEPs, National Grid will issue [on dependant on when process started ], forMonths/Quarters that are oversubscribed only, a Bacton Capacity Final Reallocation Invitation to all Users who atthat time hold Registered NTS Entry Capacity at the Bacton ASEP for the particular Months/Quarters affected tore-indicate where they would wish their Registered NTS Entry Capacity rights and NTS Entry Capacity Transfers1to be held in future; either at the Bacton UKCS ASEP or the Bacton IP ASEP.

National Grid will endeavour to contact you if you do not respond or respond incorrectly2 however if a correctresponse is not received by 17:00pm on xxx, National Grid will assume that you wish to reallocate yourRegistered NTS Entry Capacity for each of the relevant months or quarters for which you hold Registered NTSEntry Capacity between the Bacton UKCS ASEP and the Bacton IP ASEP in the same proportion as given by thenew Licence Obligated levels at the two ASEPs and the Transfer quantity in the same proportion as the User’ssplit of their primary holdings.

Please notex the total quantity of NTS Entry Capacity requested at the two new ASEPs (Bacton UKCS and Bacton IP)

should be equal to the existing amount held at the Bacton ASEP for each relevant period.x the total quantity of NTS Entry Capacity Transfers that you request at the two new ASEPs (Bacton UKCS

and Bacton IP) should not be greater than the lesser of either your existing quantity of NTS EntryCapacity Transfers or your registered NTS Entry Capacity for each relevant period

x the Transferor User is to provide the Transferee and quantity by relevant ASEP by period (Month orQuarter)

Users can submit their completed proforma between 08.00hrs and 17.00hrs on each of thefollowing 10 Business Days (xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx) via the following facsimile number:Direct fax: +44 (0)1926 654059Please note the completed proforma should be returned to National Grid no later than 17.00 [xx]

No later than 5 Business Days following the close out date [25th August 2015] for responses, National Grid willundertake the Final Capacity Reallocation process which consists of the following steps:

a. National Grid will calculate the aggregate level of NTS Entry Capacity rights requested by Usersfor each relevant Month/Quarter at the Bacton UKCS ASEP and the Bacton IP ASEP

b. Provided that the aggregate level of NTS Entry Capacity rights requested is below the relevantObligated level at each of the Bacton UKCS ASEP and the Bacton IP ASEP for the particularMonth/Quarter, National Grid NTS will allocate that NTS Entry Capacity and NTS CapacityTransfers in accordance with the User’s individual requests

c. If in any Month/Quarter and at either ASEP, the aggregate level of NTS Entry Capacity rightsrequested is above the relevant Obligated level of NTS Entry Capacity, National Grid NTS willallocate the relevant NTS Entry Capacity for that Month/ASEP or Quarter/ASEP combination pro


rata the aggregate amount applied for by all Users. The Users’ remaining NTS Entry Capacityafter the proration has taken place will be allocated to the other new Bacton ASEP (Bacton UKCSor Bacton IP as relevant). If there is insufficient Registered Capacity reallocated to the proratednew Bacton ASEP to fully meet a NTS Capacity Transfer requested then the Transfer request willbe prorated in the same proportions as the User’s split of their primary holdings.

d. National Grid will write to relevant Users to inform the results of the Final Capacity Reallocationand show the User’s individual reallocations of NTS Entry Capacity for each of the two newASEPs in the format:

i. Relevant Months or Quartersii. ASEPiii. Quantity in kWh/day

e. National Grid will write to all Users to inform the aggregate results of the completed process

Please note if you do not respond or provide a non-compliant response2 by the required date National Grid willendeavour to contact you, however if a compliant response is not received by 17.00pm on xxxx a default will beapplied i.e. National Grid will assume that the User wants to reallocate its capacity in the same proportion asgiven by the Obligated levels at the two ASEPs and the Transfer quantity in the same proportion as the User’ssplit of their primary holdings.

No later than 5 Business Days following the application of the Final Capacity Reallocation process outlined above(and taking account the results of the Initial Capacity Reallocation process), National Grid will undertake thereallocation of your Registered NTS Entry Capacity and NTS Capacity Transfers1 at the Bacton ASEP on yourbehalf for all the months from 1 November 2015 until 30 September 2016 and for the quarters from 1 October2016 until 30 September 2031.
