(c)If Producer approves the Transitional Work, Gatherer will complete the Transitional Work prior to the commencement of the Mining Period at Gatherer’s sole cost and expense, subject to the terms of this Section 7.5(d). Following the expiration of the applicable Mining Period and Gatherer’s determination of the actual Transitional Work Costs, Gatherer

Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, to the extent that any curtailment is attributable to Planned Mining Operations, such curtailment shall not constitute a breach of any Gatherer obligations set forth in this Agreement.

(e)The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that in the event that (i) Gatherer (A) fails to timely deliver a Work Notice or (B) fails to perform the Transitional Work set forth in a Work Notice to the extent that Producer elects to approve the Transitional Work, then, in each case, any resulting failure or inability of Gatherer to receive all Gas up to the MDQ that is tendered to Gatherer (or that would have been tendered, but for such curtailment) shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 3.8, and shall not be deemed to be caused by Maintenance; and (ii) Gatherer performs the Transitional Work set forth in a Work Notice but such Transitional Work fails to mitigate the curtailment required by the Mining Operations, then any resulting failure or inability of Gatherer to receive all Gas up to the MDQ that is tendered to Gatherer (or that would have been tendered, but for such curtailment) shall be deemed to be caused by Maintenance, and Producer’s remedies shall be limited accordingly, until such time as a Maintenance Deficiency accrues pursuant to the terms hereof.
