These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported for assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses during the reporting period, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis, utilizing historical experience, consultation with experts and other methods it considers reasonable in the particular circumstances. Nevertheless, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. These estimates and other factors, including those outside of REX's control, such as the impact of commodity price volatility associated with global economic factors, could have a significant adverse impact on its business, financial position, or results of operations.

Current expected credit losses for trade receivables are estimated using a combination of the probability-of-default methodology and review of aging schedules. Trade receivables are measured collectively, with customers grouped on the basis of their credit profile and line of business, and consideration is given to individual receivables that may have different risk profiles. Probability of default rates are assigned to customers based on actual credit ratings or estimated ratings based on available financial metrics. Outstanding receivables are periodically reviewed and for any specific receivables deemed uncollectible, a reserve for current expected credit losses is recorded. REX's reserves for current expected credit losses associated with trade receivables totaled $2.0 million and $1.5 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. REX’s reserves for current expected credit losses associated with the contract asset totaled $1.5 million and $0.9 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Fuel Recovery Mechanism</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">REX obtains natural gas quantities from its shippers as reimbursement for fuel consumed at compressor stations and other locations on its system as well as for natural gas quantities lost and otherwise unaccounted for, in accordance with its tariff and applicable contract terms.

An impairment loss results when the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the asset's use and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount. Any such impairment losses at REX would be recorded as a regulatory asset until regulatory review regarding recoverability through the rate-making process is complete, at which time REX will recognize the loss if it is determined to be unrecoverable or retain as a regulatory asset and recover through its rates.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Examples of long-lived asset impairment indicators include:</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">•</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:13.8pt">a significant decrease in the market value of a long-lived asset or group;</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">•</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:13.8pt">a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset or asset group is being used or in its physical condition;</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">•</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:13.8pt">a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate could affect the value of a long-lived asset or asset group, including an adverse action or assessment by a regulator which would exclude allowable costs from the rate-making process;</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">•</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:13.8pt">an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the long-lived asset or asset group;</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">•</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:13.8pt">a current period operating cash flow loss combined with a history of operating cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset or asset group; and</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;padding-left:36pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">•</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:13.8pt">a current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset or asset group will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">When an impairment indicator is present, REX first assesses the recoverability of the long-lived assets by comparing the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset to the carrying amount of the asset.

REX expenses amounts that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations that do not contribute to current or future revenue generation. REX does not discount environmental liabilities to a net present value, and records environmental liabilities when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable and costs can be reasonably estimated. Recording of these accruals coincides with the completion of a feasibility study or a commitment to a formal plan of action. Estimates of environmental liabilities are based on currently available facts and presently enacted laws and regulations taking into consideration the likely effects of other factors including REX's prior experience in remediating contaminated sites, other companies' clean-up experience and data released by government organizations. REX estimates are subject to revision in future periods based on actual cost or new information. </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Fair Value</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Fair value, as defined in the fair value measurement accounting guidance, is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, or exit price. The fair value measurement accounting guidance requires that REX make assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on the best information available. These factors include nonperformance risk (the risk that an obligation will not be fulfilled) and credit risk of the reporting entity (for liabilities) and of the counterparty (for assets). The fair value measurement guidance prohibits the inclusion of transaction costs and any adjustments for blockage factors in determining the instruments' fair value. The principal or most advantageous market should be considered from the perspective of the reporting entity.

into an amendment and restatement (the "Amendment and Restatement") of its existing $150 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility ("the revolving credit facility") with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, which extended the maturity date of the revolving credit facility to November 18, 2024. The revolving credit facility includes a $75 million sublimit for letters of credit and a $20 million sublimit for swing line loans and may be used for working capital and general company purposes. The revolving credit facility also contains an accordion feature whereby REX can increase the size of the credit facility to an aggregate of $200 million, subject to receiving increased or new commitments from lenders and the satisfaction of certain other conditions precedent. As of December 31, 2022, there were no outstanding borrowings issued under the revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2022, REX was in compliance with the covenants required under the revolving credit facility.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest, at REX's option, at either (a) a base rate, which will be a rate equal to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the U.S. federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (iii) a one-month reserve adjusted Eurodollar rate plus 1.00% or (b) a reserve adjusted Eurodollar rate, plus, in each case, an applicable margin.

REX records deferred income taxes for significant differences between book and taxable income. The Members report on their separate federal income tax returns the appropriate share of revenues and expenses. On March 15, 2018, in Docket No. PL17-1-000, the FERC issued a revised Policy Statement finding that interstate natural gas pipelines held by Master Limited Partnerships are no longer permitted to recover an income tax allowance in their cost of service.

promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, and is the unit of account in ASC Topic 606. A contract's transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The majority of REX's contracts have a single performance obligation and are billed and collected monthly. These performance obligations typically include an obligation to stand ready to provide natural gas transportation service over the life of the contract, which is a series.

Recourse rates are calculated based on the cost of service being provided and include an allowable rate of return for the pipeline. Recourse rates are established through a FERC rate proceeding and remain effective until a subsequent rate proceeding is filed and approved by the FERC. Discount rates are offered at a discount to the then-effective maximum recourse rate, subject to a minimum rate floor set forth in the pipeline's tariff. Discount rates are typically effective for an established term and can vary based on adjustments to the underlying recourse rate. Negotiated rates can be higher or lower than the then-effective maximum recourse rate, subject to agreement between the pipeline and shipper and approval by the FERC. Negotiated rates are also entered into for a defined term but do not change based on adjustments in the applicable recourse rate for that type of service.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> The majority of services provided by REX are contracted under negotiated rate agreements.

REX then pursued an appeal of the rejection and other rulings in the case until such appeal was ultimately dismissed in August 2022. In connection with the dismissal, REX filed a notice of contract termination with the FERC on August 16, 2022, which FERC accepted on September 16, 2022, with respect to Ultra’s transportation services agreement and REX will receive no further proceeds from Ultra’s bankruptcy estate. </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">EM Energy Ohio, LLC</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-indent:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On May 15, 2019, EM Energy Ohio, LLC ("EM Energy") and certain of its affiliates filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. EM Energy had a firm transportation service agreement with REX for 50,000 Dth/d through January 5, 2032. REX and EM Energy have stipulated in the bankruptcy proceeding that the termination date of the transportation service agreement is June 13, 2019. Following the termination, REX made a drawing equal to the outstanding face amount on the letter of credit supporting EM Energy's obligations under the transportation service agreement and received approximately $16.2 million in June 2019. A portion of the proceeds was used to settle outstanding accounts receivable for transportation services provided to EM Energy and the remaining $13.9 million was recognized as income by REX. In December 2021, REX and EM Energy entered into a stipulation settling REX's claim against the bankruptcy estate of EM Energy for approximately $35.4 million.

Through a services agreement (Services Agreement), ONEOK provides to us similar services that it provides to other affiliates and operates our assets according to our pipeline’s operating agreement. ONEOK and its affiliates provide a variety of services to us under the Services Agreement, including cash management and financial services, employee benefits provided through ONEOK’s benefit plans, legal and administrative services, insurance and office space leased in ONEOK’s headquarters building and other field locations. Where costs are specifically incurred on behalf of us, the costs are billed directly to us by ONEOK. In other situations, the costs may be allocated to us through a variety of methods, depending upon the nature of the expense and activities. For example, a service that applies equally to all employees is allocated based upon the number of employees; however, an expense benefiting us, but which has no direct basis for allocation, is allocated by the modified Distrigas method, a widely recognized method of allocating cost, which uses a combination of ratios that includes gross plant and investment, operating income and payroll expense. </span></div><div style="margin-top:2pt;padding-right:18pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="margin-top:2pt;padding-right:18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">We hold a certificate of public convenience and necessity from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) that authorizes us to construct and operate our pipeline system, which includes performing routine construction/abandonment activities and providing transportation service for our customers.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Government Regulation</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> - The accompanying regulatory-basis financial statements are presented in accordance with the accounting requirements of the FERC as set forth in its applicable Uniform System of Accounts and published accounting releases, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).

Adjustments to transaction prices or quoted market prices may be required in illiquid or disorderly markets in order to estimate fair value. Alternative valuation techniques may be appropriate under the circumstances to determine the value that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction. Market participants are assumed to be independent, knowledgeable, able and willing to transact an exchange and not under duress. Nonperformance or credit risk is considered when determining fair value. Considerable judgment may be required in interpreting market data used to develop the estimates of fair value.

When available, a readily observable quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security in an active market is used to record the fair value. A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Upon the occurrence of a triggering event, the asset is reviewed to assess whether the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected from the use of the asset plus the residual value from the ultimate disposal exceeds the carrying value of the asset. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated recoverable amounts, the asset is written down to the estimated fair value and any resulting impairment loss is reflected on the Statement of Income.

Payments for amounts billed are generally due from the customer within 30 days of billing. Rates charged for energy products and services are established by regulators that establish the transaction price as well as the allocation of price amongst the separate performance obligations. When preliminary regulated rates are permitted to be billed prior to final approval by the applicable regulator, certain revenue collected may be subject to refund and a liability for estimated refunds is accrued. In the event one of the parties to a contract has performed before the other, CGT would recognize a contract asset or contract liability depending on the relationship between CGT's performance and the customer's payment. CGT has recognized contract liabilities of $14.3 million and $15.2 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, due to CGT's performance on certain contracts.

Changes in deferred income tax assets and liabilities associated with certain property-related basis differences and other various differences that CGT's regulated businesses deems probable to be passed on to its customers are charged or credited directly to a regulatory asset or liability and will be included in regulated rates when the temporary differences reverse.

CGT’s income tax returns are subject to continuous examinations by federal, state and local income tax authorities that may give rise to different interpretations of these complex laws and regulations. Due to the nature of the examination process, it generally takes years before these examinations are completed and these matters are resolved. CGT recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that is more-likely-than-not to be realized upon ultimate settlement. Uncertain tax positions associated with temporary differences are not recognized for FERC reporting.

Credit risk may be concentrated to the extent CGT’s counterparties have similar economic, industry or other characteristics and due to direct or indirect relationships among the counterparties. Before entering into a transaction, CGT analyzes the financial condition of each significant wholesale counterparty, establishes limits on the amount of unsecured credit to be extended to each counterparty and evaluates the appropriateness of unsecured credit limits on an ongoing basis. To further mitigate wholesale counterparty credit risk, CGT enters into netting and collateral arrangements that may include margining and cross-product netting agreements and obtains third-party guarantees, letters of credit and cash deposits.

Together, the two amendments have the effect of rescinding the methane portion of the NSPS for all segments of the oil and natural gas sector, rescinding all NSPS for the transmission and storage segment and modifying some of the NSPS volatile organic compound requirements for facilities in the production and processing segments. On June 30, 2021, President Biden signed into law a joint resolution of Congress, adopted under the Congressional Review Act, disapproving the August 2020 rule. The resolution reinstated the 2012 volatile organic compounds standards and the 2016 volatile organic compounds and methane standards for the oil and natural gas transmission and storage segments, as well as the methane standards for the production and processing segments of the oil and gas sector. On November 2, 2021, the EPA proposed rules that would reduce methane emissions from both new and existing sources in the oil and natural gas industry. The proposals would expand and strengthen emissions reduction requirements for new, modified and reconstructed oil and natural gas sources and would require states to reduce methane emissions from existing sources nationwide. The EPA took comment on the proposed rules through January 31, 2022. The EPA issued a supplemental proposal in November 2022 to further strengthen emission reduction requirements and intends to finalize the rules by fall 2023.

The Company’s system extends to markets located mainly in Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, and Indiana. The Company’s natural gas pipeline also connects with numerous other natural gas pipelines, providing customers with access to diverse sources of North American supply, including Western Canada and the Rocky Mountain region, and to a variety of end user markets in the midwestern and northeastern United States (U.S.). The Company also owns and operates regulated underground natural gas storage facilities in Michigan.</span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">In addition, the Company owns TransCanada USA Pipeline Services LLC (TransCanada USA), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company that serves to allocate management, administrative, and other service costs to TC Energy’s U.S. pipelines (U.S. pipelines) and other businesses.

Under this method, assets with similar lives and characteristics are grouped and depreciated as one asset. The depreciation rate is applied to the total cost of the group until its net book value equals its salvage value. All asset groups are depreciated using depreciation rates approved by FERC in the Company’s last rate proceeding. Currently, the Company’s depreciation rates vary from 1% to 20% per year. Using these rates, the remaining depreciable life of these assets ranges from 1 to 41 years.</span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt;text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company collects estimated future removal costs related to its regulated natural gas transmission and storage facilities in its current rates (also known as “negative salvage”).

This carrying cost includes a return on the investment financed by debt and equity allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC). AFUDC is calculated based on the Company’s average cost of debt and equity. Capitalized carrying costs for AFUDC debt and equity are reflected as an increase in the cost of the asset on the balance sheets. Capitalized AFUDC debt amounts are included as a reduction of interest charges and equity amounts are included in other income, in the statement of income.</span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">(g)    Revenue Recognition</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">The Company’s revenues are primarily generated from transportation and storage services. Revenues for all services are based on the quantity of gas delivered or subscribed at a price specified in a contract. For the Company’s transportation and storage services, reservation revenues are recognized on firm contracted capacity ratably over the contract period regardless of the amount of natural gas that is transported or stored. For interruptible or volumetric based services, the Company recognizes revenues when the service is performed. The Company utilizes the practical expedient of recognizing revenue as invoiced. Revenues are invoiced and paid monthly. The Company does not take ownership of the gas that it transports or stores. The Company is subject to FERC regulations, and as a result, revenues the Company collects may be subject to refund in a rate proceeding. Allowances for these potential refunds are recognized using management’s best estimate based on the facts and circumstances of the proceeding. Any allowances that are recognized during the proceeding process are refunded at the time a regulatory decision becomes final. As of December 31, 2022, there is a refund provision of approximately $55.6 million, including interest of $0.5 million reflected in these financial statements in FERC Account No. 229 "Accumulated Provision for Rate Refunds" related to the Company's rate proceeding as described in Note 6(c) Regulatory Matters. Accordingly, the revenues presented in the statement of income as of December 31, 2022 are net of the $55.1 million revenue refund provision. </span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">(h)    Commitments and Contingencies</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Environmental Costs</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">The Company records its environmental liabilities at their undiscounted amounts in the balance sheets in other current and long term liabilities when environmental assessments indicate that remediation efforts are probable, and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Estimates of the Company’s environmental liabilities are based on currently available facts, existing technology, and presently enacted laws and regulations taking into consideration the likely effects of other societal and economic factors. These amounts also consider prior experience in remediating contaminated sites, other companies’ cleanup experience, and data released by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or other organizations. The Company’s environmental liabilities represent a combination of two estimation methodologies. First, the most likely estimate method is used when a scenario, similar grouping, or cluster of outcomes have an outcome probability that is significantly greater than all other outcomes. Otherwise, the expected value estimate method is used. Both estimation methodologies use a Monte Carlo simulation that considers distributions for variable quantities and cost factors that have significant impact to the overall cost estimates. Estimates are subject to revision in future periods based on actual costs or new circumstances. The Company capitalizes costs that benefit future periods and recognizes a current period expense when cleanup efforts do not benefit future periods. At December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had an environmental liability of $5.4 million and $5.8 million respectively. </span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company evaluates any amounts paid directly or reimbursed by government sponsored programs and potential recoveries or reimbursements of remediation costs from third parties, including insurance coverage, separately from the Company’s environmental liabilities.

This method requires the recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates at the balance sheet date that are anticipated to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Changes to these balances are recognized in income in the period during which they occur, except for changes in balances subject to rate-regulated accounting, which are recorded as regulatory liabilities or assets.</span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt;text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company is party to a federal tax sharing agreement with TCPL USA.

Pursuant to the tax sharing agreement, the Company settles its tax liability/benefit with TCPL USA. For states that require combined/consolidated returns, the Company is included with certain TC Energy affiliates and settles its tax liabilities/benefit with TCPL USA. For all other state returns, the Company files and pays its tax liabilities directly to the taxing jurisdictions. The Company had a federal tax related payable due to TCPL USA at year end December 31, 2022 and 2021 of $17.7 million and $45.4 million, respectively.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company evaluates its tax positions for all jurisdictions and for all years where the statute of limitations has not expired to determine whether they meet a more likely than not threshold (i.e., greater than a 50% likelihood of a tax position being sustained under examination) prior to recording a benefit for its tax positions. Additionally, for tax positions meeting this more likely than not threshold, the amount of benefit is limited to the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% probability of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

represent the difference between the amount of natural gas delivered to or received from a pipeline system and the amount of natural gas scheduled to be delivered or received at current market prices. We value these imbalances by applying the difference between the measured quantities of natural gas delivered to or received from our shippers and operators to a monthly average rate calculated using the same spot price indices as the Company’s FERC approved cashout mechanism. We have classified the fair value of natural gas imbalances as a Level 2 in the “Fair Value Hierarchy,” as the valuation approach includes quoted prices in the market index and observable volumes for the imbalance.</span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt;text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div
