Enchilada Gas Pipeline, L.L.C., or Enchilada, an affiliate of Enbridge (U.S.) Inc., or EUS, and Hess Garden Banks Gas Gathering Inc., an affiliate of Amerada Hess Corporation, or Hess, were the two member companies holding 80% and 20% membership interests, respectively. Effective January 1, 2005, Garden Banks became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Enchilada. On March 18, 2005, EUS completed the acquisition of the 20% minority interest held by Hess. Effective November 1, 2005, Enchilada transferred its ownership of Garden Banks to Enbridge Offshore (Gas Transmission) L.L.C.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:117%">Garden Banks is engaged in the transmission of natural gas in the Gulf of Mexico of the United States of America. Its principal assets consist of the Garden Banks Gas Pipeline, a 30-inch diameter offshore pipeline from a platform in the Garden Banks 128 block to a system-owned platform in the South Marsh Island 76 block.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:117%">Garden Banks Gas Pipeline experienced an outage related to an incident onboard the Garden Banks block 128 Enchilada “A” platform on November 8, 2017. Service on the pipeline downstream of the platform resumed on February 23, 2018, and service upstream of the platform resumed on July 11, 2018.</span></div><div style="padding-left:18pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:115%">2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies</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:118%">Basis of Presentation. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">The financial statements presented herein has been prepared in accordance with accounting requirements of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), as set forth in the applicable Uniform System of Accounts (USOA) and published accounting releases, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). Our accounting policies generally confirm to FERC USOA. The most significant differences between U.S. GAAP and the financial statements presented herein are: (1) classification of certain accounts on the Comparative Balance Sheet, Statement of Income and the Statement of Cash Flows and (2) accounting for income taxes on a regulatory basis using the stand-alone method of income tax allocation. </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:118%">Use of Estimates. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Financial Statements and Notes to Financial Statements. Although these estimates are based on our best available knowledge at the time, actual results could differ.</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%">Regulation. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Garden Banks’ primary business activities are subject to regulation by various federal and state authorities, including the FERC. The FERC exercises statutory authority over various matters such as construction, rates and underlying accounting practices, and ratemaking agreements with shippers. Garden Banks is subject to the provisions of authoritative accounting guidance for regulated entities. Accordingly, certain assets and liabilities that result from the regulated ratemaking process are recorded that would not be recorded for non-regulated entities under U.S. GAAP.</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%">Cash and Cash Equivalents. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Cash and cash equivalents are defined as all highly marketable securities with maturities of three months or less when purchased. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these investments. Cash is held in major banks in the U.S., which from time to time may exceed federally insured limits in the U.S. Management periodically assesses the financial condition of the financial institution and believes that any possible credit loss is minimal.</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%">Garden Banks has a cash management agreement with EUS. Any excess cash is converted into an associated company affiliate receivable on a monthly basis. EUS’ treasury function handles all routine cash management functions on behalf of Garden Banks.</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:122%">Restricted Cash. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:122%">Cash and cash equivalents that are restricted, in accordance with specific customer agreements, as to withdrawal or usage are presented on the Comparative Balance Sheet.</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:118%">Accumulated Provision for Uncollectible Accounts - Credit.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%"> Accounts receivable are measured at cost. Accumulated Provision for Uncollectible Accounts - Credit (account 144) is determined based on current expected credit losses. When we have determined that further collection efforts are unlikely to be successful, amounts are charged to this account and are applied against the impaired Customer Accounts Receivable (account 142).</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:118%">Utility Plant. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">Utility Plant is stated at the original cost of construction or, upon acquisition, at the fair value of the assets acquired. Expenditures for system expansion and major renewals and betterments are capitalized; maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Garden Banks follows the practice of capitalizing, at rates authorized by the FERC or stipulated in ratemaking agreements, an allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC) for the cost of debt and an equity return component. Depreciation of utility plant is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated service lives of the assets. Depreciation is recorded using the group method of depreciation which is commonly used by pipelines, utilities and similar entities. When property, plant, and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost, less net proceeds, is normally charged to accumulated depreciation (use Accumulated Provision for Depreciation, Amortization and Depletion) and no gain or loss on disposal is recognized in Deferred Gains/Losses from Disposition of Utility Plant.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">Included in utility plant are specified amounts of natural gas that must be maintained by Garden Banks to operate its natural gas pipelines. The natural gas that must be maintained in order for the pipeline to properly operate is commonly referred to as linepack. As is customary with most natural gas transportation entities, Garden Banks owns the natural gas maintained as linepack in its pipelines. The cost of natural gas that is owned by Garden Banks and used for linepack has been capitalized and is not depreciated.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">Regulatory guidance issued by the FERC requires Garden Banks to expense certain costs associated with implementing the pipeline integrity management requirements of the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Office of Pipeline Safety. Under this guidance, costs to (1) prepare a plan to implement the program; (2) identify high consequence areas; (3) develop and maintain a record keeping system; and (4) inspect, test and report on the condition of affected pipeline segments to determine the need for repairs or replacements, are required to be expensed. Costs of modifying pipelines to permit in-line inspections, certain costs associated with developing or enhancing computer software and costs associated with remedial mitigation actions to correct an identified condition continue to be capitalized. Garden Banks capitalizes certain costs such as sleeving or recoating existing pipelines, unless the expenditures are incurred as a single event and not part of a major program, in which case Garden Banks expenses these costs as incurred.</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:118%">Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">Garden Banks evaluates its assets for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recovered. These events include market declines that are believed to be other than temporary, changes in the manner in which Garden Banks intends to use a long-lived asset and adverse changes in the legal or business environment, such as adverse actions by regulators. When an event occurs, Garden Banks evaluates the recoverability of its carrying value based on its long-lived assets’ ability to generate future cash flows on an undiscounted basis. If impairment is indicated, for purposes of USOA, Garden Banks will adjust the carrying value of assets downward to fair value after seeking governmental approval or have the option to file a rate case.</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%">Asset Retirement Obligations. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The FERC requires the recording of liabilities equal to the fair value of asset retirement obligations (AROs) and corresponding additional asset costs. The obligations included are those for which there is a legal obligation as a result of existing or enacted law, statute or contract. Over time, the liability would be accreted to its present value, and the capitalized cost would be depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Upon settlement of the liability, an entity would either settle the obligation for its recorded amount or recognize a gain or loss.</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">Garden Banks’ assets are under the jurisdiction of the Department of Transportation and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), and the Bureau of Safety and Environment Enforcement, (BSEE). The BSEE requires the ultimate abandonment of offshore facilities when they are no longer in use or when suspension for future utilization cannot be justified. No AROs have been recorded based on insufficient information to reasonably determine the timing and /or method of settlement for estimating the fair value of the ARO. </span></div><div style="text-indent:33pt"><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Commitments and Contingencies. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Liabilities for commitments and contingencies are recognized when, after fully analyzing available information, Garden Banks determines it is either probable that an asset has been impaired, or that a liability has been incurred, and the amount of impairment or loss can be reasonably estimated. When a range of probable loss can be estimated, Garden Banks recognizes the most likely amount, or if no amount is more likely than another, the minimum of the range of probable loss is accrued. Garden Banks expenses legal costs associated with loss contingencies as such costs are incurred.</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%">Revenue Recognition. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Revenues from the transportation of natural gas are recognized when the service is provided. Revenues related to these services provided but not yet billed are estimated each month. These estimates are generally based on contract data, regulatory information, and preliminary throughput and allocation measurements. Final bills for the current month are billed and collected in the following month. Garden Banks does not own the natural gas that it transports and, therefore, it does not assume significant direct commodity price risk. See Note 3 for further discussion.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">Pursuant to the terms of its FERC tariff, Garden Banks charges each FT-2 shipper a reservation charge based on the shipper’s actual transported quantities or if less, based on 80% of the shipper’s contracted maximum daily quantity (MDQ) for the month. If a shipper pays a reservation charge in excess of actual quantities shipped, the difference is carried in a “revenue bank” and credited against future invoices where the actual quantity transported exceeds 80% of the MDQ. The difference that exists within the “revenue bank” is recognized as revenue at the earlier of when the volume is shipped or when it is determined that the likelihood that the shipper will make-up this difference is remote.</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:115%">Natural Gas Imbalances. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%">In the course of providing transportation services to customers, Garden Banks may receive different quantities of gas from shippers than the quantities delivered on behalf of those shippers. These transactions result in imbalances, which are settled in cash on a monthly basis. In addition, certain imbalances may occur with interconnecting facilities when Garden Banks delivers more or less than what is nominated (scheduled). The settlement of these imbalances is governed by Operational Balancing Agreements, (OBAs). Certain OBAs stipulate that settlement will occur through delivery of physical quantities in subsequent months. Garden Banks records the net of all imbalances as Gas Operating Revenues and carries the net position for each counter-party as a payable or receivable, as appropriate, and settled.</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:118%">Income Taxes. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">Garden Banks, as a limited liability company, (LLC), is not subject to federal taxation. Instead, the tax obligation incurred through operations of Garden Banks is reported on the tax returns of the member. However, for accounting and rate purposes, Garden Banks is treated as if it were a corporation that would require comprehensive tax allocation procedures. Comprehensive tax allocation procedures require recording a full provision for all income tax effects of temporary differences between the recorded amounts on the books of Garden Banks and amounts reported for income tax purposes on the tax returns of each corporate tax-paying member. The current tax expense or benefit recognized each year in accordance with FERC requirements will be relieved through “Retained Earnings” account (benefit) in proprietary capital in the period incurred.</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:115%">Environmental Expenditures. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%">Garden Banks expenses environmental expenditures related to conditions caused by past operations that do not generate current or future revenues. Environmental expenditures related to operations that generate current or future revenues are expensed or capitalized, as appropriate. Undiscounted liabilities are recorded when the necessity for environmental remediation becomes probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated, or when other potential environmental liabilities are reasonably estimable and probable.</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:118%">Fair Value of Financial Instruments. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">Garden Banks measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities by maximizing the use of observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. Fair value is the</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%">exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the </span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%">measurement date. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are not materially different from their carrying amounts because of the short-term nature of these instruments or because stated rates approximate market rates.</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:121%">Adoption of New Accounting Standards. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:121%">The following new Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) were adopted during 2021 and the effects of such adoptions, if any, are presented in the accompanying Financial Statements:</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Accounting for Income Taxes</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">Effective January 1, 2021, we adopted ASU 2019-12 on a prospective basis. The new standard was issued in December 2019 with the intent of simplifying the accounting for income taxes. The accounting update removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 Income Taxes as well as provides simplification by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial statements.</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:115%">FUTURE ACCOUNTING POLICY CHANGES.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Disclosures about Government Assistance</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">ASU 2021-10 was issued in November 2021 to increase the transparency of government assistance to business entities. The ASU adds new disclosure requirements for transactions with government that are accounted for using a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy. The required disclosures include information about the nature of transactions, accounting policy applied, impacted financial statement line items and significant terms and conditions. ASU 2021-10 is effective January 1, 2022 and can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2021-10 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.</span></div><div style="padding-left:18pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:115%">3.    Revenues from Contracts with 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:115%">Disaggregation of Revenue</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">All operating revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021 were earned from contracts with customers for the transportation of natural gas.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><table style="border-collapse:collapse;display:inline-table;margin-bottom:5pt;vertical-align:text-bottom;width:100.000%"><tr><td style="width:1.0%"/><td style="width:42.686%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/><td style="width:1.0%"/><td style="width:27.302%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/><td style="width:0.391%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/><td style="width:1.0%"/><td style="width:26.121%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Contract Balances</span></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:center;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Contract Receivables</span></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"/><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:center;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Contract Liabilities</span></td></tr><tr style="height:15pt"><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"/><td colspan="3" style="border-top:1pt solid #000;padding:0 1pt"/><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"/><td colspan="3" style="border-top:1pt solid #000;padding:0 1pt"/></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Balance as at December 31, 2020</span></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:center;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">$578,510</span></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"/><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:center;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">$855,720</span></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Balance as at December 31, 2021</span></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:center;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">$1,097,711</span></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"/><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:center;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">$318,708</span></td></tr></table></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:118%">Contract Receivables (included in Customer Accounts Receivables) represent the amount of receivables derived from contracts with customers.

Transportation revenue earned from firm contracted capacity arrangements is recognized ratably over the contract period.

The Company estimates the pipelines have useful lives ranging from 20 years to 65 years and the compression structures and equipment have useful lives ranging from 30 to 50 years.

The application of regulatory accounting allows the Company to defer expenses and income on its balance sheets as regulatory assets and liabilities when it is probable that those expenses and income will be allowed in the rate setting process in a period different from the period in which they would have been reflected in the statements of operations for a non-regulated company. The deferred regulatory assets and liabilities are then recognized in the statements of operations in the period in which the same amounts are reflected in rates. The amounts deferred are to be recovered over the regulated period. The amounts deferred in the balance sheets relate primarily to the accounting for income taxes, AFUDC, transmission retainage tracker on the mainline system, transmission and storage retainage trackers on the AVC system and post-retirement benefit costs. The Company believes that it will continue to be subject to rate regulation that will provide for the recovery of deferred costs.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Revenue Recognition</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Revenue is measured based on considerations specific in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue under transmission and storage and gathering services contracts when it satisfies certain performance obligations, as discussed below.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">The Company provides transmission and storage and gathering services in two manners: firm service or interruptible service. Firm service is provided under firm contracts, which are contracts for transmission or storage services that generally obligate the customer to pay a fixed, monthly charge to reserve an agreed upon amount of pipeline or storage capacity regardless of the capacity used by the customer during each month. Volumetric-based fees can also be charged under firm contracts for each firm volume transported or stored, as well as for volumes transported or stored in excess of the firm contracted volume, if storage capacity exists. Interruptible service contracts include volumetric-based fees, which are charges for the volume of gas transported, stored or gathered and generally do not guarantee access to the pipeline or storage facility. Firm and interruptible contracts can be short- or long-term in duration. Firm and interruptible transmission and storage service contracts are billed at the end of each calendar month, with payment typically due within 10 days. Interruptible gathering contracts are billed on a one-month lag, with payment typically due within 21 days. Revenue related to gathering services provided but not yet billed is estimated each month. These estimates are generally based on contract data, preliminary throughput and allocation measurements.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%">Under a firm contract, the Company has a stand-ready obligation to provide the service over the life of the contract. The performance obligation for firm reservation fee revenue is satisfied over time as the pipeline capacity is made available to the customer. As such, the Company recognizes firm reservation fee revenue evenly over the contract period using a time-elapsed output method to measure progress. The performance obligation for volumetric-based fee revenue is generally satisfied upon the Company's monthly billing to the customer for volumes transported, stored or gathered during the month. The amount billed generally corresponds </span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%">directly to the value of the Company's performance to date as the customer obtains value as each volume is transported, stored or gathered.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">For all contracts, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the judgment determined relative standalone selling price.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Contingencies</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company is involved in various regulatory and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. A liability is recorded for contingencies based upon the Company’s assessment that a loss is probable and that the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.

As such, there is uncertainty around the timing of any asset retirement activities.

We monitor the credit quality of our counterparties through review of collection trends, credit ratings, and other analyses, such as bankruptcy monitoring. Financial assets from our natural gas transmission and gathering business are segregated into separate pools for evaluation due to different counterparty risks inherent in each business. Changes in counterparty risk factors could lead to reassessment of the composition of our financial assets as separate pools or the need for additional pools. We calculate our allowance for credit losses incorporating an aging method. In estimating our expected credit losses, we utilized historical loss rates over many years, which included periods of both high and low commodity prices. Our expected credit loss estimate considered both internal and external forward-looking commodity price expectations, as well as counterparty credit ratings, and factors impacting their near-term liquidity. In addition, our expected credit loss estimate considered potential contractual, physical, and commercial protections and outcomes in the case of a counterparty bankruptcy. The physical location and nature of our services help to mitigate collectability concerns of our transmission and gathering customers. Our transmission and gathering lines are located in areas with limited service provider options, making them costly to replicate by other providers. As such, our transmission and gathering assets play a critical role in our customers’ ability to generate operating cash flows. Commodity price movements generally do not impact the majority of our natural gas transmission businesses customers’ financial condition.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:115%">We do not have a material amount of significantly aged receivables and there is no allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. </span></div><div style="padding-left:18pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:18pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:133%">Gas Imbalances</span></div><div style="padding-left:18pt;text-indent:-18pt"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">In the course of providing transportation services to customers, we may receive different quantities of gas from shippers than the quantities delivered on behalf of those shippers.

Imbalance payables are valued at current market prices. Settlement of imbalances requires agreement between the pipelines and shippers as to allocations of volumes to specific transportation contracts and the timing of delivery of gas based on operational conditions.

A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue, when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. A performance obligation is distinct if the service is separately identifiable from other items in the integrated package of services and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. An integrated package of services typically represents a single performance obligation if the services are contained within the same contract or within multiple contracts entered into in contemplation with one another that are highly interdependent or highly interrelated, meaning each of the services is significantly affected by one or more of the other services in the contract. Our service revenue contracts contain a series of distinct services, with the majority of our contracts having a single performance obligation that is satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by our performance. </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">Our revenues include contracts for natural gas transportation, and other related services with contract terms that are generally long-term in nature and may extend up to the production life of the associated reservoir.

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. The Amendment and Restatement, among other things, extended the maturity date of the revolving credit facility from January 31, 2020 to November 18, 2024 and reduced certain of the applicable margins and commitment fee rates in the pricing grid used to determine the interest rate and commitment fee. 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, 2021, there were $21.0 million in outstanding borrowings issued under the revolving credit facility.

However, since federal and state income taxes have historically been a cost component in rates allowed by the FERC, these taxes are included in the financial statements. The computation of the current and deferred income tax expense assumes the use of an accelerated method for calculating tax depreciation. 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. The FERC stated that it would address income tax allowances for other pass-through entities that are not Master Limited Partnerships in future proceedings. In July 2018, the FERC issued Order 849, which required interstate natural gas pipelines to make a one-time informational filing of Form No. 501-G to evaluate the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") and the Revised Policy Statement on interstate natural gas pipelines' revenue requirement. In August and November 2018, the FERC issued additional guidance in Docket Nos. AC18-115 and PL19-2 regarding the treatment of accumulated deferred income taxes for both accounting and ratemaking purposes in light of the TCJA. Consistent with this guidance, REX has recorded its deficient accumulated deferred income tax in Account 254. The balance is amortized to 410.1, Provision of Deferred Income Taxes, over the estimated remaining useful life of the pipeline.</span></div><div

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.

In connection with unpaid amounts outstanding under the transportation services agreements, REX made a drawing of a portion of the letter of credit supporting Gulfport's obligations under the transportation service agreements and received approximately $9.8 million in November 2020, which was used to settle outstanding accounts receivable for transportation services provided to Gulfport.</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, Gulfport and certain of Gulfport's affiliates entered into a settlement agreement to resolve the contested matters between REX and Gulfport, which settlement became effective March 9, 2021. The settlement modified Gulfport's transportation service agreements with REX as of the settlement effective date such that the total amount to be transported by REX equals 200,000 Dth/d at a weighted average rate of approximately $0.4625/Dth, or approximately $34 million annually. Under the amended transportation service agreements, 50,000 Dth/d will expire in January 2032, 149,000 Dth/d will expire in July 2033 and 1,000 Dth/d will expire in July 2035. As settlement of amounts unpaid by Gulfport prior to December 31, 2020, REX drew the remaining approximately $6.8 million on the existing letter of credit in March 2021. In addition, Gulfport paid REX the full amount of the existing transportation service agreements for the months of January and February 2021 pursuant to the settlement agreement, representing approximately $4.9 million per month.</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%">Ultra Resources, Inc.</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 14, 2020, Ultra Resources, Inc. ("Ultra") and certain of its affiliates filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. As of its filing date, Ultra had a firm transportation service agreement with REX for west-to-east service of 0.2 Bcf/d through December 31, 2026 at a rate of approximately $0.37 per dth/d, or approximately $26.8 million annually. Ultra moved the bankruptcy court for authorization to reject the transportation service agreement effective as of Ultra's bankruptcy filing date. On August 21, 2020, the bankruptcy court issued an order approving the rejection of the agreement. In connection with the rejection, REX made a drawing equal to the outstanding face amount on the letter of credit supporting Ultra's obligations under the transportation service agreement and received approximately $6.7 million in September 2020, which was used to settle outstanding accounts receivable for transportation services provided to Ultra. In addition, Ultra and REX agreed in September 2020 that REX's unsecured claim against the bankruptcy estate from such rejection equaled approximately $135 million for purposes of Ultra's bankruptcy plan. REX subsequently received a payment of approximately $750,000 from the Ultra bankruptcy estate in October 2020 in satisfaction of its unsecured claim under the bankruptcy plan. REX is appealing the rejection and other rulings in the case. To the extent REX is unsuccessful in its appeal, Ultra's transportation services agreement would remain rejected and REX would receive no further proceeds from the 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. As an unsecured claimant, REX currently expects to receive only a very small portion of its claim amount from the bankruptcy estate once paid, and the ultimate determination of such amount remains subject to the ongoing bankruptcy proceeding.</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%">Ohio Public Utility Excise Tax</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 Ohio Tax Commissioner has assessed REX a public utility excise tax on transactions concerning product that entered and exited the Rockies Express Pipeline within the State of Ohio. This tax applies to gross receipts from all business conducted within the state, but exempts all receipts derived wholly from interstate business. REX disputed its obligation to pay Ohio's public utility excise tax under the relevant Ohio statute, but made payments in the amounts assessed in order to preserve its right to appeal. On February 11, 2020, the Ohio Supreme Court reached a final decision adverse to the position taken by REX. As a result of this decision, REX no longer believes that the refund of prior payments is probable and accordingly recognized expense totaling $4.4 million and $15.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, 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-weight:700;line-height:120%">Environmental, Health and Safety</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 is subject to a variety of federal, state and local laws that regulate permitted activities relating to air and water quality, waste disposal, and other environmental matters.
