National Fuel Gas Distribution CorporationUtility Maintained EDI GuideA.INTRODUCTION1.Brief Description of UMEG ContentsNational Fuel Gas Distribution Corporation’s (“Distribution” or “Company”) Utility Maintain EDI Guide(“UMEG”) is designed to supplement New York’s EDI Standards documents (“EDI Standards”), i.e. theImplementation Guides, Data Dictionaries, Business Process Documents, etc. that comprise the EDI Standards. Themodifications to the EDI Standards approved in Order Approving Modifications to the Electronic Data InterchangeStandards, issued and effective March 2, 2015 in Case 12-M-0476 et.al. (“EDI Order”) include cites to UMEGs forthis purpose throughout.The UMEG contains references to Distribution’s website. For general purposes the URL t.aspx2.DisclaimersThose obtaining copies of the UMEG from the internet are responsible for the maintenance and monitoringof any changes. Notices of changes will be placed on the internet for convenience.Distribution assumes no responsibility should the UMEG holder fail to download notices in a timelymanner.Changes to the contents of the UMEG not set forth in Distribution’s tariff will generally be provided withat least thirty (30) days’ notice. Notice may be less than 30 days in circumstances where timely implementation ofthe New York Public Service Commission (“Commission”) Orders are required.Until UMEG Version 1.00 is issued, the UMEG is to be considered work-in-progress and updates will bemade without notice.If there are inconsistencies between any procedures contained in the UMEG and Distribution’s tariff, thetariff shall control.Page A-1Version 0.0107/19/2019

National Fuel Gas Distribution CorporationB.1.Utility Maintained EDI GuideEDI IMPLEMENTATION OVERVIEWGeneralOn July 23, 2001, the New York Public Service Commission issued Opinion 01-03 in Case 98-M-0667,approving policies and data standards for the implementation of electronic data interchange (“EDI”) in New York.The Commission’s decision, and subsequent decisions, continues the work of a collaborative industry effort thatbegan in New York in 1998. Several other Orders detailing transaction sets and testing procedures have been issuedsubsequent to Opinion 01-03.EDI is the primary means of transactional communications between utilities and Energy ServiceCompanies (“ESCOs”) in New York. Detailed information on EDI standards and protocols in New York is publiclyavailable on the Commission’s website at: http://www.dps.ny.gov/98m0667.htmNew York’s Uniform Business Practices ("UBPs"), initially adopted in Order Adopting Uniform BusinessPractices and Requiring Tariff Amendments, Issued and Effective January 22, 1999 in Case 98-M-1343 andamended from time-to-time, govern the working relationship between the utility and ESCOs. The UBPs requireESCOs to comply with EDI transaction set standards and processing protocols and/or use properly functioning EDIsystems as a condition of maintaining ESCO eligibility to serve customers. Additionally, the UBPs are incorporatedas an addendum to the tariff and applicable throughout, particularly in Service Classification No. 19 (“SC 19”) Supplier Transportation, Balancing and Aggregation (“STBA”).Distribution makes the NY EDI transactions Supported Transactions available as a communication optionfor Natural Gas Suppliers (“NGSs”) operating under MMNGS and/or SATS services that serve the MonthlyMetered Transportation (“MMT”) and Small Aggregation Transportation Customer (“SATC”) markets in itsPennsylvania service territory. While the UMEG generally reflects terminology used in Distribution’s New Yorkservice territory, some New York terms have Pennsylvania equivalents. Further, in some cases the UMEG usesgeneric terms. For example, an ESCO in New York is equivalent to an NGS in Pennsylvania and the terms“Marketer” or “Supplier” are often used to generically describe both ESCOs and NGSs. As used in the UMEG, theterms ESCO and NGS are interchangeable with the terms “Marketer” or “Supplier” unless noted otherwise.2.EDI Web SiteDistribution maintains a web page purposed for its EDI implementation. The web page includes contactinformation and a listing of notices pertaining to Distribution’s EDI Implementation. Suppliers and EDI ServiceProviders should stay current with such notices.3.EDI Contacts & Technical SupportDistribution has contracted with EC Infosystems for EDI Technical Support Services. With regard to theprocessing of EDI transactions, Suppliers who receive EDI services from EC Infosystems will not be afforded anyadvantage over, or be treated any differently than those who receive EDI services from other EDI Vendors.The EDI Contacts for Distribution are as follows:Types of EDI QuestionsTesting InitiationBusiness IssuesGeneral Technical &Processing Issues, Testing,Network OutagesPage B-1PersonPhone Numbere-mail AddressBeverly HoganNicole BarkerAndrea Vasbinder(716) 857-7950(716) 857-7541(716) [email protected] SupportTeam(516) 739-1001ext.

National Fuel Gas Distribution CorporationRegulatory Issues4.MaryannStankovskiUtility Maintained EDI Guide(716) [email protected] EDI Service ProvidersWhile some Suppliers have implemented EDI in-house, many utilize third-party EDI Vendors (“EDIService Providers”) to process EDI transactions. Should a Supplier wish to change their EDI Service Provider, some(possibly all) EDI Testing may need to be recompleted. To initiate a change in EDI Service Providers, the Suppliershould contact the Transportation Services Department (Attn. Beverly Hogan) in written form at least two (2)months in advance of the intended effective date in order to ensure sufficient lead time for EDI Testing. The writtenform should be an original signed letter on company letterhead, signed by a company officer. A courtesy email [email protected] would also be appreciated.5.EDI Trading Partner AgreementSuppliers will also be required to sign an EDI Trading Partner Agreement (TPA) prior to the exchange ofEDI transactions. The North American Energy Standards Board's TPA is utilized, subject to modifications particularto Distribution's implementation in each service territory. The form of TPA is North American Energy StandardsBoard, Retail Gas Quadrant Model Business Practice RXQ.6.1, adopted June 15, 2009. The form of TPA isavailable from NAESB through its website www.naesb.org. Absent mutual agreement otherwise, to execute a TPAthe Supplier must provide its D-U-N-S (Number) as the Legal Entity Common Code. The D-U-N-S (Number)from a Supplier’s parent, subsidiary or any other affiliate will not be accepted.The Transportation Services Department will initiate the process and administer the TPAs for Distribution.Changes to Supplier information contained within the NAESB TPA Exhibits, if any, must be submitted toDistribution in written form five (5) business days in advance of the intended effective date. The written formshould be an original signed letter on company letterhead, signed by a company officer. Except for DirectCustomers (as provided within the UBPs), all ESCOs in New York will be required to use EDI to conducttransactions covered by the UBPs, as applicable.The Transportation Services Department will initiate the process and administer the TPAs for Distribution.Changes to the Trading Partner Worksheet/Connectivity Profile (see FORMS in APPENDICES) must be submittedto the Transportation Services Department (Attn. Beverly Hogan) in written form five (5) business days in advanceof the intended effective date and may be communicated via email to the EDI Support Team (see Section B.3). Thewritten form should be an original signed letter on company letterhead, signed by a company officer. A courtesyemail to [email protected] would also be appreciated.6.EDI Service DisruptionsIn cases where a Supplier’s EDI system has failed unexpectedly or in cases of EDI system maintenance ofextremely limited duration, the Supplier should contact Transportation Services to determine whether it isappropriate to utilize alternative means to communicate business transactions that normally occur via EDI. Ifappropriate, the Company will provide alternative communications on a short-term basis only.Page B-2Version 0.0107/19/2019

National Fuel Gas Distribution CorporationUtility Maintained EDI Guide3.810SR - Invoice Transaction – Single Retailera.OverviewUnder Distribution’s New York tariff, the default billing method for customers transporting at ceiling rates 3is the Single Retailer Model, where the ESCO provides the consolidated retail billing to the customers. Under thisbilling model, sometimes referred to as Marketer Combined Billing (“MCB”), customers should contact Distributionfor non-billing matters; this is not full Single Retailer Model implementation. Nevertheless, customers served byESCOs providing MCB bills should direct billing inquiries to their ESCO. Transaction protocols for ESCO SingleRetailer Billing are posted on Distribution’s website and are included in the Appendices of Distribution’s New YorkGTOP. MCB is not available in Pennsylvania.Further details of Single Retailer Billing are available in Distribution’s New York GTOP and Tariff.Distribution issues a Summary Invoice to the ESCO on, or about, the fifth (5th) business day of each month,billing for customer level transportation charges and supplier level charges, as applicable. Prior to implementationof Distribution’s new customer information system in early July 2015, customer level transportation charges arecalculated using a Calendar Month Estimate (“CME”) of the prior month’s consumption. Followingimplementation, customer level transportation charges will be calculated using the customer’s cycle consumptionduring the period since the prior month’s Summary Invoice.ESCO are provided with consumption data, as applicable, on the meter read cycles.b.3Implementation Guide NotesSegmentSegment NameREF*OIReferenceIdentification(Original InvoiceNumber)REF*12ReferenceIdentification (UtilityCustomer AccountNumber)REF*AJReferenceIdentification (UtilityAccount Number forthe ESCO)N1*SJName (ESCO)N1*8SName (Utility)N1*8RName (Customer)ITDTerms ofSale/Deferred Termsof SaleBAL*P*YBBalance Detail (PriorBalance)Notes and CommentsCustomers transporting at non-ceiling rates may be limited to dual-bill or Utility Combined options.Page 810SR-1Version 0.0107/19/2019

National Fuel Gas Distribution CorporationUtility Maintained EDI Guide4.810URR - Invoice Transaction – Utility Rate Readya.OverviewIn both New York and Pennsylvania, Distribution provides a “rate ready” billing service to Suppliers.Under this service, the supplier provides a rate to Distribution to be applied to the customer’s cycle consumption todetermine the Supplier gas supply charges for the billing period. Distribution’s billing service, often referred to as‘Choice Billing’ and can also be described as Utility Consolidated Billing (“UCB”) or Utility Combined Billing.Further details of this billing service are available in Distribution’s GTOP and Tariff.Suppliers must provide rates to Distribution using a defined Excel format (see FILE FORMATS inAPPENDICES).Distribution’s billing service includes a Company Purchase of Receivables (“POR”) for billing amountsdue to Supplier from Customers. In New York, the POR feature is limited to accounts with consumption less than25,000 Mcf/year. In Pennsylvania, the POR feature is limited residential customers and non-residential customerswith consumption less than 1,000 Mcf per year under Rate Schedule SATC.Those selecting this option must execute a Consolidated Billing Service (“CBS”) Billing ServicesAgreement (“BSA”). The provisions of the BSA have been established through prior procedures and may bechanged prospectively. A standard form BSA is presented in the Distribution’s GTOP Appendices.b.Implementation Guide NotesSegmentREF*OIREF*11Segment NameReference Identification(Original InvoiceNumber)Reference Identification(ESCO CustomerAccount Number)REF*12Reference Identification(Utility CustomerAccount Number)REF*45Reference Identification(Previous UtilityCustomer AccountNumber)REF*AJReference Identification(Utility AccountNumber for the ESCO)REF*BLTReference Identification(Bill Presenter)REF*PCReference Identification(Bill Calculator)REF*VIReference Identification(Gas Pool ID)N1*SJName (ESCO)N1*8SName (Utility)N1*8RName (Customer)Page 810URR-1Notes and CommentsThe Company does not change an existing customer’s accountnumber as a business process therefore it does not support thissegment.Version 0.0107/19/2019
