and Council directed staff to proceed with the construction of the CNG fueling station.
Construction of the CNG fueling station is complete, and a gas transportation agreement with
Atmos Pipeline was approved by Council on February 20, 2018. To supply natural gas to the
station, staff is recommending approval of the attached natural gas purchase agreement with

Re: Limited Agency Authorization
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Please be advised that the City of Denton, Texas, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation
(Customer), hereby appoints Luminant Energy Company LLC (Agent) as its limited agent with
authority to act on its behalf in regards to the following functions effective the first day of
____April______ , 2018.
1. Agent is hereby authorized to obtain any information which Atmos Energy Corporation (Atmos
Energy) would otherwise release to Customer, which includes, but is not necessarily limited to,
all transportation rates of Customer, all information concerning historic gas transportation of
Customer, all available tax rate information with respect to the transportation of natural gas to
or for Customer, and any other information or documents in the possession of Atmos Energy
which pertain to Customer’s transportation of natural gas via Atmos Energy. Said authorization
expressly excludes pricing-related information of any other third party supplier of Customer.
2. Agent is authorized to make nominations of natural gas volumes on Customer’s behalf in
accordance with Customer’s transportation agreement(s) with Atmos Energy. Such nominations
will be based upon Customer’s historical usage and/or written or verbal instructions received by
Agent directly from Customer.
3. Agent may have access to the most timely information possible with respect to Customer’s daily
and monthly usage and/or transportation volumes, provided, however, Customer and Agent
recognize that it is Customer’s responsibility to maintain a balance between receipts and
deliveries, which includes the responsibility to know the amount of gas that is consumed at
Customer’s facility and the amount of gas that is delivered to Atmos Energy’s system on
Customer’s behalf. Atmos Energy provides certain volume information as a customer service;
however, unavailability or changes to such information will not constitute a waiver of imbalance
penalties or fees.
2
4. Customer and Agent recognize that this agency agreement does not relieve Customer of its
responsibilities pursuant to its transportation agreement(s). Any imbalances created by Agent
on Customer’s transportation agreement(s) shall be Customer’s responsibility to correct.
Moreover, if any transportation imbalances are resolved through Agent’s pooling agreement with
Atmos Energy and Agent fails or refuses to satisfy its imbalance obligations under such pooling
agreement, then Customer will be responsible for its pro rata share of the quantity of Agent’s
imbalance, based on the quantity of gas transported to Customer during the applicable period in
which the imbalance was incurred and the total quantity of gas transported under Agent’s
pooling agreement with Atmos Energy during such period. In such event, it will be deemed that
Customer has incurred an imbalance equivalent to such pro rata quantity, and Customer will be
responsible to resolve such imbalance in accordance with Customer’s transportation
agreement(s).
This Limited Agency Authorization shall become effective from the date written above and shall remain in
full force and effect until terminated by Customer or Agent upon ten (10) days' prior written notice;
provided that Atmos Energy will have the right to reject this Limited Agency Authorization at any time in
the event that Atmos Energy, in its reasonable discretion, determine that Agent will not be capable of
fulfilling all of its agency obligations hereunder. Notice information for said parties is set forth below:

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, City of Denton (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to
you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for
providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through your DocuSign, Inc.
(DocuSign) Express user account. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly,
and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to these terms
and conditions, please confirm your agreement by clicking the 'I agree' button at the bottom of
this document.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available
electronically to you by us. For such copies, as long as you are an authorized user of the
DocuSign system you will have the ability to download and print any documents we send to you
through your DocuSign user account for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such
documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of
any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may
request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time
change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures
only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and
disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must
withdraw your consent using the DocuSign 'Withdraw Consent' form on the signing page of your
DocuSign account. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive
required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use your
DocuSign Express user account to receive required notices and consents electronically from us
or to sign electronically documents from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide
electronically to you through your DocuSign user account all required notices, disclosures,
authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or
made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of
you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required
notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through
the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as
described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the
consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures
electronically from us.
