Customer offers are required by 2:00 pm MST, Tuesday May 22, 2001

Customer offers must be reasonably open for acceptance by Wild Goose Storage
Inc. until 2:00 pm MST, Wednesday June 20, 2001 subject only to significant

offer sheets are provided in Microsoft Excel and are set up to calculate the
percentage of rack rate for your convenience. It is the intent of Wild Goose
Storage Inc. to negotiate and conclude contracts with the participants
providing acceptable offers in this open season as close as possible to June

will proceed with the expansion in early August 2001. Wild Goose Storage
Inc. reserves the right to not necessarily accept the highest priced offer
nor to award all or any of the storage capacity available.
