6 Pursuant to Section 3 of the Natural Gas Act, Pieridae requests the Department of Energy, Office of Fossil Energy grant permission to export natural gas into Canada for consumption and through Canada, after conversion in Canada into LNG, to (i) any country with which the United States currently has, or in the future may enter into, a free trade agreement requiring national treatment for trade in natural gas and (ii) any country with which the United States does not have a free trade agreement requiring national treatment for trade in natural gas with which trade is not prohibited by US law or policy. Pieridae requests exporting permission for itself, or to act as agent for others.

7 Why Canada? NAFTA – NORTH AMERICAN FREE TRADE AGREEMENT

8 Elimination of tariffs Is there a fee or duty for exporting gas? Like natural gas imports, the Canadian-United States FTA eliminated all tariffs and fees on natural gas exports from the United States to Canada. On August 16, 1999, the Mexican government abolished its four percent duty on natural gas imported into Mexico. Based on NAFTA, this duty was scheduled to be phased out by January 1, 2003.

9 The North American Free Trade Agreement ‘NAFTA’ is an agreement signed by Canada, Mexico, and the United States, creating a trilateral rules-based trade bloc in North America.

10 Transportation infrastructure NAFTA established the CANAMEX Corridor for road transport between Canada and Mexico, also proposed for use by rail, pipeline, and fiber optic telecommunications infrastructure. This became a High Priority Corridor under the U.S. Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991.CANAMEX CorridorIntermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act
