To date, we have executed 250 MMcf/d of long-term binding agreements during the open season with multiple Shippers. We have also entered into a firm option agreement to provide an additional 200 MMcf/d of capacity for a certain Shipper. Additionally, we continue to advance discussions with multiple Shippers, which collectively, have expressed interest well in excess of the 800 to 900 MMcf/d of expansion capacity. As a result, we have extended the open season through June 30 while we continue to work on securing additional binding commitments.

Additionally, we have received an affirmative FID notice on a processing plant expansion from the Shipper on the previously announced 230 MMcf/d firm transportation agreement. With the 250 MMcf/d of new binding agreements entered into thus far during the open season and the affirmative FID on the previously announced 230 MMcf/d firm transportation agreement, Double E&#39;s total contracted firm capacity has increased to approximately 1.9 Bcf/d.</p><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">As a result of the ongoing significant level of interest received from prospective Shippers, Double E has extended the binding open season through June 30, 2026.

In advance of the FID, Double E has recently executed a purchase order to acquire gas turbine compressors to secure the long lead time equipment necessary for the project and maintain the Company&#39;s end of 2028 targeted in-service date.
