The Company sold call options in exchange for a premium, and used the associated premiums to enhance the fixed price for a portion of the fixed price natural gas swaps primarily for 2020 listed above. Each call option has an established ceiling price. When the referenced settlement price is above the price ceiling established by these call options, the Company pays its counterparty an amount equal to the difference between the referenced settlement price and the price ceiling multiplied by the hedged contract volumes.
