(A) A natural gas company that has an approved exit-the-merchant-function plan shall continue to supply default commodity sales service for choice-ineligible customers and PIPP-enrolled customers after the natural gas company's choice-eligible customers have been transferred to retail natural gas suppliers pursuant to the approved plan. Natural gas commodity for choice-ineligible customers and PIPP-enrolled customers shall be procured by a competitive procurement process.
