I worry that this might mislead NMNG that the parties can decrease the MAXDTQ by agreement rather than NMNG using capacity release procedures. However, the paragraph does not obligate TW to do anything & doesn't give NMNG any rights, since any change in the MAXDTQ must be by mutual agreement (and it's subject to available capacity). Since it does not seem to give either party anything they do not already get under the tariff, I think I would recommend we omit it. However, NMNG might insist on this or similar language to reflect the "deal" --- or at least the conversations of the parties. If that's the case, I suppose I would advise the marketing folks to limit the language of paragraph 4 to an increase in MAXDTQ and explain that any decrease would have to be thru capacity release.
