(a)

Amounts Payable to Third Parties. The Owner agrees to pay directly to Third Parties all costs and expenses payable to Third Parties in connection with the Management Company’s providing the O&M Services, the Construction Management Services and all other Services (including the payment of any insurance premiums payable in connection with the insurance required to be obtained and maintained pursuant to Section 2.5, Section 2.10 and Schedule 2.5 to the extent such insurance is obtained directly in the name of the Owner, but excluding the G&A Services), to the extent that such costs and expenses are included in the applicable Operating Budget and/or the Haynesville Expansion Budget and/or other applicable Project Budget. In addition, in the event the Management Company pays any costs and expenses to Third Parties in connection with providing the O&M Services, the Construction Management Services and all other Services (other than the G&A Services) provided by the Management Company, including insurance premiums payable in connection with insurance required to be obtained and maintained pursuant to Section 2.5, Section 2.10 and Schedule 2.5 attached hereto (collectively, “Third Party Expenses”), then the Owner shall reimburse the Management Company for all Third Party Expenses, to the extent such Third Party Expenses are included in the applicable Operating Budget and/or the approved Haynesville Expansion Budget and/or other applicable Project Budget; provided, that the amount payable by the Owner with respect to any Third Party Expenses that include any costs and expenses not solely attributable to the Assets (or the construction, operation, maintenance or management thereof) shall be the allocable share of such Third Party Expenses that are attributable to the Assets (or the construction, operation, maintenance or management thereof) as determined by the Parties on an equitable basis.

(b)

Amounts Payable to Management Company Personnel. In consideration for the O&M Services, the Construction Management Services and all other Services (other than the G&A Services) provided by the Management Company, the Owner shall, in addition to making the payments set forth in Section 3.2(a), reimburse the Management Company for the Owner’s pro rata share of all costs and expenses incurred (without duplication) by the Management Company in providing personnel to provide such Services to the extent such costs and expenses are included in the applicable Operating Budget and/or the approved Haynesville Expansion Budget and/or other applicable Project Budget, including the following costs and expenses (collectively, the “Reimbursable Personnel Expenses”):

(i)

compensation, including equity compensation, salary and wages (including payroll and withholding taxes associated therewith), provided, however, that the economic costs associated with equity-based compensation awards that are granted to Management Company employees by the Board of Directors of Regency GP, LLC, pursuant to the Regency GP, LLC Long-Term Incentive Plan, shall be reimbursed to Regency GP, LLC solely by the Owner, such economic costs to be determined in good faith by Regency GP, LLC;

401(k) costs and any matching 401(k) contributions;

(iii)

medical and health insurance benefits;

(v)

disability insurance (including benefits paid);

(vi)

workers’ compensation (including benefits paid);

(vii)

life insurance;

(viii)

any other employee benefit for which the Management Company incurs costs.

The Owner’s pro rata share of Reimbursable Personnel Expenses with respect to each individual providing Services shall be based on a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of hours in the pay periods ending during the preceding calendar month such individual devoted to matters relating to the Assets and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of hours such individual devoted to all work performed in the pay periods ending in the preceding calendar month. Where it is not reasonably practicable to determine the pro rata share of Reimbursable Personnel Expenses with respect to an individual, the Management Company shall make a good faith reasonable estimate of such pro rata share.

3.3 Adjustment of Payments.

(a) If the Owner or any of its Subsidiaries (x) at any time, closes any acquisition of assets or businesses or achieves Substantial Completion with respect to any Development Project (other than the Haynesville Expansion Project) with an acquisition cost or capital cost, as applicable, greater than one hundred million Dollars ($100,000,000) (provided, that with respect to any acquisition or Development Project by any of the Owner’s Subsidiaries, such amount shall be net to the Owner’s equity interest in such Subsidiary), or (y) during any period of time commencing on any Recalculation Date and terminating on the immediately following Recalculation Date (“Interim Recalculation Period”), closes one or more acquisitions of assets or businesses or achieves Substantial Completion with respect to one or more Development Projects (other than the Haynesville Expansion Project) with aggregate acquisition costs and/or capital costs, as applicable, greater than one hundred million Dollars ($100,000,000) (provided, that with respect to any acquisition or Development Project by any of the Owner’s Subsidiaries, such amount shall be net to the Owner’s equity interest in such Subsidiary), then the G&A Payment shall be recalculated in accordance with Annex 1. The Recalculation Date for any such recalculation of the G&A Payment shall be:

(i) in the case of any recalculation pursuant to clause (x) above, the first calendar day of the calendar month immediately following the calendar month in which the closing date of such acquisition or the date of Substantial Completion of such Development Project, as applicable, occurs; or

(ii) in the case of any recalculation pursuant to clause (y) above, the first calendar day of the calendar month immediately following the calendar month in which the closing date of the acquisition or the date of Substantial Completion of the Development Project, as applicable, that causes the aggregate amount of acquisition costs and/or capital costs of all acquisitions or Development Projects closed or completed during the applicable Interim Recalculation Period to exceed one hundred million Dollars ($100,000,000), occurs.

(b) In the event that the Owner requests additional Services pursuant to Section 2.6 and the Parties agree on the amount of the adjustment to the G&A Payment and/or Reimbursable Personnel Expenses payable to the Management Company with respect to such additional Services (which agreement is a condition to the Management Company providing such additional Services), then the G&A Payment and/or the Reimbursable Personnel Expenses payable to the Management Company shall be adjusted to reflect such agreement.

3.4 Payment Terms.

(a)

No later than ten (10) days following the end of each calendar month following the Effective Date, the Management Company will submit monthly invoices to the Owner for the Third Party Expenses and Reimbursable Personnel Expenses incurred by the Management Company during such calendar month. Payment will be due no later than twenty (20) days after an invoice is received by the Owner.

In the event an amount charged by the Management Company and paid by the Owner is later found to be more than the amount actually due, the Management Company shall refund the overpayment, together with interest at the Interest Rate calculated from the date of payment until the date of refund.

3.5 Taxes. In addition to other amounts owed pursuant to this Agreement, the Owner shall be responsible for, and shall pay, all taxes applicable to (i) the provision of the Services by the Management Company (whether or not such taxes increase or decrease in the future), and (ii) the ownership, operation, maintenance or control of the Assets. The Management Company may add to its invoices the amount of such taxes which the Management Company pays pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or is otherwise required by applicable Law, to pay directly to the relevant taxing authority in connection with this Agreement, and such amounts shall be due with such invoices. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Party shall be responsible for (i) income taxes resulting from amounts paid or payable to it under this Agreement, and (ii) employment taxes and social security payments relating to its own employees.
