R E C I T A L S
     The purpose of this Agreement is to amend and restate, in its entirety, that certain Fifth Amended and Restated Administrative Services Agreement, as amended on and effective January 30, 2009 (the “Fifth Amendment”) and in particular, after giving effect to certain transactions since the date of the Fifth Amendment whereby the TPP Parties, EPE and the DEP Parties have become wholly owned subsidiaries of EPD, to terminate and release each of the TPP Parties, EPE and the DEP Parties under this Agreement from its obligations to the other parties under the Fifth Amendment, for the MLP Group to assume any prior obligations of the TPP Parties, EPE and the DEP Parties under the Fifth Amendment to EPCO or the EPCO Group, and for the TPP Parties, EPE and the DEP

1


 

Parties to terminate and release the obligations of the other Parties to the TPP Parties, EPE and the DEP Parties under the Fifth Amendment.
     The Parties hereto desire, by their execution of this Agreement, to evidence the terms and conditions pursuant to which (i) the EPCO Group will provide certain services to the MLP Group on and after the Effective Date and (ii) a variety of additional matters will be handled among the EPCO Group and the MLP Group on and after the Effective Date.
A G R E E M E N T S
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants, conditions, and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1: DEFINITIONS
     1.1 Definitions. The definitions listed on Exhibit A shall be for all purposes, unless otherwise clearly indicated to the contrary, applied to the terms used in this Agreement.
     1.2 Construction. Unless the context requires otherwise: (a) any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa; (b) references to Articles and Sections refer to Articles and Sections of this Agreement; (c) the terms “include”, “includes”, “including” or words of like import shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; and (d) the terms “hereof”, “herein” or “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only, and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 2: SERVICES
     2.1 EPCO Services.
          (a) During the Term, subject to the terms of this Article 2 and in exchange for the reimbursement described in Section 2.2, the EPCO Group hereby agrees to provide the MLP Group with such selling, general and administrative services and such management and operating services as directed by the General Partner and as may be necessary to manage and operate the business, properties and assets of the MLP Group in accordance with Prudent Industry Practices; it being understood and agreed by the Parties that in connection with the provision of such services, EPCO shall employ or otherwise retain the services of such personnel as may be necessary to cause the business, properties and assets of the MLP Group to be so managed and operated (individually, an “EPCO Service” and, collectively, the “EPCO Services”).

2


 

          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties recognize and agree that the General Partner, along with any required approval of its Audit and Conflicts Committee, shall have the exclusive authority to appoint an independent accounting firm to audit the financial statements of the MLP Group.
     2.2 EPCO Compensation. As compensation for the provision by the EPCO Group of the EPCO Services to each member of the MLP Group, the EPCO Group shall be entitled to receive, and the General Partner agrees to cause EPD or EPOLLC to pay to the applicable member of the EPCO Group, without duplication, an amount equal to the sum of all costs and expenses (direct or indirect) incurred by such member of the EPCO Group which are directly or indirectly related to the business or activities of the MLP Group (including, without limitation, expenses, direct or indirect, reasonably allocated to the MLP Group by the EPCO Group). In addition, the General Partner shall pay or cause EPD or EPOLLC to pay all sales, use, excise, value added or similar taxes (together with any penalties, fines or interest thereon), if any, that may be applicable from time to time in respect of the EPCO Services provided to the MLP Group by the EPCO Group. The aggregate amount payable by the MLP Group to the EPCO Group pursuant to this Section 2.2 with respect to a given period of time shall be referred to herein as the “Administrative Services Fee.” It is the intention of the Parties that the Administrative Services Fee with respect to the MLP Group represents fair and reasonable compensation to the EPCO Group for the MLP Group’s allocable share of all general and administrative expenses, capital expenses and other costs for Shared Services borne or performed by the EPCO Group for the benefit of any member of the MLP Group.
     2.3 Dispute Regarding Services or Calculation of Costs. Should there be a dispute over the nature or quality of the EPCO Services, or the calculation and allocation of any Administrative Services Fee, relating to any of the EPCO Services, EPCO and the General Partner, on behalf of the MLP Group, shall first attempt to resolve such dispute, acting diligently and in good faith, using the past practices of such Parties and documentary evidence of costs as guidelines for such resolution. If EPCO and the General Partner are unable to resolve any such dispute within thirty days, or such additional time as may be reasonable under the circumstances, the dispute shall be referred to the Audit and Conflicts Committee. EPCO shall provide to the General Partner a quarterly statement indicating the total EPCO Group costs and expenses allocated to all of the MLP Group and a detailed statement of the EPCO Group costs and expenses that are allocated to the MLP Group and representative of the MLP Group’s Administrative Service Fee (including an explanation of such allocation, which shall generally be consistent from period to period). The Parties agree that the Audit and Conflicts Committee shall have the authority to settle any such dispute, in its sole discretion, recognizing that it is the intent of all Parties that all shared expenses or services be allocated among the EPCO Group and the MLP Group on a fair and reasonable basis.
     2.4 Invoices. EPCO shall invoice the appropriate member of the MLP Group (in care of the General Partner, as billing agent for the MLP Group (the “Billing Agent”)) on or before the last day of each month for the estimated Administrative Services Fee expected to be incurred by the EPCO Group for the next succeeding month, plus or minus

3


 

any adjustment necessary to correct prior estimated billings to actual billings. All invoices shall be due and payable on the last day of the month which the invoice covers. Upon request from the Billing Agent, EPCO shall furnish in reasonable detail a description of the EPCO Services performed by the EPCO Group for the MLP Group during any month or other relevant period.
     2.5 Disputes; Default. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article 2 to the contrary, should the General Partner fail to cause EPO or EPOLLC to pay to EPCO, as agent for, and acting on behalf of, the EPCO Group, when due, any amounts owing in respect of the applicable EPCO Services, except as set forth in the third succeeding sentence, upon 30 days’ notice, EPCO, as agent for, and acting on behalf of, the EPCO Group, may terminate this Article 2 as to those EPCO Services that relate to the unpaid portion of the invoice. Should there be a dispute as to the propriety of invoiced amounts, the Billing Agent shall cause EPO or EPOLLC to pay all undisputed amounts on each invoice, but shall be entitled to withhold payment of any amount in dispute and shall promptly notify EPCO of such disputed amount. EPCO shall promptly provide the Billing Agent with records relating to the disputed amount so as to enable EPCO and the General Partner to resolve the dispute. So long as such parties are attempting in good faith to resolve the dispute, EPCO shall not be entitled to terminate the EPCO Services that relate to the disputed amount.
     2.6 Input Regarding EPCO Services. Any records, information or other input from the MLP Group that is necessary for the EPCO Group to perform any EPCO Services shall be submitted, upon EPCO’s written request therefor to the General Partner, to EPCO, as agent for, and on behalf of, the EPCO Group, by the MLP Group. If the MLP Group fails to supply such records, information or other input to EPCO and such failure renders the EPCO Group’s performance of any EPCO Services unreasonably difficult, in EPCO’s reasonable judgment, EPCO, as agent for, and acting on behalf of, the EPCO Group, upon reasonable notice to the General Partner, may refuse to perform such EPCO Services until such records, information or other input is supplied.
     2.7 Limitation Regarding EPCO Services. The MLP Group Parties hereto acknowledge that the EPCO Group shall only be required to perform and provide (i) those EPCO Services with respect to the business of the MLP Group as operated on the Effective Date, and (ii) such additional EPCO Services as may be mutually agreed orally or in writing by EPCO and the General Partner (or other members of the MLP Group), which agreement regarding additional or fewer EPCO Services shall reflect an appropriate adjustment to the applicable Administrative Services Fee. The EPCO Group shall not be required to perform any EPCO Services hereunder for the benefit of any Person other than the MLP Group.
     2.8 Representations Regarding Use of Services. The MLP Group Parties hereto represent and agree that they will use (and cause any other MLP Group members controlled by them to use) the EPCO Services only in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations, and in accordance with the reasonable conditions, rules, regulations, and specifications that may be set forth in any manuals, materials, documents, or instructions furnished from time to time by the EPCO Group to

4


 

the MLP Group. EPCO, as agent for, and acting on behalf of, the EPCO Group, reserves the right to take all actions, including, without limitation, termination of any portion of the EPCO Services for the MLP Group that it reasonably believes is required to be terminated in order to assure compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
     2.9 Disclaimer of Warranties; Limitation of Liability. (a) The EPCO Services shall be provided in accordance with the Services Standard. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE, THE EPCO GROUP MAKES NO (AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS AND NEGATES ANY AND ALL) WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS OR REPRESENTATIONS WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE EPCO SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS OR SUITABILITY FOR ANY PURPOSE (WHETHER THE EPCO GROUP KNOWS, HAS REASON TO KNOW, HAS BEEN ADVISED, OR IS OTHERWISE IN FACT AWARE OF ANY SUCH PURPOSE) WHETHER ALLEGED TO ARISE BY LAW, BUT REASON OF CUSTOM OR USAGE IN THE TRADE OR BY COURSE OF DEALING. HOWEVER, IN THE CASE OF OUTSOURCED SERVICES PROVIDED SOLELY FOR THE MLP GROUP, IF THE THIRD-PARTY PROVIDER OF SUCH SERVICES MAKES AN EXPRESS WARRANTY TO THE MLP GROUP, THE GENERAL PARTNER IS ENTITLED TO CAUSE THE EPCO GROUP TO RELY ON AND TO ENFORCE SUCH WARRANTY.
     (b) IN NO EVENT SHALL THE EPCO GROUP OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES BE LIABLE TO ANY OF THE PERSONS RECEIVING ANY EPCO SERVICES OR TO ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY ERROR IN THE PERFORMANCE OF SUCH SERVICE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE PERSON PROVIDING SUCH SERVICE, ITS AFFILIATES, OR OTHERS MAY BE WHOLLY, CONCURRENTLY, PARTIALLY, OR SOLELY NEGLIGENT OR OTHERWISE AT FAULT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES ARE PAID BY THE PARTY INCURRING SUCH DAMAGES TO A THIRD PARTY.
     2.10 Force Majeure. The EPCO Group shall have no obligation to perform the EPCO Services, and shall not be liable for any expense, loss or damage whatsoever arising out of any interruption, delay or failure to perform any EPCO Services under this Agreement, if its failure to do so is caused by or results from any act of God, governmental action (including any nation, state, territory, province or other political subdivision thereof), natural disaster, strike, riot, failure of essential equipment, act of a public enemy, act of terrorism, or any other cause or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing causes or circumstances, beyond the reasonable control of the EPCO Group. In any such event, the EPCO Group’s obligations hereunder shall be postponed for such time as its performance is suspended or delayed on account thereof. EPCO, as agent for, and acting on behalf of the EPCO Group, will promptly notify the MLP Group, either orally or in writing, upon learning of the occurrence of such event of force majeure. Upon the cessation of the force majeure event, the EPCO Group will use

5


 

its commercially reasonable efforts to resume its performance with the least practicable delay.
     2.11 Affiliates. At its election, the EPCO Group may cause one or more of their respective Affiliates or third party contractors reasonably acceptable to the General Partner to provide any such EPCO Service; provided, however, EPCO shall remain responsible for the provision of such EPCO Service in accordance with this Agreement.
     2.12 Term and Termination.
          (a) In addition to the termination of particular EPCO Services as provided in Section 2.5, the EPCO Group may exclude any particular services from the scope of EPCO Services at any time without penalty by giving notice of such termination to the other Parties, with the effective date being not less than 60 days following notice of any exclusion of particular services or such other effective date as may be agreed upon by the Parties.
          (b) EPCO and EPCO Holdings, on behalf of the EPCO Group, may terminate this Agreement at any time without penalty by giving notice of such termination to the other Parties, with the effective date being not less than 180 days following notice of termination, or such other effective date as may be agreed upon by the Parties.
          (c) EPCO and EPCO Holdings, on behalf of the EPCO Group, may terminate this Agreement at any time upon the MLP Group’s material breach of this Agreement, if (i) such breach is not remedied within 45 days (or 30 days in the event of a material breach arising out of the failure to make payment hereunder) after the General Partner’s receipt of written notice thereof, or such longer period as is reasonably required to cure such breach, provided that the General Partner commences or causes the MLP Group to cure such breach, and (ii) such breach is continuing at the time notice of termination is delivered to the General Partner.
          (d) The General Partner may terminate this Agreement at any time upon the EPCO Group’s material breach of this Agreement, if (i) such breach is not remedied within 45 days (or 30 days in the event of a material breach arising out of the failure to make payment hereunder) after EPCO’s receipt (on behalf of the EPCO Group) of written notice thereof, or such longer period as is reasonably required to cure such breach, provided that the EPCO Group commences to cure such breach, and (ii) such breach is continuing at the time notice of termination is delivered to EPCO (acting on behalf of the EPCO Group).
          (e) If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with this Section 2.12 or otherwise at the end of the Term, all rights and obligations under this Agreement shall cease except for (i) obligations that expressly survive termination of this Agreement, (ii) liabilities and obligations that have accrued prior to such termination, and (iii) the obligation to pay any portion of amounts payable under Article 2 and under

6


 

Section 5.4(b) (if applicable) that have accrued prior to such termination, even if such amounts have not become due and payable at that time.
          (f) The provisions of Article 2 (with respect to unpaid amounts hereunder), Section 2.2, Article 3, Article 4, Section 5.4(b) (with respect to any unpaid amounts hereunder) and Article 6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 3: OWNERSHIP OF WORK PRODUCT; AUDIT RIGHTS:
DISCLOSURE OF COMPENSATION
     3.1 Ownership of Work Product.
          (a) The work produced by the EPCO Group under the terms of this Agreement in connection with the performance of the EPCO Services, including, without limitation, all work papers, drafts, notes, reports, extracts and other written or electronic recordings, developed in connection with the EPCO Services hereunder, but excluding, without limitation, the books and records of the EPCO Group not relating to the performance of the EPCO Services (the “Work Product”), shall be the property of the MLP Group. The EPCO Group shall have no right or interest in such Work Product, but the EPCO Group (i) shall be and is hereby granted an irrevocable, royalty-free, non-exclusive and non-transferable right and license to use and maintain originals or copies of such Work Product (A) to perform the EPCO Services hereunder and (B) in connection with any other books and records required to be maintained by the EPCO Group under applicable tax, accounting, or other regulatory requirements, or for other permitted EPCO Group business purposes, and (ii) may share MLP Group information and any Work Product with its Affiliates, agents and representatives as reasonably necessary to perform the EPCO Services, all in accordance with the limitations, duties and obligations imposed by this Agreement, including this Section 3.1.
          (b) Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that a breach by it of its obligations under this Section 3.1 would cause irreparable harm to the other Parties and that monetary damages would not be adequate to compensate the harmed Parties. Accordingly, the breaching Parties agree that the harmed Parties shall be entitled to immediate equitable relief, including a temporary or permanent injunction, to prevent any threatened, likely or ongoing violation by the breaching Parties, without the necessity of posting bond or other security. Each of the harmed Parties’ right to equitable relief shall be in addition to other rights and remedies available to the harmed Parties for monetary damages or otherwise to the extent permitted under this Agreement.
     3.2 Audit Rights. At any time during the Term and for one year thereafter, to the extent necessary to verify the performance by the EPCO Group of its obligations under this Agreement, the General Partner, on behalf of the MLP Group, shall have the right, at the MLP Group’s expense, to audit, examine and make copies of the books and records of the EPCO Group relating to the provision of EPCO Services and the

7


 

determination of the Administrative Services Fee (the “Audit Right”). The General Partner may exercise the Audit Right through any agent or employee of the General Partner or such auditors as the General Partner may determine in its sole discretion. The General Partner shall (i) exercise the Audit Right only upon reasonable notice to EPCO during normal business hours and (ii) use its reasonable efforts to conduct the Audit Right in such a manner as to minimize the inconvenience and disruption to EPCO.
     3.3 Disclosure of Compensation. EPCO, on behalf of the EPCO Group, shall disclose to the General Partner the amount of compensation or other remuneration of any EPCO Group employees who are executive officers or directors of the General Partner or EPD, to the extent required for the MLP Group to comply with the requirements of applicable law, including applicable Federal securities laws.
ARTICLE 4: INDEMNIFICATION
     4.1 Indemnification by EPCO.
          (a) From and after the date hereof and subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 4.1, EPCO, on behalf of the EPCO Group, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the MLP Group from and against any loss, cost, claim, liability, prepayment or similar penalty, damage, expense, attorneys fees, judgment, award or settlement of any kind or nature whatsoever (other than out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the MLP Group in connection with the discharge by the EPCO Group of the EPCO Group’s obligations pursuant to Section 4.1(c)) (collectively, “Losses”) incurred by the MLP Group in connection with the Excluded Liabilities; provided, however, in no event shall such indemnification obligation, or the term “Losses,” cover or include exemplary, punitive, special, consequential, indirect, or incidental damages or lost profits suffered by the MLP Group in connection with the Excluded Liabilities, except to the extent such exemplary, punitive, special, consequential, indirect or incidental damages or lost profits are actually paid by any member of the MLP Group to a third party.
          (b) The EPCO Group, shall have the right to control all aspects of the defense of any claims (and any counterclaims) related to the Excluded Liabilities, including, without limitation, the selection of counsel, determination of whether to appeal any decision of any court and the settling of any such matter or any issues relating thereto; provided, however, that no such settlement shall be entered into without the consent of the General Partner, on behalf of the MLP Group, unless (i) it includes a full release of the applicable members of the MLP Group from such matter or issues, as the case may be or (ii) following such settlement there is no realistic scenario under which the MLP Group could be held liable for such matter or issues.
          (c) The MLP Group Parties hereto agree, at their own cost and expense, to cooperate fully with the EPCO Group with respect to all aspects of the defense of any claims related to the Excluded Liabilities, including, without limitation, the prompt furnishing to the EPCO Group of any correspondence or other notice relating thereto that any member of the MLP Group may receive, permitting the names of the applicable members of the MLP Group to be utilized in connection with such defense and

8


 

the making available to the EPCO Group of any files, records or other information of the MLP Group that EPCO, on behalf of the EPCO Group, considers relevant to such defense; provided, however, that in connection therewith the EPCO Group agrees to use reasonable efforts to minimize the impact thereof on the operations of the MLP Group. In no event shall the obligation of the MLP Group to cooperate with the EPCO Group as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence be construed as imposing upon the MLP Group an obligation to hire and pay for counsel in connection with the defense of any claims related to the Excluded Liabilities.
     4.2 Indemnification by EPD, EPOLLC and MLP Group Parties.
          (a) Each MLP Group Party, jointly and severally, hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless EPCO and its stockholders and Affiliates and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees and agents (an “EPCO Indemnified Party”) from and against any loss, cost, claim, liability, prepayment or similar penalty, damage, expense, attorneys fees, judgment, award or settlement of any kind or nature whatsoever (collectively, “EPCO Losses”) incurred by one or more of the EPCO Indemnified Parties, whether based on contract, tort, or pursuant to any statute, rule or regulation, and regardless of whether the EPCO Losses are forseeable or unforseeable, all to the extent that such EPCO Losses are in respect of or arise from claims by a third party relating to (i) any acts or omissions of the EPCO Indemnified Parties in connection with furnishing, or failing to furnish, any of the EPCO Services, solely to the extent that (x) such acts or omissions were performed for the benefit of any member of the MLP Group, and (y) such EPCO Services were performed in accordance with the Services Standard; provided, that the MLP Group Parties shall not be obligated to indemnify or hold harmless the EPCO Indemnified Parties from and against any EPCO Losses to the extent they result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any EPCO Indemnified Party; and provided, further, in no event shall such indemnification obligation, or the term “EPCO Losses,” cover or include exemplary, punitive, special, consequential, indirect, or incidental damages or lost profits suffered by the EPCO Indemnified Parties in connection with the EPCO Services, except to the extent such exemplary, punitive, special, consequential, indirect or incidental damages or lost profits are actually paid by the EPCO Indemnified Party to a third party.
     4.3 Negligence; Strict Liability. Except as expressly provided in Section 4.2, the defense and indemnity obligations in Section 4.2 shall apply regardless of cause or negligent acts or omissions (including sole negligence, concurrent negligence or strict liability), breach of duty (statutory or otherwise), violation of law or other fault of any indemnified Party, or any pre-existing defect; provided, however, that this provision shall not apply to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any indemnified Party or in any way limit or alter any qualifications set forth in such defense and indemnity obligations expressly relating to gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this agreement. The Parties agree that this statement complies with the requirement known as the “express negligence rule” to expressly state in a conspicuous manner and to afford fair and adequate

9


 

notice that this article has provisions requiring one Party to be responsible for the negligence, strict liability or other fault of another Party.
ARTICLE 5: OTHER AGREEMENTS
     5.1 Insurance Matters. EPCO, on behalf of the EPCO Group, hereby agrees to cause the MLP Group to be named as insureds or additional insureds in the EPCO Group’s insurance program, as in effect from time to time, other than with respect to workers’ compensation coverage. Subject to Section 2.5, each member of the MLP Group shall be allocated, and pay for, such insurance coverage in an amount equal to the EPCO Group’s cost of insuring the assets and operations of such entities.
     5.2 EPCO’s Employees.
          (a) The obligation of the Billing Agent to cause EPO or EPOLLC to pay the Administrative Services Fee shall, as such obligation relates to the EPCO Group’s expenses incurred to compensate its employees providing the EPCO Services, reimburse the EPCO Group for the appropriate pro rata cost of such employees’ salaries, wages, bonuses, benefits, social security and other taxes, workers compensation insurance, retirement and insurance benefits, training, and other direct and indirect costs of such employee fringe benefits. The Billing Agent shall not be obligated to cause EPO or EPOLLC to pay any amount directly to EPCO’s employees; provided, however, if the EPCO Group ever fails to pay any employee providing EPCO Services within 30 days following the date such employee’s payment is due:

     6.12 Laws and Regulations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Party hereto shall be required to take any act, or fail to take any act,

12


 

under this Agreement if the effect thereof would be to cause such Party to be in violation of any applicable law, statute, rule or regulation.
