ARTICLE 4
CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; CAPITAL ACCOUNTS

4.01 Capital Contributions.

(a) In exchange for its Membership Interest in the Company and payment by the Company to El Paso GP Holdco of cash consideration in the amount of $370 million, El Paso GP Holdco has contributed to the Company its Class B Membership Interest in GulfTerra Energy Company, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, and Enterprise Parent 2 has made certain Capital Contributions. Enterprise Parent 1 is the assignee of its predecessor’s

Membership Interest. The parties hereto agree that, except as provided in Section 4.01(c), in no event shall El Paso GP Holdco be required to make any Capital Contribution to the Company (i) in respect of the transactions to be effected by the MLP on the Effective Date, including any Capital Contributions that may be required pursuant to the MLP Agreement in respect of any of those transactions, or (ii) to fund any capital contribution required to be made by the Company pursuant to the MLP Agreement in respect of any issuances of Common Units to El Paso GP Holdco (or its Transferees admitted as Substituted Members pursuant to Section 9.02) upon exercise of its Exchange Right under the Exchange Agreement.

(b) The amount of money and the fair market value (as of the date of contribution) of any property (other than money) contributed to the Company by a Member in respect of the issuance of a Membership Interest to such Member shall constitute a “Capital Contribution,” and the amount of such Capital Contribution shall be credited to such Member’s Capital Account. Any reference in this Agreement to the Capital Contribution of a Member shall include a Capital Contribution of its predecessors in interest.

(c) Pursuant to Section 5.2(d) of the MLP Agreement, upon the issuance of any additional Limited Partner Interests (as defined in the MLP Agreement) by the MLP, the Company, as general partner of the MLP, is required to make an additional capital contribution to the MLP in an amount equal to 2/98 of the amount contributed to the MLP in exchange for the Limited Partner Interests. Concurrently with the capital contribution required to be made by the Company to the MLP pursuant to Section 5.2(d) of the MLP Agreement (the “GP Contribution”), each of the Members shall contribute to the Company its pro rata share of the GP Contribution based on its respective Sharing Ratio; provided, however, that the Members shall not be required to make any such contribution to the Company in connection with the transactions to be effected by the MLP on the Effective Date. In the event any Member fails to contribute to the Company its pro rata share of the GP Contribution in accordance with this Section 4.01(c) (the “Failing Member”), the other Member(s) may elect to additionally contribute to the Company (the “Contributing Member”) such Failing Member’s pro rata share of the GP Contribution. If such contribution is made by a Contributing Member, as a penalty for Default, the Failing Member shall forfeit all future distributions of Available Cash from the Company pursuant to Section 5.01 and such Failing Member’s distributions shall instead be distributed to the Contributing Member until such time as an amount equal to 300% of the amount so contributed by the Contributing Member on behalf of the Failing Member shall be distributed to the Contributing Member (the amount to be distributed in excess of the amount contributed by a Contributing Member is referred to as the “Excess Amount”).

4.02 Loans. If the Company does not have sufficient cash to pay its obligations, any Member that may agree to do so may, with the consent of the Audit and Conflicts Committee, advance all or part of the needed funds for such obligation to or on behalf of the Company. An advance described in this Section 4.02 constitutes a loan from the Member to the Company, may bear interest at a rate determined by the Board of Directors from the date of the advance until the date of repayment, and is not a Capital Contribution.

4.03 Return of Contributions. A Member is not entitled to the return of any part of its Capital Contributions or to be paid interest in respect of either its Capital Account or its Capital Contributions. An unrepaid Capital Contribution is not a liability of the Company or of any

Member. No Member will be required to contribute or to lend any cash or property to the Company to enable the Company to return any Member’s Capital Contributions.

4.04 Capital Accounts.

(a) The Company shall maintain for each Member a separate Capital Account in accordance with the rules of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). Each Member’s Capital Account shall be increased by (i) the amount of all Capital Contributions made by that Member to the Company and (ii) all items of Company income and gain (including, without limitation, income and gain exempt from tax) computed in accordance with Section 4.04(b) and allocated to that Member pursuant to Section 5.02, and decreased by (A) the amount of cash or Net Agreed Value of all actual and deemed distributions of cash or property to that Member pursuant to this Agreement and (B) all items of Company deduction and loss computed in accordance with Section 4.04(b) and allocated to that Member pursuant to Section 5.02. As of immediately after the Effective Date, each Member’s Capital Account is as set forth on Exhibit A.

(b) For purposes of computing the amount of any item of income, gain, loss or deduction which is to be allocated pursuant to Article 5 and is to be reflected in the Members’ Capital Accounts, the determination, recognition and classification of any such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for federal income tax purposes (including, without limitation, any method of depreciation, cost recovery or amortization used for that purpose), provided, that:

(i) Any income, gain or loss attributable to the taxable disposition of any Company property shall be determined as if the adjusted basis of such property as of such date of disposition were equal in amount to the Company’s Carrying Value with respect to such property as of such date.

(ii) In accordance with the requirements of Section 704(b) of the Code, any deductions for depreciation, cost recovery or amortization attributable to any Contributed Property shall be determined as if the adjusted basis of such property on the date it was acquired by the Company were equal to the Agreed Value of such property. Upon an adjustment to the Carrying Value of any Company property subject to depreciation, cost recovery or amortization, any further deductions for such depreciation, cost recovery or amortization attributable to such property shall be determined (A) as if the adjusted basis of such property were equal to the Carrying Value of such property immediately following such adjustment and (B) using a rate of depreciation, cost recovery or amortization derived from the same method and useful life (or, if applicable, the remaining useful life) as is applied for federal income tax purposes; provided, however, that, if the asset has a zero adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes, depreciation, cost recovery or amortization deductions shall be determined using any reasonable method that the Board of Directors may adopt.

(c) A Transferee of a Membership Interest shall succeed to a pro rata portion of the Capital Account of the transferor relating to the Membership Interest so transferred.

(d) (i) In accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), on an issuance of additional Membership Interests for cash or Contributed Property, the Capital Account of all Members and the Carrying Value of each Company property immediately prior to such issuance shall be adjusted upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such Company property, as if such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss had been recognized on an actual sale of each such property immediately prior to such issuance and had been allocated to the Members at such time pursuant to Section 5.02 in the same manner as any item of gain or loss actually recognized during such period would have been allocated.

(ii) In accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), immediately prior to any actual or deemed distribution to a Member of any Company property (other than a distribution of cash that is not in redemption or retirement of a Membership Interest), the Capital Accounts of all Members and the Carrying Value of all Company property shall be adjusted upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such Company property, as if such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss had been recognized in a sale of such property immediately prior to such distribution for an amount equal to its fair market value, and had been allocated to the Members, at such time, pursuant to Section 5.02 in the same manner as any item of gain or loss actually recognized during such period would have been allocated.

ARTICLE 5
DISTRIBUTIONS AND ALLOCATIONS

5.01 Distributions. Subject to Section 11.02, within 45 days following each Quarter other than any Quarter in which the dissolution of the Company has commenced (the “Distribution Date”), the Company shall distribute to the Members the Company’s Available Cash on such Distribution Date. Distributions made pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall made among the Members as follows:

(a) First, to El Paso GP Holdco in amount equal to 9.9% of Pre-Debt Service Available Cash; and

(b) The remainder, if any, to each of the Members other than El Paso GP Holdco in proportion that each such Member’s (other than El Paso Holdco) Sharing Ratio bears to the aggregate Sharing Ratios of all such other Members.

Each distribution in respect of a Membership Interest shall be paid only to the record holder thereof as of the Distribution Date, unless otherwise directed by the record holder.

5.02 Allocations for Capital Account Purposes. For purposes of maintaining the Capital Accounts and in determining the rights of the Members among themselves, the Company’s items of income, gain, loss and deduction (computed in accordance with Section 4.04(b)) shall be allocated among the Members in each taxable year (or portion thereof) as provided herein below.

(a) Except as otherwise required by Section 5.02(b), all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Company shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with their Sharing Ratios.

(b) Special Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made for each taxable period:

(i) Company Minimum Gain Chargeback. If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any taxable period, each Member shall be allocated items of income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f)(6), 1.704-2(g)(2) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(i), or any successor provision. For purposes of this Section 5.02(b)(i), each Member’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income or gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 5.02(b) with respect to such taxable period (other than an allocation pursuant to Sections 5.02(b)(v) and 5.02(b)(vi)). This Section 5.02(b)(i) is intended to comply with the Member Minimum Gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(ii) Chargeback of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain. Except as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any taxable period, any Member with a share of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain at the beginning of such taxable period shall be allocated items of income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(ii), or any successor provisions. For purposes of this Section 5.02(b)(ii), each Member’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income or gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 5.02(b), other than Section 5.02(b)(i) and other than an allocation pursuant to Sections 5.02(b)(v) and 5.02(b)(vi), with respect to such taxable period. This Section 5.02(b)(ii) is intended to comply with the chargeback of items of income and gain requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iii) Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the deficit balance, if any, in its Adjusted Capital Account created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible unless such deficit balance is otherwise eliminated pursuant to Section 5.02(b)(i) or (ii).

(iv) Gross Income Allocations. In the event any Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account at the end of any taxable period in excess of the sum of (A) the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and (B) the amount such Member is deemed obligated to restore pursuant to Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5), such Member shall be specially allocated items of gross income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.02(b)(iv) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit balance in its Capital Account as adjusted after all other allocations provided for in this Section 5.02 have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.02(b)(iv) were not in this Agreement.

(v) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Sharing Ratios. If the Board of Directors determines in its good faith discretion that the Company’s Nonrecourse Deductions must be allocated in a different ratio to satisfy the safe harbor requirements of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the Board of Directors is authorized, upon notice to the other Members, to revise the prescribed ratio to the numerically closest ratio that does satisfy such requirements.

(vi) Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated 100% to the Member that bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i). If more than one Member bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to a Member Nonrecourse Debt, such Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Members in accordance with the ratios in which they share such Economic Risk of Loss.

(vii) Nonrecourse Liabilities. For purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Members agree that Nonrecourse Liabilities of the Company in excess of the sum of (A) the amount of Company Minimum Gain and (B) the total amount of Nonrecourse Built-in Gain shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with their respective Sharing Ratios.

(viii) Interest on Enterprise Parent Debt. All interest deductions relating to indebtedness owed by the Company to Enterprise Parent or any Affiliate of Enterprise Parent shall be allocated to each of the Members other than El Paso GP Holdco in proportion that each such Member’s (other than El Paso Holdco) Sharing Ratio bears to the aggregate Sharing Ratios of all such other Members.

ARTICLE 9
DISPOSITIONS

9.01 Dispositions of Membership Interests. Except to the extent expressly permitted by this Article 9, no Member may Dispose of all or any part of a Membership Interest. Unless otherwise provided herein, references in this Section 9.01 to Dispositions of a “Membership Interest” shall also refer to Dispositions of a portion of a Membership Interest. Any attempted transfer, sale or other Disposition of all or any part of a Membership Interest, other than in strict accordance with this Article 9, shall be, and is hereby declared, null and void ab initio. The Members agree that a breach of the provisions of this Article 9 may cause irreparable injury to the Company and to the other Members for which monetary damages (or other remedies at law) are inadequate in view of (a) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring the actual damages that would be sustained by reason of the failure of a Member to comply with such provisions and (b) the uniqueness of the Company’s business and the relationship among the Members. Accordingly, the Members agree that the provisions of this Article 9 may be enforced by specific performance. If, subject to its compliance with Article 9, El Paso GP Holdco elects to Dispose of all (but not less than all) of its Membership Interests in the Company to any Transferee, such Transferee shall succeed to all of El Paso GP Holdco’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, including (i) the Member approval rights pursuant to Section 6.01(b), (ii) the drag-along and tag-along rights pursuant to Section 9.05 and (iii) its consent rights in respect of amendments of this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.04.

9.02 Permitted Dispositions of Membership Interests and General Restrictions.

(a) Permitted Dispositions. El Paso GP Holdco (and any Transferee thereof admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to this Section 9.02) may Dispose of all (but not less than all) of its Membership Interest, and any other Member (and any Transferee thereof admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to Section 9.02) may Dispose of all or any portion of its Membership Interest, to its Parent or any Subsidiary Affiliate of its Parent (such Transferee, a

“Permitted Transferee”), and such Permitted Transferee will, subject to Section 9.02(b), be admitted as a Substituted Member and be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The restrictions in (i) this Section 9.02 shall not apply in the case of a merger or consolidation involving the entire Company, which requires approval pursuant to Section 6.01(b), (ii) Sections 9.03, 9.04 and 9.05 shall not apply to Dispositions to Permitted Transferees and (iii) Sections 9.03 and 9.04 (other than Section 9.04(c)) shall not apply to any Dispositions by Enterprise Parent or its Permitted Transferees admitted as Substituted Members pursuant to this Section 9.02.

(b) Admission of Transferee as a Member. Upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 9.02(b) and the other provisions of Article 9, a Transferee has the right to be admitted to the Company as a Member (in such capacity, a “Substituted Member”), with the Disposed Membership Interest so transferred to such Transferee.

(i) Any Disposition of a Membership Interest and any admission of a Transferee as a Member shall be subject to the following requirements, and such Disposition shall not be effective unless such requirements are complied with; provided, however, that the Board of Directors, in its sole and absolute discretion, may waive any of the following requirements:

(A) The following documents must be delivered to the Board of Directors and must be reasonably satisfactory, in form and substance, to the Board of Directors:

(I) A copy of the instrument pursuant to which the Disposition is effected.

(II) An instrument, executed by the Disposing Member and its Transferee, containing the following information and agreements, to the extent they are not contained in the instrument described in Section 9.02(b)(i)(A)(I): (a) the notice address of the Transferee; (b) the Transferee’s ratification of this Agreement and agreement to be bound by it and assumption of all of the transferor Member’s liabilities under this Agreement; (c) representations and warranties by the Disposing Member and its Transferee that the Disposition is being made in accordance with all applicable Laws; and (d) representations and warranties of the Transferee similar to those contained in Section 10.01 hereof.

(B) The Disposition must be made pursuant to a valid exemption from registration under those Laws and in accordance with those Laws.

(C) The Disposing Member and its Transferee shall pay, or reimburse the Company for, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the Disposition, on or before the tenth Business Day after the receipt by that Person of the Company’s invoice for the amount due.

(ii) No Disposition of a Membership Interest shall effect a release of the Disposing Member from any liabilities to the Company or the other Members arising from events occurring prior to the Disposition.

(c) Clarification Regarding Transfer of Equity Interests in Members. The Disposition by the equity owner(s) of a Member of all or any portion of the equity interests in such Member shall not constitute a Disposition of a Membership Interest for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) Special Restrictions applicable to El Paso GP Holdco. El Paso GP Holdco (and any Transferee thereof admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to this Section 9.02) may (i) only Dispose of its Membership Interest in its entirety and not in part (by operation of Law or otherwise), and the Transferee thereof must be and remain a single Person, (ii) not Dispose of its Membership Interest (other than to a Permitted Transferee or pursuant to Section 9.05) prior to the 180^th day following the Effective Date unless Enterprise Parent has given its prior written consent to such Disposition, which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Enterprise Parent and (iii) Dispose of its Membership Interest to a Competitor only if Enterprise Parent has given its prior written consent to such Disposition, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that from and after such Disposition to a Competitor (A) any rights granted to El Paso GP Holdco (or such Transferee) pursuant to Section 6.01(b) shall terminate in full, and any action set forth in Section 6.01(b) shall thereafter only require the consent of Enterprise Parent, (B) any rights granted to El Paso GP Holdco (or such Transferee) in Section 9.05(a) shall terminate in full and El Paso GP Holdco (or such Transferee) shall have no further rights thereunder, and (C) the right of the Company to compel El Paso GP Holdco to exchange its Membership Interest pursuant to Article II of the Exchange Agreement in accordance with Section 2.5(b) of the Exchange Agreement shall be accelerated and shall be exercisable at any time from and after Enterprise Parent’s consent is given. The restriction set forth in Section 9.02(d)(ii) shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the occurrence of any of the events described in Section 2.5(c) of the Exchange Agreement.

(e) If any Exchange pursuant to the Exchange Agreement is treated as a redemption of the Membership Interest of El Paso GP Holdco (and any Transferee thereof admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to this Section 9.02), upon such Exchange, the Sharing Ratio of El Paso GP Holdco (or such Transferee) shall be reduced, and the Sharing Ratios of Enterprise Parent (and any Transferee thereof admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to this Section 9.02) shall be increased (proportionately among all such Members), by the amount of the Membership Interest so Exchanged.

9.03 Preferential Purchase Right.

(a) Procedure. If at any time El Paso GP Holdco or any of its Transferees admitted as Substituted Members pursuant to Section 9.02 proposes to Dispose of its Membership Interest to anyone other than a Permitted Transferee, it shall promptly give notice thereof (“Disposition Notice”) to the other Members. Such Disposition Notice shall constitute an offer to sell such Membership Interest in accordance with this Section 9.03. The Disposition Notice shall include as an attachment the purchase and sale agreement entered into by the Disposing Member, which shall set forth all relevant information with respect to the bona fide

third party offer received by the Member (which offer shall be a legal, valid and binding obligation of the potential Transferee) and the proposed Disposition, including the name and address of the prospective Transferee, the price to be paid for such Membership Interest, any other terms and conditions of the offer and proposed Disposition and, if any portion of the purchase price is to be paid in Non-Cash Consideration, the information required by Section 9.03(d). The non-Disposing Members shall have the preferential right (“Preferential Right”) but not the obligation to acquire in proportion to their ownership of the Company, or as otherwise agreed among such non-Disposing Members, all, but not less than all, of the Membership Interest that is subject to Disposition for 103% of the purchase price proposed to be paid by the potential Transferee pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence (the “Preferential Purchase Price”) (which, in the case of Non-Cash Consideration, shall be deemed to be 103% of the fair market value of such Non-Cash Consideration as determined in accordance with Section 9.03(d)), and on the same terms and conditions (other than the purchase price, which shall instead be the Preferential Purchase Price), as are set forth in the Disposition Notice. Each non-Disposing Member shall have 15 Business Days following the receipt of the Disposition Notice in which to notify the Disposing Member and the Company whether it desires to exercise its Preferential Right, and if it fails to so exercise within such 15 Business Day period, such Member shall be deemed to have waived its Preferential Right (but not any future Preferential Right).

(b) Closing. If the Preferential Right is exercised in accordance with Section 9.03(a), the closing of the purchase of the Membership Interest shall occur at the principal place of business of the Company on the terms set forth in the Disposition Notice, unless the Disposing Member and the purchasing Member agree upon a different place or date. At the closing, the Disposing Member shall execute and deliver to the purchasing Member an assignment of the Membership Interest that is subject to Disposition, free and clear of Encumbrances other than those created pursuant to this Agreement or the purchasing Member and any other instruments reasonably requested by the purchasing Member to give effect to the purchase. The purchasing Member shall deliver to the Disposing Member in immediately available funds the purchase price provided for in Section 9.03(a). Upon the completion of the closing of the purchase, the Membership Interests, Sharing Ratios and Capital Accounts of the Members shall be deemed adjusted to reflect the effect of the purchase.

(c) Waiver of Preferential Right. If the Non-Disposing Members waive or are deemed to have waived the Preferential Right, the Disposing Member shall have the right to Dispose of the Membership Interest described in the Disposition Notice to the proposed Transferee strictly in accordance with the Disposition Notice for a period of 15 Business Days after the expiration of the last applicable period referred to in such Section 9.03(a). If, however, the Disposing Member fails so to Dispose of its Membership Interest within such 15-Business Day period, the proposed Disposition shall again become subject to the Preferential Right in accordance with Section 9.03(a).

(d) Non-Cash Consideration. If any portion of the purchase price is to be paid in a form other than cash or cash equivalents (including real or personal property, promissory notes, securities, contractual benefits, assumption of liabilities or anything else of value) (“Non-Cash Consideration”), the Disposing Member shall state in its Disposition Notice its determination of the aggregate fair market value of such Non-Cash Consideration. If any non-

Disposing Member disagrees with such determination, it shall notify the Disposing Member of such disagreement within ten Business Days of receiving the Disposition Notice. If a dispute as to the aggregate fair market value of the Non-Cash Consideration is not resolved within five Business Days after such notice, the Disposing Member or any non-Disposing Member may require an appraisal by delivering a written notice (“Appraisal Notice”) requesting an independent appraisal. In such event, the value of the Non-Cash Consideration shall be determined by one investment banking firm of nationally-recognized standing, agreed upon by the Disposing Member and the non-Disposing Members objecting to the fair market value of the Non-Cash Consideration stated in the Disposition Notice, or, failing such agreement, appointed by the Presiding Judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, pursuant to a petition to compel appraisal. The fair market value of the Non-Cash Consideration shall be the amount determined by the investment banking firm selected in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. The Disposing Member, on the one hand, and the non-Disposing Members who have disagreed with the Disposing Member’s determination of the aggregate fair market value of the Non-Cash Consideration, on the other hand, shall bear the expenses associated with any such appraisal equally.

9.04 Change of Member Control.

(a) Procedure. In the event of a Change of Member Control, the Member with respect to which the Change of Member Control has occurred (the “Changing Member”) shall promptly (and in all events within five Business Days after the Change of Member Control) give notice thereof (“Control Notice”) to the Company and the other Members. If the Control Notice is not given by the Changing Member as provided above and any other Member becomes aware of such Change of Member Control, such other Member shall have the right to give the Control Notice to the Changing Member, the Company and the other Members.

(b) Buy-out Right. If a Control Notice is given in accordance with Section 9.04(a) that involves or relates to a Change of Member Control of El Paso GP Holdco (or any Transferee thereof admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to Section 9.02), then the Company, first, and the other Members, second, shall have the right (“Buy-out Right”) but not the obligation to acquire the Membership Interest of the Changing Member for the fair market value thereof. For purposes of this Section 9.04, fair market value means the cash value for which a third-party buyer and third-party seller under no compulsion would be willing to buy or sell the Membership Interest of the Changing Member. The Changing Member shall deliver its proposed fair market value (“FMV Notice”) of its Membership Interest to the Company and the other Members within five Business Days after the delivery of the Control Notice. The Company and each Member shall have 15 Business Days after receipt of the FMV Notice to dispute the fair market value set forth therein by notice to the Changing Member. If the Company or any other Member disputes the fair market value set forth in the FMV Notice, then the parties shall attempt to resolve such dispute. If such dispute is not resolved within 15 Business Days after delivery of the dispute notice, then the fair market value of the Changing Member’s Membership Interest shall be determined by one investment banking firm of nationally-recognized standing, agreed upon by the Company, the Changing Member and the other Members or failing such agreement, appointed by the Presiding Judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, pursuant to a petition to compel appraisal. If such dispute is submitted to the investment banking firm selected in

accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the fair market value of the Changing Member’s Membership Interest shall be the amount determined by such investment banking firm. The fair market value of the Changing Member’s Membership Interest determined as set forth in this Section 9.04(a) shall be the “Fair Market Value.”The Changing Member shall pay the expenses associated with any such appraisal. The following procedures shall govern the exercise and closing of the Buy-out Right:

(i) Company Right. The Company shall have the right but not the obligation to acquire all, but not less than all, of the Changing Member’s Membership Interest at the Fair Market Value. The Company shall have 15 Business Days following the determination of the Fair Market Value in which to notify the Members whether the Company desires to exercise its Buy-out Right. If the Company fails to exercise its Buy-out Right during such 15 Business Day period, then the Company’s Buy-out Right shall be deemed to have been waived for the subject Change of Member Control, but not for any future Change of Member Control.

(ii) Non-Changing Members Right. If the Company fails to exercise its Buy-out Right within 15 Business Days following the determination of the Fair Market Value, each Member (excluding the Changing Member) shall have the right (but not the obligation) to acquire a portion of the applicable Membership Interest that is equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the Sharing Ratio attributable to the Membership Interest held by such non-Changing Member as of the date of the Control Notice and the denominator of which is the aggregate Sharing Ratios for all Membership Interests held by the non-Changing Members as of the date of the Control Notice. Each Member (other than the Changing Member) shall have 15 Business Days following the determination of the Fair Market Value of such Membership Interest in which to notify the other Members (including the Changing Member) whether such Member desires to exercise its Buy-out Right. A notice in which a Member exercises such Buy-out Right is referred to herein as a “Change Exercise Notice,” and a Member that delivers a Change Exercise Notice is referred to herein as a “Change Purchasing Member.” A Member that fails to exercise its Buy-out Right during such 15 Business Day period shall be deemed to have waived such right for the subject Change of Member Control, but not any right for any future Change of Member Control. If the Change Purchasing Members constitute less than all of the Members (other than the Changing Member), and consequently, there is a portion of the Changing Member’s Membership Interest for which such Buy-out Right has not been exercised (“Change Unexercised Portion”), then each Change Purchasing Member shall have three Business Days following the end of such 15 Business Day period in which to notify the other Change Purchasing Members and the Changing Member whether it desires to acquire the portion of the Change Unexercised Portion that is equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the Sharing Ratio attributable to the Membership Interest held by such Change Purchasing Member and the denominator of which is the aggregate Sharing Ratios for the Membership Interests held by all Change Purchasing Members. If, at the end of such three Business Day period, there remains a Change Unexercised Portion, then the Change Purchasing Members shall have an additional three Business Day period in which to negotiate among themselves for a mutually-agreeable method of sharing the acquisition of the remaining Change Unexercised Portion. If the Change Purchasing Members are able to reach such agreement during such three Business Day period or if there is no longer a Change Unexercised Portion, then the Buy-out Right shall be deemed exercised by the Change Purchasing Members, and the Changing Member and the Change Purchasing Members shall close the acquisition of the Membership Interest in

accordance with Section 9.04(b)(iii). If, however, the Change Purchasing Members are unable to reach such agreement during such three Business Day period, then the Buy-out Right shall be deemed to have been waived by the Change Purchasing Members. A Member that fails to exercise a right during any applicable period set forth in this Section 9.04(b)(ii) shall be deemed to have waived such right for the subject Change of Member Control, but not any right for any future Change of Member Control.

(iii) Closing. If the Buy-out Right is exercised in accordance with Section 9.04(b)(i) or (ii), the closing of the purchase of the Membership Interest shall occur at the principal place of business of the Company on the ^30th Day after the expiration of the last applicable period referred to in such Section 9.04(b)(i) or (ii) (or such longer period as may be necessary to comply with any waiting periods imposed by Governmental Authorities or to receive any approvals required by Law, such period not to exceed 180 days after the last applicable period referred to in Section 9.04(b)(i) or (ii), unless the Changing Member and the Company or the Change Purchasing Members, as applicable, agree upon a different place or date. At the closing, the Changing Member shall execute and deliver to the Company or the Change Purchasing Members, as applicable, an assignment of the Membership Interest that is subject to such Change of Member Control free and clear of Encumbrances, other than those created by this Agreement or by the Change Purchasing Members, and any other instruments reasonably requested by the Company or the Change Purchasing Members, as applicable, to give effect to the purchase. The Company or the Change Purchasing Members, as applicable, shall deliver to the Changing Member in immediately available funds the purchase price provided for in Section 9.04(b), and the Membership Interests, Sharing Ratios and Capital Accounts of the Members shall be deemed adjusted to reflect the effect of the purchase.

(c) Exchange Right. If a Control Notice is given in accordance with Section 9.04(a) that involves or relates to a Change of Member Control of Enterprise Parent (or Permitted Transferees thereof admitted as Substituted Members pursuant to Section 9.02) such that following such Change of Member Control, Enterprise Parent Controls 50% or less of the total Membership Interests outstanding after such Change of Member Control, El Paso GP Holdco (or a Transferee thereof admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to Section 9.02) shall have the right to elect to exercise its Exchange Right under Article II of the Exchange Agreement to exchange all of its Membership Interest for Common Units (without regard to the Section 16 Cap), which Exchange Right shall be exercisable whether or not otherwise then exercisable under the terms and provisions of the Exchange Agreement.

9.05 Tag-Along and Drag-Along Rights.

(a) El Paso GP Holdco Tag-Along Rights. If either or both of Enterprise Parent 1 or Enterprise Parent 2 (or a Transferee thereof admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to Section 9.02) (singly or collectively, the “Tag-Initiating Member”) proposes to Dispose of any of their Membership Interests, other than to a Permitted Transferee pursuant to Section 9.02 or in a transaction subject to Section 9.05(b) (such proposed Disposal is referred to herein as a “Proposed Tag-Along Disposition”), the Tag-Initiating Member shall offer (the “Tag-Along Offer”) to El Paso GP Holdco (or its Transferees admitted as Substituted Members pursuant to Section 9.02) (the “Tag-Along Member”) to include in the Proposed Tag-Along Disposition a pro rata portion of the Membership Interests owned by the Tag-Along Member (the

“Pro Rata Tag-Along Membership Interest”). The mechanics for a Tag-Along Offer are as follows:

(i) The Tag-Along Offer shall be made in writing and shall specify the name of the proposed Transferee, the Membership Interest to be Disposed of by the Tag-Initiating Member to such proposed Transferee, the material terms of such Proposed Tag-Along Disposition, including the amount and type of consideration to be received therefor and the anticipated place and date on which the Proposed Tag-Along Disposition is to be consummated;

(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, the Pro Rata Tag-Along Membership Interest to be included in Proposed Tag-Along Transaction shall be calculated by multiplying the total Membership Interests held by the Tag-Along Member by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Membership Interest to be Disposed of by the Tag-Initiating Member and the denominator of which is the Tag-Initiating Member’s total Membership Interest;

(iii) If the Tag-Along Member wishes to include its Pro Rata Tag Along Membership Interest in the Proposed Tag-Along Disposition in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.05(a) (the “Tag-Along Electing Member”), such Tag-Along Electing Member shall so notify the Tag-Initiating Member not more than fifteen (15) days after its receipt of the Tag-Along Offer (“Tag-Along Acceptance Notice”). The Tag-Along Offer shall be conditioned upon the Tag-Initiating Member’s Disposition of its Pro Rata Tag Along Membership Interest pursuant to the transaction(s) contemplated therein with the proposed Transferee named therein. If any Tag-Along Member timely accepts the Tag-Along Offer in accordance with this Section 9.05(a), then the Tag-Initiating Member shall permit the Tag-Along Electing Member to sell its Pro Rata Tag Along Membership Interest under this Section 9.05(a), and the Tag-Initiating Member and the Tag-Along Electing Member (collectively, the “Selling Members”) shall sell the Membership Interests specified in the Tag-Along Offer to the proposed Transferee in accordance with the terms set forth therein; provided, however, that the Tag-Initiating Member may elect in its sole discretion (and shall not otherwise be deemed to owe any duty or responsibility to the Tag-Along Electing Member to proceed) to terminate or otherwise not to sell its Membership Interest in the Proposed Tag-Along Disposition, in which case, the obligations under this Section 9.05(a) in respect of such Proposed Tag-Along Disposition shall cease;

(iv) If the proposed consideration to be paid to the Selling Members by the non-Affiliate purchaser in the Proposed Tag-Along Disposition does not consist entirely of cash and/or marketable securities, then a Tag-Along Electing Member may elect to receive, in lieu of such other consideration, cash equal to the fair market value of such consideration. If the Tag-Initiating Member and the Tag-Along Electing Member do not agree on the fair market value of such consideration within ten (10) days following the date of receipt of the Tag-Along Acceptance Notice by the Tag-Along Electing Member, the fair market value of such consideration shall be determined by one investment banking firm of nationally recognized standing, agreed upon by the Selling Members or, failing such agreement, appointed by the Presiding Judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, pursuant to a petition to compel appraisal. The determination of fair market value of the consideration by the selected firm, however such firm was selected, shall be final, binding and conclusive on all parties. The aggregate fees and expenses of any such firms shall be borne

one-half by the Tag-Initiating Member and one-half by the Tag-Along Electing Member. Such cash election shall be made in the Tag-Along Acceptance Notice provided by the Tag-Along Electing Member to the Tag-Initiating Member. Upon receipt of such an election, the Tag-Initiating Member shall be obligated to pay such consideration or to cause such consideration to be paid to the Tag-Along Electing Member in cash; and

(v) If for any reason an agreement for such Proposed Tag-Along Disposition is not executed by the Selling Members and the prospective Transferee within one-hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the Tag-Along Offer or, if so executed, the transaction with such prospective Transferee thereafter should fail to close, the Tag-Initiating Member must comply with the provisions set forth in this Section 9.05(a), to the extent applicable, prior to making any subsequent Disposition of its Membership Interest.

(b) Enterprise Parent Drag-Along Rights. If either or both of Enterprise Parent 1 or Enterprise Parent 2 (or a Transferee thereof admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to Section 9.02) (singly or collectively, the “Drag-Initiating Member”) proposes to Dispose of any of its Membership Interest, other than to a Permitted Transferee pursuant to Section 9.02, such that, immediately following such Disposition, Enterprise Parent would retain 50% or less of the total Membership Interests outstanding immediately after such Disposition (a “Proposed Drag-Along Disposition”), the Drag-Initiating Member shall give El Paso GP Holdco (or any Transferee thereof admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to Section 9.02) (the “Drag-Along Member”) written notice (the “Drag-Along Notice”) not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expected consummation of the Proposed Drag-Along Transaction. The Drag-Initiating Member shall have the right (the “Drag-Along Right”), but not the obligation, to require the Drag-Along Member to sell all, but not less than all, of its Membership Interest pursuant to this Section 9.05(b). The mechanics of the Proposed-Drag Along Disposition are as follows:

(i) The Drag-Along Notice shall indicate whether or not the Drag-Initiating Member is exercising its Drag-Along Right and shall specify the name of the proposed Transferee, the Membership Interest to be Disposed of by the Drag-Initiating Member to such proposed Transferee, the material terms of such Proposed Drag-Along Disposition, including the amount and type of consideration to be received therefor and the anticipated place and date on which the Proposed Drag-Along Disposition is to be consummated;

(ii) if the Drag-Along Notice indicates that the Drag-Initiating Member is exercising its Drag-Along Right, the Drag-Along Member will then have 10 days during which to deliver written notice to the Drag-Initiating Member indicating whether the Drag-Along Member elects to (A) include all of its Membership Interest in the Proposed Drag-Along Disposition for the same consideration, on a pro rata basis, as is to be received by the Drag-Initiating Member for the Disposition of its Membership Interest or (B) exercise its Exchange Right under Article II of the Exchange Agreement to exchange all of its Membership Interest for Common Units (without regard to the Section 16 Cap);

(iii) if the Drag-Along Notice indicates that the Drag-Initiating Member is not exercising its Drag-Along Right, the Drag-Along Member will then have the right, exercisable by written notice to the Drag-Initiating Member on or before the 10^th day after

delivery of the Drag-Along Notice, to exercise its Exchange Right under Article II of the Exchange Agreement to exchange all of its Membership Interest for Common Units (without regard to the Section 16 Cap);

(iv) if the Drag-Along Member exercises its Exchange Right under Section 9.05(b)(ii)(B) or 9.05(b)(iii), such Exchange shall be consummated and Exchange Units shall be issued to the Drag-Along Member (A) pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement and (B) at the Drag-Initiating Member’s option, prior to or concurrently with the closing of the Proposed Drag-Along Transaction.

(c) Representations and Warranties; Additional Actions. If El Paso GP Holdco (or its Transferee admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to Section 9.02) shall Dispose of its Membership Interest under Section 9.05(a) or (b), it shall represent and warrant to the Transferee (i) as to its ownership of such Membership Interests to be Disposed of, (ii) that such Membership Interests are to be Disposed of free and clear of any Encumbrance and (iii) as to its power and authority to effect such Disposition. If either the Tag-Along Electing Member or Drag-Initiating Member elects to exercise its rights under Section 9.05(a) or (b), respectively, the Tag-Along Electing Member or Drag-Along Member, as applicable, shall take such actions as may be reasonably required, and otherwise cooperate in good faith, in connection with consummating the Proposed Tag-Along Disposition or Proposed Drag-Along Disposition.

(d) Type of Consideration. The provisions of Section 9.05(a) or (b) shall apply regardless of the type of consideration to be received in the Proposed Tag-Along Disposition or Proposed Drag-Along Disposition.

(e) Disposition of Membership Interests. If, after compliance with the provisions of this Section 9.05, any Membership Interests are Disposed of by a Member to any Person not a party to this Agreement, such Disposition shall be consummated pursuant to and in compliance with Section 9.02(b). Following such Disposition, the terms “Member” and “Members” shall be deemed to mean and include such permitted Transferee for all purposes of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 10
REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF MEMBERS

10.01 Representations and Warranties. Each Member represents and warrants as of the date hereof that (a) such Member is duly organized or formed, validly existing, and in good standing under the Law of the state of such Member’s incorporation, organization or formation and is duly qualified and in good standing under the Law of any states that require such Member to be so qualified and in good standing in order for the Company to be qualified to do business therein, (b) such Member has full corporate, limited liability company, partnership, trust or other applicable power and authority to execute, agree to and perform such Member’s obligations under this Agreement, (c) all necessary actions by the board of directors, shareholders, managers, members, partners, trustees, beneficiaries, or other Persons necessary for the due authorization, execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement by such Member have been duly taken, (d) such Member has duly executed and delivered this Agreement, and this Agreement is enforceable against such Member in accordance with its terms, subject to Bankruptcy,

moratorium, insolvency and principles of equity, and (e) such Member’s authorization, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement does not conflict with any other material agreement or arrangement to which such Member is a party or by which such Member is bound.

10.02 Subject Business Activities. Nothing in this Agreement, nor any fiduciary duties, shall prevent Affiliates of the Members from pursuing or engaging in business opportunities, transactions, ventures or other arrangements of any nature or description, without the consent of the other Members of the Company, in which the Company or the MLP or their Controlled Affiliates are engaged or participating, even if the Member Affiliate’s pursuit of or engagement in such activity places it in direct competition with the Company, the MLP or their Controlled Affiliates within a relevant market or geographic location; and no Member, nor any Affiliate of a Member, shall have any obligation to present any business opportunity to the Company or the other Members before pursuing or engaging in such opportunity.

10.03 Bankrupt Members. If any Member becomes Bankrupt (a “Bankrupt Member”), the Company, by approval of Members holding a majority of the outstanding Membership Interests (excluding any Bankrupt Member) or, if the Company does not exercise the relevant option, the non-Bankrupt Members which desire to participate, will have the option, exercisable by notice from the Company or the Members, as the case may be, to the Bankrupt Member (or its representative) at any time prior to the 180^th day after receipt of notice of the occurrence of the event causing it to become a Bankrupt Member, to buy, and, on the exercise of this option, the Bankrupt Member or its representative will sell, its Membership Interest. The purchase price will be an amount equal to the fair market value thereof determined by agreement by the Bankrupt Member (or its representative) and the potential purchaser; however, if those Persons do not agree on the fair market value on or before the 90^th day following the date of receipt by such potential purchaser of notice of the occurrence of the event causing the Member to become a Bankrupt Member, either such Person, by written notice to the other, may require the determination of fair market value to be made by an independent appraiser specified in such notice. If the Person receiving that notice objects on or before the tenth day following receipt to the independent appraiser designated in that notice, and those Persons otherwise fail to agree on an independent appraiser, either such Person may petition the United States District Judge for the Southern District of Texas then senior in active service to designate an independent appraiser, whose determination of the independent appraiser, however designated, is final and binding on all parties. The Bankrupt Member and the potential purchaser each will pay one-half of the costs of the appraisal and court costs in appointing an appraiser (if any). If the potential purchaser then elects, within ten Days after the fair market value has been decided by agreement or by an independent appraiser, to exercise the purchase option, the purchasing Person will pay the fair market value as so determined in cash on closing. The payment to be made to the Bankrupt Member or its representative pursuant to this Section 10.03 is in complete liquidation and satisfaction of all the rights and interest of the Bankrupt Member and its representative (and of all Persons claiming by, through, or under the Bankrupt Member and its representative) in and in respect of the Company, including, without limitation, any Membership Interest, any rights in specific Company property, and any rights against the Company or its Subsidiaries and its Officers, agents, and representatives and (insofar as the affairs of the Company are concerned) against the Members.

ARTICLE 11
DISSOLUTION, WINDING-UP AND TERMINATION

11.01 Dissolution.

(a) The Company shall dissolve and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following events (each a “Dissolution Event”):

(i) the unanimous consent of the Board of Directors;

(ii) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Act;

(iii) at any time there are no Members of the Company, unless the Company is continued in accordance with the Act or this Agreement.

(b) No other event shall cause a dissolution of the Company.

(c) Upon the occurrence of any event that causes there to be no Members of the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the personal representative of the last remaining Member is hereby authorized to, and shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such Member in the Company, agree in writing (i) to continue the Company and (ii) to the admission of the personal representative or its nominee or designee, as the case may be, as a substitute Member of the Company, effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such Member in the Company.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Bankruptcy of a Member shall not cause such Member to cease to be a member of the Company and, upon the occurrence of such an event, the Company shall continue without dissolution.

11.02 Winding-Up and Termination.

(a) On the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, the Board of Directors shall select one or more Persons to act as liquidator. The liquidator shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of winding up shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidator shall continue to operate the Company properties with all of the power and authority of the Board of Directors. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidator are as follows:

(i) as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final winding up, the liquidator shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the Company’s assets, liabilities, and operations through the last calendar day of the month in which the dissolution occurs or the final winding up is completed, as applicable;

(ii) the liquidator shall discharge from Company funds all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company or otherwise make adequate provision for

payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash escrow fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidator may reasonably determine); and

(iii) all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed to the Members as follows:

(A) the liquidator may sell any or all Company property, including to Members, and any resulting gain or loss from each sale shall be computed and allocated to the Capital Accounts of the Member in accordance with the provisions of Articles 4 and 5;

(B) with respect to all Company property that has not been sold, the fair market value of that property shall be determined and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect the manner in which the unrealized income, gain, loss, and deduction inherent in property that has not been reflected in the Capital Accounts previously would be allocated among the Members if there were a taxable Disposition of that property for the fair market value of that property on the date of distribution; and

(C) after adjusting the Capital Accounts for all distributions made under Section 5.01 and all allocations under Article 5, Company property (including cash) shall be distributed to all of the Members in amounts equal to the Members’ positive Capital Account balances; and those distributions shall be made by the end of the taxable year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs (or, if later, 90 Days after the date of the liquidation).

(b) The distribution of cash or property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.02 constitutes a complete return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Member of its share of all the Company’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented within the meaning of Section 18-502(b) of the Act. No Member shall be required to make any Capital Contribution to the Company to enable the Company to make the distributions described in this Section 11.02.

(c) On completion of such final distribution, the liquidator shall file a Certificate of Cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the existence of the Company.

11.03 Deficit Capital Accounts. No Member will be required to pay to the Company, to any other Member or to any third party any deficit balance that may exist from time to time in the Member’s Capital Account.

ARTICLE 13
GENERAL PROVISIONS

13.01 Notices. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, requests or consents provided for or permitted to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and must be delivered to the recipient in person, by courier or mail or by facsimile or other electronic transmission and a notice, request or consent given under this Agreement is effective on receipt by the Person to receive it; provided, however, that a facsimile or other electronic transmission that is transmitted after the normal business hours of the recipient shall be deemed effective on the next Business Day. All notices, requests and consents to be sent to a Member must be sent to or made at the addresses given for that Member on Exhibit A or in the instrument specified in Section 9.02(b)(i)(A)(I) or (II), or such other address as that Member may specify by notice to the other Members. Any notice, request or consent to the Company must be given to all of the Members. Whenever any notice is required to be given by applicable Law, the Organizational Certificate or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice. Whenever any notice is required to be given by Law, the Organizational Certificate or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

13.02 Entire Agreement; Supersedure. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Members and their respective Affiliates relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior contracts or agreements with respect to the Company, whether oral or written.

13.03 Effect of Waiver or Consent. Except as provided in this Agreement, a waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of its obligations with respect to the Company is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person with respect to the Company. Except as provided in this Agreement, failure on the part of a Person to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any Person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute-of-limitations period has run.

13.04 Amendment or Restatement. This Agreement may be amended or restated only by a written instrument executed by all Members; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each Member agrees that the Board of Directors, without the approval of any Member, may amend any provision of the Organizational Certificate and this Agreement, and may authorize any Officer to execute, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file and record any such amendment and whatever documents may be required in connection therewith, to reflect (a) any changes resulting from the consummation of any Exchange pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, including any adjustments to the Sharing Ratios, or (b) any change that does not require consent or approval (or for which such consent or approval has been obtained) under this Agreement or does not materially adversely affect the

rights of the Members; provided, further, that any amendment to Section 2.04 of this Agreement shall be deemed to materially affect the Members.

13.05 Binding Effect. This Agreement is binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Members and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

13.06 Governing Law; Severability. THIS AGREEMENT IS GOVERNED BY AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, EXCLUDING ANY CONFLICT-OF-LAWS RULE OR PRINCIPLE THAT MIGHT REFER THE GOVERNANCE OR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and (a) any provision of the Organizational Certificate, or (b) any mandatory, non-waivable provision of the Act, such provision of the Organizational Certificate or the Act shall control. If any provision of the Act provides that it may be varied or superseded in the limited liability company agreement (or otherwise by agreement of the members or managers of a limited liability company), such provision shall be deemed superseded and waived in its entirety if this Agreement contains a provision addressing the same issue or subject matter. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, (a) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of that provision to other Persons or circumstances is not affected thereby and that provision shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by Law, and (b) the Members or Directors (as the case may be) shall negotiate in good faith to replace that provision with a new provision that is valid and enforceable and that puts the Members in substantially the same economic, business and legal position as they would have been in if the original provision had been valid and enforceable.

13.07 Confidentiality.

(a) Except as permitted by Section 13.07(b), (i) each Member shall keep confidential all Confidential Information and shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any Person, including any of its Affiliates, (ii) each Member shall cause its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers and employees to keep confidential all Confidential Information and to not disclose any Confidential Information to any Person, and (iii) each Member shall use the Confidential Information only in connection with the Company.

(ii) disclosures and uses that are approved by the Board of Directors;

(iii) disclosures to an Affiliate of such Member (A) necessary for obtaining board approvals or as reasonably required for reporting purposes, and (B) on a “need to

know” basis in furtherance of the business of the Company, if such Affiliate has agreed to abide by the terms of this Section 13.07;

(iv) disclosures to a Person that is not a Member or an Affiliate of a Member, if such Person has been retained by the Company or a Member to provide services in connection with the Company and has agreed to abide by the terms of this Section 13.07;

(v) disclosures to a bona fide potential direct or indirect purchaser of such Member’s Membership Interest, if such potential purchaser has agreed to abide by the terms of this Section 13.07;

(vi) disclosures to recognized financial institutions that are lenders or bona fide potential lenders to such Member, if such financial institution has agreed to abide by the terms of this Section 13.07;

(vii) disclosures that a Member is legally compelled to make by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand, order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or similar process, or otherwise by Law or securities exchange requirements; provided, however, that prior to any such disclosure, such Member shall, to the extent legally permissible:

(A) provide the Board of Directors with prompt notice of such requirements so that one or more of the Members may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the terms of this Section 13.07(b)(vii);

(B) consult with the Board of Directors on the advisability of taking steps to resist or narrow such disclosure; and

(C) cooperate with the Board of Directors and with the other Members in any attempt one or more of them may make to obtain a protective order or other appropriate remedy or assurance that confidential treatment will be afforded the Confidential Information; and in the event such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the other Members waive compliance with the provisions hereof, such Member agrees (I) to furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that, in the opinion of such Member’s counsel, such Member is legally required to disclose, and (II) to exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information.

(c) Each Member shall take such precautionary measures as may be required to ensure (and such Member shall be responsible for) compliance with this Section 13.07 by any of its Affiliates, and its and their directors, officers, employees and agents, and other Persons to which it may disclose Confidential Information in accordance with this Section 13.07.

(d) Promptly after its withdrawal, a Withdrawing Member shall destroy (and provide a certificate of destruction to the Company with respect to), or return to the Company, all Confidential Information in its possession. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding

sentence, but subject to the other provisions of this Section 13.07, a Withdrawing Member may retain for a stated period, but not disclose to any other Person, Confidential Information for the limited purposes of preparing such Member’s tax returns and defending audits, investigations and proceedings relating thereto; provided, however, that the Withdrawing Member must notify the Board of Directors in advance of such retention and specify in such notice the stated period of such retention.

(e) The Members agree that no adequate remedy at law exists for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Section 13.07, the continuation of which unremedied will cause the Company and the other Members to suffer irreparable harm. Accordingly, the Members agree that the Company and the other Members shall be entitled, in addition to other remedies that may be available to them, to immediate injunctive relief from any breach of any of the provisions of this Section 13.07 and to specific performance of their rights hereunder, as well as to any other remedies available at law or in equity.

(f) The obligations of the Members under this Section 13.07 (including the obligations of any Withdrawing Member) shall terminate on the second anniversary of the filing of a Certification of Cancellation pursuant to Section 11.02(c) of this Agreement following dissolution and winding up of the Company.

13.08 Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Member shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and those transactions.

13.09 Waiver of Certain Rights. To the extent permitted by the Act and other Law, each Member irrevocably waives any right it may have to maintain any action for dissolution of the Company or for partition of the property of the Company.

13.10 Offset. Whenever the Company is to pay any sum to any Member, any amounts that a Member owes the Company may be deducted from that sum before payment.

13.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signing parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and constitute the same instrument.
