Affiliates as well as direct expenses, including operating expenses, incurred by Targa and its
Affiliates for and on behalf of the Partnership Group (as defined in the Omnibus Agreement) and
(ii) evidence their agreement with respect to certain indemnification obligations.
2. The Parties desire to amend the Omnibus Agreement to, among other things, remove a

Group only for the three year period following the initial public offering by the Partnership and
to expand the Omnibus Agreement to cover all businesses hereafter purchased by the Partnership from
Targa or its Affiliates and any other assets, operations or businesses that the Partnership Group
may acquire, from time to time, after the date hereof which Targa and the Partnership hereafter
acknowledge and confirm in writing will be covered by and within the scope of the Omnibus
Agreement.
