The Capital Account of the TEPPCO Parties on the Effective Date shall be equal to the Contribution Date Value.

(b)           Enterprise and the TEPPCO Parties shall contribute to the Partnership those assets described in Schedule 3.2.  Upon making such contribution, or due to such contribution, as the case may be, each Partner has received or shall receive its respective Partnership Interest and its Sharing Ratio as set forth in Exhibit A.

Section 3.3.  Partnership Capital

(a)           Except to the extent that interest income to the Partnership is allocated to a Partner, no Partner shall be entitled to interest on any Capital Contribution (other than interest, if applicable, contemplated by subparagraph (b) in the definition of Qualified Costs) to the Partnership or any Capital Account balance.

(b)           No Partner shall have the right to withdraw all or any part of its Capital Contribution or to receive any return on any portion of its Capital Contribution, except as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement.

Subject to obtaining any approvals required under this Agreement for the Partnership to borrow funds, any Partner or its Affiliate may (but shall not be obligated to) at any time, upon obtaining the consent of the Management Committee, loan money to the Partnership or guarantee a loan of funds to the Partnership to finance Partnership operations, to finance or refinance Partnership property, to pay the debts and obligations of the Partnership, or for any other Partnership purpose.  If any Partner or its Affiliate lends funds or guarantees a loan of funds to the Partnership, such Partner or Affiliate shall be entitled to receive interest on such loan, or a fee associated with any such loan or guaranty, at an interest rate or fee to be agreed upon by such Partner or Affiliate and the Management Committee.  Each Partner acknowledges and agrees that any loan from any Partner to the Partnership shall not be a Capital Contribution and shall not result in any change in the Capital Accounts or the Sharing Ratios of the Partners.

(a)           A Capital Account shall be established and maintained for each Partner.  The Capital Account of the TEPPCO Parties on the Effective Date will be equal to the Contribution Date Value.

(d)           Upon the occurrence of certain events (as described in Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), 1.704-1(b)(4) and 1.704-2), the Management Committee may agree to increase or decrease the Capital Accounts of the Partners to reflect a revaluation of Partnership property on the Partnership’s books.

(e)           The Capital Account of each Partner shall be determined after giving effect to all transactions which have been effected prior to the time when such determination is made giving rise to the allocation of Profits and Losses and to all contributions and distributions theretofore made.  Any Person who acquires a Partnership Interest directly from a Partner, or whose Partnership Interest shall be increased by means of a Disposition to it of all or part of the interest of another Partner, shall have a Capital Account which includes the Capital Account balance of the Partnership Interest so acquired or Disposed of.

(f)            Any fees, salary or similar compensation payable to a Partner pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed a Guaranteed Payment for federal income tax purposes and not a distribution to such Partner for such purposes.  Such payments to a Partner shall not reduce the Capital Account of such Partner, except to the extent of its distributive share of any Losses or other downward capital adjustment resulting from such payment.

(g)           From time to time the Management Committee may make such modifications to the manner in which the Capital Accounts are computed to comply with Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2 provided that such modification is not likely to have a material effect on the amounts distributable to any Partner pursuant to this Agreement.

(h)           The foregoing provisions and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2, and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulations.

(i)            Except as otherwise provided herein or as required by the Code or Regulations, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit, and any other items of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partners for federal and state income tax purposes as they share the corresponding Capital Account items pursuant to this Section 3.6.

(j)            With respect to any property contributed to the Partnership by any Partner the value of which differs from the adjusted basis of the property for federal income tax purposes, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit or any other tax items, as computed for federal income tax purposes, shall be allocated among the Partners so as to take account of such difference in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 3.7.  Sharing Ratios

The Sharing Ratio (or the calculation thereof) of each Partner is set forth on Exhibit A, attached hereto and hereby made a part hereof.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and on Exhibit A, the Sharing Ratios may only be adjusted with the consent of the Management Committee and the Management Committee shall have the full authority to amend Exhibit A to

14

reflect any such adjustments to the Sharing Ratios; provided that no adjustments to the Sharing Ratios shall be made prior to the Initial Commencement Date.  Enterprise shall begin receiving distributions from the Partnership based on its Sharing Ratio effective on the Initial Commencement Date in accordance with Exhibit A.  Thereafter the Sharing Ratios shall be subject to any adjustments of the Partnership Interests as set forth in this Agreement and on Exhibit A.

Section 3.8.  No Right to Priority of Return of Capital

(d)           Unless otherwise expressly provided in a written notice issued by the Secretary of the Partnership, an annual meeting of the Management Committee for the transaction of such business as may properly come before such meeting shall be held at the principal office of the Partnership at 9:00 a.m. on the second Tuesday in the month of August.  Regularly scheduled, periodic meetings of the Management Committee may be held at such times and places as shall from time to time be determined by resolution of the Management Committee and communicated to all Management Committee Representatives or their representatives.  Each Management Committee Representative shall inform the other Management Committee Representatives of any business matters that it intends to raise at any regular meeting of the Management Committee within a reasonable time prior to such meeting.  The business matters to be acted upon at any such meeting shall be limited to the matters disclosed by a Management Committee Representative or its representative(s) prior to such meeting.

(e)           Any Management Committee Representative shall have the right to call a special meeting of the Management Committee upon at least 24 hours written notice.  Each notice of a meeting shall state the time and place of the meeting, the agenda and any matters which are being submitted for approval.  The business matters to be acted upon at any such meeting shall be limited to the matters set forth in the notice delivered with respect to such meeting.

(g)           Unless otherwise restricted by Applicable Law or this Agreement, the Management Committee or other committees may hold a meeting by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all Persons participating in the

(h)           Management Committee Representatives may vote either in person or by proxy executed in writing.  A photographic, photostatic, facsimile or similar reproduction of a writing executed by the Management Committee Representative shall be treated as an execution in writing for purposes of this Section 4.1(h).  Proxies for use at any meeting of the Management Committee or other committee of the Partnership shall be filed with the Partnership before or at the time of the meeting.  All proxies, written consents and ballots shall be received and taken charge of and canvassed by an inspector or inspectors appointed by the President who shall decide all questions touching upon voting matters.

(i)            Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Management Committee or other committee of the Management Committee may be taken without a meeting and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holder or holders or representatives of not less than the minimum percentage of votes that would be necessary to take such action at a meeting at which the Management Committee Representatives entitled to vote on the action were present and voted; provided, however, that no such written consent shall be effective unless each such Management Committee Representative entitled to vote on such action has been provided with at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice of such consent to be sought or has waived the requirement of such notice.  To the extent required by Applicable Law, every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each Management Committee Representative who signs the consent.  To the extent required by Applicable Law, no written consent shall be effective to take the action that is the subject to such consent unless, within sixty (60) days after the date of the earliest dated consent delivered to the Partnership in the manner required by this Section 4.1, a consent or consents signed by the holder or holders of not less than the minimum percentage of votes that would be necessary to take the action that is the subject of the consent are delivered to the Partnership by delivery to its registered office or its principal place of business.  A photographic, photostatic, facsimile or similar reproduction of a writing signed by a Management Committee Representative shall be regarded as signed by the Management Committee Representative for purposes of this Section 4.1.  Prompt written notice of the taking of any action by the Management Committee or committees of the Management Committee without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those Management Committee Representatives who did not consent in writing to the action.

(j)            A quorum shall be present at a meeting of the Management Committee or other committee if the holders of at least a majority of all Management Committee Representatives are represented at the meeting in person or by proxy.  The voting interest of any Management Committee Representative failing or declining to vote within the time allowed on any matter shall be counted against the proposal.

17

(k)           Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, action on any matter provided for in this Agreement where the approval of the Management Committee is required or contemplated, shall require the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the Management Committee Representatives entitled to vote.  Any unresolved differences (i.e. matters for which a majority of the Management Committee Representatives do not agree to approve or reject) may be submitted by any Partner to the Dispute Resolution Procedure set forth on Schedule 10.23 and upon resolution of such matter in accordance with the provisions set forth on Schedule 10.23, such matter shall be deemed to have been approved by the Management Committee.

(l)            The Management Committee will review, determine and approve the amount of all Qualified Costs incurred in connection with the Jonah Expansion in accordance with the terms of the definition of Qualified Costs in Article I of this Agreement.  Such review, determination and approval may be made either prior to or after the incurrence of such Qualified Costs but in any event, the Management Committee shall (i) as of the Phase I Commencement Date, make such determination as of the Phase I Commencement Date and (ii) after the Phase I Commencement Date and prior to the Phase II Commencement Date, make such determination as of the first day of each such month.

(e)           Resignation.  Any Officer may resign at any time by giving written notice to any Management Committee Representative, the President or the Secretary.  Such resignation shall take effect at the time specified in the notice, and, unless otherwise specified in the notice, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.  Such resignation shall be without prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of the Partnership.

Section 4.9.  Indemnification and Exculpation of the Partners, Management Committee Representatives, Officers and Employees

(a)           No Partner, Management Committee Representative, Officer or employee of the Partnership or any authorized representative of a Partner or Management Committee Representative (collectively “Indemnified Persons” or singularly “Indemnified Person”) shall have any Liability to the Partnership or the Partners for any loss sustained or Liabilities incurred as a result of any act or omission of such Indemnified Person if (1) the Indemnified Person acted in good faith in a manner he, she or it reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Partnership, and (2) the conduct of the Indemnified Person did not constitute actual fraud, gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

(b)           The Partnership shall indemnify an Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses, Claims, damages, Liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts arising from any and all Claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, that relate to the operations of the Partnership as set forth in this Agreement in which an Indemnified Person may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ARISING FROM ANY ACT OR OMISSION WHICH CONSTITUTED THE SOLE, PARTIAL OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER ACTIVE OR PASSIVE) OF THE INDEMNIFIED PERSON, if (1) the Indemnified Person acted in good faith in a manner he, she or it reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Partnership and (2) the conduct of the Indemnified Person did not constitute actual fraud, gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.  The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create a presumption that the Indemnified Person did not meet the requisite standard of conduct set forth in this Section 4.9(b).  Any

22

indemnification pursuant to this Section 4.9 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership, including insurance proceeds, if any.

(c)           Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of any pending or threatened Action made or instituted against such Indemnified Person by a Person other than another Indemnified Person (a “Third Party Action”), such Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made by such Indemnified Person against the Partnership, give notice thereof to the Partnership and each Partner.  The Partnership, at its own expense, may elect to assume the defense of any such Third Party Action through its own counsel on behalf of the Indemnified Person (with full right of subrogation to the Indemnified Person’s rights and defenses).  The Indemnified Person may employ separate counsel in any such Third Party Action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Person unless the Indemnified Person shall have been advised by its counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Partnership.  In such case the Partnership shall not have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Action on behalf of the Indemnified Person, it being understood, however, that the Partnership shall not, in connection with any one Action or separate but substantially similar or related Actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for the Indemnified Person, and such firm shall be designated in writing by the Indemnified Person.  All fees and expenses for any such separate counsel shall be paid periodically as incurred.  The Partnership shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Third Party Action effected without its consent unless the Partnership shall elect in writing not to assume the defense thereof or fails to prosecute diligently such defense and fails after written notice from the Indemnified Person to promptly remedy the same, in which case, the Indemnified Person without waiving any rights to indemnification hereunder may defend such Third Party Action and enter into any good faith settlement thereof without the prior written consent of the Partnership.  The Partnership shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any such Third Party Action unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Person from all Claims and Liabilities that are the subject of such Third Party Action.  The Partners agree to cooperate in any defense or settlement of any such Third Party Action and to give each other reasonable access to all information relevant thereto.  The Partners will similarly cooperate in the prosecution of any Claim or lawsuit against any Third Party.  If, after the Partnership elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Action, it is determined pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures described in Section 10.23 and Schedule 10.23 or otherwise determined in a related binding legal proceeding that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to indemnification with respect thereto, the Partnership shall discontinue the defense thereof, and if any fees or expenses for separate counsel to represent the Indemnified Person were paid by the Partnership, the Indemnified Person shall promptly reimburse the Partnership for the full amount thereof.

(d)           The indemnification provided by this Section 4.9 shall be in addition to any other rights to which the Indemnified Persons may be entitled under any agreement, as a matter of law or otherwise.

23

(e)           The Partnership may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of the Indemnified Persons and the employees, as the Management Committee shall determine, against any Liability that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by the Indemnified Persons or the employees in connection with the Partnership’s activities, regardless of whether the Partnership would have the power to indemnify the Indemnified Persons or employees against such Liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

(f)            In no event may the Indemnified Persons or the employees of the Partnership subject the Partners to personal Liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement except as may be required under the Act.

(g)           The Indemnified Persons shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 4.9 because an Indemnified Person had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

(h)           The provisions of this Section 4.9 are for the benefit of the Indemnified Persons and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons.

Section 4.10.  Competition.

Each Partner, in its individual capacity or otherwise, and its respective principals and Affiliates, shall be free to engage and conduct or participate in any business or activity whatsoever, including, without limitation, the Business, without any accountability or obligation whatsoever to the Partnership or to any other Partner and each Partner waives any right or Claim it may have against any Partner with respect to any competing business or activity or the income or profits therefrom.

Section 4.11.  Liability of the Management Committee Representatives and Partners

It is the intent of this Section 4.11 to restrict the Liability and fiduciary duties of the Partners to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law.  Neither the Partnership nor any Partner shall have any Claim against any Management Committee Representative or Partner by reason of any act or omission of such Management Committee Representative or Partner, provided that such act or omission was performed by the Management Committee Representative or Partner in the belief that the Management Committee Representative or Partner was acting within the scope of its authority under this Agreement and that such act or omission did not involve the Management Committee Representative’s or Partner’s bad faith, gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH ACT OR OMISSION CONSTITUTED THE SOLE, PARTIAL OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER ACTIVE OR PASSIVE) OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE REPRESENTATIVE OR PARTNER.  Notwithstanding the above, a Management Committee Representative or Partner shall have no Liability hereunder for failing to act if such act required the consent of some or all of the Management Committee Representatives or Partners and the required consent to such action was not granted.  Any amendment, modification or repeal of this

24

Section 4.11 or any provision in this Section 4.11 shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the Management Committee Representative’s or Partner’s Liability to the Partnership and the Partners under this Section 4.11 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when Claims relating to such matters may arise or be asserted.  In furtherance of this limitation of fiduciary duties of the Management Committee Representatives and Partners, but not by way of limitation, the following provisions shall apply:

(a)           It will not constitute a breach of fiduciary or other duty for a Management Committee Representative, a Partner or any of its respective Affiliates to engage in any business activity, including, without limitation, activities of the type conducted by the Partnership, even if in direct competition with the Partnership;

(b)           It will not constitute a breach of fiduciary or other duty for the Management Committee Representatives or Partners to resolve any conflicts of interest in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or an agreement with the other Management Committee Representatives or Partners;

(c)           It will not constitute a breach of fiduciary or other duty for the Management Committee Representatives or Partners to engage attorneys, accountants and other advisors on behalf of the Partnership even though such Persons may also be retained from time to time by a Management Committee Representative or Partner or any of a Management Committee Representative’s or Partner’s officers, directors, shareholders, members or partners, and such Persons may be engaged with respect to any matter in which the interest of the Partnership and a Management Committee Representative or Partner may differ, or may be engaged by both the Partnership and a Management Committee Representative or Partner with respect to any other matter.  Neither the Management Committee Representatives nor the Partners shall be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such attorney, accountant or other advisors; and

(d)           Subject to the restrictions in Section 4.12, it will not constitute a breach of fiduciary or other duty for a Management Committee Representative or Partner to contract or enter into any agreement or arrangement with the Partnership with respect to any Partnership property or any aspect of the operations of the Partnership.

Section 4.12.  Transactions with Related Parties

(a)           A Partner (with the consent of the Management Committee) may agree, contract or arrange with any of its Affiliates (including any Partner), or any Affiliate of any Partner, in the name and on behalf of the Partnership, for the purchase of products or services for the Partnership, and the payment therefor, in carrying out the Business as if such parties were independent contractors.

25

(b)           Any contract or agreement between the Partnership and a Partner or its Affiliates shall require the prior written consent of the Management Committee which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 4.13.        Operating Matters

The Partners acknowledge that an Affiliate of Enterprise has heretofore assumed the day-to-day responsibility for the operation and commercial management of the Jonah Gas Gathering System and it is the intent of the Partners that such Affiliate will continue such responsibility in accordance with past practice until such time as a mutually agreeable Operating Agreement can be entered into between the Partnership and such Affiliate (any such agreement, the “Operating Agreement”).  The Partners agree to use good faith in negotiating the terms of such an Operating Agreement but to the extent that such Affiliate and the Partnership are unable to agree on such terms, such Affiliate and its Affiliates (including Enterprise) will have no obligation to continue assuming the day-to-day responsibility for the operation and commercial management of the Jonah Gas Gathering System.

(2)           Special Allocations.

(A)          Allocation of Inherent Gain.  If during the term of the Partnership, the Capital Accounts of the Partners are not restated pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), then except as required by the Regulatory Allocations, gain on Disposition of the Partnership’s assets as of the date of this Agreement and their adjusted tax basis as of such date shall be allocated to the Partners in proportion to their Sharing Ratios.

(B)           Curative and Remedial Allocations.  The allocations set forth in Section 5.2(d)(1)(A) — (E) hereof (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b).  It is the intent of the Partners that to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Partnership income, gain, loss, and deduction pursuant to this Section 5.2(d)(2)(B).  Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.2 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Partners hereby authorize offsetting special allocations of income, gain, loss, or deductions either through curative or remedial allocations, as appropriate, so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Partner’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Partner would have had if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

(C)           Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction, and any other allocations not otherwise provided for shall be divided among the Partners in the same proportions as they share Profits or Losses, as the case may be, for the Fiscal Year.

(D)          If any Partnership Interest is Disposed of during any accounting period, Profits, Losses, each item thereof and all other items attributable to the Disposed Partnership Interest for such period shall be divided and allocated between the transferor and the transferee by taking into account their varying interests during the period in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using any conventions permitted by law and selected by the Management Committee.  All distributions on or before the date of such Disposition shall be made to the transferor and all distributions thereafter shall be made to the transferee.

(F)           Code Section 704(c).  In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Partnership shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Partners so as to take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Partnership for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value (computed in accordance with the definition of Gross Asset Value) including, but not limited to, special allocations to a contributing Partner that are required under Code Section 704(c) to be made upon distribution of such property to any of the non-contributing Partners.  In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership property is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (ii) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder.  Any elections or other decisions relating to such

29

allocations shall be made by the Management Committee in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of the Agreement; provided, however, the Partnership shall select the remedial method of allocation provided under Regulations Section 1.704-3(d).  Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.2(d)(3)(F) are solely for purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing any Partner’s book Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.  It is also the intent of the Partners that the foregoing special allocation provided in this Section 5.2(d)(3)(F) shall be prospective and shall not affect allocations on assets contributed prior to the adoption of the amendment to this Section 5.2(d)(3)(F).

(e)           Allocation of Profits and Losses for Tax Purposes.  Profit and loss shall be allocated for federal income tax purposes in a manner consistent with the allocations of Profits and Losses under Section 5.1, except as required to comply with the curative and remedial allocations contained in this Section 5.2, particularly allocations under Code Section 704(c) and Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b).

(f)            Wholly-Owned Limited Liability Companies. Upon the Effective Date and in the future, the Partnership may own wholly owned limited liability companies (“LLCs”) to hold certain assets on behalf of the Partnership.  The Partners recognize that under Regulations Section 301.7701-2(c)(2)(i), any such LLC will be disregarded as an Entity separate from the Partnership and agree that the tax provisions set forth in this Article 5 will apply to any such LLCs that may be formed.  To the extent any Partnership assets are contributed to a wholly-owned LLC, such assets will continue to be classified and treated for tax purposes as though they continued to be owned by the Partnership.

Section 5.3.  Regular Distributions

(a)           Regular Distributions.  Subject to the provisions of Section 8.2, the Partnership will distribute within 20 days following the end of each month, its Available Cash to the Partners who were holders of record as of the record date for such distribution in accordance with their respective Sharing Ratios determined at the time of such distribution.

(c)           Distribution of Capital Contributions.  Distributions under this Section 5.3 are intended to constitute operating cash flow distributions pursuant to Regulations Section 1.707-4(b) or otherwise not constitute amounts which would give rise to a disguised sale within the meaning of the Code.  The Management Committee will specifically identify and notify the Partners of any distributions which do not qualify for one or more exceptions to the disguised sale rules of the Code.  It is the intention of the Partners and the Partnership to utilize

30

all Capital Contributions funded pursuant to Schedule 3.2 to construct, improve and acquire property and assets of the Partnership.

TRANSFERABILITY OF PARTNER’S PARTNERSHIP INTEREST AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS

(a)           Subject to Section 6.1(b), a Partner may, at any time upon written notice to the Partnership and all other Partners, Dispose of all or any part of its Partnership Interest to any Affiliate or Affiliates.  After complying with the requirements of Section 6.4 and subject to the restrictions in Section 6.5, any Affiliate transferee shall automatically become a substituted Partner in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without any requirement of an affirmative vote by the other Partners.  In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 6.4, a Disposition to an Affiliate shall be further conditioned upon the transferor remaining responsible, as a guarantor, for compliance by the transferee with the requirements of this Agreement unless the transferor submits a Disposition Notice with respect to such Affiliate Disposition as described in Section 6.1(c) and receives the consent of the other Partners pursuant to Section 6.1(c).

(b)           Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, a Partner may, upon written notice to the other Partners, at any time Dispose of all or part of its Partnership Interest to Xxx X. Xxxxxx, his spouse or any of his descendants (or any trust for the benefit of Xxx X. Xxxxxx, his spouse or any of his descendants) in which event such transferee shall become a substituted Partner in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without any requirement of an affirmative vote or other action by the other Partners.

(c)           In requesting a consent to a Disposition of all or a part of a Partner’s Partnership Interest pursuant to Section 6.1(a), such Disposing Partner shall give written notice (the “Disposition Notice”) to each other Partner not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such Disposition, stating the interest to be sold or transferred, who the interest will be sold or transferred to (the “Proposed Transferee”) and shall include with such notice information sufficient to demonstrate to the other Partners that the Proposed Transferee has adequate financial capability to fulfill the obligations of a Partner hereunder as set forth in Schedule 6.1 (Financial Responsibility Requirements), which such Proposed Transferee will assume in the event of such Disposition. The other non-Disposing Partners shall have a period of twenty (20) days from its or their receipt of the Disposition Notice to evaluate the financial capabilities of the Proposed Transferee. Within such twenty (20) day period, each of the other Partners shall deliver to all other Partners its reasonable and good faith opinion as to whether the adequate financial capability of the Proposed Transferee has been demonstrated.  If any Partner fails to deliver such an opinion, it shall be deemed to have determined that the adequate financial capability of the Proposed Transferee has been demonstrated.  During such twenty (20) day consideration period, any Partner may request of the Transferring Partner, and the Transferring

31

Partner shall provide, such supplemental information concerning the Proposed Transferee as may be reasonably necessary for the requesting Partner to make such evaluation.

Section 6.2.  Transfers to Parties Other Than Affiliates

(a)           Except with respect to an Affiliate Disposition permitted under Section 6.1(a) or a Disposition permitted under Section 6.1(b), any Partner desiring to Dispose of all or any part of its Partnership Interest (a “Transferring Partner”) to a ready, willing and able Transferee (“Proposed Transferee”) (or Disposing of all or any portion of such interest by operation of law or otherwise) must first offer to Dispose the portion of such interest that it desires to Dispose (collectively, the “Subject Interest”) to the other Partners (the “Non-Transferring Partners”) as a group based upon the same terms and conditions (with respect to representations, warranties and indemnities) as those under which, and for the same value that, the Transferring Partner desires to Dispose the Subject Interest to such Proposed Transferee.  Such offer will be made by a good faith written offer (the “Offer Notice”) to transfer all of the Subject Interest and must contain a complete description of the transaction, including any other transactions on which such transaction is contingent (the “Proposed Transaction”), in which the Transferring Partner proposes to Dispose the Subject Interest, including the name of the Proposed Transferee (including, if applicable, the name of the Person ultimately controlling such transferee), the known or anticipated closing date of the Proposed Transaction, the consideration specified for the Subject Interest, and any other material terms and conditions of the Proposed Transaction (including the terms of any other transactions contingent on such transaction).  Each Non-Transferring Partner will have 30 days (as extended pursuant to Sections 6.2(d) and (e), the “Option Period”) after its receipt of the Offer Notice within which to elect to acquire all of such Subject Interest upon the terms and conditions contained in the Offer Notice or determined in accordance with Sections 6.2(d) and (e).  If, within the Option Period, one or more Non-Transferring Partners elects to acquire such Subject Interest, then (1) such Non-Transferring Partner(s) will each deliver its own separate written notice to the Transferring Partner and to the other Non-Transferring Partner(s) during such period that expresses such desire to purchase the Subject Interest (each, an “Acceptance Notice”) and (2) such Non-Transferring Partner(s) and the Transferring Partner will use good faith commercially reasonable efforts to close such transaction no later than the later to occur of (x) the known or anticipated closing date set forth in the Offer Notice or (y) 60 days after the last day of the Option Period.  If the Non-Transferring Partners and the Transferring Partner each used good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to promptly close such transaction, but they do not close such transaction within 90 days after the last day of the Option Period, the Transferring Partner may proceed with the closing of the Proposed Transaction.

(b)           If any Non-Transferring Partner does not elect to acquire its proportionate share of the Subject Interest, each of the remaining Non-Transferring Partners will have the right to acquire, under the terms and conditions set forth in this Section, a proportionate portion of the remaining Subject Interest based on the relation of its Partnership Interest to the Partnership Interests of all Non-Transferring Partners desiring to acquire a portion of such share of the Subject Interest.  The right herein created in favor of the Non-Transferring Partners as a group is an option to acquire all, or none, of the Subject Interest offered for sale by the Transferring

32

Partner.  If all the Non-Transferring Partners elect to purchase the Subject Interest, unless otherwise agreed, each such Non-Transferring Partner will purchase a pro-rata portion of the Subject Interest based on its respective Partnership Interest. If the Non-Transferring Partners as a group decline to acquire all of the Subject Interest of the Transferring Partner in accordance with this Section or if the Option Period has expired without delivery by any Non-Transferring Partner of an Acceptance Notice, the Transferring Partner may Dispose such Subject Interest to the Proposed Transferee named in the Offer Notice delivered to the Non-Transferring Partners upon the terms described in such Offer Notice. If such Disposition does not occur substantially in accordance with the terms of such Offer Notice, such Disposition will have been in violation of this Section be null and void ab initio and the Transferring Partner and the Subject Interest will again be subject to the provisions of this Section.

(c)           Upon consummation of any Disposition made in accordance with this Section 6.2 (whether to a Partner or any other Person), such Transferee and its Partnership Interest will automatically become a party to and be bound by this Agreement and will thereafter have all of the rights of a Partner and the obligations of a Partner hereunder; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, all Dispositions pursuant to this Section must also comply with and be governed by the other provisions of this Agreement, including any restrictions on Dispositions herein and on any Transferee becoming a substituted Partner, for such Transferee to have all of the rights of a Partner hereunder.

(d)           If (i) the Proposed Transaction (and any other transaction that is contingent upon the Proposed Transaction, and any other transaction on which the Proposed Transaction is contingent) contemplates the transfer of any asset, property, interest or right in addition to the Subject Interest to the Proposed Transferee or its Affiliate or (ii) any portion of the consideration set forth in the Offer Notice 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), then the Transferring Partner must include in its Offer Notice its good faith determination of the Fair Market Value of the Subject Interest, which will be the consideration for which the Subject Interest is offered to the Non-Transferring Partners.  If any of the Non-Transferring Partners disagrees with such determination, they will notify the Transferring Partner of such disagreement within 20 Business Days of receiving the Offer Notice.  If such disagreement is not resolved within 20 Business Days after such notice to the Transferring Partner, any Partner may cause such disagreement to be resolved by delivering a Value Disagreement Notice to the Transferring Partner and the other Partners. If more than one Partner delivers a Value Disagreement Notice, all such Notices shall be aggregated into one.  The Value Disagreement Notice must include the names of three Appraisers (each of which must be independent from the Partnership, the Partners and their respective Affiliates) proposed by the delivering Partner. If more than one Partner delivers a Value Disagreement Notice, such Partners must together identify three Appraisers.  The Transferring Partner must, within ten days after receipt of the Value Disagreement Notice, choose one of the Appraisers listed on the Value Disagreement Notice to determine the Appraised Value. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.2(e), the Partners delivering the Value Disagreement Notice(s) and the Transferring Partner will share on an equal basis the costs of the designated Appraiser.  The Transferring Partner and each applicable Non-Transferring Partner

33

will promptly provide such Appraiser with all information necessary or appropriate to determine the Appraised Value, and such Appraiser shall determine the Appraised Value within 30 Days after receipt of all such information. If a Value Disagreement Notice is delivered, the Option Period will be extended until the date that is five Business Days after the disagreement described in such Value Disagreement Notice is resolved.  The consideration to be paid by the applicable Non-Transferring Partners for the Subject Interest then will be a cash amount equal to the Appraised Value of the Subject Interest, as determined by the Appraiser.

(e)           Any Transferring Partner may withdraw its offer altogether (including to the original offeror) if the Appraised Value is less than 90% of the Fair Market Value stated in the Offer Notice, provided that in such case the Transferring Partner will be solely responsible for the costs of the designated Appraiser.  Absent fraud or manifest error, the Appraised Value determination will be final and binding and not subject to further appeal.

Section 6.3.  Changes in Control

A change in control of an Enterprise Parent Entity or any TEPPCO Parent Entity, or the merger or sale thereof of such an Enterprise Parent Entity or any TEPPCO Parent Entity to a previously unrelated Third Party, shall not be considered a Disposition of the Partnership Interest by the affected Partner and the other Partner’s rights under this Article 6 shall not be considered to be activated or applicable.

Section 6.4.  General Conditions of Transfers

Every Disposition of all or any part of a Partner’s Partnership Interest under any provision of this Agreement shall be conditioned upon it being effective only when (i) the party receiving such Partnership Interest agrees in writing to be bound by this Agreement and to assume all obligations, Liabilities and duties with respect to that Partnership Interest to which the prior holder was bound and that the Disposition shall not cause or create any right on the part of any Person to cause a winding up or dissolution of the Partnership that is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement and (ii) a true copy of the document or instrument evidencing the Disposition of all or any part of such Partner’s Partnership Interest, certified as such by a duly authorized representative of the Disposing Partner, is furnished to the Partnership (a copy of which will be furnished to each Partner upon written request).

Section 6.5.  Limitation on Dispositions to Avoid Termination

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, a Partner’s right to Dispose of all or a part of its Partnership Interest shall not be allowed if (i) when aggregated with the total of all other Dispositions of Partnership Interests within the preceding twelve (12) months, said Disposition results in the Partnership being considered to have terminated within the meaning of Code Section 708(b)(1)(B), (ii) would otherwise cause the Partnership to lose its status as a partnership for federal income tax purposes; or (ii) would violate any federal securities laws or any applicable state securities laws (including suitability standards).  Any Partner Disposing of

34

all or any portion of its Partnership Interest shall promptly notify the Tax Matters Partner of such Disposition.

DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP

Section 8.1.  Events Causing Dissolution

(a)           The Partnership shall be dissolved upon the first of the following to occur:

(1)           the entry of a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction adjudicating the Partnership to be bankrupt, and the expiration without appeal of the period, if any, allowed by Applicable Law in which to appeal therefrom;

(2)           the dissolution or bankruptcy of a Partner or any other withdrawal event of a Partner;

(3)           the condemnation or other Disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership;

36

(4)           the election to dissolve the Partnership by each of the Partners; or

(5)           the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under the Act.

(b)           Dissolution of the Partnership shall be effective as of the day on which the event occurs giving rise to the dissolution, but the Partnership shall not terminate until there has been a winding up of the business and affairs, and the assets of the Partnership have been distributed as provided in Section 8.2.

(c)           Notwithstanding anything in Section 8.1(a) to the contrary, if a dissolution of the Partnership would otherwise occur due to the occurrence of an event of dissolution under Section 8.1(a)(1) or (a)(2), the Partnership may be reconstituted if there remains at least two (2) Partners and such remaining Partners elect to continue the business of the Partnership.

(d)           Upon dissolution of the Partnership upon an event occurring to a Partner described in Section 8.1(a)(2) (the “Withdrawing Partner”), then within thirty (30) days after the Partnership delivers notice of such event to the Partners, at least fifty percent (50%) of such other Partners (by Sharing Ratio and excluding the Sharing Ratio of the Withdrawing Partner) may elect to reconstitute the Partnership and continue the business of the Partnership on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement by forming a new partnership on terms identical to those set forth in this Agreement and, as necessary, admitting an additional Partner chosen by such other Partners.  Such other Partners shall be deemed to have voted for and consented to such reconstitution unless a written statement objecting to the reconstitution shall have been received by the Partnership within thirty (30) days after notice of dissolution was made to such Partner.  Upon any such election to reconstitute by at least fifty percent (50%) of such other Partners (determined by the Sharing Ratios of the Partners and excluding the Sharing Ratio of the Withdrawing Partner), all Partners, the Withdrawing Partner, and successors shall be bound thereby and shall be deemed to have approved thereof.  Unless such an election to reconstitute is made within the applicable time period as set forth above, the Partnership shall conduct only activities necessary to wind up its affairs.  If such an election is so made, then:

(1)             the reconstituted Partnership shall continue until dissolved in accordance with Section 8.2;

(2)             the interest of the Withdrawing Partner shall be treated thenceforth as the interest of a transferee that has not been admitted as a substitute Partner hereunder; and

(3)             all necessary steps shall be taken to cancel this Agreement and to enter into and, as necessary, to file new organizational documents; provided that the right to reconstitute and to continue the business of the Partnership shall not exist and may not be exercised unless the Partnership has received an opinion of counsel that the Partnership would not become taxable as a corporation or otherwise be taxed as an association for federal income tax purposes upon the exercise of such right to continue.

37

Section 8.2.  Liquidation and Termination.

Subject to Section 8.1, upon dissolution of the Partnership, a representative of the Partnership selected by all of the Partners (not including any Partner in breach of any provision of this Agreement at the time of dissolution) shall act as a liquidator or may appoint one or more Partners as liquidator (“Liquidator”).  The Liquidator shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Partnership and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act.  The costs of liquidation shall be borne as a Partnership expense.  Until final distribution, the Liquidator shall continue to operate the facilities owned by the Partnership with all of the power and authority of the Partners for a reasonable period of time to allow for the sale of all or a part of the assets of the Partnership.  The steps to be accomplished by the Liquidator are as follows:

(a)           as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final liquidation, the Liquidator shall cause a proper accounting to be made of the Partnership’s assets, Liabilities, and operations through the last day of the calendar month in which the dissolution occurs or the final liquidation is completed, as applicable;

(b)           the Liquidator shall cause any notices required by Applicable Law to be mailed to each known creditor of and claimant against the Partnership in the manner described by such Applicable Law;

(c)           subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Act, the Liquidator shall distribute the assets of the Partnership in the following order:

(1)           the Liquidator shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Partnership funds all of the Liabilities of the Partnership, including, without limitation, all expenses incurred in liquidation or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including, without limitation, the establishment of a cash escrow fund for contingent Liabilities in such amount and for such term as the Liquidator may reasonably determine).  The Liabilities of the Partnership shall include any Liabilities owing to a Partner under any contracts entered into between the Partnership and such Partner; and

(2)           all remaining assets of the Partnership shall be distributed to the Partners as follows:

(A)          the Liquidator may sell any or all Partnership assets, including to one or more of the Partners (other than any Partner in breach of any provision of this Agreement at the time of dissolution), and any resulting gain or loss from each sale shall be computed and allocated to the Capital Accounts of the Partners;

(B)           with respect to all Partnership assets that have not been sold, the fair market value of those assets (as determined by the Liquidator using any method of valuation as it, using its best judgment, deems reasonable) shall be determined and the Capital Accounts of the Partners shall be adjusted to reflect the manner in which the unrealized Profits, Losses, income, gain, loss, and deduction inherent in assets that have not been reflected in the Capital Accounts previously would be allocated among the Partners if there were a taxable

38

Disposition of those assets for the fair market value of those assets on the date of distribution; and

(C)           Partnership assets shall be distributed among the Partners ratably in proportion to each Partner’s positive Capital Account balances, as determined after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the taxable year of the Partnership during which the liquidation of the Partnership occurs (other than those made by reason of this clause (2)); and in each case, those distributions shall be made by the end of the taxable year of the Partnership during which the liquidation of the Partnership occurs (or, if later, ninety (90) days after the date of the liquidation).

(D)          All distributions in kind to the Partners shall be made subject to the Liability of each Partner for Liabilities theretofore incurred under the terms of this Agreement or for which the Partnership has committed prior to the date of dissolution.  The distribution of cash and/or other assets of the Partnership to a Partner in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.2 constitutes a complete return to the Partner of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Partner of its Partnership Interest.  To the extent that a Partner returns funds to the Partnership, it has no Claim against any other Partner for those funds.

Section 8.3.  Provision for Contingent Claims

(a)           The Liquidator shall make a reasonable provision to pay all Liabilities actually known to the Partnership but for which the identity of the claimant is unknown; and

(b)           If there are insufficient assets to both pay the creditors pursuant to Section 8.2 and to establish the provision contemplated by Section 8.3(a), the Liabilities shall be paid as provided for in accordance to their priority, and, among Liabilities of equal priority, ratably to the extent of assets therefor.

Section 8.4.  Partner’s Purchase of Property

In connection with the winding up of the Partnership, any Partner or its Affiliate may bid in any open bidding process held by the Liquidator and, if its bid is determined to be the best, it may purchase any assets of the Partnership upon dissolution.  The Liquidator shall notify each Partner in writing of any Third Party offers it receives to purchase any Partnership assets.  Each Partner shall have the preferential right to purchase any Partnership assets for the same price and on the same terms and conditions offered in writing by any Third Party.  The rights available to the Partners as set forth in this Section 8.4 shall be exercised by written election delivered to the Liquidator within thirty (30) Business Days after such Partner has received notice of the Third Party offer and the failure to respond to a notice of a Third Party offer shall be deemed a waiver of the rights under this Section.  If more than one Partner submits a bid, the Liquidator shall notify each Partner who submitted a bid of such fact and each such Partner shall be given the opportunity to submit a second bid on such Partnership assets which must be higher than the amount bid by the Third Party.  The Partner who submits the highest second bid shall have the right to purchase the assets.  Any Partner entitled to purchase an asset may elect to have part or

39

all of such asset distributed to the Partner in kind to the extent of its Capital Account balance and/or in exchange for the assumption of Liabilities of the Partnership.

(5)           all conveyances and other instruments that the Management Committee deems appropriate to reflect the dissolution and termination of the Partnership.

(b)           The appointment of the President by each Partner as an agent and attorney-in-fact shall be deemed irrevocable and to be a power coupled with an interest and shall survive the legal incapacity of any Person hereby giving such power and the Disposition of all or any part of the Partnership Interest of such Person; provided, however, that in the event of the Disposition by a Partner of all its Partnership Interest, the foregoing power of attorney shall survive such Disposition only until such time as the transferee shall have been admitted to the Partnership as a Partner, and all required documents and instruments shall have been duly executed, filed and recorded to effect such substitution.

(c)           The Partners hereby expressly consent to the delegation of any authority or power of the Partners to the President and hereby consent to the power and authority granted

40

to the President to act for and bind the Partnership as provided in this Agreement and as approved by the Management Committee.

(J)            The Capital Contributions of Enterprise as of the Phase I Commencement Date and as of the first day of each month until the earlier of the Phase II Commencement Date and the Cost Sharing Date shall equal the sum of the total amount of Qualified Costs paid (or in the case of the Enterprise Cost of Capital, which have been incurred) by or on behalf of Enterprise as of such measurement date which are not reimbursable to Enterprise pursuant to Schedule 3.2.

(K)          The Sharing Ratio of the TEPPCO Parties as of the Phase I Commencement Date and as of the first day of each month until the earlier of the Phase II Commencement Date and the Cost Sharing Date shall equal one minus the Enterprise Sharing Ratio as determined in accordance with (L) below as of each such applicable date.

(L)           The Sharing Ratio of Enterprise as of the Phase I Commencement Date and as of the first day of each month until the earlier of the Phase II Commencement Date and the Cost Sharing Date shall equal (i) the total amount of Qualified Costs paid (or in the case of the Enterprise Cost of Capital, which are incurred) by Enterprise as of the applicable measurement date which are not reimbursable to Enterprise pursuant to Schedule 3.2 divided by (ii) the sum of (a) the Initial TEPPCO Agreed Amount and (b) the total amount of Qualified Costs paid (or in the case of the Enterprise Cost of Capital, which have been incurred), as of each such applicable measurement date.

Capital Contributions and Sharing Ratios of the Partners as of the earlier of the Phase II Commencement Date and the Cost Sharing Date (defined in Schedule 3.2) and thereafter until any Capital Contribution is made to the Partnership other than in accordance with such Sharing Ratio:

		Capital Contributions		Sharing Ratio
TEPPCO Parties		(M)		(O)
Enterprise		(N)		(P)

(M)         The Capital Contributions of the TEPPCO Parties as of the earlier of the Phase II Commencement Date and the Cost Sharing Date shall be calculated as of such date and shall equal the sum of (i) the Initial TEPPCO Agreed Amount and (ii) 50% of the total amount of Qualified Costs paid (or in the case of the Enterprise Cost of Capital Contribution, which have been incurred) by or on behalf of Enterprise as of such measurement date which have been

reimbursed (or are reimbursable) to Enterprise pursuant to Schedule 3.2.

(N)          The Capital Contributions of Enterprise effective upon the earlier of the Phase II Commencement Date and the Cost Sharing Date shall be calculated as of the such date and shall equal the total amount of Qualified Costs paid (or in the case of the Enterprise Cost of Capital, which have been incurred) by or on behalf of Enterprise through such date and which are not reimbursable to Enterprise pursuant to Schedule 3.2.

(O)          In the event that the Cost Sharing Date occurs prior to the Phase II Commencement Date, the Sharing Ratio of the TEPPCO Parties (the “TEPPCO Percentage”) shall equal one minus the Enterprise Percentage (defined below).  In the event the Cost Sharing Date does not occur prior to the Phase II Commencement Date, the Sharing Ratio of the TEPPCO Parties shall equal one minus the Enterprise Phase II Percentage (defined below).

(P)           In the event that the Cost Sharing Date occurs prior to the Phase II Commencement Date, the Sharing Ratio of Enterprise as of the Cost Sharing Date (the “Enterprise Percentage”) shall equal (x) $207.6 million divided by (y) the sum of (i) the Initial TEPPCO Agreed Amount and (ii) $415.2 million.  In the event the Cost Sharing Date does not occur prior to the Phase II Commencement Date, the Sharing Ratio of Enterprise (the “Enterprise Phase II Percentage”) shall equal (x) the total amount of Qualified Costs paid (or in the case of the Enterprise Cost of Capital, which have been incurred) by Enterprise which are not reimbursable to Enterprise pursuant to Schedule 3.2 divided by (y) the JV Total Capital Investment.  The term “JV Total Capital Investment” as of the applicable date shall mean the sum of (i) the Initial TEPPCO Agreed Amount and (ii) the total amount of Qualified Costs paid as of the date of the Phase II Commencement Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Phase II Commencement Date occurs prior to the Cost Sharing Date and to the extent Qualified Costs are incurred to complete the Jonah Expansion which are not paid as of the Phase II Commencement Date, such costs, when they become known shall be included with retroactive effect (and after giving effect to the applicable reimbursement provisions of Schedule 3.2) in both the numerator and denominator of the foregoing as if such Qualified Costs had been paid as of the Phase II Commencement Date.

Sharing Ratios of the Partners after the Phase II Commencement Date in the event that any Capital Contributions are made to the Partnership other than in accordance with the then current Sharing Ratio:

Enterprise		(R)

(Q)          In the event that any Capital Contributions are made to the Partnership other than in accordance with the then current Sharing Ratio of the Partners and other than as contemplated by

the Jonah Expansion reimbursement provisions, the Sharing Ratio of the TEPPCO Parties will be adjusted to a percentage determined by dividing (i) the sum of (a) the Initial TEPPCO Agreed Amount and (b) the total Capital Contributions made from the Effective Date to such date by the TEPPCO Parties by (ii) the sum (a) $641.9 million (which amount represents the agreed Capital Contributions made by the TEPPCO Parties prior to the Effective Date other than with respect to the Jonah Expansion and includes the Agreed Base Amount of $641.9 million, the 2006 Well Connect Capital, the Phase IV Capital Contribution, the Jonah Gas Marketing Contribution and the Intercompany Debt Contribution) and (b) all Capital Contributions made by all of the Partners from the Effective Date to such date, in each case after taking into account any modification necessary to fairly and equitably reflect the percentage of participation elected by the TEPPCO Parties relative to Enterprise.

(R)           In the event that any Capital Contributions are made to the Partnership other than in accordance with the then current Sharing Ratio of the Partners and other than as contemplated by the Jonah Expansion reimbursement provisions, the Sharing Ratio of Enterprise will be adjusted to a percentage determined by dividing (i) the total Capital Contributions made as of such date by Enterprise by (ii) the sum (a) the Initial TEPPCO Agreed Amount and (b) all Capital Contributions made by all of the Partners from the Effective Date to such date, in each case after taking into account any modification necessary to fairly and equitably reflect the percentage of participation elected by the TEPPCO Parties relative to Enterprise.

SCHEDULE 3.2

TO THE

AMENDED AND RESTATED

AGREEMENT OF PARTNERSHIP

OF

JONAH GAS GATHERING COMPANY

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

1.             Enterprise agrees to make such Capital Contributions to the Partnership which are necessary to fund one hundred percent (100%) of the Qualified Costs payable on or before the Effective Date and the TEPPCO Parties agree to reimburse Enterprise for fifty percent (50%) of such payable Qualified Costs in accordance with this Schedule 3.2.  Enterprise agrees to fund (by Capital Contribution or otherwise) fifty percent (50%) of the Qualified Costs which are payable on and after the Effective Date and the TEPPCO Parties agree to fund (by Capital Contribution or otherwise) fifty percent (50%) of the Qualified Costs which are payable on and after the Effective Date up to the Contemplated Total Expansion Capital.  The Qualified Costs shall be reimbursed by the TEPPCO Parties in accordance with the following schedule:

(i) fifty percent (50%) of the Qualified Costs actually incurred by Enterprise thru the Effective Date (through August 31, 2006 in the case of the Enterprise Cost of Capital), to be paid on September 1, 2006; and

(ii) to the extent that Enterprise makes Capital Contributions to the Partnership which fund the Qualified Costs that are subject to reimbursement but have not been so reimbursed (i.e., Qualified Costs payable prior to the Effective Date, which are reimbursable but which were not previously reimbursed), the TEPPCO Parties shall reimburse Enterprise for fifty percent (50%) of such Qualified Costs within thirty (30) days from receipt of invoice(s) setting forth such Qualified Costs.

Notwithstanding anything in this Schedule 3.2 to the contrary, in the event there are Excess Expansion Costs, Enterprise agrees to fund the Enterprise Percentage (defined in Exhibit A) of such Excess Expansion Costs and the TEPPCO Parties agree to fund the TEPPCO Percentage (defined in Exhibit A) of such Excess Expansion Costs effective as of the date (the “Cost Sharing Date”) of each payment in excess of the Contemplated Total Expansion Capital.  For the avoidance of doubt, (i) amounts funded by Enterprise (or its Affiliates) which are

subject to reimbursement by the TEPPCO Parties shall be treated as a Capital Contribution on behalf of such parties even if such reimbursement payment is made directly to Enterprise or any of its Affiliates and (ii) amounts funded directly by Enterprise and the TEPPCO Parties pursuant to this Schedule 3.2 shall be considered Capital Contributions on behalf of such parties. For the further avoidance of doubt, after the Effective Date, Enterprise and the TEPPCO Parties shall each directly fund (by Capital Contribution to the Partnership or otherwise), 50% of the Qualified Costs payable in connection with the Jonah Expansion up until the total amount of Qualified Costs paid in connection with the Jonah Expansion exceed the Contemplated Total Expansion Capital at which time Enterprise will directly fund (by Capital Contribution to the Partnership or otherwise) the Enterprise Percentage of the Excess Expansion Costs and the TEPPCO Parties will directly fund (by Capital Contribution to the Partnership or otherwise) the TEPPCO Percentage of the Excess Expansion Costs.

2. If there is an Additional Expansion, each of the Partners agree to fund such Additional Expansion in proportion to their relative Sharing Ratios (or their Final Ownership Interest (defined below) if such Additional Expansion were to occur prior to the earlier of the Phase II Commencement Date or the Cost Sharing Date in which event the contribution and reimbursement provisions set forth below for well connect capital and other capital projects shall apply in like manner).  It is expressly agreed that any Partner may decline to fund its proportionate share of such Additional Expansion, or to participate at less than its proportionate share of such Additional Expansion.  In such event, such Partner’s Partnership Interest shall be adjusted in accordance with the applicable provisions of Exhibit A and as may further be determined by the Management Committee to fairly and equitably reflect the Additional Capital Contributions made by such Partners. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to well connects to the Jonah Gas Gathering System and other non-expansion capital projects which are commenced after the Effective Date, each of the TEPPCO Parties and Enterprise agree to fund such well connects and other capital projects in proportion to their Final Ownership Interest, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, it being further agreed that the TEPPCO Parties will fund 100% of such costs up until the Phase I Commencement Date at which time Enterprise will, within 30 days of receipt of an appropriate invoice therefore which has been approved by the Management Committee, reimburse the TEPPCO Parties for the percentage of such costs which equal Enterprise’s Sharing Ratio as of the Phase I Commencement Date and that as of the earlier of the Phase II Commencement Date and the Cost Sharing Date, Enterprise will in like manner reimburse TEPPCO for the remainder of Enterprise’s portion of such costs based on Enterprise’s Final Ownership Interest.  The term “Final Ownership Interest” shall mean the Sharing Ratio of the respective parties as of the earlier to occur of the Cost Sharing Date and the Phase II Commencement Date; provided that if any of the parties make any Capital Contribution which is not in proportion to their relative ownership interest other than as contemplated with respect to the Jonah

Expansion, after the date of such Capital Contribution the cost sharing for such projects shall be based on the Final Ownership Interest as may be further adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

3.             The TEPPCO Parties shall have a unilateral right to (i) decline to participate in any required Capital Expenditure associated with any portion of an EnCana Expansion or (ii) participate in such EnCana Expansion in any percentage it determines up to the amount of its Sharing Ratio multiplied by such amounts required to fund such EnCana Expansion; provided that, if an EnCana Expansion is undertaken prior to the earlier of the Phase II Commencement Date and the Cost Sharing Date, TEPPCO’s maximum percentage of participation shall be based on its Final Ownership Interest, as may later be determined.  In the event the TEPPCO Parties decline to contribute their full amount of any Additional Capital Contributions with respect to an EnCana Expansion based on their Sharing Ratios, Enterprise will fund the remainder of such EnCana expansion by making all necessary Additional Capital Contributions without reimbursement by the TEPPCO Parties and Enterprise’s Partnership Interest shall be adjusted in accordance with the applicable provisions of Exhibit A and as may further be determined by the Management Committee to fairly and equitably reflect the Additional Capital Contributions made by such Partners.

4.             No Partner shall be required to make any Capital Contribution (other than the Contributions contemplated by paragraph 1 of this Schedule 3.2 and any other Contribution to which such Partner has agreed in writing or otherwise consented to) unless such Capital Contribution has been approved by a majority of the Management Committee Representatives.  If any Partner has the right to decline to fund its proportionate share of any required Capital Contribution, such Partner must provide written notice to the other Partners of its election not to participate within ten (10) Business Days of such Partner’s receipt of a written statement from the Partnership detailing such Capital Contribution or such Partner shall be deemed to have waived such right and shall fund its proportionate share of the required Capital Contribution together with the other Partners.

5.             For the avoidance of doubt, TMC will contribute all of its interest in Jonah Gas Marketing, LLC to the Partnership pursuant to the Contribution Agreement on the Effective Date and prior to the Effective Date the TEPPCO Parties will cause the conversion of any amounts payable by the Partnership to the TEPPCO Parties or their Affiliates into Partner’s capital of the Partnership.  The Jonah Gas Marketing Contribution shall be considered to be a Capital Contribution of TMC which occurred prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement.

6.             For the avoidance of doubt, the parties calculated the Agreed Base Amount included in the Sharing Ratio calculations set forth on Exhibit A based on the March 31, 2006 balance sheet of the Partnership and such amount includes the

following:

Current Assets		$	32,520,000
Property Plant and Equipment (Gross Cost)		$	412,266,000
Intangible Assets		$	222,800,000
Other Assets		$	6,157,000
Current Liabilities		$	(31,785,000	)
Total		$	641,958,000

It is the parties intent that any amounts which were included in the calculation set forth above shall be paid by the TEPPCO Parties and not by Enterprise or the Partnership such that at the Effective Date the TEPPCO Parties shall have paid (or will be responsible for paying) any amounts which may be due and which relate to the assets included in the above calculation.  In addition, with respect to the 2006 Well Connect Capital and the Phase IV Capital Contribution, it is the intent of the parties that the TEPPCO Parties will be responsible for paying 100% of any such amounts included in the 2006 Well Connect Capital or the Phase IV Capital Contribution and to the extent that any of such costs were included in the calculation set forth above, the TEPPCO Parties agree that the 2006 Well Connect Capital and/or the Phase IV Capital Contribution will be appropriately reduced.  To the extent that there are any other non-expansion capital project costs which are not included as 2006 Well Connect Costs or as part of the Phase IV Capital Contribution or as part of the Agreed Base Amount referred to above and which have not been paid as of the Effective Date, the parties agree to contribute to such costs in the same manner as if such costs were non-expansion capital projects which are commenced after the Effective Date in accordance with paragraph 2 above.

SCHEDULE 4.2

TO THE

AMENDED AND RESTATED

AGREEMENT OF PARTNERSHIP

OF

JONAH GAS GATHERING COMPANY

MANAGEMENT AUTHORIZATION POLICY

Enterprise Products GP, LLC

Enterprise Products Partners L.P.

Enterprise Products Operating L.P.

Management Authorization Policy

Effective Date: February 22, 2006

PURPOSE

The purpose of this policy (this “Policy”) is the delegation by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Enterprise Products GP, LLC (“EPGP”) of approval limits for the various officers (the “Officers”) of EPGP, Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (“EPPLP”), Enterprise Products Operating L.P. (“EPOLP”) and their respective subsidiaries (collectively or individually, as the context may require, “Enterprise”). This Policy is designed to promote the approval process of expenditures at levels which the Board believes is adequate for the efficient operation of Enterprise, while ensuring that material or significant expenditures will continue to be subject to Board approval.

This Policy is not a substitute for good judgment and, when a situation dictates, action may be required which is contrary to this Policy. In situations where persons may be subjected to injury or where financial losses are likely to occur, operational and financial requirements take precedence over administrative requirements. In these circumstances, the highest-ranking individual present may make commitments without normal approvals provided the approvals are subsequently obtained at the earliest possible time.

Other related and more detailed policies and procedures exist, or will exist, for specific purposes such as marketing, accounting and purchasing materials which may be obtained by contacting the Vice President - Human Resources. An example of this is the Financial Commodity Policy of Enterprise that encompasses risk management, marketing and the use of derivatives. These policies provide more specific guidance about different business areas and should be used in conjunction with this Management Authorization Policy.

OFFICER AUTHORITY AND DELEGATION

Officers have the authority under this Policy as, and to the extent, reflected in the Officer Limits of Authority attached as Exhibit A (the “Officer Authority Limits”) and may generally delegate to other non-Officer employees of EPCO, Inc. up to one-half of their Officer Authority Limits. Delegations shall be made in accordance with reporting levels within the Officer’s functional area and only for those items for which sub-delegation is allowed. Delegation by Officers to non-Officers for items such as administrative or operating expenses shall not exceed Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00); provided, however, this restriction or prohibition shall not apply to the delegation by Officers to non-Officers of the approval for payment of administrative or operating expenses, non-AFE PO requisitions or payments on Service Contracts, leases and rentals. Higher limits or specific variations in limits of authority must be approved by the Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) or the Chief Operating Officer (“COO”). The Management Authorization Form for Delegation of Authority (the “Authorization Form”), the current form of which is attached as Exhibit B, shall be used to document delegation to other personnel.

The delegating Officer will retain a copy of each Authorization Form. The original will be sent to the Risk Control Director to ensure the delegation is within this Policy.  The Risk Control Director will then have the authorization form prepared for electronic “read only” access by Accounting and Treasury for matching payment approvals with appropriate levels of authorization. A copy of each Authorization Form will also be sent by the Delegating Officer to the Legal Department. If an Officer wishes to change an individual’s authority, such Officer must prepare and distribute, as set forth above, a new Authorization Form.

A periodic report showing delegated authorities will be distributed no less frequently than quarterly by Risk Control to the Delegating Officers to help ensure documentation presented for payment is properly authorized in accordance with this Policy.

Upon a change in employment of an individual with authority granted or delegated under this Policy, the delegating Officer will notify Risk Control to delete or modify, as appropriate, the employee’s electronic “read-only” authorization form and will notify the Legal Department of such change. Human Resources will also notify Risk Control of such changes to further ensure authorizations are maintained only for the employee’s current position.

If an Officer becomes aware of a problem or potential problem related to delegated authorities, such Officer should request their personnel and Accounts Payable to route some or all invoices or requests for payment to the Officer for review and approval prior to release of payment. Such routing should continue until the Officer has found and corrected the problem or has reasonably determined that no problem exists and that the authorization process is working as intended.

The following is a list of the basic authorization levels and types of expenditures addressed by this Policy:

AUTHORIZATION LEVELS

1.     Chairman

2.     CEO, COO and Management Directors (and officers who are management directors)

3.     Executive Vice Presidents

4.     Senior Vice Presidents

5.     Vice President

All other levels are to be delegated.

FUNDS RELEASE PROCESS

Funds for AFEs will not be released until the project is approved. Project documentation submitted for AFE approval should include a substantial description, explanation justifying the need for the expenditure and properly prepared economic support.

2

EXPENDITURE DEFINITIONS AND RELEVANT INFORMATION

1. AFEs are typically for capital or large expense items that include economic analysis and other critical documentation such as material and labor estimates, project maps and detailed engineering plans used to justify the decision for the expenditure.  AFEs by nature have multiple signatures for approval such as the requesting party, their supervisor, etc.  For Bank and Finance related AFEs, please refer to Item 14 of Exhibit A.

2. Charges to Approved AFEs: Spending limits on these charges aid management in monitoring actual costs against the approved AFE amounts budgeted for the project.

3. Over Expenditures: As soon as it becomes apparent that a project will exceed the original AFE, and the variance amount exceeds the lesser of 10% of the original AFE cost or One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), a supplemental AFE is required with the appropriate level(s) of approval.  The supplemental AFE must be made for not only the anticipated increase over original project cost, but also include the original cost and any information pertaining thereto.  Supplemental AFEs for over expenditures estimated to be less than $10,000 in excess of the original AFE amount can be approved by a senior vice-president responsible for that respective area such as the Senior Vice-President of Engineering.

4. Natural gas, natural gas liquids (“NGLs”), crude oil and refined products agreements and joint venture agreements: This includes all types of natural gas, NGL, crude oil and refined products sales, purchase, exchange, transportation, storage, tolling, processing, fractionation, and compression agreements (contracts).  These contracts and agreements are normally authorized and approved in writing by middle to upper level management in the functional marketing area such as the Vice President-Fractionation, Senior Vice President-Gas Liquids Marketing and Senior Vice President-Gas Processing.

5. Payments under natural gas, NGL, crude oil and refined products contracts: If the payment is the direct result of a specific contract for a specific transaction, and the contract has been properly approved, additional approval for release of these funds is not required.  Otherwise, the appropriate level of management must approve payment.

6. Service contracts, leases and rental agreements:    Service contracts, leases and rental agreements can be made at various locations for many reasons but, in any event, are subject to the prior written approval of the Legal Department.   For this reason, the authorization and approval levels are intentionally much more limited for such items than for AFEs or gas contracts.

7. Non-AFE purchase order requisitions, operating and administrative expenses and charges to service contracts:  Due to the number of possible transactions, this classification provides the most restrictive level of authorization and approval.

8. Payments for insurance premiums and taxes:  These expenditures are infrequent by comparison to other expenses and require specific or technical knowledge as to their appropriateness, and thus should generally not be delegated.

3

9. Sales or disposition of assets:  Sale or disposition of assets with a sale price and or fair market value equal to or greater than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) also requires the written approval of the CEO, the COO or the Chief Legal Officer and the Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”).  Any agreement for the sale or disposition of assets requires the prior written approval of the Chief Legal Officer or his delegate.

10. Guaranties: All guaranties in which Enterprise is the guarantor shall be approved in writing, as to the amount and term thereof, by the Treasurer, or his delegate, and as to the form thereof, by the Chief Legal Officer, or his delegate, and shall be executed only by the CFO, or in the CFO’s absence, the CEO, the COO, the Treasurer or the Chief Legal Officer.

11. Confidentiality Agreements, Employment Agreements and Consulting Agreements: Confidentiality agreements, employment agreements and consulting agreements shall be approved in writing by the Chief Legal Officer or his delegate and shall be executed only by the CEO, the COO, the CFO or the Chief Legal Officer or their respective delegates.

12. Legal Services; Legal Fees:  Only the Chief Legal Officer or his delegates are authorized to (i) retain any law firm or attorney for the providing of legal services to Enterprise and (ii) approve invoices for legal fees and expenses.

CONTRACT ROUTING

All contracts for the purchase of commodities and other goods or services (other than those transactions which are in the ordinary course of Enterprise’s business), Enterprise guarantees, letters of intent and indications of interest (except confirmations and unchanged standard agreements previously approved by the Legal Department) shall be approved in writing by the Legal Department and relevant administrative support (e.g. Treasury, Human Resources, Accounting, Corporate Risk, Contract Administration, Information Technology, etc.) management prior to execution. For example, joint venture agreements must be reviewed and approved by the CFO, the Chief Legal Officer and the Vice President-Corporate Risk, or their respective delegates, for proper financial, legal, accounting, tax, and insurance considerations. Another example is service agreements, which must be reviewed and approved by the Corporate Risk and Legal Departments prior to execution. For any contract requiring an extension of credit, the approving Officer must specifically obtain credit approval from the Credit Department within the Treasury Department.

Appropriate Marketing and Supply personnel must approve all natural gas and NGL contracts with a term greater than one month or a value greater than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) that could expose Enterprise to fixed price or option risk on price or volume.

All commodity contracts must be provided to Contract Administration no later than the day the transaction commitment occurs.

EXPENSE REPORTING

Expense reports (including Cash Advances) must be approved by the employee’s immediate supervisor who has a MAP form on file or, in the supervisor’s absence, the next higher level.

4

Expense reports totaling more than One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) must be approved by a Vice President or higher.

For non-officers, the One Thousand Dollar limit is considered to be included in the line item beginning with “Operating Expenses” on the Management Authorization Form for the Delegation of Authority.  For limits greater than a thousand dollars, please specify under the line item “Other”.  Details of employee expense reporting are contained in the Enterprise Human Resources Policy for Expense Accounts.

INVOICE APPROVAL

Regarding expenditures for operating expenses or capital projects, a duly authorized member of management must approve all purchase requisitions, purchase orders (PO’s) and invoices without properly approved purchase orders. Accounting shall match the purchase requisition, purchase order and invoices with authorization forms as necessary to determine proper approval, and compare the receiving report for goods purchased to the vendor invoice before releasing the invoice for payment. Individuals approving invoices not generated by purchase orders are responsible for ensuring that the goods or services invoiced have been properly received by Enterprise and that such goods and services are required in the course of Enterprise’s business. The individual approving the invoice should be certain that the charges are correct as billed. If expenditure requires an AFE, the invoice should not be processed until an AFE is properly approved.

MAJOR EXPENDITURE MONITORING

The payment of expenditures related to new commercial operating arrangements or contracts (which expenditures have been approved under an appropriate AFE) should be reviewed and approved for a period of at least three months from the beginning of operations or inception of the contract, by the Officer (or by the manager or director who has been delegated such authority) in the commercial group responsible for obtaining the business. This will help ensure that expenditures are being made in accordance with the intent of the arrangement or contract.

CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTIONS

The Chairman, the CEO, the COO or the management director shall, in addition to the appropriate dollar level approval, be required to approve contributions greater than $500 for charitable purposes, such as educational institutions and other publicly or privately funded special interest support organizations.

FINANCE RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The CFO or his delegate must approve all financial guarantees of obligations for any investments, financial obligations, long-term contracts including leases, any non-trade credit transactions and International Swap and Derivative Agreements (ISDA’s).

SCHEDULE 5.2

TO THE

AMENDED AND RESTATED

AGREEMENT OF PARTNERSHIP

OF

JONAH GAS GATHERING COMPANY

TAX MATTERS

1.             Tax Returns, Proceedings and Elections.  Tax returns, proceedings, and elections shall be governed by the provisions of this Schedule 5.2 as it may be amended from time to time by a vote of the Partners.

(a)           Enterprise is designated the tax matters partner (“TMP”) as defined in Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code.  The designation of TMP shall be effective only for operations conducted by the Partnership pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)           The TMP shall cause to be prepared all necessary federal, state, and local Partnership income, excise, and property tax returns and, except for excise taxes, furnish a copy of the proposed return to the Partners for their review not later than one month prior to the due date, including extensions, for filing such returns.  The TMP shall timely file such returns and, upon the written request of a Partner, shall provide the Partners with schedules which are consistent with the treatment of all items on those returns.  The TMP agrees to use all reasonable efforts in the preparation and filing of such tax returns but, in doing so, shall incur no Liability to any Partner with respect to such returns or any elections relating thereto.  On or before the last day of May after the end of the taxable year, the TMP will cause each Partner to be provided with estimates of all information reasonably necessary or appropriate to file its respective tax returns and reports.

(c)           The Partners shall furnish the TMP with such information as it may reasonably request to aid in the preparation of the Partnership returns and which will permit it to provide the Internal Revenue Service with sufficient information so that proper notice can be mailed to such Partners as provided in Section 6223 of the Code.

(d)           To the extent and in the manner provided by applicable Regulations, the TMP shall keep each Partner informed of all administrative and judicial proceedings for the adjustment of Partnership items (as defined in Section 6231(a)(3) of the Code) at the Partnership level.

(e)           If an administrative proceeding contemplated under Section 6223 of the Code has begun, the Partners shall notify the TMP of their treatment of any Partnership item on

their federal income tax return in a manner which is or may be inconsistent with the treatment of that item on the Partnership return.

(f)            The TMP shall not enter into any extension of the period of limitations as provided under Section 6229 of the Code without the prior written consent of the Partners.

(g)           Any Partner who enters into a settlement agreement with the Secretary of the Treasury with respect to Partnership items shall promptly notify the other Partners of such settlement agreement.

(h)           The TMP shall not bind the other Partners to a settlement agreement without obtaining the written concurrence of the Partners who will be bound by such agreement.

(i)            The TMP shall notify all Partners of any intention to file a petition with a court for a readjustment of any Partnership items.  Such notice shall be given within a reasonable time so that the Partners may participate in choosing the forum for the filing of any petition.  This provision shall not apply to any Partner who does not have an interest in the outcome of such matter.  Whether a Partner has an interest in the outcome will be determined using the standard in Section 6226(d) of the Code.  Further, the TMP or other Partner who had brought the action under Section 6226 of the Code, shall provide the other Partners with notice of any intention to seek review of a determination by any court under that Section.

(j)            No Partner may file a request for an administrative adjustment of Partnership items for any Partnership taxable year pursuant to Section 6227 of the Code without first notifying all other Partners.  If the other Partners agree with the requested adjustment, the TMP shall file the request for administrative adjustment on behalf of the Partnership.

(k)           If any part of an administrative adjustment request filed by a Partner is not allowed by the Internal Revenue Service, the Partner filing such request shall seek the concurrence of other Partners with regard to the filing of a petition with a court and with regard to seeking review of the determination by any court in the same manner as provided in Section l(i) of this Schedule 5.2.

(l)            The TMP and other Partners shall use all reasonable efforts to comply with the responsibilities as outlined herein and in Sections 6222 through 6233 of the Code, but shall incur no Liability to any other Partner for failure to fulfill such responsibilities.

(m)          The provisions of this Schedule 5.2 shall survive the termination of the Partnership or the termination of any Partner’s interest in the Partnership and shall remain binding on the Partners for a period of time necessary to resolve with the Internal Revenue Service or the Department of the Treasury any and all matters regarding the federal income taxation of the Partnership and any applicable state income tax matters.

2.             Elections. The Partners agree that the TMP is directed to make the following elections on behalf of the Partnership in the appropriate returns of the Partnership prepared pursuant to Section 1 above:

(a)           To adopt the accrual method of accounting;

(b)           To compute the allowance for depreciation or cost recovery using the shortest permissible life and most rapid recovery method permitted under the Code;

(c)           To elect the calendar year as the Fiscal Year of the Partnership;

(d)           To elect to amortize all organization costs of the Partnership under Section 709 of the Code; and

(e)           To make such other elections as the Partners may direct.

3.             Section 754 Election.  The Partnership shall make an election pursuant to Section 754 of the Code to adjust the basis of Partnership property.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURE

1.             Initiation of Procedures.  Any Party desiring to initiate the dispute resolution procedures set forth herein with respect to a dispute (including a dispute described in the last sentence of Section 4.1(k) of the Agreement) (“Dispute”) not resolved in the ordinary course of business (the “Initiating Party”) must give written notice of the Dispute (the “Dispute Notice”) to the other Party (the “Non-Initiating Party”).  The Dispute Notice shall include (i) a statement of that Party’s position and a summary of arguments supporting that position, and (ii) the name and title of the executive who will represent that Party, and of any other person who will accompany the executive, in the negotiations under Section 2 below.  For purposes of the alternative dispute resolution procedure as set forth in this Schedule 10.23, any reference to “Party” or “Parties” shall include the Partners.

2.             Negotiation Between Executives.  If one Party has given a Dispute Notice under Section 1 above, the Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute within forty-five (45) days following receipt of the Dispute Notice by the Non-Initiating Party by negotiation between executives who have authority to settle the Dispute and who are at a higher level of management than the persons with direct responsibility for administration of this Agreement or the matter in Dispute.  Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Dispute Notice, the Non-Initiating Party shall submit to the other a written response.  The response will include (i) a statement of that Party’s position and a summary of arguments supporting that position, and (ii) the name and title of the executive who will represent that Party and of any other person who will accompany the executive.  Within forty-five (45) days following receipt of the Dispute Notice by the Non-Initiating Party, the executives of both Parties will meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter, as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the Dispute.

3.             Tolling and Performance.  Except as otherwise provided in these procedures, all applicable statutes of limitation and defenses based upon the passage of time and all contractual limitation periods specified in this Agreement, if any, will be tolled while the procedures specified herein are pending.  The Parties will take all actions necessary to effectuate the tolling of any applicable statute of limitation or contractual limitation periods.  All deadlines specified herein may be extended by mutual written agreement of the Parties.  Each Party is required to continue to perform its obligations under this Agreement pending final resolution of any Dispute, unless to do so would be impossible or impracticable under the circumstances.
