USAC, the Compression Group Entities and ETP are sometimes referred to individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”

WHEREAS, ETP, Energy Transfer Partners GP, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, ETC Compression, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, USAC, and solely for purposes of Section 5.18(b), Section 10.1 and Section 10.5 therein, Energy Transfer Equity, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership entered into a Contribution Agreement dated January 15, 2018 (the “Contribution Agreement”) and agreed as a condition of the Closing of the transactions contemplated thereby to enter into a transition services agreement in a form mutually agreeable to such parties; and

WHEREAS, ETP desires to provide certain transition services to USAC and its Affiliates (as defined herein) and USAC desires to accept such services on the terms set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

SERVICES

Section 1.1Services to be Provided to USAC.

(a)ETP shall provide to USAC and its Affiliates the services set forth on Schedule 1.1 (the “Services”), as may be requested by USAC from time to time. If, after the date hereof, USAC desires to amend Schedule 1.1 to provide for the provision of additional Services, Schedule 1.1 may be amended by mutual agreement of the Parties and, in such instance, ETP shall provide such additional services as part of the Services. For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” shall mean, with respect to any Person, any other Person that directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries controls, is controlled by or is under common control with, the Person in question. As used herein, the term “control” (including, with correlative meanings, “controlled by” and “under common control with”) means the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Agreement, USAC, on the one hand, and ETP, on the other, shall not be considered Affiliates.

(b)Each Operational Support Employee who performs Services hereunder (each a “Service Employee”) shall be solely employed by ETP or an Affiliate thereof during the period

that he or she performs Services, and with respect to such employment during such period, ETP (or such Affiliate) shall be solely responsible, and shall satisfy all obligations, with respect to each Service Employee for: payment of all wages and other compensation, provision of all leaves and benefits, satisfaction of all labor, employment and employee benefits laws, maintenance of all health and welfare insurance (including workers’ compensation insurance), recordkeeping obligations, immigration compliance, and payroll taxes and tax withholdings, in each case, during the period that such Service Employee performs Services. USAC and its Affiliates shall have no right or authority to terminate any Service Employee’s employment with ETP (or an Affiliate thereof) during the term of this Agreement.

(c)Each employee from the Compression Group Entities who accepts an employment offer with USAC and becomes an employee of USAC or an affiliate, effective as of Closing or post-closing, will be referred to as a “Transitioning Employee” for purposes of this Agreement.

(d)In providing the Services, ETP shall comply with all applicable Laws and shall ensure that all Service Employees have all required licenses and certifications, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure all Service Employees have all required training. ETP shall perform the Services with the same quality of workmanship, professionalism and standards, as such services were performed by ETP and its Affiliates immediately prior to the Effective Date, in all material respects.

Section 1.2Service Coordinators. ETP and USAC shall each nominate a representative to act as the primary contact person for such entity (each, a “Service Coordinator” and collectively, the “Service Coordinators”) with respect to the performance and receipt of the Services. Unless otherwise agreed upon by the Parties, all communications relating to this Agreement and to the Services provided hereunder (other than day-to-day communications and billings relating to the actual provision of the Services) shall be directed to the Service Coordinators. The initial Service Coordinators and their contact information is set forth on Schedule 1.2. ETP and USAC may each replace its respective Service Coordinator at any time by providing notice in accordance with Section 7.2 of this Agreement.

Section 1.3Cooperation. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate reasonably with the other Parties in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of the Services and to minimize the expense, distraction and disturbance to each Party.

Section 1.4Resources. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, ETP shall be responsible for providing the facilities, personnel, software, equipment, and other resources necessary to provide the Services.

Section 1.5Data Security. The Parties will work together to implement a mutually agreeable means for access to one another’s operating environment as necessary to provide the Services in a manner that is not detrimental to any Party’s network security or operating environment.

Section 1.6Data; Intellectual Property.

(a)All USAC Data is, or upon creation will be, and shall remain the property of USAC or its applicable Affiliate. ETP hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys, and shall cause ETP’s Affiliates and subcontractors to assign, transfer and convey, to USAC or its designee without further consideration all of its and their rights, title and interest in, to and under USAC Data created as part of the Services. For purposes of this Agreement, “USAC Data” shall mean all data that (i) is or has been obtained, developed or produced by ETP or ETP’s Affiliates or subcontractors in connection with the provision of the Services and relates to USAC or its Affiliates or (i) relates to USAC or its Affiliates to which ETP or ETP’s Affiliates or subcontractors have access in connection with the provision of the Services.

(b)All Intellectual Property (i) created, conceived or developed in whole or in part by ETP or ETP’s Affiliates or subcontractors in connection with the Services and (i) based on, derivative of, or created, conceived or developed as a result of access to any assets of USAC or its Affiliates, will be the property of USAC or its applicable Affiliate (“Services IP”). ETP hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys, and shall cause ETP’s Affiliates and subcontractors to assign, transfer and convey, to USAC or its designee without further consideration all of its and their rights, title and interest in, to and under Services IP created, conceived or developed as part of the Services.

Section 1.7Discontinuation of Services. At any time during the Transition Services Period (as defined below), USAC may, in its sole discretion, without cause and in accordance with the terms and conditions hereunder, request the discontinuation of one or more specific Services by providing written notice to ETP at least five (5) Business Days in advance of the date upon which such discontinuation is intended to take effect. For the avoidance of doubt, such request may include a request by USAC for the discontinuation of services provided by one or more Service Employees.

Section 1.8Employment Offers. USA Compression Management Services, LLC (“USAC Management”), in its sole discretion, may make offers of employment at any time following the Effective Date through the expiration of the Transition Services Period to those Service Employees of their choosing. For purposes of this Agreement, unless otherwise extended by the Parties and agreed to in writing, the “Transition Services Period” shall mean the period commencing on the Effective Date up to and including the date that is ninety (90) days following the Effective Date. ETP and USAC shall reasonably cooperate to permit USAC Management to make offers of employment to any Service Employees prior to the expiration of the Transition Services Period, which cooperation shall include, to the extent permitted by applicable law, allowing reasonable access to any Service Employees during normal business hours in order to conduct screening and interviews in connection with employment offer determinations. ETP shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates not to) take any action (or omit to take any action) with the intent to directly or indirectly discourage any Service Employee from accepting any offer of employment made pursuant to this Section 1.8. The Parties acknowledge that the acceptance of employment offers, if any, made by USAC Management to a Service Employee is solely at the discretion of the individual Service Employee to whom offers of employment may be made.

ARTICLE IILIMITATIONS

Section 2.1Force Majeure. The Parties shall not have any liability or responsibility, and shall be excused from performance for, any interruption, delay, impairment or other failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement to the extent and so long as the fulfillment of such obligation is interrupted, delayed, impaired, prevented or frustrated as a result of or by natural disaster, hurricane, earthquake, floods, fire, catastrophic weather conditions, diseases or other elements of nature or acts of God, acts of war (declared or undeclared), insurrection, riot, embargoes, or terrorist acts (“Force Majeure Event”). A Party impacted by a Force Majeure Event shall promptly notify the other Parties of its delay in performance, describing in reasonable detail the circumstances causing such delay, and shall resume the performance of its obligations as promptly as reasonably practicable.

Section 2.2Interim Basis Only. Each Party acknowledges that the purpose of this Agreement is for ETP to provide USAC and its Affiliates with Services on an interim basis. Accordingly, at all times from and after the Effective Date, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any approvals, permits or licenses, implement any computer systems and take, or cause to be taken, any and all other actions necessary or advisable for USAC or its designated Affiliate to provide such Services, as applicable, for itself upon the date that Services are no longer provided hereunder.

(b)any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by ETP with respect to each Service Employee’s performance of Services;

provided, however, that with respect to each Service Employee, no amount accrued following the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Transition Services Period applicable to the Services performed by such Service Employee; (ii) the date that the Services related to such Service Employee are discontinued pursuant to Section 1.7; or (iii) the date that a Service Employee’s employment or service relationship with ETP terminates, shall be a Fee.

Section 3.2Billing and Payment Terms.

(a)ETP shall invoice USAC within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month (such invoice to set forth a description of the Services provided and reasonable documentation

4

to support the charges thereon) during which Services have been provided hereunder for the Fees for all Services that ETP delivered during the preceding month. All undisputed Fees associated with such invoice shall be payable within thirty (30) days after USAC’s receipt of the invoice.

(b)In the event of a good-faith dispute as to the amount of any invoice or portion thereof submitted by ETP to USAC, USAC will pay all undisputed charges on such invoice in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2(a) above, and will provide written notice to ETP within thirty (30) days of receipt of such invoice regarding the disputed amount and the reasons each such charge is disputed. ETP shall promptly provide USAC with sufficient records relating to the disputed charge so as to enable the Parties to resolve the dispute. If the Parties fail to agree as to the amount or propriety of any invoice or any portions thereof within fifteen (15) days after USAC’s receipt of ETP’s supporting documentation, then either Party may pursue dispute resolution in accordance with Section 7.9 of this Agreement.

Such Sales Taxes shall be separately stated on the relevant invoice. All taxable goods and Services for which USAC is compensating or reimbursing ETP shall be set out separately from non-taxable goods and Services, if practicable. USAC shall be responsible for any such Sales Taxes and shall either (a) remit such Sales Taxes to ETP (and ETP shall remit such amounts to the applicable taxing authority) or (a) provide ETP with a certificate or other acceptable proof evidencing an exemption from liability for such Sales Taxes.

Section 3.4Reconciliation of Net Cash. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the cost (including any component of Fees) of any Service provided by ETP to USAC and its Affiliates that has been taken into account in the calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment Amount pursuant to the Contribution Agreement shall not constitute Fees that ETP is entitled to receive under this Agreement and shall not otherwise be payable or reimbursable by USAC or its Affiliates.

ARTICLE IVCONFIDENTIALITY

Section 4.1Confidentiality. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any information provided by one Party (or any Person providing or receiving Services on such Party’s behalf) to the other Party (or any Person providing or receiving Services on such Party’s behalf) in connection with the provision or receipt of the Services shall constitute Confidential Information. Each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and subcontractors to, maintain in confidence and not disclose to any Person, other than its representatives and advisors, nor use, other than in the provision of the Services, any Confidential Information or any non-public information relating to the other Party or its Affiliates provided in connection herewith, except as and to the extent required by Law.

Section 5.1Disclaimer of Warranties. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARTY MAKES, AND EACH PARTY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS, ANY AND ALL REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO MERCHANTABILITY, OR SUITABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF ANY SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE PROVIDED HEREUNDER, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR TRADE USAGE.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any ETP Indemnified Person entitled to receive indemnification under this Section 5.2(a) shall act in good faith and use its reasonable efforts to mitigate the amount of any Losses for which it seeks indemnification, including making a good faith effort to recover from insurers under applicable insurance policies and from other persons who may be liable so as to reduce the amount of any Losses hereunder. If the amount of any Losses at any time subsequent to the making of an indemnity payment in respect thereof, is reduced by recovery, settlement or otherwise under or pursuant to any insurance coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other person, the amount of such reduction, less any costs, or expenses incurred in connection therewith, will promptly be repaid by the ETP Indemnified Persons to USAC.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any USAC Indemnified Person entitled to receive indemnification under this Section 5.2(b) shall act in good faith and use its reasonable efforts to mitigate the amount of any Losses for which it seeks indemnification, including making a good faith effort to recover from insurers under applicable insurance policies and from other persons who may be liable so as to reduce the amount of any Losses hereunder. If the amount of any Losses at any time subsequent to the making of an indemnity payment in respect thereof, is reduced by recovery, settlement or otherwise under or pursuant to any insurance coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other person, the amount of such reduction, less any costs, or expenses incurred in connection therewith, will promptly be repaid by the USAC Indemnified Persons to ETP.

(c)The remedies provided in this Agreement shall not be cumulative with any duplicative remedy available pursuant to the Contribution Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 5.2 shall limit or alter the obligation of any Party to indemnify any other Party pursuant to the Contribution Agreement.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transaction is consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

SCHEDULE 1.1

SERVICES

Human Resources

• ETP or an Affiliate thereof will continue to employ and manage all day-to-day activities of all Service Employees from the Closing Date through the Transition Services Period, or, if earlier, with respect to an individual Service Employee, until the date (if any) such Service Employee commences employment as a Transferred Employee (the “Post-Closing Employment Period”). Cash compensation (including, without limitation, base salaries, hourly wages, overtime pay, cash bonus or incentive compensation, severance or termination pay, and reimbursements for business expenses or travel, including all payroll and employment taxes associated therewith) and employee benefits for the Service Employees will be paid or provided by ETP (or an Affiliate thereof) in accordance with the compensation structure and policies as in place from time to time. ETP or its Affiliates shall process all payroll items for the Service Employees (including withholding, tax filing and payments, reconciling payroll ledgers, and check distributions or direct deposits) and shall coordinate services with all applicable health and welfare benefit providers.
