SHARED SERVICES AGREEMENT
CORPORATE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT SERVICES (TRUNKLINE)
In accordance with Exhibit 2 to the Agreement, ETP provides certain corporate business development services to ETE. In connection with the provision of such corporate business development services for Trunkline LNG and the conversion of the Trunkline gas pipeline, ETE will pay a $20 million annual fee to ETP for 3 years, which annual fee will be fixed for the three-year period.
