This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each of the Crestwood Parties and, assuming the due execution and delivery of this Agreement

by the Inergy Parties, constitutes a valid and binding agreement of each of the Crestwood Parties, enforceable against each of the Crestwood Parties in accordance with its terms (except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and similar Laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or by general equity principles (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law)).

Except for shared voting or dispositive power solely for SEC reporting purposes as set forth in the Schedule 13D filed by the Crestwood Parties with the SEC prior to the date hereof and except as a result of making a Permitted Transfer, as contemplated by the Voting Agreement or as a result of a Transfer of Subject Units in accordance with the Follow-On Contribution Agreement, each of the Crestwood Parties has and will have at all times through the Exercise Date sole voting power, sole power of disposition, sole power to issue instructions with respect to the matters set forth in Article 2 hereof, and sole power to agree to all of the matters set forth in this Agreement, in each case with respect to all of such Crestwood Party’s Subject Units at all times through the Exercise Date.

3.3 No Violation. Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by any of the Crestwood Parties nor the performance by any of the Crestwood Parties of its obligations under this Agreement will (a) result in a violation or breach of or conflict with any provisions of, or result in a default (or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become a default) under, or result in the termination, cancellation of, or give rise to a right of purchase under, or accelerate the performance required by, or result in a right of termination or acceleration under, or result in the creation of any Lien (except as set forth in this Agreement and pursuant to any applicable restrictions on transfer under the Exchange Act) upon any of the Subject Units or any material properties, rights or assets, or result in being declared void, voidable, or without further binding effect, or otherwise result in a detriment to it under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, license, franchise, lease, contract, agreement, joint venture or other instrument or obligation of any kind to which any of the Crestwood Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of the Crestwood Parties’ or any of their respective Subsidiaries’ respective properties, rights or assets may be bound; (b) violate any Orders or Laws applicable to any of the Crestwood Parties or any of its properties, rights or assets; or (c) result in a violation or breach of or conflict with the organizational documents of any of the Crestwood Parties.

3.5 Reliance by Inergy Parties. Each of the Crestwood Parties understands and acknowledges that the Inergy Parties are entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of the Crestwood Parties contained herein.

3.6 New NRGM Common Units Entirely for Own Account. The New NRGM Common Units to be acquired by the Crestwood Parties pursuant to Article 2 will be acquired for investment for each respective Crestwood Party’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof. No Crestwood Party has the present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. No Crestwood Party presently has any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the New NRGM Common Units to be acquired by the Crestwood Parties pursuant to Article 2.

3.7 Accredited Investor; Investment Experience. Each Crestwood Party is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act. Each Crestwood Party is experienced in evaluating and investing in securities and acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk of a complete loss of its investment in New NRGM Common Units to be acquired by the Crestwood Parties pursuant to Article 2, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in such New NRGM Common Units. Each Crestwood Party has undertaken such investigation as it has deemed necessary to enable it to make an informed and intelligent decision with respect to the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and any acquisition of New NRGM Common Units pursuant to Article 2. Each Crestwood Party has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Inergy Parties regarding the terms and conditions of the Option and the transactions contemplated by the Option and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of NRGM. The foregoing two sentences do not, however, modify the representations of the Crestwood Parties in Article 3.

3.8 Restricted Securities. Each Crestwood Party understands that the New NRGM Common Units to be acquired by the Crestwood Parties pursuant to Article 2 have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities Laws by reason of specific exemptions under the provisions thereof, the availability of which depend in part on the bona fide nature of the Crestwood Parties’ investment intent and upon the accuracy of the representations made in this Article 3. Each Crestwood Party understands that NRGM is relying in part upon the representations and agreements contained in this Article 3 for the purpose of determining whether the offer, sale and issuance of the New NRGM Common Units meets the requirements for such exemptions. Each Crestwood Party understands that the New NRGM Common Units will be characterized as “restricted securities” under the Securities Act and that under the Securities Act and applicable regulations, such New NRGM Common Units may not be sold, transferred, offered for sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from the requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with other applicable state and federal securities Laws. In this connection, each Crestwood Party represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act. Each Crestwood Party also acknowledges that appropriate legends will be placed on the certificates representing the New NRGM Common Units to be acquired by the Crestwood Parties pursuant to Article 2 (including as required by the NRGM Partnership Agreement) indicating the restrictions on transfer of such New NRGM Common Units and that Buyer has no obligation to register such New NRGM Common Units, except as provided in the NRGM Partnership Agreement.

4.1 Prohibition on Transfers, Other Actions. Each of the Crestwood Parties hereby agrees not to (a) Transfer any of the Subject Units (other than pursuant to Article 2 herein, pursuant to the Merger, pursuant to the Follow-On Contribution Agreement or pursuant to a Permitted Transfer (as defined in the Voting Agreement)); (b) enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding, or take any other action, that violates or conflicts with or would reasonably be expected to violate or conflict with, or result in or give rise to a violation of or conflict with, such Crestwood Party’s representations, warranties, covenants and obligations under this Agreement (other than the Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreement); or (c) take any action that could restrict or otherwise affect such Crestwood Party’s legal power, authority and right to comply with and perform its covenants and obligations under this Agreement. Any Transfer in violation of this Section 4.1 shall be null and void.

4.2 Further Assurances. From time to time, at the request of the Inergy Parties and without further consideration, each of the Crestwood Parties shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such instruments of assignment, transfer, conveyance, endorsement, direction or authorization as may be necessary, and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or advisable, in each case including as required pursuant to the CMLP Partnership Agreement, to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

This Agreement shall remain in effect until the earliest to occur of (a) the Effective Time, (b) the date that is 60 days following the valid termination of the Merger Agreement, and (c) the mutual written agreement of each of the Crestwood Parties and the Inergy Parties to terminate this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any such event, this Agreement shall automatically terminate without any notice or further action from the Parties hereto and be of no further force or effect. Nothing in this Section 5.1 and no termination of this Agreement shall relieve or otherwise limit any Party of liability for any breach of this Agreement occurring prior to such termination.

5.2 Publicity. Each of the Crestwood Parties hereby permits the Inergy Parties and CMLP to include and disclose in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and in such other schedules, certificates, applications, agreements or documents as such entities reasonably determine to be necessary or appropriate in connection with the consummation of the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the identity of each of the Crestwood Parties, the ownership of the Subject Units by each of the Crestwood Parties and the nature of the commitments, arrangements and understandings of each the Crestwood Parties pursuant to this Agreement.

5.8 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of applicable Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. 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 transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

5.10 No Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against, the entities that are expressly identified as Parties hereto, and no past, present or future Affiliate, Representative, partner or stockholder of any Party hereto shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the Parties to this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby.

5.11 Remedies. The Parties acknowledge and agree that an award of money damages would be inadequate for any breach of this Agreement by any Party and any such breach would cause the non-breaching Parties irreparable harm. Accordingly, the Parties agree that prior to the termination of this Agreement, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by one of the Parties, the Parties shall also be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance. Such remedies shall not be the exclusive remedies for any breach of this Agreement but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity to each of the Parties.

5.12 Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the Parties. The failure of a Party to exercise any right or remedy shall not be deemed or constitute a waiver of such right or remedy in the future. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (regardless of whether similar), nor shall any such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. Only actions, waivers or consents by NRGM or NRGM GP with the prior written consent of the Buyer Special Committee shall constitute an action, waiver or consent by either NRGM or NRGM GP as a party hereto, and the Buyer Special Committee shall be entitled to exercise all rights of the Inergy Parties under this Agreement. Only actions, waivers or consents by CMLP with the prior written consent of the MLP Conflicts Committee shall constitute an action, waiver or consent by CMLP as a party hereto.

5.13 Follow-On Contribution Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing herein shall limit the ability of the Crestwood Parties from exercising any of their rights under the Follow-On Contribution Agreement and the Crestwood Parties shall continue to have such rights during the period contemplated by the Follow-On Contribution notwithstanding the receipt of an Exercise Notice, and no Exercise Notice shall apply with respect to CMLP Common Units so long as such CMLP Common Units are eligible to be contributed pursuant to the Follow-On Contribution Agreement.

5.14 Antidilution Protections. If following the date hereof, the outstanding CMLP Common Units, CMLP Class D Units or NRGM Common Units shall be changed into a different number of units or other securities by reason of any split, reclassification, recapitalization, combination, merger, consolidation, reorganization or other similar transaction or event, or any distribution payable in equity securities shall be declared thereon with a record date within such period (other than distributions in kind to the Holders of CMLP Class D Units or the holders of the CMLP Incentive Distribution Rights pursuant to the CMLP Partnership Agreement), the number of New Buyer Common Units to be issued upon exercise of the Option shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to the Crestwood Parties the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.
