ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On September 15, 2006, Southern Union Company (the “Company”) announced a series of transactions and definitive agreements involving the Company and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries designed to result in the Company indirectly owning a 50% interest in Florida Gas Transmission and eliminating its ownership interest in Transwestern Pipeline Company, LLC (“Transwestern”).

To effect these transactions, on September 14, 2006, Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. (“Energy Transfer”) entered into a definitive purchase agreement to acquire the 50% Class B membership interest in CCE Holdings, LLC (“CCEH”) from GE Energy Financial Services (“GE”) and other investors (the “CCE Acquisition Agreement”). In addition, on September 14, 2006, Energy Transfer and CCEH entered into a definitive redemption agreement, pursuant to which Energy Transfer’s 50% ownership interest in CCEH would be redeemed in exchange for 100% of the equity interests in Transwestern (the “Redemption Agreement”). Pursuant to the Redemption Agreement, CCEH is obligated to retire approximately $455 million of indebtedness of Transwestern Holding Company, LLC. Both transactions are expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2006 pending receipt of necessary regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

In addition, the Company entered into a definitive letter agreement with ETP, which provides, among other things, that upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the CCE Acquisition Agreement, the members of CCEH will enter into a Second Amended and Restated LLC Agreement.

Upon closing of both transactions, the Company will indirectly own 100% of CCEH and CCEH will own 50% of Citrus Corp., the holding company for Florida Gas Transmission.

(a)No later than 60 days after the Closing Date, CCE shall prepare and deliver to ETP (i) a balance sheet of TPC as of the close of business on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), and (ii) a calculation of the “Post-Closing Adjustment Amount,” which shall mean the amount equal to (w) 50% of the difference obtained by subtracting (A) the sum of the Base Pro Forma Net Working Capital Amount, the Total Debt as of the Closing Date, and the June 30 TPC Expansion Project Expenses from (B) the sum of the Net Working Capital Amount as of the Closing Date, as reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet, the Base Debt Amount, and the TPC Expansion Project Expenses, calculated as of the Closing Date, minus (x) 50% of the difference obtained by subtracting the TPC Cash Flow Amount from the CCE Cash Flow Amount plus (y) the SUG Expansion Project Expenses as of the Closing Date minus (z) the Estimated SUG Expansion Project Expenses, which calculation may result in an amount that is positive or negative (together with reasonable back-up information providing the basis for such balance sheet and other calculations).

The Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount relating to TPC shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the preparation of the Pro Forma Adjusted Balance Sheet (subject to, in the case of the Closing Balance Sheet, the exceptions from GAAP relating to the adjustments reflected on the Pro Forma Adjusted Balance Sheet).

(b)Disputes. If ETP disagrees with the calculation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount, it shall notify CCE of such disagreement in writing within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the last item to be received by ETP pursuant to the first sentence of Section 2.4(a), which notice shall set forth in detail the particulars of such disagreement. In the event that ETP does not provide such a notice of disagreement within such thirty (30) day period, ETP shall be deemed to have accepted the Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount (and each element of such calculation) delivered by CCE, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. In the event any such notice of disagreement is timely provided by ETP, then ETP and CCE shall use their commercially reasonable efforts for a period of thirty (30) days (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the calculation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount (or any element thereof). If, at the end of such period, they are unable to resolve such disagreements, then, upon the written request of either party, an independent accounting firm (not providing services to ETP or CCE) acceptable to ETP and CCE (the “Auditor”) shall resolve any remaining disagreements. The Auditor shall determine as promptly as practicable (but in any event within sixty (60) days) following the date on which such dispute is referred to the Auditor, based solely on written submissions, which shall be forwarded by ETP and CCE to the Auditor within thirty (30) days following the Auditor’s selection, whether the Closing Balance Sheet was prepared in accordance with the standards set forth in this Section 2.4 with respect to any items identified as disputed in the notice of disagreement and not previously resolved by ETP and CCE, and if not, whether and to what extent (if any) the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount (or any element thereof) requires adjustment. Each party shall bear its own expenses and the fees and expenses of its own representatives and experts in connection with the preparation, review, dispute (if any) and final determination of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount. The parties shall share the costs, expenses and fees of the Auditor in inverse proportion to the extent to which their respective positions are sustained (e.g., if CCE’s position is one hundred percent (100%) sustained, it shall bear none of such costs, expenses, and fees of the Auditor). The determination of the Auditor shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. The Auditor’s determination of the amount of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount shall then be deemed to be the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount for purposes of this Section 2.4. The date on which such items are accepted or finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.4 is referred as to the “Determination Date.” As used in this Agreement, the term “commercially reasonable efforts” shall not include efforts which require the performing party (i) to do any act that is unreasonable under the circumstances, (ii) to make any capital contribution not expressly contemplated hereunder, (iii) to amend or waive any rights under this Agreement, or (iv) to incur or expend any funds other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in satisfying its obligations hereunder, including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of accountants, counsel and other professionals.

(c)ETP and CCE Adjustments. If the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount is positive, then ETP shall pay to CCE an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount (the “ETP Adjustment”), and if the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount is negative, then CCE shall pay to ETP an amount equal to the absolute value of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount (the “CCE Adjustment”).

Amounts owing by ETP, if any, pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be paid by ETP within five (5) Business Days after the Determination Date by delivery of immediately available funds to an account designated by CCE.

No Contract to which TPC is a party provides for the payment by the counterparty to any bank account other than those set forth on Section 3.25 of the CCE Disclosure Letter.

Section 3.26Gas Imbalances. Section 3.26 of the CCE Disclosure Letter sets forth all gas imbalances on TPC’s pipeline system as of June 30, 2006. All gas imbalances on TPC’s pipeline system (whether as of June 30, 2006 or thereafter) are resolved pursuant to the terms of Operational Balancing Agreements (“OBAs”). The majority of OBAs follow the valuation methodology described in TPC’s tariff, which calls for imbalances to be resolved using a Monthly Index Price as calculated under Section 27 of the tariff’s General Terms and Conditions and Section 5(c) of the tariff’s Operator Balancing Agreement - Form N.

To the extent not located at the offices or properties of TPC as of the Closing Date, as promptly as practicable thereafter, CCE shall deliver, or cause its appropriate Affiliates to deliver to ETP all of the books of accounts, minute books, record books and other records (including safety, health, environmental, maintenance and engineering records and drawings) pertaining to the business operations of TPC and all financial and accounting records related to TPC.

TPC Rate Case Work Product has been and will be prepared in contemplation of litigation, and the use of TPC Rate Case Work Product has been and will be under the control of TPC’s attorneys. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, CCE shall not be obligated to provide to ETP any documents or records relating to litigation and regulatory matters in which TPC is involved to the extent that CCE reasonably believes such documents or records are subject to the attorney-client or other applicable privilege in circumstances in which TPC is not the sole client unless the parties entitled to such attorney-client or other applicable privilege shall consent thereto and enter into an appropriate joint defense agreement for the purpose of preservation of such attorney-client or other applicable privilege.

(b)The information contained herein, in the CCE Disclosure Letter or heretofore or hereafter delivered to ETP or its authorized representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be held in confidence by ETP and its

Section 5.3Consents and Approvals.

(a)Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto agrees to use, and will cause its Affiliates to use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or advisable under Applicable Law and regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable including the preparation and filing of all forms, registrations and notices required to be filed by such party in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the taking of all appropriate action necessary, proper or advisable to satisfy each of the conditions to Closing that are to be satisfied by that party or any of its Affiliates and the taking of such actions as are necessary to obtain any approvals, consents, orders, exemptions or waivers of Governmental Authorities and any other Person required to be obtained by such party in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)Each party shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, with respect to a threatened or pending preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree or ruling or statute, rule, regulation or executive order that would adversely affect the ability of any party to this Agreement to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or those contemplated by the CCE Acquisition Agreement, use their respective commercially reasonable best efforts to prevent the entry, enactment or promulgation thereof, as the case may be (including by pursuing any available appeal process). Each of ETP and CCE shall use its respective commercially reasonable best efforts to, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to use their commercially reasonable best efforts to, promptly take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to comply with any requests made, or conditions set, by a Governmental Authority to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the CCE Acquisition Agreement. Each party agrees to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to procure any third-party consents required in the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the term “commercially reasonable best efforts” require a party to agree to any divestiture, agreement, condition, restriction or requirement requested by any Governmental Entity to avoid the entry, enactment or promulgation of any threatened preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree or ruling or statute, rule, regulation or executive order that would constitute a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or prospects of such party and its Affiliates (including, with respect to ETP, TPC), taken as a whole (a “Burdensome Condition”). All cooperation shall be conducted in such a manner so as to preserve all applicable privileges.

(c)By the later of (i) the seventh Business Day after the date hereof and (ii) the fifth Business Day after the approval by the FCC of the transfer of control contemplated by the CCE Acquisition Agreement, CCE and ETP shall file applications with the FCC for consent to the transfer of control of CCE and its Affiliates as contemplated by this Agreement.

28

(d)For purposes of this Section 5.3, each party shall require their respective counsel to cooperate to the same extent as each party is required to cooperate with the other party.

(e)Without limiting the generality of the undertakings pursuant to this Section 5.3 and subject to appropriate confidentiality protections and limitations set forth in Section 5.3(b) above, CCE, ETP and their respective Affiliates shall each furnish to the parties to this Agreement such necessary information and reasonable assistance a party may request in connection with the foregoing and, upon reasonable request shall each provide counsel for the other party with copies of all filings made by such party or such Affiliate, and all correspondence between such party or such Affiliate (and its advisors) with any Governmental Authority and any other information supplied by such party and such party’s Affiliates to a Governmental Authority in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, provided, however, that materials may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning the valuation of TPC, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements and (iii) to remove information that is proprietary; and provided further, that information protected by the attorney client, work product privilege, or any other applicable privilege, shall be exchanged in a manner so as to preserve any such privilege. CCE and ETP agree to inform each other of all communications with any Governmental Authority.

Section 5.4Further Assurances. On and after the Closing Date, CCE and ETP shall cooperate and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all appropriate actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or appropriate to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby, including the execution of any additional documents or instruments of any kind, the obtaining of consents which may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to carry out any of the provisions hereof and the taking of all such other actions as such party may reasonably be requested to take by the other party hereto from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, in order to effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.5Employee Matters.

(a)Except as provided in the following sentence, on the Closing Date, CCE shall terminate the active participation of the Affected Employees in all of the Employee Benefit Plans listed in Sections 3.12(a) and 3.12(b) of the CCE Disclosure Letter, except for (i) the Benefit Programs and Agreements listed as Items 5 and 6 in Section 3.12(b) of the CCE Disclosure Letter, (ii) the TPC VEBA and (iii) the life and long term disability insurance coverage contemplated by Section 5.5(b). Prior to the Closing Date, CCE shall, or shall cause TPC to, terminate the TPC Severance Plan. CCE shall notify Affected Employees of the termination of such active participation and the termination of the TPC Severance Plan prior to the Closing Date. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, after the Closing Date, TPC shall be solely responsible for all obligations and Liabilities with respect to the Benefit Programs and Agreements listed as Items 5 and 6 in Section 3.12(b) of the CCE Disclosure Letter, the TPC VEBA, the retiree medical benefits addressed in Section 5.5(e), the accrued vacation days addressed in Section 5.5(c), the flexible benefit plan accounts addressed in Section 5.5(h), and each employee benefit policy, plan, agreement or arrangement that TPC, ETP or an Affiliate of either establishes, maintains or contributes to with respect to the TPC Employees, on or after the

29

Closing Date, and no such obligations or Liabilities shall be assumed or retained by CCE or its Affiliates. ETP shall, or shall cause TPC to, honor any continuing pay or salary obligations and any applicable legal or contractual rights to reinstatement with respect to all Affected Employees. Except as provided in the preceding provisions of this Section 5.5(a) and in Section 5.5(e), CCE shall retain all obligations or Liabilities and assets with respect to current and former TPC Employees and any Shared Service Employees who do not become Transferring Shared Service Employees in accordance with Section 5.5(g) or otherwise under all of the Employee Benefit Plans listed in Sections 3.12(a) and 3.12(b) of the CCE Disclosure Letter and all other employee benefit plans, policies and arrangements of CCE and its ERISA Affiliates, and no such obligations or Liabilities shall be assumed or retained by ETP or its Affiliates, including after the transactions contemplated hereby, TPC.

(b)Any Affected Employee who is unable to report to work with TPC as of the Closing Date due to disability shall continue to be eligible for any applicable long-term disability and life insurance coverage pursuant to CCE’s or PEPL’s long-term disability and life insurance plans until such time, if any, as such Affected Employee returns to active employment with TPC; provided, however, that in order to be eligible for such benefits, each such Affected Employee, pending approval for long-term disability benefits or return to active employment, must continue to pay all applicable long-term disability and life insurance premiums due following the Closing Date for such coverage. ETP shall, or shall cause TPC to, pay Affected Employees who are on short-term disability as of the Closing Date the short-term disability benefits that apply under the short-term disability program that covers the TPC Employees as of the date of this Agreement. Any Affected Employees who are on short-term disability as of the Closing Date but who subsequently transition to long-term disability shall be eligible for, and covered by, CCE’s or PEPL’s, as applicable, long-term disability and life insurance coverages but not ETP’s long-term disability and life insurance coverages, subject to the provisions of this Section 5.5(b).

(c)For no less than one year following the Closing Date, ETP shall, and shall cause TPC to, provide to Affected Employees those employee benefits that are provided by ETP to its similarly situated employees except with respect to short-term disability benefits, as provided in Section 5.5(b). With respect to those employee benefit plans of TPC, ETP or their Affiliates in which Affected Employees may participate on or after the Closing Date (“ETP Plans”), ETP shall cause the ETP Plans to credit prior service of the Affected Employees with TPC, PEPL and the Affiliates of either, past or present, for purposes of eligibility and vesting under ETP Plans and for all purposes with respect to any vacation, sick days, severance and post-retirement medical benefits; provided, however, that such service need not be credited to the extent it would result in a duplication of benefits. Following the Closing Date, ETP shall, or shall cause TPC to, honor the accrued vacation days of the Affected Employees that remain unused as of the Closing Date to the extent such accruals are shown, either as accruals for TPC Employees or full-time equivalent employees providing services to TPC, on the Closing Balance Sheet. Affected Employees shall also be given credit for any deductible or co-insurance payment amounts payable in respect of the ETP Plan year in which the Closing Date occurs, to the extent that, following the Closing Date, they participate in any ETP Plan during such plan year for which deductibles or co-payments are required. Any preexisting condition restrictions and waiting period limitations that were deemed satisfied with respect to a particular person under

30

any Employee Benefit Plan or any other benefit plan that covered a Transferring Shared Service Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date shall be deemed satisfied by ETP and its Affiliates under ETP Plans with respect to such person on and after the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section 5.5(c) and Section 5.5(f) shall not alter the status of the Affected Employees as at-will employees of TPC or its Affiliates. Except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 5.5(c) and Section 5.5(f) shall not affect the right of TPC, ETP or any of their Affiliates to amend or terminate any of their employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements with respect to ETP employees generally.

(d)ETP shall be responsible for all Liabilities and obligations under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act and similar foreign, state and local rules, statutes and ordinances resulting from the actions of ETP or TPC after the Closing Date. ETP agrees to hold CCE harmless in accordance with Article VIII for any breach of such responsibility and ETP’s indemnification of CCE in this regard specifically includes any Claim by the Affected Employees for back pay, front pay, benefits or compensatory or punitive damages, any Claim by any Governmental Authority for penalties regarding any issue of prior notification (or lack thereof) of any plant closing or mass layoff occurring after the Closing Date and CCE’s costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, in defending any such Claims.

(e)TPC has established the TPC VEBA, the assets and liabilities of which will be retained by TPC as of the Closing Date. TPC is or will be responsible for those post-retirement medical benefits described in Section 3.12(e)(vii) of the CCE Disclosure Letter or described in and/or valued under the CCE FAS 106 Report. In addition to the CCE FAS 106 Report, the Enron Inactive Medical Plan sets forth eligibility requirements relating to post-retirement medical benefits available to eligible current and former employees and retirees of TPC (and their eligible spouses, surviving spouses and dependents). The post-retirement medical benefits that TPC currently provides to eligible retirees (and their eligible spouses, surviving spouses and dependents) are described in the CCE Under Age 65 SPD and the CCE Medicare Eligible SPD. The employer subsidies that TPC currently makes available under cost sharing arrangements with respect to post-retirement medical benefits are described in the CCE FAS 106 Report as well as in a November 9, 2005 letter to then current TPC employees who had satisfied applicable age, service and hire date eligibility requirements. Both the CCE FAS 106 Report and the November 9, 2005 letter describe fixed dollar per year of service employer subsidies for eligible post-1989 retirees (and their eligible spouses, surviving spouses and dependents). The CCE FAS 106 Report describes a 60 percent employer subsidy for eligible pre-1990 retirees (and their eligible spouses, surviving spouses and dependents). True and complete copies of the CCE FAS 106 Report, the Enron Inactive Medical Plan, the CCE Under Age 65 SPD and the CCE Medicare Eligible SPD, as well as the November 9, 2005 letter have been provided to ETP. Effective as of the Closing Date, ETP shall, or shall cause TPC to, establish a plan to provide post-retirement medical benefits to eligible current and former employees and retirees of TPC (and their eligible spouses, surviving spouses and dependents). The eligibility requirements and employer subsidies under such plan shall be as described in the CCE FAS 106 Report and/or the Enron Inactive Medical Plan, and such eligibility requirements and employer subsidies shall be applied to all Affected Employees, including all Transferring Shared Service Employees, with such Transferring Shared Service Employees receiving prior service credit in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.5(c). Any provision of this

31

Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, TPC shall, and ETP shall cause TPC to, take all actions with respect to the partition and distribution of assets and liabilities associated with the Enron VEBA as may be required of TPC by, or contemplated with respect to TPC under, any order of the Bankruptcy Court relating to the Enron VEBA Motion or any order of any other court of competent jurisdiction relating to the partition of assets held under the Enron VEBA and/or the distribution of liabilities associated with the Enron VEBA. For the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the preceding sentence, TPC shall assume liabilities and the TPC VEBA shall receive certain allocated assets with respect to current and former employees and retirees of TPC, former employees and retirees of former affiliates of TPC who provided services to TPC, and their respective eligible spouses, surviving spouses and dependents, all in accordance with the terms of an order relating to the Enron VEBA Motion or any other order of a court of competent jurisdiction relating to the partition and distribution of assets and liabilities under the Enron VEBA, and all such individuals shall be eligible to participate in the post-retirement medical benefits plan established by TPC or ETP under this Section 5.5(e). Except as otherwise indicated in Section 3.12(e)(vii) of the CCE Disclosure Letter or as otherwise required by Applicable Law or the provisions of a final order entered in connection with the Enron VEBA Motion or by another court of competent jurisdiction relating to the partition and distribution of assets and liabilities under the Enron VEBA, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit TPC or CCEfrom exercising their respective rights as the sponsor of TPC’s post-retirement medical benefitsprogram to amend, modify or terminate the benefits provided thereunder, whether before or after the Closing Date; provided, however, that between the date hereof and the Closing Date, CCE shall not amend its post-retirement medical benefits program to increase the benefits provided thereunder, reduce retiree contribution or premium rates for coverage thereunder or expand eligibility under such programs.

(f)In the event that, on the Closing Date or during the Continuation Period, (i) the employment of an Affected Employee is terminated by TPC, ETP or an Affiliate of either other than For Cause, (ii) TPC, ETP or an Affiliate of either fails to provide an Affected Employee with at least the same level of Base Compensation as was in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, or (iii) without the consent of an Affected Employee, TPC, ETP or an Affiliate of either changes the primary work location of such Affected Employee to a location that is more than 50 miles away from the Affected Employee’s primary work location immediately prior to the Closing Date, ETP shall be responsible for and shall pay to such Affected Employee, in a lump sum payment, not later than sixty (60) days following the date of the Affected Employee’s termination of employment, the following severance benefits (the “Severance Benefits”): two (2) weeks of the Affected Employee’s Base Compensation for each full or partial year of service measured from the Affected Employee’s date of hire reflected in Section 5.5(g) of the CCE Disclosure Letter, not to exceed fifty-two (52) weeks of such Base Compensation; provided, however, that in no event shall such Severance Benefits be less than eight (8) weeks of such Base Compensation. The costs incurred directly or indirectly in connection with the termination of employment of any Affected Employee on or after the Closing Date shall be borne exclusively by ETP. ETP’s obligation to provide the Severance Benefits shall be subject to the Affected Employee’s execution of a release of all claims against TPC, ETP and the Affiliates of either, and CCE, PEPL and the Affiliates of either, in a form reasonably satisfactory to ETP and CCE. For purposes of this Section 5.5(f), “Continuation Period” shall mean the one-year period following the Closing Date. For purposes of this Section

32

5.5, “For Cause” shall mean (i) the commission by the Affected Employee of a criminal or other act that causes or is reasonably likely to cause substantial economic damage to TPC or substantial injury to the business reputation of TPC, (ii) the commission by the Affected Employee of an act of fraud, theft or financial dishonesty in the performance of the Affected Employee’s duties on behalf of TPC, (iii) the continuing failure or continuing refusal of the Affected Employee to satisfactorily perform the duties of the Affected Employee to TPC, (iv) the material disregard or violation by the Affected Employee of the legal rights of any employees of TPC or of TPC’s written policies regarding harassment or discrimination, or (v) any other conduct materially detrimental to TPC’s business. For purposes of this Section 5.5(f), “Base Compensation” shall mean an Affected Employee’s base hourly wages or base salary, as applicable, at termination of employment; provided, however, that in no event shall an Affected Employee’s Base Compensation for purposes of calculating the Severance Benefits provided for under this Section 5.5(f) be less than such Affected Employee’s base hourly wages or base salary, as applicable, in effect as of the date of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, two weeks of each Affected Employee’s Base Compensation as of the date of this Agreement is reflected in the “BiWkly Salary” columns in Section 5.5(g) of the CCE Disclosure Letter.

(g) Section 5.5(g) of the CCE Disclosure Letter sets forth a list of the TPC Employees as of the date hereof, including each such TPC Employee’s current annual base compensation, annual bonus, job title, work location, hire date, and vacation balance as of the date of this Agreement, as well as two weeks of each such TPC Employee’s Base Compensation as of the date of this Agreement, as reflected in the “BiWkly Salary” columns, for purposes of Section 5.5(f). Also listed in Section 5.5(g) of the CCE Disclosure Letter, as it may be amended as contemplated by this Section 5.5(g), are employees of CCES or PEPL on the date of this Agreement, who provide services to TPC, and who are being made available for transfer to TPC on the date immediately preceding the Closing Date pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.5(g) (“Shared Service Employees”). With respect to each Shared Service Employee, Section 5.5(g) of the CCE Disclosure Letter sets forth, as of the date hereof, such Shared Service Employee’s current annual base compensation, annual bonus, job title, work location, hire date, and vacation balance as of the date of this Agreement, as well as two weeks of each such Shared Service Employee’s Base Compensation as of the date of this Agreement, as reflected in the “BiWkly Salary” columns, for purposes of Section 5.5(f). In the event that CCE or ETP requests that the list of Shared Service Employees be amended, by adding an employee to the list or deleting an employee from the list within the first thirty (30) days following the execution of this Agreement, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to determine if such request can be accommodated. Not later than thirty (30) days following the execution of this Agreement, ETP may identify to CCE, in writing, not more than five (5) Shared Service Employees who shall not be transferred to TPC. Each Shared Service Employee not so identified by ETP shall be considered a “Transferring Shared Service Employee” under this Agreement. All of the Transferring Shared Service Employees shall be transferred to TPC, and become employees of TPC, on the date preceding the Closing Date. CCE shall pay, or CCE shall cause CCES or PEPL, as applicable, to pay any severance costs relating to any Shared Service Employees who do not become Transferring Shared Service Employees under the preceding provisions of this Section 5.5(g). In accordance with the provisions of Section 5.5(f), ETP shall pay the Severance Benefits, if any, relating to any Shared Service Employees who become Transferring Shared Service Employees under the preceding provisions of this Section 5.5(g). ETP shall, or shall

33

cause TPC to, pay each Affected Employee a base hourly wage or base salary, as applicable, that is not less than his or her base hourly wage or base salary, as applicable, in effect with TPC, CCES or PEPL, as applicable, immediately prior to the Closing Date. CCE agrees that, within the thirty (30) day period following the execution of this Agreement, neither CCES nor PEPL shall terminate the employment of any Shared Service Employee other than For Cause, without the written consent of ETP. CCE further agrees that, prior to the Closing Date, neither CCES nor PEPL shall terminate the employment of any Transferring Shared Service Employee other than For Cause, without the written consent of ETP.

(h)As soon as administratively feasible after the Closing Date, CCE and PEPL shall transfer to ETP’s flexible benefits plan, an amount, in cash, equal to any health care and dependent care balances standing to the credit of Affected Employees under the CCE and PEPL flexible benefit plans (the “CCE Flex Plans”) as of the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, and ETP shall, or shall cause TPC to, reimburse Affected Employees for all eligible health and dependent care expenses that would otherwise be payable under the terms of the CCE Flex Plans on or after the Closing Date. As soon as administratively feasible after the Closing Date, CCE shall provide to ETP a list of those Affected Employees who have participated in the health or dependent care reimbursement accounts under the CCE Flex Plans, together with their elections made prior to the Closing Date with respect to such accounts, and balances standing to their credit as of the day immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(i)Affected Employees will be eligible to participate in the Energy Transfer Partners Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan (the “ETP 401(k) Plan”) following the Closing Date. ETP shall take reasonable measures designed to facilitate the ETP 401(k) Plan’s acceptance from any Affected Employee of a rollover or direct rollover of all of his or her account balances under the CrossCountry Energy Savings Plan 001, the CrossCountry Energy Savings Plan 002 and/or the Southern Union Savings Plan (each a “CCE Defined Contribution Plan”), including his or her loan balances and related loan documentation under the CCE Defined Contribution Plan(s); provided that an Affected Employee shall only be permitted to roll over his or her loan balances and related loan documentation if the Affected Employee makes a rollover or direct rollover of all of his or her account balances under the CCE Defined Contribution Plan or Plans which include the Affected Employee’s outstanding loan balances. The trustee or recordkeeper of CCE’s Defined Contribution Plans shall transfer to the trustee or recordkeeper of the ETP 401(k) Plan any loan documentation for loans to be rolled over or transferred to the ETP 401(k) Plan pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.5(i). The provisions of this Section 5.5(i) shall not be construed to require that any Affected Employee roll over or otherwise transfer his or her account balances under a CCE Defined Contribution Plan to the ETP 401(k) Plan. CCE shall, or shall cause PEPL to, fully vest the account balances of all Affected Employees under the CCE Defined Contribution Plans.

(j)Notwithstanding any provisions of the Southern Union Company Annual Incentive Plan (the “Annual Incentive Plan”) to the contrary, no payment for the 2006 Plan Year (as defined in the Annual Incentive Plan) shall be made to any Affected Employee, and including any accelerated payment pursuant to Section VI of the Annual Incentive Plan), except as provided in this Section 5.5(j). On or before March 15, 2007, ETP shall, or shall cause TPC to, pay to the Affected Employees the amount determined by multiplying, the sum of the total of

34

the amounts reflected in the “Amount at Midpt” column for the TPC Employees as set forth in Section 5.5(g) of the CCE Disclosure Letter plus the total of the amounts reflected in the “Amount at Midpt” column for the Shared Service Employees who become Affected Employees as set forth in Section 5.5(g) of the CCE Disclosure Letter (as it may be amended pursuant to Section 5.5(g)), by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of completed calendar months in 2006 occurring on or before the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is twelve (12). Each such Affected Employee who is employed by ETP, TPC or an affiliate of either on the date that the amount determined under the preceding sentence is paid shall receive a percentage, that is not less than nor greater than the percentage reflected in the individual Affected Employee’s “Target Bonus Range,” of such Affected Employee’s “Annual Salary” as reflected in Section 5.5(g) of the CCE Disclosure Letter (as it may be amended pursuant to Section 5.5(g)), multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of completed calendar months in 2006 occurring on or before the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is twelve (12). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.5(j), no payments for the 2006 Plan Year under the Annual Incentive Plan shall be made to the extent that they are not accrued for the Annual Incentive Plan on the Closing Balance Sheet.

                                (k) Until the Closing Date, CCE shall provide ETP an opportunity to particpate with TPC as a participating employer in discussions regarding the Enron VEBA Motion, including the allocation of assets and liabilities to TPC thereunder, and in settlement negotiations, if any, relating to any proceeding in another court of compentent jurisdiction relating to the partition and distribution of assets and liabilitites under the Enron VEBA.

Section 5.6Tax Covenants.

(a)Tax Return Filings, Refunds, and Credits.

(i)CCE shall timely prepare and file (or cause such preparation and filing) with the appropriate Tax authorities all Tax Returns (including any Consolidated Income Tax Returns) due on or before the 30th day following the Closing Date required to be filed by or on behalf of TPC (and make all elections with respect to such Tax Returns) for Tax periods that end on or before the Closing Date, and CCE may timely prepare and file (or cause such preparation and filing) with the appropriate Tax authorities all other Tax Returns (including any Consolidated Income Tax Returns) required to be filed by or on behalf of TPC (and make all elections with respect to such Tax Returns) for Tax periods that end on or before the Closing Date (all such returns required to be prepared and filed or actually prepared and filed by CCE, the “CCE Returns”).

(ii)ETP shall timely prepare and file (or cause such preparation and filing) with the appropriate Tax authorities all Tax Returns (the “Straddle Period Returns”) required to be filed by or on behalf of TPC (and make all elections with respect to such Tax Returns) for all Tax periods ending after the Closing Date that include the Closing Date (the “Straddle Period”), and ETP shall timely prepare and file (or cause such preparation and filing) with the appropriate Tax authorities all Tax Returns required to be filed by or on behalf of TPC (and make all elections with respect to such Tax Returns) for Tax periods that end on or before the Closing Date, other than CCE Returns (all such returns required to be prepared and filed by ETP, the “ETP Returns”). All ETP Returns shall be prepared in accordance with past practice to the extent consistent with applicable law and the operations of TPC. ETP shall provide CCE with copies of any ETP Returns at least forty-five (45) days prior to the due date thereof (giving effect to any extensions thereto), accompanied by a statement (the “Straddle

35

Statement”) setting forth and calculating in reasonable detail the Pre-Closing Taxes as defined below. If CCE agrees with the ETP Return and Straddle Statement, the amount of Pre-Closing Taxes shall be as shown thereon. If, within fifteen (15) days of the receipt of the ETP Return and Straddle Statement, CCE notifies ETP that it disputes the manner of preparation of the ETP Return or the amount calculated in the Straddle Statement, and provides ETP its proposed form of ETP Return, a statement setting forth and calculating in reasonable detail the Pre-Closing Taxes, and a written or oral explanation of the reasons for its adjustment, then ETP and CCE shall attempt to resolve their disagreement within the five (5) days following CCE’s notification or ETP of such disagreement. If ETP and CCE are unable to resolve their disagreement, the dispute shall be submitted to a mutually agreed upon nationally recognized independent accounting firm, whose expense shall be borne equally by ETP and CCE, for resolution within twenty (20) days of such submission. The decision of such accounting firm with respect to such dispute shall be binding upon ETP and CCE.

(iii)From and after the Closing Date, ETP and its Affiliates (including TPC) will not file any amended Tax Return, carryback claim or other adjustment request by or on behalf of TPC for any Tax period that includes or ends on or before the Closing Date unless CCE consents in writing.

(iv)For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Taxes of TPC that are payable with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of any such Taxes that constitutes “Pre-Closing Taxes” shall be the excess of (A) (i) in the case of Taxes that are either (x) based upon or related to income or receipts or (y) imposed in connection with any sale, transfer or assignment or any deemed sale, transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible) be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the Tax period ended at the close of business on the Closing Date and (ii) in the case of Taxes (other than those described in clause (i)) imposed on a periodic basis with respect to the business or assets of TPC, be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding Tax period) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period over (B) any prepayment or advances of Taxes or any payments of estimated Taxes with respect to the Straddle Period. For purposes of clause (i) of the preceding sentence, any exemption, deduction, credit or other item that is calculated on an annual basis shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date on a pro rata basis determined by multiplying the total amount of such item allocated to the Straddle Period by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. In the case of any Tax based upon or measured by capital (including net worth or long-term debt) or intangibles, any amount thereof required to be allocated under this Section 5.6(a)(iv) shall be computed by reference to the level of such items at the close of business on the Closing Date. The parties hereto will, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, elect with the relevant Tax authority to treat a portion of any Straddle Period as a short taxable period ending as of

36

the close of business on the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, “Post-Closing Taxes” shall include any Taxes of TPC that are payable with respect to a Straddle Period, except for the portion of any such Taxes that constitutes Pre-Closing Taxes. For purposes of this Agreement, the Texas corporate franchise tax determined based on the income or capital of any entity for the year during which the Closing Date occurs shall be considered to be a Tax due with respect to the Straddle Period.

(v)CCE and ETP shall reasonably cooperate in preparing and filing all Tax Returns required to be filed by or on behalf of TPC, including maintaining and making available to each other all records reasonably necessary in connection with Taxes of TPC and in resolving all disputes and audits with respect to all Tax periods relating to Taxes of TPC.

(vi)For a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date, CCE and its representatives shall have reasonable access to the books and records (including the right to make extracts thereof) of TPC to the extent that such books and records relate to Taxes and to the extent that such access may reasonably be required by CCE in connection with matters relating to or affected by the operation of TPC prior to the Closing Date. Such access shall be afforded by ETP upon receipt of reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours. If ETP shall desire to dispose of any of such books and records prior to the expiration of such six-year period, ETP shall, prior to such disposition, give CCE a reasonable opportunity, at CCE’s expense, to segregate and remove such books and records as CCE may select.

(vii)If a Tax Indemnified Party receives a refund or credit or other reimbursement with respect to Taxes for which it was indemnified under this Agreement, the Tax Indemnified Party shall pay over such refund or credit or other reimbursement to the Tax Indemnifying Party.

(viii)ETP shall not, and shall cause TPC to not, make, amend or revoke any Tax election if such action would adversely affect any of CCE or its Affiliates with respect to any Tax period ending on or before the Closing Date or for the Pre-Closing Period or any Tax refund with respect thereto unless ETP and its Affiliates indemnify and make CCE and its Affiliates whole for any detriment or cost incurred (or to be incurred) by them as a result of such action.

(ix)For purposes of this Agreement a “Consolidated Income Tax Return” is any income Tax Return filed with respect to any consolidated, combined, affiliated or unified group provided for under Section 1501 of the Code and the Treasury regulations under Section 1502 of the Code, or any comparable provisions of state or local law, other than any income Tax Return that includes only TPC.

(b)Indemnity for Taxes.

(i)CCE hereby agrees to indemnify ETP and its affiliates against and hold them harmless from and against all liability for (A) all Taxes that are attributable to CCE or any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary Tax group of

37

which TPC (or any direct or indirect predecessor(s) of TPC) was a member at any time on or prior to the Closing Date and not after the Closing Date that is imposed under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax law), except to the extent reflected on the TPC Six Month Interim Financial Statements, (B) any Taxes of TPC incurred as a transferee or a successor relating to any full or partial Tax period ending on or before the Closing Date, except to the extent reflected on the TPC Six Month Interim Financial Statements, (C) CCE’s portion of Transfer Taxes pursuant to Section 5.6(f), and (D) any Damages arising out of, resulting from, or incurred in connection with any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.16; provided, however, that the determination of whether such a breach or inaccuracy of Section 3.16(c), (d), or (e) occurred will be made without the Material Adverse Effect qualifications contained therein.

(ii)ETP hereby agrees to indemnify CCE and its Affiliates against and hold them harmless from all liability for (A) all Taxes of TPC with respect to all Tax periods beginning after the Closing Date, (B) Post-Closing Taxes with respect to any Straddle Period, (C) ETP’s portion of Transfer Taxes pursuant to Section 5.6(f), (D) all Taxes imposed on TPC with respect to Tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date, and (E) Pre-Closing Taxes with respect to any Straddle Period.

(iii)The obligation of CCE to indemnify and hold harmless ETP, on the one hand, and the obligations of ETP to indemnify and hold harmless CCE, on the other hand, pursuant to this Section 5.6, shall terminate upon the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations with respect to the Tax Liabilities in question (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof) or if a Claim is brought with respect thereto, until such time as such Claim is resolved.

(c)Certain Payments. ETP and CCE agree to treat (and cause their Affiliates to treat) any payment by CCE under Section 5.6(b) as an adjustment to the property distributed by CCE to ETP in redemption of the 50% CCE Interest for all Tax purposes.

(d)Contests.

(i)After the Closing Date, CCE and ETP each shall notify the other party in writing within ten (10) days of the commencement of any Tax audit or administrative or judicial proceeding affecting the Taxes of TPC that, if determined adversely to the taxpayer (the “Tax Indemnified Party”) or after the lapse of time would be grounds for indemnification under this Section 5.6 by the other party (the “Tax Indemnifying Party” and a “Tax Claim”). Such notice shall contain factual information describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall include copies of any notice or other document received from any Tax authority in respect of any such asserted Tax liability. Failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided in this Section 5.6 except to the extent the Tax Indemnifying Party shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that the Tax Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any expenses incurred during the period in which the Tax Indemnified Party failed to give such notice). Thereafter, the Tax Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Tax Indemnifying Party, as promptly as possible but in no event later than ten (10)

38

days after the Tax Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all relevant notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Tax Indemnified Party.

(ii)In the case of an audit or administrative or judicial proceeding involving any asserted liability for Taxes relating to any Taxable years or periods ending on or before the Closing Date, CCE shall have the right, at its expense, to control the conduct of such audit or proceeding; provided, however, that if CCE does not timely take control of such audit or proceeding, ETP may, at its expense, control the conduct of the audit or proceeding. In the case of an audit or administrative or judicial proceeding involving any asserted liability for Taxes relating to any Straddle Period, ETP shall have the right, at its expense, to control the conduct of such audit or proceeding; provided, however, that (A) ETP shall keep CCE reasonably informed with respect to the status of such audit or proceeding and provide CCE with copies of all written correspondence with respect to such audit or proceeding in a timely manner and (B) if such audit or proceeding would be reasonably expected to result in a material increase in Tax liability of TPC for which CCE would be liable under this Section 5.6, CCE may participate in the conduct of such audit or proceeding at its own expense.

(iii)In the case of an audit or administrative or judicial proceeding involving any asserted liability for Taxes relating to any Taxable years or periods beginning after the Closing Date, ETP shall have the right, at its expense, to control the conduct of such audit or proceeding.

(iv)ETP and CCE shall reasonably cooperate in connection with any Tax Claim, and such cooperation shall include the provision to the Tax Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Tax Claim and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(e)Transfer and Similar Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, all sales, use, transfer, gains, stamp, duties, recording and similar Taxes, but not including any Federal or state income taxes (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne equally by ETP and CCE, and CCE shall accurately file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to Transfer Taxes and timely pay all such Transfer Taxes. If required by Applicable Law, ETP will join in the execution of any such Return. CCE shall provide copies of any Tax Returns with respect to Transfer Taxes to ETP no later than five (5) days after the due dates of such Tax Returns.

(f)Termination of Tax Sharing Agreements. On or prior to the Closing Date, CCE shall cause all Tax sharing agreements between CCE or any of its Affiliates (as determined immediately after the Closing Date) on the one hand, and TPC on the other hand, to be terminated, and all obligations thereunder shall be settled, and no additional payments shall be made under any provisions thereof after the Closing Date.

Section 5.7Control of Administrative and Regulatory Proceedings. CCE and ETP agree and acknowledge that, up to the Closing Date, CCE shall be entitled to control, defend and

39

otherwise conduct any administrative or regulatory proceeding involving TPC. CCE will use commercially reasonable efforts to, and will cause TPC to, conduct any administrative or regulatory proceeding in a manner that is intended to maximize the value of TPC on and after the Closing Date. The Parties agree and acknowledge that, prior to the Closing Date, ETP shall be entitled to participate at its expense in any administrative or regulatory proceeding, meeting, or settlement conference, in administrative or regulatory proceedings involving or affecting TPC. The Parties agree and acknowledge that, after the Closing Date, ETP will assume control of any administrative or regulatory proceeding involving or affecting TPC subject to the terms of the TPC Transition Services Agreement.

Section 5.8Maintenance of Insurance Policies.

(a)CCE and ETP agree that to the extent the Insurance Policies provide coverage, CCE will process the Casualty Insurance Claims relating to the business of TPC (including reported claims and including incurred but not reported claims) and that such Casualty Insurance Claims shall remain with TPC following the Closing. For purposes hereof, “Casualty Insurance Claims” shall mean workers’ compensation, auto liability, general liability and products liability claims and claims for damages caused to the facilities of TPC generally insured under all risk, real property, boiler and mechanical breakdown insurance coverage all with dates of occurrence prior to the date of Closing. The Casualty Insurance Claims are subject to the provisions of the Insurance Policies with insurance carriers and contractual arrangements with insurance adjusters maintained by CCE or its Affiliates prior to the Closing. With respect to the Casualty Insurance Claims where coverage is available under the Insurance Policies, the following procedures shall apply: (i) CCE or its Affiliates shall continue to administer, adjust, settle and pay, on behalf of TPC, all Casualty Insurance Claims; provided, however, that CCE will obtain the consent of ETP prior to adjusting, settling or paying any Casualty Insurance Claim of an amount greater than $100,000 and provided further, that CCE shall permit ETP to join CCE in any settlement negotiations with claimants, insurers, or insurance adjusters and (ii) CCE shall invoice TPC at the end of each month for Casualty Insurance Claims paid on behalf of TPC. ETP shall cause TPC to pay the invoice within thirty (30) days of its date. In the event that TPC does not pay CCE within thirty (30) days of such invoice, interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum shall accrue on the amount of such invoice. Casualty Insurance Claims to be paid by CCE hereunder shall include all costs necessary to settle claims including compensatory, medical, legal and other allocated expenses, net of insurance proceeds. In the event that any Casualty Insurance Claims exceeds a deductible or self-insured retention under the Insurance Policies, CCE shall be entitled to the benefit of any insurance proceeds that may be available to discharge any portion of such Casualty Insurance Claim.

(b)After the Closing, ETP shall be responsible for, and neither CCE nor any of its Affiliates shall have any responsibility for, the payment of any deductible amounts or underlying limits attributable to the Insurance Policies for Casualty Insurance Claims relating to TPC. ETP acknowledges that certain of the Insurance Policies may require CCE or any of its Affiliates to provide an indemnity to the insurance carrier for deductible amounts and to provide collateral to secure such indemnity obligations. ETP hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless CCE or any of its Affiliates (as applicable) for any and all of the costs of maintaining such collateral and for any charges made against such collateral or indemnification payments in connection with claims arising or alleged to arise from the operations of TPC required to be paid

40

by CCE of any of its Affiliates (as applicable) under or with respect to such Insurance Policies from and after the Closing Date.

(c)Other than as set forth in Section 3.21 hereof, CCE makes no representation or warranty with respect to the applicability, validity or adequacy of any Insurance Policies, and CCE shall not be responsible to ETP or any of its Affiliates for the failure of any insurer to pay under any such Insurance Policy.

(d)Nothing in this Agreement is intended to provide or shall be construed as providing a benefit or release to any insurer or claims service organization of any obligation under any Insurance Policies. CCE and ETP confirm that the sole intention of this Section 5.8 is to divide and allocate the benefits and obligations under the Insurance Policies between them as of the Closing Date and not to affect, enhance or diminish the rights and obligations of any insurer or claims service organization thereunder. Nothing herein shall be construed as creating or permitting any insurer or claims service organization the right of subrogation against CCE or ETP or any of their Affiliates in respect of payments made by one to the other under any Insurance Policy.

(e)If ETP requests a copy of an Insurance Policy relating to a pending or threatened Casualty Insurance Claim, CCE shall provide a copy of all relevant insurance policies which insure such Casualty Insurance Claims within five (5) Business Days, provided, however, that if CCE cannot provide such policy within five (5) Business Days after exercising commercially reasonable efforts to locate such policy, CCE shall continue to exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to provide such policy to ETP as soon as possible thereafter.

(f)Except to the extent specified in this Section 5.8, TPC shall not participate in any insurance policy or program of CCE or any of its Affiliates following the Closing.

Section 5.9Preservation of Records. ETP agrees that it shall, at its own expense, preserve and keep the records held by it relating to the business of TPC that could reasonably be required after the Closing by CCE for as long as may be required for such categories of records by the time periods required by Applicable Law and in accordance with CCE’s document retention practices. In addition, ETP shall make such records available to CCE as may reasonably be required by CCE in connection with, among other things, any insurance claim, legal proceeding or governmental investigation relating to the respective businesses of CCE and its Affiliates, including TPC.

Section 5.10Public Statements. Neither party shall, nor shall permit its Affiliates to, issue or cause the publication of any press release or other announcement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the consent of the other party hereto, unless such disclosure is required by Applicable Law, or by obligations pursuant to any agreement with any national securities exchange; provided, however, that the party intending to make such release shall give the other parties prior notice and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with such Applicable Law or obligation to consult with the other parties with respect to the text thereof.

Section 5.11Assignment of Trademarks.

41

(a)Effective upon the Closing Date, CCE shall assign or cause to be assigned to TPC, the trademarks, service marks, and trade names listed on Section 5.11 of the CCE Disclosure Letter, together with all slogans, logotypes, designs and trade dress associated therewith, including all applications and registrations therefor, which are, in each case, in existence on the Closing Date and currently being used in the conduct of the business of TPC (collectively, the “TPC Marks”).

(b)CCE shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist ETP in protecting and maintaining the rights of TPC in connection with use of the TPC Marks by TPC, including preparation and execution of documents necessary or appropriate in the ordinary course to register TPC Marks and/or record this Agreement. As between the parties, ETP shall have the sole right to, and in its sole discretion may, commence, prosecute or defend, and control any action concerning the TPC Marks.

Section 5.12Commercially Reasonable Efforts. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto will use, and will cause their respective Affiliates to use, all commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all action, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable consistent with Applicable Law to consummate and make effective in the most expeditious manner practicable the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.13Financial Statements; Financial Records of CCE.

If Closing does not occur on or prior to December 31, 2006, then CCE (w) no later than March 1, 2007, shall prepare and deliver to ETP the CCE 2006 Financial Statements and the Citrus 2006 Financial Statements, and (x) no later than March 1, 2007, cause TPC to prepare and deliver to ETP the TPC 2006 Financial Statements. CCE shall cause the financial statements referred to in clauses (w) and (x) of the preceding sentence to present fairly in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, the financial condition and results of operation of CCE, Citrus and TPC, respectively, as of and for the periods set forth therein. No later than (y) November 1, 2006, CCE shall prepare and deliver to ETP the CCE Stub Period Income Statements and (z) November 1, 2006, cause TPC and Citrus to prepare and deliver to ETP the TPC Stub Period Financial Statements and the Citrus Stub Period Financial Statements, respectively. CCE shall cause the financial statements for three month periods referred to in

(a)mutual written consent of the parties;

47

(b)by either ETP or CCE, upon written notice to the other parties, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before February 1, 2007 (the “Initial Termination Date”); provided, however, that if on the Initial Termination Date the conditions to closing set forth in Section 6.1(a) and Section 6.1(b) shall not have been fulfilled but are reasonably capable of being fulfilled no later than March 1, 2007, then, if a written notice requesting an extension of the termination date has been delivered by either ETP to CCE, or by CCE to ETP, at any time during the ten business day period ending on the Initial Termination Date, the termination date shall be extended to March 1, 2007;

(c)by either ETP or CCE upon written notice to the other party, if any of the mutual conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 6.1 shall have become incapable of fulfillment by February 1, 2007 or March 1, 2007, as the case may be, and shall not have been waived in writing by the other party;

(d)by ETP, so long as ETP is not then in breach of its obligations under this Agreement, upon a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of CCE set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of CCE shall have been or become untrue, in each case such that the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 would not be satisfied; provided, however, that ETP may not terminate this Agreement if such breach or untruth is capable of being cured by CCE by not later than February 1, 2007 or March 1, 2007, as the case may be, through the exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts, so long as CCE continues to exercise such commercially reasonable efforts (until February 1, 2007 or March 1, 2007, as the case may be);

(e)by CCE, so long as CCE is not then in breach of its obligations under this Agreement, upon a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of ETP set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of ETP shall have been or become untrue, in each case such that the conditions set forth in Section 6.3 would not be satisfied; provided, however, that CCE may not terminate this Agreement if such breach or untruth is capable of being cured by ETP by not later than February 1, 2007 or March 1, 2007, as the case may be, through the exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts, so long as ETP continues to exercise such commercially reasonable efforts (until February 1, 2007 or March 1, 2007, as the case may be); and

(f)by either CCE or ETP if any Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action, which permanently restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the CCE Acquisition Agreement and which order, decree, ruling or other action is not subject to appeal; unless failure to consummate closing because of such action by the Governmental Authority is due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate to have fulfilled its obligations under Section 5.3 and Section 5.4.

The right of any party hereto to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any party hereto, any Person controlling any such party or any of their respective officers, directors, representatives or agents, whether prior to or after the execution of this Agreement.

48

ARTICLE VIII

Section 8.1Survival.

(a)The representations and warranties provided for in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect until the twelve-month (12) anniversary of this Agreement; provided however, that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 (Authority Relative to this Agreement), Section 3.3 (TPC Interests), Section 3.19 (Brokerage and Finders’ Fees), Section 4.2 (Authority Relative to this Agreement), Section 4.3 (50% CCE Interests) and Section 4.8 (Brokerage and Finders’ Fees) shall survive indefinitely, the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.16 (Tax Matters) shall survive for a period equal to the applicable statute of limitations for each Tax and taxable year, the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.15 (Environmental Matters) shall survive until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date, and the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.12 (Employee Matters) shall survive for a period equal to the applicable statutes of limitations with respect to the matters described therein.

(b)No Claim for damages or other relief of any kind (including a Claim for indemnification under Section 8.2 hereof) arising against an Indemnified Party out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, whether sounding in contract, tort, breach of warranty, securities law, other statutory cause of action, deceptive trade practice, strict liability, product liability or other cause of action or theory of liability (except, in all cases Claims alleging fraud, intentional misrepresentation or intentional misconduct), may be brought unless suit thereon is filed, or a written notice describing the nature of that Claim, the theory of liability, the nature of the relief sought and the material factual assertions upon which the Claim is based is given to the other party, before the termination of the Survival Period.

49

Claim, the theory of liability, the nature of the relief sought and the material factual assertions upon which the Claim is based is given pursuant to this Agreement prior to the end of the Survival Period, until the matter is finally resolved and any related Damages are paid.

Section 8.2Indemnification.

(a)Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII, subsequent to the Closing, CCE shall indemnify, defend, save and hold harmless, ETP, TPC, their respective successors and permitted assigns, and their shareholders, members, partners (general and limited), officers, directors, managers, trustees, incorporators, employees, agents, attorneys, consultants and representatives, and each of their heirs, executors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “ETP Indemnified Parties”), against and in respect of any and all Damages to the extent incurred by the ETP Indemnified Party arising out of, resulting from or incurred in connection with:

(i)any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of CCE contained in this Agreement;

(ii)any breach by CCE of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement; and

(iii)any Third Party Claim against ETP arising out of or resulting from ETP’s indirect ownership interests in CrossCountry Citrus, LLC, Citrus Corp. or any Subsidiaries of Citrus Corp. other than for actions authorized, or intentional acts of omission, by ETP in its capacity as the Class B Member or by any Class B Executive Committee Member under, and as defined in, the CCE LLC Agreement.

(b)Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII, subsequent to the Closing, ETP shall indemnify, defend, save and hold harmless, CCE and its Affiliates, their respective successors and permitted assigns, and their shareholders, members, partners (general and limited), officers, directors, managers, trustees, incorporators, employees, agents, attorneys, consultants and representatives, and each of their heirs, executors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “CCE Indemnified Parties”) against and in respect of any and all Damages to the extent incurred by the CCE Indemnified Party arising out of, resulting from or incurred in connection with:

(i)any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of ETP contained in this Agreement;

(ii)any breach by ETP of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement; and

(iii)any liability or obligation of TPC, whether arising before or after Closing, to the extent such liability or obligation (x) cannot be properly asserted against CCE under Section 8.2(a) or otherwise by ETP, except to the extent such liability or obligation cannot be properly asserted against CCE because of limitations under Section 8.2(d), and (y) do not arise as a result of any other obligation of CCE to any ETP Indemnified Party arising under this Agreement.

50

(c)Any Person providing indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.2 is referred to herein as an “Indemnifying Party,” and any Person entitled to be indemnified pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.2 is referred to herein as an “Indemnified Party.”

(d)CCE’s indemnification obligations contained in Section 8.2(a)(i) shall not apply to any Claim for Damages until the aggregate of all such Damages total $15,000,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), in which event CCE’s indemnity obligation contained in Section 8.2(a)(i) shall apply to all Claims for Damages in excess of the Threshold Amount, subject to a maximum liability to all Indemnified Parties, in the aggregate, of $75,000,000 (the “Cap Amount”) for all Claims under Section 8.2(a)(i) in the aggregate; provided, however, that the limitations set forth in this sentence shall not apply with respect to CCE’s indemnification obligations related to breaches of the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.2 (Authority Relative to this Agreement) or Section 3.3 (TPC Interests); and provided further that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, claims for indemnification relating to the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.12(g) will not be subject to the Threshold Amount or the Cap Amount and shall be independently determined without regard to such limitations. Damages relating to any single breach or series of related breaches of CCE’s representations and warranties shall not constitute Damages, and therefore shall not be applied towards the Threshold Amount or be indemnifiable hereunder, unless such Damages relating to any single breach or series of related breaches exceed $300,000 (the “Minimum Claim Amount”).

(e)ETP’s indemnification obligations contained in Section 8.2(b)(i) shall not apply to any Claim for Damages until the aggregate of all such Damages equals the Threshold Amount, in which event ETP’s indemnification obligation contained in Section 8.2(b)(i) shall apply to all Claims for Damages in excess of the Threshold Amount, subject to a maximum liability to all Indemnified Parties, in the aggregate, of the Cap Amount for all Claims under Section 8.2(b)(i) in the aggregate; provided, however, that the limitations set forth in this sentence shall not apply with respect to ETP’s indemnification obligations related to breaches of the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.2 (Authority Relative to this Agreement) or Section 4.3 (50% CCE Interests). Damages relating to any single breach or series of related breaches of ETP’s representations and warranties shall not constitute Damages, and therefore shall not be applied towards the Threshold Amount or be indemnifiable hereunder, unless such Damages relating to any single breach or series of related breaches exceeds the Minimum Claim Amount.

(f)The indemnification obligations of each party hereto under this Section 8.2 shall inure to the benefit of the ETP Indemnified Parties and CCE Indemnified Parties, and such ETP Indemnified Parties and CCE Indemnified Parties will be obligated to keep and perform the obligations imposed on an Indemnified Party by this Section 8.2, on the same terms as are applicable to such other party.

(g)In all cases in which a Person is entitled to be indemnified in accordance with this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall be under a duty to take all commercially reasonable measures to mitigate all losses. Without limiting the foregoing, each Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to collect any amount available under

51

insurance coverage, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible, for any Damages for which an indemnity claim is being made; provided, however, that the reasonable costs incurred by the Indemnified Party in taking such measures shall be included in the amount of any Claim.

(h)An Indemnified Party shall not be entitled under this Agreement to multiple recovery for the same losses. If an Indemnified Party receives any amount under applicable insurance policies, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible for any Damages, subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made or expense incurred by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification payment up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party, net of any expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount.

(i)All amounts paid by CCE or ETP, as the case may be, under this Article VIII shall be treated as adjustments to the property distributed by CCE to ETP in redemption of the 50% CCE Interest for all Tax purposes.

(j)Notwithstanding any other provision in the Agreement to the contrary, this Section 8.2 shall not apply to any Claim of indemnification with respect to Tax matters. Claims for indemnification with respect to Tax matters shall be governed by Section 5.6.

(k)For purposes of this Article VIII only, the existence of a breach of a representation or warranty in this Agreement and the calculation of Damages arising out of a breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement shall be determined without giving effect to any exception or qualification of such representation or warranty as to the materiality of the breach thereof or the Material Adverse Effect on any Person of such breach.

Except as provided in Section 5.6 hereof, the provisions of this Article VIII shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of any Indemnified Party for Damages arising out of, resulting from or incurred in connection with any inaccuracy in any representation or the breach of any warranty made by ETP, on the one hand, or CCE, on the other hand, in this Agreement; provided, however, that this exclusive remedy for Damages does not preclude a party from bringing an Action for specific performance or other equitable remedy to require a party to perform its obligations under this Agreement; provided further, that this exclusive remedy for Damages does not preclude a party from bringing an Action alleging fraud, intentional misrepresentation or intentional misconduct without reference to the provisions of this Article VIII.

Section 8.3Calculation of Damages. The Damages suffered by any Indemnified Party shall be calculated after giving effect to the actual receipt of any available insurance proceeds paid directly to the Indemnified Party. In computing the amount of any insurance proceeds, such insurance proceeds shall be reduced by a reasonable estimate of the present value of future premium increases attributable to the payment of such Claim.

Section 8.4Procedures for Third-Party Claims.

(a)In the case of any Claim for indemnification arising from a Claim of a third party against an Indemnified Party arising under paragraph 8.2(a) or 8.2(b) as the case may

52

be (a “Third-Party Claim”), an Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any Claim or demand of which such Indemnified Party has knowledge, and as to which it may request indemnification hereunder, specifying (to the extent known) the amount of such Claim and any relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto; provided, however, that any failure to give such prompt notice or to provide any such facts and circumstances will not waive any rights of the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the rights of the Indemnifying Party are actually materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right (and, if it elects to exercise such right, to do so by written notice within thirty (30) days after receiving notice from the Indemnified Party) to defend and to direct the defense against any such Third-Party Claim, in its name or in the name of the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, unless (i) the Indemnifying Party shall not have taken any action to defend such Third-Party Claim within such thirty (30) day period, or (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of the defense of such Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (other than the last sentence of this Section 8.4(a)), the Indemnified Party, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party (which shall include only reasonable out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred), shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and keep the Indemnifying Party fully informed in the defense of such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel employed at its own expense; provided, however, that in the case of any Third-Party Claim (A) described in clause (ii) above, or (B) as to which the Indemnifying Party shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim within such thirty-day (30-day) period, or (C) that involves assertion of criminal liability on the Indemnified Party, or (D) seeks to force the Indemnified Party to take (or prevent the Indemnified Party from taking) any action, then in each such case the Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to conduct and control the defense thereof for the account of, and at the risk of, the Indemnifying Party, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of such Indemnified Party’s counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. Except as provided in the last sentence of Section 8.4(b), the Indemnifying Party shall have no indemnification obligations with respect to any Third-Party Claim which shall be settled by the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(b)The Indemnifying Party, if it has assumed the defense of any Third Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, shall not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) unless (i) such settlement or judgment relates solely to monetary damages, and (ii) prior to consenting to such settlement or such entry of judgment, the Indemnifying Party delivers to the Indemnified Party a writing (in form reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party) which unconditionally provides that, subject to the provisions of Section 8.2(d) or Section 8.2(e), as appropriate, relating to the Minimum Claim Amount, the Threshold Amount and the Cap Amount, the Damages represented thereby are the responsibility of the Indemnifying Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and that, subject to the provisions of the Threshold Amount, the Indemnifying Party shall pay all Damages associated therewith in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

With the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, the Indemnified Party shall have the sole and exclusive right to settle any Third-Party Claim, on such terms and conditions as it deems reasonably appropriate, to the extent such Third-Party Claim involves equitable or other nonmonetary relief against the Indemnified Party or involves a reasonable likelihood of an imposition of criminal liability on the Indemnified Party, and shall have the right to settle any Third-Party Claim involving money damages for which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense pursuant to this Section 8.4.

The notification shall be subsequently supplemented within a reasonable time as additional information regarding the Claim or the nature or extent of Damages resulting therefrom becomes available to the Indemnified Party. Any failure to give such prompt notice or supplement thereto or to provide any such facts and circumstances will not waive any rights of the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the rights of the Indemnifying Party are actually materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall negotiate in good faith for a thirty-day (30-day) period regarding the resolution of any disputed Claims for Damages. Promptly following the final determination of the amount of any Damages claimed by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party, subject to the limitations of the Minimum Claim Amount, Threshold Amount and the Cap Amount, shall pay such Damages to the Indemnified Party by wire transfer or check made payable to the order of the Indemnified Party.

CONTRIBUTIONS

ARTICLE VI.

DISTRIBUTIONS

6.1Cash Flow. Subject to Sections 6.2, 6.3 and 11.2, Cash Flow shall be distributed at such times as shall be determined by the affirmative vote of the Executive Committee to each Class A Member and Class B Member in proportion to their respective Aggregate Percentage Interests. Distributions to each Member shall be sent via wire transfer to such account identified by such respective Member in writing to the Managing Member from time to time.

19

6.2Amounts Withheld for Taxes. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Company is required to pay, with respect to or on behalf of any Member or any other Person, any amount required to be withheld by the Company in respect of taxes based on or measured by income under federal, state, or local law or any estimated tax or similar amount, such Member or other Person shall, upon demand of the Company, promptly reimburse the Company for such amount. To the extent that such Member or other Person has not so reimbursed the Company, any and all amounts so paid by the Company may be withheld from and offset against distributions to such Member or other Person and shall be considered for all purposes of this Agreement to have been distributed to such Member or other Person pursuant to this Article VI.

6.3Minimum Distribution for Taxes. To the extent permitted by applicable Credit Facilities and other obligations of the Company, the Company shall distribute in accordance with Section 6.1, with respect to each Fiscal Year and during the period commencing on the first day of such Fiscal Year and ending on the 15th day of the third month following the end of such Fiscal Year, an amount equal to the lesser of (a) (i) the Company's Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year less (ii) the aggregate amount of all quarterly distributions of Cash Flow previously made during such Fiscal Year and (b) 40% (or such other percentage as may be determined by the Executive Committee) of the taxable income of the Company for such Fiscal Year. For purposes of this Section 6.3, the taxable income of the Company for each Fiscal Year shall be computed as though the Company were a corporation which did not file consolidated Federal income tax returns, as though such corporation did not make any of the elections specified in Code Section 703(b), as though Code Section 243(a)(1) and Code Section 243(c) (if applicable), rather than Code Section 243(a)(3), applied to "qualifying dividends" (as defined in Code Section 243(b)(1)), without regard to any carryover or carryback of any net operating loss, capital loss, investment credit, unused foreign tax, excess charitable contribution, passive loss or credit, or other item from any other year, and without regard to the provisions of Code Section 703(a).

ARTICLE VII.

ALLOCATIONS

7.1Book Allocations. Sections 7.1(a) and (b) set forth the general rules for book allocations to the Members. Section 7.1(c) sets forth various special rules that supercede the general rules of Sections 7.1(a) and (b).

(a)Profit. Profits for each Fiscal Year shall be allocated to the Members in the following order of priority:

(i)first, each Class A Member and Class B Member shall be allocated Profits (in proportion to the aggregate Losses allocated to such Members under Section 7.1(b)(ii) for all Fiscal Years) until the aggregate allocations made to each Class A Member and Class B Member pursuant to this Section 7.1(a)(i) is equal to the aggregate Losses allocated to the Member pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(ii) for all Fiscal Years; and

(ii)thereafter, each Class A Member and each Class B Member shall be allocated Profits in proportion to its Aggregate Percentage Interests.

20

(b)Losses. Losses for each Fiscal Year shall be allocated to the Members in the following order of priority:

(i)first, to the Class A Members and Class B Members, if any, having positive balances in their Adjusted Capital Accounts, in proportion to and to the extent of, such positive balances; and

(ii)thereafter, to the Class A Members and Class B Members in proportion to their Aggregate Percentage Interests.

(c)Special Rules. Notwithstanding Sections 7.1(a) and (b), the following special allocation rules shall apply under the circumstances described:

(i)Limitation on Loss Allocations. The Losses allocated to any Member pursuant to Section 7.1(b) with respect to any Fiscal Year shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses that can be so allocated without causing such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of such Fiscal Year. All items of loss or deduction in excess of the limitation set forth in this Section 7.1(c)(i) shall be allocated first, to the Member who will not be subject to this limitation, and second, any remaining amount to the Members in the manner required by the Code and the Regulations. To the extent that items of loss and deduction are allocated pursuant to this Section 7.1(c)(i) to a Member, such Member shall be allocated a corresponding amount of income and gain as may be available in the earliest subsequent Fiscal Year to offset such allocation of loss and deduction.

(ii)Company Minimum Gain. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Company taxable period, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in proportion to and to the extent of, an amount equal to the portion of such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). This Section 7.1(c)(ii) is intended to comply with the charge back of items of income and gain requirement in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iii)Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Company taxable period, each Member with a share of Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in proportion to, and to the extent of, an amount equal to the portion of such Member’s share of the net decrease in the Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). This Section 7.1(c)(iii) is intended to comply with the charge back of items of income and gain requirement in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

21

(iv)Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4),(5) or (6), and such adjustment, allocation or distribution causes or increases an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for such Member, then before any other allocations are made under this Agreement or otherwise, such Member shall be allocated items of Company income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Company income, including gross income and gain) in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Member as quickly as possible.

(v)Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Members in the same ratios that Profit is allocated for the taxable year in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(1). If the Executive Committee determines in its good faith discretion that the Nonrecourse Deductions must be allocated in a different ratio to satisfy the safe harbor requirements of the Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the Executive Committee is authorized to revise the prescribed ratio to the numerically closest ratio that does satisfy such requirements.

(vi)Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated 100% to the Member that bears the economic risk of loss (as described in Regulations Section 1.704-2(b) with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)). If more than one Member bears the economic risk of loss with respect to a Member Nonrecourse Debt, such Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Members in accordance with the ratios in which they share such economic risk of loss.

(vii)Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections 7.1(c)(i) through 7.1(c)(vi) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2(b). Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 7.1(c) (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss, and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of other items and the Regulatory Allocations (including anticipated future Regulatory Allocations) to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

(viii)Change in Regulations. If the Regulations incorporating the Regulatory Allocations are hereafter changed or if new Regulations are hereafter adopted, and such changed or new Regulations, in the opinion of independent tax counsel for the Company, make it necessary to revise the Regulatory Allocations or provide further special allocation rules in order to avoid a significant risk that a material portion of any allocation set forth in this Article VII would not be respected for federal income tax purposes, the Executive Committee shall make such reasonable amendments to this

22

Agreement as, in the opinion of such counsel, are necessary or desirable, taking into account the interests of the Members as a whole and all other relevant factors, to avoid or reduce significantly such risk to the extent possible without materially changing the amounts allocable and distributable to any Member, pursuant to this Agreement.

(ix)Non-Recourse Liabilities. “Excess non-recourse liabilities” of the Company within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3) shall be allocated in the same ratio that Profit is allocated for the taxable year.

7.2Tax Allocations.

(a)In General. Allocations for tax purposes of items of income, gain, loss, deduction and basis therefor, shall be made in the same manner as allocations for book purposes set forth in Section 7.1. Allocations pursuant to this Section 7.2 are solely for purposes of federal, state and local income taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

(b)Special Rules.

(i)Elimination of Book/Tax Disparities. In determining a Member’s allocable share of Company taxable income, the Member’s allocable share of each item of Profit and Loss shall be properly adjusted to reflect the rules and principles of Code Section 704(c) and Regulations Section 1.704-3. This Section 7.2(b)(i) is intended to comply with the requirements of Code Section 704(c) and Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(d) and (f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Members in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement.

(ii)Allocation of Items Among Members. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.2(b)(i), each item of income, gain, loss and deduction and all other items governed by Code Section 702(a) shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to the allocation of Profits, Losses and other items to the Members hereunder, provided that any gain recognized from any disposition of a Company asset that is treated as ordinary income because it is attributable to the recapture of any depreciation or amortization shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with Regulations Section 1.1245-1(e), if applicable, or with any other applicable provision of the Regulations and, if no such provision is applicable, in the same ratio as the prior allocations of Profits and Losses and other items that included such depreciation or amortization, but not in excess of the gain otherwise allocable to each Member.

(c)Conformity of Reporting. The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Section 7.2 and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 7.2 in reporting their shares of Company profits, gains, income, losses, deductions, credits and other items for income tax purposes.

7.3Transferred Interests. If any Membership Interest (or portion thereof) is sold, assigned or transferred during any Fiscal Year, then Profit, Loss, each item thereof and all other

23

items realized by the Company during such Fiscal Year shall be divided and allocated between the Members by taking into account their varying interests during the Fiscal Year in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using any conventions permitted by law and selected by the Members.

7.4Section 754 Election. In the event of a Transfer of a Membership Interest permitted under this Agreement, the Company shall, at the request of the transferee Member, file an election under Section 754 of the Code to adjust the basis of the assets of the Company in accordance with the provisions of Section 743 of the Code. Any costs associated with such election (such as accounting fees) shall be borne by the transferee Member.

7.5Tax Matters Member.

(a)For purposes of Code Sections 6221 through 6223, the Managing Member from time to time shall also be, and is hereby designated as, the “tax matters partner” of the Company (the “Tax Matters Member”).

(b)The Tax Matters Member shall make an election under Code Section 6231(a)(i)(B)(ii) with the Company’s first tax return to be filed after the effective date of this Agreement to have Code Sections 6221 to 6234, inclusive, apply to the Company.

(c)The Tax Matters Member shall, within ten days (or such shorter period of time as is reasonably practicable) of the receipt of any notice from the Internal Revenue Service in any administrative proceeding at the Company level relating to the determination of any Company item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit, deliver a copy of such notice to each Member. The Tax Matters Member shall cooperate with any Member, and shall take such action as may be required to be taken by the Tax Matters Member, to cause such Member to become a “notice partner” within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(8) of the Code. The Tax Matters Member shall inform each Member of all significant matters that may come to its attention in its capacity as Tax Matters Member by giving written notice thereof within 10 business days (or such shorter period of time as is reasonably practicable) after becoming aware thereof and, within that time, shall forward to each other Member copies of all significant written communications it may receive in its capacity as Tax Matters Member.

(d)The Tax Matters Member shall not take any action that may be taken by a “tax matters partner” under Code Section 6221 through 6234 unless (i) it has first given the other Members written notice of the contemplated action at least ten business days prior to the applicable due date of such action and (ii) it has received the unanimous written consent of the other Members to such contemplated action; provided, however, that unless the Tax Matters Member is notified otherwise no later than two business days prior to any date by which the Tax Matters Member must act as set forth in any notice received from the Internal Revenue Service, the Code or the regulations promulgated thereunder, such other Members shall be deemed to have given their consent.

(e)At least 20 days prior to the due date for the filing of any federal income tax return of the Company, the Tax Matters Member shall provide a proposed draft of such return to the Members for their approval. If the Members approve such return, the return shall be filed as approved. Failure to provide the Tax Matters Member with written notice that the

24

Members do not approve such return within 10 days from the receipt thereof by the Members shall be deemed approval by the Members. In the event the Members do not approve such return, and the Members and Tax Matters Member are otherwise unable to resolve their differences with regard to such return, the matter shall be submitted to an independent, nationally recognized accounting firm, the decision of which shall be final. The cost of retaining such accounting firm with respect to resolving such dispute shall be borne by the Company. The Tax Matters Member shall provide a draft or final copy of any tax return to a Member upon written request by such Member.

(f)Without limiting and in addition to the foregoing, for tax proceedings, matters and claims in excess of $3 million, the Tax Matters Member shall not initiate any legal or administrative proceedings on behalf of the Company or a Company Subsidiary in respect of or relating to any tax proceedings or other tax matters, or agree to the settlement of any claims in respect of or relating to any tax proceedings or other tax matters, without first consulting with the Executive Committee a reasonable period of time prior to taking any such action.

ARTICLE VIII.

TRANSFER/ADMISSION MATTERS

8.1Transfer Restrictions. ETP, CCE and any other Person holding, directly or indirectly, a Class A Membership Interest or Class B Membership Interest may Transfer all or any portion of its Membership Interest only in accordance with the provisions of this Article VIII; provided, that ETP, CCE and any other Person holding, directly or indirectly, a Class A Membership Interest or Class B Membership Interest may Transfer all or any portion of its Membership Interest to an Affiliate with prior notice to the Executive Committee and upon satisfaction of the provisions of Section 8.3. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, no Class A Member may Transfer any Membership Interest to any person that is a Class A Prohibited Transferee and no Class B Member may Transfer any Membership Interest to any person that is a Class B Prohibited Transferee.

8.2Right of First Offer. If any Class A Member or Class B Member (a “Transferring Member”) desires to Transfer all or any portion of its Class A Membership Interest or Class B Membership Interest, as applicable (the “Specified Interest”), to any Third Party Purchaser, such Transferring Member shall first give notice thereof (the “Offer Notice”) to the other Class A Members and Class B Members (the “Non-Transferring Members”), specifying the price (the “Specified Price”) and other terms (the “Specified Terms”) at and on which such Transferring Member is willing to sell the Specified Interest. The delivery of the Offer Notice by the Transferring Member to the Non-Transferring Members shall constitute an offer by the Transferring Member to negotiate in good faith to sell to the Non-Transferring Members the Specified Interest at the Specified Price upon the Specified Terms. The Non-Transferring Members shall each have 30 Business Days (the “Acceptance Period”) from and including the date it receives the Offer Notice to accept such offer, which acceptance shall be in the form of a written notice (the “Acceptance Notice”) to the Transferring Member. Each Non-Transferring Member wishing to accept such offer (each, an “Accepting Member”) shall thereafter negotiate in good faith with the Transferring Member. If more than one Non-Transferring Member shall wish to purchase the Specified Interest, each such Non-Transferring Member shall be entitled to purchase a proportionate share of the Specified Interest on the basis of its Aggregate Percentage

25

Interest. If the Accepting Member(s) and the Transferring Member fail to execute a definitive purchase agreement within 30 Business Days following receipt by the Transferring Member of the applicable Acceptance Notice(s), or if the sale of the Specified Interest to the Non-Transferring Member(s) is not consummated within 60 days following such receipt of the Acceptance Notice, the offer set forth in this Section 8.2 shall then automatically expire, and such Transferring Member may Transfer the Specified Interest, subject to the other terms of this Agreement, for a price and on terms and conditions substantially no more favorable to the purchaser than those offered by the Transferring Member; provided, however, that if the Transferring Member shall fail to sell the Specified Interest or any portion thereof within 180 days from such expiration, the Specified Interest or such non-transferred portion of the Specified Interest shall again be subject to the right of first offer contained in this Section 8.2.

8.3Transfer Requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not recognize for any purpose any purported Transfer of all or any portion of a Member’s Membership Interest unless:

(a)the Company shall have been furnished with the documents effecting such Transfer executed and acknowledged by both transferor and transferee, together the written agreement of the transferee to become a party to and be bound by this Agreement, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Executive Committee;

(b)such Transfer shall have been made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations and all necessary governmental consents shall have been obtained and requirements satisfied, including without limitation, compliance with the Securities Act, and applicable state blue sky and securities laws, and such Transfer will not cause the Company to breach or violate any applicable law;

(c)such Transfer will not cause the Company to have more than 100 partners (within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)) or does not otherwise cause the Company to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code;

(d)such Transfer will not result in a termination of the Company for purposes of Section 708 of the Code ;

(e)all necessary instruments reflecting such admission shall have been filed in each jurisdiction in which such filing is necessary in order to qualify the Company to conduct business or to preserve the limited liability of the Members; and

(f)such Transfer will not result in the occurrence of an event of default or similar occurrence (whether immediately or with the giving of notice, the passage of time or both) under the terms of any of the Credit Facilities;

provided, however, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.3 shall not apply to the Transfers contemplated by the Redemption Agreement.

The Executive Committee may request an opinion of counsel (which counsel shall be chosen by the non-transferring Member but shall be reasonably satisfactory to the transferee Member) with

26

respect to any of the foregoing or any other matters that the Executive Committee reasonably deems appropriate in respect of any such Transfer. In addition, the Executive Committee, upon unanimous consent, may waive any of the foregoing provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Transferring Member need not comply with Section 8.3(d) if such Transferring Member indemnifies each other Member in a manner and amount reasonably satisfactory to each such other Member for any adverse tax effects that would result from such termination.

8.4Admission of a Member. A Person may be admitted as Class A Member or a Class B Member upon satisfaction of the relevant requirements of this Article VIII or with the unanimous written consent of the Class A Members and the Class B Members. Upon such admission, such Member shall be designated as either a Class A Member or a Class B Member, and the Managing Member shall amend Exhibit A appropriately to reflect the admission of such Person as a Member.

8.5Cooperation by Members. If any Member wishes to Transfer all or a portion of its Membership Interest in accordance with the provisions of this Article VIII, each other Member shall use its reasonable efforts to assist the Member seeking to make such Transfer as such Member may reasonably request.

ARTICLE IX.

BOOKS AND RECORDS; BANK ACCOUNTS

9.1Books and Records. The books and records of the Company shall, at the cost and expense of the Company, be kept or caused to be kept by the Managing Member at the principal place of business of the Company.

9.3Bank Accounts. All funds of the Company will be deposited in its name in an account or accounts maintained with such bank or banks selected by the Executive Committee. The funds of the Company will not be commingled with the funds of any other Person. Checks will be drawn upon the Company account or accounts only for the purposes of the Company and shall be signed by authorized representatives of the Company.

(a)Upon dissolution of the Company, no further business shall be conducted except for the taking of such action as shall be necessary for the winding up of the affairs of the Company and the distribution of assets pursuant to the provisions of this Section. So long as it shall then be a Member, CCE shall act as the Liquidating Trustee. If CCE shall not then be a Member or if it is unable to act as Liquidating Trustee, then the Members shall appoint another Liquidating Trustee. The Liquidating Trustee shall have full authority to wind up the affairs of the Company and to make distributions provided herein.

(b)Upon dissolution of the Company, the Liquidating Trustee shall either sell the assets of the Company at the best price available, or the Liquidating Trustee may distribute to the Members all or any portion of the Company’s assets in kind. If any assets are to be distributed in kind, the Liquidating Trustee shall ascertain the fair market value (by appraisal or other reasonable means) of such assets, and each Member’s Capital Account shall be charged or credited, as the case may be, as if such asset had been sold for cash at such fair market value and the Profit or Loss recognized thereby had been allocated to and among the Members in accordance with Article VII.

(c)All assets of the Company shall be applied and distributed in the following order:

28

(i)first, to the payment and discharge of all the Company’s debts and liabilities to creditors, including liabilities to Members who are creditors, to the extent otherwise permitted by law;

SOUTHERN UNION ANNOUNCES TRANSACTIONS

AFFECTING OWNERSHIP OF FLORIDA GAS AND TRANSWESTERN

HOUSTON, September 15, 2006 - Southern Union Company (NYSE:SUG) today announced a series of transactions designed to result in Southern Union owning a 50% interest in Florida Gas Transmission and eliminating its ownership interest in Transwestern Pipeline.  To effect these transactions, Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. (NYSE:ETP) has entered into an agreement to acquire the 50% Class B membership interest in CCE Holdings, LLC (CCEH) from GE Energy Financial Services and other investors.  CCEH was formed in 2004 to purchase CrossCountry Energy from Enron Corp. and its affiliates. 

Additionally, Energy Transfer and CCEH have entered into a Redemption Agreement whereby Energy Transfer’s 50% ownership interest will be redeemed in exchange for 100% of the equity interests in Transwestern Pipeline Company, LLC.  Upon closing of both transactions, CCEH will be 100% owned by wholly-owned subsidiaries of Southern Union, will own 50% of Citrus Corp., the holding company for Florida Gas Transmission, and will be responsible for approximately $455 million in indebtedness.  The remaining 50% of Citrus Corp. is owned by an affiliate of El Paso Corp. 

“We see several benefits to these transactions,” said George L. Lindemann, Southern Union Company chairman, president and CEO.  “With our increased investment in Florida Gas, we are upgrading our risk profile, enhancing our strategic position, and preserving our capital while still allowing us to grow well into the future in the strong Florida market.”  Eric D. Herschmann, senior executive vice president of the company, added, “Transwestern Pipeline has more strategic value to Energy Transfer, and we believe that in the capable hands of ETP Transwestern will continue to be a key component of the energy infrastructure in the southwestern United States.” 

From an operating perspective, the company expects the transactions to be approximately neutral on near-term earnings per share.

The transactions are expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2006 pending receipt of necessary regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.  The CCEH transactions follow the March 1, 2006 closing of Southern Union’s $1.6 billion acquisition of the Sid Richardson Energy Services natural gas gathering and processing business and the August 24, 2006 divestitures of Southern Union’s Pennsylvania and Rhode Island natural gas local distribution companies for $1.15 billion.
