Corporation who has acquired outstanding and special skills and abilities and an extensive background in and knowledge of the Corporation’s business and the industry in which it is engaged; and 


 

	 	(b)	the Board of Directors recognizes that it is essential, in the best interests of the Corporation, that the Corporation retain the continuing dedication of the Executive
to his office and employment and that this can best be accomplished if the personal uncertainty facing the Executive in the event of a Corporation initiated termination of employment of the Executive is alleviated; 


NOW THEREFORE THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSETH that in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, it is hereby agreed as set
forth below. 
 ARTICLE 1

to the terms defined in the text hereof, terms with initial capital letters as used herein have the meanings assigned to them below, for all purposes of this Agreement, or as set out in the Definitions Appendix hereto, unless the context reasonably

nonfeasance of any duty by Executive under this Agreement that has the effect of injuring the reputation, business, or business relationships of the Company or any Affiliate, or any of their respective officers, directors, or employees;
(c) violation by Executive of any term of this Agreement or any other agreement between Executive and the Company in any material respect; (d) conviction of Executive of (i) any felony, (ii) any other crime involving moral

Before the Company can terminate Executive for Cause pursuant to clause (a), (b), (c), (e) or (f) above, the Board of Directors shall give Executive written Notice of any alleged violation of said provision. In each case, only after
receipt of Notice which specifically identifies the manner and sets forth specific facts, circumstances and examples of which the Board of Directors believes that Executive has breached this Agreement and his continued willful failure to cure such
breach or nonperformance to the satisfaction of the Company within the time period set by the Board of Directors, but in no event less than ten (10) Business Days after Executive’s receipt of such Notice. 


For purposes of this definition, no act or failure to act on Executive’s part shall be deemed “willful” unless it is done
or omitted by Executive without his reasonable belief that such action or omission was in the best interest of the Company or an Affiliate (assuming disclosure of the pertinent facts, any action or omission by Executive after consultation with, and

 ARTICLE 2 
 EMPLOYMENT 
  

	2.1	Position, Duties and Responsibilities of Executive 

 The Executive shall have such responsibilities and powers as the Board of Directors or the bylaws of the Corporation or its Affiliates, or the Executive’s superiors, may from time to time prescribe
and are currently contemplated by his position as Executive Vice President, Enbridge Gas Pipelines, or substantially equivalent duties and responsibilities. Except as may be authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or by the
Executive’s superiors from time to time, the Executive shall devote the whole of his time to the Executive’s duties hereunder and shall use his best efforts to promote the interests of the Corporation and its Affiliates. 

Executive acknowledges and agrees that he owes a fiduciary duty of loyalty, fidelity, and allegiance to use his best efforts to act at
all times in the best interests of the Company and its Affiliates. In keeping with these duties, the Executive shall make full disclosure to the Company of all business opportunities pertaining to the Company’s business, and he shall not
appropriate for the Executive’s own benefit any business opportunity concerning the subject matter of this fiduciary relationship. 
  

	2.2	Term of Agreement 

 The
term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue in effect to and including the earliest of: 
  

	 	(a)	the effective date of the retirement of the Executive in accordance with the retirement policy established for senior employees of the Corporation, as determined by the
Corporation; 

  

	 	(b)	the Executive is terminated for Cause or the effective date of his resignation other than pursuant to Section 2.5(a)(ii) (Good Reason termination);


  

	 	(c)	the death of the Executive; or 

  

	 	(d)	the effective date that the employment of Executive is terminated for any other reason except pursuant to Section 2.2(a), (b) or (c) above.


 In the event of Executive’s termination pursuant to Section 2.2(a), (b) or (c), he shall
not be entitled to any separation benefits under Section 2.5. 
  

	2.3	Termination of Agreement upon Disability of Executive 

 In the event of Executive’s Disability, the employment of Executive may be terminated by the Corporation on 30 days’ prior written Notice to Executive. In the event of Executive’s
termination for Disability, he shall be entitled to receive the separation benefits under Section 2.5. 
  

	2.4	Termination of Agreement by the Corporation for Cause 

 The Corporation may terminate Executive’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates, at any time and without advance Notice to the Executive, for Cause. In such event, the Corporation shall
provide a Notice of Termination to Employee. In the event of Executive’s termination pursuant to this Section 2.4, he shall not be entitled to any separation benefits under Section 2.5. 

 

	2.5	Termination of Employment by the Corporation or the Executive for Other Reason 


 

	 	(a)	Except where such termination is pursuant to Sections 2.2(a), 2.2(b), 2.2(c) or 2.4, the provisions of this Section 2.5 shall apply:


  

	 	(i)	where the Corporation involuntarily terminates the employment of the Executive without Cause; 


  
 5 









	 	(ii)	where the Executive terminates his employment with the Corporation for Good Reason by providing the Corporation with a Notice of Termination; or


  

	 	(iii)	where the Corporation terminates the employment of Executive pursuant to Section 2.3 due to Executive’s Disability. 


 

	 	(b)	In the event of a termination of Executive’s employment for a reason provided in Section 2.5(a), the Executive shall be entitled to receive, and the
Corporation shall pay to the Executive, a retiring allowance (the “Retiring Allowance”) computed as hereinafter provided. The Retiring Allowance shall be that amount which is equal to two (2) times the sum of:


  

	 	(i)	the Annual Salary; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the average of the last two payments of the Annual Incentive Bonus paid to the Executive (or only the last payment if there has not been more than one Annual Incentive
Bonus paid to the Executive) immediately preceding the Termination Date, as determined by the Company. 

  

	 	(c)	In the event of a termination of Executive’s employment for a reason provided in Section 2.5(a), in addition to the Retiring Allowance in accordance
with Section 2.5(b), the Executive shall be entitled to the following: 

  

	 	(i)	the Corporation shall pay to the Executive an Annual Incentive Bonus for the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs, which is the product determined by a
fraction (the numerator of which is the number of days of employment for the Executive in that calendar year and denominator of which is 365) multiplied by the last Annual Incentive Bonus payment received by the Executive, as determined by the
Company. In addition, the Executive shall receive all accrued and unpaid annual vacation pay to the Termination Date. In addition, where the Executive holds rights under other plans to cash incentive compensation (including without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, any performance stock units payable in cash) the Executive shall be paid for the period in which he was employed a pro-rated amount (as determined under the applicable incentive plan) that the Executive was employed
through the Termination Date in relation to the number of days in the applicable plan period. Any such amounts shall be paid to the Executive in accordance with the terms of such plan; 


 

	 	(ii)	the Corporation shall pay to the Executive the cash value of two times the last annual flexible perquisite allowance provided to the Executive immediately preceding the
Termination Date under the Corporation’s executive flexible perquisites program, less any amounts prepaid to the Executive but unearned by Executive as of the Termination Date (as of the Effective Date, the annual flexible perquisite allowance
is $35,000); 

  

	 	(iii)	the Corporation shall pay to the Executive a lump sum payment that is equivalent to the amount of the Corporation’s portion of contributions (which excludes any
employee elective contributions made by Executive from his compensation) on behalf of the Executive that would have been made under the Corporation’s 401(k) plan for a two-year period (based upon the base salary of the Executive as of the
Termination Date), as determined by the Company; and 

  

	 	(iv)	the Corporation shall reimburse the Executive for financial counselling and/or career counselling assistance for the Executive up to a maximum of $20,000, provided that
Executive provides receipts satisfactory to the Company and such expenses are incurred by Executive within one year following the Termination Date. 

  

	 	(d)	 If the Executive has a vested benefit in the Defined Benefit Pension Plan and/or the Supplemental Benefit Pension Plan (each referred to as a
“Pension Plan”) on the Termination Date, he will be paid an additional amount under this Agreement (a “Pension Payout Amount”). The Pension Payout Amount is equal to the benefit that would have accrued under the
Pension Plan from the Termination Date for an additional two-year period, as determined by the Company. The Pension Payout Amount is 



  
 6 









	 	
a cash benefit provided under this Agreement, and not under the Pension Plan. If Executive does not have a vested benefit in the Pension Plan on the Termination Date, he will not receive a
Pension Payout Amount under this Agreement. 

 For the purposes of determining Executive’s final or best
average earnings, for purposes of determining the Pension Payout Amount, the following factors will be used: 
  

	 	(i)	the Executive’s salary for such year shall be deemed to be his Annual Salary as of the Termination Date; and 


 

	 	(ii)	the Annual Incentive Bonus used in calculating the Pensionable Bonus for each of such two additional years shall be deemed to be the average of the last two payments of
Annual Incentive Bonus paid to the Executive (or the last payment if there has not been more than one Annual Incentive Bonus paid to the Executive immediately preceding the Termination Date), as determined by the Company. 


 

	 	(e)	If, as of the Termination Date, the Executive holds vested and exercisable but unexercised stock options for the purchase of shares (or other securities) under any of
the Corporation’s or its Affiliates’ stock option plans, the Executive shall be entitled to exercise all such stock options so held in accordance with the terms of such plans and his stock option award agreements. If the Executive holds
options for the purchase of shares (or other securities) under any of the Corporation’s or its Affiliates’ stock option plans which are not vested at the Termination Date in a termination circumstance where this Section 2.5
applies, the Corporation shall pay to the Executive a cash amount that is equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares (or other securities) on the Termination Date over the exercise price for such options. For this purpose,
fair market value on the Termination Date shall mean the last board lot sale price on the New York Stock Exchange (or such other exchange on which the greatest volume of trading of such shares or other securities took place for the 30 trading days
prior to the Termination Date) for Enbridge, Inc. on the last trading day prior to the Termination Date. 

  

	 	(f)	The amounts payable by the Corporation to the Executive pursuant to Section 2.5 shall not be reduced by any amounts earned by the Executive after the
Termination Date. 

  

	 	(g)	All amounts paid by the Corporation to the Executive pursuant to Section 2.5 shall satisfy and forever discharge all liabilities, claims or actions that the
Executive may or shall have against the Corporation, whether arising from the termination of employment of the Executive or any other reason, whether at common law, under statute or otherwise. 


 

	 	(h)	In consideration for the benefits provided for under this Section 2.5, the Executive shall first execute and deliver the Release described in
Section 2.6 to the Corporation. 

  

	2.6	Release Agreement  


Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in order to receive the separation benefits provided under
Section 2.5 (the “Separation Benefits”), Executive must first execute the Release (on a form provided by the Company), in substantially the same form as set forth in Schedule A, whereby Executive agrees to release
and waive, in return for such Separation Benefits, any claims that he may have against the Company and its Affiliates including, without limitation, for unlawful discrimination or retaliation (e.g., Title VII of the U.S. Civil Rights Act);
provided, however, the Release shall not release any claim by or on behalf of Executive for any payment or benefit that is due and payable under the terms of this Agreement. 
 Executive must sign and return the executed Release within sixty (60) days of the date of his receipt of the Release on or after the Termination Date. No Separation Benefits shall be payable or
provided by the Company unless and until the Release has been executed by Executive, has not been revoked, and is no longer subject to revocation by Executive. The Separation Benefits shall be paid or provided by the Company at the end of such
60-day period, but only if the Release has been properly executed by Executive and is not revocable at that time, 

  
 7 








 
regardless of the date on which the Release was actually executed by Executive. In the event that such 60-day period spans two calendar years, the Separation Benefits will be paid in the later
year. If the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence are not satisfied by Executive, the Separation Benefits shall be forfeited hereunder without the necessity of any further notice. 

ARTICLE 3 

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION AND 
 RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS 
  

	3.1	Access to Confidential Information and Specialized Training 

 In connection with his employment and continuing on an ongoing basis during the Employment Period, the Company and its Affiliates will give Executive access to Confidential Information, which Executive
did not have access to or knowledge of before the execution of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges and agrees that all Confidential Information is confidential and a valuable, special and unique asset of the Company that gives the Company an
advantage over its actual and potential, current and future competitors. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that Executive owes the Company a fiduciary duty to preserve and protect all Confidential Information from unauthorized disclosure or
unauthorized use, that certain Confidential Information constitutes “trade secrets” under applicable laws, and that unauthorized disclosure or unauthorized use of the Confidential Information would irreparably injure the Company or an
Affiliate. 
  

	3.2	Agreement Not to Use or Disclose Confidential Information 

 Both during the term of Executive’s employment and after his termination of employment for any reason (including wrongful termination), Executive shall hold all Confidential Information in strict
confidence, and shall not use any Confidential Information except for the benefit of the Company or its Affiliates, in accordance with the duties assigned to Executive. Executive shall also comply with the “Enbridge, Inc. and its Subsidiaries
Revised Statement of Business Conduct” as it may be amended, and any similar or successor policy maintained or adopted by the Corporation. 
  

	3.3	Duty to Return Company Documents and Property 

 Upon the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates, for whatever reason, Executive shall immediately return and deliver to the Company any and all papers, books,
records, documents, memoranda and manuals, e-mail, electronic or magnetic recordings or data, including all copies thereof, belonging to the Company or an Affiliate or relating to their businesses, in Executive’s possession or under his
control, and regardless of , whether prepared by Executive or others. If at any time after the Employment Period, Executive determines that he has any Confidential Information in his possession or under his control, Executive shall immediately
return to the Company all such Confidential Information, including all copies (including electronic versions) and portions thereof. Within one (1) day after the end of the Employment Period for any reason, the Executive shall return to Company
all Confidential Information which is in his possession, custody or control. 
  

	3.4	Non-Solicitation Restriction 

 To protect the Confidential Information, and in the event of Executive’s termination of employment for any reason, it is necessary to enter into the following restrictive covenants which are
ancillary to the enforceable promises between the Company and Executive in this Agreement. Executive hereby covenants and agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly, either individually or as a principal, owner, agent, or in any other capacity
or on behalf of any other Person, except on behalf of the Company or an Affiliate, solicit business, or attempt to solicit 

  
 8 








 
business, in products or services competitive with any products or services provided by the Company or any Affiliate, from the Company’s or Affiliate’s partners or customers (or any
prospective partner or customer) as of the Termination Date, or any other Person with whom the Company or Affiliate had a business relationship with within the one (1) year period immediately preceding the Termination Date. This
non-solicitation covenant shall remain in effect for one year following the Termination Date. 
  

	3.5	No-Recruitment Restriction 

 The Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, for the Executive or for any other Person, in any geographic area or market where the Company or any of its Affiliates is conducting any business, induce
any employee of the Company of any of its Affiliates to terminate his or her employment with the Company or such Affiliate, or hire or assist in the hiring of any such employee by any Person not affiliated with the Company, unless such employee has
terminated employment with the Company and its Affiliates for at least thirty (30) days before such initial solicitation. These nonsolicitation obligations shall apply during the period that the Executive is employed by the Company and during
the two-year period commencing on the Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 3.5 shall not restrict the ability of the Company or its Affiliates to take any action with respect to the employment
or the termination of employment of any of its employees, or for the Executive to participate in his capacity as an officer of the Company. 
  

	3.6	Reformation 

 It is
expressly understood and agreed that the Company and the Executive consider the restrictions contained in this Article 3 to be reasonable and necessary to protect the Confidential Information and reasonable business interests of the Company
or its Affiliates. Nevertheless, if any of the aforesaid restrictions are found by a court having jurisdiction to be unreasonable, or overly broad as to geographic area or time, or otherwise unenforceable, the Parties intend for the restrictions
therein set forth to be modified by such court so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified, to be fully enforced in the geographic area and for the time period to the full extent permitted by law. 

 

	3.7	No Previous Restrictive Agreements 

 Executive represents that, except as disclosed in writing to the Company, he is not bound by the terms of any agreement with any previous employer or other Person to (a) refrain from using or
disclosing any trade secret or confidential or proprietary information in the course of Executive’s employment by the Company or (b) refrain from competing, directly or indirectly, with the business of such previous employer or any other
Person. Executive further represents that his performance under this Agreement will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information, knowledge or data acquired by Executive in confidence prior to Executive’s employment
with the Company, and Executive will not disclose to the Company or induce the Company to use any confidential or proprietary information or material belonging to any previous employer or any other Person. 

 

	3.8	Remedies 

 Executive
acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Article 3, in view of the nature of the Company’s business, are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s legitimate business interests, and that any violation of
this Agreement would result in irreparable injury to the Company. In the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Executive of any provision of Article 3, the Company shall be entitled to a temporary restraining order and injunctive
relief restraining Executive from the commission of any breach, and to recover the Company’s attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses related to the breach or threatened breach. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as
prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available to it for any such breach or threatened breach. These covenants and disclosures shall each be construed as 

  
 9 








 
independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Executive against the Company or an Affiliate, whether predicated on this Agreement or
otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of such covenants and agreements. 
  

	3.9	No Disparaging Comments 


Executive and the Company shall refrain from any criticisms or disparaging comments about each other or in any way relating to
Executive’s employment or separation from employment; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall apply to or restrict in any way the communication of information by the Company or any of its Affiliates or by the Executive to any
state or federal law enforcement agency. The Company and Executive will not be in breach of this covenant solely by reason of testimony or disclosure that is required for compliance with applicable law or regulation or by compulsion of law. A
violation or threatened violation of this prohibition may be enjoined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The rights under this provision are in addition to any and all rights and remedies otherwise afforded by law to the Parties. 

 

	3.10	Company Documents and Property 

 All writings, records, and other documents and things comprising, containing, describing, discussing, explaining, or evidencing any Confidential Information, and all equipment, components, parts, tools,
and the like in Executive’s custody, possession or control that have been obtained or prepared in the course of Executive’s employment with the Company or an Affiliate shall be the exclusive property of the Company or an Affiliate.

  

	3.11	Legal Fees and Expenses 


The Corporation shall pay all reasonable costs incurred by the Executive, as determined in the discretion of the Corporation’s Chief
Executive Officer or a senior executive of Enbridge, Inc., in respect of legal, consulting and accounting expenses in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement. The Corporation shall pay all costs, charges and expenses incurred
in respect of legal, consulting and accounting expenses (including legal fees, charges and disbursements on an as between an attorney and his own client basis) that are incurred by the Executive or his estate in taking any action or enforcing any
right or benefit provided to the Executive under this Agreement; provided, however, only if, and to the extent, that the Executive is substantially successful in any such action or in enforcing any such right or benefit, and provided further, that
any payments pursuant to this Section 3.11 shall not exceed a maximum amount of $20,000 (or such greater amount as may be ordered by any court or other competent authority). 

ARTICLE 4 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 
  

	4.1	Matters Relating to Section 409A of the Code 

 Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if the payment of any compensation or benefit provided hereunder (including, without limitation, any Separation Benefits) would be subject
to additional taxes and interest under Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), then the following provisions shall apply: 
  

	 	(a)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any amounts payable to Executive under this Agreement in connection with a termination of
Executive’s employment that would be considered “non-qualified deferred compensation” that is subject to, and not exempt under, Section 409A, a termination of employment shall not be considered to have occurred under this
Agreement unless and until such termination constitutes Executive’s “separation from service” with the Company and its Affiliates, as such term is defined under Section 409A (“Separation from Service”).



  
 10 










	 	(b)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Separation Benefits payable to Executive pursuant to
this Agreement shall be made in reliance upon Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (relating to separation pay plans) or Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (relating to short-term deferrals). However, to the extent any
such payments are treated as “non-qualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A, and if Executive is deemed at the time of his Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of
Section 409A, then to the extent delayed payment of the benefits to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited payment under Section 409A, such payment shall not be made to Executive before
the earlier of (1) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date Executive’s Separation from Service or (2) the date of Executive’s death. Upon the earlier of such dates, all payments deferred pursuant to this
Section 4.1 shall be paid in a lump sum to Executive (or to Executive’s Designated Beneficiary in the event of his death). The determination of whether Executive is a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A
at the time of his Separation from Service shall be made by the Company in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A. 

  

	 	(c)	This Agreement is intended to be written, administered, interpreted and construed in a manner such that no payment under this Agreement becomes subject to (1) the
gross income inclusion under Section 409A or (2) the interest and additional tax under Section 409A (collectively, “Section 409A Penalties”), including, where appropriate, the construction of defined terms to have
meanings that would not cause the imposition of the Section 409A Penalties. For purposes of Section 409A, each payment that Executive may be eligible to receive under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate and distinct payment and
shall not collectively be treated as a single payment. If any provision of this Agreement would cause Executive to incur the Section 409A Penalties, the Company may, after consulting with Executive, reform such provision to comply with
Section 409A or to preclude imposition of the Section 409A Penalties, to the full extent permitted under Section 409A. 

  

	4.2	Withholdings; Right of Offset 

 The Company may withhold and deduct from any benefits and payments made or to be made pursuant to this Agreement (a) all federal, state, local, foreign, and other taxes as may be required pursuant to
any law or governmental regulation or ruling, (b) all other employee deductions made with respect to Company’s employees generally, and (c) any advances made to Executive and owed to Company. 

 

	4.3	Nonalienation 

 The right
to receive payments under this Agreement shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or encumbrance by Executive, his dependents or beneficiaries, or to any other Person who is or may become
entitled to receive such payments hereunder. The right to receive payments hereunder shall not be subject to or liable for the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any Person who is or may become entitled to receive such payments,
nor may the same be subject to attachment or seizure by any creditor of such Person under any circumstances, and any such attempted attachment or seizure shall be void and of no force and effect. 

 

	4.4	Successors and Assigns 


This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor of the Company (whether direct or
indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise), and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s legal representatives. The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by
purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be
required to perform it if no such succession had 

  
 11 









 
taken place. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as previously defined and any successor by operation of law or otherwise, as well as any successor to its
business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement. Except as provided in the preceding provisions of this Section 4.4, this Agreement, and the rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder, are
personal in nature and neither this Agreement, nor any right, benefit, or obligation of either Party hereto, shall be subject to voluntary or involuntary assignment, alienation or transfer, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the
written consent of the other Party. 
  

	4.5	Notice 

 Each Notice or
other communication required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and transmitted, delivered, or sent by personal delivery, prepaid courier or messenger service (whether overnight or same-day), or prepaid certified United States
mail (with return receipt requested), addressed (in any case) to the other Party at the address for that Party set forth below or under that Party’s signature on this Agreement, or at such other address as the recipient has designated by Notice
to the other Party.

 1100 Louisiana St., Suite 3300 

Houston, TX 77002 

Attention: Chief Legal Officer 
 To Executive: (As set forth below his signature on the signature page of this Agreement.) 
 Each Notice or communication so transmitted, delivered, or sent (a) in person, by courier or messenger service, or by certified United States mail (return receipt requested) shall be deemed given,
received, and effective on the date delivered to or refused by the intended recipient (with the return receipt, or the equivalent record of the courier or messenger, being deemed conclusive evidence of delivery or refusal), or (b) by telecopy
or facsimile shall be deemed given, received, and effective on the date of actual receipt (with the confirmation of transmission being deemed conclusive evidence of receipt, except where the intended recipient has promptly Notified the other Party
that the transmission is illegible). Nevertheless, if the date of delivery or transmission is not a Business Day, or if the delivery or transmission is after 4:00 p.m. (local time at the recipient) on a Business Day, the Notice or other
communication shall be deemed given, received, and effective on the next Business Day. 
  

	4.6	Severability 

 It is the
desire of the Parties hereto that this Agreement be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and should any provision contained herein be held unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Parties hereby agree and consent that such
provision shall be reformed to create a valid and enforceable provision to the maximum extent permitted by law; provided, however, if such provision cannot be reformed, it shall be deemed ineffective and deleted herefrom without affecting any other
provision of this Agreement. This Agreement should be construed by limiting and reducing it only to the minimum extent necessary to be enforceable under then applicable law. 

 

	4.7	No Third Party Beneficiaries 

 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto, and to their respective successors and permitted assigns hereunder, but otherwise this Agreement shall not be for the
benefit of any third parties. 
  

	4.8	Waiver of Breach 

 No
waiver by either Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other Party, or of compliance with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by the other Party, will operate or


  
 12 









 
be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by the other Party or any similar or dissimilar provision or condition at the same or any subsequent time. The failure of either Party to take
any action by reason of any breach will not deprive such Party of the right to take action at any time while such breach continues. 
  

	4.9	Survival of Certain Provisions 

 Wherever appropriate to the intention of the Parties, the respective rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement or the termination of
Executive’s employment. 
  

	4.10	Entire Agreement; Amendment and Termination 

 This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the matters covered herein; moreover, this Agreement supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings,
oral or written, between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be amended, waived or terminated only by a written instrument that is identified as an amendment, waiver or termination hereto and that is executed by or
on behalf of each Party. 
  

	4.11	Interpretive Matters 

 In
the interpretation of the Agreement, except where the context otherwise requires: 
  

	 	(a)	Headings. The Agreement headings are for reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

	4.12	Governing Law; Jurisdiction 

 All matters or issues relating to the interpretation, construction, validity, and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without giving effect to any

 SCHEDULE A 
 TO 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

GENERAL RELEASE 
 In consideration of the Separation Benefits set forth in Article 2 of that certain Employment Agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) dated as of January     ,
2014, by and between Enbridge Employee Services, Inc. (the “Company”) and C. Gregory Harper (“Executive”), as it may be amended from time to time, this Release Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made
and entered into by the Company and Executive. The Company and Executive may sometimes hereafter be referred to singularly as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties.” 

By signing this Agreement, Executive and the Company agree as follows: 

 

	1.	Purpose. The purpose of this Agreement is to provide for the orderly termination of the employment relationship between the Parties, and to voluntarily resolve
any actual or potential disputes or claims that Executive has or might have, as of the date of Executive’s execution of this Agreement, against the Company and the Company’s owners, parents, subsidiaries, and Affiliates (as defined in the
Employment Agreement), and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, owners, agents, attorneys, advisors, representatives, successors, assigns, employee benefit plans and plan fiduciaries (hereinafter collectively referred to as the
“Released Parties”). Neither the fact that this Agreement has been proposed or executed, nor the terms of this Agreement, are intended to suggest, or should be construed as suggesting, that the Released Parties have acted unlawfully
or violated any federal, state or local law or regulation, or any other duty, policy or contract. 

  

	2.	Termination of Employment. Effective [—] (the “Termination Date”), Executive’s
employment with the Company was terminated. 

  

	3.	Separation Benefits. In consideration for Executive’s execution of, and required performance under, this Agreement, the Company shall provide Executive with
the Separation Benefits (as such term is defined in the Employment Agreement), which benefits Executive would not otherwise have received, or been entitled to receive, other than those benefits that are required to be paid or provided under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), or other applicable laws. All Company perquisites have ceased upon the Termination Date, and all payments hereunder shall be net of applicable federal, foreign,
state and local taxes, as required by law. 

  

	4.	Waiver of Additional Compensation or Benefits. The Separation Benefits to be paid to Executive under Section 3 above constitute the entire amount of
compensation and consideration due to Executive under this Agreement or any other agreement, policy, plan or arrangement of the Company providing for severance or separation benefits. Executive acknowledges that he has no right to seek, and will not
seek, any additional or different compensation or consideration for executing or performing under this Agreement. 


The Parties acknowledge and agree that Executive is not releasing claims to employee benefits pursuant to the Company’s or its
Affiliates’ employee benefit plans that are subject to ERISA which explicitly provide for the payment of benefits following the Termination Date. 
  

	5.	Tax Consequences. The Company has made no representations to Executive regarding the tax consequences of any Separation Benefit received by Executive under this
Agreement. To the extent that any payments or benefits provided hereunder are considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Company intends for this
Agreement to comply with, or be exempt from, the standards for nonqualified deferred compensation established by Section 409A of the Code (the “409A Standards”). To the extent that any terms of this Agreement would subject
Executive to gross income inclusion, interest or an additional tax pursuant to Code Section 409A, those terms are to that extent superseded by the 409A Standards. The Company reserves the right to amend the timing of any payments to be made
hereunder in order to comply with the 409A Standards to the full extent permitted under Code Section 409A as determined by the Company.

		 	 	Executive’s Initials	  










	6.	Certain Continuing Obligations. Executive acknowledges and agrees that certain provisions and post-employment covenants and obligations in the Employment
Agreement shall survive the (a) termination of the employment relationship, (b) termination of the Employment Agreement, and (c) the execution of this Agreement; and Executive hereby agrees to fully honor his post-employment covenants
and obligations as set forth in the Employment Agreement. 

  

	7.	Executive Representations. Executive expressly acknowledges and represents, and intends for the Company to rely upon his representations that he:


  

	 	(1)	Has not filed any complaints, claims or actions against the Company or its Affiliate with any court, agency, or commission regarding the matters encompassed by this
Agreement and that he will not do so at any time in the future; and that if any court or agency assumes jurisdiction of any complaint, claim or action against the Company or its Affiliate on behalf of Executive, he will direct that court or agency
to withdraw from or dismiss with prejudice the matter. 

  

	 	(2)	Understands that he is, by entering into this Agreement, releasing the Released Parties, including the Company and its Affiliates, from and against any and all claims
he has or may ever have against them under federal, state, or local laws, which claims have arisen on or before the date of his execution of this Agreement. 


 

	 	(3)	Understands that he is, by entering into this Agreement, waiving all claims that he may have against the Released Parties under the federal Age Discrimination in
Employment Act of 1967, as amended, which have arisen on or before the date of his execution of this Agreement. 

  

	 	(4)	Has reviewed all aspects of this Agreement, and has carefully read and fully understands all of the provisions and effects of this Agreement. 


 

	 	(5)	Has been, and is hereby, advised in writing to consult with an attorney of his choice before signing this Agreement. 


 

	 	(6)	Is knowingly and voluntarily entering into this Agreement, and has relied solely and completely upon his own judgment and, if applicable, the advice of his own attorney
in entering into this Agreement. 

  

	 	(7)	Is not relying upon any representations, promises, predictions, projections, or statements made by or on behalf of any Released Party, other than those that are
specifically stated in this written Agreement. 

  

	 	(8)	Does not waive rights or claims that may first arise after the date this Agreement is signed by Executive. 


 

	8.	 General Release and Waiver. In consideration of the Separation Benefits and other consideration provided for in this Agreement, that being good
and valuable consideration, the receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which are acknowledged by Executive, Executive, on his own behalf and on behalf of his agents, administrators, representatives, executors, successors, heirs, devisees and assigns
(collectively, the “Releasing Parties”) hereby fully releases, remises, waives, acquits and forever discharges the Company, and all of its Affiliates, subsidiaries and each of their respective past, present and future
officers, directors, agents, employees, consultants, independent contractors, attorneys, advisers, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”), jointly and severally, from any and all claims, rights,
demands, debts, obligations, losses, causes of action, suits, controversies, setoffs, affirmative defenses, counterclaims, third party actions, damages, penalties, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, liabilities and indemnities of any kind or
nature whatsoever (collectively, the “Claims”), whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, accrued or unaccrued, whether at law, equity, administrative, statutory or otherwise, and whether for injunctive relief, back
pay, fringe benefits, reinstatement, reemployment, or compensatory, punitive or any other kind of damages, which any of the Releasing Parties ever have had in the past or presently have against the Released Parties, and each of them, arising from or
relating to Executive’s employment with the Company or its Affiliates or the termination of that employment relationship or any circumstances related thereto, or any other matter, cause or thing whatsoever, including without limitation all
claims arising under 



  
 A-2


					
		 	 	Executive’s Initials	  










	 	
or relating to his employment, any alleged employment agreement or other agreement, bonuses, any bonus plan, any long term incentive plan, termination from employment, any other claimed payments,

U.S.C. § 1981, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Civil Rights Acts of 1866 and/or 1871, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Immigration Reform and Control Act, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Uniformed
Services Employment and Re-Employment Rights Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act, the National Labor
Relations Act, the Labor Management Relations Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Employee Polygraph Protection Act, the Texas Labor Code, the Texas Payday Law, the Texas Commission on Human Rights Act or

claims under any such laws, claims for wrongful discharge, breach of express or implied contract or implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, any alleged employment agreement or other agreement, and any other claims arising under state or
federal law, as well as any expenses, costs or attorneys’ fees. 

 Except as required by law, Executive agrees
that he will not commence, maintain, initiate, or prosecute, or cause, encourage, assist, volunteer, advise or cooperate with any other person to commence, maintain, initiate or prosecute, any action, lawsuit, proceeding, charge, petition, complaint
or claim before any court, agency or tribunal against the Company arising from, concerned with, or otherwise relating to, in whole or in part, Executive’s employment or separation from employment with the Company (or any Affiliate thereof), any
other alleged agreement or any of the matters discharged and released in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence or any other provision of this Agreement, this release is not intended to interfere with Executive’s right to file a
charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (the “EEOC”) in connection with any claim Executive believes he may have against the Company or its Affiliates. However, by executing this Agreement, Executive hereby
waives the right to recover in any proceeding he may bring before the EEOC or any state human rights commission or in any proceeding brought by the EEOC or any state human rights commission (or any other agency) on Executive’s behalf.

 This release shall not apply to the performance of any of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, COBRA
continuation coverage (which shall be subject to COBRA law and regulation) or with respect to Executive’s interest in any vested accrued benefit or account balance under any employee benefit plan subject to the Employment Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended (such as the Company’s 401(k) plan), to which Executive is entitled under terms and conditions of such plan. Executive acknowledges that certain of the Separation Benefits provided for in Section 3
constitute good and valuable consideration for the release contained in this Section 8. 
  

	9.	 Mutual Non-Disclosure and Confidentiality. The Parties agree to keep confidential the specific terms of this Agreement, the facts and
circumstances of Executive’s employment, and the events giving rise to this Agreement, and they shall not disclose same to any Person, except that (a) Executive may inform Executive’s spouse, financial, tax, professional, pastoral and
legal advisors of the contents or terms of this Agreement; and (b) the Company may disclose the terms of this Agreement, the facts and circumstances of Executive’s employment and the facts and circumstances giving rise to this Agreement to
those Persons as needed (including to implement the terms of this Agreement). Before sharing the Agreement or its terms with Executive’s financial, tax and legal advisors, Executive agrees to notify them of this confidentiality requirement. If
Executive or the Company is required to disclose the Agreement or any other confidential matter to others by legal process, the Party so ordered shall to the extent practical under the circumstances first give notice to the other Party in order that
such other Parties may have an opportunity to seek a 



  
 A-3

protective order. The Parties shall cooperate with each other, should either decide to seek a protective order with all costs and expenses being borne by the Party seeking such order. Executive
represents that at all times prior to his execution of this Agreement he has complied with the non-disclosure, confidentiality and non-disparagement obligations of this Agreement and the Employment Agreement. In the event that Executive breaches any
such non-disclosure, confidentiality or non-disparagement provisions regardless of whether such breach occurs before or after Executive executes this Agreement, Executive forfeits any and all rights to the Separation Benefits.


  

	11.	No Assignment of Claims. Executive represents that he has not transferred or assigned, to any person or entity, any Claim involving the Company, or any portion
thereof or interest therein. 

  

	12.	Binding Effect of Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns, and upon Executive and his heirs, spouse,
representatives, successors and assigns. 

  

	13.	Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be declared or determined to be illegal or invalid by any government agency or court of competent

	14.	No Waiver. This Agreement may not be waived, modified, amended, supplemented, canceled or discharged, except by written agreement of the Parties. Failure
to exercise and/or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege in this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver. No waiver of any breach of any provision shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any
other provision, nor shall any waiver be implied from any course of dealing between or among the Parties. 

  

	15.	Section 409A Compliance. It is the intention of the Company and the Executive that this Agreement is written and administered, and will be interpreted and
construed, in a manner such that no amount under this Agreement becomes subject to (a) gross income inclusion under Code Section 409A or (b) interest and additional tax under Code Section 409A (collectively, “Section 409A
Penalties”), including, where appropriate, the construction of defined terms to have meanings that would not cause the imposition of the Section 409A Penalties. Accordingly, the Executive consents to any amendment of this Agreement as
the Company may reasonably make in furtherance of such intention, and the Company shall promptly provide, or make available to, the Executive a copy of such amendment. Further, to the extent that any terms of the Agreement are ambiguous, such terms
shall be interpreted as necessary to comply with, or an exemption under, Code Section 409A when applicable.

representations between the Parties, whether oral or written, between the Parties, pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement and Executive’s employment or termination of employment with the Company. No oral statements or other prior
written material not specifically incorporated into this Agreement shall be of any force and effect, and no changes in or additions to this Agreement shall be recognized, unless incorporated into this Agreement by written amendment, with any such
amendment to become effective as of the date stipulated in it. Any amendment to this Agreement must be signed by both Parties. Executive represents and acknowledges that in executing this Agreement, Executive does not rely on, has not relied on, and
specifically disavows any reliance on, any communications, promises, statements, inducements, or representations, oral or written, by the Company or its Affiliates, attorneys or agents, except as expressly contained in this Agreement. Executive
further represents that Executive is relying on his own judgment in entering into this Agreement. 

  

	17.	 Venue. The exclusive venue for any and all Disputes, suits or other proceedings relating to or arising out of this Agreement or out of the
employment relationship shall be in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, or a state district court of competent jurisdiction in Harris County, Texas. Executive consents to personal jurisdiction of such courts to
adjudicate any Dispute or other controversy relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Employment Agreement, or Executive’s employment or termination of employment, and Executive agrees that he shall not challenge personal or subject
matter

jurisdiction in such courts. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.


  

	18.	Twenty-One Days to Consider Offer of Separation Benefits. Executive shall have, and by signing this Agreement Executive acknowledges and represents, that he has
had, the opportunity to take at least twenty-one (21) days after the date of his receipt of this Agreement to consider whether to elect to sign it and to thereby waive and release the rights and Claims addressed in this Agreement. Although
Executive may sign this Agreement prior to the end of the 21-day period, Executive may not sign this Agreement on or before the Termination Date. In addition, if Executive signs this Agreement prior to the end of the 21-day period, Executive shall
be deemed, by doing so, to have certified and agreed that the decision to make such election prior to the expiration of the 21-day period of time is knowing and voluntary and was not induced by the Company through: (a) fraud, misrepresentation,
or a threat to withdraw or alter the offer prior to the end of the 21-day period; or (b) an offer to provide different terms or benefits in exchange for signing the Agreement prior to the expiration of the 21-day period. Executive is advised to
consult with an attorney with regard to his decision as to whether or not to enter into this Agreement. 


Executive must sign and return the executed Release within sixty (60) days of the date of his receipt of the Release on or after the
Termination Date. No Separation Benefits shall be payable or provided by the Company unless and until the Release has been executed by Executive, has not been revoked, and is no longer subject to revocation by Executive. The Separation Benefits
shall be paid or provided by the Company at the end of such 60-day period, but only if the Release has been properly executed by Executive and is not revocable at that time, regardless of the date on which the Release was actually executed by
Executive. In the event that such 60-day period spans two calendar years, the Separation Benefits will be paid in the later year. If the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence are not satisfied by Executive, the Separation Benefits shall be
forfeited hereunder without the necessity of any further notice. 
  

	19.	Seven Day Revocation Period. Executive may revoke this Agreement at any time within seven (7) days after he signs it. To revoke the Agreement, Executive
must deliver written notification of such revocation to the attention of President & CEO, Enbridge Inc., within seven (7) days after the date Executive signs this Agreement. 


 

	20.	Knowing and Voluntary Waiver. Executive, by Executive’s free and voluntary act of signing below, (a) acknowledges that he has been given a period of
twenty-one (21) days to consider whether to agree to the terms contained herein, (b) acknowledges that he has been advised in writing to consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement, (c) acknowledges that he understands
that this Agreement specifically releases and waives all rights and claims that Executive may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, prior to the date on which Executive signs this Agreement, and (d) agrees to all of
the terms of this Agreement and intends to be legally bound thereby. 

 This Agreement will become effective,
enforceable and irrevocable on the eighth day after the date on which it is executed by Executive (the “Effective Date”). During the seven-day period prior to the Effective Date, Executive may revoke his agreement to release
claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act by indicating in writing to the Company his intention to revoke. If Executive exercises his right to revoke hereunder, Executive shall forfeit his right to receive the Separation Benefits.

  

	21.	Executive Acknowledgment. Executive acknowledges that (a) he is knowledgeable and sophisticated as to business matters, including the subject matter of this
Agreement, (b) he has read this Agreement and understands its terms and conditions, (c) he has had ample opportunity to discuss this Agreement with his personal legal counsel prior to execution, and (d) no strict rules of construction
shall apply for or against the drafter or any other Party. 

  

	22.	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a copy hereof containing multiple signature pages, each signed by one Party hereto, but together signed by both Parties.

	23.	Miscellaneous. Should any provision of this Agreement be declared or be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable, all remaining provisions of this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and be construed as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision has not been included herein. 


It is further understood and agreed that if a violation of any term of this Agreement is asserted, the Party who asserts such violation
will have the right to seek specific performance of that term and/or any other necessary and proper relief as permitted by law, including but not limited to, damages from any court of competent jurisdiction, and the prevailing Party shall be
entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorney’s fees. 
 Executive further understands and agrees that if he, or
someone acting on his behalf, files, or causes to be filed, any charge, complaint, or action in respect of Claims released hereunder against the Company and/or any other Released Parties, he expressly waives any right to recover any damages or other
relief whatsoever from the Company and/or other Released Parties, including costs and attorneys’ fees. 
  

	24.	Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas without regard to
principles of conflict of laws.
