intangible proprietary information or materials, that are used in the business of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities as presently conducted (the “TEPPCO Intellectual Property Rights”) and each such ownership, license, and right
to use will not be adversely affected by the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Upon satisfaction of the obligations of DEFS pursuant to Section 4.2 of this Agreement, TEPPCO MLP will own, license or otherwise have legally

the material covered thereby in connection with the services or products in respect of which such TEPPCO Intellectual Property Rights are being used except where the lack of any such right could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in
the aggregate, a TEPPCO Material Adverse Effect. None of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities has received any written notice or claim, or any other information, stating that the manufacture, sale, licensing, or use of any of the services or
products of any of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities as now manufactured, sold, licensed or used or proposed for manufacture, sale, licensing or use by any of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities in the ordinary course of their business as

Effect. None of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities has received any written notice or claim, or any other information, stating that the use by any of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities of any trademarks, service marks, trade names, trade

know-how and applications, except where such infringement could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a TEPPCO Material Adverse Effect. None of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities has received any written notice or
claim, or any other information, challenging the ownership by any of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities or the validity of any of the TEPPCO Intellectual Property Rights except where the absence of any such ownership could not reasonably be
expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a TEPPCO Material Adverse Effect. All registered patents, trademarks, service marks and copyrights held by any of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities are subsisting, except to the extent any
failure to be subsisting could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a TEPPCO Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of DEFS, there is no unauthorized use, infringement or misappropriation of any of the TEPPCO
Intellectual Property Rights by any third party, 

  

 21 








 
including any employee or former employee of any of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities. No TEPPCO Intellectual Property Right is subject to any known

without interference as it is currently being conducted) all their properties and assets, whether tangible or intangible, real, personal or mixed, free and clear of all liens. 
 (iii) Except for violations that could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a TEPPCO Material Adverse Effect, the
businesses of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities have been and are being operated in a manner which does not violate the terms of any easements, rights of way, permits, servitudes, licenses, leasehold estates and similar rights relating to real
property (collectively, “TEPPCO Easements”) used by the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities in such businesses. All TEPPCO Easements are valid and enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be
affected by bankruptcy, insolvency or other Laws of general applicability affecting the rights of creditors generally or principles of equity, and grant the rights purported to be granted thereby and all rights necessary thereunder for the current
operation of such businesses, except where the failure of any such TEPPCO Easement to be valid and enforceable or to grant the rights purported to be granted thereby or necessary thereunder would have a TEPPCO Material Adverse Effect. Except as set
forth in Section 3.3(p)(iii) of the TEPPCO Disclosure Letter, there are no gaps in the TEPPCO Easements that would impair the conduct of such businesses in a manner that could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
TEPPCO Material Adverse Effect, and no part of the TEPPCO Pipeline Assets is located on property that is not owned in fee by a TEPPCO Partnership Group Entity or subject to an easement in favor of a TEPPCO Partnership Group Entity, where the failure

business following the Execution Date, for a period of one year commencing on the Execution Date, upon the request from time to time from Enterprise on behalf of TEPPCO GP, DEFS shall provide or cause to be provided to TEPPCO GP support services of

employee benefit plan administrative services be provided after April 30, 2005 (the “Benefits Transition Services Period”). DEFS shall perform or cause to be performed the Transition Services in accordance with the Service
Standard (as defined below). TEPPCO GP, upon not less than ten days’ written notice from Enterprise to DEFS, at any time and from time to time may, as of the date set forth in that notice, terminate any or all of the Transition Services. If
DEFS makes any payments to third parties on behalf of TEPPCO GP in the process of providing Transition Services (such as paying payroll to TEPPCO GP employees on behalf of TEPPCO GP), TEPPCO GP will reimburse DEFS for the actual out-of-pocket amount
of such payments actually made by DEFS (“Third Party Payments”). TEPPCO GP also shall reimburse DEFS for 110% of the Direct Costs (as defined below) incurred by DEFS in providing the Transition Services provided in accordance with
this Section 4.7 and the Service Standard. No later than the tenth Business Day of each calendar month, beginning with the calendar month immediately following the Closing, DEFS will submit an invoice to TEPPCO GP for such Third Party
Payments and Direct Costs incurred during the prior calendar month which invoice shall include reasonable supporting documentation such as the nature and amount of Third Party Payments and Direct Costs and the Transition Services to which they are
attributable. If the Execution Date is on a day other than the last day of a month, the invoice shall be only for those Transition Services provided from the Execution Date until the end of the month in which the Closing took place. TEPPCO GP shall
pay the undisputed portion of each invoice within 30 days after its receipt. Records relating to the Transition Services and invoices shall be maintained by DEFS for a period of two years after an invoice is paid by TEPPCO GP. Upon reasonable prior
notice, TEPPCO GP (and its representatives and 

  

 29 








 
agents) shall have the right to audit and inspect, at its own expense, the books, records and other documents applicable to the Transition Services and
invoices during normal business hours at DEFS’s Denver, Colorado location for a period of two years following the date an invoice is delivered to TEPPCO GP. Notwithstanding the foregoing, DEFS and its affiliates shall have no obligation
pursuant to this Section 4.7 with regard to any comparable service provided by DEFS or any of its affiliates to the extent that Enterprise or its affiliates can offer the same or substantially the same service to the TEPPCO Partnership
Group Entities at no out-of-pocket incremental cost. 
 (b) As used in this Section 4.7 the term “Service Standard”
means, with respect to the standard of performance for the Transition Services performed or caused to be performed under this Section 4.7, the good-faith undertaking, on a commercially reasonable basis, to perform the Transition
Services (i) in at least the same quality and manner as the same or comparable services were provided by DEFS or its affiliates during the twelve months immediately preceding the Execution Date, and (ii) in all material respects in
compliance with all applicable Laws, Environmental Laws and Prudent Industry Practices (as defined below). 
 (c) As used in this
Section 4.7, the term “Direct Costs” means the costs or expenses other than Third Party Payments actually incurred by DEFS and affiliates of DEFS to employees and third parties directly attributable to the provision of
Transition Services pursuant to this Section 4.7, including a portion of the wages, employee benefits and employment taxes of the DEFS employees providing such services based upon how much time such employees spend providing such
services relative to their other work, but excluding any overhead of DEFS and any overhead and/or profit components that might be charged by an affiliate of DEFS to DEFS. 
 (d) As used in this Section 4.7, the term “Prudent Industry Practices” means, at a particular time, any of the practices, methods and acts which, in the exercise of reasonable judgment,
will result in the proper operation and maintenance of the assets owned by TEPPCO MLP and shall include without limitation, the practices, methods and acts engaged in or approved by a significant portion of the industry at such time with respect to
assets of the same or similar types as the assets owned by TEPPCO MLP. Prudent Industry Practices is not intended to be limited to the optimum practice, method or act, to the exclusion of all others, but rather is a spectrum of possible practices,
methods and acts which could have been expected to accomplish the desired result at a commercially reasonable cost consistent with reliability, safety, timeliness, and compliance in all material respects with all applicable Laws and Environmental
Laws. Prudent Industry Practices is intended to mean at least the same standard as the Parties would, in the prudent management of their own properties, use from time to time.

provision of Transition Services so long as such services are performed in accordance with the Service Standard.

the tenth Business Day prior to the due date (including extensions) for such Tax Returns and use reasonable efforts to consult with DEFS with respect to the preparation of the schedules K-1 relating to such Tax Returns. 
 (b) For federal income tax purposes, Enterprise and DEFS agree to treat the sale of the Membership Interest pursuant to this Agreement as a sale of the
general partner interest in TEPPCO MLP by DEFS to Enterprise. 
 Section 4.9 TEPPCO MLP and TEPPCO GP Audit. DEFS agrees to use
reasonable commercial efforts to cause KPMG LLP to support completion as promptly as practicable after the Closing of the audit of the consolidated financial statements of TEPPCO MLP for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the audit of the
consolidated financial statements of TEPPCO GP for the year ended December 31, 2004. 
 Section 4.10 Completion of 2004 Annual
Report. From and after the Closing, DEFS will take, and will cause its affiliates to take, all reasonable action to cause the executive officers and directors of TEPPCO GP (other than the independent directors) as of the Execution Date to remain
executive officers and directors of TEPPCO GP, respectively, and be available and prepared to sign the Draft 10-K in the form approved by the audit committee of the board of directors of TEPPCO GP and management of TEPPCO GP for filing with the SEC.
In the event that any such executive officers or directors are unable or unwilling to serve in such capacities, DEFS will cause to be available for election a sufficient number of representatives of DEFS to serve as executive officers and directors
of TEPPCO GP such that the Draft 10-K in the form approved for filing with the SEC (including all required certifications and reports included therein or filed or furnished therewith) is signed by the requisite executive officers and directors of
TEPPCO GP and timely filed with the SEC. 
 Section 4.11 Board of Directors. From and after the Closing and until such time that
the TEPPCO MLP Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 has been filed with the SEC, DEFS will take, and will cause its affiliates to take, all reasonable action to cause the directors of TEPPCO GP that are affiliated
with DEFS (a) to give Enterprise not less than 72 hours prior written notice of any meeting of the board of directors of TEPPCO GP or any committee thereof or any action to be taken by written consent in lieu of any such meeting and
(b) not to take any action, or approve or adopt any resolutions, at any meeting or by written consent in lieu thereof without the prior written consent of Enterprise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 4.11 shall
require any member of the board of directors of TEPPCO GP to violate his or her fiduciary duties in order to comply with this Section 4.11. 
 Section 4.12 Benefit Plans. 
 (a) As soon as administratively practicable following the Closing,
Enterprise shall take such actions as are necessary to cause a section 401(k) plan maintained by Enterprise or one of its affiliates to accept direct rollovers of Affected Employees’ eligible rollover distributions in cash (including plan loan
notes in accordance with the Enterprise 401(k) plan loan rules) from the Duke Energy Field Services 401(k) and Retirement Plan as elected by the Affected Employees. 
  

 31 








 (b) Effective no later than the close of the Benefits Transition Services Period, Enterprise or one of
its affiliates shall offer the Affected Employees who are then employed by Enterprise or one of its affiliates (including but not limited to TEPPCO GP) and their eligible spouses and dependents coverage under a Group Health Plan maintained by it
(the “Enterprise Group Health Plan”) and shall cause each Enterprise Group Health Plan to (i) waive any exclusions, restrictions or limitations with respect to pre-existing conditions or waiting periods thereunder to the extent
that the same were waived or satisfied by the Affected Employees on the end of the Benefits Transition Services Period under an analogous TEPPCO Group Health Plan and (ii) credit any health expenses paid by an Affected Employee or his covered
dependents during the year in which the Benefits Transition Services Period ends for purposes of satisfying any applicable deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket provisions under such Enterprise Group Health Plan. 
 (c) Enterprise shall take such actions as are necessary to ensure that an Affected Employee’s vacation entitlement accrued under a TEPPCO Plan as of
the Closing shall be recognized following the Closing under the vacation policy of Enterprise and its affiliates. 
 (d) Enterprise shall
take such actions as are necessary to ensure that the Affected Employees are provided credit for their service prior to the Closing for all purposes (including for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting and accrual of benefits) under all
employee benefit plans and vacation policies maintained by Enterprise and its affiliates in which the Affected Employees participate on or after the Closing to the same extent such Affected Employees’ service prior to the Closing was recognized
under the corresponding plans and vacation policies in which such Affected Employees participated immediately prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the case of pension plans (as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA)
such credit shall be given only for purposes of vesting and initial eligibility to participate. 
 (e) If within the two-year period
commencing on the Closing Date an Affected Employee incurs an “involuntary termination of employment” within the meaning of the Texas Eastern Products Pipeline Company, LLC Transition Severance Plan, as amended and restated effective
February 1, 2005 (the “TEPPCO Severance Plan”), Enterprise shall, within ten days following the termination of employment, pay or cause a subsidiary of Enterprise to pay the Affected Employee in a single sum in cash the benefit he
would have been eligible to receive at such time under the terms of the TEPPCO Severance Plan as in effect immediately prior to the Closing. DEFS shall not terminate an Affected Employee without Enterprise’s prior written consent. 

(f) With the exception of the Duke Energy Field Services 401(k) and Retirement Plan, during the Benefits Transition Services Period, DEFS shall permit
the Affected Employees to continue to participate in the DEFS Plans in which such Affected Employees participated immediately prior to the Closing (or any successor thereto) on the same basis as provided before the Closing. DEFS shall also cause all
insurance contracts issued with respect to such plans, including any stop loss issued to the Employer, to be amended to provide for the coverage of (or with respect to) the Affected Employees during the Benefits Transition Services Period.

  

 32 








 (g) On or prior to the Closing Date, DEFS shall cause any Affected Employee who is receiving long-term
disability benefits under a long-term disability plan maintained by DEFS to be transferred to the employ of DEFS. 
 (h) Effective no later
than the close of the Benefits Transition Services Period, Enterprise shall offer, or shall cause one of its affiliates to offer, employment to all Affected Employees who are then employed by DEFS, other than any such employees described in
paragraph (g) of this Section. 
 (i) DEFS shall permit any retired TEPPCO GP employee covered by the TEPPCO GP retiree health plan on
the Closing to continue such coverage during the Benefits Transition Services Period on the same basis as immediately prior to the Closing. 
 Section 4.13 GPL Insurance. For a period of six years after the Closing, DEFS shall cause to be maintained, at its expense, GPL (General Partners Liability) insurance for individuals who are or were before the Closing covered
under the existing TEPPCO MLP GPL insurance policy on terms substantially no less advantageous. 
 Section 4.14 Surety Bonds.
DEFS has advised Enterprise that DEFS or its affiliates have caused certain sureties (the “Sureties”) to issue surety bonds (the “Bonds”) pursuant to which DEFS or its affiliates are obligated to reimburse the
Sureties (the “Reimbursement Obligations”) for any payments made by the Sureties under the Bonds and for certain other obligations under or in connection with the Bonds (with the Reimbursement Obligations, the
“Obligations”). The Bonds are set forth on Section 4.14 of the TEPPCO Disclosure Letter. Enterprise agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into agreements with the Sureties to assume as soon as practical the
Obligations and to cause the Sureties to release DEFS or its affiliates from the Obligations. To the extent that Enterprise is unable to cause the Sureties to effect such assumption and release on terms acceptable to Enterprise, DEFS agrees to
maintain and to cause its affiliates to maintain the Bonds in effect, and Enterprise agrees to indemnify and hold harmless DEFS and its affiliates for any Damages incurred by DEFS and its affiliates as a result of being required to perform any
obligations under the Bonds. The indemnity obligations set forth in this Section 4.14 shall not be subject to any of the limitations on amount set forth in Article V. 
 Section 4.15 Other Insurance. DEFS or its affiliates will obtain insurance coverage promptly following Closing to provide a six month
extended period for claims reporting for all insurance policies covering the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities and their operations which policies were written on a “claims made” basis. After the expiration of such six-month period, at the
request of Enterprise, DEFS or its affiliates will continue to maintain extended coverage for each such policy as is specified by Enterprise. The costs for such coverage shall be reimbursed by Enterprise. DEFS or its affiliates will administer all
claims made on such insurance coverage, as well as all claims made on all of the insurance policies listed in Section 3.3(s) of the TEPPCO Disclosure Letter, other than the TEPPCO MLP GPL insurance policy and the environmental liability
policies listed in Section 3.3(s) of the TEPPCO Disclosure Letter. 
  

 33 








 ARTICLE V 
 REMEDIES FOR DEFAULT 
 Section 5.1 Indemnity Regarding Section 3.1 and Section 3.3
Representations and Covenants. Subject to the provisions of this Article V, DEFS shall indemnify and hold harmless Enterprise and its partners and their respective officers, directors and employees (the “Enterprise Indemnified
Parties”) from any and all Damages incurred by any such person in connection with the breach of (a) a representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.1 or Section 3.3 or (b) a covenant or agreement made
by DEFS hereunder; provided that, for purposes of calculating the amount of any Damages pursuant to Section 5.l(a), such representations and warranties shall be read and interpreted as if any Materiality Requirement contained
therein were not contained therein. Notwithstanding the forgoing, DEFS will not have any obligation to indemnify any Enterprise Indemnified Party for Damages arising pursuant to Section 5.l(a) for an individual claim or series of related
claims arising out of the same event or occurrence that do not exceed $250,000 (the “Individual Threshold”) and then only for such claim or series of related claims arising out of the same event or occurrence exceeding the
Individual Threshold that, in the aggregate, exceed $10,000,000, in which event DEFS shall be liable for all Damages only in excess of $10,000,000 (provided, however, that the Individual Threshold and $10,000,000 limitation shall not apply to
Damages arising pursuant to Section 5.l(a) resulting from a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.1); and the liability of DEFS under Section 5.l(a) shall not exceed $200,000,000 in
the aggregate. For the avoidance of doubt, DEFS shall have no obligation to indemnify and hold harmless any member of the TEPPCO Partnership Group Entities or the TEPPCO MLP Partially Owned Entities pursuant to Section 5.1; provided, however,
that should the Enterprise Indemnified Parties incur or suffer Damages from the breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.1 or Section 3.3 or a covenant or agreement made by DEFS hereunder, DEFS shall be
obligated to indemnify and hold harmless the Enterprise Indemnified Parties to the extent of such Damages. To the extent that a claim for indemnification under this Section 5.1 includes a claim for remediation costs to address a Release
of Hazardous Substance at or from any of the TEPPCO Pipeline Assets, such remediation costs shall be limited to remediations that are performed in a manner consistent with the current use of the property and consistent with then prevailing laws and
contracts and leases existing as of the Closing Date. 
 Section 5.2 Indemnity Regarding Section 3.2 Representations and
Covenants. Subject to the provisions of this Article V, Enterprise shall indemnify and hold harmless DEFS and its members and their respective officers, directors and employees (collectively, the “DEFS Indemnified Parties”)
from any and all Damages incurred by any such person in connection with the breach of (a) a representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.2 or (b) a covenant or agreement made by such party hereunder; provided that,
for purposes of calculating the amount of any Damages pursuant to Section 5.2(a), such representations and warranties shall be read and interpreted as if any Materiality Requirement contained therein were not contained therein.
Notwithstanding the forgoing, the liability of Enterprise under Section 5.2(a) shall not exceed $200,000,000 in the aggregate. 
 Section 5.3 Survival of Representations. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or made in any certificate or document delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing regardless
of any investigation made by the parties 

  

 34 








 
hereto, any person controlling such party or any of their Representatives and regardless of any knowledge acquired or capable of being acquired whether
before or after the Closing. The representations and warranties of the parties contained in Section 3.1, Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 shall survive the Closing and any investigation by the parties with respect
thereto until the expiration of 12 months after the Closing Date; provided, however, that (i) the representations and warranties of DEFS set forth in Section 3.1(d) shall survive indefinitely, and (ii) the
representations and warranties of DEFS set forth in Section 3.3(l) shall survive until the expiration of 36 months after the Closing Date and (iii) the representations and warranties in Section 3.3(q), and
Section 3.3(t) shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations, including all periods of extension thereof, whether automatic or permissive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that TEPPCO MLP is merged with or into
Enterprise or an affiliate of Enterprise (it being acknowledged and agreed by the parties that there is no such obligation to effect such merger), the representations and warranties of the parties contained in Section 3.3 shall terminate
immediately upon the effective time of the merger and any and all obligations of DEFS to indemnify and hold harmless the Enterprise Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 5.1 with respect to a breach of the representations and warranties
contained in Section 3.3 shall also terminate as of such effective time, including with respect to any claims for Damages that have been discovered or asserted but not satisfied prior to such effective time. Except to the extent
expressly provided otherwise in the preceding sentence, the expiration of any survival period under this Agreement will not affect the liability of any party under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2, as the case may be, for any
Damages as to which a bona fide claim relating thereto is asserted prior to the termination of such survival period. 
 Section 5.4
Calculation of Damages. 
 (a) Any calculation of Damages for purposes of this Article V shall be net of any insurance proceeds or
other payments received by or on behalf of such indemnified party with respect thereto after taking into account retrospective premium adjustments, experience-based premium adjustments and indemnification obligations. If an indemnified party
hereunder shall have received an indemnity payment in respect of Damages and shall subsequently receive, directly or indirectly, insurance or other proceeds in respect of the claims or losses giving rise to such Damages, then such indemnified party
and indemnifying party shall reimburse each other as appropriate to reflect the amount of Damages the indemnified party is entitled to receive in accordance with the preceding sentence. 
 (b) For the avoidance of doubt, any calculation of Damages for purposes of this Article V shall be net of amounts reflected as reserves on the TEPPCO MLP
Balance Sheet. 
 Section 5.5 Enforcement of this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that an award of money
damages would be inadequate for any breach of this Agreement by any party and any such breach would cause the non-breaching parties irreparable harm. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this
Agreement by one of the parties, the parties will also be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, provided such party is not in material
default hereunder. 
  

 35 








 Section 5.6 Exclusive Remedy. Except as set forth in Section 5.5 and
Section 5.8, the parties agree that the indemnification provisions in this Article V shall be the exclusive remedy of the parties with respect to breaches of representations and warranties and failures to perform covenants or agreements
hereunder. 
 Section 5.7 Limitation on Damages. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL
ANY PARTY HERETO BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO, OR TO SUCH OTHER PARTY’S INDEMNITEES, UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR DAMAGES ARISING FROM LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, LOSS OF BUSINESS REPUTATION, OR THE COST
OF BORROWING; PROVIDED THAT, IF ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY HEREUNDER IS HELD LIABLE TO A THIRD PARTY FOR ANY SUCH DAMAGES AND THE INDEMNIFYING PARTY HEREUNDER IS OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY FOR THE MATTER THAT GAVE RISE TO SUCH
DAMAGES, THE INDEMNIFYING PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR, AND OBLIGATED TO REIMBURSE SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY FOR SUCH DAMAGES. THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT IN CLAIMS ARISING UNDER ARTICLE V HEREOF, CHANGES IN THE TRADING PRICE OF AN LP UNIT IN THE
PUBLIC MARKETS SHALL NOT ESTABLISH OR NEGATE SUCH A DAMAGE CLAIM. 
 Section 5.8 No Waiver Relating to Claims for Fraud/Willful
Misconduct. The liability of any party under this Article V shall be in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other liability that such party may have at law or in equity based on such party’s (a) fraudulent acts or omissions or
(b) willful misconduct. None of the provisions set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver by or release of any party of any right or remedy which such party may have at law or equity based on any other party’s fraudulent
acts or omissions or willful misconduct nor shall any such provisions limit, or be deemed to limit, (i) the amounts of recovery sought or awarded in any such claim for fraud or willful misconduct, (ii) the time period during which a claim
for fraud or willful misconduct may be brought, or (iii) the recourse which any such party may seek against another party with respect to a claim for fraud or willful misconduct. 
 Section 5.9 Express Negligence Clause. ALL RELEASES, DISCLAIMERS, LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY AND INDEMNITIES IN THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THOSE
IN THIS ARTICLE V, SHALL APPLY EVEN IN THE EVENT OF THE SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER FAULT OF THE PARTY WHOSE LIABILITY IS RELEASED, DISCLAIMED, LIMITED OR INDEMNIFIED. 
 ARTICLE VI

 37 








 
construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Each party thereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally (a) consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court located in Houston, Texas (the “Texas Courts”) for any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and agrees not to commence any litigation relating thereto except in such courts), (b) waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such litigation in the
Texas Courts and agrees not to plead or claim in any Texas Court that such litigation brought therein has been brought in any inconvenient forum and (c) acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement is likely
to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising or relating to this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 Section 6.3 Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement
constitutes the entire agreement between and among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the parties, and there are
no warranties, representations or other agreements between or among the parties in connection with the subject matter hereof except as set forth specifically herein. No supplement, modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless
executed in writing by the party to be bound thereby. The failure of a party to exercise any right or remedy shall not be deemed or constitute a waiver of such right or remedy in the future. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall
be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (regardless of whether similar), nor shall any such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. 
 Section 6.4 Binding Effect and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective permitted successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any rights, benefits or
obligations hereunder. No party hereto may assign, transfer, dispose of or otherwise alienate this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement (whether by operation of law or otherwise). Any attempted assignment,
transfer, disposition or alienation in violation of this Agreement shall be null, void and ineffective. 
 Section 6.5
Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule of applicable Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless
remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated herein are not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is
invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order
that the transactions contemplated herein are consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible. 
 Section 6.6
Execution. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one instrument.
