 COMMITMENT LETTER 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

CenterPoint Energy, Inc. (“CenterPoint Energy”) and Enogex LLC (“Enogex” and, together with CenterPoint
Energy, “you” or the “Companies”, and each individually, a “Company”) have advised Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“CGMI”), UBS Loan Finance LLC (“UBSLF”) and UBS
Securities LLC (“UBS Securities” and, together with CGMI and UBSLF, “we” or “us”) that you plan to form a joint venture (the “Borrower”), which will be a Delaware limited
partnership (and will be the successor to CenterPoint Energy Field Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company), and to consummate the other Transactions described in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Transaction
Description”). In addition, you have informed us that you desire to cause the Borrower to establish a $1,050,000,000 3-year unsecured term loan facility (the “Facility”), the proceeds of which would be used by the Borrower
for general corporate purposes and for the repayment of debt of the Borrower owing to CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp. (“CERC”). Capitalized terms used in this commitment letter but not defined herein shall have the meanings given
to them in the Transaction Description or the Summary of Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Term Sheet”; this commitment letter, the Transaction Description and the Term Sheet, collectively, the
“Commitment Letter”). 
 In connection with the Transactions, (a) CGMI, on behalf of Citi (as defined
below), is pleased to inform the Companies of Citi’s several, but not joint, commitment to provide $525,000,000 of the Facility, and (b) UBSLF is pleased to inform the Companies of UBSLF’s several, but not joint, commitment to provide
$525,000,000 of the Facility, in each case on the terms and subject only to the conditions set forth in Section 1 hereof. 







 For purposes of this Commitment Letter, (a) “Citi” means CGMI,
Citibank, N.A., Citicorp USA, Inc., Citicorp North America, Inc. and/or any of their affiliates as may be appropriate to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; (b) “Initial Lenders” means, collectively, Citi and
UBSLF; (c) “Initial Commitment Parties” means, collectively, Citi, UBSLF and UBS Securities; and (d) “Commitment Parties” means, collectively, the Initial Commitment Parties and each other financial
institution that becomes a party hereto pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Commitment Parties and you (a “Joinder Agreement”). 

The commitment and other obligations of each Commitment Party hereunder are several and not joint. No Commitment Party is responsible for
the performance of the obligations of another Commitment Party, and the failure of a Commitment Party to perform its obligations hereunder will not prejudice the rights of any other Commitment Party hereunder. 

Section 1. Conditions Precedent. Each Commitment Party’s commitment hereunder and agreement to perform the
services described herein are subject solely to the following conditions: 
 (a) the preparation, execution and
delivery of mutually acceptable definitive loan documentation for the Facility, including, without limitation, a credit agreement incorporating substantially the terms and conditions outlined in this Commitment Letter, which shall be subject to the
Certain Funds Provision (as defined below) (the “Operative Documents”); 
 (b) other than as
disclosed in the SEC Reports (as defined below) or otherwise prior to the date hereof, the absence since December 31, 2012 of any Closing Date Material Adverse Effect (as defined below); 

(c) the accuracy in all material respects of the Specified Representations (as defined below) (other than those Specified
Representations that are subject to a materiality qualifier in the text thereof, which shall be accurate in all respects) and the performance in all material respects by the Companies of their agreements hereunder; 

(d) such Commitment Party not discovering or otherwise becoming aware of any information not previously disclosed to it
that is inconsistent in a material and adverse manner with the information provided to it prior to the date hereof, regarding the business, condition (financial or otherwise), or operations of the Borrower, its subsidiaries and the assets and
businesses to be contributed to the Borrower pursuant to the Transactions, taken as a whole; and 
 (e) the
satisfaction of the other conditions set forth under the heading “Conditions Precedent to Closing” contained in the Term Sheet. 
 As used herein, “Closing Date Material Adverse Effect” means a material adverse effect on the business, condition (financial or otherwise), properties, assets, liabilities, obligations
(whether absolute, accrued, conditional or otherwise), operations, or results of operations of the Borrower, its subsidiaries and the assets and businesses to be contributed to the Borrower pursuant to the Transactions, taken as a whole;
provided, however, that a Closing Date Material Adverse Effect shall not include any effect on the business, condition (financial or otherwise), properties, assets, liabilities, obligations (whether absolute, accrued, conditional or
otherwise), operations or results of operations of the Borrower, its subsidiaries and the assets and businesses to be contributed to the Borrower pursuant to the Transactions to the extent arising out of or attributable to (a) any decrease in
the market price of CenterPoint Energy’s or OGE Energy Corp.’s publicly traded equity securities (but not any change or effect underlying such decrease to the extent such change or effect would otherwise contribute to a Closing Date
Material Adverse Effect), (b) changes in the general 

  
 2 








 
state of the industries in which the CNP Midstream Entities and Enogex Entities (each as defined in the Master Formation Agreement referred to in the Transaction Description) operate to the
extent that such changes would have the same general effect on companies engaged in such industries, (c) changes in general economic conditions (including changes in commodity prices or interest rates), financial or securities markets or
political conditions, in each case to the extent that such changes would have the same general effect on companies engaged in the same lines of business as those conducted by the CNP Midstream Entities and the Enogex Entities, (d) the
negotiation, announcement or proposed consummation of the Transactions, including the loss or departure of officers or other employees of any of the CNP Midstream Entities and the Enogex Entities or any adverse change in customer, distributor,
supplier or similar relationships resulting therefrom, (e) changes in United States generally accepted accounting principles or the interpretation thereof or changes in applicable law or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, (f) acts
of terrorism, war, sabotage or insurrection not directly damaging or impacting the CNP Midstream Entities and the Enogex Entities, to the extent that such acts have the same general effect on companies engaged in the same lines of business as those
conducted by the CNP Midstream Entities and the Enogex Entities, (g) the failure to take any action as a result of any restrictions or prohibitions set forth in Section 6.1 of the Master Formation Agreement (as defined on Exhibit A
attached hereto) with respect to which the other parties thereto refused, following the subject party’s request, to provide a waiver in a timely manner or at all, (h) compliance with the terms of, or the taking of any action required by,
the Master Formation Agreement, (i) the downgrade in rating of any debt or debt securities of CenterPoint Energy, CERC, OGE Energy Corp. (“OGE”) or Enogex, (j) any legal proceedings arising out of or related to the Master
Formation Agreement or any of the Transactions or (k) the failure by the CNP Midstream Entities and the Enogex Entities to meet any internal or published industry analyst projections or forecasts or estimates of revenues or earnings for any
period (it being understood and agreed that the facts and circumstances that may have given rise or contributed to such failure that are not otherwise excluded from the definition of a Closing Date Material Adverse Effect may be taken into account
in determining whether there has been a Closing Date Material Adverse Effect). 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment
Letter, the Fee Letters (as defined below), the Operative Documents or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, (i) the only representations and warranties the accuracy of
which shall be a condition to availability of the Facility on the Closing Date shall be the Specified Representations (as defined below) in the Operative Documents and (ii) the terms of the Operative Documents shall be in a form such that they
do not impair availability of the Facility on the Closing Date if the conditions specified in the immediately preceding paragraph are satisfied. The only conditions to funding of the Facility on the Closing Date are set forth in the immediately
preceding paragraph, and upon satisfaction (or waiver by the Initial Lenders) of such conditions, the initial funding of the Facility shall occur. For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means the representations and
warranties of the Borrower set forth in the Operative Documents relating to corporate or other organizational existence; organizational power and authority (as to execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Documents); due authorization,
execution and delivery of the Operative Documents; enforceability of the Operative Documents; solvency as of the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Transactions to occur on the Closing Date) of the Borrower and its subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis; execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Documents not violating applicable law, charter documents and existing material agreements; OFAC and Patriot Act; Federal Reserve margin regulations; and Investment Company
Act. This paragraph, and the provisions herein, shall be referred to as the “Certain Funds Provision”. 
 As
used herein, “SEC Reports” means, collectively, (i) the Annual Report on Form 10-K of OGE, the Annual Report on Form 10-K of CenterPoint Energy and the Annual Report on Form 10-K of CERC, in each case, for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2012, and (ii) the Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by OGE, the Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by CenterPoint Energy and the Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by CERC, in each case, after the Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 for such company and prior to the date hereof.

 Section 2. Commitment Termination; Survival of Obligations. Each
Commitment Party’s commitment and other obligations set forth in this Commitment Letter will terminate on the earlier of (a) the occurrence of the Closing Date and the funding of the Facility, and (b) December 31, 2013, provided,
that if on December 31, 2013 the only condition under the Master Formation Agreement (as defined on Exhibit A) not satisfied or waived is the condition set forth in Section 7.1(a) of the Master Formation Agreement, then the commitments and
other obligations of the Commitment Parties set forth in this Commitment Letter will terminate on February 28, 2014. In addition, the Companies, acting together, may terminate the commitments set forth in this Commitment Letter at any time in
whole or in part upon written notice to the Commitment Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Sections 4 through 13 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of whether any Operative Documents shall be executed and
delivered and notwithstanding the termination of this Commitment Letter or any commitment or undertaking of the Commitment Parties hereunder, provided that (i) the provisions of Sections 4 and 9 shall not survive if the commitments and
undertakings of the Commitment Parties are effectively terminated in full prior to the effectiveness and funding of the Facility and (ii) if the Facility closes and the Operative Documents are executed and delivered, (A) the provisions of
Sections 4 and 9 shall survive only until the date a Successful Syndication is achieved and (B) the provisions under Sections 6 and 7 and the second paragraph of Section 8 shall be superseded and deemed replaced by the terms of the
Operative Documents governing such matters (solely to the extent such provisions are set forth therein). 
 Section 3.
Titles and Roles. Citi will act as the sole administrative agent for the Facility, and CGMI and UBS Securities will act as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners for the Facility. It is understood and agreed that Citi will have
“left” placement in all marketing materials and other documentation used in connection with the Facility. No additional agents, co-agents or arrangers will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (except as set
forth in this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letters) will be paid to any Lender in order to obtain its commitment to participate in the Facility, without the consent of the Initial Commitment Parties. 

Section 4. Syndication. Each Initial Commitment Party reserves the right, before or after the execution of the
Operative Documents, to syndicate all or a portion of the Facility (including all or part of such Initial Commitment Party’s commitment) to one or more other financial institutions listed on the list distributed by us to you on the date hereof
(the “Approved Lenders”) and any other financial institutions subject to your reasonable mutual consent, which financial institutions will become parties to the Operative Documents pursuant to a syndication to be managed by the
Initial Commitment Parties in consultation with you (such financial institutions becoming parties to the Operative Documents, including the Initial Lenders, being collectively referred to herein as the “Lenders”); provided
that, notwithstanding each Initial Commitment Party’s right to syndicate the Facility and receive commitments with respect thereto, until the Closing Date, (a) no Initial Commitment Party shall be relieved, released or novated from its
obligations hereunder with respect to its original commitment (including such Initial Commitment Party’s obligation to fund the Facility on the Closing Date in an amount equal to such original commitment) in connection with any syndication,
assignment or participation of the Facility, (b) no assignment or novation shall become effective with respect to all or any portion of any Initial Commitment Party’s commitments in respect of the Facility, and (c) unless you
collectively otherwise agree in writing, each Initial Commitment Party shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitment in respect of the Facility, including all rights with respect to consents,
modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, in each case, except to the extent any other Lender to which a portion of the Facility has been syndicated has been joined to this Commitment Letter as an additional “Commitment Party”
pursuant to a Joinder Agreement. The commitment of the Initial Commitment Parties shall be ratably reduced dollar-for-dollar by the amount of the commitment of each Lender that has been joined to this Commitment Letter as an additional
“Commitment Party” by the execution of a Joinder Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, on and after the Closing Date, any Lender may assign its commitments in respect of the Facility in accordance with the assignment provisions set forth
in the Operative Documents (which shall be consistent with the “Assignments and Participations” section of the Term Sheet). 

  
 4 








 Subject to the preceding paragraph, the Initial Commitment Parties will manage all aspects
of the syndication in consultation with each of you, including the timing of all offers to potential Lenders, the determination of the amounts offered to potential Lenders, the acceptance of commitments of the Lenders, the assignment of any titles
and the compensation to be provided to the Lenders. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (but without
limiting your obligations to assist with the Initial Commitment Parties’ syndication efforts as set forth herein), it is understood that the Initial Lenders’ commitments hereunder are not conditioned upon the syndication of, or receipt of
commitments in respect of, the Facility or on the obtaining of ratings for the Facility, and in no event shall the commencement or successful completion of syndication of the Facility or the obtaining of ratings for the Facility constitute a
condition to the availability of the Facility on the Closing Date. 
 Each Company will take all actions as any Initial
Commitment Party may reasonably request to assist the Initial Commitment Parties in forming a syndicate for the Facility reasonably acceptable to the Initial Commitment Parties and to the Companies, which acceptance by the Companies will be deemed
to be given for any Approved Lender. Each Company’s assistance in forming such a syndicate will include, without limitation, (a) making senior management and representatives of such Company and the Borrower available to participate in
information meetings with potential Lenders and rating agencies at such times and places as any Initial Commitment Party may reasonably request; (b) using such Company’s commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication
efforts benefit from such Company’s existing lending relationships; (c) assisting (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its affiliates and advisors to assist) in the preparation of a confidential information
memorandum for the Facility and other marketing and rating agency materials to be used in connection with the syndication of the Facility; and (d) subject to Section 9, promptly providing the Initial Commitment Parties with all other
information reasonably deemed necessary by any of them to successfully complete the syndication of the Facility (it being understood, however, that the only financial statements that shall be required to be provided to the Initial Commitment Parties
in connection with the syndication of the Facility shall be those required to be delivered pursuant to the Term Sheet). The obligations of each Company to assist with the syndication of the Facility shall terminate upon the completion of a
Successful Syndication (as defined in the Term Loan Arrangers’ Fee Letter referred to below) or sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, whichever occurs first. 
 Each Company acknowledges that (a) the Initial Commitment Parties may make available any Information and Projections (each as defined in Section 9) (collectively, the “Borrower
Materials”) to potential Lenders on a confidential basis by posting the Borrower Materials on DebtDomain or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of the potential Lenders may be
“public side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). Each Company agrees that (i) at the request
of the Initial Commitment Parties, it will assist us in preparing a version of the information package and presentation to be provided to potential Lenders that does not contain material non-public information concerning the Companies, the Borrower
or any securities of any thereof for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws; (ii) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders will be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at
a minimum, will mean that the word “PUBLIC” will appear prominently on the first page thereof; (iii) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” each Company will be deemed to have authorized the Initial Commitment Parties and
the proposed Lenders to, among other things, treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although they may be confidential or proprietary) with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United
States federal and state securities laws; (iv) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public


  
 5 








 
Lender,” and (v) the Initial Commitment Parties will be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion
of the Platform not designated “Public Lender.” Each of the Initial Commitment Parties hereby agrees that it shall obtain from each Lender or prospective Lender to which it disseminates any non-public or confidential information regarding
the Companies, their respective affiliates or the Borrower, an agreement (which agreement may be deemed to be made by the acceptance by such Lender or prospective Lender of the Confidential Information Memorandum) to treat such information as
confidential pursuant to the terms of the Special Notice and the Notice and Undertaking set forth in the Confidential Information Memorandum prepared for the Facility. 
 To ensure an effective syndication of the Facility, each Company agrees that, until the earliest of (x) 60 days after the Closing Date, (y) completion of a Successful Syndication and
(z) termination of this Commitment Letter prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its subsidiaries to, syndicate or issue, attempt to syndicate or issue, announce or authorize the announcement of the
syndication or issuance of, or engage in discussions concerning the syndication or issuance of, any debt facility or debt security of the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries in the syndicated bank loan market (including any renewals thereof) without
the prior written consent of the Initial Commitment Parties, other than the $1,400,000,000 five-year revolving credit facility referred to in that certain commitment letter dated as of the date hereof among the Companies and the Initial Commitment
Parties (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). 
 Section 5. Fees. In addition to the fees
described in the Term Sheet, each Company will pay (or cause to be paid) the non-refundable fees set forth in (a) the Term Loan Arrangers’ Fee Letter dated the date hereof (the “Term Loan Arrangers’ Fee Letter”) among
the Companies and the Initial Commitment Parties, (b) the Term Loan Administrative Agent Fee Letter dated the date hereof (the “Term Loan Administrative Agent Fee Letter”) among the Companies and Citi, and (c) the Term
Loan Administrative Agent Fee Letter dated the date hereof (together with the Term Loan Arrangers’ Fee Letter and the Term Loan Administrative Agent Fee Letter, the “Fee Letters”) between CenterPoint Energy and Citi, in each
case if and to the extent payable by such Company thereunder. 
 Section 6. Indemnification. You, severally
and not jointly, agree to indemnify and hold harmless (in each case, in accordance with your Percentage (as defined below)), each of the Commitment Parties and their respective affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees,
advisors, agents and representatives (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which
shall be limited to a single firm of counsel for all Indemnified Parties, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, a single firm of local or regulatory counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction and a single firm of special counsel for each
relevant specialty, in each case for all Indemnified Parties, taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest (as reasonably identified by an Indemnified Party) where the Indemnified Party affected by such
conflict informs you of such conflict, one additional firm of counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the affected Indemnified Parties similarly situated, taken as a whole) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified
Party (including without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or the preparation of a defense in connection therewith), in each case, arising out of or in connection with or by reason of this Commitment Letter,
the Fee Letters or the Operative Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Facility, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final,
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, (ii) a material breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations
under this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letters, or (iii) claims of one or more Indemnified Parties against another Indemnified Party (other than claims against the Agent or the joint lead arrangers in their capacities as such) and not
involving any act or omission of the Companies, the Borrower or any subsidiaries or affiliates of any of the foregoing (or any of such person’s officers, 

  
 6 








 
directors, employees, advisors, agents or representatives). In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity will
be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Company, the Borrower, any of their respective directors, security holders or creditors, an Indemnified Party or any other person or an Indemnified Party is
otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. 
 No Indemnified Party will
have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to any Company, the Borrower or any of their affiliates or any of their respective security holders or creditors for or in connection with the transactions contemplated
hereby, except to the extent such liability is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party,
(ii) a material breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letters, or (iii) claims of one or more Indemnified Parties against another Indemnified Party (other than claims against the Agent
or the joint lead arrangers in their capacities as such) and not involving any act or omission of the Companies, the Borrower or any subsidiaries or affiliates of any of the foregoing (or any of such person’s officers, directors, employees,
advisors, agents or representatives). No party hereto nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, advisors, agents, representatives or controlling persons shall be liable to any other party hereto (or its
affiliates, officers, directors, employees, advisors, agents, representatives or controlling persons) on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including without limitation, any loss of profits,
business or anticipated savings) in connection with this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters or the Facility; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit your indemnification obligations set forth in the immediately preceding
paragraph, including your obligation to indemnify Indemnified Parties for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages awarded against an Indemnified Party. 
 Each Company acknowledges that information and other materials relative to the Facility and the transactions contemplated hereby may be transmitted through the Platform. No Indemnified Party will be
liable to any Company, the Borrower or any of their affiliates or any of their respective security holders or creditors for any damages arising from the use by unauthorized persons of information or other materials sent through the Platform that are
intercepted by such persons, except to the extent such damages are incurred by reason of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of an Indemnified Party, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction. 
 Section 7. Costs and Expenses. Each Company, severally and not jointly, agrees to pay (or
cause to be paid), or reimburse the Commitment Parties (in each case, in accordance with such Company’s Percentage (as defined below)) for, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of
Bracewell & Giuliani LLP, counsel to Citi in its capacity as administrative agent and an arranger for the Facility, and no other counsel of any other Lender or Commitment Party) incurred by any of them (whether incurred before or after the
date hereof) in connection with the Facility and the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters and the Operative Documents, regardless of whether any of the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated. Such amounts shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the Closing Date and (ii) five business days following the termination of this Commitment Letter as provided below. Each Company also, severally and not jointly, agrees to pay
(or cause to be paid) (in accordance with such Company’s Percentage) all costs and expenses of the Commitment Parties (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which shall be limited to a single firm of
counsel for all Commitment Parties, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, a single firm of local or regulatory counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction and a single firm of special counsel for each relevant specialty, in each case for all
Commitment Parties, taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest (as reasonably identified by an Indemnified Party), where the Commitment Party affected by such conflict informs you of such conflict, one
additional firm of counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the affected Commitment Parties similarly situated, taken as a whole) incurred in connection with the enforcement of any of their respective rights and remedies under this Commitment
Letter or the Fee Letters.

 As used herein, “Percentage” shall mean, with respect to CenterPoint
Energy, 50% and, with respect to Enogex, 50%. 
 Section 8. Confidentiality. By accepting delivery of the Fee
Letters and this Commitment Letter, each Company agrees that each of the Fee Letters and, prior to your acceptance hereof, this Commitment Letter are for your confidential use only and that neither the existence nor the terms of the Fee Letters and
this Commitment Letter will be disclosed by you to any person other than the Borrower and your and the Borrower’s respective affiliates and your and their respective officers, directors, employees, accountants, attorneys, other advisors, agents
and representatives (the “Company Representatives”), and then only on a confidential and “need to know” basis in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that (i) you may file a copy of

in the Fee Letters to rating agencies in connection with obtaining ratings for the Borrower and the Facility, provided that such rating agencies are informed of the confidential nature of such information and of their obligation to keep such

persons other than, to the extent prohibited hereby, you, your affiliates or any of your or their respective officers, directors, employees, advisors, agents or representatives, (v) you may make such public disclosures of the terms and
conditions hereof and of the Fee Letters as you are required by law or regulation to make or as may be requested or required by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over you (in which case you shall (x) promptly notify the Initial
Commitment Parties in advance of disclosure, to the extent permitted by law and to the extent practicable, and (y) so furnish only that portion of such information which you are legally required to disclose), (vi) you may make such public
disclosures of the terms and conditions hereof and of the Fee Letters if you are legally compelled to do so in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding (in which case you shall (x) promptly notify the Initial Commitment Parties in

Initial Commitment Parties jointly consent to the proposed disclosure and (ix) you may disclose this Commitment Letter and the contents hereof to prospective additional Commitment Parties who are reasonably acceptable to us as contemplated by
Section 4 hereof. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Commitment Letter, the Commitment Parties hereby confirm that the Companies and the Company Representatives will not be limited from disclosing the U.S. tax treatment or U.S. tax
structure of the Facility. 
 Each of the Commitment Parties agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all Specified Information
(as defined below); provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Commitment Party from disclosing any Specified Information (a) to any other Commitment Party, (b) to prospective Lenders who have been approved by you in accordance
with the terms hereof, (c) to any of its affiliates solely in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (d) to its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors or those of any of its

 8 








 
any governmental authority or any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Commitment Party, (f) in response to any order of any court or other governmental authority having
jurisdiction over such Commitment Party or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any requirement of law or as requested by any self-regulatory body (in which case such Commitment Party shall (i) promptly notify you in advance of disclosure,
to the extent permitted by law and to the extent practicable, and (ii) so furnish only that portion of such information which it is legally required to disclose), (g) if legally compelled to do so in connection with any litigation or
similar proceeding (in which case such Commitment Party shall (i) promptly notify you in advance of disclosure, to the extent permitted by law and to the extent practicable, and (ii) so furnish only that portion of such information which
it is legally required to disclose), (h) to the extent any such information becomes publicly available other than by reason of disclosure by any Commitment Party, its affiliates or any of their respective employees, directors, agents,
attorneys, accountants or other professional advisors in breach of this Commitment Letter, (i) in connection with protecting its rights with respect to this Commitment Letter and the exercise of any remedy under this Commitment Letter or any
loan document related to any of the Facilities or (j) with your joint written consent. The Commitment Parties shall be responsible for any breach of the provisions of this paragraph by any of their affiliates and any of their or their
affiliates’ employees and directors. “Specified Information” means all information that is made available to any Commitment Party by or on behalf of by the Companies, the Borrower or any Company Representatives in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby, other than any such Information that is available to such Commitment Party on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by any Company or any of their respective representatives, excluding any
information from a source which, to such Commitment Party’s knowledge, has been disclosed by such source in breach of the terms hereof. 
 Section 9. Representations and Warranties of the Companies. Each Company represents and warrants that (a) (i) all written information, other than Projections (as defined below),
that has been or will hereafter be made available to any Commitment Party, any Lender or any potential Lender by such Company, the Borrower or any Company Representative of such Company or the Borrower in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby and (ii) all information orally communicated by such Company, the Borrower or any Company Representative of such Company or the Borrower to any Initial Commitment Party or any of their attorneys in due diligence sessions or
to any Commitment Party, any Lender or any potential Lender in formal lender presentations (the “Information”), when taken as a whole after giving effect to all supplements and updates provided thereto, is or will be, when

certain “Midstream JV Ratings Agency Presentation” dated January 31, 2013. You also agree to promptly advise us of all developments materially and adversely affecting the Borrower
or the assets and businesses that are to be contributed to the Borrower pursuant to the Transactions, taken as a whole; it being agreed that such information shall be deemed to have been provided by the Companies as required hereunder by any
Company’s delivery of written notice to the Initial Commitment Parties that such information has been included or disclosed in any periodic or current report filed by such Company (or any of its related filing affiliates) with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. 
 In providing this Commitment Letter and in arranging the Facility, the Initial Commitment Parties
are relying on the accuracy of the Information furnished to them by or on behalf of the Companies, the Borrower or any Company Representatives without independent verification thereof. 

Section 10. No Third Party Reliance, Not a Fiduciary, Etc. The agreements of the Commitment Parties hereunder and of
any Lender that issues a commitment to provide financing under the Facility are made solely for the benefit of you and the Commitment Parties, as applicable, and may not be relied upon or enforced by any other person. Please note that those matters
that are not covered or made clear herein are subject to mutual agreement of the parties. You may not assign or delegate any of your rights or obligations hereunder without the Initial Commitment Parties’ prior written consent. This Commitment
Letter may not be amended or modified, or any provision hereof waived, except by a written agreement signed by all parties hereto. 
 Each Company hereby acknowledges that each of the Commitment Parties is acting pursuant to a contractual relationship on an arm’s length basis, and the parties hereto do not intend that the
Commitment Parties act or be responsible as a fiduciary to it, the Borrower, their management, stockholders, creditors or any other person. Each Company and each Commitment Party hereby expressly disclaims any fiduciary relationship and agrees
they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any transactions entered into between them. Each Company also hereby acknowledges that the Commitment Parties have not advised and are not advising it as to any
legal, accounting, regulatory or tax matters, and that it and the Borrower are consulting their own advisors concerning such matters to the extent it deems appropriate. You also acknowledge that UBS Securities is acting as financial advisor to
OGE in connection with various matters, including the Transactions, and that Citi is acting as financial advisor to CenterPoint Energy in connection with various matters, including the Transactions. 

Each Company understands that each Commitment Party and its affiliates (each Commitment Party, together with its affiliates, being
collectively, a “Group”) are engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses (including investment management, financing, securities trading, corporate and investment banking and research). Members of each Group and
businesses within each Group generally act independently of each other, both for their own account and for the account of clients. Accordingly, there may be situations where parts of a Group and/or their clients either now have or may in the future
have interests, or take actions, that may conflict with a Company’s interests. For example, a Group may, in the ordinary course of business, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other investment businesses for their own account
or on behalf of other clients, including without limitation, trading in or holding long, short or derivative positions in securities, loans or other financial products of a Company or its affiliates or other entities connected with the Facility or
the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 In recognition of the foregoing, each Company agrees that no Group is required to
restrict its activities as a result of this Commitment Letter and that each Group may undertake any business activity without further consultation with or notification to such Company. Neither this Commitment Letter nor the receipt by any Commitment
Party of confidential information nor any other matter will give rise to any fiduciary, equitable or contractual duties (including without limitation, any duty of trust or confidence) that would prevent or restrict a Group from acting on behalf of
other customers or for its own account. 

  
 10 









 
Furthermore, each Company agrees that no Group and no member or business of a Group is under a duty to disclose to it or the Borrower or use on behalf of it or the Borrower any information
whatsoever about or derived from those activities or to account for any revenue or profits obtained in connection with such activities. However, consistent with each Group’s long-standing policy to hold in confidence the affairs of its
customers, and without limiting each Commitment Party’s obligations and rights under Section 8 of this Commitment Letter (and subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 8), no Group will use confidential information obtained from
any Company or the Borrower except in connection with its services to, and its relationship with, such Company and the Borrower. 
 Section 11. Governing Law, Etc. This Commitment Letter will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York. This Commitment Letter and the Fee
Letters set forth the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Facility and supersede all prior communications, written or oral, with respect thereto. This Commitment Letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which, when so executed, will be deemed to be an original and all of which, taken together, will constitute one and the same Commitment Letter. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Commitment Letter by facsimile
transmission or other electronic transmission (i.e., PDF) will be as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Commitment Letter. 
 Section 12. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR
OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS COMMITMENT LETTER OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THE ACTIONS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN THE NEGOTIATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF. 

Section 13. Consent to Jurisdiction, Etc. Each Company irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submits to the
exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court located in the City of New York over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Commitment Letter, (ii) accepts for itself and in respect of its property the
jurisdiction of such courts, (iii) waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such courts and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum
and (iv) consents to the service of any process, summons, notice or document in any such suit, action or proceeding by registered mail addressed to such Company at its address specified on the first page of this Commitment Letter. A final
judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding will be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing herein will affect the right of any Commitment Party to serve legal
process in any other manner permitted by law or affect any Commitment Party’s right to bring any suit, action or proceeding against any Company or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions. To the extent that any Company has or
hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its
property, such Company irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Commitment Letter. 

Section 14. Patriot Act Compliance. Each Commitment Party hereby notifies the Companies that pursuant to the
requirements of the USA PATRIOT ACT (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information
includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Commitment Party to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. In that connection, each Commitment Party may also request corporate formation
documents, or other forms of identification, to verify information provided. 
 Please indicate your acceptance of the
provisions hereof by signing the enclosed copy of this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letters and returning them, to Mary O’Black, Bracewell & Giuliani LLP,

days’ written notice to such Lender being removed and the Agent, such removal to be effective at the expiration of such 15 business day notice period.

 Ratings in the above Ratings-Based Pricing Grid are based on the Designated Ratings issued by
Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P”), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Fitch Ratings (“Fitch” and, together with S&P and Moody's, the
“Rating Agencies” and each, a “Rating Agency”). “Designated Rating” means, with respect to any Rating Agency, (i) the rating assigned by such Rating Agency to the Revolving Credit Facility at
any time such a rating is in effect, (ii) if and only if such Rating Agency does not have in effect a rating described in the preceding clause (i), the rating assigned by such Rating Agency to the Facility, (iii) if and only if such Rating
Agency does not have in effect a rating described in the preceding clauses (i) or (ii), the Borrower’s long-term senior unsecured non-credit enhanced debt rating, or (iv) if and only if such Rating Agency does not have in effect a
rating described in the preceding clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), the Borrower’s “company” or “corporate credit” rating (or its equivalent) assigned by such Rating Agency. 

For purposes of the foregoing, (i) if the Designated Ratings are split and all three ratings fall in different levels, the pricing
shall be based upon the level indicated by the middle rating; (ii) if the Designated Ratings are split and two of the ratings fall in the same level (the “Majority Level”) and the third rating is in a different level, the
pricing shall be based upon the Majority Level; (iii) if only two of the three rating agencies issue a Designated Rating, the higher of such ratings shall apply, provided that if 

  
 B-16









 
the higher rating is two or more levels above the lower rating, the rating next below the higher of the two shall apply; (iv) if only one of the three rating agencies issues a Designated
Rating, such rating shall apply; and (v) if the Designated Rating established by S&P, Moody’s or Fitch shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of S&P, Moody’s or Fitch), such change shall be
effective as of the date on which it is first announced by the applicable rating agency. If the rating system of S&P, Moody’s or Fitch shall change, or if any of S&P, Moody’s or Fitch shall cease to be in the business of rating
corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Agent shall negotiate in good faith if necessary to amend this provision to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of Designated Ratings from such rating agencies and, pending the
effectiveness of any such amendment, the applicable commitment fee rate, the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Advances and the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances shall be determined by reference to the Designated Rating of such rating
agency most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation. 
  

	C.	Base Rate Definition 


“Base Rate” means for any period, a fluctuating interest rate per annum as shall be in effect from time to time, which
rate per annum shall be equal at all times to the highest of the following: (a) the rate of interest announced publicly by Citibank, N.A. at its principal office in New York, New York, from time to time, as its prime rate;
(b) 0.5% per annum plus the federal funds rate and (c) the Eurodollar Rate for a one-month interest period that begins on such day (and if such day is not a business day, the immediately preceding business day) plus 1%. 

 

	D.	Eurodollar Rate Definition  

 “Eurodollar Rate” means, with respect to any interest period for any Eurodollar Rate Advance, the rate appearing on the Reuters Reference LIBOR01 page (or on any successor or substitute
page of such service, or any successor to or substitute for such service, providing rate quotations comparable to those currently provided on such page of such service, as determined by the Agent from time to time for purposes of providing
quotations of interest rates applicable to deposits in Dollars in the London interbank market) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the second business day next preceding the first day of such interest period, as the rate for deposits in
Dollars with a maturity comparable to such interest period. In the event that such rate is not available at such time for any reason, then the “Eurodollar Rate” for such interest period shall be the rate at which dollar deposits of
$5,000,000 and for a maturity comparable to such interest period are offered by the principal London office of the Agent in immediately available funds in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the second business
day next preceding the first day of such interest period.
