WHEREAS, the Partnership has duly authorized and desires to cause to be established pursuant to the Base Indenture and this Tenth Supplemental Indenture three new series of Debt Securities designated as follows: the "4.550% Senior Notes due 2031" (the "<u>2031 Notes</u>"), the "5.350% Senior Notes due 2036" (the "<u>2036 Notes</u>") and the "6.300% Senior Notes due 2056" (the "<u>2056 Notes</u>" and, together with the 2031 Notes and the 2036 Notes, the "<u>Notes</u>");

WHEREAS, Sections 2.01 and 2.03 of the Base Indenture permit the execution of indentures supplemental thereto to establish the form and terms of Debt Securities of any series;

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Base Indenture, the Partnership has requested that the Trustee join in the execution of this Tenth Supplemental Indenture to establish the form and terms of the Notes; and

"<u>Treasury Rate</u>" means, with respect to any Redemption Date with respect to each series of the Notes, the yield determined by the Partnership in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Partnership after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the notice of the Redemption Date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as "Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15" (or any successor designation or publication) ("<u>H.15</u>") under the caption "U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal" (or any successor caption or heading) ("<u>H.15 TCM</u>"). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Partnership shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period (the "<u>Remaining Life</u>") from the Redemption Date to the 2031 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2031 Notes), the 2036 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2036 Notes) or the 2056 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the

------

2056 Notes); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the 2031 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2031 Notes), the 2036 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2036 Notes) or the 2056 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2056 Notes) on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the Redemption Date.

If on the third Business Day preceding the notice of the Redemption Date, H.15 TCM or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, the Partnership shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the notice of such Redemption Date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the 2031 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2031 Notes), the 2036 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2036 Notes) or the 2056 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2056 Notes), as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the 2031 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2031 Notes), the 2036 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2036 Notes) or the 2056 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2056 Notes), but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the 2031 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2031 Notes), the 2036 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2036 Notes) or the 2056 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2056 Notes), one with a maturity date preceding the 2031 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2031 Notes), the 2036 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2036 Notes) or the 2056 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2056 Notes), and one with a maturity date following the 2031 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2031 Notes), the 2036 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2036 Notes) or the 2056 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2056 Notes), the Partnership shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the 2031 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2031 Notes), the 2036 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2036 Notes) or the 2056 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2056 Notes). If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the 2031 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2031 Notes), the 2036 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2036 Notes) or the 2056 Notes Par Call Date (in the case of the 2056 Notes) or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Partnership shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

The Debt Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds (if any) and may otherwise vary as provided in the Indenture. This Security is one of a series designated as the 4.550% Senior Notes due 2031 of the Partnership, in an initial aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000,000 (the "<u>Securities</u>").

The Partnership shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy laws) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) and on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the same rate per annum, in each case to the extent lawful.

2. *Method of Payment*.

The Partnership shall pay interest on the Securities (except Defaulted Interest) to the persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for ("<u>Defaulted Interest</u>") may be paid to the persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, or in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may then be listed if such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee, as more fully provided in the Indenture. The Partnership shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of a Global Security (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depositary. Payments in respect of Securities in definitive form (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made at the office or agency of the Partnership maintained for such purpose within The City of New York,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming the 2031 Notes matured on the 2031 Notes Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the Redemption Date, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) 100% of the principal amount of the 2031 Notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

A-1-5

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) On or after the 2031 Notes Par Call Date, the Partnership may redeem the 2031 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2031 Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The actual Redemption Price, calculated as provided above, shall be calculated and certified to the Trustee by the Partnership. The Partnership's actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

*6. No Sinking Fund; Mandatory Redemption*.

The Partnership is not required to make any mandatory redemption, mandatory repurchase or sinking fund payments with respect to the Securities or to repurchase the Securities at the option of Holders.

*7. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange*.

The Securities are to be issued in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder may register the transfer of, or exchange, Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture.

8. *Person Deemed Owners*.

The registered Holder of a Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

9. *Amendment; Supplement; Waiver*.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended or supplemented, and any existing Event of Default or compliance with any provision may be waived, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding notes of the affected series. Without consent of any Holder of a Security, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture to, among other things, cure any ambiguity or omission, to correct any defect or inconsistency, or to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Security. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Security and any Securities which may be issued in exchange or substitution herefor, regardless of whether any notation thereof is made upon this Security or such other Securities.

A-1-6

------

10. *Defaults and Remedies*.

Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default that will result in the principal amount of the Securities, together with premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, becoming due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default. If any other Event of Default with respect to the Securities occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may declare the principal amount of all the Securities, together with premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, if at any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Trustee, may rescind such declaration and annul its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and if all existing Events of Default with respect to the Securities, other than the nonpayment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest which has become due solely by such declaration acceleration, shall have been cured or shall have been waived. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Holders of Securities may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity or security satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power.

11. *Trustee Dealings with Partnership*.

The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Partnership or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Partnership or its Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee.

12. *Authentication*.

This Security shall not be valid until the Trustee signs the certificate of authentication hereon.

13. *Abbreviations and Defined Terms*.

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder of a Security or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (tenant in common), TEN ENT (tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (Custodian), and U/G/M/A (Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

14. *CUSIP Numbers*.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Partnership has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Securities as a convenience to the Holders of the Securities. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such number as printed on the Securities and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

15. *Absolute Obligation*.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, if at any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Trustee, may rescind such declaration and annul its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and if all existing Events of Default with respect to the Securities, other than the nonpayment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest which has become due solely by such declaration acceleration, shall have been cured or shall have been waived. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Holders of Securities may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity or security satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power.

11. *Trustee Dealings with Partnership*.

The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Partnership or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Partnership or its Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee.

The Debt Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds (if any) and may otherwise vary as provided in the Indenture. This Security is one of a series designated as the 6.300% Senior Notes due 2056 of the Partnership, in an initial aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000,000 (the "<u>Securities</u>").

The Partnership shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy laws) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) and on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the same rate per annum, in each case to the extent lawful.

The Partnership shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of a Global Security (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depositary. Payments in respect of Securities in definitive form (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made at the office or agency of the Partnership maintained for such purpose within The City of New York,

Re: <u>Registration Statement No.</u> <u>333-279982</u>

To the addressee set forth above:

We have acted as special counsel to Energy Transfer LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "***Partnership***"), in connection with the issuance by the Partnership of $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.550% Senior Notes due 2031 (the "***2031 Notes***"), $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 5.350% Senior Notes due 2036 (the "***2036 Notes***") and $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 6.300% Senior Notes due 2056 (the "***2056 Notes***" and, together with the 2031 Notes and the 2036 Notes, the "***Notes***"), under the Base Indenture dated as of December 14, 2022 (the "***Base Indenture***"), by and between the Partnership and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (successor to U.S. Bank National Association), as trustee (the "***Trustee***"), as supplemented by the Tenth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of January 27, 2026, setting forth the terms of the Notes (the "***Tenth Supplemental Indenture***" and, the Base Indenture as so supplemented, the "***Indenture***"), and pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "***Act***"), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "***Commission***") on June 5, 2024 (Registration No. 333-279982) (the "***Registration Statement***"). This opinion is being furnished in connection with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act, and no opinion is expressed herein as to any matter pertaining to the contents of the Registration Statement or related prospectus, other than as expressly stated herein with respect to the issuance of the Notes.

As such counsel, we have examined such matters of fact and questions of law as we have considered appropriate for purposes of this letter. With your consent, we have relied upon certificates and other assurances of officers of the general partner of the Partnership and others as to factual matters without having independently verified such factual matters. We are opining herein as to the internal laws of the State of New York and the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, and we express no opinion with respect to the applicability thereto, or the effect thereon, of the laws of any other jurisdiction or, in the case of Delaware, any other laws, or as to any matters of municipal law or the laws of any local agencies within any state.

Subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof, when the Notes have been duly executed, issued, and authenticated in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and delivered against payment therefor in the circumstances contemplated by the underwriting agreement, dated January 12, 2026, among the Partnership and BofA Securities, Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Mizuho Securities USA LLC, MUFG Securities Americas Inc. and SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc. as representatives of the several underwriters named therein, the Notes will have been duly authorized by all necessary limited partnership action of the Partnership, and will be legally valid and binding obligations of the Partnership, enforceable against the Partnership in accordance with their terms.

Our opinion is subject to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, preference, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other
similar laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) (a) the effect of general principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law
(including the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief), (b) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and (c) the discretion of the court before which a proceeding is brought; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the invalidity under certain circumstances under law or court decisions of provisions providing for the
indemnification of or contribution to a party with respect to a liability where such indemnification or contribution is contrary to public policy.

We express no opinion as to (a) any provision for liquidated damages, default interest, late charges, monetary penalties, make-whole premiums or other economic remedies to the extent such provisions are deemed to constitute a penalty, (b) consents to, or restrictions upon, governing law, jurisdiction, venue, service of process, arbitration, remedies or judicial relief, (c) waivers of rights or defenses contained in Section 4.06 of the Base Indenture and waivers of broadly or vaguely stated rights, (d) any provision requiring the payment of attorneys' fees, where such payment is contrary to law or public policy, (e) advance waivers of claims, defenses, rights granted by law, or notice, opportunity for hearing, evidentiary requirements, statutes of limitation, trial by jury or at law, or other procedural rights, (f) covenants not to compete, (g) provisions for exclusivity, election or cumulation of rights or remedies, (h) provisions authorizing or validating conclusive or discretionary determinations, (i) grants of setoff rights, (j) provisions to the effect that a guarantor is liable as a primary obligor, and not as a surety and provisions purporting to waive modifications of any guaranteed obligation to the extent such modification constitutes a novation, (k) proxies, powers and trusts, (l) provisions prohibiting, restricting, or requiring consent to assignment or transfer of any right or property, (m) provisions permitting, upon acceleration of any indebtedness (including the Notes), collection of that portion of the stated principal amount thereof which might be determined to constitute unearned interest thereon and (n) the severability, if invalid, of provisions to the foregoing effect.

With your consent, we have assumed (a) that the Indenture and the Notes (collectively, the "***Documents***") have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the parties thereto other than the Partnership, (b) that the Documents constitute legally valid and binding obligations of the parties thereto other than the Partnership, enforceable against each of them in accordance with their respective terms and (c) that the status of the Documents as legally valid and binding obligations of the parties is not affected by any (i) breaches of, or defaults under, agreements or instruments, (ii) violations of statutes, rules, regulations or court or governmental orders or (iii) failures to obtain required consents, approvals or authorizations from, or make required registrations, declarations or filings with, governmental authorities.

This opinion is for your benefit in connection with the Registration Statement and may be relied upon by you and by persons entitled to rely upon it pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Act. We consent to your filing this opinion as an exhibit to the Partnership's Form 8-K dated January 27, 2026, and to the reference to our firm contained in the Prospectus under the heading "Legal." In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
