ARTICLE III
  THE NOTES    
    

        Section 3.01.    Form.    The Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Securities as
Series A Notes, and the Series A Notes and Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be 

2

 

substantially
in the form of Exhibit A hereto, the terms of which are incorporated in and made a part of this Supplemental Indenture, and the Issuer and the Trustee, by their execution and
delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. The Series A Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities will be resold
initially only to (a) Qualified Institutional Buyers (as such term is defined in Section 144A of the Securities Act) ("QIBs") in reliance on Rule 144A of the Securities Act
("Rule 144A") and (b) Persons other than U.S. Persons (as defined under Regulation S under the Securities Act ("Regulation S")) ("U.S. Persons") in reliance on
Regulation S. Thereafter, the Series A Notes may be transferred to, among others, QIBs, purchasers in reliance upon Regulation S and institutional "accredited investors" (as
defined in subparagraph (a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501 of the Securities Act ("IAIs")) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Rule 501 of the Securities Act,
provided that any Series A Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities that are transferred to IAIs who are not QIBs shall be issued only in definitive form. Pursuant to the terms of an
Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, upon consummation of the Exchange Offer contemplated thereby, the Series A Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities will be exchanged by the
Holders for Series B Notes to be issued by the Issuer in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof. The Series B Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global
Securities, and the Series B Notes and the Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. 

        Section 3.02.    Issuance of Additional Notes.    The Issuer may, from time to time, issue an unlimited amount
of additional Series A Notes ("Additional Notes") under the Indenture, which shall be issued in the same form as the Series A Notes issued on the Issue Date and which shall have
identical terms as the Series A Notes issued on the Issue Date other than with respect to the issue date, issue price and first payment of interest. The Series A Notes issued on the
Issue Date shall be limited in aggregate principal amount to $200,000,000. The Series A Notes issued on the Issue Date and any Additional Notes subsequently issued, together with any
Series B Notes issued in exchange therefor pursuant to an Exchange Offer, shall be treated as a single series for purposes of giving of notices, consents, waivers, amendments and taking any
other action permitted under the Indenture and for purposes of interest accrual and redemptions. 

        Section 3.03.    Transfer of Transfer Restricted Securities.    

        (a)   When
Notes are presented to the Registrar with the request to register the transfer of such Notes or exchange such Notes for an equal principal amount of Notes of other
authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange in accordance with Article II of the Original Indenture. In addition, in the case of Series A
Notes that are Transfer Restricted Securities, such request to register the transfer or make the exchange shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable,
upon which the Registrar may conclusively rely: 

        (1)   if
such Transfer Restricted Securities are being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification
from such Holder to that effect in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto; or 

        (2)   if
such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred (i) to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to
an exemption from registration in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act (and based upon an opinion of counsel if the Issuer or the Trustee so requests) or (iii) pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto; or 

        (3)   if
such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred to an IAI within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities
Act pursuant to a private placement exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (and based upon an opinion of 

3

 

counsel
if the Issuer or the Trustee so requests), a certification to that effect from such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto and a certification from the applicable
transferee in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto; or 

        (4)   if
such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred to Persons other than U.S. Persons in reliance on Regulation S, a certification to that effect from
such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto; or 

        (5)   if
such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred in reliance on another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (and based upon an
opinion of counsel if the Issuer or the Trustee so requests), a certification to that effect from such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto. 

        (b)   Upon
any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security (including any Transfer Restricted Security represented by a Global Security) pursuant to Rule 144
under the Securities Act or an effective registration statement under the Securities Act: 

        (1)   in
the case of any Transfer Restricted Security that is in the form of a definitive Note, the Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Transfer
Restricted Security for a definitive Note that does not bear the legend set forth in Section 3.04(a) below and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Security; and 

        (2)   in
the case of any Transfer Restricted Security represented by a Global Security, such Transfer Restricted Security shall not be required to bear the legend set forth in
Section 3.04(a) below if all other interests in such Global Security have been or are concurrently being sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, upon consummation of an Exchange Offer, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an authentication order in accordance with Section 2.05 of the Original
Indenture, the Trustee shall authenticate Series B Notes in exchange for Series A Notes accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer, which Series B Notes shall not bear the legend
set forth in Section 3.04(a) below, and the Registrar shall rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Notes, in each case unless the Holder of such Series A Notes is either
(A) a Person participating in the distribution of the Series A Notes or (B) a Person who is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Issuer.
The Issuer shall identify to the Trustee such Holders of the Notes in a written certification signed by an officer of the Issuer and, absent certification from the Issuer to such effect, the Trustee
shall assume that there are no such Holders. 

        (c)   Upon
any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security in definitive form initially resold to Persons other than U.S. Persons in reliance upon Regulation S
pursuant to (i) Regulation S following 40 consecutive days beginning on and including the later of the day on which such Transfer Restricted Security was offered to Persons other than
"distributors" (as such term is defined in Regulation S) and the date of the closing of the original offering, or (ii) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, the
Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Security for a definitive Note that does not bear the legend referred to in Section 3.04(b) below and rescind any
restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Security. 

        Section 3.04.    Restrictive Legends.    

        (a)   Except
as provided in Section 3.03 hereof, prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, each security certificate evidencing the Notes shall bear a legend in
substantially the following form:

TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON RULE 144A, (3) INSIDE THE UNITED STATES TO AN INSTITUTIONAL "ACCREDITED INVESTOR" (AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(A)(1), (2), (3) OR (7) UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT), (4) TO A NON-"U.S. PERSON" IN AN "OFFSHORE TRANSACTION" (AS SUCH TERMS ARE DEFINED IN REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) IN ACCORDANCE WITH REGULATION S UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT, (5) PURSUANT TO ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, INCLUDING THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT, IF AVAILABLE, OR (6) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, SUBJECT IN EACH OF THE FOREGOING CASES TO ANY REQUIREMENT OF LAW THAT THE DISPOSITION OF ITS
PROPERTY OR THE PROPERTY OF SUCH INVESTOR ACCOUNT OR ACCOUNTS BE AT ALL TIMES WITHIN ITS OR THEIR CONTROL, AND SUBJECT TO THE RIGHT OF THE ISSUER OR THE TRUSTEE FOR THE SECURITIES PRIOR TO ANY SUCH
SALE, PLEDGE OR OTHER TRANSFER TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATIONS AND/OR OTHER INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO EACH OF THEM. THIS LEGEND WILL BE REMOVED UPON REQUEST OF THE
HOLDER ON OR AFTER THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE. 

        (b)   Each
security certificate evidencing the Global Securities shall bear a legend substantially in the form set forth in Section 2.15(a) of the Original Indenture.

be included on Transfer Restricted Securities only. 

        Capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 

        1.    Interest; Additional Interest.    Enbridge Energy Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the
"Partnership" or the "Issuer"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 4.75% per annum from                ,
            until maturity. The Issuer shall
pay interest semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each such year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an "Interest
Payment Date"). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if there is no
existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue
from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be                ,
            . The Issuer shall pay interest
(including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the same rate; and it shall pay
interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to
time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 

        2.    Method of Payment.    The Issuer shall pay interest on the Notes (except Defaulted Interest) to the Persons who
are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 15 or November 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and
on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.17 of the Original Indenture with respect to Defaulted Interest, and the Issuer shall pay principal (and premium, if
any) of the Notes upon surrender thereof to the Trustee or a paying agent on or after the Stated Maturity thereof. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the
office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose (which initially is c/o Computershare Trust Company, Wall Street Plaza, 88 Pine Street, 19th Floor, New York, New York 10005), or, at the
option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and  provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately
available funds shall be required with respect to principal of, and interest and premium, if any,
on, (a) each Global Security and (b) all other Notes aggregating at least $1,000,000 in principal amount the Holder of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer
or the paying agent on or prior to the applicable record date. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of
public and private debts. 

        3.    Paying Agent and Registrar.    Initially, SunTrust Bank, the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as paying
agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any paying agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Partnership may act in any such capacity. 

        4.    Indenture.    The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of May 27, 2003 (the "Original
Indenture"), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of the same date (the "Supplemental Indenture" and, together with the Original Indenture, the "Indenture") between the Issuer
and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those 

A-3

 

made
part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and
Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the
Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are the obligation of the Issuer, initially in aggregate principal amount of $200 million. The Issuer may issue an unlimited aggregate
principal amount of Additional Notes under the Indenture. Any such Additional Notes that are actually issued shall be treated as issued and outstanding Notes (and as the same series (with identical
terms other than with respect to the issue date, issue price and first payment of interest) as the initial Note for the purposes indicated in Section 3.02 of the Supplemental Indenture).
Initially, the Notes are not guaranteed, but in the future they may be guaranteed by one or more Subsidiary Guarantors on the conditions and subject to the terms provided in Section 4.13 and
Article XIV of the Indenture. 

        5.    Optional Redemption.    (a) At its option, the Issuer may choose to redeem all or any portion of the
Notes, at once or from time to time. 

        (b)   To
redeem the Notes, the Issuer must pay a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and
(ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to
the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 25 basis
points, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, including Additional Interest, if any, to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date to receive
interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). 

        For
purposes of determining the redemption price, the following definitions shall apply: 

        "Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by the Independent Investment Banker as
having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial
practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed. 

        "Comparable Treasury Price" means, for any Redemption Date, (1) the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such
Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than
four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations. 

        "Independent Investment Banker" means either Citigroup Global Markets Inc. or Banc of America Securities LLC, as specified by the
Partnership, and any successor firm, or if such firm is unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the
Trustee after consultation with the Partnership. 

        "Reference Treasury Dealer" means each of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Banc of America Securities LLC, plus two other dealers
selected by the Trustee that are primary U.S. government securities dealers in New York City and their respective successors; provided, if any of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. or Bank of
America Securities LLC or any primary U.S. government securities dealer selected by the Trustee shall cease to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer, then such other primary U.S. government
securities dealers as may be substituted by the Trustee. 

        "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, for each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by
the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury
Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date. 

A-4

 

        "Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the
immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated "H.15(519)" or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities," for the
maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities
most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the
nearest month) or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week in which the calculation date falls (or in the immediately preceding week if the calculation
date falls on any day prior to the usual publication date for such release) or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the
Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption
Date. The Treasury Rate shall be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date. Any weekly average yields calculated by interpolation or extrapolation will be rounded to the
nearest 1/100th of 1%, with any figure of 1/200th of 1% or above being rounded upward. 

        6.    Mandatory Redemption.    The Issuer shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments
with respect to the Notes or to repurchase them at the option of the Holders. 

        7.    Notice of Redemption.    Notice of redemption shall be mailed at least 30 days but not more than
60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole
multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption and
with respect to which the redemption price has been paid. 

        8.    Denominations, Transfer, Exchange.    The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of
$1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among
other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes or other governmental charges imposed in relation thereto. 

        9.    Persons Deemed Owners.    The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

        10.    Amendment, Supplement and Waiver.    Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended or
supplemented with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the
Indenture relating to the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes. Without the consent of any Holder
of a Note, the Indenture may be amended or supplemented for any of the purposes set forth in Section 9.01 of the Indenture, including to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide
for the assumption of the Issuer's obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation of the Issuer or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer's assets, to add or release
Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights under the Indenture of any Holder of the Notes, to comply with the
requirements of the SEC to permit the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, to evidence or provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture of a successor or separate Trustee, to 

A-5

 

add
to the covenants of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, to secure the Notes or the Guarantee or to establish the form or terms of any other series of Debt Securities. 

        11.    Defaults and Remedies.    Events of Default with respect to the Notes include: (i) default for
30 days in the payment when due of interest on, including any Additional Interest with respect to, the Notes; (ii) default in payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the
Notes when due at Stated
Maturity, upon redemption or otherwise, (iii) failure by the Partnership or any Subsidiary Guarantor for 60 days after notice to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements in
the Indenture relating to the Notes; (iv) default by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries in the payment at the Stated Maturity, after the expiration of any applicable grace period, of
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Debt then outstanding having a principal amount in excess of the greater of $25 million and 2% of total partners' capital in the Partnership,
or acceleration of any Debt having a principal amount in excess of the greater of such amounts so that it becomes due and payable prior to its Stated Maturity and such acceleration is not rescinded
within 30 days after notice; (v) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Guarantee shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be null and void or shall cease to be in full force and
effect or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under the Indenture or its Guarantee and (vi) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect
to the Issuer or, if and so long as the Notes are guaranteed by a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Subsidiary Guarantor. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at
least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from
certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all Outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided
in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or
power. If and so long as the Trustee in good faith so determines, the Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of
Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the
Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes. The Partnership is required to deliver to the Trustee
annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Partnership is required within 30 days after the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a
statement specifying such Default or Event of Default and certain additional information. 

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

        13.    No Recourse Against Others.    The General Partner and its directors, officers, employees, incorporators,
members and stockholders, as such, shall have no liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture or the Guarantee or for any claim based on, in
respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration
for issuance of the Notes. 

        14.    Authentication.    This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or
an authenticating agent. 

        15.    Abbreviations.    Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as:
TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint 

A-6

 

tenants
with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 

        16.    CUSIP and ISIN Numbers.    Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security
Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP and corresponding ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP and corresponding ISIN numbers in notices of redemption
as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on
the other identification numbers placed thereon. 

        17.    Additional Rights of Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities.    In addition to the rights provided to
Holders of Notes under the Indenture, Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities shall have all the rights set forth in the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, including the right to receive
Additional Interest as set forth therein. 

        The
Issuer shall furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to:

Re:
4.75% Series [A/B] Notes due 2013 of Enbridge Energy Partners, L.P. (the "Issuer") 

        This
Certificate relates to $            principal amount of the above captioned Notes held in definitive form (the "Securities")
by                        (the "Transferor"). 

The
Transferor has requested the Trustee by written order to exchange or register the transfer of a Security or Securities. 

        In
connection with such request and in respect of each such Security, the Transferor does hereby certify that the Transferor is familiar with the Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture
relative to the Securities and that the transfer of this Security does not require registration under the Securities Act (as defined below) because:* 

	o
	Such
Security is being acquired for the Transferor's own account without transfer.

	o
	Such
Security is being transferred to a "qualified institutional buyer" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act")), in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

	o
	Such
Security is being transferred (i) in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act (and based on an opinion of
counsel if the Issuer or the Trustee so requests) or (ii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

	o
	Such
Security is being transferred to an institutional "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2),
(3) or (7) under the Securities Act pursuant to a private placement exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (and based on an opinion of counsel if the Issuer
or the Trustee so requests) together with a certification in substantially the form of Exhibit D to the Supplemental Indenture and, to the knowledge of the Transferor, such institutional
accredited investor to whom such Security is to be transferred is not an "affiliate" (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Issuer.

	o
	Such
Security is being transferred in reliance on and in compliance with another exemption from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act (and based on an opinion of counsel if the Issuers so request). 

	*
	Check
appropriate response.

Attn: Corporate Trust Group 

Ladies
and Gentlemen: 

        In
connection with our proposed purchase of $                        aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Series [A/B] Notes due 2013
(the "Securities") of Enbridge Energy
Partners, L.P. (the "Issuer"): 

        1.     We
understand that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or under any other applicable securities
laws, and may not be sold except as permitted in the following sentence. We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing the Securities to offer, sell or
otherwise transfer such Securities prior to the date which is two years after the later of the date of original issue and the last date on which the Issuer or any affiliate of the Issuer was the owner
of such Securities, or any predecessor, thereto (the "Resale Restriction Termination Date") only (a) to the Issuer, (b) pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), (c) for so long as the Securities are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, to a
person we reasonably believe is a qualified institutional buyer under Rule 144A (a "QIB") that purchases for its own account or for the account of a QIB to whom notice is given that the
transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (d) to an institutional "accredited investor" within the meaning of subparagraph (a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501
under the Securities Act (an "Institutional Accredited Investor") that is acquiring the Securities for its own account or for the account of another Institutional Accredited Investor for investment
purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the regulations of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws or
(e) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, subject in each of the foregoing cases to any requirement of law that the disposition of
our property and the property of such investor account or accounts be at all times within our or their control. The foregoing restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction
Termination Date. If any resale or other transfer of the Securities is proposed to be made pursuant to clause (d) above prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall
deliver a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter to the Trustee, which shall provide, among other things, that the transferee is an Institutional Accredited Investor and
that it is acquiring such Securities for investment purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act. We acknowledge that the Issuer and the Trustee reserve the right prior to any
offer, sale or other transfer pursuant to clause (d) or (e) prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date of the Securities to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel,
certifications and/or other information satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee. 

        2.     We
are an Institutional Accredited Investor purchasing for our own account or for the account of another Institutional Accredited Investor.

ARTICLE III
  THE NOTES    
    

        Section 3.01.    Form.    The Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Securities as
Series A Notes, and the Series A Notes and Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be 

2

 

substantially
in the form of Exhibit A hereto, the terms of which are incorporated in and made a part of this Supplemental Indenture, and the Issuer and the Trustee, by their execution and
delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. The Series A Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities will be resold
initially only to (a) Qualified Institutional Buyers (as such term is defined in Section 144A of the Securities Act) ("QIBs") in reliance on Rule 144A of the Securities Act
("Rule 144A") and (b) Persons other than U.S. Persons (as defined under Regulation S under the Securities Act ("Regulation S")) ("U.S. Persons") in reliance on
Regulation S. Thereafter, the Series A Notes may be transferred to, among others, QIBs, purchasers in reliance upon Regulation S and institutional "accredited investors" (as
defined in subparagraph (a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501 of the Securities Act ("IAIs")) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Rule 501 of the Securities Act,
provided that any Series A Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities that are transferred to IAIs who are not QIBs shall be issued only in definitive form. Pursuant to the terms of an
Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, upon consummation of the Exchange Offer contemplated thereby, the Series A Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Securities will be exchanged by the
Holders for Series B Notes to be issued by the Issuer in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof. The Series B Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global
Securities, and the Series B Notes and the Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. 

        Section 3.02.    Issuance of Additional Notes.    The Issuer may, from time to time, issue an unlimited amount
of additional Series A Notes ("Additional Notes") under the Indenture, which shall be issued in the same form as the Series A Notes issued on the Issue Date and which shall have
identical terms as the Series A Notes issued on the Issue Date other than with respect to the issue date, issue price and first payment of interest. The Series A Notes issued on the
Issue Date shall be limited in aggregate principal amount to $200,000,000. The Series A Notes issued on the Issue Date and any Additional Notes subsequently issued, together with any
Series B Notes issued in exchange therefor pursuant to an Exchange Offer, shall be treated as a single series for purposes of giving of notices, consents, waivers, amendments and taking any
other action permitted under the Indenture and for purposes of interest accrual and redemptions. 

        Section 3.03.    Transfer of Transfer Restricted Securities.    

        (a)   When
Notes are presented to the Registrar with the request to register the transfer of such Notes or exchange such Notes for an equal principal amount of Notes of other
authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange in accordance with Article II of the Original Indenture. In addition, in the case of Series A
Notes that are Transfer Restricted Securities, such request to register the transfer or make the exchange shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable,
upon which the Registrar may conclusively rely: 

        (1)   if
such Transfer Restricted Securities are being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification
from such Holder to that effect in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto; or 

        (2)   if
such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred (i) to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to
an exemption from registration in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act (and based upon an opinion of counsel if the Issuer or the Trustee so requests) or (iii) pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto; or 

        (3)   if
such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred to an IAI within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities
Act pursuant to a private placement exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (and based upon an opinion of 

3

 

counsel
if the Issuer or the Trustee so requests), a certification to that effect from such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto and a certification from the applicable
transferee in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto; or 

        (4)   if
such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred to Persons other than U.S. Persons in reliance on Regulation S, a certification to that effect from
such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto; or 

        (5)   if
such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred in reliance on another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (and based upon an
opinion of counsel if the Issuer or the Trustee so requests), a certification to that effect from such Holder in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto. 

        (b)   Upon
any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security (including any Transfer Restricted Security represented by a Global Security) pursuant to Rule 144
under the Securities Act or an effective registration statement under the Securities Act: 

        (1)   in
the case of any Transfer Restricted Security that is in the form of a definitive Note, the Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Transfer
Restricted Security for a definitive Note that does not bear the legend set forth in Section 3.04(a) below and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Security; and 

        (2)   in
the case of any Transfer Restricted Security represented by a Global Security, such Transfer Restricted Security shall not be required to bear the legend set forth in
Section 3.04(a) below if all other interests in such Global Security have been or are concurrently being sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, upon consummation of an Exchange Offer, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an authentication order in accordance with Section 2.05 of the Original
Indenture, the Trustee shall authenticate Series B Notes in exchange for Series A Notes accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer, which Series B Notes shall not bear the legend
set forth in Section 3.04(a) below, and the Registrar shall rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Notes, in each case unless the Holder of such Series A Notes is either
(A) a Person participating in the distribution of the Series A Notes or (B) a Person who is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Issuer.
The Issuer shall identify to the Trustee such Holders of the Notes in a written certification signed by an officer of the Issuer and, absent certification from the Issuer to such effect, the Trustee
shall assume that there are no such Holders. 

        (c)   Upon
any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security in definitive form initially resold to Persons other than U.S. Persons in reliance upon Regulation S
pursuant to (i) Regulation S following 40 consecutive days beginning on and including the later of the day on which such Transfer Restricted Security was offered to Persons other than
"distributors" (as such term is defined in Regulation S) and the date of the closing of the original offering, or (ii) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, the
Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Security for a definitive Note that does not bear the legend referred to in Section 3.04(b) below and rescind any
restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Security. 

        Section 3.04.    Restrictive Legends.    

        (a)   Except
as provided in Section 3.03 hereof, prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, each security certificate evidencing the Notes shall bear a legend in

TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON RULE 144A, (3) INSIDE THE UNITED STATES TO AN INSTITUTIONAL "ACCREDITED INVESTOR" (AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(A)(1), (2), (3) OR (7) UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT), (4) TO A NON-"U.S. PERSON" IN AN "OFFSHORE TRANSACTION" (AS SUCH TERMS ARE DEFINED IN REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) IN ACCORDANCE WITH REGULATION S UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT, (5) PURSUANT TO ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, INCLUDING THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT, IF AVAILABLE, OR (6) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, SUBJECT IN EACH OF THE FOREGOING CASES TO ANY REQUIREMENT OF LAW THAT THE DISPOSITION OF ITS
PROPERTY OR THE PROPERTY OF SUCH INVESTOR ACCOUNT OR ACCOUNTS BE AT ALL TIMES WITHIN ITS OR THEIR CONTROL, AND SUBJECT TO THE RIGHT OF THE ISSUER OR THE TRUSTEE FOR THE SECURITIES PRIOR TO ANY SUCH
SALE, PLEDGE OR OTHER TRANSFER TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATIONS AND/OR OTHER INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO EACH OF THEM. THIS LEGEND WILL BE REMOVED UPON REQUEST OF THE
HOLDER ON OR AFTER THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE. 

        (b)   Each
security certificate evidencing the Global Securities shall bear a legend substantially in the form set forth in Section 2.15(a) of the Original Indenture. 

 
 

ARTICLE IV

redeem the Notes, the Issuer must pay a redemption price in an amount determined in accordance with the provisions of paragraph number 5 of the form of Note in

        Capitalized
terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 

        1.    Interest; Additional Interest.    Enbridge Energy Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the
"Partnership" or the "Issuer"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 5.95% per annum from                ,
            until maturity. The Issuer shall
pay interest semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each such year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an "Interest
Payment Date"). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance;  provided that if there is no
existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the
face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided, further,  that the first Interest Payment Date shall
be                ,            . The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in
any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the same rate; and it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest
in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful.
Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 

        2.    Method of Payment.    The Issuer shall pay interest on the Notes (except Defaulted Interest) to the Persons who
are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 15 or November 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and
on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.17 of the Original Indenture with respect to Defaulted Interest, and the Issuer shall pay principal (and premium, if
any) of the Notes upon surrender thereof to the Trustee or a paying agent on or after the Stated Maturity thereof. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the
office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose (which initially is c/o Computershare Trust Company, Wall Street Plaza, 88 Pine Street, 19th Floor, New York, New York 10005), or, at the
option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided  that payment by wire transfer of immediately
available funds shall be required with respect to principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on, (a) each Global
Security and (b) all other Notes aggregating at least $1,000,000 in principal amount the Holder of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer or the paying agent on or
prior to the applicable record date. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 

        3.    Paying Agent and Registrar.    Initially, SunTrust Bank, the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as paying
agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any paying agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Partnership may act in any such capacity. 

        4.    Indenture.    The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of May 27, 2003 (the "Original
Indenture"), as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of the same date (the "Supplemental Indenture" and, together with the Original Indenture, the "Indenture") between the Issuer
and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code
§§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the 

A-3

 

Indenture
and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and
be controlling. The Notes are the obligation of the Issuer, initially in aggregate principal amount of $200 million. The Issuer may issue an unlimited aggregate principal amount of Additional
Notes under the Indenture. Any such Additional Notes that are actually issued shall be treated as issued and outstanding Notes (and as the same series (with identical terms other than with respect to
the issue date, issue price and first payment of interest) as the initial Note for the purposes indicated in Section 3.02 of the Supplemental Indenture). Initially, the Notes are not
guaranteed, but in the future they may be guaranteed by one or more Subsidiary Guarantors on the conditions and subject to the terms provided in Section 4.13 and Article XIV of the
Indenture. 

        5.    Optional Redemption.    (a) At its option, the Issuer may choose to redeem all or any portion of the
Notes, at once or from time to time. 

        (b)   To
redeem the Notes, the Issuer must pay a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and
(ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to
the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 30 basis
points, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, including Additional Interest, if any, to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date to receive
interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). 

        For
purposes of determining the redemption price, the following definitions shall apply: 

        "Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by the Independent Investment Banker as
having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial
practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed. 

        "Comparable Treasury Price" means, for any Redemption Date, (1) the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such
Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury
Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations. 

        "Independent Investment Banker" means either Citigroup Global Markets Inc. or Banc of America Securities LLC, as specified by the
Partnership, and any successor firm, or if such firm is unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the
Trustee after consultation with the Partnership. 

        "Reference Treasury Dealer" means each of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Banc of America Securities LLC, plus two other dealers
selected by the Trustee that are primary U.S. government securities dealers in New York City and their respective successors; provided, if any of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. or Bank of
America Securities LLC or any primary U.S. government securities dealer selected by the Trustee shall cease to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer, then such other primary U.S. government
securities dealers as may be substituted by the Trustee. 

        "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, for each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by
the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury
Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date. 

A-4

 

        "Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the
immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated "H.15(519)" or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities," for the
maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities
most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the
nearest month) or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week in which the calculation date falls (or in the immediately preceding week if the calculation
date falls on any day prior to the usual publication date for such release) or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the
Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption
Date. The Treasury Rate shall be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date. Any weekly average yields calculated by interpolation or extrapolation will be rounded to the
nearest 1/100th of 1%, with any figure of 1/200th of 1% or above being rounded upward. 

        6.    Mandatory Redemption.    The Issuer shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments
with respect to the Notes or to repurchase them at the option of the Holders. 

        7.    Notice of Redemption.    Notice of redemption shall be mailed at least 30 days but not more than
60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole
multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption and
with respect to which the redemption price has been paid. 

        8.    Denominations, Transfer, Exchange.    The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of
$1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among
other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes or other governmental charges imposed in relation thereto. 

        9.    Persons Deemed Owners.    The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

        10.    Amendment, Supplement and Waiver.    Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended or
supplemented with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the
Indenture relating to the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes. Without the consent of any Holder
of a Note, the Indenture may be amended or supplemented for any of the purposes set forth in Section 9.01 of the Indenture, including to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide
for the assumption of the Issuer's obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation of the Issuer or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer's assets, to add or release
Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights under the Indenture of any Holder of the Notes, to comply with the
requirements of the SEC to permit the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, to evidence or provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture of a successor or separate Trustee, to 

A-5

 

add
to the covenants of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, to secure the Notes or the Guarantee or to establish the form or terms of any other series of Debt Securities. 

        11.    Defaults and Remedies.    Events of Default with respect to the Notes include: (i) default for
30 days in the payment when due of interest on, including any Additional Interest with respect to, the Notes; (ii) default in payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the
Notes when due at Stated Maturity, upon redemption or otherwise, (iii) failure by the Partnership or any Subsidiary Guarantor for 60 days after notice to comply with any of its other
covenants or agreements in the Indenture relating to the Notes; (iv) default by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries in the payment at the Stated Maturity, after the expiration of any
applicable grace period, of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Debt then outstanding having a principal amount in excess of the greater of $25 million and 2% of total partners'
capital in the Partnership, or acceleration of any Debt having a principal amount in excess of the greater of such amounts so that it becomes due and payable prior to its Stated Maturity and such
acceleration is not rescinded within 30 days after notice; (v) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Guarantee shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be null and void or shall
cease to be in full force and effect or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under the Indenture or its Guarantee and (vi) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency
or reorganization with respect to the Issuer or, if and so long as the Notes are guaranteed by a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Subsidiary Guarantor. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an
Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all Outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or
the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in
its exercise of any trust or power. If and so long as the Trustee in good faith so determines, the Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default
(except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests. The Holders of not less than a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its
consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes. The Partnership is required to
deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Partnership is required within 30 days after the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, to
deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default and certain additional information. 

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

        13.    No Recourse Against Others.    The General Partner and its directors, officers, employees, incorporators,
members and stockholders, as such, shall have no liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture or the Guarantee or for any claim based on, in
respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration
for issuance of the Notes. 

        14.    Authentication.    This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or
an authenticating agent. 

        15.    Abbreviations.    Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM
(= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint 

A-6

 

tenants
with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 

        16.    CUSIP and ISIN Numbers.    Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security
Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP and corresponding ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP and corresponding ISIN numbers in notices of redemption
as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on
the other identification numbers placed thereon. 

        17.    Additional Rights of Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities.    In addition to the rights provided to
Holders of Notes under the Indenture, Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities shall have all the rights set forth in the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, including the right to receive
Additional Interest as set forth therein. 

        The
Issuer shall furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to:

	Re:
	5.95%
Series [A/B] Notes due 2033 of Enbridge Energy Partners, L.P. (the "Issuer") 

        This
Certificate relates to $            principal amount of the above captioned Notes held in definitive form (the "Securities")
by                        (the "Transferor").
 

The
Transferor has requested the Trustee by written order to exchange or register the transfer of a Security or Securities. 

        In
connection with such request and in respect of each such Security, the Transferor does hereby certify that the Transferor is familiar with the Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture
relative to the Securities and that the transfer of this Security does not require registration under the Securities Act (as defined below) because:* 

        o    Such
Security is being acquired for the Transferor's own account without transfer. 

        o    Such
Security is being transferred to a "qualified institutional buyer" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")), in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act. 

        o    Such
Security is being transferred (i) in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act (and based on an
opinion of counsel if the Issuer or the Trustee so requests) or (ii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. 

        o    Such
Security is being transferred to an institutional "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1),
(2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act pursuant to a private placement exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (and based on an opinion of counsel if the
Issuer or the Trustee so requests) together with a certification in substantially the form of Exhibit D to the Supplemental Indenture and, to the knowledge of the Transferor, such institutional
accredited investor to whom such Security is to be transferred is not an "affiliate" (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Issuer. 

        o    Such
Security is being transferred in reliance on and in compliance with another exemption from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act (and based on an opinion of counsel if the Issuers so request).

Ladies
and Gentlemen: 

        In
connection with our proposed purchase of $                        aggregate principal amount of 5.95% Series [A/B] Notes due 2033
(the "Securities") of Enbridge Energy
Partners, L.P. (the "Issuer"): 

        1.     We
understand that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or under any other applicable securities
laws, and may not be sold except as permitted in the following sentence. We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing the Securities to offer, sell or
otherwise transfer such Securities prior to the date which is two years after the later of the date of original issue and the last date on which the Issuer or any affiliate of the Issuer was the owner
of such Securities, or any predecessor, thereto (the "Resale Restriction Termination Date") only (a) to the Issuer, (b) pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), (c) for so long as the Securities are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, to a
person we reasonably believe is a qualified institutional buyer under Rule 144A (a "QIB") that purchases for its own account or for the account of a QIB to whom notice is given that the
transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (d) to an institutional "accredited investor" within the meaning of subparagraph (a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501
under the Securities Act (an "Institutional Accredited Investor") that is acquiring the Securities for its own account or for the account of another Institutional Accredited Investor for investment
purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the regulations of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws or
(e) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, subject in each of the foregoing cases to any requirement of law that the disposition of
our property and the property of such investor account or accounts be at all times within our or their control. The foregoing restrictions on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction
Termination Date. If any resale or other transfer of the Securities is proposed to be made pursuant to clause (d) above prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall
deliver a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter to the Trustee, which shall provide, among other things, that the transferee is an Institutional Accredited Investor and
that it is acquiring such Securities for investment purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act. We acknowledge that the Issuer and the Trustee reserve the right prior to any
offer, sale or other transfer pursuant to clause (d) or (e) prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date of the Securities to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel,
certifications and/or other information satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee. 

        2.     We
are an Institutional Accredited Investor purchasing for our own account or for the account of another Institutional Accredited Investor.

        3.     We
are acquiring the Securities purchased by us for our own account, or for one or more accounts as to each of which we exercise sole investment discretion, for
investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with any distribution in violation of, the Securities Act. We have such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investment in the Securities, we invest in securities similar to the Securities in the normal course of our business and we, and
all accounts for which we are acting, are able to bear the economic risks of investment in the Securities. 

        4.     You
are entitled to rely upon this letter and you are irrevocably authorized to produce this letter or a copy thereof to any interested party in any administrative or
legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby.
