                                    RECITALS

      WHEREAS, the MLP, EECI and Enbridge are parties to that certain
Distribution Support Agreement dated as of December 27, 1991 (the "DISTRIBUTION

      WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend and restate the Distribution Support

      SECTION 2.6.

            (a)   [RESERVED]

            (b) Enbridge hereby grants to the MLP and Enbridge Energy, Limited
Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the "OPERATING PARTNERSHIP"), a
worldwide non-exclusive royalty-free right and license for so long as an
Affiliate of Enbridge serves as general partner of the MLP and the Operating
Partnership, respectively, and to each of their respective subsidiaries, for so
long as such subsidiary is controlled, directly or indirectly, by the MLP or
Operating Partnership, as the case may be, to use (i) the blue oil drop symbol
which has been used in the past by Enbridge and EECI and (ii) the Enbridge
Energy Spiral (the blue oil drop symbol and the Enbridge Energy Spiral being
collectively referred to as the "SYMBOLS") and related goodwill. The MLP and the
Operating Partnership (i) agree to maintain the quality of services provided in
connection with the Symbols to a level at least as high as the quality standards
of Enbridge in its use of the Symbols and (ii) acknowledge that Enbridge is the
owner of the Symbols with full right, title and interest therein and that all
use by any of them of the Symbols shall inure to the benefit of Enbridge.

            (c) To the extent that Enbridge is providing services to Management
under the Operational Services Agreement dated as of even date herewith between
Enbridge, EECI and Management (the "OPERATIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT") as of the
effective date of (i) withdrawal by EECI as the general partner of the MLP, (ii)
removal of EECI as general partner of the MLP under circumstances where "cause"
exists or (iii) transfer of the capital stock of EECI to any Person that is not
an Affiliate of Enbridge, then Enbridge shall be obligated to provide such
services on substantially the same terms and conditions as provided in the
Operational Services Agreement, to the MLP for twelve months following such
effective date, but shall have no such obligation under the Operational Services
Agreement thereafter.

            (d) The obligations of Enbridge under Article 5 (Liability and
Indemnification) of the Operational Services Agreement shall extend to the MLP
and the Operating Partnership upon the same terms as provided in the Operational
Services Agreement with respect to Management and EECI.

            (e) As used in this Agreement, "Affiliate" means, with respect to
any person, any other person that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled
by or is under common control with, the person in question. As used herein, the
term "control" means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to
direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person,
whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

                                   ARTICLE III
                                   [RESERVED]

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                CHANGE IN CONTROL

      SECTION 4.1. ASSIGNMENT UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL. In the event of a Change
of Control of EECI, Enbridge may assign its obligations under this Agreement to
the controlling person of EECI if, after taking into account the Change of
Control transaction, the unsecured

                                       2
<PAGE>

long-term debt credit rating of such controlling person as assigned by a
nationally recognized statistical rating organization would be, after giving
effect to such Change of Control transaction, at least equal to the unsecured
long-term debt credit rating of Enbridge as assigned by a nationally recognized
statistical rating organization immediately before such Change of Control
transaction.

      SECTION 4.2. DEFINITION OF CHANGE OF CONTROL. A "CHANGE OF CONTROL" shall
be deemed to have occurred at such time as Enbridge shall no longer own,
directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the outstanding capital stock of EECI.

                                    ARTICLE V
                             BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES

      SECTION 5.1. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES OF EECI. EECI agrees that its sole
business will be to act as general partner of the MLP, to manage certain
subsidiaries and to undertake ancillary activities. EECI shall not permit any
subsidiary to engage in or acquire any business that is in direct material
competition with the business of the MLP or Operating Partnership conducted
immediately following the Closing Date.

      SECTION 5.2. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES OF ENBRIDGE AND ITS OTHER SUBSIDIARIES.
No provision of this Agreement shall restrict the ability of Enbridge and its
Affiliates other than EECI to engage in any business. However, so long as an
Affiliate of Enbridge is the general partner of the Partnership and the
Operating Partnership, Enbridge and its subsidiaries other than EECI ("OTHER
SUBSIDIARIES") shall not engage in or acquire any business that is in direct
material competition with the current business of the MLP (which term, for
purposes of this Section, includes the Operating Partnership); PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that

            (i) Enbridge and its other subsidiaries shall not be restricted from
      continuing to engage in businesses, including the normal development of
      those businesses in which they were engaged as of December 27, 1991 (the
      "CLOSING DATE"), which then were or may in the future be in competition
      with the MLP, including the potential reversal of Enbridge's line from
      Sarnia, Ontario to Montreal, Quebec to transport crude oil from Montreal
      to Sarnia;

            (ii) such restriction shall be limited geographically only to those
      routes and products in respect of which the MLP, as of the Closing Date,
      provides transportation (so that, for example, Enbridge and its other
      subsidiaries would be permitted to acquire a crude oil pipeline business
      in which transportation is made over routes or involving products not
      served by the MLP at the Closing Date);

            (iii) Enbridge and its other subsidiaries shall not be prohibited
      from acquiring any competitive business as part of a larger acquisition so
      long as the majority of the value of the business or assets acquired, in
      Enbridge's reasonable judgment, is not attributable to such competitive
      business; and

            (iv) Enbridge and its other subsidiaries shall not be prohibited
      from acquiring any competitive business if such business is first offered
      for acquisition to the MLP and

                                       3
<PAGE>

      the MLP fails to approve, after submission to Unitholder vote, the making
      of such acquisition.

The approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Units in the MLP
(excluding for this purpose any Units held by EECI or any of its Affiliates) is
required for the MLP to exercise its right to accept such an offer.

      Except as specified above, Enbridge and its other subsidiaries are not
restricted by this Agreement from engaging in businesses which may be in
competition with the MLP

                                   ARTICLE VI
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      SECTION 6.1. NO JOINT VENTURE. This Agreement is not intended to create,
and shall not be construed as creating, any relationship of partnership, agency,
joint venture or association for profit between the parties.

      SECTION 6.2. NO FIDUCIARY DUTIES. The parties hereto shall not have any
fiduciary obligations or duties to the other parties by reason of this
Agreement. Absent anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any party hereto
may conduct any activity or business for its own profit whether or not such
activity or business is in competition with any activity or business of the
other party.

      SECTION 6.3. BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT. The covenants and agreements contained
in this Agreement are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and shall not
be construed as conferring, and are not intended to confer, any direct, indirect
or third-party beneficiary rights on any other persons, including without
limitation, the Limited Partners of the MLP.
