Energy Partners L.P. changed its name to Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. and (iii) on September 1, 2003 WEG GP LLC changed its name to Magellan GP, LLC. 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company has requested that each registered holder of a Note as of the date of this Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement
(collectively, the “Consenting Holders”) consent to the amendment and restatement of the Original Note Purchase Agreement to allow, among other things, for the prepayment of the Series A Notes in full and the release of Collateral
(as set forth herein). 
  
 WHEREAS, the Consenting Holders have
consented to such amendment and restatement (in accordance with the terms hereof). 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and other agreements herein contained, the Company, the Guarantor and the General Partner (with the consent of each Consenting Holder) hereby agree to amend and restate
the Original Note Purchase Agreement in its entirety as follows, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 4.4 hereof (each Schedule and Exhibit to the Original Note Purchase Agreement is hereby incorporated herein as if repeated
herein in its entirety): 
  
 TO THE
PURCHASERS LISTED IN 
 THE ATTACHED SCHEDULE A-1 
 AND SCHEDULE A-2: 
  
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
  
 Each of the Company, the Guarantor and the General Partner agrees as follows: 

 1. AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES. 
  
 The Company will authorize the issue and sale of: 
  
 (a) up to $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Floating Rate Series A Senior Secured Notes due October 7, 2007
(the “Series A Notes”, such term to include the Series A-1 Notes and Series A-2 Notes described below and any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 14 of this Agreement) and 
  
 (b) up to $340,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Fixed Rate Series B
Senior Secured Notes due October 7, 2007 (the “Series B Notes”, such term to include the Series B-1 Notes, the Series B-2A Notes and the Series B-2B Notes described below and any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant
to Section 14 of this Agreement). 
  
 The Series A Notes shall be
issued in two series, the Series A-1 Notes (the “Series A-1 Notes”) and the Series A-2 Notes (the “Series A-2 Notes”), on the Initial Closing Date and the Subsequent Closing Date, respectively. The Series B Notes
shall be issued in three series; the Series B-1 Notes (the “Series B-1 Notes”) shall be issued on the Initial Closing Date, and the Series B-2A Notes (as defined below) and the Series B-2B Notes (as defined below) shall be issued on
the Subsequent Closing Date. The Series A Notes and Series B Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit A and Exhibit B, respectively, with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be approved by the Purchasers and the Company. The
Series A Notes and Series B Notes are collectively referred to herein as the “Notes”, and individually as a “Note”. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; references to a
“Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement. 
  
 The Company is a direct subsidiary of the Guarantor, which owns 100% of the membership interests in the Company. Pursuant to Section 10 below (the
“Guarantee”), the Guarantor will guarantee to the holders of the Notes, (i) the full and prompt payment of the principal of and interest, the Prepayment Premium, the Make-Whole Amount and other amounts owing, if any, on the
Notes from time to time outstanding, as and when such payments become due and payable (including interest on overdue payments of principal, interest, the Prepayment Premium and the Make-Whole Amount at the rate set forth in the Notes), (ii) the full
and prompt payment of all attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses of collection incurred by the holders of such Notes in connection with the enforcement of the Guarantee and (iii) if the Guarantor shall fail to make any payment required to be made
by it to any holder of any Note under Section 10 hereof on the date such payment is due thereunder, full and prompt payment of the interest on the amount of such payment, at the rate of interest then in effect with respect to overdue payments of
principal or interest on the Notes concerned, from the date such payment was required to be made until the same is actually paid to such holder. 
  
 2. SALE AND PURCHASE OF NOTES. 
  
 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to the purchasers of the Notes (each a
“Purchaser”), and each Purchaser severally commits to purchase from the Company, at the times provided for in Section 3, Notes in the principal 
  

 2 

 amount specified opposite such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A-1 and Schedule A-2 (collectively, its
“Commitment”; together with the Commitment of each other Purchaser, the “Commitments”) at the purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. Each Purchaser’s Commitment hereunder is a several and not
joint obligation, and no Purchaser shall have any obligation or liability to any Person for the performance or non-performance by any other Purchaser hereunder. 
  

3. CLOSINGS AND COLLATERAL ACCOUNTS. 
  
 3.1 Sale and Purchase. The sale and purchase of the Notes shall occur as follows: 
  
 (a) The sale and purchase of Series A-1 Notes and Series B-1 Notes in an aggregate principal amount of up to $420,000,000 to
be purchased by the Purchasers shall occur at the offices of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, 425 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10017, at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, at a closing (the “Initial Closing”) on November 12,
2002 or on such other Business Day thereafter on or prior to November 27, 2002 as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Purchasers in writing (the “Initial Closing Date”); and 
  
 (b) The sale and purchase of Series A-2 Notes and Series B-2 Notes (as
defined below) in an aggregate principal amount of up to the remaining balance of the aggregate Commitments to be purchased by the Purchasers shall occur at the offices of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, 425 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York
10017, at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, at a single closing (the “Subsequent Closing”, together with the Initial Closing, the “Closings” and each a “Closing”) to be held on the tenth calendar day
(or, if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) following the giving of written notice by the Company to the Purchasers of the date of the Subsequent Closing (the “Subsequent Closing Date”) and the
principal amount of Series A-2 Notes and Series B-2 Notes to be issued at the Subsequent Closing; provided, however, that the Subsequent Closing shall in any event occur on or prior to December 31, 2002. Commitments not utilized on or
prior to December 31, 2002 shall automatically terminate. 
  
 The
interest rate applicable to the Series A-1 Notes to be sold at the Initial Closing and the Series A-2 Notes to be sold at the Subsequent Closing shall be determined on the second Business Day prior to the Initial Closing Date and Subsequent Closing
Date, respectively, and shall be set based on the Six-Month LIBOR Rate then in effect plus the greater of (a) 425 basis points (4.25%) and (b) such margin as is necessary so that the interest rate on the Series A Notes shall equal the
swap-adjusted equivalent of the weighted average interest rate on the Series B Notes issued at the same Closing. On each Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Series A Notes), the Company shall provide the Account Agent with written notice of the
Interest Rate (as defined in the Series A Notes) on the Series A Notes for the then current six-month interest period. 
  
 Subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph, the interest rate applicable to the Series B-1 Notes shall be 7.67%. Subject to the immediately
succeeding paragraph, the interest rate applicable to the Series B-2 Notes shall be equal to the yield on the five-year United States Treasury Bond plus 470 basis points (4.70%) as determined on the second Business Day prior to the Subsequent
Closing Date (the “Series B-2A Notes”); provided, however, that on or prior to 
  

 3 

 November 4, 2002, each Purchaser shall be entitled to elect that the interest rate with respect to the Series B-2 Notes
to be purchased by it at the Subsequent Closing shall instead be determined based on the yield on the five-year United States Treasury Bond as of the close of trading on October 31, 2002 (the “Series B-2B Notes”; together with the
Series B-2A Notes, the “Series B-2 Notes”). As of the date of the issuance of the Series B-2B Notes, the interest rate applicable to the Series B-2 Notes was set at 7.93%, and as of the date of the amendment and restatement of the
Original Note Purchase Agreement, such interest rate is subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, commencing on the date of occurrence of a Downgrade Rating Event, the interest rate applicable to each Series B Note shall
automatically increase by 100 basis points (1.00%) for the remaining term of such Series B Note. 
  
 For purposes of the foregoing, “Downgrade Rating Event”, shall mean the first of the following events to occur: 
  

	 	(i)	Standard & Poor’s shall assign a rating of less than BBB- to the Series B Notes; 

  

	 	(ii)	Standard & Poor’s rating of the Series B Notes shall lapse; or 

  

	 	(iii)	any other Rating Agency shall assign a rating to the Series B Notes that is less than an Investment Grade Rating. 

  
 Notes to be sold by the Company at each Closing shall be allocated between
Purchasers of the Series A Notes and the Purchasers of the Series B Notes pro rata in accordance with the Purchasers’ Commitments. 
  
 At each Closing the Company will deliver the Notes to be purchased by each Purchaser in the form of a single Note dated the date of such Closing and
registered in such Purchaser’s name (or in the name of its nominee), against delivery by such Purchaser to the Company or its order of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately
available funds for the account of the Company to account number 5572665 at Bank One Chicago, ABA 071000013. Upon the request of any Purchaser, the Company shall deliver two or more notes to such Purchaser each having denominations of at least
$1,000,000 which together equal the amount of such Purchaser’s investment on such Closing Date. If at either Closing the Company shall fail to tender such Notes to each Purchaser as provided above in this Section 3, or any of the conditions
specified in Sections 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 shall not have been fulfilled to any Purchaser’s satisfaction, such Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of its Commitment with respect to such Closing and from all further obligations under this
Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights it may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment. 
  
 3.2 Grant of Security Regarding Collateral Accounts. 
  
 (a) The Company hereby grants, assigns and transfers to the holders of the Series B Notes, a security interest in the Collateral Accounts, whether now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by the Company or in which
the Company now has or at any time in the future may 
  

 4 

 acquire any right, title or interest as collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due
(whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Company’s Obligations. 
  
 (b) The Company hereby represents and warrants to the holders of the Series B Notes that, upon execution and delivery of an Account Control Agreement with
respect to each such Collateral Account, the security interest granted pursuant to Section 3.2(a) shall constitute a legal, valid and enforceable first priority perfected security interest in such Collateral Account in favor of the holders of the

outstanding principal of the Series A Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date, and a prepayment premium in the aggregate amount not to exceed $12,666,000 (the “Prepayment Premium”). 

 
 (b) Series B Notes Prepayment. 
  
 (i) Prepayment. The Company may, at its option, upon notice as
provided in Section 7.3(b)(ii) below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Series B Notes at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid plus the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to such
principal amount. 
  
 (ii) Notice of Prepayment. The
Company will give each holder of Notes to be redeemed written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 7.3 not less than thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment; provided
that in the case of the prepayment of Series A Notes pursuant to Section 7.3(a) above, such notice shall be given not less than three days and not more than thirty days. Each such notice shall specify such date, the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 7.3(b)(iii)), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being
prepaid, and shall, in the case of the Series B Notes, be accompanied by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company as to the Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were

 the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two (2) Business Days prior to such
prepayment of the Series B Notes, the Company shall deliver to each holder of the Series B Notes to be prepaid a certificate of a Responsible Officer specifying the calculation of the Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.

  
 (iii) Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of
each partial optional prepayment of the Series B Notes pursuant to this Section 7.3(b), the principal amount of the Series B Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Series B Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as
practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment. 
  
 (c) Series B Notes Downgrade Rating Event Prepayment. 
  
 (i) Downgrade Rating Prepayment Offer. The Company may, at its option, within the ten Business Days following the date of occurrence of a
Downgrade Rating Event, offer to prepay the Series B Notes, in whole but not in part, at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date (such an offer, a “Downgrade Rating Prepayment
Offer”). Each holder of a Series B Note may, at its option, accept or reject such offer. 
  
 (ii) Downgrade Rating Prepayment Offer Notice etc. 
  
 (A) In the event that the Company elects to make such a Downgrade Rating Prepayment Offer, it shall, no later than the tenth Business
Days following such Downgrade Rating Event, give each holder of Notes written notice of such offer (each such notice, a “Downgrade Rating Prepayment Offer Notice”). Each such Downgrade Rating Prepayment Offer Notice shall (x)
specify the proposed prepayment date (which shall be no later than 60 calendar days after the date of such Downgrade Rating Event)(the “Downgrade Rating Prepayment Date”), the principal amount of each Note held by such holder, and
the interest to be paid on such prepayment date, and (y) be accompanied by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company as to the Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the
date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. 
  
 (B) Each holder of a Series B Note shall have ten Business Days from the date of its receipt of such Downgrade Rating Prepayment Offer Notice to notify the Company in writing of its acceptance or rejection of such
offer, provided that any failure by such holder to respond to such offer within such period shall de deemed to be a rejection by such holder of such offer. 
  
 (C) No later than the twenty-fifth Business Day following such Downgrade Rating Event the Company shall
give each holder of Notes written notice (each such notice, a “Second Downgrade Rating Prepayment Offer Notice”) of (i) the names of each holder of the Notes that has accepted the Downgrade Rating Prepayment Offer and (ii) the
aggregate outstanding principal of the Notes held by such holders. Each such notice shall (x) specify the proposed Downgrade Rating Prepayment Date, the 
  

 28 

 principal amount of each Note held by such holder, and the interest to be paid on such prepayment date,
(y) be accompanied by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company as to the Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of
such computation and (z) repeat the Downgrade Rating Prepayment Offer (to the extent that such offer has not previously been accepted by such holder). 
  
 (D) Each holder of a Series B Note shall have ten Business Days from the date of its receipt of such Second Downgrade Rating Prepayment
Offer Notice to notify the Company in writing of its acceptance or rejection of such offer, provided that any failure by such holder to respond to such offer within such period shall de deemed to be a rejection by such holder of such offer.

  
 (E) Two (2) Business Days prior to such
prepayment of the relevant Series B Notes, the Company shall deliver to each holder of the Series B Notes that has accepted such offer a certificate of a Responsible Officer specifying the calculation of the Make-Whole Amount as of the specified
prepayment date. 
  
 (d) Make Whole Amount. The term
“Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Series B Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Series B Note over the
amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings: 
  
 “Called Principal” means, with respect to any Series B
Note, the principal of such Series B Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 7.3 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12 as the context requires. 
  
 “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called
Principal of any Series B Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in
accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Series B Notes is payable) equal to the sum of (i) the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal
and (ii) 100 basis points. 
  
 “Reinvestment
Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series B Note, the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported, as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect
to such Called Principal, on the display designated as PX 1 Page on Bloomberg (or such other display as may replace Page 678 on Telerate Access Service) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average
Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable, the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day
for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release 
  

 29 

 H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a constant
maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. Such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with
accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the duration closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (2) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the
duration closest to and less than the Remaining Average Life. 
  
 “Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products
obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date
with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment. 
  
 “Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series B Note, all payments of such Called Principal
and interest thereon (in accordance with the immediately succeeding sentence) that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date,
provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Series B Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of
interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 7.3 or 13. For the purposes of calculating the amount of the Remaining Scheduled Payments (i) on and after any Downgrade Rating Prepayment
Date in accordance with Section 7.3(c), the relevant interest rate on the Called Principal shall be the interest rate applicable to the Series B Notes immediately prior to the date of occurrence of the relevant Downgrade Rating Event and (ii) in all
other cases, the relevant interest rate on the Called Principal shall be the interest rate applicable to the Series B Notes on the relevant Settlement Date. 
  
 “Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series B Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be
prepaid pursuant to Section 7.3 (including any Downgrade Rating Prepayment Date) or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 13, as the context requires. 
  
 7.4 Mandatory Prepayments of the Notes. 
  
 If on any date the Company or any Subsidiary (or the Guarantor on behalf of
the Company or any Subsidiary) shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Recovery Event then, unless such Net Cash Proceeds are applied by the Company or any Subsidiary in accordance with Section 8.6, such Net Cash Proceeds shall (unless the holders
thereof otherwise consent) be applied toward the prepayment of the Notes at par (plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon) pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof. In the event that one or
more holders of Notes decline the right to receive any prepayment to be made pursuant to this Section 7.4, the aggregate amount of such declined prepayments shall be applied to the 
  

 30 

 prepayment of the Notes held by the holders which have accepted prepayment pro rata in accordance with the
respective unpaid principal amount of the Notes held by such accepting holders. 
  
 7.5 Maturity; Surrender, etc. upon Prepayment. 
  
 In the case of each prepayment of Notes made pursuant to Sections 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such
principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Prepayment Premium or Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and
the Prepayment Premium and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note
shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note. 
  
 7.6
Purchase of Notes. 
  
 The Company will not and will not
permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes. The Company
will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

  
 7.7 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. 
  
 (a) Except as otherwise provided, each payment (including each prepayment)
by the Company on account of principal of the Notes shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Notes then held by the Purchasers. 
  
 (b) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Company hereunder
and under the Notes, whether on account of principal, interest or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof, in U.S. dollars and in immediately
available funds. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest
payable on such next succeeding Business Day (unless such payment relates to the final maturity of the Notes in which case such payment shall include interest on account of any additional days elapsed). 
  
 7.8 Benefitted Holder. 
  
 Except to the extent that this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular holder or to the
holders of a particular series of the Notes, if any holder of Notes (a “Benefitted Holder”) shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily
or involuntarily, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 12(g) or otherwise), in a greater proportion 
  

 31 

 than any such payment to or collateral received by any other holder, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such
other holder, such Benefitted Holder shall purchase for cash from the other holders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other holder, or shall provide such other holders with the benefits of any such
collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Holder to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the holders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or
benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Holder, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

 36 

 (ii) with respect to policies described in subsections (b)(ii), to the extent available
from the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ insurers, the interests of the Holders shall not be invalidated by any action or inaction of the Company, or any other Person, and shall insure the Holders regardless of any breach or violation by
the Company or any other Person, of any warranties, declarations or conditions of such policies; 
  
 (iii) inasmuch as the liability policies are written to cover more than one insured, all terms conditions, insuring agreements and
endorsements, with the exception of the limits of liability, shall operate in the same manner as if there were a separate policy covering each insured; 
  
 (iv) the insurers thereunder shall waive all rights of subrogation against the Holders, any right of setoff or counterclaim and any other
right to deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise; 
  
 (v) such insurance shall be primary without right of contribution of any other insurance carried by or on behalf of the Holders with respect to this Agreement and the Notes issued pursuant hereto; and 
  
 (vi) if such insurance is canceled for any reason
whatsoever, including nonpayment of premium, or any material changes are initiated by the Company and its Subsidiaries, or carrier which affect the interests of the Holders, such cancellation or change shall not be effective as to the Holders until
thirty (30) days, except for non-payment of premium which shall be ten (10) days, after receipt by the Holders of written notice sent by registered mail from such insurer or from the insurance broker. 
  
 (d) On the Initial Closing Date, and at each policy renewal, but not less
than annually, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide to the Holders approved certification from each insurer or by an authorized representative of each insurer or from a nationally recognized insurance broker. Such
certification shall identify the underwriters, the type of insurance, the limits, deductibles, and term thereof and shall specifically list the special provisions delineated for such insurance required for this Section 8.5. 
  
 (e) Concurrently with the furnishing of all certificates referred to in this
Section 8.5, the Company shall furnish the Holders with an opinion from an independent and nationally recognized insurance broker, stating that all premiums then due have been paid and that, in the opinion of such broker, the insurance then
maintained by the Company and its Subsidiaries is in accordance with this section. Furthermore, upon its first knowledge, such broker shall advise each Holder promptly in writing of any default in the payment of any premiums or any other act or
omission, on the part of any person, which might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance provided by the Company hereunder. 
  
 (f) The Holders shall be entitled, upon reasonable advance notice, to review the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ books and records and insurance
policies regarding all insurance policies carried and maintained with respect to the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ 
  

 37

 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any

 10.
GUARANTEE. 
  
 The Guarantor does hereby covenant and agree
with each Purchaser and each subsequent holder of any of the Notes as follows: 
  
 10.1 Scope of Guarantee. 
  
 Until the
Obligations of the Company under this Agreement have been terminated in accordance with their terms (other than by reason of an Event of Default thereunder), the Guarantor hereby guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety,
absolutely and unconditionally (i) the full and prompt payment of the principal of and interest and the Prepayment Premium and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and other liabilities or amounts payable on the Notes from time to time outstanding, as and
when such payments become due and payable, whether by lapse of time, upon redemption or prepayment, by extension or by acceleration or declaration, or otherwise, and the due and punctual payment of any other 
  

 50 

 Obligations or amounts owing to the holders of the Notes, or any of them, by the Company under the Notes, this Agreement,
any other Note Purchase Document or otherwise (including interest on overdue payments of principal, the Prepayment Premium and Make-Whole Amount, if any, or interest or other liabilities or amounts at the rate set forth in the Notes), (ii) the full
and prompt payment of all attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses of collection in amounts actually incurred by the holders of such Notes in connection with the enforcement of this Guarantee, (iii) the full and timely performance of all other
obligations of the Company under each Note Purchase Document and (iv) if the Guarantor shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it to any holder of any Note under this Section 10.1 on the date such payment is due hereunder, full and
prompt payment of the interest on the amount of such payment, at the rate of interest then in effect with respect to overdue payments of principal or interest on the Notes concerned, from the date such payment was required to be made until the same
is actually paid to such holder. The Guarantee provided for herein is a guarantee of the immediate and timely payment and performance of the obligations guaranteed hereby and shall not be deemed to be a guarantee of the collectability of such
payments and that in consequence thereof each holder of the Notes may sue the Guarantor directly. 
  
 The Guarantor hereby waives any right to require that any action on or in respect of any Note or this Agreement be brought against the Company or that
resort be had to any direct or indirect security for the Notes of the Company or any other remedy. Any holder of any Note may, at its option, proceed hereunder against the Guarantor in the first instance to collect monies when due, the payment of
which is guaranteed hereby, without first proceeding against the Company or any other Person and without first resorting to any direct or indirect security for the Notes of the Company or any other remedy. The liability of the Guarantor hereunder
shall in no way be affected or impaired by any acceptance or release by any holder of any Note or any direct or indirect security for, or other guaranties of, any indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Company or any other Person to any holder
of any Note or by any failure, delay, neglect or omission by any holder of any Note to realize upon or protect any such indebtedness, liability or obligation or any notes or other instruments evidencing the same or any direct or indirect security
therefor or by any estoppel, consent, waiver, or other action taken, or omitted to be taken, by such holder. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of the Guarantor hereunder shall in no event exceed the amount which
can be guaranteed by the Guarantor under applicable laws relating to the insolvency of debtors. 
  
 10.2 Guarantor Consent. 
  
 The Guarantor hereby consents and agrees that any holder of any Note from time to time, with or without any further notice to or assent from the Guarantor may, without in any manner affecting the liability of the Guarantor, and upon such
terms and conditions as such holder may deem advisable: (1) extend in whole or in part (by renewal or otherwise), modify, change, compromise, release or extend the duration of the time for the performance or payment of, any indebtedness, liability
or obligation of the Company or of any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any indebtedness, liability or obligations of the Company on the Notes, or waive any default with respect thereto, or, with the consent of the Company to the
extent required by the terms thereof, waive, modify, amend or change any provision of this Agreement or the Notes; (2) sell, release, surrender, modify, impair, exchange or substitute any and all property, of any nature and from whomsoever received,
held by, or on behalf of, any such holder 
  

 51 

 as direct or indirect security for the payment or performance of any indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Company
or of any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for such indebtedness, liability or obligation; and (3) settle, adjust or compromise any claim of the Company against any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any indebtedness,
liability or obligation of the Company on the Notes. The Guarantor hereby ratifies and confirms any such extension, renewal, change, sale, release, waiver, surrender, exchange, modification, amendment, impairment, substitution, settlement,
adjustment or compromise and agrees that the same shall be binding upon it, and hereby waives any and all defenses, counterclaims or offsets which it might or could have by reason thereof, it being understood that the Guarantor shall at all times be
bound by this Guarantee and remain liable hereunder in accordance with its terms. 
  
 10.3 Character of Obligations of Guarantor. 
  
 (a) The Guarantor hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of this Guarantee by the holders of the Notes or of the creation, renewal or accrual of any liability of the Company, present or future, or of the reliance of the holders of the
Notes upon this Guarantee (it being understood that every indebtedness, liability and obligation described in Section 10.1 hereof shall conclusively be presumed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon the execution of this
Guarantee); (ii) demand of payment by the holders of the Notes from the Company or any other Person indebted in any manner on or for any of the indebtedness, liabilities or obligations hereby guaranteed; and (iii) presentment for payment by the
holders of the Notes or any other Person of the Notes of the Company or any other instrument, protest thereof and notice of its dishonor to any party thereto and to the Guarantor. 
  
 (b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Guarantor shall not be discharged or impaired
or otherwise affected by: 
  

	 	(A)	any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance by the Company of any obligations of any kind or character whatsoever of the Company (including, without
limitation, the obligations and undertakings of the Company under this Agreement); 

  

	 	(B)	any creditors’ rights, bankruptcy, receivership or other insolvency proceeding of the Company or any other Person or in respect of the property of the Company or any other
Person or any merger, consolidation, reorganization, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company or any other Person; 

  

	 	(C)	impossibility or illegality of performance on the part of the Company of its obligations under the Notes, this Agreement, any Note Purchase Document or any other instruments or
documents; 

  

	 	(D)	the validity or enforceability of the Notes, this Agreement, any Note Purchase Document or any other instruments or documents; 

  

	 	(E)	in respect of the Company or any other Person, any change of circumstances, whether or not foreseen or foreseeable, whether or not imputable to the Company or any other Person, or
other impossibility of performance through fire, explosion, accident, labor disturbance, floods, droughts, embargoes, wars (whether or not 

  

 52 

 declared), civil commotions, acts of God or the public enemy, delays or failure of suppliers or carriers,
inability to obtain materials, action of any federal or state regulatory body or agency, change of law or any other causes affecting performance, or any other force majeure, whether or not beyond the control of the Company or any other
Person and whether or not of the kind hereinbefore specified; 
  

	 	(F)	any attachment, claim, demand, charge, lien, order, process, encumbrance or any other happening or event of reason, similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, or any withholding or
diminution at the source, by reason of any taxes, assessments, expenses, indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of any character, foreseen or unforeseen, and whether or not valid, incurred by or against any Person, or against any sums payable
under this Guarantee, so that such sum would be rendered inadequate or would be unavailable to make the payments herein provided; 

  

	 	(G)	any order, judgment, decree, ruling or regulation (whether or not valid) of any court of any nation or of any political subdivision thereof or any body, agency, department, official
or administrative or regulatory agency of any thereof or any other action, happening, event or reason whatsoever, which shall delay, interfere with, hinder or prevent, or in any way adversely affect, the performance by any party of its respective
obligations under this Agreement, any Note, any Note Purchase Document or any instrument relating thereto; 

  

	 	(H)	any sale of all or any part of the Capital Stock of the Company; 

  

	 	(I)	the failure of the Guarantor to receive any benefit from or as a result of its execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee; or 

  

	 	(J)	any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Guarantor in respect of its obligations under this Guarantee.

  
 10.4 Absolute and Unconditional Obligation. 

 
 The liability of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be absolute,
direct, immediate, irrevocable and unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee and the rights of the holders of the Notes to enforce such obligations by any proceedings, whether by action at law, suit in equity or otherwise,
shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination, whether by reason of any claim of any character whatsoever or otherwise, including, without limitation, claims of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and
shall not be subject to any defense, set-off, counterclaim (other than any compulsory counterclaim), recoupment or termination whatsoever. 
  
 10.5 Waiver of Subrogation and Contribution. 
  
 The Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, at all times prior to the payment in full of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder, any claim or
other rights which it may now or hereunder acquire against the Company that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee or any other agreement, 
  

 53 

 including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, or
any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any holder of the Notes against the Company, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including without limitation, the right to take or
receive from the Company, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the
preceding sentence at any time prior to the payment in full of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to the Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the holders of
the Notes and shall forthwith be paid to the holders of the Notes to be credited and applied pro rata upon the Notes whether matured or unmatured. 
  
 10.6 Preference. 
  
 The Guarantor agrees that to the extent the Company or the Guarantor makes any payment on the Notes or under this Guarantee, as the case may be, which
payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, voided, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered, rescinded or is required to be retained by or repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any bankruptcy
code, common law, or equitable cause, then and to the extent of such payment, the obligation or the part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect with respect to the Guarantor’s obligation
hereunder, as if said payment had not been made. 
  
 11. LIMITED PUT RIGHT.

  
 Within thirty (30) days from the date on which the
Company mails notice pursuant to Section 8.10(f), each holder of Notes shall have the right to put all or a portion of its Notes to the Company (the “Fundamental Change Put”), and the Company shall be obligated to repurchase such
Notes, on the date which is sixty (60) days after the notice was mailed for an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of repurchase. 
  
 12. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. 
  
 An “Event of Default” shall exist if any of the following conditions or events shall occur and be
continuing: 
  
 (a) the Company defaults in the payment of any
principal, Prepayment Premium, Make-Whole Amount, if any, or payment on account of a Fundamental Change Put on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by declaration or otherwise; or

  
 (b) the Company defaults in the payment of any interest on any

of Default” under and as defined in any Account Control Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing; or 
  
 (d) a failure (i) to keep in force insurance required by Section 8.5(b), or (ii) to comply with and conform to all provisions and requirements of the
insurance policies and the insurers thereunder which would affect the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ ability to keep in force the insurance required by Section 8.5(b) or to collect any proceeds therefrom, or (iii) to comply with any
provision of Section 8.5(c); or 
  
 (e) the General Partner, the
Guarantor or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries defaults in the performance of or compliance with any term applicable to it contained herein (other than those referred to in paragraphs (a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 12) or any other Note
Purchase Document and such default is not remedied within thirty (30) days (or, in the case of any other Note Purchase Document, such shorter grace period as is expressly provided therein) after the earlier of (i) a Responsible Officer obtaining
actual knowledge of such default and (ii) the Guarantor, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries receiving written notice of such default from the Required Holders (any such written notice to be identified as a “notice of default” and to
refer specifically to this paragraph (e) of Section 12); or

instrument or agreement under which such Indebtedness was created; or (iii) default in the observance or performance of any other agreement or condition relating to any such Indebtedness or contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing,
securing or relating thereto, or any other event shall occur or condition exist, the effect of which default or other event or condition is to cause, or to permit the holder or beneficiary of such Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of
such holder or beneficiary) to cause, with the giving of notice if required, such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity or (in the case of any such Indebtedness constituting a Guarantee Obligation) to become payable;
provided, that a default, event or condition described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph (g) shall not at any time constitute an Event of Default unless, at such time, one or more defaults, events or conditions of the type
described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph (g) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to Indebtedness the outstanding principal amount of which exceeds in the aggregate, in the case of clause (x) of this paragraph (g),
$10,000,000, and in the case of clauses (y) and (z) of this paragraph (g), $25,000,000; or

period of sixty (60) days; or (iii) there shall be commenced against the General Partner, the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Guarantor, including the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any case, proceeding or other action seeking issuance of a

appeal within sixty (60) days from the entry thereof; or (iv) the General Partner, the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Guarantor, including the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, shall take any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent

event or condition, together with all other such events or conditions, if any, could, in the reasonable judgment of the Required Holders, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or 
  
 (j) (i) one or more judgments or decrees shall be entered against the
General Partner, the Guarantor or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries involving in the aggregate a liability (not 
  

 56

Guarantee or any guarantee entered into by a Subsidiary pursuant to Section 8.13 shall cease, for any reason, to be in full force and effect or the General Partner, the Guarantor, the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate thereof shall so assert.

  
 13. REMEDIES ON DEFAULT, ETC. 
  
 13.1 Acceleration. 
  
 (a) If an Event of Default described in paragraph (h) of Section 12 has occurred, the outstanding Commitments, if any, shall
immediately terminate and all Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable. 
  
 (b) If any other Event of Default has occurred, the Required Holders, by notice to the Company, may take either or both of the following actions: (i)
declare the outstanding Commitments, if any, to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Commitments shall immediately terminate; and (ii) declare all Notes (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other
Note Purchase Documents to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon all Notes and other such amounts shall immediately become due and payable. 
  
 (c) If any Event of Default described in paragraph (a) or (b) of Section 12 has occurred and is continuing, any holder of Notes affected by such Event of
Default may at any time, at its option, by notice to the Company, declare all the Notes held by it to be immediately due and payable. 
  
 Upon any Notes becoming automatically due and payable under this Section 13.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature
and the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes, plus (x) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and (y) the Prepayment Premium, in the case of the Series A Notes, and the Make-Whole Amount, in the case of the Series B Notes, determined
in respect of such principal amount and in accordance with Section 7.3 (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of

  

 57 

 which are hereby waived. The Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right
to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a Prepayment Premium, in the case of the Series A Notes, or a Make-Whole Amount, in the
case of the Series B Notes, by the Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances. 
  
 13.2 Other Remedies. 
  
 If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether the Notes have become or have
been declared immediately due and payable under Section 13.1, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether
for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.

  
 If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the holders of the Series B Notes may exercise the remedies provided in any and all Account Control Agreements. 
  
 13.3 No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, etc. 
  
 No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any Holder in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise
prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or
hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the Company under Section 16, the Company will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs
and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 13, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements. 
  
 13.4 No General Partner’s Liability. 
  

Notwithstanding any other provision contained in the Note Purchase Documents to the contrary, the Purchasers agree for themselves and any subsequent
holder of any Note by acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee) shall be deemed to have agreed, that any claim against the Company which may arise under this Agreement, any Note or any other Note Purchase Document
shall be made only against and shall be limited to the assets of the Company and the Guarantor, and that no judgment, order or execution entered in any suit, action or proceeding, whether legal or equitable, on this Agreement, such Note or any of
the other Note Purchase Documents shall be obtained or enforced against the General Partner or its assets for the purpose of obtaining satisfaction and payment of such Note, the Indebtedness evidenced thereby or any claims arising thereunder or
under this Agreement or any other Note Purchase Document, any right to proceed against the General Partner individually or its respective assets being hereby expressly waived, renounced and remitted by the holders of the 
  

 58 

 Notes. Nothing in this Section 13.4, however, shall be construed so as to prevent any holder of any Note from commencing
any action, suit or proceeding with respect to or causing legal papers to be served upon the General Partner for the purpose of obtaining jurisdiction over the Guarantor or the Company or enforcing the obligations of the General Partner or the
Company hereunder. 
  
 14. REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES.

  
 14.1 Registration of Notes. 
  
 The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the
registration and registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register. Prior to due
presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to
the contrary. The Company shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor, promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes. 
  
 14.2 Transfer and Exchange of Notes. 
  
 Upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of the Company
for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or his attorney duly
authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested
by the holder thereof) of the same series in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be
substantially in the form of Exhibit A, in the case of a new Series A Note, or Exhibit B, in the case of a new Series B Note. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered
Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes
shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $1,000,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $1,000,000. Any
transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in Section 6.2. 
  
 Upon registration of transfer in accordance with this Section 14.2, (i) the transferee shall be deemed a “holder”
hereunder with respect to the transferred Notes and shall become a party to this Agreement and shall have all of the rights and obligations of a holder hereunder (except for purposes of the representation contained in Section 6.1) and under the
other Note Purchase Documents and (ii) except as otherwise provided therein, the transferor shall relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under the Note Purchase Documents to the extent of the interests so transferred.

 14.3 Replacement of Notes. 
  
 Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction
or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and 
  
 (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $100,000,000, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity
shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or 
  
 (b) in the case of
mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, 
  
 the Company at its own
expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of the same series, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost,
stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. 
  
 15. PAYMENTS ON NOTES. 
  
 So long as each
Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, the Prepayment Premium and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest by the method and at the address specified for such
purpose below its name in Schedule A-1 and Schedule A-2, or by such other method or at such other address as it shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or
the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender its Note for cancellation, reasonably
promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by any Purchaser or its nominee it will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid
thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 14.2. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 15 to any Institutional
Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by any Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as such Purchaser has made in this Section 15. 
  
 16. EXPENSES, ETC. 
  
 Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company agrees (a) to pay or reimburse all
out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the fees of special and local counsel to the Purchasers) incurred by each Purchaser, each holder of Notes, the Collateral Agent and the Account Agent in connection with the development, preparation and
execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, or waivers or consents in 
  

 60 

 respect of, this Agreement and the other Note Purchase Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith
or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Account Agent and the Collateral Agent and filing and recording fees and expenses, if
any, with statements with respect to the foregoing to be submitted to the Company prior to each Closing Date (in the case of amounts to be paid on a Closing Date) and from time to time thereafter on a quarterly basis or such other periodic basis as
the Account Agent or the Required Holders shall deem appropriate, (b) to pay or reimburse each holder and the Account Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of (or determining whether or how
to enforce or preserve) any rights under this Agreement, the other Note Purchase Documents and any such other documents, including the fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) to each holder
or to the Account Agent, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each holder harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other taxes, if any, that
may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent
under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Note Purchase Documents and any such other documents and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold each holder and their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents and controlling persons
(each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to
the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Note Purchase Documents and any such other documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Notes or the violation of,
noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Properties and the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or
proceedings by any Indemnitee against the Guarantor or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under any Note Purchase Document (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided,
that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the General Partner, the Guarantor and the Company agrees
not to assert, and to cause each Subsidiary of the Company not to assert, and hereby waives, and agrees to cause each Subsidiary of the Company to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims,
demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. All amounts due under
this Section 16 shall be payable not later than ten (10) days after written demand therefor. The agreements in this Section 16 shall survive: transfer or sale of Notes by a holder and repayment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder;
the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, any Note Purchase Document or the Notes; and the termination of this Agreement or any Note Purchase Document. 
  

 61 

 17. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT. 
  
 All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Note Purchase Documents, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder
of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of any Purchaser or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any other Note Purchase Document, any certificate or any other instrument delivered by or on
behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement and the other Note Purchase Documents embody the entire agreement
and understanding between the Purchasers and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. 
  
 18. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. 
  
 18.1 Requirements. 
  
 This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term thereof may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only
with) the written consent of the Guarantor, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries (in each case, to the extent a party thereto) and the Required Holders and, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 10, 16, 21 or 23 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any holder of Notes unless consented to by such holder of Notes in writing, (b) no amendment or waiver may release any Subsidiary from its guarantee
obligations undertaken pursuant to Section 8.13, in each case without the written consent of all holders of the Notes, (c) no amendment or waiver may reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Holders without the consent of all
holders of the Notes and (d) no such amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 13 relating to acceleration, change the amount or
time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of interest or of the Prepayment Premium or Make-Whole Amount on, the Notes or (ii) amend any of Sections 7, 12(a), 12(b),
13, 18 or 22. 
  
 18.2 Solicitation of Holders of Notes. 
  
 (a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the Notes
(irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed
amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 18 to each
holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes. 
  

 62 

 (b) Payment. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration,
whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security, to any holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of Notes or any waiver or amendment of any of the
terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each holder of Notes hereby consents, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.4 to: 
  
 (i) the Company prepaying the full outstanding principal amount of Series A Notes, together with the Prepayment Premium and any unpaid interest due and
owing thereon, in each case in accordance with Section 7.3(a); 
  
 (ii) the Company paying the Amendment Fee to the holders of the Series B Notes in accordance with Section 4.4(e); 
  
 (iii) the potential increase in the interest rate on the Series B Notes in accordance with Section 3.1; and 
  
 (iv) the Company granting the security interests pursuant to Sections 3.2,
4.4, 5.18 and 8.6. 
  
 18.3 Binding Effect, etc. 
  
 Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 18 applies
equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Company, the Guarantor and the General Partner without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No
such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between or among the Company, the
Guarantor and the General Partner and the holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note. As used herein, the term “this
Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented. 
  
 18.4 Notes held by Company, etc. 
  
 Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved
or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement, the Notes, the Mortgages or the Security Agreement, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the
holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding. 
  

 63 

 18.5 [Intentionally Omitted.] 
  
 18.6 Release of Collateral, Termination of Security Agreements etc. 
  
 (a) Each holder of Notes hereby consents, subject to Section 18.6(b) below and the prior satisfaction of the conditions
precedent set forth in Section 4.4, to: 
  
 (i) the release by
the Collateral Agent of all Collateral previously pledged to the Collateral Agent on behalf of the holders of the Notes including, without limitation, all funds held in any account pursuant to the Collateral Agency Agreement; 
  
 (ii) the termination of each of the Security Documents and the Collateral
Agency Agreement; and 
  
 (iii) the transfer by the Collateral
Agent of all funds currently held by the Collateral Agent in account number 131453-099, in accordance with the Company’s instructions. 
  
 (b) Nothing in this Section 18.6 shall affect the rights and interests of any holder of a Series B Note with respect to the Cash Escrow Account, the
Condemnation and Insurance Proceeds Account (if any) or under any Account Control Agreement. 
  
 (c) The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized by each holder of Notes, subject to the prior satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.4, to take any action reasonably requested by the Company to
give effect to the releases, terminations and transfers consented to by each such holder in Section 18.6(a) above. 
  
 19. NOTICES. 
  
 All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent (a) by telecopy if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy
of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested (postage prepaid), or (c) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid). Any such
notice must be sent: 
  
 (i) if to any Purchaser or its nominee,
to such Purchaser or its nominee or it at the address specified for such communications in Schedule A-1 and Schedule A-2, or at such other address as such Purchaser or its nominee shall have specified to the Company in writing, 
  
 (ii) if to any other holder of any Note, to such holder at such address as
such other holder shall have specified to the Company in writing, or 
  
 (iii) if to the Company, the Guarantor or the General Partner, to such entity at One Williams Center, Suite 2800, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74172 or at such other address as the Company shall have specified to the holder of each Note in writing.

  
 Notices under this Section 19 will be deemed given only when
actually received. 
  

 64 

 20. REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. 
  
 This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications
that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by any Purchaser at the Closing (except the Notes themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to any holder of Notes, may be
reproduced by such holder by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, microcard, miniature photographic or other similar process and any holder may destroy any original document so reproduced. Each of the Company, the Guarantor and the General
Partner agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and
whether or not such reproduction was made by any holder in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 20 shall not prohibit the
Company or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction. 
  
 21. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. 
  
 For the purposes of this Section 21, “Confidential
Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of the General Partner, the Guarantor, or the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement or any other Note
Purchase Document that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by such Purchaser as being confidential information of the General Partner, the Guarantor or the Company,
provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser
or any person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the General Partner, the Guarantor or the Company or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such
Purchaser under Section 8.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser in receipt of Confidential Information will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by it in good faith to
protect confidential information of third parties delivered to it provided that each Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates (to the extent such
disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by the Notes), (ii) its financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with
the terms of this Section 21, (iii) any other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which such Purchaser sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior
to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 21), (v) any Person from which such Purchaser offers to purchase any security of the Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of
such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 21), (vi) any federal or state regulatory 
  

 65 

 authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any
similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w)
to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes
and this Agreement; provided that prior to disclosing any such Confidential Information pursuant to clauses (viii)(w) and (x), such Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to give prior notice to the General Partner, the Guarantor and the
Company. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 21 as though it were a party to this Agreement. 
  
 22. SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER. 
  
 Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates
as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and its Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this
Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word “Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than
in this Section 22), such word shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of the Purchaser. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to the original Purchaser all of
the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, wherever the word “Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 22), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such
Affiliate, but shall refer to the original Purchaser, and such Purchaser shall have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement. 
  
 23. MISCELLANEOUS. 
  
 23.1 Successors and Assigns. 
  
 All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a
Note) whether so expressed or not. 
  
 23.2 Severability. 
  
 Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the
full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
  

 66 

 23.3 Construction. 
  
 Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein,
so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is
prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person. 
  
 23.4 Counterparts. 
  
 This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one
instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto. 
  
 23.5 Governing Law. 
  
 This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York
excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would require the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State. 
  
 23.6 Submission to Jurisdiction. 
  
 Each of the General Partner, the Guarantor and the Company agree that, if judicial proceedings are brought by any holder of Notes to enforce any right or
remedy under this Agreement, any Note or any other Note Purchase Document, no immunity from such proceedings will be claimed by or on behalf of the General Partner, the Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be, or with respect to its property.
With respect to any such suit, action or proceeding which may be brought by any holder of Notes, each of the General Partner, the Guarantor and the Company hereby consents to submit to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court of competent
jurisdiction sitting within the area comprising the Southern District of New York on the date of this Agreement and waives any objection which it may have to the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court and any claim or defense
of inconvenient forum. Each of the General Partner, the Guarantor and the Company irrevocably appoints CT Corporation, with offices at 111 Eighth Avenue, New York, New York 10011, from the Initial Closing Date to and including October 7, 2008, as
its authorized agent upon which process may be served in any such suit, action or proceeding and CT Corporation hereby accepts such appointment. The General Partner, the Guarantor and the Company will take any and all action, including the execution
and filing of all such documents and instruments, as may be necessary to effect and continue the appointment of such agent in full force and effect, or if necessary by reason of any fact or condition relating to such agent, to replace such agent
(but only after having given notice thereof to each holder of Notes) during the period in which any Notes are outstanding. Each of the General Partner, the Guarantor and the Company agrees that service of process upon such agent and written notice
of such service given to the General Partner, the Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be, shall be deemed in every respect 
  

 67 

 effective service of process upon the General Partner, the Guarantor or the Company in any such suit, action or
proceeding in any such court. In making the foregoing appointment and submission to jurisdiction, each of the General Partner, the Guarantor and the Company expressly waives the benefit of any contrary provisions of law. Nothing in this Section 23.6
shall affect the right of any holder of Notes to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the General Partner, the Guarantor or the Company in any court in which the General
Partner, the Guarantor or the Company is subject to suit. 
  
 23.7 Judgment
Currency. 
  
 In respect of any judgment or order given or
made for any amount due hereunder that is expressed and paid in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than U.S. dollars, the General Partner, the Guarantor and the Company, severally, will indemnify each Purchaser against any
material loss incurred by it as a result of any variation between (i) the rate of exchange at which the U.S. dollar amount is converted into the Judgment Currency for the purpose of such judgment or order and (ii) the rate of exchange at which such
Purchaser is able to purchase U.S. dollars with the amount of judgment currency actually received by such Purchaser. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the General Partner, the Guarantor and the Company
and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid. The term “rate of exchange” shall include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase or conversion into
U.S. dollars. 
  
 * * * * * 
  

 68 

 Each Purchaser in agreement with the foregoing, please sign the form of agreement on the accompanying
counterpart of this Agreement and return it to the Company, whereupon the foregoing shall become a binding agreement between such Purchaser, the General Partner, the Guarantor and the Company.

Subject Agreements, also hereby fully and completely covenants not to sue, waives and releases and forever discharges the Williams Parties and their respective members, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns, and their
affiliates, subsidiaries and their respective members, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns from any and all past, present or future causes of action, rights of contribution or indemnification obligations that are
environmental in nature on the part of any of the Williams Parties or any of their affiliates in favor of any of the Magellan Parties arising under the Subject Agreements, any other written or oral agreements among the parties or under applicable
law with respect to the assets, businesses or properties of the Magellan Parties or their affiliates or predecessors that arise out of or that are a result of facts, occurrences, conditions, events or circumstances (collectively,
“Occurrences”) that occur before the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) without regard to the date of discovery of such Occurrences, including without limitation (i) the breach of or failure to comply with or
liability arising under any Environmental Laws (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), (ii) the presence of Hazardous Materials (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in, or their release into the air, surface or subsurface soils or in the
groundwater at, on, in, under or in the vicinity of the assets, businesses or properties of the Magellan Parties or (iii) the matters listed on Schedule 4.1.2 hereto, notwithstanding the fact in any such case that the Occurrence giving rise
to such cause of action, obligation or right may also involve the breach of a provision of any of the Subject Agreements that is not subject to the release contained in the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.1(a) and which is not released
under this Section 4.1(a). 
  
 For the avoidance of doubt,
Schedule 4.1.3 hereto provides examples of the types of Claims or other matters that would be subject to the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph and this Section 4.1 if such Claims or other matters arise out of, are caused by or
result of from, whether directly or indirectly, an Occurrence that is environmental in nature. However, also for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph and this Section 4.1 do not reach and are not
intended to release or discharge the Williams Parties or their respective members, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns, or their affiliates, subsidiaries or their respective members, officers, directors, employees, agents,
successors or assigns from any past, present or future causes of action, rights of contribution or indemnification obligation arising under the Subject Agreements, any other written or oral agreements among the parties or under applicable law in
connection with the Excluded Assets (as defined in the Contribution Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or the Contribution, Conveyance and Assumption Agreement, dated February 9, 2001, entered into in connection with the initial public offering of
MMP).

 (b) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Section 4.1 shall require MMP to indemnify and
defend, save and hold the Williams Parties and their affiliates harmless against any Claim (as defined below) by a third-party arising out of, resulting from or any of the matters covered by the provisions of Section 4.1(a) above as to which
the Magellan Parties provided a release pursuant to this Section 4.1. 
  
 (c) For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Section 4.1 shall include any damage, judgment, fine, penalty, demand, settlement, liability, loss, cost, expense (including
attorneys’, consultants’ and experts’ fees) claim or cause of action whether fixed, contingent or unliquidated, including but not limited to the Comprehensive, Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. 9601
et seq., as now or as hereafter amended (“CERCLA”) or any similar or successor Federal law or any state equivalent to CERCLA, as may now or hereafter be in effect. 
  
 Section 4.2 Discharge and Settlement of Obligations 
  
 (a) This Agreement settles and is in satisfaction of all past, present and future indemnification obligations set forth in
Section 4.1 on the part of the Williams Parties or any affiliate thereof in favor of Magellan Parties, any of their affiliates, successors or assigns with respect to any damage, judgment, fine, penalty, demand, settlement, liability, loss,
cost, expense, claim, suit or cause of action (including reasonable attorneys’, consultants’ or experts’ fees related thereto) of any kind or nature whatsoever, both known and unknown, except for the performance by Williams Parties of
their obligations as set forth in this Agreement. 
  
 (b) For
purposes of clarity, this Agreement has no effect on (i) MMH’s obligations under Section 8.2(b) of the Purchase Agreement, (ii) MMH’s obligations to MMP under Section 1.3(e) and Section 8.2(c) of the Purchase Agreement or (iii) MMP’s
obligations under Section 10.2 of the Contribution Agreement. 
  
 Section 4.3 Indemnification Relating to Certain Matters 
  
 (a) MMP agrees to indemnify and defend, save and hold the Williams Parties and their affiliates harmless if any such Williams Party or affiliate thereof shall suffer any damage, judgment, fine, penalty, demand,
settlement, liability, loss, cost, expense, claim, suit or cause of action (including reasonable attorneys’ fees related thereto) (collectively, a “Claim”) filed by, arising out of, resulting from or relating to (i) the Claims
set forth on Schedule 4.3(a) hereto, and (ii) any current or former employees of the Williams Parties or any of their predecessors, subsidiaries or affiliates as to whom 50% or more of their work assignment was to perform work or services
benefiting for or on behalf of Magellan GP, MMP or any of their predecessors, subsidiaries or affiliates (“Subject Parties”) subsequent to February 9, 2001 or pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement, dated June 17, 2003,
between Williams and MMH; provided, however, that such Claim arose out of or occurred during the performance of work or services performed by such current or former employees for the benefit or on behalf of such Subject Parties. To the extent
allowable under applicable law, the Williams Parties shall provide MMP copies of those portions of the employment files for any employee for which the Williams Parties seeks indemnification from under this Section 4.3 that are necessary for
the defense of such Claim and shall fully cooperate in responding to any reasonable request for 
  

 - 8 - 

 access to data, employees or other information necessary to the defense of the matter; provided, however, MMP will
comply with all applicable confidentiality requirements with respect to any such files, data or information so provided. If the Williams Parties do not provide MMP with such necessary portions of the employee files relating to any such Claim, the
indemnification obligations of MMP under this Section 4.3 relating to such Claim shall be extinguished. The foregoing indemnification obligations of MMP shall not be reduced as a result of the availability of insurance coverage under policies
held by the Williams Parties; provided, however, the Williams Parties will use commercially reasonable efforts (which, in all cases, for purposes of this Agreement shall not require any party to file or initiate any judicial claim or action),
to pursue claims under any applicable insurance policies held by the Williams Parties that may provide coverage in connection with the defense or resolution of any matter covered under this Section 4.3. Any amounts recovered by the Williams
Parties pursuant to any such claim shall be paid to MMP, provided, that such amounts paid shall in no event exceed that total amount expended by MMP in connection with its indemnification obligations hereunder less any out-of-pocket costs and
expenses paid to third parties by the Williams Parties in connection with pursuing such claim. This Section 4.3(a) does not apply to any employee benefit matters and in no way waives, limits or resolves, in whole or in part, the
indemnification obligations of the Williams Parties for breaches of the representation and warranty contained in (i) Section 3.12(c) of the Contribution Agreement and, (ii) to the extent they relate to employee benefit matters, Section 3.12 (d) of
the Contribution Agreement or Section 4.3 of the Purchase Agreement. 
  
 (b) With respect to the matters set forth on Schedule 4.3(b) hereto, MMP shall bear the costs of defending the Williams Parties and the Magellan Parties against the claims asserted in that case up to final resolution of the matter.
In the event that Williams determines that it needs separate counsel in the matters set forth on Schedule 4.3(b) hereto, it shall be entitled to retain one at its own costs and expense. The costs of satisfying any settlement or judgment in
those matters shall be determined by reference to the evidence concerning the parties’ respective liability for the claims asserted. MMP shall be responsible for that portion of the matters on Schedule 4.3(b) hereto that relate to work
or services benefiting the Subject Parties and the Williams Parties shall be responsible for that portion of such matters that relate to work or services that do not benefit the Subject Parties. In the event that the parties are not able to
agree upon their respective liability for the claims asserted, they shall initiate a mediation of the dispute using Judge Thomas A. Brett, or if unavailable a substitute mediator mutually agreeable to the parties, and shall be bound by such
mediator’s decision regarding their respective shares of the liability for the claims asserted and the costs of any settlement or judgment entered shall be allocated according to those shares. 
  
 ARTICLE V 
  
 PRIOR OBLIGATIONS, COSTS, EXPENSES AND INSURANCE 
  
 Section 5.1 Payment of Costs and Expenses 
  
 Each party to this Agreement shall be solely responsible for the payment of

provided for said party prior to the Effective Date.

 Section 5.2 Notice to Service Providers 
  
 The Williams Parties have entered into certain contracts with third parties
for services or goods in connection with or arising out of the matters covered under Section 4.1 and Section 4.3 above. The Williams Parties shall give notice to all such third parties to such contracts to the effect that MMP will be
administering these matters after the Effective Date, and MMP and entities controlled by MMP may contact and/or enter into contracts with any of such third parties for the provisions of the same or similar services or goods after the Effective Date.
This Section 5.2 above does not apply to any legal counsel retained by the Williams Parties. 
  
 Section 5.3 Procedures for Transfer of Matters and Litigation Currently Managed by Williams to Magellan Parties 
  
 The Williams Parties shall cooperate with MMP and provide appropriate and
timely assistance in the transfer to MMP of all matters and litigation covered under Section 4.1 and Section 4.3 above that are currently managed by Williams, including all matters that are listed on Schedule 2.16 to the Purchase
Agreement. The Williams Parties shall direct any legal counsel retained by the Williams Parties to provide copies of their files, correspondence, date and records to the Magellan Parties so long as the Williams Parties are advised by such or other
legal counsel that the provision of any of such files, correspondence, date and records would not jeopardize the ability of the Williams Parties to maintain attorney-client privilege as to third parties with respect to the matters to which such
files relate. The Williams Parties will consider in good faith any request by the Magellan Parties that both such parties enter into or execute a joint defense agreement satisfactory to both parties. 
  
 Section 5.4 Insurance and Other Receivables 
  
 (a) Beginning on the Effective Date, the Williams Parties shall make a
written request to the appropriate insurers that they consent to the assignment and transfer to the entity designated by MMP, all of the Williams Parties’ rights and interests, including the rights and interests of any beneficiaries, held under
the MMP Policies. In addition, the Williams Parties shall request in writing to such insurers that the MMP Policies be amended to reflect MMP and its subsidiaries as primary named insureds. Any proceeds received from insurance claims under the MMP
Polices assigned or transferred under this Section 5.4(a) that have not been completely settled between the insurance carrier and the policy owner or beneficiary that were filed prior to the Effective Date shall be for the benefit of MMP or
its designee; provided, however, the Williams Parties or any affiliate thereof shall be promptly reimbursed by MMP for any out-of-pocket costs and expenses paid to third parties in connection with the receipt of such proceeds. From and after the
Effective Date, the Williams Parties shall have no obligation to provide any insurance coverage or benefits to the Magellan Parties, their affiliates or their business or properties. 
  
 (b) The provisions of Section 1.1(b) above shall apply to any amounts paid to the Magellan Parties
(“Third-Party Receivables”) in settlement or to satisfy a judgment (excluding, for clarity purposes, any insurance proceeds from the MMP Policies referred to in Section 5.4(a)) arising out of any request, claim or action
made, controlled or filed by the Magellan Parties or Williams Parties or any affiliates thereof but only to the extent that such 
  

 - 10 - 

 request, claim or action is covered by the indemnity provisions of the Subject Agreements as to which the Magellan
Parties are herein providing a release pursuant to Section 4.1. The Magellan Parties shall promptly provide notice to the Williams Parties of any Third-Party Receivables collected under this Section 5.4(b) and shall provide the
Williams Parties a full accounting related to such third party receivables from the Magellan Parties, within 60 days of a request by the Williams Parties. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.4, nothing in this Agreement shall have any effect on the Williams Parties
obligations under Section 4.23 (WEG Insurance Continuation) of the Purchase Agreement.

 Control 
  
 (a) Subject to Item 2 on Schedule 4.1.1, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in any of the Subject Agreements, subject to the requirements
of Subsection (c) of this Schedule 6.1 below, from and after the Effective Date the Magellan Parties shall have the sole authority to conduct and control the investigation or remediation of any site and the defense, settlement or resolution of any
claim, action or matter in connection with or arising out of any matters covered under Sections 4.1 and 4.3 of the Agreement. 
  
 (b) Subject to Item 2 on Schedule 4.1.1, with respect to all sites, proceedings, claims, actions or matters in connection with or arising out of any
matters covered under Sections 4.1 and 4.3 of the Agreement and as to which the Williams Parties are currently involved, or in the future are named by any third party, subject to the requirements of Subsection (c) of this Schedule 6.1 below, the
Williams Parties hereby covenant from and after the Effective Date as follows: 
  
 (i) the Magellan Parties shall have the sole authority to conduct and control the defense or resolution of any such sites, proceedings, matters, claims or actions, including sole responsibility to pay any fees, costs
or expenses of counsel or any other advisors, consultants or third parties engaged in connection therewith; 
  
 (ii) the Williams Parties shall not initiate or engage in any discussions with third parties or any Governmental Authority about any such sites,
proceedings, matters, claims without the knowledge of the Magellan Parties, except in the case of communications by the Williams Parties with their insurance carriers; 
  
 (iii) the Williams Parties agree to be represented by counsel for the Magellan Parties unless the applicable rules of ethics
prevent the dual representation of the Williams Parties and the Magellan Parties by common counsel; and 
  
 (iv) the Williams Parties, where necessary, shall use all commercially reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the Magellan Parties in their handling or
resolution of any such sites, proceedings, matters or claims. 
  
 (c) The provisions of subsection (b) of this Schedule 6.1 shall not apply to the defense or resolution of the matter relating to the Environmental Protection Agency’s Request for Information and the Williams Parties’ January 2001
responses as well as the letter, dated March 11, 2004, from the U.S. Department of Justice received by MMP concerning potential violations of the Clean Water Act insofar as they concern the assets, business and properties of the Magellan Parties
(the “308 Matter”) and instead the following provisions shall apply: 
  
 (i) counsel for the Williams Parties, at the sole cost and expense of the Williams Parties, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to fully participate in preparing the defense of this matter, including
providing advice to the Parties regarding procedural, substantive 

 and strategic decisions, which the Magellan Parties shall consider in good faith, taking into consideration the
respective interests of the parties and their mutual interests in maintaining and preserving good relationships and their good-standing and reputation with federal and state regulators. In addition, James Scheel (or such other person to which the
Magellan Parties consent, not to be unreasonably withheld), on behalf of the Williams Parties, and counsel for the Williams Parties (to which the Magellan Parties consent, not to be unreasonably withheld), shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to attend all meetings, telephone conferences or other types of communications between the Magellan Parties or any governmental agencies, including any presentations in person to any such governmental agencies. The Magellan Parties shall
