WHEREAS, on or before the date hereof the Issuer has issued several series of Debt Securities pursuant to previous supplements to the Base Indenture; and

WHEREAS, the Issuer has duly authorized and desires to cause to be issued pursuant to the Indenture, two new series of Debt Securities (collectively, the “Notes”), designated as set forth in this Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture; and

WHEREAS, all of the Notes will be guaranteed by the Parent Guarantor as provided in Article XIV of the Original Indenture; and

NOW, THEREFORE, the Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the Trustee hereby agree that the following provisions shall supplement the Base Indenture:

ARTICLE I

THE NOTES

SECTION 1.1 Form.

(1) The 2.800% Senior Notes due 2021 (as defined below) and the related Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A to this Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture; and

Such Exhibits A and B are hereby incorporated into this Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture. The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture, and to the extent applicable, the Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby.

The Notes shall be issued only as Registered Securities. The Notes shall be issued upon original issuance in whole in the form of one or more Global Securities (the “Book-Entry Notes”). Each Book-Entry Note shall represent such of the Outstanding Notes as shall be specified therein and shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Book-Entry Note to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee in accordance with written instructions or such other written form of instructions as is customary for the Depositary, from the Depositary or its nominee on behalf of any Person having a beneficial interest in the Book-Entry Note.

in each case, upon delivery to the Trustee of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes.

With respect to each series of the Notes, the Issuer may, without the consent of the Holders of the applicable series of Notes, issue additional Notes so that the additional Notes may be consolidated and form a single series with the applicable series of Notes issued on the date hereof and have the same terms (except for the issue date, the public offering price and, if applicable, the initial Interest Payment Date) as to ranking, maturity, redemption or otherwise, provided that such additional Notes shall be fungible with the previously issued Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The Stated Maturity of each series of the Notes shall be as follows:

2.800% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2021

 

1. Interest.

The Issuer promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate of 2.800% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy laws) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) and on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the same rate per annum, in each case to the extent lawful.

 

2. Method of Payment.

The Issuer shall pay interest on the Securities (except Defaulted Interest) to the persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for (“Defaulted Interest”) may be paid to the persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, or in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may then be listed if such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee, as more fully provided in the Indenture. The Issuer shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of a Global Security (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depositary. Payments in respect of Securities in definitive form (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within The City of New York, which initially will be the corporate trust office of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association at Corporate Trust, Municipal & Escrow Solutions, 150 East 42nd Street, 40th Floor, New York, New York 10017, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders on the relevant record date at their addresses set forth in the Debt Security Register of Holders or at the option of the Holder, payment of interest on Securities in definitive form will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to any account maintained in the United States, provided such Holder has requested such method of payment and provided timely wire transfer instructions to the paying agent. The Holder must surrender this Security to a paying agent to collect payment of principal.

 

3. Paying Agent and Registrar.

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association will act as paying agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any paying agent or Registrar at any time upon notice to the Trustee and the Holders. The Issuer may act as paying agent.

 

4. Indenture.

Reference is made hereby to (i) the Indenture dated as of October 4, 2004 (the “Original Indenture”) among Enterprise Products Operating L.P., as issuer (the “Original Issuer”), Enterprise Products Partners L.P., as parent guarantor (the “Parent Guarantor”), and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), (ii) the Tenth Supplemental Indenture thereto dated as of June 30, 2007 (the “Tenth Supplemental Indenture”), among the Original Issuer, the Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the Trustee, providing for the Issuer as the successor issuer and (iii) the Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture thereto dated as of February 15, 2018 (the “Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the Trustee, providing for the issuance of Debt Securities of the series whose designation appears on the face hereof. The Original Indenture, as amended and supplemented by the Tenth Supplemental Indenture and the Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture, and as may be further duly amended and supplemented in accordance with the terms thereof, is referred to herein as the “Indenture.” Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Indenture.

 

A-4


This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Debt Securities of the series designated by the Issuer as “2.800% Senior Notes due 2021” (such series of Debt Securities being referred to herein as the “Securities”), all of which are issued or to be issued under and pursuant to the Indenture. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture, and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”). The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Securities are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms and a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the Holder hereof. If and to the extent any provision of the Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with any other provision of the Indenture that is required to be included in the Indenture or is deemed applicable to the Indenture by virtue of the provisions of the TIA, such required provision shall control.

 

5. Optional Redemption.

The Securities are redeemable, at the option of the Issuer, at any time in whole, or from time to time in part, at a redemption price (the “Make-Whole Price”) equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed; or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (at the rate in effect on the date of calculation of the Make-Whole Price) on the Securities to be redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”)), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Yield plus 10 basis points; plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

The actual Make-Whole Price, calculated as provided above, shall be calculated and certified to the Trustee and the Issuer by the Independent Investment Banker.

For purposes of determining the Make-Whole Price, the following definitions are applicable:

“Treasury Yield” means, with respect to any Redemption Date applicable to the Securities, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity (computed as of the third Business Day immediately preceding such Redemption Date) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the applicable Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities to be redeemed (the “Remaining Life”), that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the Remaining Life of the Securities to be redeemed; provided, however, that if no maturity is within three months before or after the maturity date for such Securities, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to such United States Treasury security will be determined and the treasury rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight line basis rounding to the nearest month.

“Independent Investment Banker” means any of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. and their respective successors or, if no such firm is willing and able to select the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Trustee and reasonably acceptable to the Issuer.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (a) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for the Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (b) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

 

A-5


“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. so long as it is a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) at the relevant time and, if it is not then a Primary Treasury Dealer, then a Primary Treasury Dealer selected by it, and in each case their respective successors, plus a Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Issuer; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall not be a Primary Treasury Dealer at such time and shall fail to select a Primary Treasury Dealer, then the Issuer will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date for the Securities, an average, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue for the Securities (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to an Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

Except as set forth above, the Securities will not be redeemable prior to their Stated Maturity and will not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

Securities called for optional redemption become due on the Redemption Date. Notices of optional redemption will be mailed at least 10 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Securities to be redeemed at its registered address. The notice of optional redemption for the Securities will state, among other things, the amount of Securities to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, the Make-Whole Price (or the method of calculating such Make-Whole Price), and the place(s) that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of Securities to be redeemed. Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the Make-Whole Price, interest will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date with respect to any Securities that have been called for optional redemption. If less than all the Securities are redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select the Securities to be redeemed on a pro rata basis, by lot, or by such other method the Trustee deems fair and appropriate.

The Securities may be redeemed in part in multiples of $1,000 only. Any such redemption will also comply with Article III of the Indenture.

 

6. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

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

 

7. Person Deemed Owners.

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

 

8. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.

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

 

A-6


9. Defaults and Remedies.

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

 

10. Trustee Dealings with Issuer.

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

 

11. Authentication.

This Security shall not be valid until the Trustee signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Security.

 

12. Abbreviations and Defined Terms.

13. CUSIP Numbers.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Note Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Securities as a convenience to the Holders of the Securities.

Each Holder by accepting the Securities waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Securities.

 

16. Governing Law.

This Security shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

[REVERSE OF SECURITY]

ENTERPRISE PRODUCTS OPERATING LLC

4.250% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2048

 

1. Interest.

The Issuer promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate of 4.250% per annum. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy laws) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) and on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the same rate per annum, in each case to the extent lawful.

 

2. Method of Payment.

The Issuer shall pay interest on the Securities (except Defaulted Interest) to the persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for (“Defaulted Interest”) may be paid to the persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, or in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may then be listed if such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee, as more fully provided in the Indenture. The Issuer shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of a Global Security (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depositary. Payments in respect of Securities in definitive form (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within The City of New York, which initially will be the corporate trust office of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association at Corporate Trust, Municipal & Escrow Solutions, 150 East 42nd Street, 40th Floor, New York, New York 10017, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders on the relevant record date at their addresses set forth in the Debt Security Register of Holders or at the option of the Holder, payment of interest on Securities in definitive form will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to any account maintained in the United States, provided such Holder has requested such method of payment and provided timely wire transfer instructions to the paying agent. The Holder must surrender this Security to a paying agent to collect payment of principal.

 

3. Paying Agent and Registrar.

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association will act as paying agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any paying agent or Registrar at any time upon notice to the Trustee and the Holders. The Issuer may act as paying agent.

 

4. Indenture.

Reference is made hereby to (i) the Indenture dated as of October 4, 2004 (the “Original Indenture”) among Enterprise Products Operating L.P., as issuer (the “Original Issuer”), Enterprise Products Partners L.P., as parent guarantor (the “Parent Guarantor”), and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), (ii) the Tenth Supplemental Indenture thereto dated as of June 30, 2007 (the “Tenth Supplemental Indenture”), among the Original Issuer, the Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the Trustee, providing for the Issuer as the successor issuer and (iii) the Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture thereto dated as of February 15, 2018 (the “Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the Trustee, providing for the issuance of Debt Securities of the series whose designation appears on the face hereof. The Original Indenture, as amended and supplemented by the Tenth Supplemental Indenture and the Thirtieth Supplemental Indenture, and as may be further duly amended and supplemented in accordance with the terms thereof, is referred to herein as the “Indenture.” Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Indenture.

 

B-4


This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Debt Securities of the series designated by the Issuer as “4.250% Senior Notes due 2048” (such series of Debt Securities being referred to herein as the “Securities”), all of which are issued or to be issued under and pursuant to the Indenture. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture, and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”). The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Securities are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms and a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the Holder hereof. If and to the extent any provision of the Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with any other provision of the Indenture that is required to be included in the Indenture or is deemed applicable to the Indenture by virtue of the provisions of the TIA, such required provision shall control.

 

5. Optional Redemption.

At any time prior to August 15, 2047 (the “Par Call Date”), the Securities are redeemable, at the option of the Issuer, at any time in whole, or from time to time in part, at a redemption price (the “Make-Whole Price”) equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed; or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (at the rate in effect on the date of calculation of the Make-Whole Price) on the Securities to be redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”)) that would have been due if the Securities had matured on the Par Call Date, discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Yield plus 20 basis points; plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

At any time on or after the Par Call Date, the Securities are redeemable, at the option of the Issuer, at any time in whole, or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date (“Redemption Price”).

The actual Make-Whole Price, calculated as provided above, shall be calculated and certified to the Trustee and the Issuer by the Independent Investment Banker.

For purposes of determining the Make-Whole Price, the following definitions are applicable:

“Treasury Yield” means, with respect to any Redemption Date applicable to the Securities, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity (computed as of the third Business Day immediately preceding such Redemption Date) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the applicable Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities to be redeemed, calculated as if the maturity date of the Securities were the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”), that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the Remaining Life of the Securities to be redeemed; provided, however, that if no maturity is within three months before or after the Par Call Date for such Securities, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to such United States Treasury security will be determined and the treasury rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight line basis rounding to the nearest month.

“Independent Investment Banker” means any of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. and their respective successors or, if no such firm is willing and able to select the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Trustee and reasonably acceptable to the Issuer.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (a) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for the Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (b) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

 

 

B-5


“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. so long as it is a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) at the relevant time and, if it is not then a Primary Treasury Dealer, then a Primary Treasury Dealer selected by it, and in each case their respective successors, plus a Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Issuer; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall not be a Primary Treasury Dealer at such time and shall fail to select a Primary Treasury Dealer, then the Issuer will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date for the Securities, an average, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue for the Securities (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to an Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

Except as set forth above, the Securities will not be redeemable prior to their Stated Maturity and will not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

Securities called for optional redemption become due on the Redemption Date. Notices of optional redemption will be mailed at least 10 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Securities to be redeemed at its registered address. The notice of optional redemption for the Securities will state, among other things, the amount of Securities to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, the Make-Whole Price (or the method of calculating such Make-Whole Price) or the Redemption Price, as the case may be, and the place(s) that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of Securities to be redeemed. Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the Make-Whole Price or Redemption Price, as the case may be, interest will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date with respect to any Securities that have been called for optional redemption. If less than all the Securities are redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select the Securities to be redeemed on a pro rata basis, by lot, or by such other method the Trustee deems fair and appropriate.

The Securities may be redeemed in part in multiples of $1,000 only. Any such redemption will also comply with Article III of the Indenture.

 

6. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

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

 

7. Person Deemed Owners.

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

 

8. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended or supplemented, and any existing Event of Default or compliance with any provision may be waived, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of each series affected. Without consent of any Holder of a Security, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture to, among other things, cure any ambiguity or omission, to correct any defect or inconsistency, or to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Security. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security (unless revoked as provided in the

 

B-6


Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Security and any Securities which may be issued in exchange or substitution herefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made upon this Security or such other Securities.

 

9. Defaults and Remedies.

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

 

10. Trustee Dealings with Issuer.

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

 

11. Authentication.

This Security shall not be valid until the Trustee signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Security.

 

12. Abbreviations and Defined Terms.

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

 

13. CUSIP Numbers.

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

 

14. Absolute Obligation.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Security in the manner, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

 

B-7


15. No Recourse.

The general partner of the Parent Guarantor and its directors, officers, employees and members, as such, shall have no liability for any obligations of any Guarantor or the Issuer under the Securities, the Indenture or any Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting the Securities waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Securities.

 

16. Governing Law.

This Security shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

 

17. Guarantee.

The Securities are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured, unsubordinated basis by the Parent Guarantor as set forth in Article XIV of the Indenture, as noted in the Notation of Guarantee to this Security, and under certain circumstances set forth in the Original Indenture one or more Subsidiaries of the Parent Guarantor may be required to join in such guarantee.

 

18. Reliance.

The Holder, by accepting this Security, acknowledges and affirms that (i) it has purchased the Security in reliance upon the separateness of Parent Guarantor and the general partner of Parent Guarantor from each other and from any other Persons, including Enterprise Products Company (formerly EPCO, Inc.), and (ii) Parent Guarantor and the general partner of Parent Guarantor have assets and liabilities that are separate from those of other Persons, including Enterprise Products Company.
