ARTICLE II

FORM OF INVESTMENT

2.1    Qualifying Investment. On each Investment Date, Southcross Holdings shall (a) inform SXE of its Qualifying Investment Securities Election and (b) contribute the applicable Investment Amount to SXE by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Upon receipt of the applicable Investment Amount, SXE shall issue the applicable Qualifying Investment Securities to Southcross Holdings corresponding to its Qualifying Investment Securities Election.

2.2    Substitution by Sponsor. If and only if, after it receives an Investment Notice, Southcross Holdings’ cash on hand is less than the applicable Investment Amount required to be contributed by Southcross Holdings on the applicable Investment Date, Southcross Holdings shall, within 1 calendar day, issue a written demand (a “Backstop Demand”) under the Backstop Investment Commitment Letter for each Sponsor to fund their respective pro-rata portions of the shortfall (or such larger amount as the Sponsors party to the Backstop Investment Commitment Letter unanimously agree in their respective sole discretion), which such demand shall specify the shortfall amount with reasonably detailed supporting calculations (each a “Sponsor Shortfall Amount”); provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, either of the Administrative Agent or SXE may issue a Backstop Demand if Southcross Holdings fails to fund all or any portion of the applicable Investment Amount required to be contributed by Southcross Holdings on the applicable Investment Date, in which case the Sponsor Shortfall Amount shall be the amount that Southcross Holdings fails to fund. Each Sponsor may elect, in its sole discretion and in lieu of contributing such Sponsor Shortfall Amount to Southcross Holdings (which such contribution is subject to the terms and conditions of the limited partnership agreement of Southcross Holdings), to fund its Sponsor Shortfall Amount directly to SXE as a Qualifying Investment, in which case, on the Investment Date, such Sponsor shall (a) make a Qualifying Investment Securities Election and (b) contribute the applicable Sponsor Shortfall Amount to SXE by wire transfer of immediately available funds, and SXE shall issue to such Sponsor Qualifying Investment Securities corresponding to such Sponsor’s Qualifying Investment Securities Election; provided, that if a Credit Event shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of the applicable Full Investment Trigger or Partial Investment Trigger, as

6

the case may be, each Sponsor shall fund its Sponsor Shortfall Amount directly to SXE as a Qualifying Investment as set forth in this sentence and may not fund its Sponsor Shortfall Amount to Southcross Holdings. Any amounts funded by any Sponsor pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall reduce, on dollar for dollar basis, (a) the Investment Amount Southcross Holdings is required to fund on the applicable Investment Date and (b) the Committed Amount, but in each case only to the extent such amount is actually received by SXE. Southcross Holdings or SXE, as applicable, shall deliver a copy of each Backstop Demand sent by such Person to the Administrative Agent concurrently with delivery thereof to the Sponsors. For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed that, to the extent that Southcross Holdings has any cash on hand on the applicable Investment Date and does not use such cash to make a Qualifying Investment in SXE (without the consent of each Sponsor), the Sponsors shall have a valid claim for damages against Southcross Holdings of not less than the lessor of (a) the amount of such cash on hand and (b) the applicable Investment Amount.

2.3    Cure by Sponsor. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any breach or failure by Southcross Holdings to fund any Investment Amount under this Agreement may be cured by one or more Sponsors (acting separately or together), in their respective sole discretion, if such Sponsor or Sponsors funds or fund, as applicable, the entire Investment Amount as though it were a Sponsor Shortfall Amount pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2 within thirteen (13) Business Days of delivery of the applicable Investment Notice.

ARTICLE III

MISCELLANEOUS

3.1    Consent to Pledge; Loan Document. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (including without limitation, Section 3.4), Southcross Holdings hereby consents to the pledge by SXE of all of its rights under this Agreement as Collateral in favor of (i) the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement and (ii) the Term Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) pursuant to the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement). SXE and Holdings acknowledge that this Agreement is a Loan Document.

3.2    Governing Law; Jury Trial Waiver. Etc.. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects, including as to validity, interpretation and effect, by the laws of the State of New York, New York County, without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws, to the extent such principles are not mandatorily applicable by statute and would permit or require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, in the City of New York (and in the absence of federal jurisdiction, the parties hereto consent to be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County) solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement, and irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement, or with respect to any action or proceeding hereunder, shall be heard and determined in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, in the City of New York (and in the absence of federal jurisdiction, the parties hereto consent to be subject to the exclusive

7

jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County), and that such jurisdiction of such courts with respect thereto shall be exclusive, except solely to the extent that all such courts shall lawfully decline to exercise such jurisdiction. Each party hereto hereby waives and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof, that it is not subject to such jurisdiction. Each party hereto hereby waives and agrees not to assert, to the maximum extent permitted by law, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof, that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such courts, that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts. The parties hereto hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and over the subject matter of any such dispute. THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER OF THEM AGAINST THE OTHER IN ANY MATTERS ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

3.3    Third-Party Beneficiaries. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are intended solely for the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors or permitted assigns, and it is not the intention of the Parties to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other Person; provided, however, each of Southcross Holdings and SXE acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent and each Sponsor shall have right to enforce this Agreement on behalf of SXE, including by means of specific performance as provided in Section 3.12, at the sole cost and expense of SXE and reimbursable to the Administrative Agent or such Sponsor pursuant to Section 3.12.

3.4    Assignment; Waiver. Except as provided in Section 3.1, no Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any waiver of a breach of any of the terms of this Agreement or of any default hereunder shall be in writing and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default and shall in no way affect the other terms of this Agreement. No failure to exercise and no relaxation, forbearance, indulgence or delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege of that Party under this Agreement and no course of dealing among the Parties shall be construed or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

3.5    Entire Agreement; Severability. This Agreement supersedes all prior discussions and agreements between the Parties and/or their respective affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof and contains the sole and entire agreement between the Parties and their respective affiliates hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance, shall be declared judicially to be invalid, unenforceable or void, such decision shall not have the effect of invalidating or voiding the remainder of this Agreement, it being the intent and agreement of the Parties that this Agreement shall be deemed amended to modify such provision to the extent necessary to render it valid, legal and enforceable while preserving its intent or, if such modification is not possible, by substituting therefor another provision that is valid, legal and enforceable and that achieves the same objective.

8

3.6    Termination of Existing Contribution Agreement. Upon the occurrence of Effective Date and the consummation of the Initial Investment, the Existing Contribution Agreement is hereby terminated and of no further force or effect.

3.7    Amendment. This Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an instrument in writing signed by the Parties; provided, however, that no amendment, modification or supplement which modifies or affects the rights or obligations of any Sponsor shall be effective without the consent of each such Sponsor.
