4. Procedure for Borrowing. Borrower may borrow in amounts of not less than $50,000.00, and in additional multiples of not less than $5,000.00, by giving written notice to Lender. Each borrowing shall be requested with a same-day notice by 10:00 a.m. the day of the proposed borrowing. The interest rate on all borrowings will be the one month Eurodollar Rate (as such term is defined in that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of May 20, 2005 among The Williams Companies, Inc., Northwest Pipeline Corporation, Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation, and Williams Partners L.P. as Borrowers, and Citicorp USA, Inc. as Administrative Agent as it may be amended or restated from time to time (the “Williams Companies Credit Agreement”)) determined the date of the borrowing. The borrowings may be repaid prior to the end of the one-month interest period without breakage or similar costs. If any borrowing is not repaid within one month, the interest rate will be adjusted to the current one month Eurodollar Rate upon the expiration of the one month interest period set forth above and upon the expiration of each one month interest period thereafter so long as such borrowing is outstanding.

5. Revolving Nature and Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may increase or decrease loans under this Agreement by making drawdowns, repayments and further drawdowns.

6. Conditions of Loans. The obligation of Lender to make the loans described herein is subject to the following conditions:

     (a) Default has not occurred and is continuing;

     (b) the proceeds of the proposed loan disbursement are, at the date of the relevant request, needed by the Borrower for working capital purposes, as reasonably determined by Borrower.

7. Interest. The Borrower promises to pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of any borrowing on the earlier to occur of (i) the last day of each fiscal quarter of Borrower that such borrowing is outstanding, or (ii) the date that the applicable borrowing is repaid. All payments of principal and interest shall be payable in lawful currency of the United States of America at the office of the Lender as provided above or such other address as the holder hereof shall have designated to the Borrower, in immediately available funds.

8. Prepayment. Borrower may prepay all or part of any amounts outstanding hereunder at any time without payment of penalty. Any partial prepayment, however, shall be applied against unpaid installments outstanding hereunder in the inverse order of maturity beginning with the shortest maturity and shall not be made in amounts of less than $5,000.

9. Default. Borrower shall be in default (“Default”) if any of the following events occur and continue:

     (a) It becomes insolvent or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they mature; applies for, consents to, or acquiesces in the appointment of a trustee or receiver for any of its property; in the absence of an application, consent, or acquiescence a trustee or receiver is appointed for it or a substantial part of its property and is not discharged within 60 days; it otherwise commits an act of bankruptcy; or any bankruptcy, reorganization, debt arrangement, or

other proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or any dissolution or liquidation proceeding, is instituted by or against it and if instituted is consented to or acquiesced in by it or remains for 60 days undismissed;

     (b) It defaults in the performance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and such default continues for 30 days after notice thereof from Lender; or

10. Acceleration at Option of Lender. If any of the events listed in paragraph 9(a), (b), or (c) occur and continue, Lender may declare the amounts outstanding under this Agreement immediately due and payable, at which time all unpaid installments shall immediately become due and payable. Lender shall promptly advise Borrower in writing of any acceleration under this paragraph, but the failure to do so shall not impair the effect of a subsequent declaration.

11. Cross-References to Williams Companies Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event (i) there is a default under the Williams Companies Credit Agreement, and/or (ii) the Williams Companies Credit Agreement or the commitments of the lenders to make loans thereunder are terminated for any reason, Lender and Borrower agree that any provision in this Agreement that relies on cross-references to the Williams Companies Credit Agreement shall be interpreted as if the Williams Companies Credit Agreement was not in default and was in full force and effect, the intention of the parties to this Agreement being that Borrower shall, following such default and/or termination, have the right to continue to make revolving borrowings under this Agreement at the interest rates and upon the other terms and conditions so cross-referenced as if such default and/or termination had not occurred with respect to the Williams Companies Credit Agreement. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the reduction in, or termination of, the commitments under the Williams Companies Credit Agreement or the failure or refusal of the lenders under the Williams Companies Credit Agreement to make loans thereunder for any reason, including, without limitation, due to a default thereunder and/or the termination thereof, shall not affect Lender’s obligations to make loans under this Agreement.
