(v) make any capital expenditure in excess of $2,000,000 other than capital expenditures reflected on Schedule 6.2(v) and other than reasonable capital expenditures in connection with any emergency or force majeure events affecting M&NE US;

(vii) incur any Indebtedness for Borrowed Money or issue or sell any equity interests, notes, bonds or other securities of M&NE US (except for intercompany loans from Spectra Energy Corp or its Affiliates), or any option, warrant or right to acquire same;

(viii) adopt any profit sharing, compensation, savings, insurance, pension, retirement or other benefit plan or hire any employees;

(xi) terminate or close any facility, business or operation of M&NE US except in the ordinary course of business; or

(xii) agree, whether in writing or otherwise, to do any of the foregoing.

Section 6.3 Access. From the date hereof through the Closing, MLP GP shall afford, or, in the case of M&NE US, use Reasonable Efforts to afford, to Spectra MLP and its authorized Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours and in such manner as not unreasonably to interfere with normal operation of the Business, to the properties, books, Contracts, records and appropriate officers and employees of each of MLP GP’s Affiliates who provide services to WEUS or M&NE US, and shall furnish such authorized Representatives with all financial and operating data and other information concerning the affairs of WEUS and M&NE US as Spectra MLP and such Representatives may reasonably request. MLP GP shall have the right to have a Representative present at all times during any such inspections, interviews, and examinations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Spectra MLP shall have no right of access to, and MLP GP shall not have any obligation to provide to Spectra MLP, information relating to (a) any information the disclosure of which would jeopardize any privilege available to WEUS, M&NE US, MLP GP or any of their respective Affiliates relating to such information or (b) any information the disclosure of which would result in a violation of Law.

Section 6.4 Third Party Approvals.

(a) Spectra MLP shall (and shall cause its subsidiaries to) use Reasonable Efforts to obtain all material consents and approvals of third parties that Spectra MLP or any of its subsidiaries are required to obtain in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Spectra MLP Approvals.

(b) MLP GP shall (and shall cause its Affiliates (other than Spectra MLP and its subsidiaries) to) use Reasonable Efforts to obtain all material consents and approvals of third parties that MLP GP or any of its Affiliates (other than Spectra MLP and its subsidiaries) are required to obtain in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the MLP GP Approvals.

Section 6.5 Restructuring. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, MLP GP shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (other than Spectra MLP and its subsidiaries) to, use Reasonable Efforts to cause the Restructuring to be consummated prior to the Closing Date, including making all filings with respect thereto and seeking all approvals required in connection therewith; provided, however, that MLP GP shall not be obligated to effect or consent to any action that would have a material adverse effect on Spectra Energy Corp or any of its Affiliates.

Section 6.6 Update Information. At any time up to 10 days before the Closing, MLP GP shall supplement in writing any information furnished on the Disclosure Schedule to reflect post-signing developments and matters that have come to the Knowledge of MLP GP (which if not included on a Schedule would constitute a breach of this Agreement by MLP GP) by furnishing such supplemented information to Spectra MLP pursuant to the notice provisions hereof. If (a) MLP GP so furnishes supplemental information, (b) the absence of such information would have resulted in a breach of any representation or warranty under this Agreement and (c) the Closing occurs, then such information shall be deemed to amend this Agreement and the Disclosure Schedule for all purposes hereunder; provided, however, that if such supplemental disclosure relates to matters that would or would reasonably be expected to result in Losses to Spectra MLP in excess of $10,000,000 in the aggregate, then such information shall not be deemed to amend this Agreement and the Disclosure Schedule for purposes of indemnification hereunder.

Section 6.7 Books and Records. From and after the Closing, Spectra MLP shall preserve and keep a copy of all books and records (other than Tax records which are addressed in Article VII) relating to the business or operations of WEUS on or before the Closing Date in Spectra MLP’s possession for a period of at least seven years after the Closing Date. After such seven year period, before Spectra MLP shall dispose of any such books and records, Spectra MLP shall give MLP GP at least 90 days prior notice to such effect, and MLP GP shall be given an opportunity, at its cost and expense, to remove and retain all or any part of such books and records as MLP GP may select. Spectra MLP shall provide to MLP GP, at no cost or expense to MLP GP, reasonable access during business hours to such books and records as remain in Spectra MLP’s possession and reasonable access during business hours to the properties and employees of Spectra MLP in connection with matters relating to the business or operations of WEUS on or before the Closing Date and any disputes relating to this Agreement.

Section 6.8 Straddle Period.

(a) With respect to any distribution of cash by M&NE US after the Closing Date related to a period of time that includes, but does not end on, the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), Spectra MLP shall, promptly upon its receipt of any such cash distribution attributable to the 38.76% limited liability company interests in M&NE US owned by WEUS, pay MLP GP an amount in cash equal to the product of (A) the amount of such cash distribution attributable to such 38.76% limited liability company interest in M&NE US and (B) the quotient of (i) the number of days in the period beginning on the first day of the Straddle Period and ending on and including the Closing Date and (ii) the total number of days in the Straddle Period.

(b) Spectra MLP and MLP GP agree that any payment by Spectra MLP pursuant to Section 6.8(a) would be characterized as MLP GP’s retention of the right to its share of the cash distribution by M&NE US for the Straddle Period.

Section 6.9 Recourse Debt.

(a) Immediately prior to the Closing, Spectra MLP shall borrow an amount equal to the Cash Distribution under indebtedness that constitutes an MLP GP Recourse Liability in a manner such that the proceeds of such borrowing are allocable to the Cash Distribution pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-5(b)(1) and Temporary Treasury Regulation 1.163-8T (such borrowing, and any “refinancing” of such borrowing treated as the liability it refinances pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-5(c), the “Transaction Debt”, and together with all other indebtedness of Spectra MLP that constitutes an MLP GP Recourse Liability, the “Spectra MLP Debt”).

(b) The Parties intend that the Cash Distribution paid to MLP GP shall qualify as a “debt-financed transfer” not taken into account as part of a “disguised sale” of property contributed to Spectra MLP under Treasury Regulation Sections 1.707-3 and 1.707-5(b).

(c) For a period of four years following the Closing Date, the Parties shall ensure (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to ensure) that MLP GP’s “allocable share” of (i) the Transaction Debt will not be less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Transaction Debt outstanding immediately after the Closing and (ii) the Spectra MLP Debt will not be less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Spectra MLP Debt outstanding immediately after the Closing.

(d) The Parties shall act at all times in a manner consistent with the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.9, except with the prior written consent of MLP GP or as otherwise required by applicable Law following a final determination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or a Governmental Authority with competent jurisdiction.

Section 6.10 Spectra MLP Equity Offerings. Spectra MLP shall not, and shall cause its subsidiaries not to, use Spectra MLP Restricted Equity Proceeds for any purposes other than the funding of capital expenditures of Spectra MLP or any of its subsidiaries (including any acquisitions, mergers or joint ventures).

Section 6.11 Net Worth of MLP GP. MLP GP will maintain a net value (as determined pursuant to the principles of Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-2(k)(2), applying those principles as if MLP GP were a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes) that is not less than the principal amount of the Spectra MLP Debt outstanding immediately after the Closing, which amount will be reduced by principal payments by Spectra MLP on such indebtedness and which amount will not be increased by any new borrowings by Spectra MLP.

ARTICLE VII

TAX MATTERS

Section 7.1 Tax Returns.

(a) The Parties agree that the income of M&NE US indirectly attributable to the Contributed Interests will be reflected on the consolidated federal income Tax Return of Spectra Energy Corp for the period up to and including the Closing Date, and will be reflected on the federal income Tax Return of Spectra MLP for the period after the Closing Date, by closing the books of M&NE US as of the end of the Closing Date.

(b) The Parties shall cooperate fully, and cause their Affiliates to cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, to accomplish the apportionment of income described pursuant to this Section 7.1 (including, among other things, directing their representatives to the Management Committee of M&NE US to carry out this agreement), requests for the provision of any information or documentation within the knowledge or possession of the other Party as reasonably necessary to facilitate compliance with financial reporting obligations arising under FASB Statement No. 109 (including compliance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48), and any audit, litigation or other proceeding (each a “Tax Proceeding”) with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include access to, the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any Tax Return or Tax Proceeding, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Spectra MLP will and MLP GP will, and will use Reasonable Efforts to cause M&NE US to, retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to M&NE US relating to any taxable period beginning before the Effective Time until the later of six years after the Effective Time or the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations of the respective taxable periods (including any extensions thereof), and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax Authority. Spectra MLP and MLP GP each agree, upon request, to use Reasonable Efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Tax Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 7.2 Transfer Taxes. Responsibility for the payment of all state and local transfer, sales, use, stamp, registration or other similar Taxes resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne 50% by Spectra MLP and 50% by MLP GP.

Section 7.3 Tax Indemnity.

(a) MLP GP shall be liable for, shall pay and shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Spectra MLP and its subsidiaries from and against all Losses such parties incur arising from (i) any breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.12, (ii) any Taxes of MLP GP or its Affiliates arising as a result of ownership of the Contributed Interests prior to the Effective Time, (iii) any Taxes arising as a result of the Restructuring and (iv) any liability of WEUS or M&NE US for the Tax of another Person as a result of being (A) a member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group or (B) a party to any Tax Sharing Agreement or another Contract providing for an obligation to indemnify any other Person for Tax. Spectra MLP shall be solely liable for, shall pay and shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless MLP GP and its Affiliates (other than Spectra MLP and its subsidiaries) from any and all Taxes which arise as a result of the ownership of the Contributed Interests after the Closing Date.

(b) If any claim (an “Indemnified Tax Claim”) is made by any Tax Authority that, if successful, would result in indemnification of any Party (the “Tax Indemnified Party”) by another Party (the “Tax Indemnifying Party”) under this Section 7.3, the Tax Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event later than the earlier of (i) 45 days after receipt of notice from the Tax Authority of such claim or (ii) 15 days prior to the date required for the filing of any protest of such claim, notify the Tax Indemnifying Party in writing of such fact.

(c) The Tax Indemnifying Party (in cooperation with the other members of M&NE US pursuant to the documents governing the management of the affairs of M&NE US) shall control all decisions with respect to any Tax Proceeding involving an Indemnified Tax Claim and the Tax Indemnified Party shall take such action (including settlement with respect to such Tax Proceeding or the prosecution of such Tax Proceeding to a determination in a court or other tribunal of initial or appellate jurisdiction) in connection with a Tax Proceeding involving an Indemnified Tax Claim as the Tax Indemnifying Party shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including the selection of counsel and experts and the execution of powers of attorney; provided, however, that (i) within 30 days after the notice required by Section 7.3(b) has been delivered (or such earlier date that any payment of Taxes with respect to such claim is due but in no event sooner than five days after the Tax Indemnifying Party’s receipt of such notice), the Tax Indemnifying Party requests that such claim be contested, and (ii) if the Tax Indemnified Party is requested by the Tax Indemnifying Party to pay the Tax claimed and sue for a refund, the Tax Indemnifying Party shall have advanced to the Tax Indemnified Party, on an interest-free basis, the amount of such claim. The Tax Indemnified Party shall not make any payment of an Indemnified Tax Claim for at least 30 days (or such shorter period as may be required by Law) after the giving of the notice required by Section 7.3(b) with respect to such claim, shall give to the Tax Indemnifying Party any information requested related to such claim, and otherwise shall cooperate with the Tax Indemnifying Party in order to contest effectively any such claim.

Section 7.4 Scope. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Article VII shall be the exclusive remedy for any claims relating to Taxes (including any claims relating to representations respecting Tax matters including Section 4.12). The rights under this Article VII shall survive the Closing until 30 days after the expiration of the statute of limitations (including extensions) applicable to such Tax matter. No claim may be made or brought by any Party hereto after the expiration of the applicable survival period unless such claim has been asserted by written notice specifying the details supporting the claim on or prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period.

(b) All covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement to be performed after the Closing will survive the Closing in accordance with their terms.

Section 9.2 Indemnification.

(a) Subject to Article VII relating to Taxes and the provisions of this Article IX, from and after the Closing, MLP GP shall indemnify and hold harmless Spectra MLP, Spectra MLP’s subsidiaries and their respective Representatives (the “Spectra MLP Indemnified Parties”) from and against all Losses that Spectra MLP Indemnified Parties incur arising from any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of MLP GP in this Agreement or in any closing certificate to be delivered by MLP GP at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) Subject to Article VII relating to Taxes and the provisions of this Article IX, from and after the Closing, Spectra MLP shall indemnify and hold harmless MLP GP and its Affiliates (other than Spectra MLP and its subsidiaries) and their respective Representatives (the “MLP GP Indemnified Parties”) from and against all Losses that the MLP GP Indemnified Parties incur arising from or out of any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Spectra MLP in this Agreement or any closing certificate to be delivered by Spectra MLP at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Parties shall have a duty to use Reasonable Efforts to mitigate any Loss arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Article IX to the contrary, all Losses relating to Taxes which are the subject of Article VII shall only be subject to indemnification under Section 7.3.

Section 9.3 Indemnification Procedures. Claims for indemnification under this Agreement (other than claims involving a Tax Proceeding, the procedures for which are set forth in Article VII) shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a) Any Spectra MLP Indemnified Party or MLP GP Indemnified Party claiming indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any claim asserted against the Indemnified Party by a third party (“Third Party Claim”) in respect of any matter that is subject to indemnification under Section 9.2 shall promptly (i) notify the Party providing the indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the Third Party Claim and (ii) transmit to the Indemnifying Party a written notice (“Claim Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Third Party Claim, a copy of all papers served with respect to such claim (if any), the Indemnified Party’s best estimate of the amount of Losses attributable to the Third Party Claim and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement. Failure to timely provide such Claim Notice shall not affect the right of the Indemnified Party’s indemnification hereunder, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay or omission.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend such Third Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party (who shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party), by all

appropriate proceedings, to a final conclusion or settlement at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party in accordance with this Section 9.3(b). The Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement agreement without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, further, that such consent shall not be required if (i) the settlement agreement contains a complete and unconditional general release by the third party asserting the claim to all Indemnified Parties affected by the claim and (ii) the settlement agreement does not contain any sanction or restriction upon the conduct of any business by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party elects to contest, including the making of any related counterclaim against the Person asserting the Third Party Claim or any cross complaint against any Person. The Indemnified Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 9.3(b), and the Indemnified Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.3(b), then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, and be reimbursed for its reasonable cost and expense (but only if the Indemnified Party is actually entitled to indemnification hereunder) in regard to the Third Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnified Party (who shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party), by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be prosecuted diligently by the Indemnified Party. In such circumstances, the Indemnified Party shall defend any such Third Party Claim in good faith and have full control of such defense and proceedings; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may not enter into any compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim if indemnification is to be sought hereunder, without the Indemnifying Party’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 9.3(c), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(d) Subject to the other provisions of this Article IX, a claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third Party Claim may be asserted by notice to the Party from whom indemnification is sought.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.3, the indemnification procedures set forth in Article VII shall control any indemnities relating to Taxes.

Section 9.4 Additional Agreements Regarding Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein:

(a) a breach of any representation or warranty (other than with respect to a breach of the Fundamental Representations and Warranties) of MLP GP in this Agreement in connection with any single item or group of related items that results in Losses of less than $30,000 shall be deemed, for all purposes of this Article IX not to be a breach of such representation, warranty or pre-closing covenant;

(b) MLP GP shall not have any liability arising out of or relating to Section 9.2(a) for breaches of representations or warranties (other than with respect to a breach of the Fundamental Representations and Warranties) except if the aggregate Losses actually incurred by the Spectra MLP Indemnified Parties thereunder exceed 1.0% of the Dropdown Aggregate Value, and then, subject to Section 9.4(c), only to the extent such aggregate Losses exceed such amount;

(c) in no event shall (i) the aggregate liability of MLP GP arising out of or relating to Section 9.2(a) for breaches of representations or warranties (other than with respect to a breach of the Fundamental Representations and Warranties) exceed 10% of the Dropdown Aggregate Value and (ii) the aggregate liability of MLP GP arising out of or relating to Section 9.2(a) for breaches of the Fundamental Representations and Warranties exceed 100% of the Dropdown Aggregate Value;

(d) for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty by a party in connection with the assertion of a claim for indemnification under Article IX, or determining the amount of a Loss, with respect to any asserted breach or inaccuracy, such determination shall be made without regard to any qualifier as to “material,” “materiality” or Material Adverse Effect expressly contained in Article III or IV; provided that this Section 9.4(d) shall not apply to the definition of Material Contract; and

(e) for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 9.4 shall affect the provisions of Article VII.

Section 9.5 Waiver of Other Representations.

(a) NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN, IT IS THE EXPLICIT INTENT OF EACH PARTY HERETO, AND THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE, THAT NONE OF MLP GP OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR REPRESENTATIVES HAS MADE OR IS MAKING ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WRITTEN OR ORAL, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY AS TO THE CONDITION, MERCHANTABILITY, USAGE, SUITABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE WITH RESPECT TO THE CONTRIBUTED INTERESTS, THE BUSINESS, WEUS OR M&NE US OR THEIR RESPECTIVE ASSETS OR ANY PART THEREOF, EXCEPT THOSE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, AND WITHOUT IN ANY WAY LIMITING THE FOREGOING, MLP GP MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY TO SPECTRA MLP WITH RESPECT TO ANY FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS OR FORECASTS RELATING TO WEUS, M&NE US OR THE BUSINESS.

(b) The representations and warranties contained in Section 4.13 shall be the exclusive representations and warranties with regard to Environmental Laws and related matters.

Section 9.6 Consideration Adjustment. The Parties agree to treat all payments made pursuant to this Article IX as adjustments to the Cash Distribution for Tax purposes, except as otherwise required by Law following a final determination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or a Governmental Authority with competent jurisdiction.

Section 9.7 Exclusive Remedy.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein except as provided in Sections 7.2, 7.3, 9.2 or 10.2, no Party shall have any liability, and no Party shall make any claim, for any Loss or other matter (and Spectra MLP and MLP GP hereby waive any right of contribution against the other and their respective Affiliates), under, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any other document, agreement, certificate or other matter delivered pursuant hereto or the transactions contemplated hereby, whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, other Laws or otherwise.

(b) NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN, NO PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, LOST OPPORTUNITIES OR OTHER SPECULATIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OTHER LAW OR OTHERWISE AND WHETHER OR NOT ARISING FROM ANY OTHER PARTY’S SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER FAULT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS SECTION 9.7(b) SHALL NOT LIMIT A PARTY’S RIGHT TO RECOVERY UNDER ARTICLE IX FOR ANY SUCH DAMAGES TO THE EXTENT SUCH PARTY IS REQUIRED TO PAY SUCH DAMAGES TO A THIRD PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH A MATTER FOR WHICH SUCH PARTY IS OTHERWISE ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION UNDER ARTICLE IX.
