SIGNIFICANT EVENTS            Jan — May 2011, announced several new construction projects that will further extend and expand Enterprise’s natural gas, natural gas liquids (NGL) and crude oil infrastructure in South Texas to accommodate growing production volumes from the Eagle Ford Shale play. This includes a fifth NGL fractionator at its Mont Belvieu facility, expected to be in service during the first quarter of 2012. April 2011, announced definitive agreement to merge Duncan Energy Partners L.P. (DEP) with a wholly owned subsidiary of Enterprise through a unit-for-unit exchange. Under terms of the agreement, DEP unitholders will receive 1.01 Enterprise common units in exchange for each DEP common unit owned at closing. Completion of the merger is expected to occur during the third quarter of 2011. April 2011, increased the current quarterly cash distribution rate to partners to $0.5975 per common unit, a 5.3% increase over the $0.5675 per unit quarterly distribution paid with respect to the first quarter of 2010, representing the 36th distribution increase since Enterprise’s initial public offering in 1998 and the 27th consecutive quarterly increase. November 2010, commenced operations of the partnership’s fourth NGL fractionator at its Mont Belvieu, Texas complex. The new 75,000 barrels per day (MBPD) fractionator provides much-needed capacity to accommodate growing NGL volumes from some of the nation’s most prolific producing areas like the Barnett Shale in North Texas and the Rockies. November 2010, completed $9 billion merger with Enterprise GP Holdings L.P. (EPE) in a unit-for-unit exchange resulting in cancellation of the 2% general partner interest, the general partner incentive distribution rights in Enterprise and approximately 21.6 million Enterprise common units owned by EPE. EPE unitholders received 1.5 common units of Enterprise in exchange for each EPE limited partner unit. After the completion of the merger, Enterprise had an enterprise value of approximately $50 billion and a market capitalization of $36 billion. May 2010, completed purchase of the State Line and Fairplay natural gas gathering and treating systems from subsidiaries of M2 Midstream LLC for approximately $1.2 billion. These assets, located in northwest Louisiana and East Texas, gather natural gas from the Haynesville/Bossier Shale plays, the Cotton Valley and the Taylor Sand formations. November 2009, along with Duncan Energy Partners announced plans to expand their jointly-owned Acadian Gas pipeline system. This pipeline will extend into Northwest Louisiana and provide producers in the Haynesville Shale play access to attractive markets through connections with Acadian’s existing 1,000-mile pipeline system in south Louisiana and nine major interstate pipelines. October 2009, completed merger with TEPPCO Partners, L.P., creating the nation’s largest publicly traded energy partnership at the time with an enterprise value of approximately $30 billion and market capitalization of $18 billion. Under the terms of the merger agreement, TEPPCO unitholders received 1.24 Enterprise common units for each TEPPCO unit. September 2004, completed its $6 billion merger with GulfTerra, creating one of the largest publicly traded energy partnerships. July 2003, implemented a distribution reinvestment plan (DRIP) that is available to all unitholders, including beneficial owners, who may participate through their broker and benefit from a 5 percent discount to the market price. December 2002, amended its partnership agreement to eliminate the general partner’s (GP) 50 percent incentive distribution right (IDR), effectively capping IDR at 25 percent. This initiative was unprecedented in the MLP sector. August 2002, completed a $1.2 billion acquisition of the Mid-America and Seminole NGL pipelines from Williams. September 1999, completed a $529 million acquisition of Shell Oil Company’s Louisiana and Mississippi NGL business and entered into a 20-year natural gas processing agreement to process Shell’s current and future production from the Gulf of Mexico.PRODUCTIONPLATFORM SERVICESNATURAL GAS PROCESSING PLANTCRUDE OIL REFININGNATURAL GASPIPELINESNATURAL GASSTORAGE CRUDE OILSTORAGE REFINED PRODUCTSSTORAGE Power GenerationResidential FuelIndustrial FuelNGL STORAGE To fractionators for separationinto NGL purity productsETHANEPROPANEISOBUTANENORMAL BUTANENATURAL GASOLINEMIXED BUTANESCrude OilRefining IndustryDry Natural Gas(principally methane with ethane)NGL FractionationMixed NGLSNATURAL GASPIPELINESNGLPIPELINECRUDE OILPIPELINESREFINED PRODUCTS PIPELINESBARGESBARGESTRUCKSPetrochemicalsMotor GasolinePetrochemicals and Industrial/Residential FuelGasoline Additives and PetrochemicalsGasoline Additives and Petrochemicals MIDSTREAM ENERGY SERVICES

Low cost of capital relative to peers No general partner incentive distribution rights or economic interest History of increasing quarterly cash distributions leading to superior attractive total returns which reduces cost of equity capital Attractive yield and tax deferral Management team with interests aligned with the public partners — Management and their affiliates own approximately 40 percent of the limited partner units outstanding PUBLICLY TRADED PARTNERSHIP ATTRIBUTES Enterprise is a publicly traded partnership which operates in the following ways that are different from a publicly traded stock corporation: Unitholders own limited partnership units and receive cash distributions instead of owning shares of common stock and receiving dividends. A partnership generally is not a taxable entity and does not pay federal income taxes. All of the annual income, gains, losses, deductions or credits flow through the partnership to the unitholders on a per unit basis. The unitholders are required to report their allocated share of these amounts on their income tax returns whether or not any cash distributions are paid by the partnership. Cash distributions paid by a partnership to a unitholder are generally not taxable, unless the amount of any cash distributed is in excess of the unitholder’s adjusted basis in his partnership interest. Generally in late February, Enterprise provides each unitholder a Schedule K-1 tax package that includes each unitholder’s allocated share of reportable partnership items and other partnership information necessary to complete their income tax returns. The K-1 provides a unitholder the required tax information for their ownership interest in the partnership, just as a Form 1099-DIV does for a stockholder’s ownership interest in a corporation.
