Each capitalized term used but not defined in this First Supplemental Indenture shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Original Indenture (as defined below).

RECITALS:

WHEREAS, the Issuer and the Parent Guarantor have executed and delivered to the Trustee an Indenture, dated as of the date hereof (the “Original Indenture” and as supplemented by this First Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance by the Issuer from time to time of its debentures, notes, bonds or other evidences of indebtedness to be issued in one or more series unlimited as to principal amount (the “Debt Securities”), and the guarantee by each Guarantor of the Debt Securities (the “Guarantee”);

WHEREAS, the Issuer has duly authorized and desires to cause to be issued pursuant to the Original Indenture and this First Supplemental Indenture two series of Debt Securities designated the “4.000% Series A Senior Notes due 2007” (the “Series A Notes”) and the “4.000% Series B Senior Notes due 2007” (the “Series B Notes” and, together with the Series A Notes, the “Notes”), all of such Notes to be guaranteed by the Parent Guarantor as provided in Article XIV of the Original Indenture;

WHEREAS, the Issuer desires to cause the issuance of the Notes pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 2.03 of the Original Indenture, which sections permit the execution of indentures supplemental thereto to establish the form and terms of Debt Securities of any series;

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Original Indenture, the Issuer and the Parent Guarantor have requested that the Trustee join in the execution of this First Supplemental Indenture to establish the form and terms of the Notes;

WHEREAS, all things necessary have been done to make the Notes, when executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered hereunder and under the Original Indenture and duly issued by the Issuer, and the Guarantee of the Parent Guarantor, when the Notes are duly issued by the Issuer, the valid obligations of the Issuer and the Parent Guarantor, respectively, and to make this First Supplemental Indenture a valid agreement of the Issuer and the Parent Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms.

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

ARTICLE I
THE NOTES

SECTION 1.1 Form.

The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A to this First Supplemental Indenture, which is hereby incorporated into this First

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

The Series A Notes and the Series B Notes shall be treated as a single series of Debt Securities for purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes have given any notice, consent or waiver or taken any other action permitted under the Indenture.

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.

The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company to act as Depositary with respect to the Book-Entry Notes.

SECTION 1.2 Title, Amount and Payment of Principal and Interest.

The Series A Notes shall be entitled the “4.000% Series A Senior Notes due 2007,” and the Series B Notes shall be entitled the “4.000% Series B Senior Notes due 2007.” The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (i) Series A Notes for original issue on the date hereof (the “Original Series A Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $500 million, (ii) additional Series A Notes (or, if registered under the Securities Act upon initial issuance, additional Series B Notes) for original issue from time to time after the date hereof in such principal amounts as may be specified in the Company Order described in this sentence, provided that no such additional Notes may be issued at a price that would cause such Notes to have “original issue discount” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and (iii) Series B Notes for original issue from time to time thereafter for issue only in exchange for a like principal amount of Series A Notes, in each case upon a Company Order for the authentication and delivery thereof and satisfaction of the other provisions of Section 2.05 of the Indenture. Such order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated, the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated, whether the Notes are Series A Notes or Series B Notes, and the name or names of the initial Holder or Holders. The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be outstanding at any time may not exceed $500 million plus such additional principal amounts as may be issued and authenticated pursuant to clause (ii) of this paragraph (except as provided in Section 2.09 of the Indenture).

The principal amount of each Note shall be payable on October 15, 2007. Each Series A Note shall bear interest from the date of original issuance, or the most recent date to which interest has been paid, at the fixed rate of 4.0% per annum. Each Series B Note shall bear interest at the same rate from the most recent date to which interest shall have been paid on the Series A Note for which such Series B Note was exchanged or, if no interest shall have been paid on such Series A Note, then from the date of original issuance of such Series A Note. The dates on which interest on the Notes shall be payable shall be April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing April 15, 2005 in the case of the Original Series A Notes (the “Interest Payment Dates”). The regular record date for interest payable on the Notes on any Interest Payment Date shall be the April 1 or October 1 (the “Regular Record Date”), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date.

Payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest due on the Notes representing Book-Entry Notes on any Interest Payment Date or at maturity will be made available to the Trustee by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, unless such date falls on a day which is not a Business Day, in which case such payments will be made available to the Trustee by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next Business Day. As soon as possible thereafter, the Trustee will make such payments to the Depositary.

SECTION 1.3 Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and paying agent with respect to the Notes. The office where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or exchange and the Place of Payment for the Notes shall initially be the corporate trust office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which on the date hereof is located at 45 Broadway, 12th Floor, New York, New York 10002, Attention: Corporate Trust MAC T5415-030.

(d) if such Transfer Restricted Securities are being transferred in reliance on and in compliance with another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto) and an opinion of counsel to that effect if the Issuer or the Trustee so requests.

(ii) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of Book-Entry Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with Section 2.15 of the Original Indenture and Article I of this First Supplemental Indenture (including the restrictions on transfer set forth therein and herein) and the rules and procedures of the Depositary therefor, which shall include restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth therein and herein to the extent required by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

(2) the Parent Guarantor has abandoned the GulfTerra Acquisition; or

(3) the Merger Agreement has terminated.

The Securities are redeemable, at the option of the Company, 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 redemption price) on the Securities (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual 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 interest to the Redemption Date.

The actual Make-Whole Price, calculated as provided above, shall be calculated and certified to the Trustee and the Company 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 the 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 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 terms of the Securities; provided, however, that if no maturity is within three months before or after the maturity date for the 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.

A-6

“Independent Investment Banker” means either Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC (and its successors) or Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. (and its successors), or, if neither 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 bid price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) at 4:00 p.m. on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date, as set forth on “Telerate Page 500” (or such other page as may replace Telerate Page 500), or (b) if such page (or any successor page) is not displayed or does not contain such bid prices at such time, the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations obtained by the Trustee for the Redemption Date.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (a) Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC (and its successors) and (b) one other primary U.S. government securities dealer in New York City selected by the Independent Investment Banker (each, a “Primary Treasury Dealer”); provided, however, that if either of the foregoing shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company 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 the Trustee, 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 the Trustee 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 redemption become due on the Redemption Date. Notices of optional redemption will be mailed at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Securities to be redeemed at its registered address, and notices of mandatory redemption will be mailed at least 15 but not more than 30 days before the Redemption Date to all Holders at their respective registered addresses. The notice of redemption for the Securities will state, among other things, the amount of Securities to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, the redemption price (or the method of calculating such redemption price) and the place(s) that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of Securities to be redeemed. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on any Securities that have been called for redemption at the Redemption Date. 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 or by any other method the Trustee deems fair and appropriate.

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

A-7

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.

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.

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,

A-8

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.

10. Registration Rights.

The Holder of this Security may be entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) dated as of October 4, 2004, by and among the Company, the Parent Guarantor and the Initial Purchasers named therein. In certain events, the Company shall be required to pay to each affected Holder additional interest on the Securities, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement, and all references to “interest” herein include any such additional interest unless the context otherwise requires.

11. Trustee Dealings with Company.

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

12. Authentication.

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

13. 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).

14. CUSIP Numbers.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Note Identification Procedures, the Company 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.

15. 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 Company, 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.

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.
