Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Indenture

On February 6, 2012, Energy Future Intermediate Holding Company LLC (“EFIH”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Energy Future Holdings Corp. (“EFH Corp.”), and EFIH Finance Inc. (“EFIH Finance” and collectively with EFIH, the “Issuer”), a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of EFIH, issued $800 million in aggregate principal amount of its 11.750% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2022 (the “New Notes”). The New Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of April 25, 2011, between the Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), dated as of February 6, 2012, between the Issuer and the Trustee. The New Notes will mature on March 1, 2022. Interest on the New Notes is payable in cash semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year at a fixed rate of 11.750% per annum, and the first interest payment is due on September 1, 2012.

The New Notes are secured, equally and ratably with the Issuer’s $406 million outstanding 11% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2021 (the “Existing Second Lien Notes”), on a second-priority basis, by the pledge of all membership interests and other investments EFIH owns or holds in Oncor Electric Delivery Holdings Company LLC (��Oncor Holdings”) or any of Oncor Holdings’ subsidiaries (such membership interests and other investments, the “Collateral”).

The New Notes are senior obligations of the Issuer and rank equally in right of payment with all senior indebtedness of the Issuer. The New Notes will be effectively senior to all unsecured indebtedness of the Issuer, to the extent of the value of the Collateral, and will be effectively subordinated to indebtedness of the Issuer that is either (1) secured by a first-priority lien on the Collateral or (2) secured by assets of EFIH other than the Collateral, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. Furthermore, the New Notes will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of EFIH’s subsidiaries (other than EFIH Finance), including Oncor Holdings and its subsidiaries, any of EFIH’s future foreign subsidiaries and any other unrestricted subsidiaries and senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of the Issuer.

The New Notes and the Indenture restrict the Issuer’s and their respective restricted subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, make restricted payments and certain other investments, incur debt and issue preferred stock, incur liens, permit dividend and other payment restrictions on restricted subsidiaries, merge, consolidate or sell assets and engage in transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions. There will initially be no restricted subsidiaries under the Indenture (other than EFIH Finance, which has no assets). Oncor Holdings, the immediate parent of Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC, and its subsidiaries will be unrestricted subsidiaries under the Indenture and, accordingly, will not be subject to any of the restrictive covenants in the Indenture.

The New Notes and the Indenture also contain customary events of default, including, among others, failure to pay principal or interest on the New Notes when due. In general, the New Notes will vote together with all other series of notes issued under the Indenture, including the Existing Second Lien Notes. As a result, if an event of default occurs under the New Notes and the Indenture, the trustee or the holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount outstanding of all such notes may declare the principal amount on the New Notes to be due and payable immediately.

The Issuer may redeem the New Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after March 1, 2017, at specified redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, before March 1, 2015, the Issuer may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the New Notes from time to time at a redemption price of 111.750% of the aggregate principal amount of the New Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings. The Issuer may also redeem the New Notes at any time prior to March 1, 2017 at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and a “make-whole” premium. Upon the occurrence of a change in control, the Issuer must offer to repurchase the New Notes at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

The New Notes were offered to “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The New Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the Securities Act.

A copy of the Base Indenture was previously filed as Exhibit 4.(E) to EFH Corp.’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2011 and a copy of the Supplemental Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and each is incorporated herein by reference. The above description of the Indenture is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture.

Registration Rights Agreement

On February 6, 2012, the Issuer also entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) among the Issuer and the initial purchasers named therein. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer has agreed to register with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission notes having substantially identical terms as the New Notes (except for provisions relating to transfer restrictions and payment of additional interest) as part of an offer to exchange such registered notes for the New Notes and to complete such exchange offer no later than 365 days after the original issue date of the New Notes. The Issuer has also agreed to file a “shelf” registration statement under certain circumstances to cover resales of the New Notes. If such obligations are not satisfied (a “Registration Default”), the annual interest rate on the New Notes will increase by 25 basis points for the first 90-day period during which a Registration Default continues, and thereafter the annual interest rate on the Notes will increase by 50 basis points over the original interest rate for the remaining period during which the Registration Default continues. If the Registration Default is corrected, the applicable interest rate on such notes will revert to the original level.

A copy of the Registration Rights Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2 and is incorporated herein by reference. The above description of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Registration Rights Agreement.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

As a result, except as otherwise provided for in this Indenture, Holders of each series of Notes will not have separate rights to, among other things, give notice of Defaults or to direct the Trustee to exercise remedies during an Event of Default or otherwise. Except as otherwise stated herein, the Notes offered by the Issuer and any Additional Notes subsequently issued under this Indenture shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Notes” for all purposes under this Indenture include any Additional Notes that are actually issued. Any Additional Notes shall be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture. Each series of Notes is a separate series of debt, but will be treated as a single class with other series of Required Debt for certain actions and voting as set forth in this Indenture.

2.2.4 Section 2.02 shall be deleted and replaced with the following:

At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

A Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated substantially in the form ofExhibit A-1 (in the case of the 2021 Second Lien Notes) orExhibit A-2 (in the case of the 2022 Second Lien Notes) hereto, as applicable, by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture.

On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer signed by an Officer (an “Issuer Authentication Order”) authenticate and deliver the Initial 2021 Second Lien Notes specified in such Issuer Authentication Order. On the date of the First Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver the Initial 2022 Second Lien Notes. In addition, at any time, and from time to time, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes or Exchange Notes, for an aggregate principal amount specified in such Issuer Authentication Order for such Additional Notes or Exchange Notes. Such Issuer Authentication Order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated and, in the case of any issuance of Additional Notes, shall certify that such issuance is in compliance with Sections 4.09 and 4.12 hereof.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuer.

(d) If EFIH or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries consummates an Asset Sale of Collateral or other Oncor-related Assets, within 10 Business Days of each date that the aggregate amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, EFIH and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required or permitted by the terms of any other Secured Lien Debt, to the holders of such other Secured Lien Debt (and if required or permitted by the terms of any Indebtedness of EFH Corp. that is guaranteed by EFIH and constitutes Secured Lien Debt, EFH Corp. may make an offer to all holders of such Indebtedness) (a “Collateral Asset Sale Offer”), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of such Secured Lien Debt that is a minimum of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Collateral Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in the Indenture and the other applicable Secured Debt Documents;provided that in any such Collateral Asset Sale Offer, all Senior Lien Debt properly tendered will be purchased before any Junior Lien Debt is purchased;provided that in the event EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary cannot make an offer to the holders of Senior Lien Debt and holders of Junior Lien Debt at the same time, EFIH or such Restricted Subsidiary may make a Collateral Asset Sale Offer to the holders of Senior Lien Debt first and make a Collateral Asset Sale Offer to the holders of Junior Lien Debt thereafter with any Collateral Excess Proceeds not used to purchase Senior Lien Debt as soon as practicable upon consummation of the Collateral Asset Sale Offer for the Senior Lien Debt. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such Secured Lien Debt tendered pursuant to a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, or sequential Collateral Asset Sale Offers to holders of Senior Lien Debt and Junior Lien Debt as provided for in the immediately preceding sentence, is less than the Collateral Excess Proceeds, EFIH and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may use any remaining Collateral Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Secured Lien Debt surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds, all Senior Lien Debt properly tendered will be purchased before any Junior Lien Debt is purchased and thereafter the Notes and any other Junior Lien Debt will be purchased on aprorata basis based upon the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such other Junior Lien Debt tendered.

Upon consummation of such Collateral Asset Sale Offer, or sequential Collateral Asset Sale Offers to holders of Senior Lien Debt and Junior Lien Debt, any Net Proceeds not required to be used to purchase Secured Lien Debt shall not be deemed Collateral Excess Proceeds and the Issuer and EFIH’s Restricted Subsidiaries may use any remaining Net Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in the Indenture.

(a) Along with any Guarantors named in the Indenture, to jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that:

(i) the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor (including the Guaranteeing Subsidiary) agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b) The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.

(c) The following is hereby waived: diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever.

(d) Except as set forth in Section 5 hereof, this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes, the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture, and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary accepts all obligations of a Guarantor under the Indenture.

(f) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.

(g) As between the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee.

(h) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under this Guarantee.

D-2

(i) Pursuant to Section 11.02 of the Indenture, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or fraudulent conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under Article 11 of the Indenture, this new Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount permissible such that the obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under this Guarantee will not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

(j) This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference”, “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made.

The Guarantees will be senior in right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated Indebtedness of each Guarantor.

2. Registration Under the Securities Act.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 2(b) below, the Issuers agree to file under the Securities Act, one or more registration statements relating to an offer to exchange (such registration statements, together, the “Exchange Registration Statement,” and such offer, the “Exchange Offer”) any and all of the Securities for a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities issued by the Issuers, which debt securities are substantially identical to the Securities (and are entitled to the benefits of a trust indenture which is

substantially identical to the Indenture or is the Indenture and which has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act), except that they have been registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and do not contain provisions for Additional Interest contemplated in Section 2(d) below (such new debt securities hereinafter called “Exchange Securities”). The Issuers agree to use all commercially reasonable efforts to complete the Exchange Offer no later than 365 days after the Issue Date. The Exchange Offer will be registered under the Securities Act on the appropriate form and will comply with all applicable tender offer rules and regulations under the Exchange Act. Unless the Exchange Offer would not be permitted by applicable law or Commission policy, the Issuers further agree to use all commercially reasonable efforts to (i) commence the Exchange Offer promptly following the Effective Time of such Exchange Registration Statement, (ii) hold the Exchange Offer open for at least 20 Business Days in accordance with Regulation 14E promulgated by the Commission under the Exchange Act, or longer, if required by the federal securities laws and (iii) exchange Exchange Securities for all Registrable Securities that have been properly tendered and not withdrawn promptly following the expiration of the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer will be deemed to have been “completed” only: (i) if the Exchange Securities received by holders, other than Restricted Holders, in the Exchange Offer for Registrable Securities are, upon receipt, transferable by each such holder without restriction under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and without material restrictions under the blue sky or securities laws of a substantial majority of the States of the United States of America and (ii) upon the Issuers having exchanged, pursuant to the Exchange Offer, Exchange Securities for all Registrable Securities that have been properly tendered and not withdrawn before the expiration of the Exchange Offer, which shall be on a date that is at least 20 Business Days following the commencement of the Exchange Offer. The Issuers agree (x) to include in the Exchange Registration Statement a prospectus for use in any resales by any holder of Exchange Securities that is a broker-dealer and (y) to keep such Exchange Registration Statement effective for a period (the “Resale Period”) beginning when Exchange Securities are first issued in the Exchange Offer and ending upon the earlier of the expiration of the 90^th day after the Exchange Offer has been completed or such time as such broker-dealers no longer own any Registrable Securities. With respect to such Exchange Registration Statement, such holders shall have the benefit of the rights of indemnification and contribution set forth in Subsections 6(a), (e), (f) and (g).

(b) If (i) on or prior to the time the Exchange Offer is completed, existing law or Commission interpretations are changed such that the Issuers are not permitted to effect the Exchange Offer, (ii) the Exchange Offer has not been completed within 365 days following the Issue Date (provided, that the Issuers’ failure to complete the Exchange Offer by the deadline set forth in this Section 2(b)(ii) shall be considered a Registration Default for which Additional Interest shall be payable pursuant to Section 2(d) hereof until such time as a Shelf Registration Statement covering resales of the Registrable Securities has become or is declared effective) or (iii) any holder of Registrable Securities notifies the Issuers prior to the 20^th Business Day following the completion of the Exchange Offer that: (A) it is prohibited by law or Commission policy from participating in the Exchange Offer, (B) it may not resell the Exchange Securities to the public without delivering a prospectus and the prospectus supplement contained in the

Exchange Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales or (C) it is a broker-dealer and owns Securities acquired directly from the Issuers or an affiliate of the Issuers, then the Issuers shall promptly deliver to the holders through the Trustee written notice thereof, and in lieu of (or, in the case of clause (iii), in addition to) conducting the Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 2(a), file under the Securities Act no later than 30 days after the time such obligation to file arises (but no earlier than 365 days after the Issue Date) one or more “shelf” registration statements providing for the registration of, and the sale on a continuous or delayed basis by the holders of, all of the Registrable Securities, pursuant to Rule 415 or any similar Rule that may be adopted by the Commission (such filing, the “Shelf Registration,” and such registration statements, the “Shelf Registration Statement”). The Issuers agree to use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to become or be declared effective no later than 90 days after such Shelf Registration Statement filing obligation arises (but no earlier than 365 days after the Issue Date);providedthat if at any time the Issuers are or become “well-known seasoned issuers” (as defined in Rule 405) and are eligible to file an “automatic shelf registration statement” (as defined in Rule 405), then the Issuers shall file the Shelf Registration Statement in the form of an automatic shelf registration statement as provided in Rule 405. The Issuers agree to use all commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective until the earlier of (x) the second anniversary of the Effective Time, (y) such time as all of the Registrable Securities have been sold thereunder and (z) the date upon which all Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (1) are freely transferable without restriction by persons that are not affiliates of the Issuers pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereto or otherwise where no conditions of Rule 144 are then applicable (other than the holding period requirement in Rule 144(d)(1)(ii) so long as such holding preiod requirement is satisfied), (2) do not bear any restrictive legends and (3) do not bear a restrictive CUSIP number ( the “Shelf Registration Period”). No holder shall be entitled to be named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement or to use the prospectus forming a part thereof for resales of Registrable Securities unless such holder is an Electing Holder. The Issuers agree, after the Effective Time of the Shelf Registration Statement and promptly upon the request of any holder of Registrable Securities that is not then an Electing Holder, to use all commercially reasonable efforts to enable such holder to use the prospectus forming a part thereof for resales of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, any action necessary to identify such holder as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement (whether by post-effective amendment thereto or by filing a prospectus pursuant to Rules 430B and 424(b) under the Securities Act identifying such holder);provided, however,that nothing in this sentence shall (A) relieve any such holder of the obligation to return a completed and signed Notice and Questionnaire to the Issuers in accordance with Section 3(d)(iii) or (B) require the Issuers to file more than one post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement in any 45-day period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2(b), upon notice to the Electing Holders, the Issuers may suspend the use or the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement, or extend the time period in which it is required to file the Shelf Registration Statement for one or more periods up to 90 days in the aggregate in any 12-month period (each, a “Suspension Period”) if the

Issuers deliver a written certificate to the Electing Holders signed by either the Chief Executive Officer of each of the Issuers or the Chief Financial Officer of each of the Issuers, certifying that the Board of Directors or the Board of Managers, as applicable, of each Issuer has determined that there is a valid business purpose for suspension of the Shelf Registration Statement;provided, that the Issuers shall promptly notify the Electing Holders when the Shelf Registration Statement may once again be used or is effective.

(c) For the sole benefit of each Market Maker or any of their affiliates (as defined under the rules and regulations of the Commission), so long as (x) any of the Registrable Securities are outstanding and (y) it would be necessary under applicable laws, rules and regulations, in the reasonable opinion of any Market Maker, for such Market Maker or any of its affiliates to deliver a prospectus in connection with market-making activities with respect to the Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities and such Market Maker or such affiliate proposes to make a market in the Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities as part of its business in the ordinary course (the “Market-Making Conditions”), the following provisions of this Section 2(c) shall apply for the sole benefit of each Market Maker and its affiliates (it being understood that only a person for whom the Market-Making Conditions apply at the applicable time shall be entitled to the use of a Market Making Shelf Registration Statement and related provisions of this Agreement). The Issuers shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to file under the Securities Act a “shelf” registration statement (which may be the Exchange Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement if permitted by the rules and regulations of the Commission) pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any similar rule that may be adopted by the Commission providing for the registration of, and the sale on a continuous or delayed basis in secondary transactions by each Market Maker of, Securities (in the event of a Shelf Registration) or Exchange Securities (in the event of an Exchange Offer) (such filing, the “Market Making Shelf Registration,” and such registration statement, the “Market Making Shelf Registration Statement”). The Issuers agree to use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement to become or be declared effective on or prior to (i) the date the Exchange Offer is completed pursuant to Section 2(a) above or (ii) the date the Shelf Registration becomes or is declared effective pursuant to Section 2(b) above, and to keep such Market Making Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective for so long as any Market Maker may be required to deliver a prospectus in connection with transactions in the Securities or the Exchange Securities, as the case may be. In the event that a Market Maker holds Securities at the time an Exchange Offer is to be conducted under Section 2(a) above, the Issuers agree that the Market Making Shelf Registration shall provide for the resale by such Market Maker of such Securities and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective until such time as such Market Maker determines in its reasonable judgment that it is no longer required to deliver a prospectus in connection with the sale of such Securities.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2(c), upon at least 10 Business Days prior written notice to each Market Maker, the Issuers may elect to cause the Market Making Registration Statement to provide for the registration of, and the sale on a continuous or delayed basis in secondary transactions by any Affiliate Investor of Securities (in the event of a Shelf Registration) or Exchange Securities (in the event of an Exchange Offer) regardless of whether such Affiliate Investor otherwise would qualify as an Electing Holder eligible to participate in a Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with Section 2(b) hereof;provided, however, if any Market Maker requests in writing at any time that the Issuers exclude any or all Affiliate Investors from the Market Making Registration Statement, then the Issuers shall either omit such Affiliate Investors from inclusion in the Market Making Registration Statement or promptly amend the Market Making Registration Statement to exclude them from the Market Making Registration Statement. The inclusion of any Affiliate Investor in the Market Making Registration Statement shall not affect the rights of any Market Maker to make any determinations otherwise provided exclusively to each Market Maker in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuers may suspend the offering and sale under the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement for one or more Suspension Periods if the Issuers deliver a written certificate to the Market Makers signed by either the Chief Executive Officer of each of the Issuers or the Chief Financial Officer of each of the Issuers, certifying that each Issuer has determined that (i) such registration would require (A) disclosure of an event at such time as could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business operations or prospects of the Issuers or (B) disclosure of material information relating to a corporate development or (ii) such Market-Making Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto contains an untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;provided, that the Issuers shall promptly notify each Market Maker when the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement may once again be used.

(d) In the event that (i) the Issuers have not filed the Shelf Registration Statement on or before the date on which such registration statement is required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(b) or (ii) such Shelf Registration Statement has not become effective or been declared effective by the Commission on or before the date on which such registration statement is required to become or be declared effective pursuant to Section 2(b) or (iii) the Exchange Offer has not been completed by the earlier of the 60^th Business Day after the Effective Time of the Exchange Registration Statement relating to the Exchange Offer or the 365th day following the Issue Date (if the Exchange Offer is then required to be made) or (iv) any Exchange Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement required by Section 2(a) or Section 2(b) is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective at any time during the Resale Period or Shelf Registration Period, as applicable, (except as specifically permitted herein, including with respect to any Shelf Registration Statement, during any applicable Suspension Period in accordance with the last sentence of Section 2(b)) without being succeeded immediately by an additional registration statement filed and declared effective (each such event referred to in clauses (i) through (iv), a “Registration Default” and each period during which a Registration Default has occurred and is continuing, a “Registration Default Period”), then, as liquidated damages for such Registration

Default, subject to the provisions of Section 9(b), additional interest (“Additional Interest”), in addition to the Base Interest, shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of the Registrable Securities at a per annum rate of 0.25% for the first 90 days of the Registration Default Period and at a per annum rate of 0.50% thereafter for the remaining portion of the Registration Default Period. Additional Interest shall accrue and be payable only with respect to a single Registration Default at any given time, notwithstanding the fact that multiple Registration Defaults may exist at such time. The accrual of Additional Interest shall be the exclusive monetary remedy available to the holders of Registrable Securities for any Registration Default.

(e) The Issuers shall take all actions necessary or advisable to be taken by them to ensure that the transactions contemplated herein are effected as so contemplated in Section 2(a), Section 2(b) or Section 2(c), as applicable.

(f) Any reference herein to a registration statement as of any time shall be deemed to include any document incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, therein by reference as of such time and any reference herein to any post-effective amendment to a registration statement as of any time shall be deemed to include any document incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, therein by reference as of such time.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the obligations of the Issuers under this Section 2 shall terminate with respect to any Security that ceases to be a Registrable Security in accordance with the definition of “Registrable Securities.”

3.Registration Procedures.

If the Issuers file a registration statement pursuant to Section 2(a), Section 2(b) or Section 2(c) the following provisions shall apply:

(a) At or before the Effective Time of the Exchange Registration, the Shelf Registration or the Market Making Registration, whichever may be first, the Issuers shall qualify the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act.

(b) In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture, the Issuers shall appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

(c) In connection with the Issuers’ obligations with respect to the registration of Exchange Securities as contemplated by Section 2(a) (the “Exchange Registration”), if applicable, the Issuers shall:

expenses are incurred;provided, however,that the Issuers shall not be liable to any such person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, or preliminary, final or summary prospectus (including, without limitation, any “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433), or amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuers by such person expressly for use therein, which information, with respect to information provided by any Market Makers for inclusion in the prospectus forming a part of the Market Making Registration Statement the parties hereto agree will be limited to the statements concerning the market-making activities of the Market Makers to be set forth on the cover page and in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a part of the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement and in the analogous section of the Canadian wrapper, if any, of such prospectus.

(b)Indemnification by the Holders. Each holder of Registrable Securities, severally and not jointly, will (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers and all other holders of Registrable Securities, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Issuers or such other holders of Registrable Securities may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, or any preliminary, final or summary prospectus (including, without limitation, any “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433) contained therein or furnished by the Issuers to any such Electing Holder, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuers by such Electing Holder expressly for use therein, and (ii) reimburse the Issuers for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Issuers in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred;provided, however,that no such Electing Holder shall be required to undertake liability to any person under this Section 6(b) for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the proceeds to be received by such Electing Holder from the sale of such Electing Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration.

(c)Indemnification by the Market Makers. The Issuers may require, as a condition to including any Securities or Exchange Securities in the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(c) hereof and to entering into any underwriting agreement with respect thereto, that the Issuers shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to them from each underwriter named in any such underwriting agreement, severally and not jointly, to, and each Market Maker shall, and hereby agrees to, (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Issuers may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect

thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement, or any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein or furnished by the Issuers to the Market Makers or to any such underwriter, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuers by such Market Maker or such underwriter expressly for use therein, which information, with respect to information provided by any Market Maker for inclusion in the prospectus forming a part of the Market Making Registration Statement the parties hereto agree will be limited to the statements concerning the market-making activities of the Market Makers to be set forth on the cover page and in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a part of the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement and in the analogous section of the Canadian wrapper, if any, of such prospectus and (ii) reimburse the Issuers for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Issuers in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred;provided, however,that, in the case of Securities held by any Market Maker at the time of the Exchange Offer, no Market Maker shall be required to undertake liability to any person under this Section 6(c) for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the proceeds to be received by such Market Maker from the sale of such Securities by such Market Maker pursuant to the Market Making Shelf Registration.

(d)Indemnification by Affiliate Investors in Connection with the Market Making Shelf Registration. The Issuers may require, as a condition to including any Securities or Exchange Securities in the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(d) hereof and to entering into any underwriting agreement with respect thereto, that the Issuers shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to them from each underwriter named in any such underwriting agreement, severally and not jointly, to, and each Affiliate Investor shall, and hereby agrees to, (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Issuers may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Market Making Shelf Registration Statement, or any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein or furnished by the Issuers to such Affiliate Investor or to any such underwriter, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuers by such Affiliate Investor or such underwriter expressly for use therein, and (ii) reimburse the Issuers for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Issuers in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred;provided, however,that, in the case of Securities held by any Market Maker at the time of the Exchange

Offer, no Market Maker shall be required to undertake liability to any person under this Section 6(d) for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the proceeds to be received by such Market Maker from the sale of such Securities by such Market Maker pursuant to the Market Making Shelf Registration.

(e)Notices of Claims, Etc. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a), (b), (c) or (d) above of written notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party pursuant to the indemnification provisions of or contemplated by this Section 6, notify such indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of such action; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under the indemnification provisions of or contemplated by Section 6(a), 6(b), 6(c) or 6(d) except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights and defenses) by such failure. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, such indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (with respect to which the indemnified parties (i) are actual parties, or (ii) would reasonably be expected to become parties, to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(f)Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provisions contemplated by Section 6(a), 6(b), 6(c) or 6(d) are unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or by such indemnified party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 6(f) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 6(f). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6(f), none of any holder, Affiliate Investor or, in the case of a Market Making Shelf Registration relating to the sale by any Market Maker of Securities held by it at the time of the Exchange Offer, such Market Maker, shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such holder from the sale of any Registrable Securities or such Market Maker or any Affiliate Investor from the sale of any such Securities (after deducting any fees, discounts and commissions applicable thereto) exceeds the amount of any damages which such holder or such Market Maker or such Affiliate Investor, as applicable, have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The holders’, Market Maker’s and any Affiliate Investor’s obligations in this Section 6(f) to contribute shall be several in proportion to the principal amount of Registrable Securities registered by them and not joint.

(g) The obligations of the Issuers under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which the Issuers may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer, director and partner of each Market Maker, each holder, Electing Holder, Affiliate Investor, and each person, if any, who controls any Market Maker, any holder, Electing Holder or Affiliate Investor within the meaning of the

Securities Act; and the obligations of the Market Makers, the holders, the Electing Holders, the Affiliate Investors contemplated by this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which the Market Makers, the respective holder or Affiliate Investor may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Issuers (including any person who, with his consent, is named in any registration statement as about to become a director of the Issuers) and to each person, if any, who controls the Issuers within the meaning of the Securities Act.

7.Underwritten Offerings.

Each holder of Registrable Securities hereby agrees with the Issuers and each other such holder that no holder of Registrable Securities may participate in any underwritten offering hereunder unless (a) the Issuers give their prior written consent to such underwritten offering, (b) the managing underwriter or underwriters thereof shall be designated by Electing Holders holding at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities to be included in such offering,providedthat such designated managing underwriter or underwriters is or are reasonably acceptable to the Issuers, (c) each holder of Registrable Securities participating in such underwritten offering agrees to sell such holder’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (d) each holder of Registrable Securities participating in such underwritten offering completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

8.Rule 144.

The Issuers covenant to the holders of Registrable Securities, the Market Makers or any Affiliate Investor that to the extent they shall be required to do so under the Exchange Act, the Issuers shall timely file the reports required to be filed by them under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act (including the reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act referred to in subparagraph (c)(1) of Rule 144), and shall take such further action as any holder of Registrable Securities, any Market Maker or any Affiliate Investor may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such holder to sell Registrable Securities or any Market Maker or any Affiliate Investor to sell Securities or Exchange Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemption provided by Rule 144. Upon the request of any holder of Registrable Securities, any Market Maker or any Affiliate Investor in connection with that holder’s, that Market Maker’s or that Affiliate Investor’s sale pursuant to Rule 144, the Issuers shall deliver to such holder, such Market Maker or such Affiliate Investor a written statement as to whether they have complied with such requirements.

9.Miscellaneous.

(a)No Inconsistent Agreements. The Issuers represent, warrant, covenant and agree that they have not granted, and shall not grant, registration rights with respect to Registrable Securities, Securities or Exchange Securities, as applicable, or any other securities which would be inconsistent with the terms contained in this Agreement.

(b)Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge that there would be no adequate remedy at law if the Issuers fail to perform any of their respective obligations hereunder and that the Initial Purchasers and the holders from time to time of the Registrable Securities may be irreparably harmed by any such failure, and accordingly agree that the Initial Purchasers and such holders, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, shall be entitled to compel specific performance of the obligations of the Issuers under this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in any court of the United States or any State thereof having jurisdiction. Time shall be of the essence in this Agreement.

(c)Notices. All notices, requests, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered by hand, if delivered personally, by facsimile or by courier, or three days after being deposited in the mail (registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested) as follows: If to the Issuers, to them at Energy Plaza, 1601 Bryan Street, Dallas, Texas 75201-3411, Attention: General Counsel and if to a holder, to the address of such holder set forth in the security register or other records of the Issuers, or to such other address as the Issuers or any such holder may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notices of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

(d)Parties in Interest. All the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of and shall be enforceable by the parties hereto and the holders from time to time of the Registrable Securities and the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto and such holders. In the event that any transferee of any holder of Registrable Securities shall acquire Registrable Securities, in any manner, whether by gift, bequest, purchase, operation of law or otherwise, such transferee shall, without any further writing or action of any kind, be deemed a beneficiary hereof for all purposes and such Registrable Securities shall be held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Registrable Securities such transferee shall be entitled to receive the benefits of, and be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by all of the applicable terms and provisions of this Agreement. If the Issuers shall so request, any such successor, assign or transferee shall agree in writing to acquire and hold the Registrable Securities subject to all of the applicable terms hereof.

(e)Survival. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and each other provision set forth in this Agreement or made pursuant hereto shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation (or statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf any Market Maker, any Affiliate Investor or any holder of Registrable Securities, any director, officer or partner of such Market Maker, such Affiliate Investor or such holder, or any controlling person of any of the foregoing, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the transfer and registration of Registrable Securities by such holder or of Securities or Exchange Securities by any Market Maker or any Affiliate Investor and the consummation of an Exchange Offer.

(j)Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such respective counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

(b)

Set forth below is Interpretation A.65 of the Commission’s July 1997 Manual of Publicly Available Interpretations regarding short selling:

“An issuer filed a Form S-3 registration statement for a secondary offering of common stock which is not yet effective. One of the selling shareholders wanted to do a short sale of common stock “against the box” and cover the short sale with registered shares after the effective date. The issuer was advised that the short sale could not be made before the registration statement becomes effective, because the shares underlying the short sale are deemed to be sold at the time such sale is made. There would, therefore, be a violation of Section 5 if the shares were effectively sold prior to the effective date.”

By returning this Notice and Questionnaire, the undersigned Selling Securityholder will be deemed to be aware of the foregoing interpretation.

* * * * *

By signing below, the Selling Securityholder acknowledges that it understands its obligation to comply, and agrees that it will comply, with the provisions of the Exchange Act, particularly Regulation M (or any successor rule or regulation).

The Selling Securityholder hereby acknowledges its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers and certain other persons as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.

In the event that the Selling Securityholder transfers all or any portion of the Registrable Securities listed in Item (3) above after the date on which such information is provided to the Issuers, the Selling Securityholder agrees to notify the transferee(s) at the time of the transfer of its rights and obligations under this Notice and Questionnaire and the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Selling Securityholder understands that such information will be relied upon by the Issuers in connection with the preparation of the Shelf Registration Statement and related Prospectus.

In accordance with the Selling Securityholder’s obligation under Section 3(d) of the Registration Rights Agreement to provide such information as may be required by law for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, the Selling Securityholder agrees to promptly notify the Issuers of any inaccuracies or changes in the information provided herein which may occur subsequent to the date hereof at any time while the Shelf Registration Statement remains in effect and to provide such additional information that the Issuers may reasonably request regarding such Selling Securityholder and the intended method of distribution of Registrable Securities in order to comply with the Securities Act.
