The applicable statements made in the certificates described in Sections 7(i) and 7(j) shall be deemed representations and warranties by the Issuers, as to matters covered thereby, to the Underwriters.

2.                  Purchase and Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Issuers agree to sell to each Underwriter, and each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Issuers the principal amount of Notes set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name on Schedule I hereto at a purchase price of 99.144% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest, if any, from the Delivery Date.

Concurrently, the Issuers shall deliver to the Trustee, as custodian for DTC, one or more global notes representing the Notes (collectively, the “Global Notes”).

4.                  Offering by the Underwriters. It is understood that the several Underwriters propose to offer the Notes for sale to the public as set forth in the Prospectus.

5.                  Agreements of the Issuers. Each of the Issuers, jointly and severally, acknowledges and agrees with the Underwriters that:

(a)              Post-Effective Amendments. If, at the Applicable Time, it is necessary for a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to be declared effective before the offering of the Notes may commence, the Issuers will endeavor to cause such post-effective amendment to become effective as soon as possible and will advise the Representatives promptly and, if requested by the Representatives, will confirm such advice in writing when such post-effective amendment has become effective.

(b)              Preparation of Prospectus and Registration Statement. The Issuers will advise the Representatives promptly and, if requested by the Representatives, will confirm such advice in writing: (i) of any request by the Commission for amendment of or a supplement to the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or for additional information; (ii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the suspension of qualification of the Notes for offering or sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and (iii) within the period of time referred to in paragraph (e) below, of any change in the condition (financial or other), business, prospects, properties, net worth or results of operations of the Plains Entities, taken as a whole, or of the happening of any event that makes any statement of a material fact made in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) untrue or that requires the making of any additions to or changes in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) in order to state a material fact required by the Securities Act or the regulations thereunder to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein (in the case of any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which any such statements were made) not misleading, or of the necessity to amend or supplement the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) to comply with the Securities Act or any other applicable law. If at any time the Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Partnership will make every commercially reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest possible time.

(c)              Final Term Sheet and Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. The Issuers agree (i) to prepare a final term sheet, containing a description of the final terms of the Notes and the offering thereof, in the form approved by the Representatives and attached as Schedule II hereto, and to file such term sheet pursuant to Rule 433 of the Rules and Regulations within the time required by such Rule and (ii) not to make any offer relating to the Notes that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus without the prior written consent of the Representatives.

(d)              Copies of Registration Statement. The Issuers will furnish to the Underwriters, without charge, such number of copies of (i) the manually signed copy of the registration statement corresponding to the Commission’s electronic data gathering, analysis and retrieval system (“EDGAR”) version filed with the Commission and of each amendment thereto, including financial statements and all exhibits to the registration statement, (ii) the registration statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto, without exhibits, (iii) the Incorporated Documents, without exhibits, and (iv) the exhibits to the Incorporated Documents, in each case, as the Underwriters may request.

(e)               Filing of Amendment or Supplement. For such period as in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters a prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with sales by any Underwriter or any dealer, the Issuers will not file any amendment to the Registration Statement, supplement to the Prospectus (or any other prospectus relating to the Notes filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations that differs from the Prospectus as filed pursuant to such Rule 424(b)), or any Preliminary Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus of which the Representatives shall not previously have been advised or to which the Representatives shall have reasonably objected in writing after being so advised unless the Issuers shall have determined based upon the advice of counsel that such amendment, supplement or other filing is required by law; and the Issuers will promptly notify the Representatives after they shall have received notice thereof of the time when any amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective or when any supplement to the Prospectus has been filed.

(f)                Copies of Documents to the Underwriters. As soon after the Applicable Time as possible and thereafter from time to time for such period as in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters a prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with sales by any Underwriter or any dealer, the Issuers will expeditiously deliver to each Underwriter and each dealer that the Underwriters may specify, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (and of any amendment or supplement thereto) as the Underwriters may reasonably request. At any time after nine months after the time of issuance of the Prospectus, upon request and without charge, the Issuers will deliver as many copies of an amended or supplemented Prospectus complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act as the Underwriters may reasonably request, provided that a prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with sales of the Notes by any Underwriter or any dealer. The Issuers consent to the use of the Prospectus (and of any amendment or supplement thereto) in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act and with the securities or Blue Sky laws of the jurisdictions in which the Notes are offered by the Underwriters and by all dealers to whom Notes may be sold, both in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes and for such period of time thereafter as the Prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with sales by any Underwriter or any dealer. If during such period of time any event shall occur that in the judgment of the Issuers or in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters and the Issuers is required to be set forth in the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) or should be set forth therein in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary to supplement or amend the Prospectus (or to file under the Exchange Act any document which, upon filing, becomes an Incorporated Document) to comply with the Securities Act or any other law, the Issuers will forthwith prepare and, subject to the provisions of paragraph (e) above, file with the Commission an appropriate supplement or amendment thereto (or to such document), and will expeditiously furnish to the Underwriters and dealers a reasonable number of copies thereof; provided that, if any such event necessitating a supplement or amendment to the Prospectus occurs at any time after nine months after the time of issuance of the Prospectus, such supplement or amendment shall be prepared at the Underwriters’ expense. In the event that the Issuers and the Representatives agree that the Prospectus should be amended or supplemented, the Issuers, if requested by the Representatives, will promptly issue a press release announcing or disclosing the matters to be covered by the proposed amendment or supplement unless the Issuers shall have determined, based on the advice of counsel, that the issuance of such press release would not be required by law.

(g)              Blue Sky Laws. The Issuers will cooperate with the Representatives and with counsel for the Underwriters in connection with the registration or qualification of the Notes for offering and sale by the Underwriters and by dealers under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Underwriters may reasonably designate and will file such consents to service of process or other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to effect such registration or qualification; provided that in no event shall any Plains Entity be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Notes, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject. The Issuers will promptly notify the Representatives of the receipt by the Issuers of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Notes for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

(h)              Reports to Security Holders. In accordance with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 of the Rules and Regulations, the Issuers will make generally available to their security holders an earnings statement (which need not be audited) in reasonable detail covering the 12-month period beginning not later than the first day of the month next succeeding the month in which occurred the effective date (within the meaning of such Rule 158) of the Registration Statement as soon as practicable after the end of such period.

(i)               Copies of Reports. Unless otherwise available on EDGAR, during the period of two years hereafter, the Issuers will furnish or make available to the Underwriters (i) as soon as publicly available, a copy of each report of the Issuers mailed to unitholders or filed with the Commission or the principal national securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Notes may be listed, and (ii) from time to time such other information concerning the Issuers as the Underwriters may reasonably request.

(j)               Termination Expenses. If this Agreement shall terminate or shall be terminated after execution pursuant to any provisions hereof (other than pursuant to Section 9 hereof or Section 10 hereof (except pursuant to the first clause of Section 10(i))) or if this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters because of any failure or refusal on the part of either of the Issuers to comply with the terms or fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, the Issuers, jointly and severally, agree to reimburse the Underwriters for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters) incurred by the Underwriters in connection herewith.

(k)              Application of Proceeds. The Issuers will apply the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes in accordance with the description set forth under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(l)               Filing of Prospectus. The Issuers will timely file the Prospectus, and any amendment or supplement thereto, pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations and will advise the Underwriters of the time and manner of such filing.

(m)            Stabilization. Except as stated in this Agreement and the Prospectus, neither of the Issuers has taken, or will take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Issuers to facilitate the sale or resale of the Notes.

(n)              Investment Company. The Issuers will take such steps as shall be necessary to ensure that none of the Plains Entities or the GP Entities shall become an “investment company” within the meaning of such term under the Investment Company Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

(o)              Exchange Act Reports. The Issuers, during the period when the Prospectus is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, will file all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act within the time periods required by the Exchange Act.

(p)              Free Writing Prospectuses. The Issuers have complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 of the Rules and Regulations applicable to any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, including appropriate legending and timely filing with the Commission or retention where required. The Issuers agree that they will satisfy the conditions under Rule 433 of the Rules and Regulations to avoid a requirement to file with the Commission any electronic road show. The Issuers agree that if at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus any event occurred or occurs as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus would conflict with the information in the Registration Statement, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Issuers will give prompt notice thereof to the Representatives and, if requested by the Representatives, will prepare and furnish without charge to each Underwriter an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other document that will correct such conflict, statement or omission; provided, however, that this representation and warranty shall not apply to any statements or omissions in an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Issuers by an Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein, which information is specified in Section 12.

(q)              Clear Market. During the period from the date hereof through and including the business day following the Delivery Date, the Issuers will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Issuers and having a tenor of more than one year.

6.                  Indemnification and Contribution.

(a)              Each of the Issuers, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees and agents of each Underwriter, each affiliate of any Underwriter who has participated in the distribution of the Notes as an underwriter, each broker-dealer affiliate of any Underwriter, and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several (including reasonable costs of investigation), to which they or any of them became subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any “road show” (as defined in Rule 433 of the Rules and Regulations) not constituting an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (a “Non-Prospectus Road Show”) or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which any such statements were made) not misleading, and shall reimburse each Underwriter and each such director, officer, employee or controlling person promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Underwriter, director, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Issuers shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any such amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such Underwriter furnished to the Issuers through the Representatives by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, which information consists solely of the information specified in Section 12. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that the Issuers may otherwise have to any Underwriter or to any director, officer, employee or controlling person of that Underwriter.

(b)              If any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any Underwriter, any director, officer, employee or agent of any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter in respect of which indemnity may be sought against an Issuer, such Underwriter or such director, officer, employee, agent or controlling person shall promptly notify the Partnership in writing, and the Issuers shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and payment of all reasonable fees and expenses. The failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from liability that it may have to an indemnified party unless the indemnifying party is foreclosed by reason of such delay from asserting a defense otherwise available to it. Such Underwriter or any such director, officer, employee, agent or controlling person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action, suit or proceeding and to participate in (but not control) the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Underwriter or such director, officer, employee, agent or controlling person unless (i) the Issuers have agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the Issuers have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel within a reasonable period of time in light of the circumstances or (iii) such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there may be defenses available to it or them that are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to the Issuers (in which case the Issuers shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action, suit or proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events the Issuers shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel as such fees and expenses are incurred (it being understood, however, that the Issuers shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one action, suit or proceeding or series of related actions, suits or proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action, suit or proceeding).

(c)               Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers, GP LLC’s directors and the officers who signed the Registration Statement, and any person who controls either of the Issuers within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuers to each Underwriter, but only with respect to information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show, which information is limited to the information set forth in Section 12. If any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against an Issuer, any of such directors and officers or any such controlling person based on the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show, and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter pursuant to this paragraph (c), such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the Issuers by paragraph (b) above (except that if the Issuers shall have assumed the defense thereof such Underwriter shall not be required to do so, but may employ separate counsel therein and participate in (but not control) the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at such Underwriter’s expense), and the Issuers, any of such directors and officers and any such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to the Underwriters by paragraph (b) above. The foregoing indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any liability that the Underwriters may otherwise have.

(d)              If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable to an indemnified party under paragraph (a) or (c) hereof in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then an indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Notes, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuers bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Issuers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuers or any affiliate of the Issuers on the one hand, or by the Underwriters on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e)              The Issuers and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by a pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating any claim or defending any such action, suit or proceeding. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price of the Notes underwritten by it and distributed to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has 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 Underwriters’ obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 6 are several and not joint.

(f)               No indemnifying party shall (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), 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 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) 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 findings of fact or admissions of fault or culpability as to the indemnified party, or (ii) be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(g)              Any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses for which an indemnified party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Section 6 shall be paid by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are incurred. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 6 and the covenants, representations and warranties of the Issuers set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter, or the Issuers, GP LLC, PAGP GP or any of their respective directors or officers, or any person controlling the Issuers, (ii) acceptance of any Notes and payment therefor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) any termination of this Agreement. A successor to any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter, or to the Issuers, GP LLC, PAGP GP or any of their respective directors or officers, or any person controlling the Issuers shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity, contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section 6.

7.                  Conditions to the Obligations of the Underwriters. The several obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Notes are subject to the following conditions:

(a)              All filings required by Rule 424 and Rule 430B of the Rules and Regulations shall have been made. All material required to be filed by the Issuers pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Rules and Regulations shall have been filed with the Commission within the applicable time period prescribed for such filing by Rule 433 of the Rules and Regulations. No stop order (i) suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or (ii) suspending or preventing the use of the most recent Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus shall have been issued and no proceeding for that purpose shall have been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Issuers or any Underwriter, threatened by the Commission, and any request of the Commission for additional information (to be included in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or otherwise) shall have been complied with to the reasonable satisfaction of the Representatives.

(b)              Subsequent to the Applicable Time, there shall not have occurred (i) any change, or any development involving a prospective change, that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, not contemplated by the Prospectus, which in the Representatives’ opinion, would materially adversely affect the market for the Notes, or (ii) any event or development relating to or involving any of the Plains Entities or any executive officer or director of any of such entities that makes any statement made in the Prospectus untrue or which, in the opinion of the Issuers and their counsel or the Underwriters and their counsel, requires the making of any addition to or change in the Prospectus in order to state a material fact required by the Securities Act or any other law to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, if amending or supplementing the Prospectus to reflect such event or development would, in the Representatives’ opinion, materially adversely affect the market for the Notes.

(c)              The Representatives shall have received an opinion of Vinson & Elkins L.L.P., counsel for the Issuers, dated the Delivery Date and addressed to the Underwriters, to the effect that:
