Neither the
Partnership Agreement
nor any other agreement requires CenterPoint Energy or OGE Energy to pursue a business strategy that favors us. The directors and officers of CenterPoint Energy and OGE Energy have a fiduciary duty to make decisions in the best interests of the stockholders of their respective companies, which may be contrary to our interests. CenterPoint Energy and OGE Energy may choose to shift the focus of their investment and growth to areas not served by our assets. In addition, CenterPoint Energy is the holder of our Series A Preferred Units and may favor its interests in voting in favor of actions relating to such units, including voting in favor of making distributions on such Series A Preferred Units even if no distributions are made on the common units.
|
•
|
Our general partner is allowed to take into account the interests of parties other than us, such as CenterPoint Energy and OGE Energy, in resolving conflicts of interest.
|
•
|
Some of the directors of our general partner are also officers and/or directors of CenterPoint Energy or OGE Energy and will owe fiduciary duties to their respective companies. These individuals may also devote significant time to the business of CenterPoint Energy and OGE Energy.
|
•
|
The
Partnership Agreement
replaces the fiduciary duties that would otherwise be owed to us by our general partner with contractual standards governing its duties, limits our general partner’s liabilities and restricts the remedies available to our unitholders for actions that, without such limitations, might constitute breaches of fiduciary duty.
|
•
|
Except in limited circumstances, our general partner has the power and authority to conduct our business without unitholder approval.
|
•
|
Disputes may arise under our commercial agreements with CenterPoint Energy and OGE Energy.
|
•
|
Our general partner determines the amount and timing of asset purchases and sales, borrowings, issuances of additional partnership units and the creation, reduction or increase of cash reserves, each of which can affect the amount of distributable cash flow.
|
•
|
Our general partner determines the amount and timing of any capital expenditures and whether a capital expenditure is classified as a maintenance capital expenditure, which reduces operating surplus, or an expansion or investment capital expenditure, which does not reduce operating surplus. This determination can affect the amount of cash that is distributed to our unitholders.
|
•
|
Our general partner determines which costs incurred by it and its affiliates are reimbursable by us.
|
•
|
Our general partner may cause us to borrow funds in order to permit the payment of cash distributions, even if the purpose or effect of the borrowing is to make incentive distributions.
|
•
|
The
Partnership Agreement
permits us to classify up to $300 million as operating surplus, even if it is generated from asset sales, non-working capital borrowings or other sources that would otherwise constitute capital surplus. This cash may be used to fund distributions to our general partner in respect of the incentive distribution rights.
|
•
|
The
Partnership Agreement
does not prohibit our general partner from causing us to pay it or its affiliates for any services rendered to us or entering into additional contractual arrangements with any of these entities on our behalf.
|
•
|
Our general partner intends to limit its liability regarding our contractual and other obligations.
|
•
|
Our general partner may exercise its right to call and purchase all of the common units not owned by it and its affiliates if they own more than
90% of the common units. If our general partner and its affiliates reduce their ownership percentage to below 70% of the outstanding units, the ownership threshold to exercise the call right will be permanently reduced to 80%
.
|
•
|
Our general partner controls the enforcement of the obligations that it and its affiliates owe to us.
|
•
|
Our general partner decides whether to retain separate counsel, accountants or others to perform services for us.
|
•
|
Our general partner may transfer its incentive distribution rights without unitholder approval.
|
•
|
Our general partner may elect to cause us to issue common units to it in connection with a resetting of the target distribution levels related to our general partner’s incentive distribution rights without the approval of the conflicts committee of the Board of Directors or our unitholders. This election may result in lower distributions to our common unitholders in certain situations.
|
•
|
how to allocate corporate opportunities among us and its other affiliates;
|
•
|
whether to exercise its limited call right;
|
•
|
whether to seek approval of the resolution of a conflict of interest by the conflicts committee of the Board of Directors;
|
•
|
whether to elect to reset target distribution levels;
|
•
|
whether to transfer the incentive distribution rights to a third party; and
|
•
|
whether or not to consent to any merger or consolidation of the Partnership or amendment to the Partnership Agreement.
|
•
|
whenever our general partner, the Board of Directors or any committee thereof (including the conflicts committee) makes a determination or takes, or declines to take, any other action in their respective capacities, our general partner, the Board of Directors and any committee thereof (including the conflicts committee), as applicable, is required to make such determination, or take or decline to take such other action, in good faith, meaning that it subjectively believed that the decision was in the best interests of the Partnership, and, except as specifically provided by our Partnership Agreement, will not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by our Partnership Agreement, Delaware law, or any other law, rule or regulation, or at equity;
|
•
|
our general partner will not have any liability to us or our unitholders for decisions made in its capacity as a general partner so long as such decisions are made in good faith;
|
•
|
our general partner and its officers and directors will not be liable for monetary damages to us or our limited partners resulting from any act or omission unless there has been a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that our general partner or its officers and directors, as the case may be, acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct or, in the case of a criminal matter, acted with knowledge that the conduct was criminal; and
|
•
|
our general partner will not be in breach of its obligations under the Partnership Agreement (including any duties to us or our unitholders) if a transaction with an affiliate or the resolution of a conflict of interest is:
|
•
|
approved by the conflicts committee of the Board of Directors, although our general partner is not obligated to seek such approval;
|
•
|
approved by the vote of a majority of the outstanding common units, excluding any common units owned by our general partner and its affiliates;
|
•
|
determined by the Board of Directors to be on terms no less favorable to us than those generally being provided to or available from unrelated third parties; or
|
•
|
determined by the Board of Directors to be fair and reasonable to us, taking into account the totality of the relationships among the parties involved, including other transactions that may be particularly favorable or advantageous to us.
|
•
|
our existing unitholders’ proportionate ownership interest in us will decrease;
|
•
|
the amount of distributable cash flow on each unit may decrease;
|
•
|
because the amount payable to holders of incentive distribution rights is based on a percentage of the total distributable cash flow, the distributions to holders of incentive distribution rights will increase even if the per unit distribution on common units remains the same;
|
•
|
the ratio of taxable income to distributions may increase;
|
•
|
the relative voting strength of each previously outstanding unit may be diminished; and
|
•
|
the market price of the common units may decline.
|
•
|
we were conducting business in a state but had not complied with that particular state’s partnership statute; or
|
•
|
a unitholder’s right to act with other unitholders to remove or replace our general partner, to approve some amendments to our Partnership Agreement or to take other actions under our Partnership Agreement constitutes “control” of our business.

Natural gas and natural gas liquids purchase arrangements
- For certain arrangements within our gathering and processing segment, the Partnership purchases and controls the entire hydrocarbon stream at the point of receipt. Under Topic 606, these arrangements are considered supplier contracts rather than contracts with customers. Therefore, upon adoption of Topic 606, the gathering and processing fees for these arrangements that were previously recognized as Service revenue under Topic 605 will now be recognized as reductions to Cost of natural gas and natural gas liquids.
|
•
|
Percent-of-proceeds and percent-of-liquids processing arrangements
- Under percent-of-proceeds and percent-of-liquids arrangements within our gathering and processing segment, we have recognized the value of natural gas and natural gas liquids received in our purchase cost within Cost of natural gas and natural gas liquids. Under Topic 606, the Partnership will recognize the value of the natural gas and NGLs received as Service revenue and as an increase to Cost of natural gas and natural gas liquids when the natural gas or NGLs are sold and Product sales are recognized.
|
•
|
Keep-whole arrangements
- Under keep-whole arrangements within our gathering and processing segment, the Partnership recognized the value of NGLs received in Product revenue and the value of the thermally equivalent quantity of natural gas provided in our purchase cost within Cost of natural gas and natural gas liquids. Under Topic 606, the Partnership will recognize the value of the NGLs received less the value of the thermal equivalent volume of natural gas provided as Service revenue and as an increase to Cost of natural gas and natural gas liquids when the NGLs are sold and Product sales are recognized.
|
•
|
Fixed fuel arrangements
- Under certain gathering arrangements within our gathering and processing segment as well as under certain transportation arrangements within our transportation and storage segment we receive a fixed amount of fuel regardless of actual fuel usage. Historically, revenue for fuel in excess of actual usage was recognized when such fuel was received, and additional revenue was recognized when such fuel was sold. Under Topic 606, fuel in excess of actual usage will be treated as a byproduct obtained through the fulfillment of a contract, and the Partnership will recognize revenue at the time the excess fuel is sold. This will result in a reduction of Product sales and a corresponding reduction in Cost of natural gas and natural gas liquids.

The Partnership uses the market approach to fair value its gas imbalance assets and liabilities at individual, or where appropriate an average of, current market indices applicable to the Partnership’s operations, not to exceed net realizable value. Gas imbalances held by EOIT are valued using an average of the Inside FERC Gas Market Report for Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Co. (Texas, Oklahoma Mainline), ONEOK (Oklahoma) and ANR Pipeline (Oklahoma) indices. There were
no
netting adjustments as of
December 31, 2017
and
2016
.

Amounts in columns (c), (d) and (e) of the Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table for
2017
above represent the threshold, target and maximum amounts that would be payable to named executive officers pursuant to the
2017
annual incentive awards made under the Enable Midstream Partners, LP Short-Term Incentive Plan. The short-term incentive plan was designed with a funding trigger that requires threshold performance for the plan to payout. If threshold performance is not met, no payments will be made. For each performance measure, established thresholds were set (at which 50% payout

Amounts in columns (f), (g) and (h) above represent awards of performance units under Enable Midstream Partners, LP Long-Term Incentive Plan. All payouts of such performance units will be made in units and any accumulated distribution equivalent rights will be paid in cash. Due to their variable nature, accumulated distribution equivalent rights are not disclosed in the table above. The conditions of the
2017
award provide that the executive officer will receive from 0% to 200% of the performance units awarded depending upon the Partnership’s total unitholder return of a group of 16 peer companies over a performance period from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2019. Total unit holder return includes both price appreciation and cash distributions over the performance period. Price appreciation is determined by comparing the average closing price of units of the Partnership or any company in the peer group for the 20 trading days preceding the performance period and for the last 20 trading days during the performance period. Cash distributions for the Partnership or any company in the peer group are assumed to have been reinvested in additional units on the date two days prior to the distribution record date. At the end of the performance period, the terms of these performance units provide for payout of 100% of the performance units initially granted if the Partnership’s total unitholder return is at the 50th percentile of the peer group, with higher payouts for performance above the 50th percentile up to 200% of the performance units granted if total unitholder return is at or above the 90th percentile of the peer group. The terms of these performance units provide for payouts of less than 100% of the performance units granted if the Partnership’s total unitholder return is below the 50th percentile of the peer group, with no payout for performance below the 30th percentile.

|
Amounts in column (i) above represent the number of phantom unit awards granted to each of our named executive officers under the Enable Midstream Partners, LP Long-Term Incentive Plan.

Amounts reflect the grant date fair value based on a probable value of these awards or target value, of 100% payout. See Note 17 to the financial statements for further information.
