Item 1.01.		Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

MLP Merger Agreement

Enterprise GP Holdings L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Holdings”), has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 3, 2010 (the “MLP Merger Agreement”), by and among Enterprise Products Partners L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), Enterprise Products GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the general partner of the Partnership (the “Partnership GP”), Enterprise ETE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership (“MergerCo”), Holdings and EPE Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the general partner of Holdings (“Holdings GP”).

Pursuant to the MLP Merger Agreement and immediately prior to the effective time of the MLP Merger (as defined below), Holdings’ existing partnership agreement will be amended to provide for the transformation of the approximate 0.01% economic interest of the general partner in Holdings owned by Holdings GP into 13,921 Holdings units representing an approximate 0.01% limited partner interest in Holdings and a non-economic general partner interest in Holdings (the “transformation”) in accordance with a Fourth Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Holdings substantially in the form attached as Annex A to the MLP Merger Agreement.

Immediately following the transformation and pursuant to the MLP Merger Agreement and an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 3, 2010 (the “GP Merger Agreement” and, together with the MLP Merger Agreement, the “Merger Agreements”), by and among the Partnership GP, Holdings and Holdings GP, the Partnership GP (a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings) will merge with and into Holdings with Holdings surviving such merger, thus becoming the general partner of the Partnership (the “GP Merger”).

Immediately following the GP Merger, at the effective time of the MLP Merger, Holdings will merge with and into MergerCo, with MergerCo surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership (the “MLP Merger” and, together with the GP Merger, the “Mergers”). As a result of the MLP Merger and pursuant to the MLP Merger Agreement, Holdings GP will become the non-economic general partner of the Partnership and all outstanding units representing limited partner interests in Holdings (other than Holdings units held by Holdings, the Partnership or their respective subsidiaries) will be converted into the right to receive common units representing limited partnership interests in the Partnership (the “Common Units”). The 21,563,155 Common Units currently owned by Holdings will become treasury units and cancelled by the Partnership immediately after the MLP Merger.

Under the terms of the MLP Merger Agreement, all outstanding Holdings units (other than Holdings units held by Holdings, the Partnership or their respective subsidiaries)will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive Common Units based on an exchange rate of 1.5 Common Units per Holdings unit. No fractional Common Units will be issued in the MLP Merger, and Holdings unitholders will, instead, receive cash in lieu of fractional Common Units, if any.

Under the terms of the MLP Merger Agreement and a related Sixth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (substantially in the form attached as Annex C to the MLP Merger Agreement) to be executed at the closing of the MLP Merger, the current 2% economic general partner interest and the incentive distribution rights in the Partnership held by Holdings in the Partnership will be cancelled, and the non-economic general partner interest in Holdings held by Holdings GP will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the non-economic general partner interest in the Partnership.

The MLP Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and covenants by each of the parties. Completion of the MLP Merger is conditioned upon, among other things: (1) approval of the MLP Merger Agreement by Holdings unitholders that own at least a majority of the outstanding Holdings units; (2) applicable regulatory approvals; (3) the absence of certain legal injunctions or impediments prohibiting the transactions; (4) the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-4 with respect to the issuance by the Partnership of the Common Units in connection with the MLP Merger; (5) the receipt of certain tax opinions; (6) approval for the listing of the Common Units on the New York Stock Exchange; (7) the effectiveness of the GP Merger; (8) the execution of the Sixth Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement of the Partnership substantially in the form attached as Annex C to the MLP Merger Agreement; and (9) the execution of a Distribution

-2-

Waiver Agreement by certain affiliates of Enterprise Products Company (“EPCO”) substantially in the form attached as Annex D to the MLP Merger Agreement.

The MLP Merger Agreement contains provisions granting both the Partnership and Holdings the right to terminate the MLP Merger Agreement for certain reasons, including, among others, (1) if the MLP Merger does not occur on or before December 31, 2010 and (2) the failure of Holdings to obtain approval of the MLP Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote or consent of Holdings unitholders that own at least a majority of the outstanding Holdings units. In addition, the Partnership and Holdings may terminate the MLP Merger Agreement if certain specified changes in U.S. federal income tax law occur.

A privately held affiliate of EPCO owns Holdings GP and appoints its directors and will continue to have this power to control the election of Holdings GP’s directors after giving effect to the MLP Merger. In addition, privately held affiliates of EPCO, through their ownership of Holdings GP and their collective ownership or control of limited partnership interests in Holdings, control the appointment of directors to the Partnership GP board of directors. The limited liability company agreement of Holdings GP will be amended and restated in substantially the form attached as Annex B to the MLP Merger Agreement effective upon the consummation of the GP Merger.

GP Merger Agreement

The GP Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and covenants by each of the parties. Completion of the GP Merger is conditioned upon, among other things: (1) the absence of certain legal impediments prohibiting the transactions, (2) applicable regulatory approvals and (3) the conditions precedent contained in the MLP Merger Agreement having been satisfied.

The GP Merger Agreement contains provisions granting both the Partnership GP and Holdings the right to terminate the GP Merger Agreement for certain reasons, including, among others, if the GP Merger does not occur on or before December 31, 2010.

Support Agreement

In connection with the MLP Merger Agreement, the Partnership entered into a Support Agreement, dated as of September 3, 2010 (the “Support Agreement”), by and among the Partnership, on one hand, and DD Securities LLC, DFI GP Holdings, L.P., EPCO Holdings, Inc., Duncan Family Interests, Inc., Dan Duncan LLC and DFI Delaware Holdings L.P., privately held affiliates of EPCO, on the other hand (collectively, the “Affiliated Unitholders”). Pursuant to the Support Agreement, the Affiliated Unitholders, who directly own 105,739,220 Holdings units (representing approximately 76 percent of the outstanding Holdings units and a sufficient vote for approval of the MLP Merger Agreement if voted in favor therefor), agreed to vote their Holdings units in favor of the adoption of the MLP Merger Agreement at any meeting of Holdings unitholders. In addition, EPCO Holdings, Inc. (“EPCO Holdings”) and DFI Delaware Holdings L.P. (“DFI Delaware”), have agreed to execute a Distribution Waiver Agreement substantially in the form attached as Annex D to the MLP Merger Agreement at the closing of the MLP Merger. Under the Distribution Waiver Agreement, DFI Delaware will agree to designate and waive its rights to quarterly distributions of “Available Cash” with respect to a specified number of Common Units over a five-year period: 30,610,000 Common Units during the first four quarters following the closing of the merger; 26,130,000 Common Units during the four quarters thereafter; 23,700,000 Common Units during the four quarters thereafter; 22,560,000 Common Units during the four quarters thereafter; and 17,690,000 Common Units during the four quarters thereafter. EPCO Holdings will agree under the Distribution Waiver Agreement to perform certain obligations in the event DFI Delaware breaches its obligations under the agreement.

The Support Agreement will terminate at 11:59 p.m. (Eastern time) on December 31, 2010 or upon the termination of the MLP Merger Agreement. In addition, the Affiliated Unitholders may terminate their obligations under the Support Agreement, including their obligations to execute and deliver the Distribution Waiver Agreement, (1) after any change in recommendation by the Holdings Audit, Conflicts and Governance Committee permitted under the MLP Merger Agreement, (2) any change in, or a failure to maintain, the Holdings Audit, Conflicts and Governance Committee’s “Special Approval” in accordance with the Holdings partnership agreement and (3) after the occurrence of certain specified changes in U.S. federal income tax law prior to the closing of the MLP Merger.
