The DD LLC Trustees, the EPCO Trustees and Randa Duncan Williams are collectively referred to herein as the “Reporting Persons.”
 
During the last five years, no Reporting Person has been: (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
Upon the passing of Dan L. Duncan on March 29, 2010, voting control of the membership interest of DD LLC was transferred to the DD LLC Trustees pursuant to the DD Trust Agreement among DD LLC, Dan L. Duncan, as member, and Dan L. Duncan, as initial sole voting trustee.  The Estate is the successor to Mr. Duncan’s personal beneficial ownership of the member interests in DD LLC.
 
Upon the passing of Dan L. Duncan on March 29, 2010, voting control of all of Dan L. Duncan’s Class A Common Stock of EPCO was transferred to the EPCO Trustees pursuant to the EPCO Trust Agreement among EPCO, Dan L. Duncan as a shareholder, and Dan L. Duncan as the voting trustee.  The Estate is the successor to Mr. Duncan’s personal beneficial ownership in the Class A Common Stock of EPCO.
 
Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.
 
As disclosed in Item 3, the DD LLC Trustees collectively obtained record ownership of the membership interests of DD LLC on March 29, 2010 as a result of the passing of Dan L. Duncan.  The DD LLC Trustees serve in such capacity without compensation, but they are entitled to incur reasonable charges and expense deemed necessary and proper for administering the DD Trust Agreement and to reimbursement and indemnification.
 
The EPCO Trustees collectively obtained record ownership of the Class A Common Stock of EPCO on March 29, 2010 as a result of the passing of Dan L. Duncan.  The EPCO Trustees serve in such capacity without compensation, but they are entitled to incur reasonable charges and expense deemed necessary and proper for administering the EPCO Trust Agreement and to reimbursement and indemnification.
 
In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “ETE Purchase Agreement”), entered into as of May 7, 2007, by and among EPE, Natural Gas Partners VI, L.P. (“NGP”), Ray C. Davis (“Davis”), Avatar Holdings, LLC (“Avatar LLC”), Avatar Investments, LP (“Avatar LP”), Lon Kile (“Kile”), MHT Properties, Ltd. (“MHT Properties”), P. Brian Smith Holdings, LP (“Smith Holdings”), and the Issuer GP, pursuant to which EPE purchased equity units representing membership interests of the Issuer GP from Davis and NGP, and Common Units from Davis, Avatar LLC, Avatar LP, NGP, Kile, MHT Properties and Smith Holdings, EPE entered into an Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Issuer GP (the “LE GP LLC Agreement”). Pursuant to the LE GP LLC Agreement, EPE has the right to acquire additional equity units representing membership interests of the Issuer GP (“GP Equity Units”) issued by the Issuer GP in accordance with the proportion of EPE's membership interest to the total number of GP Equity Units outstanding as of the date of the determination (the “Sharing Ratio”). In addition, EPE has a right of first refusal in the event another member elects to sell all or a portion of its membership interest unless such transfer is a permitted transfer under the LE GP LLC Agreement.
 
In addition, if any members owning 80% or more of the membership interests propose to transfer 80% or more of the outstanding membership interests, such members may at their option require all members to transfer an amount equal to (i) their Sharing Ratio multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator being the number of units proposed to be sold and the denominator being the total number of units outstanding as of the date of such determination (the “Drag-Along Right”). If any members propose to transfer 50% or more of the outstanding membership interests in a sale to a third party, then each member may elect, at its option, to transfer an amount of its GP Equity Units to the third party determined by multiplying its GP Equity Units by a fraction, the numerator of which is the maximum number of GP Equity Units that the third party buyer is willing to purchase and the denominator of which is the number of GP Equity Units held by all members electing to participate in the sale (the “Tag-Along Right”).
 
6

 
In the event any member or its affiliates sells or otherwise disposes of at least 10% of the Common Units owned, directly or indirectly, by such member as of the date of the LE GP LLC Agreement, other than through transfers to wholly-owned affiliates of such member, the other members have the right to purchase a portion of the units held by such member (the “Purchase Option”). The number of GP Equity Units that a member may purchase pursuant to the Purchase Option will be equal to (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Units sold and the denominator of which is the number of Common Units originally owned, directly or indirectly, by such member as of the date of the LE GP LLC Agreement, multiplied by (ii) the GP Equity Units originally owned by such member as of the date of the LE GP LLC Agreement. The purchase price for GP Equity Units purchased pursuant to the Purchase Option will be based upon the fair market value of the Common Units during the ten trading days prior to the notice of the Purchase Option.
 
Certain members of the Issuer GP have a put option to require the Issuer GP to acquire all of their membership interests if (i) with respect to Davis (as defined in Item 5(c)), Kelcy Warren ceases to own at least 20% of the membership interests of the Issuer GP, and (ii) with respect to NGP (as defined in Item 5(c)), NGP ceases to own any Common Units.
 
In connection with the ETE Purchase Agreement, EPE also entered into a Unitholder Rights and Restrictions Agreement, dated as of May 7, 2007 (the “ETE Unitholder Agreement”), between ETE, EPE, Davis and NGP. Under this agreement, EPE, Davis and NGP each agree not to transfer Common Units held by the parties as of the date of this agreement for a period of six months from the date of the agreement (the “Initial Restricted Period”), and, with respect to 50% of such Common Units, for twelve months after the date immediately after the end of the Initial Restricted Period; provided, however, parties may (i) sell or otherwise transfer their Common Units to their respective affiliates that agree in writing with ETE to be bound by the terms of the ETE Unitholder Agreement, (ii) pledge their Common Units as security for bona fide loans, letters of credit, interest rate or other hedging transactions and related fees, costs, indemnities and other obligations from one or more third parties who are not affiliates of such party, or (iii) sell all or a portion of their Common Units, as a result of any divestiture ordered by, or agreed to with, a governmental authority. These restrictions also do not restrict or affect the manner of sale or other disposition of any Common Units in connection with any foreclosure or other disposition after default of a lender or other counterparty in connection with the pledge of such securities for bona fide loans, letters of credit, interest rate or other hedging transactions and related fees, costs, indemnities and other obligations from one or more third parties who are not affiliates of such party.
 
After the Initial Restricted Period, EPE has certain demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the Common Units acquired by EPE.
 
The ETE Unitholder Agreement provides that unless (i) EPE has the prior written consent of ETE or (ii) EPE is making an offer and sale pursuant to an underwritten offering, EPE shall not sell, or offer to sell, after the end of the Initial Restricted Period, Common Units on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) or any other public market upon which the Common Units are then traded, on any trading day in an amount in excess of 10% of the average daily trading volume of the Common Units on the NYSE, or such other market, for the previous ten trading days, or such other amount as may be mutually agreed upon in writing by ETE and EPE.
 
The ETE Unitholder Agreement further provides that from the date of this agreement through the date three years from the date of this agreement, EPE shall not, and agree to cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly without the prior written consent of the board of directors of the Issuer GP: (i) in any manner acquire, agree to acquire or make a proposal to acquire any Common Units or other securities or other property of ETE, Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. (“ETP”) or any of their respective affiliates if such acquisition would cause EPE and its affiliates to collectively own ETE Common Units in excess of 49.9% of the then outstanding Common Units, or (ii) form or join or in any way participate in a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with respect to any voting securities of ETE, ETP or any of their respective affiliates, other than a “group” consisting of one or more of the members of the general partner of ETE or ETP or EPE and EPE’s affiliates.
 
Based on EPE’s equity ownership of Common Units and membership interests in the Issuer GP acquired pursuant to the ETE Purchase Agreement, and the foregoing limitations and other contractual rights under these transaction documents, EPE will not have any rights to exercise control over ETE or the Issuer GP.

Except as stated above, no Reporting Person has any plans or proposals of the type referred to in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, although they reserve the right to formulate such plans or proposals in the future. The Reporting Persons may change their plans or proposals in the future. In determining from time to time whether to sell the Common Units reported as beneficially owned in this Schedule 13D (and in what amounts) or to retain such securities, the Reporting Persons will take into consideration such factors as they deem relevant, including the business and prospects of the Issuer, anticipated future developments concerning the Issuer, existing and anticipated market conditions from time to time, general economic conditions, regulatory matters, and other opportunities available to the Reporting Persons. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to acquire additional securities of the Issuer in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions (which may be with the Issuer or with third parties) or otherwise, to dispose of all or a portion of their holdings of securities of the Issuer or to change their intention with respect to any or all of the matters referred to in this Item 4.
