ETPs stable outlook reflects the large scale and diversity of its midstream asset base, the stability and consistency in its largely fee-based EBITDA stream and its record of equity issuance to supplement debt incurred to fund growth projects and acquisitions.

ETE RATING AGENCY VIEWS
ETEs Ba2 Corporate Family Rating (CFR) recognizes the benefits of the massive size and scope of ETEs midstream asset base Notwithstanding the residual nature of this cash flow, these subsidiary cash flow streams tend to have a high degree of stability and durability, a function of the largely fee-based and often contract backed assets generating these cash flows. However, given our expectation of continuing high levels of capital spending at ETP, WPZ and SXL through 2016, we dont foresee prospects for material debt reduction ETEs positive ratings outlook reflects the potential upside for EBITDA growth and a moderation in debt leverage as a consequence of the pending WMB merger, and further presumes ETE is successful in its execution of this very large business combination.
-Moodys; November 24, 2015
We expect to raise ETEs corporate credit rating to BB+ Our assessment of ETEs cash flow diversity remains positive. In our view, the combination adds impressive scale and diversity to the Energy Transfer franchise stand-alone debt leverage as neutral reflects our expectation that ETEs stand-alone debt to EBITDA will be around 3.4x in 2016
Our assessment of cash flow interruption risk as neutral reflects the relative stability of the underlying pro forma cash flows at WPZ (55% of estimated 2016 EBITDA), ETP (30%), Sunoco Logistics (8%), Sunoco L.P. (2%), and Lake Charles (5%), as well as our expectation that ETE will maintain distribution coverage at about 1x. Pro forma for the acquisition, we expect slightly higher consolidated cash flows to come from fee-based operations, around 85%, which will continue to provide good stability of upstream distributions to ETE.
-Standards & Poors; September 28, 2015
ETE is committed to maintaining and improving the overall credit profile of the Group

KEY TAKEAWAYS
ETE will derive its cash flow strength from:
Three of the largest investment grade diversified MLPs (ETP, SXL and WPZ) as well as a fast growing retail fuel MLP (SUN)
Increasing incentive distributions resulting from significant growth projects that have been announced by ETP, SXL and WPZ
Direct participation in a highly certain LNG export opportunity with fixed fees for 25 years from high credit quality customer
Largest energy infrastructure grou in the world
The Williams merger creates numerous benefits:
Enhances overall cash flow diversification by commodity exposure, geographic areas and customer base
Increases long-term cash flow growth
Improves pro forma credit profile
ETE will be stronger and better positioned with even greater strategic and financial optionality
WMB benefits from the size and strength of a broader, more diversified platform:
Tax-deferred exchange using a C-Corp structure
Attractive premium with significant upside through ownership of ETE Corp shares
Higher dividends per share and dividend growth than WMB on a stand-alone basis
Consolidated group has better potential for growth in a volatile commodity price environment
