(g) any Lien created or assumed by the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with the issuance of Debt the interest on which is excludable from gross income of the holder of such Debt pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any successor statute, for the purpose of financing, in whole or in part, the acquisition or construction of property or assets to be used by the Partnership or any Subsidiary;
(h) Permitted Liens;
-6-
(i) any Lien on any additions, improvements, replacements, repairs, fixtures, appurtenances or component parts thereof, attaching to or required to be attached to property or assets pursuant to the terms of any mortgage, pledge agreement, security agreement or other similar instrument, creating a Lien upon such property or assets permitted by Clauses (a) through (h), inclusive, of this Section; or
(j) any extension, renewal, refinancing, refunding or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals, refinancings, refundings or replacements) of any Lien, in whole or in part, that is referred to in Clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section, or of any Debt secured thereby; provided, however, that the principal amount of Debt secured thereby shall not exceed the greater of (1) the principal amount of Debt so secured at the time of such extension, renewal, refinancing, refunding or replacement (plus the aggregate amount of premiums, other payments, costs and expenses required to be paid or incurred in connection with such extension, renewal, refinancing, refunding or replacement) and (2) the maximum committed principal amount of Debt so secured at such time; provided further, however, that such extension, renewal, refinancing, refunding or replacement shall be limited to all or a part of the property or assets (including improvements, alterations and repairs on such property or assets) subject to the Lien so extended, renewed, refinanced, refunded or replaced (plus improvements, alterations and repairs on such property or assets).
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the Partnership may, and may permit any Subsidiary to, create, assume, incur or suffer to exist any Lien upon any Principal Property or capital stock of a Restricted Subsidiary to secure Debt of the Partnership or any other Person (other than the Debt Securities) that is not excepted by Clauses (a) through (j), inclusive, of this Section without securing the Debt Securities issued hereunder, provided that the aggregate principal amount of all Debt then outstanding secured by such Lien and all other Liens not excepted by Clauses (a) through (j), inclusive, of this Section, together with all net sale proceeds from Sale-Leaseback Transactions (excluding Sale-Leaseback Transactions permitted by Clauses (a) through (d), inclusive, of Section 4.14), does not exceed at any one time 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

-7-
(d) the Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary, within a one-year period after such Sale-Leaseback Transaction, applies or causes to be applied an amount not less than the net sale proceeds from such Sale-Leaseback Transaction to (1) the prepayment, repayment, redemption or retirement of any unsubordinated Funded Debt of the Partnership or any Funded Debt of a Subsidiary of the Partnership, or (2) investment in another Principal Property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the Partnership may, and may permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, effect any Sale-Leaseback Transaction that is not excepted by Clauses (a) through (d), inclusive, of this Section, provided that the net sale proceeds from such Sale-Leaseback Transaction, together with the aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Debt (other than the Debt Securities) secured by Liens upon Principal Properties not excepted by Clauses (a) through (j), inclusive, of Section 4.13, do not exceed at any one time 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.
Section 4.15. Compliance with and Modification of Organizational Documents. The Partnership shall comply with the terms and provisions of Sections 2.9 and 12.9 of its Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of April 22, 2004, and shall not amend, supplement or otherwise modify (pursuant to a waiver or otherwise) any of such Sections in a manner materially adverse to the interests of the Holders of the Notes unless both (i) Magellan Midstream Holdings, L.P. no longer owns an interest in the General Partner, and (ii) the Partnership obtains a Ratings Affirmation in connection with any such amendment, supplement, modification or failure to comply.”

5. Optional Redemption. (a) At its option, the Issuer may choose to redeem all or any portion of the Notes, at once or from time to time.
(b) To redeem the Notes, the Issuer must pay a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date
A-3
on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 25 basis points, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).
For purposes of determining the redemption price, the following definitions shall apply:
“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by the Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed.
“Comparable Treasury Price” means, for any Redemption Date, (1) the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.
“Independent Investment Banker” means ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Brothers Inc. and any successor firm, or if such firm is unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Trustee after consultation with the Partnership.
“Reference Treasury Dealer” means ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Brothers Inc., plus three other dealers selected by the Trustee that are primary U.S. government securities dealers in New York City and their respective successors; provided, if ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Brothers Inc. or any other primary U.S. government securities dealer selected by the Trustee shall cease to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer, then such other primary U.S. government securities dealers as may be substituted by the Trustee.
“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, for each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from
A-4
such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month) or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week in which the calculation date falls (or in the immediately preceding week if the calculation date falls on any day prior to the usual publication date for such release) or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. The Treasury Rate shall be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date. Any weekly average yields calculated by interpolation or extrapolation will be rounded to the nearest 1/100th of 1%, with any figure of 1/200th of 1% or above being rounded upward.
6. Mandatory Redemption. The Issuer shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes or to repurchase them at the option of the Holders.
7. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption and with respect to which the redemption price has been paid.
8. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes or other governmental charges imposed in relation thereto.
9. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as its owner for all purposes.
10. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture may be amended or supplemented for any of the purposes set forth in Section 9.01 of the Indenture, including to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation of the Issuer or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s assets, to add to the covenants of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, to cure any ambiguity or omission or to correct any defect or inconsistency, to permit the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, to add or release Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights under the Indenture of any Holder of the Notes, to add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of the Indenture in respect of one or more series of Debt Securities, to evidence or provide
A-5
for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture of a successor or separate Trustee or to establish the form or terms of any other series of Debt Securities.
11. Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default with respect to the Notes include: (i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes; (ii) default in payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes when due at Stated Maturity, upon redemption or otherwise, (iii) failure by the Partnership or any Subsidiary Guarantor to comply for 60 days after notice with any of its other covenants or agreements in the Indenture relating to the Notes; (iv) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to the Issuer or, if and so long as the Notes are guaranteed by a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Subsidiary Guarantor; (v) any Guarantee ceasing to be in full force and effect or held in any judicial proceeding to be null and void, or any Subsidiary Guarantor denying or disaffirming its obligations under the Indenture or its Guarantee; (vi) default by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries in the payment at the Stated Maturity, after the expiration of any applicable grace period, of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Debt then outstanding having a principal amount in excess of $50.0 million, or acceleration of any Debt having a principal amount in excess of such amount so that it becomes due and payable prior to its Stated Maturity and such acceleration is not rescinded within 30 days after notice; (vii) a final judgment or order for the payment of money in excess of $50.0 million (net of applicable insurance coverage) having been rendered against the Partnership or any Subsidiary and such judgment or order continues unsatisfied and unstayed for a period of 30 days and (viii) the failure of the General Partner to comply with certain separateness provisions of its limited liability company agreement or the amendment or modification of such provisions. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all Outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. If and so long as the Trustee in good faith so determines, the Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default (except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes. The Partnership is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Partnership is required within 30 days after the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default and certain additional information.
12. Trustee Dealings with Issuer. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.
