Explanation of Responses:

2. The reporting person is an owner of Class B limited partner interest in TEPPCO Unit II L.P. ("TEPPCO Unit"). TEPPCO Unit owns directly 123,185 units of TEPPCO Partners, L.P. ("TPP"). TEPPCO Unit is a Delaware limited partnership established for the benefit of certain EPCO, Inc. ("EPCO") employees who are its Class B limited partners. Duncan Family Interests, Inc.

The reporting person acquired these Class B limited partner interests in TEPPCO Unit from a grant of such interests by EPCO, in its capacity as general partner of TEPPCO Unit. The Class B limited partner interest owned by the reporting person represents an initial 100% Class B limited partner interest in TEPPCO Unit, in accordance with the Agreement of Limited Partnership of TEPPCO Unit.
3. On November 13, 2013, TEPPCO Unit will be liquidated and will distribute to the Class B Limited Partners units of TPP with an aggregate market value equal to (i) the aggregate market value of all TPP units held by TEPPCO Unit prior to liquidation (the "Liquidation Units"), minus (ii) (A) any debts or obligations of TEPPCO Unit, (B) all capital contributions to TEPPCO Unit by the Class A Partner, and (C) any accrued but unpaid preference return on such contributions.
