Allocation of Capital Priorities and Rationale “All of the Above” Approach Support and grow cash distributions to partners •For partnerships, distributions are the most direct and tax efficient method to return capital to partners st 1 § Substantially all of the incremental distributions are tax deferred to partners •Provides cash to partners to pay taxes on allocable share of partnership taxable income Invest in midstream energy infrastructure with attractive, long‐term returns on investment • Investments in infrastructure to expand, complement and enhance EPD’s existing system nd 2 • Criteria: return on investment and economic benefits well exceed cost of capital and cash return on buybacks •Goal of increasing cash flow per unit Support strong balance sheet and financial flexibility • Flexibility to support business activities, investment opportunities and distributions to partners throughout business cycles as well as regulatory and legislative risks •Avoid need to raise expensive capital during periods of financial stress in capital markets rd 3 •Energy evolution / transition expected to be capital intensiveand inflationary across the entire energy and manufacturing value chain from the producer to the end use consumer • Support investment grade debt rating Buybacks • Opportunistic; during periods of unit price dislocation •For partnerships, less efficient method to return capital directly to partners th 4 § Generally, each unit repurchased increases taxable income and liability for remaining partners § Partners’ ability to realize benefit is primarily limited to selling partnership units, which results in tax liability from the recapture of cumulative deferred income over the life of the investment Page 3 © All Rights Reserved.

Key Investment Considerations • Successful history of responsibly returning capital to partners § “All of the Above” approach § Primarily focused on distributions: most direct and tax efficient return of capital § 23 consecutive years of distribution growth throughout business cycles § Opportunistic buybacks • Proven track record of midstream investments that have provided consistent and attractive returns on capital and resulted in cash flow per unit growth • Completed financial model transition while continuing to grow cash distributions to partners and avoiding material asset sales § From 2017 to 2021, EPD transitioned from legacy MLP financing model of investments funded primarily with external capital to a model that is primarily funded with internal cash flow § Transition period included weathering a volatile business cycle and global pandemic • Strong balance sheet provides financial flexibility § Flexibility to support business activities, investment opportunities and distributions to partners throughout business cycles as well as regulatory and legislative risks § Support long‐term financial health of the partnership § One of the highest debt ratings in midstream sector • Unsurpassed alignment of GP and Management with Common Equity Holders § GP and management own 32% of LP Units; no GP incentive distribution rights § GP has provided over $2.7 billion of support in growth of the partnership Page 13 © All Rights Reserved.

APPENDIX
Definitions • Operational Distributable Cash Flow (“DCF”) represents DCF excluding proceeds from asset sales and property damage insurance claims and net receipts / payments from the monetization of interest rate derivative instruments. • Net Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities (“CFFO”)represents the GAAP financial measure “Net cash flows provided by operating activities”. • CFFO Payout Ratiois calculated as trailing 12 months distributions + distribution equivalent rights + buybacks divided by the trailing 12 months cash flow from operations. • Leverageis defined as net debt divided by adjusted EBITDA. • Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”)is calculated by dividing non‐GAAP gross operating margin for the assets (the numerator) by the average historical cost of the underlying assets (the denominator). The average historical cost includes fixed assets, investments in unconsolidated affiliates, intangible assets and goodwill. Like gross operating margin, the historical cost amounts used in determining ROIC are before depreciation and amortization and reflect the original purchase or construction cost.

Distributable Cash Flow We measure cash available for distribution by reference to distributable cash flow (“DCF”). DCF is a quantitative standard used by the investment community for evaluating publicly traded partnerships since the value of a partnership unit is, in part, measured by its yield, which is based on the amount of cash distributions a partnership can pay to a unitholder. Our management compares the DCF we generate to the cash distributions we expect to pay our partners to compute our distribution coverage ratio. Our calculation of DCF may or may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

See “Investors – Non‐GAAP Financial Measures” on our website (www.enterpriseproducts.com)formore information regarding DCF, including additional reconciliation detail.

Gross Operating Margin We evaluate segment performance based on our financial measure of gross operating margin (“GOM”). GOM is an important performance measure of the core profitability of our operations and forms the basis of our internal financial reporting. We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that our management uses in evaluating segment results. GOM is presented on a 100 percent basis before any allocation of earnings to noncontrolling interests. Our calculation of GOM may or may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The GAAP financial measuremostdirectlycomparabletototalsegmentGOMisoperatingincome.
