On July 18, 2018 (the
“Purchase Date”), Boardwalk GP, LP, a Delaware limited partnership and the general partner (the “General Partner”)
of Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), completed its previously announced
purchase (the “Transaction”) of all of the issued and outstanding common units representing limited partner interests
in the Partnership (“Common Units”) not already owned by the General Partner or its affiliates for a cash purchase
price, determined in accordance with the Partnership’s Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended
(the “Limited Partnership Agreement”), of $12.06 per unit (the “Purchase Price”), or approximately $1.50
billion in the aggregate. The Transaction was conducted in accordance with Section 15.1(b) of the Limited Partnership Agreement.
As of the Purchase
Date, all rights of the holders of the Common Units not owned by the General Partner or its affiliates have been extinguished,

Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Loews Corporation, now owns, directly or indirectly, 100 percent of the Common Units and there
is no longer a public market for the Common Units. The Partnership has voluntarily withdrawn the Common Units from listing on the
New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and from registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended. The Common Units are no longer listed on the NYSE beginning as of July 19, 2018.
