ARTICLE II 
 REGISTRATION
RIGHTS 
  

	 	Section	2.01    Registration 

 At any time after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Holder shall have the option and right, exercisable by delivering a written notice to the Partnership (the “Demand Notice”), to obligate the Partnership to prepare and file a
registration statement under the Securities Act to permit the public resale of Registrable Securities then outstanding from time to time as permitted by Rule 415 of the Securities Act with respect to all of the Registrable Securities (the
“Registration Statement”). The Partnership shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective on or as soon as practicable after the receipt of the Demand Notice and in no event
later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the 

  
 4 








 
receipt of such Demand Notice (the “Effectiveness Deadline”). Any Registration Statement shall provide for the resale pursuant to any method or combination of methods
legally available to, and requested by, the Holder of any and all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement. The Partnership shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement filed pursuant to this
Section 2.01 to be effective, supplemented, amended and replaced to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for the resale of all Registrable Securities by the Holder until the earlier of the date on which
(i) all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have ceased to be Registrable Securities or (ii) five (5) years following the effective date of the Registration Statement (the “Effectiveness Period”).

  

	 	Section	2.02    Failure to Go Effective. 

 (a)    If a
Registration Statement required to be filed by Section 2.01 is not declared effective on or prior to the Effectiveness Deadline, then, each Holder shall be entitled to a payment (with respect to each Registrable Security
held by the Holder), as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, of 0.25% of the Liquidated Damages Multiplier per 30-day period, which shall accrue daily, for the first 90 calendar days immediately following
the Effectiveness Deadline increasing by an additional 0.25% of the Liquidated Damages Multiplier per 30-calendar-day period, which shall accrue daily, for each
subsequent 30-calendar-day period (i.e., 0.5% for 91-120 calendar days, 0.75% for 121-150
calendar days and 1.0% thereafter), up to a maximum of 1.0% of the Liquidated Damages Multiplier per 30-calendar-day period, until such time as such Registration
Statement is declared effective or when the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement cease to be Registrable Securities (the “Liquidated Damages”). The Liquidated Damages payable pursuant to the immediately
preceding sentence shall be payable within 10 Business Days after the end of each such 30-calendar-day period. Any payment made pursuant to this paragraph shall
constitute each Holders’ exclusive remedy for such events. 
 (b)    Any Liquidated Damages shall be paid to each
Holder in immediately available funds; provided, however, if the Partnership certifies that it is unable to pay Liquidated Damages in cash because such payment would result in a breach of any covenant or constitute a default under a credit
facility, indenture, note purchase agreement or other debt instrument filed as an exhibit to the Partnership’s periodic reports filed with the Commission, then the Partnership may pay such Liquidated Damages using as much cash as permitted
without breaching any such credit facility or other debt instrument and shall pay the balance of such Liquidated Damages (the “In-Kind LD Amount”) in kind in the form of the issuance of
additional Common Units. Upon any issuance of Common Units as Liquidated Damages, the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) prepare and file an amendment to such Registration Statement prior to its effectiveness adding
such Common Units to such Registration Statement as additional Registrable Securities and (ii) prepare and file a supplemental listing application with the National Securities Exchange on which the Registrable Securities are then listed and
traded to list such additional Common Units; provided, that any such Common Units issued pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) shall not be entitled to Liquidated Damages. The number of Common Units to be issued as Liquidated Damages shall
be equal to the quotient of the In-Kind LD Amount divided by the VWAP Price. 

  
 5 








 (c)    The accrual of Liquidated Damages to a Holder shall cease (an
“LD Termination Date,” and, each such period beginning on an Effectiveness Deadline and ending on an LD Termination Date being, an “LD Period”) at the earlier of (i) the date on which the applicable
Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission or (ii) the date on which the Holder’s Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement cease to be Registrable Securities. Any amount of Liquidated Damages shall
be prorated for any period of less than 30 calendar days accruing during an LD Period. If the Partnership is unable to cause a Registration Statement to be declared effective on or prior to the applicable Effectiveness Deadline as a result of an
acquisition, merger, reorganization, disposition or other similar transaction then the Partnership shall not be responsible for any Liquidated Damages with respect to such Registration Statement. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this
Section 2.02 shall relieve the Partnership from its obligations under Section 2.01. 
  

	 	Section	2.03    Delay Rights 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the Partnership may, upon written notice to any Selling Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement, suspend such Selling Holder’s use of any prospectus which is a part of the Registration
Statement (in which event the Selling Holder shall discontinue sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement but may settle any previously made sales of Registrable Securities) if (i) the Partnership is pursuing an
acquisition, merger, reorganization, disposition or other similar transaction and the Partnership determines in good faith that the Partnership’s ability to pursue or consummate such a transaction would be adversely affected by any required
disclosure of such transaction in the Registration Statement or (ii) the Partnership has experienced some other material non-public event the disclosure of which at such time, in the good faith judgment
of the Partnership, would adversely affect the Partnership; provided, however, in no event shall the Selling Holder be suspended from selling Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or other registration statement for a
period that exceeds an aggregate of sixty (60) days in any 180-day period or 105 days in any 365-day period, in each case, exclusive of days covered by any lock-up agreement executed by a Selling Holder in connection with any Underwritten Offering. Upon disclosure of such information or the termination of the condition described above, the Partnership shall provide
prompt (and in no event more than one (1) Business Day’s) notice to the Selling Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement, and shall promptly terminate any suspension of sales it has put into effect and
shall take such other reasonable actions to permit registered sales of Registrable Securities as contemplated in this Agreement. 
  

	 	Section	2.04    Piggyback Rights. 


(a)    Participation. So long as a Holder has Registrable Securities, if, (i) prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Partnership proposes to file a registration statement for the sale of Common Units in an Underwritten Offering for its own account or (ii) at any time, the Partnership proposes to file a
registration statement for the sale of Common Units held by a Person other than the Partnership, then as soon as practicable following the selection of the Managing Underwriter for such Underwritten Offering or the receipt of notice of such resale
registration statement, as applicable, the Partnership shall give notice (for the avoidance of doubt, including, but not limited to, notification by electronic mail) of the filing of such 

  
 6 








 
registration statement to each Holder that (together with its Affiliates) holds at least the Piggyback Threshold Amount, and such notice shall offer such Holders the opportunity to include in
such Underwritten Offering or resale registration statement, as applicable, such number of Registrable Securities (the “Included Registrable Securities”) as each such Holder may request in writing; provided, however, that
(A) the Partnership shall not be required to provide such opportunity to any such Holder that (together with its Affiliates) does not offer a minimum of the Piggyback Threshold Amount, and (B) in the case of an Underwritten Offering on
behalf of the Partnership, if the Partnership has been advised by the Managing Underwriter that the inclusion of Registrable Securities for sale for the benefit of the Holders will have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the
Common Units in the Underwritten Offering, then (x) if no Registrable Securities can be included in the Underwritten Offering in the opinion of the Managing Underwriter, the Partnership shall not be required to offer such opportunity to the
Holders or (y) if any Registrable Securities can be included in the Underwritten Offering in the opinion of the Managing Underwriter, then the amount of Registrable Securities to be offered for the accounts of Holders shall be determined based
on the provisions of Section 2.04(b). Any notice required to be provided in this Section 2.04(a) to Holders shall be provided on a Business Day and receipt of such notice shall be confirmed by the Holder. Each such Holder shall then
have two Business Days (or one Business Day in connection with any overnight or bought Underwritten Offering) after notice has been delivered to request in writing the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Offering or on such
resale registration statement, as applicable. If, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to undertake an Underwritten Offering or file a resale registration statement and prior to the closing of such Underwritten Offering or
effectiveness of such resale registration statement, respectively, the Partnership shall determine for any reason not to undertake or to delay such Underwritten Offering or resale registration statement, the Partnership may, at its election, give
written notice of such determination to the Selling Holders and, (1) in the case of a determination not to undertake such Underwritten Offering or resale registration statement, shall be relieved of its obligation to sell any Included
Registrable Securities in connection with such terminated Underwritten Offering or register the resale of any such Included Registrable Securities on such resale registration statement, respectively, and (2) in the case of a determination to
delay such Underwritten Offering or resale registration statement, shall be permitted to delay offering any Included Registrable Securities as part of such Underwritten Offering or registering any Included Registrable Securities on such resale
registration statement, respectively, for the same period as the delay in the Underwritten Offering or the resale registration statement, respectively. Any Selling Holder shall have the right to withdraw such Selling Holder’s request for
inclusion of such Selling Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering or resale registration statement by giving written notice to the Partnership of such withdrawal at or prior to the time of pricing of such Underwritten
Offering or effectiveness of such resale registration statement, respectively. Any Holder may deliver written notice (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the Partnership requesting that such Holder not
receive notice from the Partnership of any proposed Underwritten Offering or resale registration statement under this Section 2.04(a); provided, however, that such Holder may later revoke any such
Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from a Holder (unless subsequently revoked), the Partnership shall not be required to deliver any
notice to such Holder pursuant to this Section 2.04(a), and such Holder shall no longer be entitled to participate in Underwritten Offerings or resale registration statements by the Partnership pursuant to this Section 2.04(a). 

  
 7 








 (b)    Priority. If the Managing Underwriter of any proposed
Underwritten Offering of Common Units pursuant to Section 2.04(a) included in an Underwritten Offering involving Included Registrable Securities advises the Partnership that the total amount of Common Units that the Selling Holders and any
other Persons intend to include in such offering exceeds the number of Common Units that can be sold in such offering without being likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Common Units offered or the market for
the Common Units, then the Common Units to be included in such Underwritten Offering shall include the number of Registrable Securities that such Managing Underwriter advises the Partnership can be sold without having such adverse effect, with such
number to be allocated (i) first, to the Partnership or other party or parties requesting or initiating such registration and (ii) second, to the Selling Holders who have requested participation in such Underwritten Offering and to the
other holders of Common Units (other than holders of Registrable Securities) with registration rights entitling them to participate in such Underwritten Offering, allocated among such Selling Holders and other holders pro rata on the basis of the
number of Registrable Securities or Common Units held by each applicable Selling Holder or other holder or in such manner as they may agree. 
  

	 	Section	2.05    Sale Procedures 

 In connection with its obligations under
this Article II, the Partnership will use commercially reasonable efforts to: 
 (a)    prepare and file with the
Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as are necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective for the Effectiveness Period and as are necessary to comply with
the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement; 

(b)    furnish to each Selling Holder (i) as far in advance as reasonably practicable before filing the Registration
Statement or any supplement or amendment thereto, upon request, copies of reasonably complete drafts of all such documents proposed to be filed (including exhibits and each document incorporated by reference therein to the extent then required by
the rules and regulations of the Commission), and provide each such Selling Holder the opportunity to object to any information pertaining to such Selling Holder and its plan of distribution that is contained therein and make the corrections
reasonably requested by such Selling Holder with respect to such information prior to filing the Registration Statement or supplement or amendment thereto, and (ii) such number of copies of the Registration Statement and the prospectus included
therein and any supplements and amendments thereto as such Selling Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement; 

(c)    if applicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by
the Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any Selling Holder may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Partnership
will not be required to qualify generally to transact business in any jurisdiction where it is not then required to so qualify or to take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so
subject; 

  
 8 








 (d)    promptly notify each Selling Holder, at any time when a prospectus
relating thereto is required to be delivered by any of them under the Securities Act, of (i) the filing of the Registration Statement or any prospectus or prospectus supplement to be used in connection therewith, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, and, with respect to such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto; and (ii) the receipt of any written comments from the Commission with respect to any filing referred to in clause (i) and any written
request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or any prospectus or prospectus supplement thereto; 

(e)    immediately notify each Selling Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered
under the Securities Act, of (i) the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus or prospectus supplement contained in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any prospectus contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which a statement is made); (ii) the issuance
or express threat of issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; or (iii) the receipt by the Partnership of any notification
with respect to the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale under the applicable securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdiction. Following the provision of such notice, the Partnership agrees to as promptly as
practicable amend or supplement the prospectus or prospectus supplement or take other appropriate action so that the prospectus or prospectus supplement does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any prospectus supplement, in the light of the circumstances then existing) and to take such other commercially reasonable action as is
necessary to remove a stop order, suspension, threat thereof or proceedings related thereto; 
 (f)    upon request and
subject to appropriate confidentiality obligations, furnish to each Selling Holder copies of any and all transmittal letters or other correspondence with the Commission or any other governmental agency or self-regulatory body or other body having
jurisdiction (including any domestic or foreign securities exchange) relating to such offering of Registrable Securities; 

(g)    otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the
Commission, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 promulgated thereunder; 

(h)    cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement to be listed on each securities
exchange or nationally recognized quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Partnership are then listed and to maintain such registration; 

  
 9 








 (i)    use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable
Securities to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Partnership to enable the Selling Holders to consummate the disposition of such
Registrable Securities; and 
 (j)    provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by
such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement. 
 The Selling Holders, upon receipt of notice
from the Partnership of the happening of any event of the kind described in subsection (e) of this Section 2.05, shall forthwith discontinue offers and sales of the Registrable Securities by means of a
prospectus or prospectus supplement until the Selling Holders’ receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by subsection (e) of this Section 2.05 or until it is advised in
writing by the Partnership that the use of the prospectus may be resumed and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings incorporated by reference in the prospectus, and, if so directed by the Partnership, each Selling Holder will
deliver to the Partnership (at the Partnership’s expense) or destroy all copies in their possession or control, other than permanent file copies then in such Selling Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable
Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. 
  

	 	Section	2.06    Cooperation by Holders 

 The Partnership shall have no
obligation to include Registrable Securities of a Holder in the Registration Statement who has failed to timely furnish such information that the Partnership determines, after consultation with its counsel, is reasonably required in order for the
registration statement or prospectus supplement, as applicable, to comply with the Securities Act, and any such Holder shall not be entitled to Liquidated Damages in connection with the applicable Registration Statement. 

 

	 	Section	2.07    Restrictions on Public Sale by the Holder of Registrable Securities 


The Holder of Registrable Securities agrees to enter into a customary letter agreement with underwriters providing such Holder will not affect
any public sale or distribution of Registrable Securities during the ninety (90) calendar day period beginning on the date of a prospectus or prospectus supplement filed with the Commission with respect to the pricing of any Underwritten
Offering, provided that (i) the duration of the foregoing restrictions shall be no longer than the duration of the shortest restriction generally imposed by the underwriters on the Partnership or the officers, directors or any other
Affiliate of the Partnership on whom a restriction is imposed and (ii) the restrictions set forth in this Section 2.07 shall not apply to any Registrable Securities that are included in such Underwritten Offering by
such Holder. In addition, this Section 2.07 shall not apply to any Holder that is not entitled to participate in such Underwritten Offering, whether because such Holder delivered an
Opt-Out Notice prior to receiving notice of the Underwritten Offering or because such Holder (together with its Affiliates) holds less than the Piggyback Threshold Amount or because the Registrable Securities
held by such Holder may be disposed of without restriction pursuant to any section of Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect). 

  
 10 









	 	Section	2.08    Expenses. 

 (a)    Expenses. The
Partnership will pay all Registration Expenses, as determined in good faith by the General Partner. Each Selling Holder shall pay its pro rata share of all Selling Expenses in connection with any sale of its Registrable Securities hereunder. For the
avoidance of doubt, each Selling Holder’s pro rata allocation of Selling Expenses shall be the percentage derived by dividing (i) the number of Registrable Securities sold by such Selling Holder in connection with such sale by
(ii) the aggregate number of Registrable Securities sold by all Selling Holders in connection with such sale. In addition, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.09 hereof, the Partnership shall not be responsible
for legal fees incurred by Holders in connection with the exercise of such Holders’ rights hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Partnership will pay all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Selling Holders, as determined in
good faith by the Selling Holders, including all fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants and advisors retained by the Selling Holders, in an amount not to exceed $35,000 in the aggregate under this Agreement. 

 

	 	Section	2.09    Indemnification. 

 (a)    By the
Partnership. In the event of a registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Partnership will indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Holder named therein, its directors, officers, managers,
employees and agents and each Person, if any, who controls any such Selling Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and its directors, officers, managers, employees or agents (collectively, the “Selling Holder
Indemnified Persons”), from and against any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”), joint or several, to which any Selling Holder
Indemnified Person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact (in the case of any prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which such statement is made) contained in (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes documents incorporated by
reference in) the Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement, any preliminary prospectus, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or
supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and will reimburse each such Selling Holder Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Loss or
actions or proceedings; provided, however, that the Partnership will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission so made in conformity with information furnished by or on behalf of such Selling Holder Indemnified Person in writing specifically for use in the Registration Statement or such other registration statement, or prospectus supplement, as
applicable. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Selling Holder Indemnified Person, and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Selling Holder. 

  
 11 








 (b)    By each Selling Holder. Each Selling Holder agrees severally
and not jointly to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership, the General Partner, its directors, officers, managers, employees and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Partnership within the meaning of the Securities Act or of the
Exchange Act, and its directors, officers, managers, employees and agents, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Partnership to the Selling Holders, but only with respect to information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such
Selling Holder expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement, any preliminary prospectus, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus or final prospectus contained
therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof; provided, however, that the liability of each Selling Holder shall not be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of any Selling Expenses) received by such Selling Holder
from the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification. 
 (c)    Notice. Promptly after
receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing
thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party other than under this Section 2.09. In any action brought against any
indemnified party, it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under
this Section 2.09 for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected;
provided, however, that, (i) if the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party or (ii) if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party
and the indemnifying party and counsel to the indemnified party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or if
the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to
participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other reasonable expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, no indemnifying party shall settle any action brought against any indemnified party with respect to which such indemnified party is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the consent of the indemnified party,
unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete and unconditional release from all liability of, the indemnified party. 

(d)    Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.09 is held by
a court or government agency of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to any indemnified party or is insufficient to hold them harmless in respect of any Losses, then each such indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to 

  
 12 








 
reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of such indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses, as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that in no event shall a Selling Holder be required to contribute an aggregate amount in excess of the dollar amount of proceeds (net of Selling Expenses) received by
such Selling Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification. The relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact has been made by, or relates to, information supplied by such party, and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this paragraph were to be determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph
shall be deemed to include any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any Loss that is the subject of this paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

(e)    Other Indemnification. The provisions of this Section 2.09 shall be in addition to
any other rights to indemnification or contribution that an indemnified party may have pursuant to law, equity, contract or otherwise. 
  

	 	Section	2.10    Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights.  

 The
rights to cause the Partnership to register Registrable Securities granted to the Purchasers by the Partnership under this Article II may be transferred or assigned by any Purchaser to one or more transferees or assignees of Registrable
Securities, subject to the transfer restrictions provided in Article 6 of the Partnership Agreement; provided, however, that (a) the Partnership is given written notice prior to any said transfer or assignment, stating the name
and address of the transferee or assignee and identifying the Registrable Securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned and (b) each such transferee or assignee assumes in writing responsibility for
its portion of the obligations of such Purchaser under this Agreement.

 Damages in the event of breach of

other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, enjoining any such breach, and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof, and each of the parties hereto hereby waives any and all defenses it may have on the ground of lack

have.

 This Agreement is intended by the parties
as a final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. There are no restrictions, promises,

current or future director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder or Affiliate of any of the foregoing, as such, for any obligations of the Purchasers under this Agreement or any documents or instruments
