INDEMNIFICATION, COSTS AND EXPENSES


 


Section 5.01         Indemnification
by Breitburn. Breitburn agrees to indemnify each Purchaser and its Representatives (the “Purchaser Related Parties”)
from costs, losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever, and hold each of them harmless against,
any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries), demands, and causes of action,
and, in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay or reimburse each of them for all costs, losses, liabilities, damages,
or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable
expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them
or asserted against or involve any of them), whether or not involving a Third Party Claim, as a result of, arising out of, or in
any way related to (i) the failure of any of the representations or warranties made by Breitburn contained herein to be true
and correct in all material respects as of the date made (except with respect to any provisions including the word “material,”
Material Adverse Effect or words of similar import, with respect to which such representations and warranties must have been true
and correct) or (ii) the breach of any covenants of Breitburn contained herein, provided that, in the case of the immediately
preceding clause (i), such claim for indemnification is made prior to the expiration of such representation or warranty; provided,
however, that for purposes of determining when an indemnification claim has been made, the date upon which a Purchaser Related
Party shall have given notice (stating in reasonable detail the basis of the claim for indemnification) to Breitburn shall constitute
the date upon which such claim has been made. No Purchaser Related Party shall be entitled to recover special, consequential or
punitive damages under this Section 5.01; provided, however, that such limitation shall not prevent any Purchaser Related
Party from recovering under this Section 5.01 for any such damages to the extent that such damages (x) are in the form
of diminution in value or (y) may be payable to a third party in connection with any Third Party Claims.


 




    	26



    	 



    

 


Section 5.02         Indemnification
by the Purchasers. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify Breitburn, the General Partner and their
respective Representatives (collectively, “Breitburn Related Parties”) from, costs, losses, liabilities, damages,
or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including
any investigations, litigation or inquiries), demands, and causes of action, and, in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand,
pay or reimburse each of them for all costs, losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including
the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending
or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or asserted against or involve any of them), whether or not
involving a Third Party Claim, as a result of, arising out of, or in any way related to (i) the failure of any of the representations
or warranties made by such Purchaser contained herein to be true and correct in all material respects as of the date made or (ii) the
breach of any of the covenants of such Purchaser contained herein, provided that, in the case of the immediately preceding clause
(i), such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of any representation or warranty is made prior to the expiration of such
representation or warranty; provided, however, that for purposes of determining when an indemnification claim has
been made, the date upon which a Breitburn Related Party shall have given notice (stating in reasonable detail the basis of the
claim for indemnification) to such Purchaser shall constitute the date upon which such claim has been made; provided, further,
that the liability of such Purchasers shall not be greater in amount than the sum of such Purchaser’s Series B Preferred
Unit Purchase Price plus any distributions paid to the Purchaser with respect to the Purchased Units. No Breitburn Related Party
shall be entitled to recover special, consequential or punitive damages under this Section 5.02; provided, however,
that such limitation shall not prevent any Breitburn Related Party from recovering under this Section 5.02 for any such
damages (x) are in the form of diminution in value or (y) to the extent that such damages may be payable to a third party
in connection with any Third Party Claims.


 


Section 5.03         Indemnification
Procedure.


 


(a)          A
claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third Party Claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification
is sought; provided, however, that failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not preclude the indemnified party from any
indemnification which it may claim in accordance with this Article V, except as otherwise provided in Section 5.01 and Section
5.02.


 




    	27



    	 



    

 


(b)          Promptly
after any Breitburn Related Party or Purchaser Related Party (hereinafter, the “Indemnified Party”) has received
notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by a third person, which the
Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an indemnifiable claim under this Agreement (each a “Third Party Claim”),
the Indemnified Party shall give the indemnitor hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such
Third Party Claim, but failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it
may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such
failure. Such notice shall state the nature and the basis of such Third Party Claim to the extent then known. The Indemnifying
Party shall have the right to defend and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel who shall be reasonably acceptable to
the Indemnified Party, any such matter. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend or settle, it shall promptly, and in no
event later than ten (10) days, notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate
with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in all commercially reasonable respects in the defense thereof and the settlement thereof.
Such cooperation shall include, but shall not be limited to, furnishing the Indemnifying Party with any books, records and other
information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or control. Such cooperation
of the Indemnified Party shall be at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified
Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for so long as the Indemnifying Party
diligently pursues such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified
Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall
be entitled (i) at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement
thereof and (ii) if (A) the Indemnifying Party has, within ten (10) Business Days of when the Indemnified Party provides written
notice of a Third Party Claim, failed (y) to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified
Party and (z) notify the Indemnified Party of such assumption or (B) 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 in addition 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 expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation
to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying
Party shall not settle any indemnified claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the settlement thereof imposes
no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete release from liability of, and does not include any admission of wrongdoing
or malfeasance by, the Indemnified Party. The remedies provided for in this Section 5.03 are cumulative and are not exclusive
of any remedies that may be available to a party at law or in equity or otherwise.


 


Section 5.04         Tax
Matters. All indemnification payments under this Article V shall be adjustments to the Purchase Price except as otherwise required
by applicable Law.

Section 6.04         Interpretation.
Article, Section, Schedule and Exhibit references in this Agreement are references to the corresponding Article, Section, Schedule
or Exhibit to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified. All Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement are hereby incorporated
and made a part hereof as if set forth in full herein and are an integral part of this Agreement. All references to instruments,
documents, Contracts and agreements are references to such instruments, documents, Contracts and agreements as the same may be
amended, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, unless otherwise specified. The word “including” shall
mean “including but not limited to” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows to the
specific or similar items or matters immediately following it. Whenever Breitburn has an obligation under the Basic Documents,
the expense of complying with that obligation shall be an expense of Breitburn unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this
Agreement to $ shall mean U.S. dollars. Whenever any determination, consent or approval is to be made or given by a Purchaser or
the Lead Purchasers, as applicable, such action shall be in such Purchaser’s or the Lead Purchasers’, as applicable,
sole discretion, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement. If any provision in the Basic Documents is held to be illegal, invalid,
not binding or unenforceable, (i) such provision shall be fully severable and the Basic Documents shall be construed and enforced
as if such illegal, invalid, not binding or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of the Basic Documents, and the
remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and (ii) the applicable parties hereto shall negotiate in good
faith to modify the Basic Documents so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable
manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant
to the Basic Documents, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded. If the last day of such
period is a non-Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding Business Day. Any words imparting the singular
number only shall include the plural and vice versa. The words such as “herein,” “hereinafter,” “hereof”
and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear unless
the context otherwise requires. The provision of a Table of Contents, the division of this Agreement into Articles, Sections and
other subdivisions and the insertion of headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect or be utilized in construing
or interpreting this Agreement.

of the Purchased Units and payment therefor and repayment, conversion or repurchase thereof. Regardless of any purported general
termination of this Agreement, the provisions of Article V and all indemnification rights and obligations of Breitburn and the
Purchasers thereunder, and this Article VI shall remain operative and in full force and effect as between Breitburn and each Purchaser,
unless Breitburn and the applicable Purchaser execute a writing that expressly (with specific references to the applicable Section

Waiver; Modifications in Writing.


 


(a)          Delay.
No failure or delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof,

that may be available to a party at law or in equity or otherwise.

Any amendment, supplement or modification of or to any provision of any Basic Document, any waiver of any provision of any Basic
Document and any consent to any departure by Breitburn from the terms of any provision of any Basic Document shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required
by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on Breitburn in any case shall entitle Breitburn to any other or further notice or demand
in similar or other circumstances. Any investigation by or on behalf of any party shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by
the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein.


 


Section 6.08         Binding
Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon Breitburn, the Purchasers and its successors and permitted assigns. Except as

Section 6.09         Confidentiality.
For the Confidentiality Period, no Purchaser shall, directly or indirectly, disclose to any person any confidential information
received from the Breitburn Entities, their Affiliates or their Representatives in any form, whether acquired prior to or after
the Closing Date, relating to the Breitburn Entities; provided, however, that the term “confidential information” does
not include information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than (a) as a result of a disclosure by
the Purchaser in violation of this Agreement or (b) in violation of a confidentiality obligation owed to the Breitburn Entities
and known to the Purchaser, (ii) is or becomes available to the Purchaser on a non-confidential basis from a source not known to
have an obligation of confidentiality to the Breitburn Entities, (iii) was already known to the Purchaser at the time of disclosure,
or (iv) is independently developed by the Purchaser without reference to any Confidential Information disclosed to the Board Observer.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Purchaser may disclose any such confidential information (i) to its Affiliates and to its and
its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, advisory committee members, investment committee members, limited partners,
investors and legal counsel (the “Permitted Recipients”) to whom such disclosure is necessary and who in each case
either (1) acknowledge that they are bound by the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement or (2) are bound by confidentiality
obligations to the Purchaser or its Affiliates that are at least as stringent as the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement,
and in each case the Purchasers shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such Permitted Recipients to keep any such information
confidential; (ii) to any transferee or proposed transferee of the Purchased Units permitted under the Partnership Agreement; (iii)
as required by applicable Law or any securities exchange or market rule; (iv) as may be requested or required by any Governmental
Authority (provided that such Purchaser first, to the extent legally permissible, notifies Breitburn and gives Breitburn the opportunity
to contest such request or requirement, in each case as permitted by applicable Law; or (v) except with prior notice of such request
for disclosure to, and consent of, Breitburn (which consent may be withheld in Breitburn’s sole discretion). As used in this
Agreement, “Confidentiality Period” shall mean (i) when used with regard to
EIG, the period from the date of this Agreement through the Standstill Termination Date (as defined in the Board Representation
and Standstill Agreement), (ii) when used with regard to Anchorage, the period from the Closing Date through the date that is eighteen
months from the last date that Anchorage received confidential information, and (iii) when used with regard to the Guggenheim Purchasers,
the period from the Closing Date through the date that is eighteen months from the last date that the Guggenheim Purchasers received
confidential information. At the Closing, that certain letter agreement by and between EIG Management Company, LLC and the General
Partner, dated as of January 26, 2015 (the “EIG Confidentiality Agreement”), and that certain letter agreement by and
between Anchorage Capital Group, L.L.C. and the General Partner, dated as of March 2, 2015 (together with the EIG Confidentiality
Agreement, the “Confidentiality Agreements”) shall each terminate and shall have no further force and effect, except
that no party to the Confidentiality Agreements shall be relieved or released from liability for damages arising out of a breach
of the Confidentiality Agreements before such respective terminations.

Section 6.11         Removal
of Legend. In connection with a sale of the Purchased Units by a Purchaser in reliance on Rule 144, the applicable Purchaser
or its broker shall deliver to the transfer agent and Breitburn a broker representation letter providing to the transfer agent
and Breitburn any information Breitburn deems necessary to determine that the sale of the Purchased Units is made in compliance
with Rule 144, including, as may be appropriate, a certification that the Purchaser is not an affiliate of Breitburn and regarding
the length of time the Purchased Units have been held. Upon receipt of such representation letter, Breitburn shall promptly direct
its transfer agent to remove the notation of a restrictive legend in such Purchaser’s or the book-entry account maintained
by the transfer agent, including the legend referred to in Section 4.05, and Breitburn shall bear all costs associated therewith.
At such time as the Purchased Units have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act or have been held by any Purchaser for more than one year if that Purchaser is not, and has not been in
the preceding three months, an affiliate of Breitburn (as defined in Rule 144), if the book-entry account or Certificate of
such Purchased Units still bears the notation of the restrictive legend referred to in Section 4.05, Breitburn agrees, upon
request of the Purchaser or permitted assignee, to take all steps necessary to promptly effect the removal of the legend described
in Section 4.05 from the Purchased Units, and Breitburn shall bear all costs associated therewith, regardless of
whether the request is made in connection with a sale or otherwise, so long as such Purchaser or its permitted assigns provide
to Breitburn any information Breitburn deems reasonably necessary to determine that the legend is no longer required under the
Securities Act or applicable state laws, including (if there is no such registration statement) a certification that the holder
is not an affiliate of Breitburn (and a covenant to inform Breitburn if it should thereafter become an affiliate and to consent
to the notation of an appropriate restriction) and regarding the length of time the Purchased Units have been held. Breitburn shall
cooperate with such Purchaser to effect the removal of the legend referred to in Section 4.05 at any time such legend is
no longer appropriate.

EXHIBIT A



FORM OF OPINION OF VINSON & ELKINS LLP


 


Capitalized terms used but not defined herein
have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Amended and Restated Series B Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase
Agreement”). Breitburn shall furnish to the Purchasers at the Closing an opinion of Vinson & Elkins LLP, counsel
for Breitburn, addressed to the Purchasers and dated the Closing Date in form satisfactory to the Lead Purchasers, stating that:


 


(i)          Each
of Breitburn, the General Partner, Breitburn Finance Corporation, Breitburn Management Company LLC, Breitburn Operating GP LLC,
Breitburn Operating LP, Breitburn Sawtelle LLC, Breitburn Florida LLC, Breitburn Oklahoma LLC, Breitburn Transpetco GP LLC, Breitburn
Transpetco LP LLC, Transpetco Pipeline Company, L.P., Breitburn Collingwood Utica LLC, QR Energy, LP, QRE GP, LLC and QRE Operating,
LLC (the “Delaware Entities”) has been duly formed and is validly existing and is in good standing as a limited
partnership, limited liability company or corporation, as applicable, under the Delaware LP Act, the Delaware LLC Act or the Delaware
General Corporation Law, as amended (the “DGCL”). Each of the Delaware Entities has full limited liability company,
limited partnership or corporate power and authority, as applicable, necessary to own or lease its properties and to conduct its
business, in each case in all material respects as described in the Breitburn SEC Documents. Each of the Delaware Entities is duly
qualified to do business and in good standing as a foreign limited partnership, foreign limited liability company or foreign corporation,
as applicable, in each jurisdiction as set forth on Annex 1 to this opinion.


 


(ii)         Except
as identified in the Purchase Agreement or provided for in the Partnership Agreement, there are no preemptive rights or other rights
to subscribe for or to purchase, nor any restriction upon the voting or transfer of any equity securities of the Partnership pursuant
to the Partnership Agreement or any other agreement or instrument listed on Annex 2 to this opinion. To such counsel’s
knowledge, the offering, issuance or sale of the Series B Preferred Units or the Conversion Units (as defined below) as contemplated
by the Purchase Agreement does not give rise to any rights for or relating to the registration of any Series B Preferred Units
or other securities of Breitburn other than rights which have been waived and other than rights as provided in the Registration
Rights Agreement by and among Breitburn Energy Partners LP, QR Holdings (QRE), LLC, QR Energy Holdings, LLC, Quantum Resources
A1, LP, Quantum Resources B, LP, Quantum Resources C, LP, QAB Carried WI, LP, QAC Carried WI, LP and Black Diamond Resources, LLC,
dated as of July 23, 2014.


 


(iii)        The
Purchased Units to be issued and sold by Breitburn to the Purchasers and the limited partner interests represented thereby have
been duly and validly authorized by the Partnership Agreement and, when issued and delivered against payment therefor as provided
in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid (to the extent required under the Partnership Agreement)
and nonassessable (except as such nonassessability may be affected by Sections 17-303, 17-607 and 17-804 of the Delaware LP Act).


 




    	Exhibit A-1



    	 



    

 


(iv)        The
[●] Common Units initially issuable upon conversion of the Purchased Units pursuant to the Partnership Agreement (the “Conversion
Units”) have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Partnership under the Delaware LP
Act and, when issued upon conversion of the Purchased Units in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, will be
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.


 


(v)         No
authorization, consent, approval, waiver, license, qualification, filing, declaration, qualification or registration with, any
Governmental Authority is required for the issuance and sale by Breitburn of the Purchased Units or the Conversion Units, the execution,
delivery and performance by the Breitburn of the Basic Documents, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by any of
such agreements, except (i) as may be required in connection with Breitburn’s obligations under the Registration Rights
Agreement to register the resale of the Purchased Units and the Common Units issuable upon conversion of the Purchased Units under
the Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, (ii) those that have been obtained,
(iii) as may be required under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or (iv) as may be required under state securities
or “Blue Sky” laws, as to which we do not express any opinion.


 


(vi)        Assuming
the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchasers and Breitburn contained in the Purchase Agreement, the offer,
issuance and sale of the Series B Preferred Units and the Conversion Units by Breitburn to the Purchasers solely in the manner
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; provided that we express
no opinion as to any subsequent sale.


 


(vii)       Breitburn
is not and, immediately after giving effect to the offering, issuance and sale by Breitburn of the Purchased Units and the application
of the proceeds therefrom, will not be an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended.


 


(viii)      None
of the offering, issuance and sale by Breitburn of the Series B Preferred Units or the Conversion Units or the execution, delivery
and performance of the Basic Documents by Breitburn or the General Partner or the consummation of the transactions contemplated

constitute a breach or violation of, or a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such
a default) under any document listed on Annex 2 to this opinion, (iii) violate the Delaware LP Act, the Delaware LLC Act
or federal law (collectively, the “Included Laws”), (iv) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon
any property or assets of any of the Delaware Entities, which breach, violation, default or lien, in the case of clauses (ii),
(iii) or (iv), could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or could reasonably
be expected to materially impair the ability of any of the Breitburn Entities to perform their obligations under the Basic Documents;
provided, however, that no opinion as to securities law is expressed in relation to the preceding clause (iii).

(ix)         Each
of the Basic Documents has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the parties thereto and is a valid and legally binding
agreement of such parties thereto, enforceable against the parties thereto in accordance with their respective terms; provided,
that, with respect to each such agreement, the enforceability thereof may be limited by (A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,

Agreement



 


Section 1.            Board
Observation Rights.


 


(a)          During
the period commencing upon the Closing and ending on the Board Rights Termination Date (as defined below), the Breitburn Entities
shall grant the Purchaser the option and right, exercisable by the Purchaser’s delivering a written notice signed by the
Purchaser of such appointment to the Breitburn Entities (the “Observer Notice”), to appoint a single representative,
and an alternate to the representative (each, the “Board Observer”) to attend all meetings (including telephonic)
of the Board and each committee of the Board (other than the Conflicts Committee) in an observer capacity. The Observer Notice
shall be delivered to the Breitburn Entities prior to the Board Observer’s attendance at any meeting of the Board or any
committee thereof. The Board Observer shall not constitute a member of the Board or any committee thereof and shall not be entitled
to vote on, or consent to, any matters presented to the Board or any committee thereof. The initial Board Observer shall be Clayton
Taylor, and his initial alternate shall be Richard K. Punches.


 


(b)          The
Breitburn Entities shall (i) give the Board Observer written notice of each meeting or action taken by written consent at the same
time and in the same manner as notice is given to the members of the Board, (ii) provide the Board Observer with copies of all
written materials and other information (including copies of minutes of meetings or written consents of the Board and each committee
of the Board (other than the Conflicts Committee) given to the members of the Board and each such committee in connection with
such meetings or actions taken by written consent) at the same time such materials and information are furnished to such members
of the Board and each such committee, and (iii) provide the Board Observer with the same right to attend (whether in person or
by telephone or other means of electronic communication as solely determined by the Board Observer) such meetings as is given to
a member of the Board or each such committee, as applicable. The Board Observer shall agree to maintain the confidentiality of
all non-public information and proceedings of the Board and any committee of the Board and to enter into, comply with, and be bound
by, in all respects, the terms and conditions of a confidentiality agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex
A (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). Purchaser shall be responsible for any breach by the Board Observer
of the Confidentiality Agreement and for the breach by any Permitted Recipient (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) of
their confidentiality obligations. Notwithstanding any rights to be granted or provided to the Board Observer hereunder, the Board,
the Board’s chairman, or any Board committee chairman (as to the material or meeting of that committee) may exclude the Board
Observer from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof.


 




    	2



    	 



    

 


 


(c)          The
rights of the Purchaser contained in this Section 1 and Section 2 shall immediately cease and terminate on the earlier
of (i) the Series B Voting Termination Date (unless such Series B Voting Termination Date is solely the result of the conversion
of Purchased Units (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) into Common Units pursuant to the Partnership Agreement) or (ii) on or
after the initial conversion of Series B Preferred Units held by the Series B Purchasers pursuant to the Partnership Agreement,
the date on which the Series B Purchasers no longer own (A) Common Units issued in respect of any such conversion or any prior
conversion and (B) Series B Preferred Units on an as-converted basis (based on the Series B Conversion Ratio then in effect) that,
together, are equal in number to seven-and-one-half percent (7.5%) or more of the total number of outstanding Common Units
(counting for this purpose in the denominator used to calculate such percentage, all outstanding Series B Preferred Units as though
they were outstanding Common Units based on the Series B Conversion Ratio then in effect), regardless of whether such failure to
own such number of Common Units results from sales by the Series B Purchasers, dilution as the result of new issuances by the Partnership,
or otherwise (such earlier date, the “Board Rights Termination Date”); provided that, notwithstanding
the foregoing, under no circumstances shall the Board Rights Termination Date be deemed to have occurred so long as the Series
B Purchasers continue to beneficially own, solely among the Series B Purchasers, the majority of the Series B Preferred Units issued
on the Series B Original Issue Date plus a majority of the PIK Units, if any, paid with respect to the Series B Preferred Units
issued on the Series B Original Issue Date. From and after the Board Rights Termination Date, the rights of the Purchaser in this
Section 1 and Section 2 shall cease.


 


Section 2.            Board
Designation Rights.


 


(a)          During
the period commencing upon the Closing and ending on the Board Rights Termination Date, the Breitburn Entities shall grant the
Purchaser the option and right, exercisable by the Purchaser’s delivering a written notice signed by the Purchaser, to designate
one person to serve as a Director on the Board (the “Purchaser Designated Director”); provided, however,
that such Purchaser Designated Director shall, in the reasonable judgment of the General Partner, (i) have the requisite skill
and experience to serve as a director of a public company, (ii) not be prohibited from serving as a Director pursuant to any rule
or regulation of the Commission or any National Securities Exchange on which the Partnership’s Common Units are listed or
admitted to trading, and (iii) not be an employee or director of any Competitor (as defined below); and provided, further,
that as a condition precedent to service on the Board, the Purchaser Designated Director shall deliver to the Board his or her
written resignation from the Board that the Board or its chairman may, in the Board’s or the chairman’s sole discretion,
accept and make effective at any time on or after the Board Rights Termination Date. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Competitor”
shall mean any person or entity that (a) is an operating company (and not a person or entity, the primary business purpose of which
is to operate energy assets in the upstream energy sector; it being agreed that “Competitor” shall not include
any company the primary business purpose of which is to provide financing directly or indirectly to unaffiliated entities, whether
or not engaged in the upstream energy sector) and (b) engages in the upstream energy business or otherwise provides similar services
or engages in a similar business as the Partnership. The Breitburn Entities shall take all actions necessary or advisable to effect
the first sentence of this Section 2(a), including contemporaneously with or immediately following the Closing to increase the
size of the Board by one Director and to appoint the Purchaser Designated Director as a Class III Director, to serve an initial
term that expires no earlier than the annual meeting of the Unitholders to be held in 2017. The initial Purchaser Designated Director
is Kurt Talbot. The Purchaser agrees upon the Partnership’s request to, and to cause the Purchaser Designated Director to,
timely provide the Partnership with accurate and complete information relating to the Purchaser Designated Director as may be required
to be disclosed by the Partnership under the Securities Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The
Purchaser further agrees to cause the Purchaser Designated Director to comply with the Section 16 filing obligations under the
Securities Exchange Act. At each applicable election of Directors, the Board shall nominate the Purchaser Designated Director,
which designee must meet the standards set forth above, as part of the slate of Directors nominated by the Board for election by
the Unitholders and shall recommend that the Unitholders vote for the Purchaser Designated Director. Additionally, in the event
of the resignation, death, or removal (for cause or otherwise) of the Purchaser Designated Director, the Purchaser shall have the
right to designate the person to be appointed by the Board as the Purchaser Designated Director to fill the resulting vacancy (subject
to such designee meeting the standards set forth above). Any action by the Purchaser to designate a Purchaser Designated Director
shall be evidenced in writing furnished to the Breitburn Entities and shall be executed by the Purchaser. While serving as a Purchaser
Designated Director, a Purchaser Designated Director shall be entitled to compensation commensurate with that of an independent
member of the Board and reimbursed for reasonable expenses consistent with the General Partner’s policies applicable to other
non-employee directors.


 




    	3



    	 



    

 


 


(b)          The
option and right to appoint a Board Observer or Purchaser Designated Director granted to the Purchaser by the Partnership under
Section 1 and this Section 2, respectively, may not be transferred or assigned by the Purchaser, provided,
however, that the Purchaser may assign all (but not less than all) of its rights under Section 1 and Section 2
to any of its Affiliates with the prior written consent of the Partnership, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed. Such a permitted assignee, upon and after such consent, shall be considered the Purchaser under this Agreement.


 


(c)          On
the Board Rights Termination Date, the rights of the Purchaser under this Section 2, including the right to designate a
Purchaser Designated Director, shall automatically terminate. In addition to the obligation in Section 2(a) of each Purchaser
Designated Director to deliver the written resignation described therein, on and after the Board Rights Termination Date, the Purchaser
agrees, promptly upon (and in any event within two (2) Business Days following) receipt of a written request from the Partnership,
to cause the Purchaser Designated Director then serving as a member of the Board to resign from the Board effective immediately.


 


Section 3.            Limitation
of Liability; Indemnification; Business Opportunities.


 


(a)          At
all times while the Purchaser Designated Director is serving as a member of the Board, and following any such Purchaser Designated
Director’s death, resignation, removal or other cessation as a director in such former Purchaser Designated Director’s
capacity as a former director, the Purchaser Designated Director shall be entitled to (i) the same modification and restriction
of traditional fiduciary duties, (ii) the same safe harbors for resolving conflicts of interest transactions, and (iii) all rights
to indemnification and exculpation, in each case, as are then made available to any other member of the Board.


 


(b)          For
the avoidance of doubt, the Board Observer shall have (i) no fiduciary duty to the Breitburn Entities or to any Limited Partner
and (ii) no obligations to the Breitburn Entities under this Agreement, except as described in Section 1 of this Agreement,
or to any Limited Partner.


 




    	4



    	 



    

 


(c)          At
all times while the Board Observer is serving in such capacity in accordance with Section 1 of this Agreement, such Board
Observer, the Purchaser and its respective Affiliates may engage in, possess an interest in, or trade in the securities of, other
business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the Breitburn
Entities, and the Breitburn Entities, the Board and their Affiliates shall have no rights by virtue of this Agreement in and to
such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if competitive
with the business of the Breitburn Entities, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. None of the Board Observer, the Purchaser
or its respective Affiliates shall be obligated to present any investment opportunity to the Breitburn Entities even if such opportunity
is of a character that the Breitburn Entities or any of their respective subsidiaries might reasonably be deemed to have pursued
or had the ability or desire to pursue if granted the opportunity to do so, and each of the Board Observer, the Purchaser or its
respective Affiliates shall have the right to take for such person’s own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary)
or to recommend to others any such investment opportunity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board Observer shall be subject to,
and comply with, the requirement to maintain confidential information pursuant to this Agreement.


 


(d)          The
Breitburn Entities shall purchase and maintain (or reimburse the Purchaser Designated Director for the cost of) insurance (“D&O
Insurance”), on behalf of the Purchaser Designated Director, against any liability that may be asserted against, or expense
that may be incurred by, such Purchaser Designated Director in connection with the Breitburn Entities’ activities or such
Purchaser Designated Director’s activities on behalf of the Breitburn Entities, regardless of whether the Breitburn Entities
would have the power to indemnify such Purchaser Designated Director against such liability under the provisions of the Partnership
Agreement (as it may be amended from time to time) or the GP LLC Agreement (as it may be amended from time to time). Such D&O
Insurance shall provide coverage commensurate with that of an independent member of the Board.


 


Section 4.            Purchaser’s
Voting Obligations.


 


(a)          Purchaser
agrees that, during the Voting Period, at any meeting of the Unitholders, however called, or at any adjournment or postponement
thereof, or in connection with any written consent of the Unitholders or in any other circumstances upon which a vote, consent
or other approval of all or some of the Unitholders is sought solely with respect to the matters described in this Section 4. Purchaser
shall vote (or cause to be voted) or execute (or cause to be executed) consents with respect to, as applicable, all of the Units
owned (beneficially or of record) by the Series B Purchasers as of the applicable record date (i) in favor of (FOR) the election
of the persons named in the Partnership’s proxy statement as the Board’s nominees for election as directors, and against
any other nominees and (ii) in favor of (FOR) the adoption of or amendment to any equity-based compensation plans presented by
the Board for Unitholder vote that is similar with respect to amount and types of awards for long-term incentive plans of publicly
traded upstream oil and gas companies.


 


(b)          With
respect to any vote of the Unitholders held during the Voting Period with respect to the matters set forth in Section 4(a), the
Purchaser shall, and shall cause the other Series B Purchasers on any applicable record date to, appear at such meeting or otherwise
cause all of the Units held by the Series B Purchasers to be counted as present thereat for purposes of establishing a quorum.
Any vote required to be cast or consent required to be executed pursuant to this Section 4 shall be cast or executed in
accordance with the applicable procedures relating thereto so as to ensure that it is duly counted for purposes of recording the
results of that vote or consent.


 




    	5



    	 



    

 


 


(c)          
“Voting Period” means the period from and including the date of this Agreement through and including the annual
meeting of Unitholders to elect Directors to the Board that is held in 2017 (including any adjournments and postponements thereof).


 


(d)          In
addition, during the period commencing on the Closing and ending on the Board Rights Termination Date, with respect to any proposal
to remove Breitburn GP LLC as the general partner of the Partnership, the Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not
to, vote (or give consents for) a proportion of their Series B Preferred Units and Common Units in favor of removal that exceeds
the proportion of (i) the Common Units (plus Series B Preferred Units counted on an as-converted basis consistent with Section
17.5(a) of the Partnership Agreement) voted in favor of such proposal by the Unitholders other than the Purchaser and its Affiliates
as compared to (ii) all Common Units (plus Series B Preferred Units counted on an as-converted basis consistent with Section
17.5(a) of the Partnership Agreement) held by the Unitholders other than the Purchaser and its Affiliates.


 


Section 5.            Standstill.


 


(a)          During
the period commencing on the Closing and ending on the Standstill Termination Date, the Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its
Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly:


 


(i)          engage
in any hostile or takeover activities with respect to the Partnership or the General Partner (including by means of a tender offer
or soliciting proxies or written consents, other than as recommended by the Board);


 


(ii)         acquire
or propose to acquire beneficial ownership of additional Common Units, Series B Preferred Units or other Partnership Securities
that in the aggregate, together with their beneficial ownership of any other Units, is equal to beneficial ownership of twenty
percent (20%) or more of the voting power of the outstanding Common Units (taking into account the voting rights of the Series
B Preferred Units on an as-converted basis), provided that, the foregoing shall not prohibit or apply to the receipt of any PIK

All references to instruments, documents, contracts and agreements are references to such instruments, documents, contracts and
agreements as the same may be amended, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, unless otherwise specified. The word

that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it. Whenever any determination, consent or approval
is to be made or given by a Party, such action shall be in such Party’s sole discretion, unless otherwise specified in this
Agreement. If any provision in this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, not binding or unenforceable, (i) such provision
shall be fully severable and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, not binding or unenforceable
provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and
(ii) the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties
as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally
contemplated to the greatest extent possible. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which
any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period
shall be excluded, and if the last day of such period is a non-Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding
Business Day. Any words imparting the singular number only shall include the plural and vice versa. The words such as “herein,”

(d)            Governing
Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may
be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including
any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with
this Agreement), will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles
of conflicts of laws. Any action against any Party relating to the foregoing shall be brought in any federal or state court of
competent jurisdiction located within the State of Delaware, and the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of any federal or state court located within the State of Delaware over any such action. Each of the Parties agrees
(i) that this Agreement involves at least $100,000.00, and (ii) that this Agreement has been entered into by the Parties in express
reliance upon 6 Del. C. § 2708. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees (1) that it is and shall
continue to be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and of the federal courts sitting in the State
of Delaware, and (2)(A) to the extent that such Party is not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of Delaware,
to appoint and maintain an agent in the State of Delaware as such Party’s agent for acceptance of legal processes and notify
the other Parties of the name and address of such agent, and (B) to the fullest extent permitted by law, that service of process
may also be made on such Party by prepaid certified mail with a proof of mailing receipt validated by the U.S. Postal Service constituting
evidence of valid service, and that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, service made pursuant to (2)(A) or (B)
above shall have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such Party personally within the State of Delaware. Each of
the Parties hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter
have to the laying of venue of any such dispute brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance
of such dispute. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by
suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.


 


(e)            Waiver
of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES, AND AGREES TO CAUSE ITS AFFILIATES TO WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (i) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT
OR (ii) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR
ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT,
EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE
OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART
OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY.


 


(f)            No
Waiver; Modifications in Writing.


 


(i)          Delay.
No failure or delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof,
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies
that may be available to a Party at law or in equity or otherwise.


 




    	11



    	 



    

 


 


(ii)         Specific
Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment, waiver, consent, modification or termination of any provision of
this Agreement shall be effective unless signed by each of the Parties hereto. Any amendment, supplement or modification of or
to any provision of this Agreement, any waiver of any provision of this Agreement and any consent to any departure by a Party from
the terms of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for
which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on a Party in any case
shall entitle such Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any investigation by or on
behalf of any Party shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance with any representation,
warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein.


 


(g)          Execution
in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different Parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken
together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.


 


(h)          Binding
Effect; Assignment; Termination. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their
respective successors and permitted assigns, but, subject to Section 2(b), will not be assignable or delegable by any Party
hereto without the prior written consent of each of the other Parties. This Agreement shall terminate on the later of the Board
Rights Termination Date, the expiration of the Voting Period, and the Standstill Termination Date, except that the provisions of
Section 6 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and except that no party to this Agreement shall be relieved or
released from liability for damages arising out of a breach of this Agreement before such termination.


 


(i)          Independent
Counsel. Each of the Parties acknowledges that it has been represented by independent counsel of its choice throughout all
negotiations that have preceded the execution of this Agreement and that it has executed the same with consent and upon the advice
of said independent counsel. Each Party and its counsel cooperated in the drafting and preparation of this Agreement and the documents
referred to herein, and any and all drafts relating thereto will be deemed the work product of the Parties and may not be construed
against any Party by reason of its preparation. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation
of any ambiguities in this Agreement against the Party that drafted it is of no application and is hereby expressly waived.


 


(j)          Specific
Enforcement. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages would not adequately compensate an injured Party
for the breach of this Agreement by any Party, that this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable and that any breach or threatened
breach of this Agreement shall be the proper subject of a temporary or permanent injunction or restraining order without a requirement
of posting bond. Further, each Party hereto waives any claim or defense that there is an adequate remedy at law for such breach
or threatened breach.

(k)          Further
Assurances. Each of the Parties hereto shall, from time to time and without further consideration, execute such further instruments

to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


Pursuant to Section
1(b) of that certain Board Representation and Standstill Agreement, dated as of March [●], 2015 (the “Board Representation
and Standstill Agreement”), by and among Breitburn GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “General
Partner”), Breitburn Energy Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership” and, together
with the General Partner, the “Breitburn Entities”), and EIG Redwood Equity Aggregator, LP, a Delaware limited
partnership (the “Purchaser”), the Purchaser has exercised its right to appoint the undersigned as an [observer/alternate
to an observer] (the “Board Observer”) to the board of directors of the General Partner (the “Board”),
although the individual serving as the Board Observer may be changed from time to time pursuant to the terms of the Board Representation
and Standstill Agreement and upon such other new individual’s signing a confidentiality agreement in substantially the form
hereof. The Board Observer acknowledges that at the meetings of the Board and its committees and at other times, the Board Observer
may be provided with and otherwise have access to non-public information concerning the Breitburn Entities and their Affiliates.
Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein, shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Board Representation
and Standstill Agreement. In consideration for and as a condition to the Breitburn Entities furnishing access to such information,
the Board Observer hereby agrees to the terms and conditions set forth in this letter agreement (the “Agreement”):


 


1.          As
used in this Agreement, subject to Paragraph 3 below, “Confidential Information” means any and all non-public
financial or other non-public information concerning the Breitburn Entities and their Affiliates that may hereafter be disclosed
to the Board Observer by the Breitburn Entities, their Affiliates or by any of their directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants,
advisors or other representatives (including financial advisors, accountants or legal counsel) (the “Representatives”)
of the Breitburn Entities, including all notices, minutes, consents, materials, ideas or other information (to the extent constituting
information concerning the Breitburn Entities and their Affiliates that is non-public financial or other non-public information)
provided to the Board Observer.


 




    	Annex A-1



    	 



    

 


2.          Except
to the extent permitted by this Paragraph 2 or by Paragraph 3 or Paragraph 4 below, the Board Observer shall keep such Confidential
Information strictly confidential; provided, that the Board Observer may share Confidential Information with any
Series B Purchaser or such Series B Purchaser’s Affiliates and its and such Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees,
advisory committee members, investment committee members, limited partners, investors and legal counsel (the “Permitted
Recipients”) (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made shall be subject to the terms of that
Confidentiality Agreement between the Partnership and the Purchaser dated [●], 2015). The Board Observer may not record the
proceedings of any meeting of the Board by means of an electronic recording device.


 


3.          The
term “Confidential Information” does not include information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public
other than (a) as a result of a disclosure by the Board Observer in violation of this Agreement or (b) in violation of a confidentiality
obligation to the Breitburn Entities known to the Board Observer, (ii) is or becomes available to the Board Observer or the Purchaser
on a non-confidential basis from a source not known to have an obligation of confidentiality to the Breitburn Entities, (iii) was
already known to the Board Observer or the Purchaser at the time of disclosure, or (iv) is independently developed by the Board
Observer or the Purchaser without reference to any Confidential Information disclosed to the Board Observer.


 


4.          In
the event that the Board Observer is required or compelled by statute, rule, regulation, arbitral or judicial process or otherwise
requested by any governmental authority to disclose the Confidential Information, the Board Observer shall use reasonable best
efforts, to the extent permitted and practicable, to provide the Breitburn Entities with prompt prior written notice of such requirement
so that the Breitburn Entities may seek, at such entities sole expense and cost, an appropriate protective order. If in the absence
of a protective order, the Board Observer is nonetheless legally required or compelled to disclose Confidential Information, the
Board Observer may disclose only the portion of the Confidential Information or other information that it is so legally required
or compelled or requested to disclose.


 


5.          All
Confidential Information disclosed by the Breitburn Entities or their Representatives to the Board Observer is and will remain
the property of the Breitburn Entities, so long as such information remains Confidential Information.


 


6.          It
is understood and acknowledged that neither the Breitburn Entities nor any Representative makes any representation or warranty
as to the accuracy or completeness of the Confidential Information or any component thereof.


 


7.          It
is further understood and agreed that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by the Board
Observer and that the Breitburn Entities shall be entitled to seek specific performance or any other appropriate form of equitable
relief as a remedy for any such breach in addition to the remedies available to the Breitburn Entities at law.


 


8.          This
Agreement is personal to the Board Observer, is not assignable by the Board Observer and may be modified or waived only in writing.
This Agreement is binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and inures to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.


 




    	Annex A-2



    	 



    

 


9.          If
any provision of this Agreement is not enforceable in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be
affected thereby. No failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder operates as a waiver thereof, nor does
any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power
or privilege hereunder.


 


10.         THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY
CHOICE OR CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISION (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE APPLICATION
OF THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF DELAWARE. Each of the Parties agrees (i) that this Agreement involves
at least $100,000.00, and (ii) that this Agreement has been entered into by the Parties in express reliance upon 6 Del. C. §
2708. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees (1) that it is and shall continue to be subject to the
jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and of the federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware, and (2)(A) to the
extent that such Party is not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of Delaware, to appoint and maintain an agent
in the State of Delaware as such Party’s agent for acceptance of legal processes and notify the other Parties of the name
and address of such agent, and (B) to the fullest extent permitted by law, that service of process may also be made on such Party
by prepaid certified mail with a proof of mailing receipt validated by the U.S. Postal Service constituting evidence of valid service,
and that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, service made pursuant to (2)(A) or (B) above shall have the same legal
force and effect as if served upon such Party personally within the State of Delaware.


 


11.         This
Agreement and all obligations herein will automatically expire two (2) years after the date the Board Observer ceases to
act as Board Observer.


 


12.         This
Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement, and
all of which, when taken together, will constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of
signature pages by facsimile or electronic transmission constitutes effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the
parties and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement. Signatures of the parties transmitted by facsimile or electronic transmission
will be deemed to be their original signatures for any purpose whatsoever.

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT OF LIMITED

PARTNERSHIP OF BREITBURN ENERGY PARTNERS LP


 


THIS THIRD AMENDED AND
RESTATED AGREEMENT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP OF BREITBURN ENERGY PARTNERS LP dated as of April 8, 2015, is entered into by and among
Breitburn GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as the General Partner and as the lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for
the Limited Partners, together with any other Persons who become Partners in the Partnership or parties hereto as provided herein.
In consideration of the covenants, conditions and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:


 


Article
I

DEFINITIONS


 


Section 1.1           Definitions.
The following definitions shall be for all purposes, unless otherwise clearly indicated to the contrary, applied to the terms used
in this Agreement.


 


“Additional Book
Basis” means, with respect to any Adjusted Property, the portion of the Carrying Value of such Adjusted Property that
is attributable to positive adjustments made to such Carrying Value, as determined in accordance with the provisions set forth
below in this definition of Additional Book Basis. For purposes of determining the extent to which Carrying Value constitutes Additional
Book Basis:


 


(a)          Any
negative adjustment made to the Carrying Value of an Adjusted Property as a result of either a Book-Down Event or a Book-Up Event
shall first be deemed to offset or decrease that portion of the Carrying Value of such Adjusted Property that is attributable to
any prior positive adjustments made thereto pursuant to a Book-Up Event or Book-Down Event.


 


(b)          If
Carrying Value that constitutes Additional Book Basis is reduced as a result of a Book-Down Event (an “Additional Book
Basis Reduction”) and the Carrying Value of other property is increased as a result of such Book-Down Event (a “Carrying
Value Increase”), then any such Carrying Value Increase shall be treated as Additional Book Basis in an amount equal
to the lesser of (a) the amount of such Carrying Value Increase and (b) the amount determined by proportionately allocating
to the Carrying Value Increases resulting from such Book-Down Event the lesser of (i) the aggregate Additional Book Basis
Reductions resulting from such Book Down-Event and (ii) the amount by which the Aggregate Remaining Net Positive Adjustments
after such Book-Down Event exceeds the remaining Additional Book Basis attributable to all of the Partnership’s Adjusted
Property after such Book-Down Event (determined without regard to the application of this clause (ii) to such Book-Down Event).


 


“Additional Book
Basis Derivative Items” means any Book Basis Derivative Items that are computed with reference to Additional Book Basis.
To the extent that the Additional Book Basis attributable to all of the Partnership’s Adjusted Property as of the beginning
of any taxable period exceeds the Aggregate Remaining Net Positive Adjustments as of the beginning of such period (the “Excess
Additional Book Basis”), the Additional Book Basis Derivative Items for such period shall be reduced by the amount that
bears the same ratio to the amount of Additional Book Basis Derivative Items determined without regard to this sentence as the
Excess Additional Book Basis bears to the Additional Book Basis as of the beginning of such period.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


“Additional Limited
Partner” means a Person admitted to the Partnership as a Limited Partner pursuant to Section 10.3 and who is shown as
such on the books and records of the Partnership.


 


“Adjusted Capital
Account” means, with respect to any Partner, the balance in such Partner’s Capital Account at the end of each taxable
period of the Partnership, after giving effect to the following adjustments:


 


(a)          Credit
to such Capital Account any amounts that such Partner is (x) obligated to restore under the standards set by Treasury Regulation
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c) or (y) deemed obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Treasury Regulation
Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5); and


 


(b)          Debit
to such Capital Account the items described in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5) and
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6).


 


The foregoing definition
of Adjusted Capital Account is intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall
be interpreted consistently therewith. The “Adjusted Capital Account” of a Partner in respect of the General Partner
Interest, a Common Unit, a Series A Preferred Unit, a Series B Preferred Unit or any other Partnership Interest shall be the amount
that such Adjusted Capital Account would be if such General Partner Interest, Common Unit, Series A Preferred Unit, Series B Preferred
Unit or other Partnership Interest were the only interest in the Partnership held by such Partner from and after the date on which
such General Partner Interest, Common Unit, Series A Preferred Unit, Series B Preferred Unit or other Partnership Interest was
first issued.


 


“Adjusted Property”
means any property the Carrying Value of which has been adjusted pursuant to Section 5.2(d)(i) or 5.2(d)(ii).


 


“Affiliate”
means, with respect to any Person, any other Person that directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with, the Person in question. As used herein, the term “control” means the
possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether
through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, no Person shall be deemed an Affiliate
of the General Partner under this Agreement solely by virtue of such Person’s ownership of Partnership Securities. Without
conceding that any Person that acquired Series B Preferred Units on the Series B Original Issue Date is otherwise deemed an Affiliate
of the General Partner under this Agreement, in no event shall any Person that acquired Series B Preferred Units on the Series
B Original Issue Date be deemed an Affiliate of the General Partner for purposes of Sections 4.5(f), 7.5(d), 7.11, 7.12 and 15.1
of this Agreement.

Net Positive Adjustments” means, as of the end of any taxable period, the sum of the Remaining Net Positive Adjustments
of all the Partners.

(a)          If
any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Transfer Agent, the appropriate officers of the General Partner on behalf of the
Partnership shall execute, and the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver in exchange therefor, a new Certificate evidencing
the same number and type of Partnership Securities as the Certificate so surrendered.


 


(b)          The
appropriate officers of the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership shall execute and deliver, and the Transfer Agent shall
countersign, a new Certificate in place of any Certificate previously issued if the Record Holder of the Certificate:


 


(i)          makes
proof by affidavit, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, that a previously issued Certificate has been lost,
destroyed or stolen;


 


(ii)         requests
the issuance of a new Certificate before the General Partner has notice that the Certificate has been acquired by a purchaser for
value in good faith and without notice of an adverse claim;


 


(iii)        if
requested by the General Partner, delivers to the General Partner a bond, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner,
with surety or sureties and with fixed or open penalty as the General Partner may direct to indemnify the Partnership, the Partners,
the General Partner and the Transfer Agent against any claim that may be made on account of the alleged loss, destruction or theft
of the Certificate; and


 


(iv)        satisfies
any other reasonable requirements imposed by the General Partner.


 


If a Limited Partner or
Assignee fails to notify the General Partner within a reasonable period of time after he has notice of the loss, destruction or
theft of a Certificate, and a transfer of the Limited Partner Interests represented by the Certificate is registered before the
Partnership, the General Partner or the Transfer Agent receives such notification, the Limited Partner or Assignee shall be precluded
from making any claim against the Partnership, the General Partner or the Transfer Agent for such transfer or for a new Certificate.


 


(c)          As
a condition to the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 4.2, the General Partner may require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including
the fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent) reasonably connected therewith.

Section 4.3           Record
Holders. The Partnership shall be entitled to recognize the Record Holder as the Partner or Assignee with respect to any Partnership
Interest and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to, or interest in, such Partnership Interest
on the part of any other Person, regardless of whether the Partnership shall have actual or other notice thereof, except as otherwise
provided by law or any applicable rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of any National Securities Exchange on which such
Partnership Interests are listed or admitted to trading. Without limiting the foregoing, when a Person (such as a broker, dealer,
bank, trust company or clearing corporation or an agent of any of the foregoing) is acting as nominee, agent or in some other representative
capacity for another Person in acquiring and/or holding Partnership Interests, as between the Partnership on the one hand, and
such other Persons on the other, such representative Person (a) shall be the Partner or Assignee (as the case may be) of record
and beneficially, (b) must execute and deliver a Transfer Application and (c) shall be bound by this Agreement and shall
have the rights and obligations of a Partner or Assignee (as the case may be) hereunder and as, and to the extent, provided for
herein.


 


Section 4.4           Transfer
Generally.


 


(a)          The
term “transfer,” when used in this Agreement with respect to a Partnership Interest, shall be deemed to refer to a
transaction (i) by which the General Partner assigns its General Partner Interest to another Person, and includes a sale,
assignment, gift, pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation, mortgage, exchange or any other disposition by law or otherwise or (ii) by
which the holder of a Limited Partner Interest assigns such Limited Partner Interest to another Person who is or becomes a Limited
Partner or an Assignee, and includes a sale, assignment, gift, exchange or any other disposition by law or otherwise, including
any transfer upon foreclosure of any pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation or mortgage.


 


(b)          No
Partnership Interest shall be transferred, in whole or in part, except in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in
this Article IV. Any transfer or purported transfer of a Partnership Interest not made in accordance with this Article IV shall
be null and void.


 


(c)          Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent a disposition by any stockholder, member, partner or other owner of the
General Partner of any or all of the shares of stock, membership interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests
in the General Partner.


 


Section 4.5           Registration
and Transfer of Limited Partner Interests.


 


(a)          The
General Partner shall keep or cause to be kept on behalf of the Partnership a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations
as it may prescribe and subject to the provisions of Section 4.5(b), the Partnership will provide for the registration and transfer
of Limited Partner Interests. The Transfer Agent is hereby appointed registrar and transfer agent for the purpose of registering
Common Units, Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units and transfers of such Units as herein provided. The Partnership
shall not recognize transfers of Certificates evidencing Limited Partner Interests unless such transfers are effected in the manner
described in this Section 4.5. Upon surrender of a Certificate for registration of transfer of any Limited Partner Interests evidenced
by a Certificate, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.5(b), the appropriate officers of the General Partner on behalf of
the Partnership shall execute and deliver, and the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver, in the name of the holder or the
designated transferee or transferees, as required pursuant to the holder’s instructions, one or more new Certificates evidencing
the same aggregate number and type of Limited Partner Interests as was evidenced by the Certificate so surrendered.


 




    	30



    	 



    

 


(b)          Except
as otherwise provided in Section 4.8, the General Partner shall not recognize any transfer of Limited Partner Interests until the
Certificates evidencing such Limited Partner Interests are surrendered for registration of transfer and such Certificates are accompanied
by a Transfer Application properly completed and duly executed by the transferee (or the transferee’s attorney-in-fact duly
authorized in writing). No charge shall be imposed by the General Partner for such transfer; provided, that as a condition
to the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 4.5, the General Partner may require the payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed with respect thereto. No distributions or allocations will be
made in respect of the Limited Partner Interests until a properly completed Transfer Application has been delivered.


 


(c)          Limited
Partner Interests may be transferred only in the manner described in this Section 4.5. The transfer of any Limited Partner Interests
and the admission of any new Limited Partner shall not constitute an amendment to this Agreement.


 


(d)          Until
admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner pursuant to Section 10.1, the Record Holder of a Limited Partner Interest shall be an
Assignee in respect of such Limited Partner Interest. Limited Partners may include custodians, nominees or any other individual
or entity in its own or any representative capacity.


 


(e)          A
transferee of a Limited Partner Interest who has completed and delivered a Transfer Application shall be deemed to have (i) requested
admission as a Substituted Limited Partner, (ii) agreed to comply with and be bound by and to have executed this Agreement,
(iii) represented and warranted that such transferee has the right, power and authority and, if an individual, the capacity
to enter into this Agreement, (iv) granted the powers of attorney set forth in this Agreement and (v) given the consents
and approvals and made the waivers contained in this Agreement.


 


(f)          The
General Partner and its Affiliates shall have the right at any time to transfer their Common Units to one or more Persons.


 


Section 4.6           Transfer
of the General Partner’s General Partner Interest.


 


(a)          Subject
to Section 4.6(c) below, prior to December 31, 2016, the General Partner shall not transfer all or any part of its General
Partner Interest to a Person unless such transfer (i) has been approved by the prior written consent or vote of the holders
of at least a majority of the Outstanding Common Units (excluding Common Units held by the General Partner and its Affiliates)
or (ii) is of all, but not less than all, of its General Partner Interest to (A) an Affiliate of the General Partner
(other than an individual) or (B) another Person (other than an individual) in connection with the merger or consolidation
of the General Partner with or into such other Person or the transfer by the General Partner of all or substantially all of its
assets to such other Person.


 




    	31



    	 



    

 


(b)          Subject
to Section 4.6(c) below, on or after December 31, 2016, the General Partner may at its option transfer all or any of its General
Partner Interest without Unitholder approval.


 


(c)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, no transfer by the General Partner of all or any part of its General Partner Interest to another
Person shall be permitted unless (i) the transferee agrees to assume the rights and duties of the General Partner under this
Agreement and to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) the Partnership receives an Opinion of Counsel that such
transfer would not result in the loss of limited liability under Delaware law of any Limited Partner or cause the Partnership to
be treated as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise to be taxed as an entity for federal income tax purposes (to
the extent not already so treated or taxed) and (iii) such transferee also agrees to purchase all (or the appropriate portion
thereof, if applicable) of the partnership or membership interest of the General Partner as the general partner or managing member,
if any, of each other Group Member. In the case of a transfer pursuant to and in compliance with this Section 4.6, the transferee
or successor (as the case may be) shall, subject to compliance with the terms of Section 10.2, be admitted to the Partnership as
the General Partner immediately prior to the transfer of the General Partner Interest, and the business of the Partnership shall
continue without dissolution.


 


Section 4.7           Restrictions
on Transfers.


 


(a)          Except
as provided in Section 4.7(c) below, but notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article IV, no transfer of any Partnership
Interests shall be made if such transfer would (i) violate the then applicable federal or state securities laws or rules and
regulations of the Commission, any state securities commission or any other governmental authority with jurisdiction over such
transfer, (ii) terminate the existence or qualification of the Partnership under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation,
or (iii) cause the Partnership to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise to be taxed as an entity
for federal income tax purposes (to the extent not already so treated or taxed).


 


(b)          The
General Partner may impose restrictions on the transfer of Partnership Interests if it receives an Opinion of Counsel that such
restrictions are necessary to avoid a significant risk of the Partnership becoming taxable as a corporation or otherwise becoming
taxable as an entity for federal income tax purposes. The General Partner may impose such restrictions by amending this Agreement;
provided, however, that any amendment that would result in the delisting or suspension of trading of any class of
Limited Partner Interests on the principal National Securities Exchange on which such class of Limited Partner Interests is then
listed or admitted to trading must be approved, prior to such amendment being effected, by the holders of at least a majority of
the Outstanding Limited Partner Interests of such class.


 




    	32



    	 



    

 


(c)          Nothing
contained in this Article IV, or elsewhere in this Agreement, shall preclude the settlement of any transactions involving Partnership
Interests entered into through the facilities of any National Securities Exchange on which such Partnership Interests are listed
or admitted to trading.


 


(d)          Each
Certificate evidencing any Series A Preferred Units or any Series B Preferred Units shall bear a conspicuous legend in substantially
the form set forth in the penultimate paragraph of the form of Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit B or Exhibit C, respectively,
and each Certificate evidencing any other Partnership Interests shall bear a conspicuous legend in substantially the following
form:


 


THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY ACKNOWLEDGES
FOR THE BENEFIT OF BREITBURN ENERGY PARTNERS LP THAT THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED, RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED
IF SUCH TRANSFER WOULD (A) VIOLATE THE THEN APPLICABLE FEDERAL OR STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE SECURITIES
AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY WITH JURISDICTION OVER SUCH TRANSFER,
(B) TERMINATE THE EXISTENCE OR QUALIFICATION OF BREITBURN ENERGY PARTNERS LP UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, OR (C) CAUSE
BREITBURN ENERGY PARTNERS LP TO BE TREATED AS AN ASSOCIATION TAXABLE AS A CORPORATION OR OTHERWISE TO BE TAXED AS AN ENTITY FOR
FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES (TO THE EXTENT NOT ALREADY SO TREATED OR TAXED). BREITBURN GP LLC, THE GENERAL PARTNER OF BREITBURN
ENERGY PARTNERS LP, MAY IMPOSE ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON THE TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY IF IT RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL THAT
SUCH RESTRICTIONS ARE NECESSARY TO AVOID A SIGNIFICANT RISK OF BREITBURN ENERGY PARTNERS LP BECOMING TAXABLE AS A CORPORATION OR
OTHERWISE BECOMING TAXABLE AS AN ENTITY FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES. THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH ABOVE SHALL NOT PRECLUDE THE
SETTLEMENT OF ANY TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THIS SECURITY ENTERED INTO THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF ANY NATIONAL SECURITIES EXCHANGE
ON WHICH THIS SECURITY IS LISTED OR ADMITTED TO TRADING.


 


Section 4.8           Eligible
Holder Certifications; Non-Eligible Holders.


 


(a)          If
a transferee of a Limited Partner Interest fails to furnish a properly completed Eligible Holder Certification in a Transfer Application
or if, upon receipt of such Eligible Holder Certification or otherwise, the General Partner determines that such transferee is
not an Eligible Holder, the Limited Partner Interests owned by such transferee shall be subject to redemption in accordance with
the provisions of Section 4.9.


 




    	33



    	 



    

 


(b)          The
General Partner may request any Limited Partner or Assignee to furnish to the General Partner, within 30 days after receipt of
such request, an executed Eligible Holder Certification or such other information concerning his nationality, citizenship or other
related status (or, if the Limited Partner or Assignee is a nominee holding for the account of another Person (other than any Person
who directly or indirectly owns equity interests in a corporation incorporated under the laws of the United States or any State
or territory thereof, so long as that corporation (i) is qualified to hold federal leases under 30 U.S.C. 181 and 43 C.F.R. 3102.2
or its successor stature or rule and (ii) is the direct and indirect owner of such Limited Partner or Assignee), the nationality,
citizenship or other related status of such Person) as the General Partner may request. If a Limited Partner or Assignee fails
to furnish to the General Partner within the aforementioned 30-day period such Eligible Holder Certification or other requested
information or if upon receipt of such Eligible Holder Certification or other requested information the General Partner determines
that a Limited Partner or Assignee is not an Eligible Holder, the Limited Partner Interests owned by such Limited Partner or Assignee
shall be subject to redemption in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.9. In addition, the General Partner may require that
the status of any such Limited Partner or Assignee be changed to that of a Non-Eligible Holder and, thereupon, the General Partner
shall be substituted for such Non-Eligible Holder as the Limited Partner in respect of the Non-Eligible Holder’s Limited
Partner Interests.


 


(c)          The
General Partner shall, in exercising voting rights in respect of Limited Partner Interests held by it on behalf of Non-Eligible
Holders, distribute the votes in the same ratios as the votes of Partners (including the General Partner) in respect of Limited
Partner Interests other than those of Non-Eligible Holders are cast, either for, against or abstaining as to the matter.


 


(d)          Upon
dissolution of the Partnership, a Non-Eligible Holder shall have no right to receive a distribution in kind pursuant to Section
12.4 but shall be entitled to the cash equivalent thereof, and the Partnership shall provide cash in exchange for an assignment
of the Non-Eligible Holder’s share of any distribution in kind. Such payment and assignment shall be treated for Partnership
purposes as a purchase by the Partnership from the Non-Eligible Holder of its Limited Partner Interest (representing its right
to receive its share of such distribution in kind).


 


(e)          At
any time after a Non-Eligible Holder can and does certify that it has become an Eligible Holder, a Non-Eligible Holder may, upon
application to the General Partner, request admission as a Substituted Limited Partner with respect to any Limited Partner Interests
of such Non-Eligible Holder not redeemed pursuant to Section 4.9, and upon admission of such Non-Eligible Holder pursuant to Section
10.1, the General Partner shall cease to be deemed to be the Limited Partner in respect of the Non-Eligible Holder’s Limited
Partner Interests.


 


Section 4.9           Redemption
of Partnership Interests of Non-Eligible Holders.


 


(a)          If
at any time a Limited Partner or Assignee fails to furnish an Eligible Holder Certification or other information requested within
the 30-day period specified in Section 4.8(a), or if upon receipt of such Eligible Holder Certification or other information the
General Partner determines, with the advice of counsel, that a Limited Partner or Assignee is not an Eligible Holder, the Partnership
may, unless the Limited Partner or Assignee establishes to the satisfaction of the General Partner that such Limited Partner or
Assignee is an Eligible Holder or has transferred his Partnership Interests to a Person who is an Eligible Holder and who furnishes
an Eligible Holder Certification to the General Partner prior to the date fixed for redemption as provided below, redeem the Limited
Partner Interest of such Limited Partner or Assignee as follows:


 




    	34



    	 



    

 


(i)          The
General Partner shall, not later than the 30th day before the date fixed for redemption, give notice of redemption to the Limited
Partner or Assignee, at his last address designated on the records of the Partnership or the Transfer Agent, by registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid. The notice shall be deemed to have been given when so mailed. The notice shall specify the Redeemable Interests,
the date fixed for redemption, the place of payment, that payment of the redemption price will be made upon surrender of the Certificate
evidencing the Redeemable Interests and that on and after the date fixed for redemption no further allocations or distributions
to which the Limited Partner or Assignee would otherwise be entitled in respect of the Redeemable Interests will accrue or be made.


 


(ii)         The
aggregate redemption price for Redeemable Interests shall be an amount equal to the Current Market Price (the date of determination
of which shall be the date fixed for redemption) of Limited Partner Interests of the class to be so redeemed multiplied by the
number of Limited Partner Interests of each such class included among the Redeemable Interests. The redemption price shall be paid,
as determined by the General Partner, in cash or by delivery of a promissory note of the Partnership in the principal amount of
the redemption price, bearing interest at the rate of 10% annually and payable in three equal annual installments of principal
together with accrued interest, commencing one year after the redemption date.


 


(iii)        Upon
surrender by or on behalf of the Limited Partner or Assignee, at the place specified in the notice of redemption, of the Certificate
evidencing the Redeemable Interests, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by an assignment duly executed in blank, the Limited
Partner or Assignee or his duly authorized representative shall be entitled to receive the payment therefor.


 


(iv)        After
the redemption date, Redeemable Interests shall no longer constitute issued and Outstanding Limited Partner Interests.


 


(b)          The
provisions of this Section 4.9 shall also be applicable to Limited Partner Interests held by a Limited Partner or Assignee as nominee
of a Person determined to be other than an Eligible Holder.


 


(c)          Nothing
in this Section 4.9 shall prevent the recipient of a notice of redemption from transferring his Limited Partner Interest before
the redemption date if such transfer is otherwise permitted under this Agreement. Upon receipt of notice of such a transfer, the
General Partner shall withdraw the notice of redemption, provided the transferee of such Limited Partner Interest certifies to
the satisfaction of the General Partner in a Transfer Application that he is an Eligible Holder. If the transferee fails to make
such certification, such redemption shall be effected from the transferee on the original redemption date.

Article
V

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND ISSUANCE OF PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS


 


Section 5.1           Interest
and Withdrawal. No interest shall be paid by the Partnership on Capital Contributions. No Partner or Assignee shall be entitled
to the withdrawal or return of its Capital Contribution, except to the extent, if any, that distributions made pursuant to this
Agreement or upon termination of the Partnership may be considered as such by law and then only to the extent provided for in this
Agreement. Except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, no Partner or Assignee shall have priority over any other
Partner or Assignee either as to the return of Capital Contributions or as to profits, losses or distributions. Any such return
shall be a compromise to which all Partners and Assignees agree within the meaning of Section 17-502(b) of the Delaware Act.


 


Section 5.2           Capital
Accounts.


 


(a)          The
Partnership shall maintain for each Partner (or a beneficial owner of Partnership Interests held by a nominee in any case in which
the nominee has furnished the identity of such owner to the Partnership in accordance with Section 6031(c) of the Code or any other
method acceptable to the General Partner) owning a Partnership Interest a separate Capital Account with respect to such Partnership
Interest in accordance with the rules of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). Such Capital Account shall be increased
by (i) the amount of all Capital Contributions made by the Partner with respect to such Partnership Interest; provided
that the initial Capital Account of the initial holder of a Series A Preferred Unit or a Series B Preferred Unit with respect to
such Series A Preferred Unit or such Series B Preferred Unit, respectively, shall equal the Stated Series A Liquidation Preference
or the Stated Series B Liquidation Preference, respectively, irrespective of the amount paid by such holder for such Series A Preferred
Unit or such Series B Preferred Unit, respectively, (ii) all items of Partnership income and gain computed in accordance with
Section 5.2(b) and allocated with respect to such Partnership Interest pursuant to Section 6.1, and (iii) the portion of any
amount realized from the disposition of an oil and gas property that constitutes Simulated Gain allocated with respect to such
Partnership Interest in accordance with Section 6.1(e)(ii) and decreased by (x) the amount of cash or Net Agreed Value of
all actual and deemed distributions of cash or property made to the Partner with respect to such Partnership Interest pursuant
to this Agreement; provided that the Capital Account of a holder of Series A Preferred Units or Series B Preferred Units
shall not be reduced by the amount of Series A Distributions or Series B Distributions, respectively, it receives, (y) all
items of Partnership deduction and loss computed in accordance with Section 5.2(b) and allocated with respect to such Partnership
Interest pursuant to Section 6.1 and (z) Simulated Depletion and Simulated Loss in accordance with Section 6.1(e)(ii).


 


(b)          For
purposes of computing the amount of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction, Simulated Depletion, Simulated Gain or Simulated
Loss which is to be allocated pursuant to Article VI and is to be reflected in the Partners’ Capital Accounts, the determination,
recognition and classification of any such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for federal
income tax purposes (including any method of depreciation, cost recovery or amortization used for that purpose), provided, that:


 




    	36



    	 



    

 


(i)          Solely
for purposes of this Section 5.2, the Partnership shall be treated as owning directly its proportionate share (as determined by
the General Partner based upon the provisions of the applicable Group Member Agreement) of all property owned by any other Group
Member that is classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.


 


(ii)         All
fees and other expenses incurred by the Partnership to promote the sale of (or to sell) a Partnership Interest that can neither
be deducted nor amortized under Section 709 of the Code, if any, shall, for purposes of Capital Account maintenance, be treated
as an item of deduction at the time such fees and other expenses are incurred and shall be allocated among the Partners pursuant
to Section 6.1.


 


(iii)        The
computation of all items of income, gain, loss, deduction, Simulated Depletion, Simulated Gain and Simulated Loss shall be made
(x) except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), without regard to
any election under Section 754 of the Code which may be made by the Partnership, and (y) as to those items described in Section
705(a)(1)(B) or 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code, without regard to the fact that such items are not includable in gross income or are
neither currently deductible nor capitalized for federal income tax purposes.


 


(iv)        To
the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Section 734(b) of the Code (including pursuant
to Treasury Regulation Section 1.734-2(b)(1)) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be
taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment in the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an
item of gain or loss.


 


(v)         In
the event the Carrying Value of Partnership property is adjusted pursuant to Section 5.2(d), any Unrealized Gain resulting from
such adjustment shall be treated as an item of gain and any Unrealized Loss resulting from such adjustment shall be treated as
an item of loss


 


(vi)        Any
income, gain, loss, Simulated Gain or Simulated Loss attributable to the taxable disposition of any Partnership property shall
be determined as if the adjusted basis of such property as of such date of disposition were equal in amount to the Partnership’s
Carrying Value with respect to such property as of such date.


 


(vii)       Any
deductions for depreciation, amortization or other cost recovery attributable to any Contributed Property or Adjusted Property
shall be determined under the rules prescribed by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(d)(2) as if the adjusted basis of such property
were equal to the Carrying Value of such property immediately following such adjustment. Simulated Depletion will be computed in
accordance with the provisions of the definition of Simulated Depletion.


 


(viii)      The
Gross Liability Value of each liability of the Partnership described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-7(b)(3)(i) shall be adjusted
at such times as provided in this Agreement for an adjustment to Carrying Values. The amount of any such adjustment shall be treated
for purposes hereof as an item of loss (if the adjustment increases the Carrying Value of such liability of the Partnership) or
an item of gain (if the adjustment decreases the Carrying Value of such liability of the Partnership).


 




    	37



    	 



    

 


(c)          A
transferee of a Partnership Interest shall succeed to a pro rata portion of the Capital Account of the transferor relating to the
Partnership Interest so transferred.


 


(d)          (i) Consistent
with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) and 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(h)(2), on an issuance of additional Partnership Interests
for cash or Contributed Property, the issuance, exercise or conversion of a Noncompensatory Option (including the issuance or the
conversion of the Series A Preferred Units and the Series B Preferred Units in accordance with Section 16.4, Section 17.3(c), and
Section 17.6, respectively), the issuance of Partnership Interests as consideration for the provision of services, or the conversion
of the Combined Interest to Common Units pursuant to Section 11.3(b), the Carrying Value of each Partnership property immediately
prior to such issuance shall be adjusted upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such
Partnership property; provided, however, that in the event of the issuance of a Partnership Interest pursuant to
the exercise of a Noncompensatory Option where the right to share in Partnership capital represented by such Partnership Interest
differs from the consideration paid to acquire and exercise such option, the Carrying Value of each Partnership property immediately
after the issuance of such Partnership Interest shall be adjusted upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized
Loss attributable to such Partnership property and the Capital Accounts of the Partners shall be adjusted in a manner consistent
with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(s); provided further, however, that in the event of an issuance
of Partnership Interests for a de minimis amount of cash or Contributed Property, in the event of an issuance of a Noncompensatory
Option to acquire a de minimis Partnership Interest, or in the event of an issuance of a de minimis amount of Partnership Interests
as consideration for the provision of services, the General Partner may determine that such adjustments are unnecessary for the
proper administration of the Partnership. In determining such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss, the aggregate fair market value
of all Partnership property (including cash or cash equivalents) immediately prior to the issuance of additional Partnership Interests
(or, in the case of a Revaluation Event resulting from the exercise of a Noncompensatory Option, immediately after the issuance
of the Partnership Interest acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Noncompensatory Option) shall be determined by the General
Partner using such method of valuation as it may adopt. In making its determination of the fair market values of individual properties,
the General Partner may first determine an aggregate value for the assets of the Partnership that takes into account the current
trading price of the Common Units, the fair market value of all other Partnership Interests at such time and the amount of Partnership
liabilities. The General Partner may allocate such aggregate value among the individual properties of the Partnership (in such
manner as it determines appropriate). Absent a contrary determination by the General Partner, the aggregate fair market value of
all Partnership assets (including cash or cash equivalents) immediately prior to a Revaluation Event shall be the value that would
result in the Capital Account attributable to each Common Unit that is Outstanding prior to such Revaluation Event being equal
to the Event Issue Value. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Common Unit issued in connection with the conversion
of the Series B Preferred Units pursuant to Section 17.3(c), 17.4 or Section 17.6 shall have the same Capital Account as each other
Common Unit.


 




    	38



    	 



    

 


(ii)         In
accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), immediately prior to any distribution to a Partner of any Partnership
property (other than a distribution of cash that is not in redemption or retirement of a Partnership Interest), the Carrying Value
of all Partnership property shall be adjusted upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable
to such Partnership property. In determining such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss the aggregate fair market value of all Partnership
property (including cash or cash equivalents) immediately prior to a distribution shall (A) in the case of a distribution
other than one made pursuant to Section 12.4, be determined in the same manner as that provided in Section 5.2(d)(i) or (B) in
the case of a liquidating distribution pursuant to Section 12.4, be determined by the Liquidator using such method of valuation
as it may adopt.


 


Section 5.3           Issuances
of Additional Partnership Securities.


 


(a)          Subject
to any approvals required by Series A Holders pursuant to Section 16.5(b)(ii) or Series B Holders pursuant to Section 17.5,
the Partnership may issue additional Partnership Securities and options, rights, warrants and appreciation rights relating to the
Partnership Securities for any Partnership purpose at any time and from time to time to such Persons for such consideration and
on such terms and conditions as the General Partner shall determine, all without the approval of any Limited Partners.


 


(b)          Each
additional Partnership Security authorized to be issued by the Partnership pursuant to Section 5.3(a) may be issued in one or more
classes, or one or more series of any such classes, with such designations, preferences, rights, powers and duties (which may be
senior to existing classes and series of Partnership Securities), as shall be fixed by the General Partner, including (i) the
right to share in Partnership profits and losses or items thereof; (ii) the right to share in Partnership distributions; (iii) the
rights upon dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership; (iv) whether, and the terms and conditions upon which, the Partnership
may or shall be required to redeem the Partnership Security (including sinking fund provisions); (v) whether such Partnership
Security is issued with the privilege of conversion or exchange and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion or exchange;
(vi) the terms and conditions upon which each Partnership Security will be issued, evidenced by certificates and assigned
or transferred; (vii) the method for determining the Percentage Interest as to such Partnership Security; and (viii) the
right, if any, of each such Partnership Security to vote on Partnership matters, including matters relating to the relative rights,
preferences and privileges of such Partnership Security.


 


(c)          The
General Partner shall take all actions that it determines to be necessary or appropriate in connection with (i) each issuance
of Partnership Securities and options, rights, warrants and appreciation rights relating to Partnership Securities pursuant to
this Section 5.3, (ii) the conversion of the General Partner Interest into Units pursuant to the terms of this Agreement,
(iii) the admission of Additional Limited Partners and (iv) all additional issuances of Partnership Securities. The General
Partner shall determine the relative rights, powers and duties of the holders of the Units or other Partnership Securities being
so issued. The General Partner shall do all things necessary to comply with the Delaware Act and is authorized and directed to
do all things that it determines to be necessary or appropriate in connection with any future issuance of Partnership Securities
or in connection with the conversion of the General Partner Interest into Units pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including
compliance with any statute, rule, regulation or guideline of any federal, state or other governmental agency or any National Securities
Exchange on which the Units or other Partnership Securities are listed or admitted to trading.

(d)          The
Partnership shall not issue fractional Units upon any distribution, subdivision, combination or conversion of Units. If a distribution,
subdivision, combination or conversion of Units would result in the issuance of fractional Units but for the provisions of this
Section 5.3(d), except as otherwise provided in the definition of “Series B Distribution Rate” in Section 1.1 and except
as otherwise provided in Section 17.6(c), each fractional Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole Unit (and a 0.5 Unit shall
be rounded to the next higher Unit).


 


Section 5.4           Limited
Preemptive Right. No Person shall have any preemptive, preferential or other similar right with respect to the issuance of
any Partnership Security, whether unissued, held in the treasury or hereafter created.


 


Section 5.5           Splits
and Combinations.


 


(a)          Subject
to Section 5.3(d), the Partnership may make a Pro Rata distribution of Partnership Securities of any class to all Record Holders
of Partnership Securities of such class of Partnership Securities or may effect a subdivision or combination of the same class
of Partnership Securities so long as, after any such event, each Partner holding such class of Partnership Securities shall have
the same Percentage Interest in the Partnership as before such event, and any amounts calculated on a per Unit basis (including
those based on the Stated Series A Liquidation Preference and the Stated Series B Liquidation Preference) or stated as a number
of Units are proportionately adjusted.


 


(b)          Whenever
such a distribution, subdivision or combination of Partnership Securities is declared, the General Partner shall select a Record
Date as of which the distribution, subdivision or combination shall be effective and shall send notice thereof at least 20 days
prior to such Record Date to each Record Holder as of a date not less than 10 days prior to the date of such notice. The General
Partner also may cause a firm of independent public accountants selected by it to calculate the number of Partnership Securities
to be held by each Record Holder after giving effect to such distribution, subdivision or combination. The General Partner shall
be entitled to rely on any certificate provided by such firm as conclusive evidence of the accuracy of such calculation.


 


(c)          Promptly
following any such distribution, subdivision or combination, the Partnership may issue Certificates to the Record Holders of Partnership
Securities as of the applicable Record Date representing the new number of Partnership Securities held by such Record Holders,
or the General Partner may adopt such other procedures that it determines to be necessary or appropriate to reflect such changes.
If any such combination results in a smaller total number of Partnership Securities Outstanding, the Partnership shall require,
as a condition to the delivery to a Record Holder of such new Certificate, the surrender of any Certificate held by such Record
Holder immediately prior to such Record Date.


 


Section 5.6           Fully
Paid and Non-Assessable Nature of Limited Partner Interests. All Limited Partner Interests issued pursuant to, and in accordance
with the requirements of, this Article V, Article XVI or Article XVII shall be fully paid and non-assessable Limited Partner Interests
in the Partnership, except as such non-assessability may be affected by Section 17-607 of the Delaware Act.

Article
VI

ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS


 


Section 6.1           Allocations
for Capital Account Purposes. For purposes of maintaining the Capital Accounts and in determining the rights of the Partners
among themselves, the Partnership’s items of income, gain, loss, deduction, amount realized and Simulated Gain (computed
in accordance with Section 5.2(b)) shall be allocated among the Partners, and the Capital Accounts of the Partners shall be adjusted
for Simulated Depletion and Simulated Loss, in each taxable period (or portion thereof) as provided herein below.


 


(a)          Net
Income. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 6.1(d), and Capital Account adjustments pursuant
to Section 6.1(e)(ii), Net Income for each taxable period and all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and, to the extent provided
in Section 6.1(e)(iii), Simulated Gain taken into account in computing Net Income for such taxable period shall be allocated to
the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.


 


(b)          Net
Losses. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 6.1(d), and Capital Account adjustments pursuant
to Section 6.1(e)(ii), Net Losses for each taxable period and all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and, to the extent provided
in Section 6.1(e)(iii), Simulated Gain taken into account in computing Net Losses for such taxable period shall be allocated as
follows:


 


(i)          First,
Pro Rata to the Unitholders holding Common Units until the Adjusted Capital Account in respect of each Common Unit then outstanding
is equal to zero; provided that that Net Losses shall not be allocated pursuant to this Section 6.1(b)(i) to the extent
that such allocation would cause any Unitholder to have a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account at the end of such taxable
period (or increase any existing deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account), and provided, further, that to the extent
a pro rata allocation of Net Losses pursuant to this Section 6.1(b)(i) does not cause the Adjusted Capital Account in respect of
all Common Units then outstanding to equal zero at the same time, any remaining Net Losses will be allocated to the Unitholders
holding such Common Units to the extent of, and in proportion to, the excess of (x) the Adjusted Capital Account in respect
of each such Common Unit (as determined after giving effect to the previous provisions of this Section 6.1(b)(i)), over (y) zero;
and


 


(ii)         Second,
to all Unitholders holding Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units, Pro Rata, until the Adjusted Capital Account
in respect of each Series A Preferred Unit and each Series B Preferred Unit then Outstanding has been reduced to zero.


 


(c)          Net
Termination Gains and Losses. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 6.1(d), all items of income,
gain, loss, deduction, Simulated Depletion, Simulated Gain and Simulated Loss taken into account in computing Net Termination Gain
or Net Termination Loss for such taxable period shall be allocated in the same manner as such Net Termination Gain or Net Termination
Loss is allocated hereunder. All allocations under this Section 6.1(c) shall be made after Capital Account balances have been adjusted
by all other allocations provided under this Section 6.1 and after all distributions of Available Cash provided under Section 6.3
have been made; provided, however, that solely for purposes of this Section 6.1(c), Capital Accounts shall not be
adjusted for distributions made pursuant to Section 12.4.


 




    	41



    	 



    

 


(i)          If
a Net Termination Gain is recognized (or deemed recognized pursuant to Section 5.2(d)), such Net Termination Gain shall be allocated
among the Partners in the following manner (and the Capital Accounts of the Partners shall be increased by the amount so allocated
in each of the following subclauses, in the order listed, before an allocation is made pursuant to the next succeeding subclause):


 


(A)         First,
to each Partner having a deficit balance in its Capital Account, in the proportion that such deficit balance bears to the total
deficit balances in the Capital Accounts of all Partners, until each such Partner has been allocated Net Termination Gain equal
to any such deficit balance in its Capital Account; and


 


(B)         Second,
100% to all Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests.


 


(ii)         If
a Net Termination Loss is recognized (or deemed recognized pursuant to Section 5.2(d)), such Net Termination Loss shall be allocated
among the Partners in the following manner:


 


(A)         First,
100% to all Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests, until the Capital Account in respect of each Common Unit then
Outstanding has been reduced to zero;


 


(B)         Second,
to all Unitholders holding Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units, Pro Rata, until the Capital Account in respect
of each Series A Preferred Unit and each Series B Preferred Unit has been reduced to zero; and


 


(C)         Third,
the balance, if any, 100% to the General Partner.


 


(d)          Special
Allocations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.1, the following special allocations shall be made for such
taxable period:


 


(i)          Partnership
Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.1, if there is a net decrease in Partnership
Minimum Gain during any Partnership taxable period, each Partner shall be allocated items of Partnership income, gain and Simulated
Gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulation Sections
1.704-2(f)(6), 1.704-2(g)(2) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(i), or any successor provision. For purposes of this Section 6.1(d), each Partner’s
Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income, gain and Simulated Gain required hereunder
shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 6.1(d) with respect to such taxable
period (other than an allocation pursuant to Sections 6.1(d)(v) and 6.1(d)(vi)). This Section 6.1(d)(i) is intended to comply with
the Partnership Minimum Gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently
therewith.


 




    	42



    	 



    

 


(ii)         Chargeback
of Partner Non-Recourse Debt Minimum Gain. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 6.1 (other than Section 6.1(d)(i)),
except as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Partner Non-Recourse Debt Minimum
Gain during any Partnership taxable period, any Partner with a share of Partner Non-Recourse Debt Minimum Gain at the beginning
of such taxable period shall be allocated items of Partnership income, gain and Simulated Gain for such period (and, if necessary,
subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(ii), or
any successor provision. For purposes of this Section 6.1(d), each Partner’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined,
and the allocation of income, gain and Simulated Gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other
allocations pursuant to this Section 6.1(d), other than Section 6.1(d)(i) and other than an allocation pursuant to Sections 6.1(d)(v)
and 6.1(d)(vi), with respect to such taxable period. This Section 6.1(d)(ii) is intended to comply with the chargeback of items
of income and gain requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.


 


(iii)        Qualified
Income Offset. In the event any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury
Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Partnership income,
gain and Simulated Gain shall be specially allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent
required by the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the deficit balance, if any, in its Adjusted
Capital Account created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible unless such deficit balance is
otherwise eliminated pursuant to Sections 6.1(d)(i) or 6.1(d)(ii).


 


(iv)        Gross
Income Allocations. In the event any Partner has a deficit balance in its Capital Account at the end of any Partnership taxable
period in excess of the sum of (A) the amount such Partner is required to restore pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement
and (B) the amount such Partner is deemed obligated to restore pursuant to Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5),
such Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income, gain and Simulated Gain in the amount of such excess as
quickly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.1(d)(iv) shall be made only if and to the extent
that such Partner would have a deficit balance in its Capital Account as adjusted after all other allocations provided for in this
Section 6.1 have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.1(d)(iv) were not in this Agreement.


 




    	43



    	 



    

 


(v)         Non-Recourse
Deductions. Non-Recourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their respective
Percentage Interests. If the General Partner determines that the Partnership’s Non-Recourse Deductions should be allocated
in a different ratio to satisfy the safe harbor requirements of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the
Code, the General Partner is authorized, upon notice to the other Partners, to revise the prescribed ratio to the numerically closest
ratio that does satisfy such requirements.


 


(vi)        Partner
Non-Recourse Deductions. Partner Non-Recourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated 100% to the Partner that
bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to the Partner Non-Recourse Debt to which such Partner Non-Recourse Deductions are
attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i). If more than one Partner bears the Economic Risk of Loss
with respect to a Partner Non-Recourse Debt, such Partner Non-Recourse Deductions attributable thereto shall be allocated between
or among such Partners in accordance with the ratios in which they share such Economic Risk of Loss.


 


(vii)       Non-Recourse
Liabilities. For purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Partners agree that Non-Recourse Liabilities of
the Partnership in excess of the sum of (A) the amount of Partnership Minimum Gain and (B) the total amount of Non-Recourse
Built-in Gain shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.


 


(viii)      Code
Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Section
734(b) of the Code (including pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.734-2(b)(1)) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulation
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital
Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain or Simulated Gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss or
Simulated Loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such item of gain, loss, Simulated Gain or Simulated Loss shall be
specially allocated to the Partners in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted
pursuant to such Section of the Treasury Regulations.


 


(ix)         Series
A Preferred Unit and Series B Preferred Unit Allocations.


 


(A)         Income
of the Partnership attributable to the issuance by the Partnership of a Series A Preferred Unit or a Series B Preferred Unit for
an amount in excess of the Stated Series A Liquidation Preference or the Stated Series B Liquidation Preference, respectively,
shall be allocated to the holders of Common Units in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.


 


(B)         Net
Termination Gain, if any, for the taxable period (or, to the extent necessary, items of income or gain for the taxable period)
shall be allocated to each holder of Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units, in proportion to, and to the extent
of, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the Stated Series A Liquidation Preference with respect to such holder’s
Series A Preferred Units and the Stated Series B Liquidation Preference with respect to such holder’s Series B Preferred
Units, over (y) such holder’s existing Capital Account balance in respect of its Series A Preferred Units or its Series
B Preferred Units, respectively, until the Capital Account balance of each such holder in respect of its Series A Preferred Units
or Series B Preferred Units is equal to the Stated Series A Liquidation Preference or the Stated Series B Liquidation Preference,
respectively, in respect of such Series A Preferred Units or Series B Preferred Units.




 






    	44



    	 



    







 


(C)         Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 6.1 (other than the Required Allocations), if (A) the Liquidation Date occurs prior to the
conversion of the last Outstanding Series B Preferred Unit and (B) after having made all other allocations provided for in this
Section 6.1 for the taxable period in which the Liquidation Date occurs, the Capital Account balance of each holder of Series B
Preferred Units in respect of its Series B Preferred Units does not equal the greater of (x) the Stated Series B Liquidation
Preference for such Series B Preferred Units and (y) the Capital Account balance such holder would have in respect of its
Series B Preferred Units if such Series B Preferred Units were fully converted into Common Units (the greater of the amounts described
in clauses (x) and (y) being the “Series B Liquidation Amount”), then items of income, gain, loss and deduction
for such taxable period shall be reallocated among the holders of Common Units and Series B Preferred Units in a manner determined
appropriate by the General Partner so as to cause, to the maximum extent possible, the Capital Account of each holder of Series
B Preferred Units in respect of its Series B Preferred Units to equal the Series B Liquidation Amount. In the event that (1) the
Liquidation Date occurs on or before the date (not including any extension of time prescribed by law) for the filing of the Partnership’s
federal income tax return for the taxable period immediately prior to the taxable period in which the Liquidation Date occurs and
(2) the reallocation of items for the taxable period in which the Liquidation Date occurs as set forth above in this Section 6.1(d)(ix)(C)
fails to achieve the Capital Account balances described above, items of income, gain, loss and deduction that would otherwise be
included in the Net Income or Net Loss, as the case may be, for such prior taxable period shall be reallocated among the holders
of Common Units and Series B Preferred Units in a manner that will, to the maximum extent possible and after taking into account
all other allocations made pursuant to this Section 6.1(d)(ix)(C), cause the Capital Account of each holder of Series B Preferred
Units in respect of its Series B Preferred Units to equal the Series B Liquidation Amount.


 




    	45



    	 



    

 


(x)          Curative
Allocation.


 


(A)         Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 6.1, other than the Required Allocations, the Required Allocations shall be taken into account
in making the Agreed Allocations so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of items of income, gain, loss, deduction, Simulated
Depletion, Simulated Gain and Simulated Loss allocated to each Partner pursuant to the Required Allocations and the Agreed Allocations,
together, shall be equal to the net amount of such items that would have been allocated to each such Partner under the Agreed Allocations
had the Required Allocations and the related Curative Allocation not otherwise been provided in this Section 6.1. Notwithstanding
the preceding sentence, Required Allocations relating to (1) Non-Recourse Deductions shall not be taken into account except
to the extent that there has been a decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain and (2) Partner Non-Recourse Deductions shall not
be taken into account except to the extent that there has been a decrease in Partner Non-Recourse Debt Minimum Gain. Allocations
pursuant to this Section 6.1(d)(x)(A) shall only be made with respect to Required Allocations to the extent the General Partner
determines that such allocations will otherwise be inconsistent with the economic agreement among the Partners. Further, allocations
pursuant to this Section 6.1(d)(x)(A) shall be deferred with respect to allocations pursuant to clauses (1) and (2) hereof
to the extent the General Partner determines that such allocations are likely to be offset by subsequent Required Allocations.


 


(B)         The
General Partner shall, with respect to each taxable period, (1) apply the provisions of Section 6.1(d)(x)(A) in whatever order
is most likely to minimize the economic distortions that might otherwise result from the Required Allocations, and (2) divide
all allocations pursuant to Section 6.1(d)(x)(A) among the Partners in a manner that is likely to minimize such economic distortions.


 


(xi)         Equalization
of Capital Accounts With Respect to Privately Placed Units. Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss deemed recognized as a result
of a Revaluation Event shall first be allocated to the (A) Unitholders holding Privately Placed Units, Pro Rata, or (B) Unitholders
holding Common Units (other than Privately Place Units), Pro Rata, as applicable, to the extent necessary to cause the Capital
Account in respect of each Privately Placed Unit then Outstanding to equal the Capital Account in respect of each Common Unit (other
than Privately Placed Units) then Outstanding.


 


(xii)        Corrective
Allocations. In the event of any allocation of Additional Book Basis Derivative Items or any Book-Down Event or any recognition
of a Net Termination Loss, the following rules shall apply:


 


(A)         In
the case of any negative adjustments to the Capital Accounts of the Partners resulting from a Book-Down Event or from the recognition
of a Net Termination Loss, such negative adjustment (1) shall first be allocated, to the extent of the Aggregate Remaining
Net Positive Adjustments, in such a manner, as determined by the General Partner, that to the extent possible the aggregate Capital
Accounts of the Partners will equal the amount that would have been the Capital Account balance of the Partners if no prior Book-Up
Events had occurred, and (2) any negative adjustment in excess of the Aggregate Remaining Net Positive Adjustments shall be
allocated pursuant to Section 6.1(c) hereof.


 


(B)         In
making the allocations required under this Section 6.1(d)(xii), the General Partner may apply whatever conventions or other methodology
it determines will satisfy the purpose of this Section 6.1(d)(xii).


 




    	46



    	 



    

 


(e)          Simulated
Basis; Simulated Depletion and Simulated Loss; Simulated Gain; Amount Realized.


 


(i)          Simulated
Basis. For purposes of determining and maintaining the Partners’ Capital Accounts, (i) the initial Simulated Basis
of each oil and gas property (as defined in Section 614 of the Code) of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partners,
Pro Rata and (ii) if the Carrying Value of an oil and gas property is adjusted pursuant to Section 5.2(d), the Simulated Basis
of such property (as adjusted to reflect the adjustment to the Carrying Value of such property), shall be allocated to the Partners,
Pro Rata.


 


(ii)         Simulated
Depletion and Simulated Loss. For purposes of applying clause (z) of the second sentence of Section 5.2(a), Simulated
Depletion and Simulated Loss with respect to each oil and gas property of the Partnership shall reduce each Partner’s Capital
Account in proportion to the manner in which the Simulated Basis of such property is allocated among the Partners pursuant to of
Section 6.1(e)(i).


 


(iii)        Simulated
Gain. For purposes of applying clause (iii) of the second sentence of Section 5.2(a), Simulated Gain for any taxable period
will be treated as included in Net Income or Net Loss and allocated pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) or 6.1(b), as applicable.


 


(iv)        Amount
Realized. For purposes of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(k)(2) and 1.704-1(b)(4)(iii), the amount realized
on the disposition of any oil and gas property of the Partnership shall be allocated (i) first to the Partners in an amount
equal to the remaining Simulated Basis of such property in the same proportions as the Simulated Basis of such property was allocated
among the Partners pursuant to Section 6.1(e)(i), and (ii) any remaining amount realized shall be allocated to the Partners
in the same ratio as Simulated Gain from the disposition of such oil and gas property is allocated pursuant to Sections 6.1(a)
or 6.1(b), as applicable.


 


Section 6.2           Allocations
for Tax Purposes.


 


(a)          Except
as otherwise provided herein, for federal income tax purposes, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated
among the Partners in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated
pursuant to Section 6.1.


 


(b)          The
deduction for depletion with respect to each separate oil and gas property (as defined in Section 614 of the Code) shall be computed
for federal income tax purposes separately by the Partners rather than by the Partnership in accordance with Section 613A(c)(7)(D)
of the Code. Except as provided in Section 6.2(c), for purposes of such computation (before taking into account any adjustments
resulting from an election made by the Partnership under Section 754 of the Code), the adjusted tax basis of each oil and gas property
(as defined in Section 614 of the Code) that is (i) a Contributed Property shall initially be allocated among the non-contributing
Partners, Pro Rata, but not in excess of any such Partner’s share of Simulated Basis as determined pursuant to Section 6.1(e)(i),
and (ii) not a Contributed Property or an Adjusted Property shall initially be allocated to the Partners in proportion to
each such Partner’s share of Simulated Basis as determined pursuant to Section 6.1(e)(i). If there is an event described
in Section 5.2(d), the General Partner shall reallocate the adjusted tax basis of each oil and gas property in a manner (i) consistent
with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code and (ii) that maintains the federal income tax fungibility of the Units.


 




    	47



    	 



    

 


Each Partner shall separately
keep records of his share of the adjusted tax basis in each oil and gas property, allocated as provided above, adjust such share
of the adjusted tax basis for any cost or percentage depletion allowable with respect to such property, and use such adjusted tax
basis in the computation of its cost depletion or in the computation of his gain or loss on the disposition of such property by
the Partnership.


 


(c)          In
an attempt to eliminate Book-Tax Disparities attributable to a Contributed Property or Adjusted Property, items of income, gain,
loss, depreciation, amortization and cost recovery deductions shall be allocated for U.S. federal income tax purposes among the
Partners in the manner provided under Section 704(c) of the Code, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b)
and 704(c) of the Code, as determined appropriate by the General Partner; provided that in all events the General Partner
shall apply the “remedial allocation method” in accordance with the principles of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(d).
For purposes of applying the “remedial allocation method” to oil and gas properties (i) the amount by which any
Partner’s Capital Account is adjusted for Simulated Depletion shall be treated as an amount of book depletion allocated to
such Partner and (ii) the amount of cost depletion computed by such Partner under Section 613A(c)(7)(D) of the Code shall
be treated as an amount of tax depletion allocated to such Partner.


 


(d)          For
the proper administration of the Partnership and for the preservation of uniformity of the Limited Partner Interests (or any class
or classes thereof), the General Partner shall (i) adopt such conventions as it deems appropriate in determining the amount
of depreciation, amortization and cost recovery deductions; (ii) make special allocations for federal income tax purposes
of income (including gross income) or deductions; and (iii) amend the provisions of this Agreement as appropriate (x) to
reflect the proposal or promulgation of Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) or Section 704(c) of the Code or (y) otherwise
to preserve or achieve uniformity of the Limited Partner Interests (or any class or classes thereof). The General Partner may adopt
such conventions, make such allocations and make such amendments to this Agreement as provided in this Section 6.2(d) only if such
conventions, allocations or amendments would not have a material adverse effect on the Partners, the holders of any class or classes
of Limited Partner Interests issued and Outstanding or the Partnership, and if such allocations are consistent with the principles
of Section 704 of the Code.


 


(e)          The
General Partner may determine to depreciate or amortize the portion of an adjustment under Section 743(b) of the Code attributable
to unrealized appreciation in any Adjusted Property (to the extent of the unamortized Book-Tax Disparity) using a predetermined
rate derived from the depreciation or amortization method and useful life applied to the Partnership’s common basis of such
property, despite any inconsistency of such approach with Treasury Regulation Section 1.167(c)-l(a)(6), Treasury Regulation Section
1.197-2(g)(3), the legislative history of Section 743 of the Code or any successor regulations thereto. If the General Partner
determines that such reporting position cannot reasonably be taken, the General Partner may adopt depreciation and amortization
conventions under which all purchasers acquiring Limited Partner Interests in the same month would receive depreciation and amortization
deductions, based upon the same applicable rate as if they had purchased a direct interest in the Partnership’s property.
If the General Partner chooses not to utilize such aggregate method, the General Partner may use any other depreciation and amortization
conventions to preserve the uniformity of the intrinsic tax characteristics of any Limited Partner Interests, so long as such conventions
would not have a material adverse effect on the Limited Partners or the Record Holders of any class or classes of Limited Partner
Interests.

(f)          Any
gain allocated to the Partners upon the sale or other taxable disposition of any Partnership asset shall, to the extent possible,
after taking into account other required allocations of gain pursuant to this Section 6.2, be characterized as Recapture Income
in the same proportions and to the same extent as such Partners (or their predecessors in interest) have been allocated any deductions
directly or indirectly giving rise to the treatment of such gains as Recapture Income.


 


(g)          All
items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit recognized by the Partnership for federal income tax purposes and allocated to
the Partners in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be determined without regard to any election under Section 754 of the
Code that may be made by the Partnership; provided, however, that such allocations, once made, shall be adjusted
(in the manner determined by the General Partner) to take into account those adjustments permitted or required by Sections 734
and 743 of the Code.


 


(h)          Each
item of Partnership income, gain, loss and deduction, for federal income tax purposes, shall be determined on an annual basis and
prorated on a monthly basis and shall be allocated to the Partners as of the opening of the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the
first Business Day of each month; provided, however, that gain or loss on a sale or other disposition of any assets
of the Partnership or any other extraordinary item of income or loss realized and recognized other than in the ordinary course
of business, as determined by the General Partner, shall be allocated to the Partners as of the opening of the NASDAQ Global Select
Market on the first Business Day of the month in which such gain or loss is recognized for federal income tax purposes. The General
Partner may revise, alter or otherwise modify such methods of allocation to the extent permitted or required by Section 706 of
the Code and the regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder.


 


(i)          Allocations
that would otherwise be made to a Limited Partner under the provisions of this Article VI shall instead be made to the beneficial
owner of Limited Partner Interests held by a nominee in any case in which the nominee has furnished the identity of such owner
to the Partnership in accordance with Section 6031(c) of the Code or any other method determined by the General Partner.


 


(j)          If,
as a result of an exercise of a Noncompensatory Option, a Capital Account reallocation is required under Treasury Regulation Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(s)(3), the General Partner shall make corrective allocations pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(x).

Section 6.3           Requirement
and Characterization of Distributions; Distributions to Record Holders.


 


(a)          Except
as described in Section 6.3(b) and subject to Section 16.3 and Section 17.3 of this Agreement, following the end of each Quarter,
an amount equal to 100% of Available Cash with respect to such Quarter shall, subject to Section 17-607 of the Delaware Act, be
distributed in accordance with this Article VI by the Partnership to the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage
Interests as of the Record Date selected by the General Partner. Such distribution with respect to any Quarter may be made, at
the discretion of the General Partner, (i) within 45 days following the end of each Quarter or (ii) in three equal installments
within 17, 45 and 75 days following the end of each Quarter. All distributions required to be made under this Agreement shall be
made subject to Section 17-607 of the Delaware Act.


 


(b)          The
General Partner may treat taxes paid by the Partnership on behalf of, or amounts withheld with respect to, all or less than all
of the Partners, as a distribution of Available Cash to such Partners.


 


(c)          Each
distribution in respect of a Partnership Interest shall be paid by the Partnership, directly or through the Transfer Agent or through
any other Person or agent, only to the Record Holder of such Partnership Interest as of the Record Date set for such distribution.
Such payment shall constitute full payment and satisfaction of the Partnership’s liability in respect of such payment, regardless
of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such payment by reason of an assignment or otherwise.

described in or contemplated by the Registration Statement on behalf of the Partnership without any further act, approval or vote
of the Partners or the Assignees or the other Persons who may acquire an interest in Partnership Securities; and (iii) agrees
that the execution, delivery or performance by the General Partner, any Group Member or any Affiliate of any of them of this Agreement
or any agreement authorized or permitted under this Agreement (including the exercise by the General Partner or any Affiliate of
the General Partner of the rights accorded pursuant to Article XV) shall not constitute a breach by the General Partner of any
duty that the General Partner may owe the Partnership or the Limited Partners or any other Persons under this Agreement (or any
other agreements) or of any duty stated or implied by law or equity.


 


Section 7.2           Certificate
of Limited Partnership.   The General Partner has caused the Certificate of Limited Partnership to be filed with the Secretary
of State of the State of Delaware as required by the Delaware Act. The General Partner shall use all reasonable efforts to cause

continuation, qualification and operation of a limited partnership (or a partnership in which the limited partners have limited
liability) in the State of Delaware or any other state in which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property. To the
extent the General Partner determines such action to be necessary or appropriate, the General Partner shall file amendments to
and restatements of the Certificate of Limited Partnership and do all things to maintain the Partnership as a limited partnership
(or a partnership or other entity in which the limited partners have limited liability) under the laws of the State of Delaware
or of any other state in which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property. Subject to the terms of Section 3.4(a),

Section 7.3           Restrictions
on the General Partner’s Authority.


 


(a)          Except
as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the General Partner may not, without written approval of the specific act by holders of
all of the Outstanding Limited Partner Interests or by other written instrument executed and delivered by holders of all of the
Outstanding Limited Partner Interests subsequent to the date of this Agreement, take any action in contravention of this Agreement.


 


(b)          Except
as provided in Articles XII and XIV, the General Partner may not sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all
of the assets of the Partnership Group, taken as a whole, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions (including
by way of merger, consolidation, other combination or sale of ownership interests of the Partnership’s Subsidiaries) without
the approval of holders of a Unit Majority; provided, however, that this provision shall not preclude or limit the
General Partner’s ability to mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in all or substantially all of the
assets of the Partnership Group and shall not apply to any forced sale of any or all of the assets of the Partnership Group pursuant
to the foreclosure of, or other realization upon, any such encumbrance. Without the approval of holders of a Unit Majority, the
General Partner shall not, on behalf of the Partnership, except as permitted under Sections 4.6, 11.1 and 11.2, elect or cause
the Partnership to elect a successor general partner of the Partnership.


 


Section 7.4           Reimbursement
of the General Partner.


 


(a)          Except
as provided in this Section 7.4 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the General Partner shall not be compensated for its services
as a general partner or managing member of any Group Member.


 


(b)          The
General Partner shall be reimbursed on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the General Partner may determine, for (i) all
direct and indirect expenses it incurs or payments it makes on behalf of the Partnership Group (including salary, bonus, incentive
compensation and other amounts paid to any Person, including Affiliates of the General Partner to perform services for the Partnership
Group or for the General Partner in the discharge of its duties to the Partnership Group), and (ii) all other expenses allocable
to the Partnership Group or otherwise incurred by the General Partner in connection with operating the Partnership Group’s
business (including expenses allocated to the General Partner by its Affiliates). The General Partner shall determine the expenses
that are allocable to the Partnership Group. Reimbursements pursuant to this Section 7.4 shall be in addition to any reimbursement
to the General Partner as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7.


 




    	53



    	 



    

 


(c)          The
General Partner, without the approval of the Limited Partners (who shall have no right to vote in respect thereof), may propose
and adopt on behalf of the Partnership employee benefit plans, employee programs and employee practices (including plans, programs
and practices involving the issuance of Partnership Securities or options to purchase or rights, warrants or appreciation rights
relating to Partnership Securities), or cause the Partnership to issue Partnership Securities in connection with, or pursuant to,
any employee benefit plan, employee program or employee practice maintained or sponsored by the General Partner or any of its Affiliates,
in each case for the benefit of employees of the General Partner or its Affiliates, or any Group Member or its Affiliates, or any
of them, in respect of services performed, directly or indirectly, for the benefit of the Partnership Group. The Partnership agrees
to issue and sell to the General Partner or any of its Affiliates any Partnership Securities that the General Partner or such Affiliates
are obligated to provide to any employees pursuant to any such employee benefit plans, employee programs or employee practices.
Expenses incurred by the General Partner in connection with any such plans, programs and practices (including the net cost to the
General Partner or such Affiliates of Partnership Securities purchased by the General Partner or such Affiliates from the Partnership
to fulfill options or awards under such plans, programs and practices) shall be reimbursed in accordance with Section 7.4(b). Any
and all obligations of the General Partner under any employee benefit plans, employee programs or employee practices adopted by
the General Partner as permitted by this Section 7.4(c) shall constitute obligations of the General Partner hereunder and shall
be assumed by any successor General Partner approved pursuant to Section 11.1 or 11.2 or the transferee of or successor to all
of the General Partner’s General Partner Interest pursuant to Section 4.6.


 


Section 7.5           Outside
Activities.


 


(a)          The
General Partner, for so long as it is the General Partner of the Partnership (i) agrees that its sole business will be to
act as a general partner or managing member, as the case may be, of the Partnership and any other partnership or limited liability
company of which the Partnership is, directly or indirectly, a partner or member and to undertake activities that are ancillary
or related thereto (including being a limited partner in the Partnership) and (ii) shall not engage in any business or activity
or incur any debts or liabilities except in connection with or incidental to (A) its performance as general partner or managing
member, if any, of one or more Group Members or as described in or contemplated by the Registration Statement or (B) the acquiring,
owning or disposing of debt or equity securities in any Group Member.


 


(b)          Subject
to the terms of Section 7.5(a) and the Omnibus Agreement, each Indemnitee (other than the General Partner) shall have the right
to engage in businesses of every type and description and other activities for profit and to engage in and possess an interest
in other business ventures of any and every type or description, whether in businesses engaged in or anticipated to be engaged
in by any Group Member, independently or with others, including business interests and activities in direct competition with the
business and activities of any Group Member, and none of the same shall constitute a breach of this Agreement or any duty expressed
or implied by law to any Group Member or any Partner or Assignee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) the
engaging in competitive activities by any Indemnitees (other than the General Partner) in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 7.5 and the Omnibus Agreement is hereby approved by the Partnership and all Partners and (ii) it shall be deemed not
to be breach of any fiduciary duty or any other obligation of any type whatsoever of the General Partner or of any Indemnitee for
the Indemnitees (other than the General Partner) to engage in such business interests and activities in preference to or to the
exclusion of the Partnership.


 


(c)          Subject
to the terms of Sections 7.5(a) and 7.5(b) and the Omnibus Agreement, but otherwise notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, the doctrine of corporate opportunity, or any analogous doctrine, shall not apply to an Indemnitee (including the
General Partner) and no Indemnitee (including the General Partner) who acquires knowledge of a potential transaction, agreement,
arrangement or other matter that may be an opportunity for the Partnership shall have any duty to communicate or offer such opportunity
to the Partnership, and such Indemnitee (including the General Partner) shall not be liable to the Partnership, to any Limited
Partner or any other Person for breach of any fiduciary or other duty by reason of the fact that such Indemnitee (including the
General Partner) pursues or acquires for itself, directs such opportunity to another Person or does not communicate such opportunity
or information to the Partnership.


 




    	54



    	 



    

 


(d)          The
General Partner and each of its Affiliates may acquire Units or other Partnership Securities and, except as otherwise provided
in this Agreement, shall be entitled to exercise, at their option, all rights relating to all Units or other Partnership Securities
acquired by them. The term “Affiliates” when used in this Section 7.5(d) with respect to the General Partner shall
not include any Group Member.


 


(e)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent that any provision of this Section 7.5 purports or is interpreted to
have the effect of restricting, eliminating or otherwise modifying the fiduciary duties that might otherwise, as a result of Delaware
or other applicable law, be owed by the General Partner to the Partnership and its Limited Partners, or to constitute a waiver
or consent by the Limited Partners to any such fiduciary duty, such provisions in this Section 7.5 shall be deemed to have been
approved by the Partners.


 


Section 7.6           Loans
from the General Partner; Loans or Contributions from the Partnership or Group Members.


 


(a)          The
General Partner or any of its Affiliates may lend to any Group Member, and any Group Member may borrow from the General Partner
or any of its Affiliates, funds needed or desired by the Group Member for such periods of time and in such amounts as the General
Partner may determine; provided, however, that in any such case the lending party may not charge the borrowing party
interest at a rate greater than the rate that would be charged the borrowing party or impose terms less favorable to the borrowing
party than would be charged or imposed on the borrowing party by unrelated lenders on comparable loans made on an arm’s-length
basis (without reference to the lending party’s financial abilities or guarantees), all as determined by the General Partner.
The borrowing party shall reimburse the lending party for any costs (other than any additional interest costs) incurred by the
lending party in connection with the borrowing of such funds. For purposes of this Section 7.6(a) and Section 7.6(b), the term
“Group Member” shall include any Affiliate of a Group Member that is controlled by the Group Member.


 


(b)          The
Partnership may lend or contribute to any Group Member, and any Group Member may borrow from the Partnership, funds on terms and
conditions determined by the General Partner. No Group Member may lend funds to the General Partner or any of its Affiliates (other
than another Group Member).


 




    	55



    	 



    

 


Section 7.7           Indemnification.


 


(a)          To
the fullest extent permitted by law but subject to the limitations expressly provided in this Agreement, all Indemnitees shall
be indemnified and held harmless by the Partnership from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or
several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or other amounts arising
from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which
any Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its status as an Indemnitee;
provided, that the Indemnitee shall not be indemnified and held harmless if there has been a final and non-appealable judgment
entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in respect of the matter for which the Indemnitee is seeking indemnification
pursuant to this Section 7.7, the Indemnitee acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud, willful misconduct or, in the case of a criminal
matter, acted with knowledge that the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful; provided, further, no indemnification pursuant
to this Section 7.7 shall be available to the General Partner or its Affiliates (other than a Group Member) with respect to its
or their obligations incurred pursuant to the Contribution Agreement (other than obligations incurred by the General Partner on
behalf of the Partnership). Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership,
it being agreed that the General Partner shall not be personally liable for such indemnification and shall have no obligation to
contribute or loan any monies or property to the Partnership to enable it to effectuate such indemnification.


 


(b)          To
the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee who is indemnified
pursuant to Section 7.7(a) in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, be advanced by
the Partnership prior to a determination that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified upon receipt by the Partnership
of any undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Indemnitee is not
entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Section 7.7.


 


(c)          The
indemnification provided by this Section 7.7 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under
any agreement, pursuant to any vote of the holders of Outstanding Limited Partner Interests, as a matter of law or otherwise, both
as to actions in the Indemnitee’s capacity as an Indemnitee and as to actions in any other capacity, and shall continue as
to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and
administrators of the Indemnitee.


 


(d)          The
Partnership may purchase and maintain (or reimburse the General Partner or its Affiliates for the cost of) insurance, on behalf
of the General Partner, its Affiliates and such other Persons as the General Partner shall determine, against any liability that
may be asserted against, or expense that may be incurred by, such Person in connection with the Partnership’s activities
or such Person’s activities on behalf of the Partnership, regardless of whether the Partnership would have the power to indemnify
such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.


 




    	56



    	 



    

 


(e)          For
purposes of this Section 7.7, the Partnership shall be deemed to have requested an Indemnitee to serve as fiduciary of an employee
benefit plan whenever the performance by it of its duties to the Partnership also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services
by, it to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes assessed on an Indemnitee with respect to an employee
benefit plan pursuant to applicable law shall constitute “fines” within the meaning of Section 7.7(a); and action taken
or omitted by it with respect to any employee benefit plan in the performance of its duties for a purpose reasonably believed by
it to be in the best interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose that is in
the best interests of the Partnership.


 


(f)          In
no event may an Indemnitee subject the Limited Partners to personal liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth
in this Agreement.


 


(g)          An
Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.7 because the Indemnitee had an interest
in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of
this Agreement.


 


(h)          The
provisions of this Section 7.7 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and
shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons.


 


(i)          No
amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.7 or any provision hereof shall in any manner terminate, reduce or impair the
right of any past, present or future Indemnitee to be indemnified by the Partnership, nor the obligations of the Partnership to
indemnify any such Indemnitee under and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.7 as in effect immediately prior to
such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part,
prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.


 


Section 7.8           Liability
of Indemnitees.


 


(a)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, no Indemnitee shall be liable for monetary damages to the Partnership, the
Limited Partners, the Assignees or any other Persons who have acquired interests in the Partnership Securities, for losses sustained
or liabilities incurred as a result of any act or omission of an Indemnitee unless there has been a final and non-appealable judgment
entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in respect of the matter in question, the Indemnitee acted in bad
faith or engaged in fraud, willful misconduct or, in the case of a criminal matter, acted with knowledge that the Indemnitee’s
conduct was criminal.


 


(b)          Subject
to its obligations and duties as General Partner set forth in Section 7.1(a), the General Partner may exercise any of the powers
granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through its agents,
and the General Partner shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent appointed by the
General Partner in good faith.


 


(c)          To
the extent that, at law or in equity, an Indemnitee has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to
the Partnership or to the Partners, the General Partner and any other Indemnitee acting in connection with the Partnership’s
business or affairs shall not be liable to the Partnership or to any Partner for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this
Agreement.


 




    	57



    	 



    

 


(d)          Any
amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.8 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way
affect the limitations on the liability of the Indemnitees under this Section 7.8 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment,
modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such
amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.


 


Section 7.9           Resolution
of Conflicts of Interest; Standards of Conduct and Modification of Duties.


 


(a)          Unless
otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any Group Member Agreement, whenever a potential conflict of interest exists
or arises between the General Partner or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Partnership, any Group Member, any Partner
or any Assignee, on the other, any resolution or course of action by the General Partner or its Affiliates in respect of such conflict
of interest shall be permitted and deemed approved by all Partners, and shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement, of any
Group Member Agreement, of any agreement contemplated herein or therein, or of any duty stated or implied by law or equity, if
the resolution or course of action in respect of such conflict of interest is (i) approved by Special Approval, (ii) approved
by the vote of a majority of the Common Units (excluding Common Units owned by the General Partner and its Affiliates), (iii) on
terms no less favorable to the Partnership than those generally being provided to or available from unrelated third parties or
(iv) fair and reasonable to the Partnership, taking into account the totality of the relationships between the parties involved
(including other transactions that may be particularly favorable or advantageous to the Partnership). The General Partner shall
be authorized but not required in connection with its resolution of such conflict of interest to seek Special Approval of such
resolution, and the General Partner may also adopt a resolution or course of action that has not received Special Approval. If
Special Approval is not sought and the Board of Directors of the General Partner determines that the resolution or course of action
taken with respect to a conflict of interest satisfies either of the standards set forth in clauses (iii) or (iv) above,
then it shall be presumed that, in making its decision, the Board of Directors acted in good faith, and in any proceeding brought
by any Limited Partner or Assignee or by or on behalf of such Limited Partner or Assignee or any other Limited Partner or Assignee
or the Partnership challenging such approval, the Person bringing or prosecuting such proceeding shall have the burden of overcoming
such presumption. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any duty otherwise existing at law or equity, the
existence of the conflicts of interest described in the Registration Statement are hereby approved by all Partners and shall not
constitute a breach of this Agreement.


 


(b)          Whenever
the General Partner makes a determination or takes or declines to take any other action, or any of its Affiliates causes it to
do so, in its capacity as the general partner of the Partnership as opposed to in its individual capacity, whether under this Agreement,
any Group Member Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or otherwise, then, unless another express standard is provided
for in this Agreement, the General Partner, or such Affiliates causing it to do so, shall make such determination or take or decline
to take such other action in good faith and shall not be subject to any other or different standards imposed by this Agreement,
any Group Member Agreement, any other agreement contemplated hereby or under the Delaware Act or any other law, rule or regulation
or at equity. In order for a determination or other action to be in “good faith” for purposes of this Agreement, the
Person or Persons making such determination or taking or declining to take such other action must believe that the determination
or other action is in the best interests of the Partnership or the holders of the Common Units (other than the General Partner
and its Affiliates) as the case may be.

(c)          Whenever
the General Partner makes a determination or takes or declines to take any other action, or any of its Affiliates causes it to
do so, in its individual capacity as opposed to in its capacity as the general partner of the Partnership, whether under this Agreement,
any Group Member Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or otherwise, then the General Partner, or such Affiliates
causing it to do so, are entitled to make such determination or to take or decline to take such other action free of any fiduciary
duty or obligation whatsoever to the Partnership, any Limited Partner or Assignee, and the General Partner, or such Affiliates
causing it to do so, shall not be required to act in good faith or pursuant to any other standard imposed by this Agreement, any
Group Member Agreement, any other agreement contemplated hereby or under the Delaware Act or any other law, rule or regulation
or at equity. By way of illustration and not of limitation, whenever the phrase, “at the option of the General Partner,”
or some variation of that phrase, is used in this Agreement, it indicates that the General Partner is acting in its individual
capacity. For the avoidance of doubt, whenever the General Partner votes or transfers its Units or General Partner Interest, to
the extent permitted under this Agreement, or refrains from voting or transferring its Units or General Partner Interest, as appropriate,
it shall be acting in its individual capacity. The General Partner’s organizational documents may provide that determinations
to take or decline to take any action in its individual, rather than representative, capacity may or shall be determined by its
members, if the General Partner is a limited liability company, stockholders, if the General Partner is a corporation, or the members
or stockholders of the General Partner’s general partner, if the General Partner is a limited partnership.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the General Partner and its Affiliates shall have no duty or obligation, express or
implied, to (i) sell or otherwise dispose of any asset of the Partnership Group other than in the ordinary course of business
or (ii) permit any Group Member to use any facilities or assets of the General Partner and its Affiliates, except as may be
provided in contracts entered into from time to time specifically dealing with such use. Any determination by the General Partner
or any of its Affiliates to enter into such contracts shall be at its option.


 


(e)          Except
as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither the General Partner nor any other Indemnitee shall have any duties or liabilities,
including fiduciary duties, to the Partnership or any Limited Partner or Assignee and the provisions of this Agreement, to the
extent that they restrict, eliminate or otherwise modify the duties and liabilities, including fiduciary duties, of the General
Partner or any other Indemnitee otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Partners to replace such other duties
and liabilities of the General Partner or such other Indemnitee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, neither the General Partner nor any other Indemnitee shall owe any duties or liabilities, including fiduciary
duties, to Series A Holders or Series B Holders.


 




    	59



    	 



    

 


(f)          The
Unitholders hereby authorize the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership as a partner or member of a Group Member, to approve
of actions by the general partner or managing member of such Group Member similar to those actions permitted to be taken by the
General Partner pursuant to this Section 7.9.


 


Section 7.10         Other
Matters Concerning the General Partner.


 


(a)          The
General Partner may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.


 


(b)          The
General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants
and advisers selected by it, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the advice or opinion (including an Opinion
of Counsel) of such Persons as to matters that the General Partner reasonably believes to be within such Person’s professional
or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such advice
or opinion.


 


(c)          The
General Partner shall have the right, in respect of any of its powers or obligations hereunder, to act through any of its duly
authorized officers, a duly appointed attorney or attorneys-in-fact or the duly authorized officers of the Partnership.


 


Section 7.11         Purchase
or Sale of Partnership Securities. The General Partner may cause the Partnership to purchase or otherwise acquire Partnership
Securities. As long as Partnership Securities are held by any Group Member, such Partnership Securities shall not be considered
Outstanding for any purpose, except as otherwise provided herein. The General Partner or any Affiliate of the General Partner may
also purchase or otherwise acquire and sell or otherwise dispose of Partnership Securities for its own account, subject to the
provisions of Articles IV and X.

Section 7.12         Registration
Rights of the General Partner and its Affiliates.


 


(a)          If
(i) any holder of Partnership Securities (the “Holder”), including the General Partner or any Affiliate
of the General Partner (including for purposes of this Section 7.12, any Person that is an Affiliate of the General Partner at
the date hereof notwithstanding that it may later cease to be an Affiliate of the General Partner), holds Partnership Securities
that it desires to sell and (ii) Rule 144 of the Securities Act (or any successor rule or regulation to Rule 144) or another
exemption from registration is not available to enable the Holder to dispose of the number of Partnership Securities it desires
to sell at the time it desires to do so without registration under the Securities Act, then at the option and upon the request
of the Holder, the Partnership shall file with the Commission as promptly as practicable after receiving such request, and use
all commercially reasonable efforts to cause to become effective and remain effective for a period of not less than six months
following its effective date or such shorter period as shall terminate when all Partnership Securities covered by such registration
statement have been sold, a registration statement under the Securities Act registering the offering and sale of the number of
Partnership Securities specified by the Holder; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not be required to
effect more than three registrations pursuant to Section 7.12; and provided further, however, that if the Conflicts Committee determines
in good faith that the requested registration would be materially detrimental to the Partnership and its Partners because such
registration would (x) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, reorganization or other similar transaction involving
the Partnership, (y) require premature disclosure of material information that the Partnership has a bona fide business purpose
for preserving as confidential or (z) render the Partnership unable to comply with requirements under applicable securities
laws, then the Partnership shall have the right to postpone such requested registration for a period of not more than six months
after receipt of the Holder’s request, such right pursuant to this Section 7.12(a) not to be utilized more than once in any
twelve-month period. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Partnership shall be deemed not to have used all commercially
reasonable efforts to keep the registration statement effective during the applicable period if it voluntarily takes any action
that would result in Holders of Partnership Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Partnership Securities
at any time during such period, unless such action is required by applicable law. In connection with any registration pursuant
to the first sentence of this Section 7.12(a), the Partnership shall (i) promptly prepare and file (A) such documents
as may be necessary to register or qualify the securities subject to such registration under the securities laws of such states
as the Holder shall reasonably request; provided, however, that no such qualification shall be required in any jurisdiction
where, as a result thereof, the Partnership would become subject to general service of process or to taxation or qualification
to do business as a foreign corporation or partnership doing business in such jurisdiction solely as a result of such registration,
and (B) such documents as may be necessary to apply for listing or to list the Partnership Securities subject to such registration
on such National Securities Exchange as the Holder shall reasonably request, and (ii) do any and all other acts and things
that may be necessary or appropriate to enable the Holder to consummate a public sale of such Partnership Securities in such states.
Except as set forth in Section 7.12(c), all costs and expenses of any such registration and offering (other than the underwriting
discounts and commissions) shall be paid by the Partnership, without reimbursement by the Holder.


 


(b)          If
the Partnership shall at any time propose to file a registration statement under the Securities Act for an offering of equity securities
of the Partnership for cash (other than an offering relating solely to an employee benefit plan), the Partnership shall use all
commercially reasonable efforts to include such number or amount of securities held by any Holder in such registration statement
as the Holder shall request; provided, that the Partnership is not required to make any effort or take an action to so include
the securities of the Holder once the registration statement becomes or is declared effective by the Commission, including any
registration statement providing for the offering from time to time of securities pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act. If
the proposed offering pursuant to this Section 7.12(b) shall be an underwritten offering, then, in the event that the managing
underwriter or managing underwriters of such offering advise the Partnership and the Holder in writing that in their opinion the
inclusion of all or some of the Holder’s Partnership Securities would adversely and materially affect the success of the
offering, the Partnership shall include in such offering only that number or amount, if any, of securities held by the Holder that,
in the opinion of the managing underwriter or managing underwriters, will not so adversely and materially affect the offering.
Except as set forth in Section 7.12(c), all costs and expenses of any such registration and offering (other than the underwriting
discounts and commissions) shall be paid by the Partnership, without reimbursement by the Holder.


 




    	61



    	 



    

 


(c)          If
underwriters are engaged in connection with any registration referred to in this Section 7.12, the Partnership shall provide indemnification,
representations, covenants, opinions and other assurance to the underwriters in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such
underwriters. Further, in addition to and not in limitation of the Partnership’s obligation under Section 7.7, the Partnership
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Holder, its officers, directors and each Person
who controls the Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) and any agent thereof (collectively, “Indemnified Persons”)
from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses),
judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or
proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which any Indemnified Person may be involved, or is threatened
to be involved, as a party or otherwise, under the Securities Act or otherwise (hereinafter referred to in this Section 7.12(c)
as a “claim” and in the plural as “claims”) based upon, arising out of or resulting from any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which any Partnership Securities
were registered under the Securities Act or any state securities or Blue Sky laws, in any preliminary prospectus (if used prior
to the effective date of such registration statement), or in any summary or final prospectus or in any amendment or supplement
thereto (if used during the period the Partnership is required to keep the registration statement current), or arising out of,
based upon or resulting from the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements made therein not misleading; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not be
liable to any Indemnified Person to the extent that any such claim arises out of, is based upon or results from an untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, such preliminary, summary or final
prospectus or such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Partnership
by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person specifically for use in the preparation thereof.


 


(d)          The
provisions of Sections 7.12(a) and 7.12(b) shall continue to be applicable with respect to the General Partner (and any of the
General Partner’s Affiliates) after it ceases to be a general partner of the Partnership, during a period of two years subsequent
to the effective date of such cessation and for so long thereafter as is required for the Holder to sell all of the Partnership
Securities with respect to which it has requested during such two-year period inclusion in a registration statement otherwise filed
or that a registration statement be filed; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not be required to file
successive registration statements covering the same Partnership Securities for which registration was demanded during such two-year
period. The provisions of Section 7.12(c) shall continue in effect thereafter.


 


(e)          The
rights to cause the Partnership to register Partnership Securities pursuant to this Section 7.12 may be assigned (but only with
all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of such Partnership Securities, provided (i) the Partnership
is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee
and the Partnership Securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; and (ii) such transferee
or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms set forth in this Section 7.12.


 




    	62



    	 



    

 


(f)          Any
request to register Partnership Securities pursuant to this Section 7.12 shall (i) specify the Partnership Securities intended
to be offered and sold by the Person making the request, (ii) express such Person’s present intent to offer such Partnership
Securities for distribution, (iii) describe the nature or method of the proposed offer and sale of Partnership Securities,
and (iv) contain the undertaking of such Person to provide all such information and materials and take all action as may be
required in order to permit the Partnership to comply with all applicable requirements in connection with the registration of such
Partnership Securities.


 


Section 7.13         Reliance by Third Parties.     Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Person dealing with the Partnership shall be entitled to assume that the General
Partner and any officer of the General Partner authorized by the General Partner to act on behalf of and in the name of the Partnership
has full power and authority to encumber, sell or otherwise use in any manner any and all assets of the Partnership and to enter
into any authorized contracts on behalf of the Partnership, and such Person shall be entitled to deal with the General Partner
or any such officer as if it were the Partnership’s sole party in interest, both legally and beneficially. Each Limited Partner
hereby waives any and all defenses or other remedies that may be available against such Person to contest, negate or disaffirm
any action of the General Partner or any such officer in connection with any such dealing. In no event shall any Person dealing
with the General Partner or any such officer or its representatives be obligated to ascertain that the terms of this Agreement
have been complied with or to inquire into the necessity or expedience of any act or action of the General Partner or any such
officer or its representatives. Each and every certificate, document or other instrument executed on behalf of the Partnership
by the General Partner or its representatives shall be conclusive evidence in favor of any and every Person relying thereon or
claiming thereunder that (a) at the time of the execution and delivery of such certificate, document or instrument, this Agreement
was in full force and effect, (b) the Person executing and delivering such certificate, document or instrument was duly authorized
and empowered to do so for and on behalf of the Partnership and (c) such certificate, document or instrument was duly executed
and delivered in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and is binding upon the Partnership.

the Partnership in the regular course of its business, including the record of the Record Holders and Assignees of Units or other
Partnership Securities, books of account and records of Partnership proceedings, may be kept on, or be in the form of, computer

each Record Holder of a Unit as of a date selected by the General Partner, an annual report containing financial statements of
the Partnership for such fiscal year of the Partnership, presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including a balance sheet and

or appropriate.

TAX MATTERS


 


Section 9.1           Tax
Returns and Information. The Partnership shall timely file all returns of the Partnership that are required for federal, state
and local income tax purposes on the basis of the accrual method and the taxable year or years that it is required by law to adopt,
from time to time, as determined in good faith by the General Partner. The tax information reasonably required by Record Holders
for federal and state income tax reporting purposes with respect to a taxable year shall be furnished to them within 90 days of
the close of the calendar year in which the Partnership’s taxable year ends. The classification, realization and recognition
of income, gain, losses and deductions and other items shall be on the accrual method of accounting for federal income tax purposes.


 


Section 9.2           Tax
Elections.


 


(a)          The
Partnership shall make the election under Section 754 of the Code in accordance with applicable regulations thereunder, subject
to the reservation of the right to seek to revoke any such election upon the General Partner’s determination that such revocation
is in the best interests of the Limited Partners. Notwithstanding any other provision herein contained, for the purposes of computing
the adjustments under Section 743(b) of the Code, the General Partner shall be authorized (but not required) to adopt a convention
whereby the price paid by a transferee of a Limited Partner Interest will be deemed to be the lowest quoted closing price of the
Limited Partner Interests on any National Securities Exchange on which such Limited Partner Interests are listed or admitted to
trading during the calendar month in which such transfer is deemed to occur pursuant to Section 6.2(h) without regard to the actual
price paid by such transferee.

the Code) and is authorized and required to represent the Partnership (at the Partnership’s expense) in connection with all
examinations of the Partnership’s affairs by tax authorities, including resulting administrative and judicial proceedings,
and to expend Partnership funds for professional services and costs associated therewith. Each Partner agrees to cooperate with
the General Partner and to do or refrain from doing any or all things reasonably required by the General Partner to conduct such
proceedings.


 


Section 9.4           Withholding.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner is authorized to take any action that may be required
to cause the Partnership and other Group Members to comply with any withholding requirements established under the Code or any
other federal, state or local law including pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445 and 1446 of the Code. To the extent that the
Partnership is required or elects to withhold and pay over to any taxing authority any amount resulting from the allocation or
distribution of income to any Partner or Assignee (including by reason of Section 1446 of the Code), the General Partner may treat
the amount withheld as a distribution of cash pursuant to Section 6.3 in the amount of such withholding from such Partner.

ADMISSION OF PARTNERS


 


Section 10.1         Admission
of Substituted Limited Partners. By transfer of a Limited Partner Interest in accordance with Article IV, the transferor shall
be deemed to have given the transferee the right to seek admission as a Substituted Limited Partner subject to the conditions of,
and in the manner permitted under, this Agreement. A transferor of a Certificate representing a Limited Partner Interest shall,
however, only have the authority to convey to a purchaser or other transferee who does not execute and deliver a Transfer Application
(a) the right to negotiate such Certificate to a purchaser or other transferee and (b) the right to transfer the right
to request admission as a Substituted Limited Partner to such purchaser or other transferee in respect of the transferred Limited
Partner Interests. No transferor of a Limited Partner Interest or other Person shall have any obligation or responsibility to provide
a Transfer Application to a transferee or assist or participate in any way with respect to the completion or delivery thereof.
Each transferee of a Limited Partner Interest (including any nominee holder or an agent acquiring such Limited Partner Interest
for the account of another Person) who executes and delivers a properly completed Transfer Application shall, by virtue of such
execution and delivery, be an Assignee. Such Assignee shall automatically be admitted to the Partnership as a Substituted Limited
Partner with respect to the Limited Partner Interests so transferred to such Person at such time as such transfer is recorded in
the books and records of the Partnership, and until so recorded, such transferee shall be an Assignee. The General Partner shall
periodically, but no less frequently than on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, cause any unrecorded transfers of
Limited Partner Interests with respect to which a properly completed, duly executed Transfer Application has been received to be
recorded in the books and records of the Partnership. An Assignee shall have an interest in the Partnership equivalent to that
of a Limited Partner with respect to allocations and distributions, including liquidating distributions, of the Partnership. With
respect to voting rights attributable to Limited Partner Interests that are held by Assignees, the General Partner shall be deemed
to be the Limited Partner with respect thereto and shall, in exercising the voting rights in respect of such Limited Partner Interests
on any matter, vote such Limited Partner Interests at the written direction of the Assignee who is the Record Holder of such Limited
Partner Interests. If no such written direction is received, such Limited Partner Interests will not be voted. An Assignee shall
have no other rights of a Limited Partner.


 




    	65



    	 



    

 


Section 10.2         Admission
of Successor General Partner. A successor General Partner approved pursuant to Section 11.1 or 11.2 or the transferee of or
successor to all of the General Partner Interest pursuant to Section 4.6 who is proposed to be admitted as a successor General
Partner shall be admitted to the Partnership as the General Partner, effective immediately prior to the withdrawal or removal of
the predecessor or transferring General Partner, pursuant to Section 11.1 or 11.2 or the transfer of the General Partner Interest
pursuant to Section 4.6, provided, however, that no such successor shall be admitted to the Partnership until compliance with the
terms of Section 4.6 has occurred and such successor has executed and delivered such other documents or instruments as may be required
to effect such admission. Any such successor shall, subject to the terms hereof, carry on the business of the members of the Partnership
Group without dissolution.


 


Section 10.3         Admission
of Additional Limited Partners.


 


(a)          A
Person (other than the General Partner or a Limited Partner) who makes a Capital Contribution to the Partnership in accordance
with this Agreement shall be admitted to the Partnership as an Additional Limited Partner only upon furnishing to the General Partner:


 


(i)          evidence
of acceptance in form satisfactory to the General Partner of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the power
of attorney granted in Section 2.6, and


 


(ii)         such
other documents or instruments as may be required by the General Partner to effect such Person’s admission as an Additional
Limited Partner.


 


(b)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 10.3, no Person shall be admitted as an Additional Limited Partner without the consent
of the General Partner. The admission of any Person as an Additional Limited Partner shall become effective on the date upon which
the name of such Person is recorded as such in the books and records of the Partnership, following the consent of the General Partner
to such admission.


 


Section 10.4         Amendment
of Agreement and Certificate of Limited Partnership. To effect the admission to the Partnership of any Partner, the General
Partner shall take all steps necessary or appropriate under the Delaware Act to amend the records of the Partnership to reflect
such admission and, if necessary, to prepare as soon as practicable an amendment to this Agreement and, if required by law, the
General Partner shall prepare and file an amendment to the Certificate of Limited Partnership, and the General Partner may for
this purpose, among others, exercise the power of attorney granted pursuant to Section 2.6.

    	67



    	 



    

 


(b)          Withdrawal

Agreement under the following circumstances: (i) at any time during the period beginning on October 10, 2006 and ending

(excluding Common Units held by the General Partner and its Affiliates) and the General Partner delivers to the Partnership an
Opinion of Counsel (“Withdrawal Opinion of Counsel”) that such withdrawal (following the selection of the successor
General Partner) would not result in the loss of the limited liability of any Limited Partner or any Group Member or cause any
Group Member to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise to be taxed as an entity for federal income
tax purposes (to the extent not already so treated or taxed); (ii) at any time after 12:00 midnight, prevailing Eastern Time,
on December 31, 2016, the General Partner voluntarily withdraws by giving at least 90 days’ advance notice to the Unitholders,
such withdrawal to take effect on the date specified in such notice; (iii) at any time that the General Partner ceases to
be the General Partner pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(ii) or is removed pursuant to Section 11.2; or (iv) notwithstanding clause
(i) of this sentence, at any time that the General Partner voluntarily withdraws by giving at least 90 days’ advance
notice of its intention to withdraw to the Limited Partners, such withdrawal to take effect on the date specified in the notice,
if at the time such notice is given one Person and its Affiliates (other than the General Partner and its Affiliates) own beneficially
or of record or control at least 50% of the Outstanding Units. The withdrawal of the General Partner from the Partnership upon
the occurrence of an Event of Withdrawal shall also constitute the withdrawal of the General Partner as general partner or managing
member, if any, to the extent applicable, of the other Group Members. If the General Partner gives a notice of withdrawal pursuant
to Section 11.1(a)(i), the holders of a Unit Majority, may, prior to the effective date of such withdrawal, elect a successor General
Partner. The Person so elected as successor General Partner shall automatically become the successor general partner or managing
member, to the extent applicable, of the other Group Members of which the General Partner is a general partner or a managing member.
If, prior to the effective date of the General Partner’s withdrawal, a successor is not selected by the Unitholders as provided
herein or the Partnership does not receive a Withdrawal Opinion of Counsel, the Partnership shall be dissolved in accordance with
Section 12.1. Any successor General Partner elected in accordance with the terms of this Section 11.1 shall be subject to the provisions
of Section 10.2.


 


Section 11.2         Removal
of the General Partner. The General Partner may be removed if such removal is approved by the Unitholders holding at least
66 2/3% of the Outstanding Units (including Units held by the General Partner and its Affiliates) voting as a single class. Any
such action by such holders for removal of the General Partner must also provide for the election of a successor General Partner
by the Unitholders of a Unit Majority. Such removal shall be effective immediately following the admission of a successor General
Partner pursuant to Section 10.2. The removal of the General Partner shall also automatically constitute the removal of the General
Partner as general partner or managing member, to the extent applicable, of the other Group Members of which the General Partner
is a general partner or a managing member. If a Person is elected as a successor General Partner in accordance with the terms of
this Section 11.2, such Person shall, upon admission pursuant to Section 10.2, automatically become a successor general partner
or managing member, to the extent applicable, of the other Group Members of which the General Partner is a general partner or a
managing member. The right of the holders of Outstanding Units to remove the General Partner shall not exist or be exercised unless
the Partnership has received an opinion opining as to the matters covered by a Withdrawal Opinion of Counsel. Any successor General
Partner elected in accordance with the terms of this Section 11.2 shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10.2.

Section 11.3         Interest
of Departing General Partner and Successor General Partner.


 


(a)          In
the event of (i) withdrawal of the General Partner under circumstances where such withdrawal does not violate this Agreement
or (ii) removal of the General Partner by the holders of Outstanding Units under circumstances where Cause does not exist,
if the successor General Partner is elected in accordance with the terms of Sections 11.1 or 11.2, the Departing General Partner
shall have the option, exercisable prior to the effective date of the departure of such Departing General Partner, to require its
successor to purchase its General Partner Interest and its general partner interest (or equivalent interest), if any, in the other
Group Members (collectively, the “Combined Interest”) in exchange for an amount in cash equal to the fair market
value of such Combined Interest, such amount to be determined and payable as of the effective date of its departure. If the General
Partner is removed by the Unitholders under circumstances where Cause exists or if the General Partner withdraws under circumstances
where such withdrawal violates this Agreement, and if a successor General Partner is elected in accordance with the terms of Sections 11.1
or 11.2 (or if the business of the Partnership is continued pursuant to Section 12.2 and the successor General Partner is not the
former General Partner), such successor shall have the option, exercisable prior to the effective date of the departure of such
Departing General Partner (or, in the event the business of the Partnership is continued, prior to the date the business of the
Partnership is continued), to purchase the Combined Interest for such fair market value of such Combined Interest of the Departing
General Partner. In either event, the Departing General Partner shall be entitled to receive all reimbursements due such Departing
General Partner pursuant to Section 7.4, including any employee-related liabilities (including severance liabilities), incurred
in connection with the termination of any employees employed by the Departing General Partner or its Affiliates (other than any
Group Member) for the benefit of the Partnership or the other Group Members.


 


For purposes of this Section
11.3(a), the fair market value of the Departing General Partner’s Combined Interest shall be determined by agreement between
the Departing General Partner and its successor or, failing agreement within 30 days after the effective date of such Departing
General Partner’s departure, by an independent investment banking firm or other independent expert selected by the Departing
General Partner and its successor, which, in turn, may rely on other experts, and the determination of which shall be conclusive
as to such matter. If such parties cannot agree upon one independent investment banking firm or other independent expert within
45 days after the effective date of such departure, then the Departing General Partner shall designate an independent investment
banking firm or other independent expert, the Departing General Partner’s successor shall designate an independent investment
banking firm or other independent expert, and such firms or experts shall mutually select a third independent investment banking
firm or independent expert, which third independent investment banking firm or other independent expert shall determine the fair
market value of the Combined Interest of the Departing General Partner. In making its determination, such third independent investment
banking firm or other independent expert may consider the then current trading price of Units on any National Securities Exchange
on which Units are then listed or admitted to trading, the value of the Partnership’s assets, the rights and obligations
of the Departing General Partner and other factors it may deem relevant.


 




    	69



    	 



    

 


(b)          If
the Combined Interest is not purchased in the manner set forth in Section 11.3(a), the Departing General Partner (or its transferee)
shall become a Limited Partner and its Combined Interest shall be converted into Common Units pursuant to a valuation made by an
investment banking firm or other independent expert selected pursuant to Section 11.3(a), without reduction in such Partnership
Interest (but subject to proportionate dilution by reason of the admission of its successor). Any successor General Partner shall
indemnify the Departing General Partner (or its transferee) as to all debts and liabilities of the Partnership arising on or after
the date on which the Departing General Partner (or its transferee) becomes a Limited Partner. For purposes of this Agreement,
conversion of the Combined Interest of the Departing General Partner to Common Units will be characterized as if the Departing
General Partner (or its transferee) contributed its Combined Interest to the Partnership in exchange for the newly issued Common
Units.


 


(c)          If
a successor General Partner is elected in accordance with the terms of Sections 11.1 or 11.2 (or if the business of the Partnership
is continued pursuant to Section 12.2 and the successor General Partner is not the former General Partner) and the option described
in Section 11.3(a) is not exercised by the party entitled to do so, such successor General Partner shall, subject to the following
sentence, be entitled to its Percentage Interest of all Partnership allocations and distributions to which the Departing General
Partner was entitled. In addition, the successor General Partner shall cause this Agreement to be amended to reflect that, from
and after the date of such successor General Partner’s admission, the successor General Partner’s interest in all Partnership
distributions and allocations shall be its Percentage Interest.


 


Section 11.4         Withdrawal
of Limited Partners. No Limited Partner shall have any right to withdraw from the Partnership; provided, however, that
when a transferee of a Limited Partner’s Limited Partner Interest becomes a Record Holder of the Limited Partner Interest
so transferred, such transferring Limited Partner shall cease to be a Limited Partner with respect to the Limited Partner Interest
so transferred.


 


Article
XII

DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION


 


Section 12.1         Dissolution.
The Partnership shall not be dissolved by the admission of Substituted Limited Partners or Additional Limited Partners or by the
admission of a successor General Partner in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon the removal or withdrawal of the
General Partner, if a successor General Partner is elected pursuant to Sections 11.1 or 11.2, the Partnership shall not be dissolved
and such successor General Partner shall continue the business of the Partnership. The Partnership shall dissolve, and (subject
to Section 12.2) its affairs shall be wound up, upon:


 




    	70



    	 



    

 


(a)          an
Event of Withdrawal of the General Partner as provided in Section 11.1(a) (other than Section 11.1(a)(ii)), unless a successor
is elected and an Opinion of Counsel is received as provided in Sections 11.1(b) or 11.2 and such successor is admitted to the
Partnership pursuant to Section 10.2;


 


(b)          an
election to dissolve the Partnership by the General Partner that is approved by the holders of a Unit Majority;


 


(c)          the
entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Partnership pursuant to the provisions of the Delaware Act; or


 


(d)          at
any time there are no Limited Partners, unless the Partnership is continued without dissolution in accordance with the Delaware
Act.


 


Section 12.2         Continuation of the Business of the Partnership
After Dissolution. Upon (a) dissolution of the Partnership following an Event of Withdrawal caused by the withdrawal or
removal of the General Partner as provided in Section 11.1(a)(i) or (iii) and the failure of the Partners to select a successor
to such Departing General Partner pursuant to Section 11.1 or 11.2, then within 90 days thereafter, or (b) dissolution of
the Partnership upon an event constituting an Event of Withdrawal as defined in Section 11.1(a)(iv), (v) or (vi), then, to
the maximum extent permitted by law, within 180 days thereafter, the holders of a Unit Majority may elect to continue the business
of the Partnership on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement by appointing as a successor General Partner a
Person approved by the holders of a Unit Majority. Unless such an election is made within the applicable time period as set forth
above, the Partnership shall conduct only activities necessary to wind up its affairs. If such an election is so made, then:


 


(i)          the
Partnership shall continue without dissolution unless earlier dissolved in accordance with this Article XII;


 


(ii)         if
the successor General Partner is not the former General Partner, then the interest of the former General Partner shall be treated
in the manner provided in Section 11.3; and


 


(iii)        the
successor General Partner shall be admitted to the Partnership as General Partner, effective as of the Event of Withdrawal, by
agreeing in writing to be bound by this Agreement; provided, that the right of the holders of a Unit Majority to approve
a successor General Partner and to continue the business of the Partnership shall not exist and may not be exercised unless the
Partnership has received an Opinion of Counsel that (x) the exercise of the right would not result in the loss of limited
liability of any Limited Partner and (y) neither the Partnership nor any Group Member would be treated as an association taxable
as a corporation or otherwise be taxable as an entity for federal income tax purposes upon the exercise of such right to continue
(to the extent not already so treated or taxed).


 




    	71



    	 



    

 


Section 12.3         Liquidator.
Upon dissolution of the Partnership, unless the business of the Partnership is continued pursuant to Section 12.2, the General
Partner shall select one or more Persons to act as Liquidator. The Liquidator (if other than the General Partner) shall be entitled
to receive such compensation for its services as may be approved by holders of a Unit Majority. The Liquidator (if other than the
General Partner) shall agree not to resign at any time without 15 days’ prior notice and may be removed at any time, with
or without cause, by notice of removal approved by holders of a Unit Majority. Upon dissolution, removal or resignation of the
Liquidator, a successor and substitute Liquidator (who shall have and succeed to all rights, powers and duties of the original
Liquidator) shall within 30 days thereafter be approved by holders of a Unit Majority. The right to approve a successor or substitute
Liquidator in the manner provided herein shall be deemed to refer also to any such successor or substitute Liquidator approved
in the manner herein provided. Except as expressly provided in this Article XII, the Liquidator approved in the manner provided
herein shall have and may exercise, without further authorization or consent of any of the parties hereto, all of the powers conferred
upon the General Partner under the terms of this Agreement (but subject to all of the applicable limitations, contractual and otherwise,
upon the exercise of such powers, other than the limitation on sale set forth in Section 7.3) necessary or appropriate to carry
out the duties and functions of the Liquidator hereunder for and during the period of time required to complete the winding up
and liquidation of the Partnership as provided for herein.


 


Section 12.4         Liquidation.
The Liquidator shall proceed to dispose of the assets of the Partnership, discharge its liabilities, and otherwise wind up its
affairs in such manner and over such period as determined by the Liquidator, subject to Section 17-804 of the Delaware Act and
the following:


 


(a)          The
assets may be disposed of by public or private sale or by distribution in kind to one or more Partners on such terms as the Liquidator
and such Partner or Partners may agree. If any property is distributed in kind, the Partner receiving the property shall be deemed
for purposes of Section 12.4(c) to have received cash equal to its fair market value; and contemporaneously therewith, appropriate
cash distributions must be made to the other Partners. The Liquidator may defer liquidation or distribution of the Partnership’s
assets for a reasonable time if it determines that an immediate sale or distribution of all or some of the Partnership’s
assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Partners. The Liquidator may distribute the Partnership’s assets,
in whole or in part, in kind if it determines that a sale would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Partners.


 


(b)          Liabilities
of the Partnership include amounts owed to the Liquidator as compensation for serving in such capacity (subject to the terms of
Section 12.3) and amounts to Partners otherwise than in respect of their distribution rights under Articles VI, XVI and XVII. With
respect to any liability that is contingent, conditional or unmatured or is otherwise not yet due and payable, the Liquidator shall
either settle such claim for such amount as it thinks appropriate or establish a reserve of cash or other assets to provide for
its payment. When paid, any unused portion of the reserve shall be distributed as additional liquidation proceeds.


 


(c)          All
property and all cash in excess of that required to discharge liabilities as provided in Section 12.4(b) shall be distributed to
the Partners in accordance with, and to the extent of, the positive balances in their respective Capital Accounts, as determined
after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments (other than those made by reason of distributions pursuant to this Section
12.4(c)) for the taxable year of the Partnership during which the liquidation of the Partnership occurs (with such date of occurrence
being determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g)), and such distribution shall be made by the end
of such taxable year (or, if later, within 90 days after said date of such occurrence); provided that any accumulated and unpaid
Series A Distributions or Series B Distributions shall be treated as liabilities of the Partnership and paid (and, for purposes
of determining balances in Capital Accounts, shall not be treated as distributions pursuant to this Section 12.4(c)) prior to the
making of any distributions pursuant to this Section 12.4(c).


 




    	72



    	 



    

 


Section 12.5         Cancellation
of Certificate of Limited Partnership. Upon the completion of the distribution of Partnership cash and property as provided
in Section 12.4 in connection with the liquidation of the Partnership, the Certificate of Limited Partnership and all qualifications
of the Partnership as a foreign limited partnership in jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware shall be canceled and such
other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Partnership shall be taken.


 


Section 12.6         Return
of Contributions. The General Partner shall not be personally liable for, and shall have no obligation to contribute or loan
any monies or property to the Partnership to enable it to effectuate, the return of the Capital Contributions of the Limited Partners
or Unitholders, or any portion thereof, it being expressly understood that any such return shall be made solely from Partnership
assets.


 


Section 12.7         Waiver
of Partition. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Partner hereby waives any right to partition of the Partnership
property.


 


Section 12.8         Capital
Account Restoration. No Limited Partner shall have any obligation to restore any negative balance in its Capital Account upon
liquidation of the Partnership. The General Partner shall be obligated to restore any negative balance in its Capital Account upon
liquidation of its interest in the Partnership by the end of the taxable year of the Partnership during which such liquidation
occurs, or, if later, within 90 days after the date of such liquidation.

to be Adopted Solely by the General Partner. Each Partner agrees that the General Partner, without the approval of any Partner

may be required in connection therewith, to reflect:

ensure that the Group Members will not be treated as associations taxable as corporations or otherwise taxed as entities for federal
income tax purposes;


 




    	73



    	 



    

 


(d)          Subject

affect the Limited Partners (including any particular class of Partnership Interests as compared to other classes of Partnership
Interests) in any material respect, (ii) to be necessary or appropriate to (A) satisfy any requirements, conditions or
guidelines contained in any opinion, directive, order, ruling or regulation of any federal or state agency or judicial authority
or contained in any federal or state statute (including the Delaware Act) or (B) facilitate the trading of the Units (including

within such classes or series of Units) or comply with any rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of any National Securities
Exchange on which the Units are or will be listed or admitted to trading, (iii) to be necessary or advisable in connection

A Distributions and Series B Distributions) are to be made by the Partnership;


 


(f)          an
amendment that is necessary, in the Opinion of Counsel, to prevent the Partnership, or the General Partner or its directors, officers,
trustees or agents from in any manner being subjected to the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or “plan asset” regulations adopted under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended, regardless of whether such are substantially similar to plan asset regulations currently applied
or proposed by the United States Department of Labor;


 


(g)          subject
to the terms of Section 16.5 and Section 17.5, an amendment that the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate

amendment effected, necessitated or contemplated by a Merger Agreement or Plan of Conversion approved in accordance with Section

    	74



    	 



    

 


(k)          a
merger or conveyance or conversion pursuant to Section 14.3(d); or


 


(l)          any
other amendments substantially similar to the foregoing.


 


Section 13.2         Amendment
Procedures. Except as provided in Sections 13.1 and 13.3, all amendments to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with
the following requirements. Amendments to this Agreement may be proposed only by the General Partner; provided, however, that the
General Partner shall have no duty or obligation to propose any amendment to this Agreement and may decline to do so free of any
fiduciary duty or obligation whatsoever to the Partnership, any Limited Partner or Assignee and, in declining to propose an amendment,
to the fullest extent permitted by law shall not be required to act in good faith or pursuant to any other standard imposed by
this Agreement, any Group Member Agreement, any other agreement contemplated hereby or under the Delaware Act or any other law,
rule or regulation or at equity. A proposed amendment shall be effective upon its approval by the General Partner and the holders
of a Unit Majority, unless a greater or different percentage is required under this Agreement or by Delaware law. Each proposed
amendment that requires the approval of the holders of a specified percentage of Outstanding Units shall be set forth in a writing
that contains the text of the proposed amendment. If such an amendment is proposed, the General Partner shall seek the written
approval of the requisite percentage of Outstanding Units or call a meeting of the Unitholders to consider and vote on such proposed
amendment. The General Partner shall notify all Record Holders upon final adoption of any such proposed amendments.


 


Section 13.3         Amendment
Requirements.


 


(a)          Notwithstanding
the provisions of Sections 13.1 and 13.2, no provision of this Agreement that establishes a percentage of Outstanding Units (including
Units deemed owned by the General Partner and its Affiliates) required to take any action shall be amended, altered, changed, repealed
or rescinded in any respect that would have the effect of reducing such voting percentage unless such amendment is approved by
the written consent or the affirmative vote of holders of Outstanding Units whose aggregate Outstanding Units constitute not less
than the voting requirement sought to be reduced.


 


(b)          Notwithstanding
the provisions of Sections 13.1 and 13.2, no amendment to this Agreement may (i) enlarge the obligations of any Limited Partner
without its consent, unless such shall be deemed to have occurred as a result of an amendment approved pursuant to Section 13.3(c)
or (ii) enlarge the obligations of, restrict in any way any action by or rights of, or reduce in any way the amounts distributable,
reimbursable or otherwise payable to, the General Partner or any of its Affiliates without its consent, which consent may be given
or withheld at its option.


 


(c)          Except
as provided in Section 14.3, and without limitation of the General Partner’s authority to adopt amendments to this Agreement
without the approval of any Partners or Assignees as contemplated in Section 13.1, any amendment that would have a material adverse
effect on the rights or preferences of any class of Partnership Interests in relation to other classes of Partnership Interests
must be approved by the holders of not less than a majority of the Outstanding Partnership Interests of the class affected.


 




    	75



    	 



    

 


(d)          Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, except for amendments pursuant to Section 13.1 and except as otherwise provided by Section
14.3(b), no amendments shall become effective without the approval of the holders of at least 90% of the Outstanding Units voting
as a single class unless the Partnership obtains an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment will not affect the limited
liability of any Limited Partner under applicable law.


 


(e)          Except
as provided in Section 13.1, this Section 13.3 shall only be amended with the approval of the holders of at least 90% of the Outstanding
Units.


 


Section 13.4         Special
Meetings.


 


(a)          All
acts of Limited Partners to be taken pursuant to this Agreement shall be taken in the manner provided in this Article XIII. Special
meetings of the Limited Partners may be called by the General Partner or by Limited Partners owning 20% or more of the Outstanding
Units of the class or classes for which a meeting is proposed. Limited Partners shall call a special meeting by delivering to the
General Partner one or more requests in writing stating that the signing Limited Partners wish to call a special meeting and indicating
the general or specific purposes for which the special meeting is to be called. Within 60 days after receipt of such a call from
Limited Partners or within such greater time as may be reasonably necessary for the Partnership to comply with any statutes, rules,
regulations, listing agreements or similar requirements governing the holding of a meeting or the solicitation of proxies for use
at such a meeting, the General Partner shall send a notice of the meeting to the Limited Partners either directly or indirectly
through the Transfer Agent. A meeting shall be held at a time and place determined by the General Partner on a date not less than
10 days nor more than 60 days after the mailing of notice of the meeting. Limited Partners shall not vote on matters that would
cause the Limited Partners to be deemed to be taking part in the management and control of the business and affairs of the Partnership
so as to jeopardize the Limited Partners’ limited liability under the Delaware Act or the law of any other state in which
the Partnership is qualified to do business.


 


(b)          (i)
An annual meeting of the Limited Partners holding Common Units for the election of Directors to the Board of Directors and such
other matters as the General Partner shall submit to a vote of the Limited Partners holding Common Units shall be held in June
of each year or at such other date and time as may be fixed from time to time by the General Partner at such place within or without
the State of Delaware as may be fixed from time to time by the General Partner and all as stated in the notice of the meeting.
Notice of the annual meeting shall be given in accordance with Section 13.5 not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days prior to
the date of such meeting.


 


(ii)         The
Limited Partners holding Common Units shall vote together as a single class for the election of Directors to the Board of Directors.
The Limited Partners entitled to vote shall elect by a plurality of the votes cast at such meeting persons to serve on the Board
of Directors of the General Partner who are nominated in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.4(b). The exercise by
a Limited Partner of the right to elect the Directors and any other rights afforded to such Limited Partner under this Section
13.4(b) shall be in such Limited Partner’s capacity as a limited partner of the Partnership and shall not cause a Limited
Partner to be deemed to be taking part in the management and control of the business and affairs of the Partnership so as to jeopardize
such Limited Partner’s limited liability under the Delaware Act or the law of any other state in which the Partnership is
qualified to do business.


 




    	76



    	 



    

 


(iii)        Solely
with respect to the election of Directors to the Board of Directors: (A) the General Partner and the Partnership shall not
be entitled to vote Units that are otherwise entitled to vote at any meeting of the Unitholders; (B) if at any time any Person
or Group beneficially owns 20% or more of the Outstanding Partnership Securities of any class then Outstanding, then all Partnership
Securities owned by such Person or Group in excess of 20% of the Outstanding Partnership Securities of the applicable class shall
not be voted, and in each case, the foregoing Units shall not be counted when calculating the required votes for such matter and
shall not be deemed to be Outstanding for purposes of determining a quorum for such meeting pursuant to Section 13.9 (but such
Units shall not, however, be treated as a separate class of Partnership Securities for purposes of this Agreement), provided,
however, that this clause (B) shall not apply to any Person or Group who acquires 20% or more of the Series B Preferred
Units, including as a result of the payment of PIK Units on the Series B Preferred Units, if and only if such Person does not,
at or after such acquisition, beneficially own or acquire 20% or more of the voting power of the Common Units (taking into account
the voting rights of the Series B Preferred Units on an as-converted basis pursuant to Section 17.5(a)); and (C) holders of
the Series A Preferred Units shall not be entitled to vote in the election of Directors to the Board of Directors. Notwithstanding
the foregoing sentence, the Board of Directors of the General Partner may, by action specifically referencing votes for the election
of Directors under this Section 13.4(b), determine that the limitation set forth in clause (B) of the preceding sentence shall
not apply to a specific Person or Group.


 


(iv)        The
number of Directors that shall constitute the whole Board of Directors of the General Partner shall not be less than five and not
more than nine as shall be established from time to time by a resolution adopted by a majority of the Directors. The Board of Directors
shall be divided into three classes, Class I, Class II, and Class III. The number of Directors in each class shall be the whole
number contained in the quotient arrived at by dividing the authorized number of Directors by three, and if a fraction is also
contained in such quotient, then if such fraction is one-third, the extra director shall be a member of Class I and if the fraction
is two-thirds, one of the extra directors shall be a member of Class I and the other shall be a member of Class II. Each Director
shall serve for a term ending as provided herein; provided, however, that the Directors designated in accordance with the Fourth
Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of the General Partner (the “General Partner Agreement”)
to Class I shall serve for a term that expires at the annual meeting of Limited Partners holding Common Units held in 2015, the
Directors designated in accordance with the General Partner Agreement to Class II shall serve for an initial term that expires
at the annual meeting of Limited Partners holding Common Units held in 2016, and the Directors designated in accordance with the
General Partner Agreement to Class III shall serve for an initial term that expires at the annual meeting of Limited Partners holding
Common Units held in 2014. At each succeeding annual meeting of Limited Partners holding Common Units beginning with the annual
meeting held in 2014, successors to the class of Directors whose term expires at that annual meeting shall be elected for a three-year
term.

(v)         Each
Director shall hold office for the term for which such Director is elected and thereafter until such Director’s successor
shall have been duly elected and qualified, or until such Director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. If the number
of Directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of Directors
in each class as nearly equal as possible, and any additional Director of any class elected to fill a vacancy resulting from an
increase in such class shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class, but in no case will
a decrease in the number of Directors shorten the term of any incumbent Director. A Director shall hold office until the annual
meeting of the Limited Partners of the year in which his term expires and until his successor shall be elected and shall qualify,
subject, however, to death, resignation or removal from office. Any vacancy on the Board of Directors (including any vacancy caused
by an increase in the number of Directors on the Board of Directors) may only be filled by a majority of the Directors then in
office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining Director. Any Director elected to fill a vacancy not resulting from
an increase in the number of Directors shall have the same remaining term as that of his predecessor. A Director may be removed
only for cause and only upon a vote of the majority of the remaining Directors then in office.


 


(vi)        (A)         (1)         Nominations
of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the General Partner may be made at an annual meeting of the Limited Partners
only (a) pursuant to the General Partner’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto), (b) by or at the direction
of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof or (c) by any Limited Partner who was a Record Holder at the time the notice
provided for in this Section 13.4(b)(vi) is delivered to the General Partner, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies
with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 13.4(b)(vi).

(2)         For
any nominations brought before an annual meeting by a Limited Partner pursuant to clause (c) of paragraph (A)(1) of this Section
13.4(b)(vi), the Limited Partner must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the General Partner. To be timely, a Limited
Partner’s notice shall be delivered to the General Partner not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day,
nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day, prior to the first anniversary of the preceding
year’s annual meeting (provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days
before or more than seventy (70) days after such anniversary date, notice by the Limited Partner must be so delivered not
earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than
the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting or the tenth (10th) day following
the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Partnership or the General Partner). In no
event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new time period (or extend
any time period) for the giving of a Limited Partner’s notice as described above. Such Limited Partner’s notice shall
set forth: (a) as to each person whom the Limited Partner proposes to nominate for election as a Director (i) all information
relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election contest,
or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act and
(ii) such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a Director if
elected; and (b) as to the Limited Partner giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination
is made (i) the name and address of such Limited Partner, as they appear on the Partnership’s books and records, and
of such beneficial owner, (ii) the class or series and number of Units which are owned beneficially and of record by such
Limited Partner and such beneficial owner, (iii) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect
to the nomination between or among such Limited Partner and such beneficial owner, any of their respective Affiliates or associates,
and any others acting in concert with any of the foregoing, (iv) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding
(including any derivative or short positions, profit interests, options, warrants, stock appreciation or similar rights, hedging
transactions, and borrowed or loaned Units) that has been entered into as of the date of the Limited Partner’s notice by,
or on behalf of, such Limited Partner and such beneficial owners, the effect or intent of which is to mitigate loss to, manage
risk or benefit of Unit price changes for, or increase or decrease the voting power of, such Limited Partner and such beneficial
owner, with respect to Units, (v) a representation that the Limited Partner is a Record Holder entitled to vote at such meeting
and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose such nomination, and (vi) a representation whether the
Limited Partner or the beneficial owner, if any, intends or is part of a group which intends (a) to deliver a proxy statement
and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Partnership’s Outstanding Units required to elect the nominee
and/or (b) otherwise to solicit proxies from Limited Partners in support of such nomination. The General Partner may require
any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as it may reasonably require to determine the eligibility of such proposed
nominee to serve as a Director of the General Partner.


 


(3)         Notwithstanding
anything in the second sentence of paragraph (A)(2) of this Section 13.4(b)(vi) to the contrary, in the event that the number of
Directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of the General Partner is increased effective at the annual meeting and there
is no public announcement by the Partnership or the General Partner naming the nominees for the additional directorships at least
one hundred (100) days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a Limited Partner’s
notice required by this Section 13.4(b)(vi) shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for the additional
directorships, if it shall be delivered to the General Partner not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day
following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the Partnership or the General Partner.


 




    	79



    	 



    

 


(B)         Nominations
of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a special meeting of Limited Partners at which Directors are to
be elected pursuant to the General Partner’s notice of meeting (1) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors
or any committee thereof or (2) provided that the Board of Directors or the Limited Partners pursuant to Section 13.4(a) hereof
has determined that Directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any Limited Partner who is a Record Holder at the time the notice
provided for in this Section 13.4(b)(vi) is delivered to the General Partner, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and upon such
election and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 13.4(b)(vi). In the event the General Partner calls
a special meeting of Limited Partners for the purpose of electing one or more Directors to the Board of Directors, any such Limited
Partner entitled to vote in such election of Directors may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be) for election to such
position(s) as specified in the General Partner’s notice of meeting, if the Limited Partner’s notice required by paragraph
(A)(2) of this Section 13.4(b)(vi) shall be delivered to the General Partner not earlier than the close of business on the one
hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth
(90th) day prior to such special meeting or the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public announcement is first
made of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at such meeting. In
no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of a special meeting commence a new time period (or extend
any time period) for the giving of a Limited Partner’s notice as described above.


 


(C)         (1)         Only
such persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 13.4(b)(vi) shall be eligible to be
elected at an annual or special meeting of Limited Partners to serve as Directors. Except as otherwise provided by law, the chairman
designated by the General Partner pursuant to Section 13.10 shall have the power and duty (a) to determine whether a nomination
was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 13.4(b)(vi) (including whether the Limited Partner or beneficial
owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made solicited (or is part of a group which solicited) or did not so solicit,
as the case may be, proxies in support of such Limited Partner’s nominee in compliance with such Limited Partner’s
representation as required by clause (A)(2)(b)(vi) of this Section 13.4(b)(vi)) and (b) if any proposed nomination was not
made in compliance with this Section 13.4(b)(vi), to declare that such nomination shall be disregarded. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 13.4(b)(vi), unless otherwise required by law, if the Limited Partner (or a qualified representative
of the Limited Partner) does not appear at the annual or special meeting of Limited Partners to present a nomination, such nomination
shall be disregarded notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the General Partner or the
Partnership. For purposes of this Section 13.4(b)(vi), to be considered a qualified representative of the Limited Partner, a person
must be a duly authorized officer, manager or partner of such Limited Partner or must be authorized by a writing executed by such
Limited Partner or an electronic transmission delivered by such Limited Partner to act for such Limited Partner as proxy at the
meeting of Limited Partners and such person must produce such writing or electronic transmission, or a reliable reproduction of
the writing or electronic transmission, at the meeting of Limited Partners.

(2)         For
purposes of this Section 13.4(b)(vi), “public announcement” shall include disclosure in a press release reported by
the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or other national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Partnership
or the General Partner with the Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act.


 


(3)         Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.4(b)(vi), a Limited Partner shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the
Securities Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 13.4(b)(vi);
provided however, that any references in this Agreement to the Securities Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder are
not intended to and shall not limit any requirements applicable to nominations pursuant to this Section 13.4(b)(vi) (including
paragraphs A(1)(c) and B hereof), and compliance with paragraphs A(1)(c) and B of this Section 13.4(b)(vi) shall be the exclusive
means for a Limited Partner to make nominations.


 


(vii)       This
Section 13.4(b) shall not be deemed in any way to limit or impair the ability of the Board of Directors to adopt a “poison
pill” or unitholder or other similar rights plan with respect to the Partnership, whether such poison pill or plan contains
“dead hand” provisions, “no hand” provisions or other provisions relating to the redemption of the poison
pill or plan, in each case as such terms are used under Delaware common law.


 


(viii)      The
Partnership and the General Partner shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts to take such action as shall be necessary
or appropriate to give effect to and implement the provisions of this Section 13.4(b), including amending the organizational documents
of the General Partner such that at all times the organizational documents of the General Partner shall provide (i) that the
Directors shall be elected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) terms consistent with this Section 13.4(b).


 


(ix)         If
the General Partner delegates to an existing or newly formed wholly owned Subsidiary the power and authority to manage and control
the business and affairs of the Partnership Group, the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.4(b) shall be applicable with respect
to the Board of Directors or other governing body of such Subsidiary.

Section 13.5         Notice
of a Meeting. Notice of a meeting called pursuant to Section 13.4 shall be given to the Record Holders of the class or classes
of Units for which a meeting is proposed in writing by mail or other means of written communication in accordance with Sections
16.9, 17.9 or 18.1, as applicable. The notice shall be deemed to have been given at the time when deposited in the mail or sent
by other means of written communication.


 


Section 13.6         Record
Date. For purposes of determining the Limited Partners entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the Limited Partners
or to give approvals without a meeting as provided in Section 13.11 the General Partner may set a Record Date, which shall not
be less than 10 nor more than 60 days before (a) the date of the meeting (unless such requirement conflicts with any rule,
regulation, guideline or requirement of any National Securities Exchange on which the Units are listed or admitted to trading,
in which case the rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of such National Securities Exchange shall govern) or (b) in
the event that approvals are sought without a meeting, the date by which Limited Partners are requested in writing by the General
Partner to give such approvals. If the General Partner does not set a Record Date, then (a) the Record Date for determining
the Limited Partners entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the Limited Partners shall be the close of business on the
day next preceding the day on which notice is given, and (b) the Record Date for determining the Limited Partners entitled
to give approvals without a meeting shall be the date the first written approval is deposited with the Partnership in care of the
General Partner in accordance with Section 13.11.


 


Section 13.7         Adjournment.
When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting and a new Record Date need
not be fixed, if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, unless such adjournment
shall be for more than 45 days. At the adjourned meeting, the Partnership may transact any business which might have been transacted
at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 45 days or if a new Record Date is fixed for the adjourned meeting,
a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given in accordance with this Article XIII.


 


Section 13.8         Waiver
of Notice; Approval of Meeting; Approval of Minutes. The transactions of any meeting of Limited Partners, however called and
noticed, and whenever held, shall be as valid as if it had occurred at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a
quorum is present either in person or by proxy. Attendance of a Limited Partner at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice
of the meeting, except when the Limited Partner attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the
meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened; and except that attendance
at a meeting is not a waiver of any right to disapprove the consideration of matters required to be included in the notice of the
meeting, but not so included, if the disapproval is expressly made at the meeting.


 




    	82



    	 



    

 


Section 13.9         Quorum
and Voting. Subject to Section 13.4(b), the holders of a majority of the Outstanding Units of the class, classes, or series
for which a meeting has been called (including Outstanding Units deemed owned by the General Partner) represented in person or
by proxy shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of Limited Partners of such class, classes or series unless any such action by
the Limited Partners requires approval by holders of a greater percentage of such Units, in which case the quorum shall be such
greater percentage. At any meeting of the Limited Partners duly called and held in accordance with this Agreement at which a quorum
is present, the act of Limited Partners holding Outstanding Units that in the aggregate represent a majority of the Outstanding
Units entitled to vote and be present in person or by proxy at such meeting shall be deemed to constitute the act of all Limited
Partners, unless a greater or different percentage is required with respect to such action under the provisions of this Agreement,
in which case the act of the Limited Partners holding Outstanding Units that in the aggregate represent at least such greater or
different percentage shall be required. The Limited Partners present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present
may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough Limited Partners to leave less than
a quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by the required percentage of Outstanding Units specified in
this Agreement (including Outstanding Units deemed owned by the General Partner). In the absence of a quorum any meeting of Limited
Partners may be adjourned from time to time by the affirmative vote of holders of at least a majority of the Outstanding Units
entitled to vote at such meeting (including Outstanding Units deemed owned by the General Partner) represented either in person
or by proxy, but no other business may be transacted, except as provided in Section 13.7.


 


Section 13.10         Conduct
of a Meeting. The General Partner shall have full power and authority concerning the manner of conducting any meeting of the
Limited Partners or solicitation of approvals in writing, including the determination of Persons entitled to vote, the existence
of a quorum, the satisfaction of the requirements of Section 13.4, the conduct of voting, the validity and effect of any proxies
and the determination of any controversies, votes or challenges arising in connection with or during the meeting or voting. The
General Partner shall designate a Person to serve as chairman of any meeting and shall further designate a Person to take the minutes
of any meeting. All minutes shall be kept with the records of the Partnership maintained by the General Partner. The General Partner
may make such other regulations consistent with applicable law and this Agreement as it may deem advisable concerning the conduct
of any meeting of the Limited Partners or solicitation of approvals in writing, including regulations in regard to the appointment
of proxies, the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes and approvals, the submission and examination of proxies and other
evidence of the right to vote, and the revocation of approvals in writing.


 


Section 13.11         Action
Without a Meeting. If authorized by the General Partner, any action that may be taken at a meeting of the Limited Partners
may be taken without a meeting if an approval in writing setting forth the action so taken is signed by Limited Partners owning
not less than the minimum percentage of the Outstanding Units (including Units deemed owned by the General Partner) that would
be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all the Limited Partners were present and voted (unless such
provision conflicts with any rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of any National Securities Exchange on which the Units
are listed or admitted to trading, in which case the rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of such National Securities Exchange
shall govern). Prompt notice of the taking of action without a meeting shall be given to the Limited Partners who have not approved
in writing. The General Partner may specify that any written ballot submitted to Limited Partners for the purpose of taking any
action without a meeting shall be returned to the Partnership within the time period, which shall be not less than 20 days, specified
by the General Partner; provided, however, that, if and only if any Series B Purchaser at the time beneficially owns
the majority of the Outstanding Series B Preferred Units and has (and solely controls) the right to vote those Outstanding Series
B Preferred Units, the affirmative vote or consent of the majority of the Outstanding Series B Preferred Units, where required
in this Agreement, may be obtained by written consent without any minimum time period before such consent may be delivered or be
effective (including with respect to the rights set forth in Section 17.5). If a ballot returned to the Partnership does not vote
all of the Units held by the Limited Partners, the Partnership shall be deemed to have failed to receive a ballot for the Units
that were not voted. If approval of the taking of any action by the Limited Partners is solicited by any Person other than by or
on behalf of the General Partner, the written approvals shall have no force and effect unless and until (a) they are deposited
with the Partnership in care of the General Partner, (b) approvals sufficient to take the action proposed are dated as of
a date not more than 90 days prior to the date sufficient approvals are deposited with the Partnership and (c) an Opinion
of Counsel is delivered to the General Partner to the effect that the exercise of such right and the action proposed to be taken
with respect to any particular matter (i) will not cause the Limited Partners to be deemed to be taking part in the management
and control of the business and affairs of the Partnership so as to jeopardize the Limited Partners’ limited liability, and
(ii) is otherwise permissible under the state statutes then governing the rights, duties and liabilities of the Partnership
and the Partners.

as to which the holders of the Outstanding Units have the right to vote or to act, voting together as a single class as provided
in Section 17.5(a). All references in this Agreement to votes of, or other acts that may be taken by, the Outstanding Units (other
than Outstanding Series A Preferred Units) shall be deemed to be references to the votes or acts of the Record Holders of such
Outstanding Units (other than Outstanding Series A Preferred Units), voting together as a single class as provided in Section 17.5(a).


 


(b)          Only
those Record Holders of the Series A Preferred Units or the Series B Preferred Units on the Record Date set pursuant to Section
13.6 (and subject to the limitations contained in the definition of “Outstanding” and the limitations set forth in
Sections 13.4(b), 16.5 and 17.5) shall be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, a meeting of Limited Partners holding Series A
Preferred Units or Series B Preferred Units, respectively, or to act with respect to matters as to which the holders of the Outstanding
Series A Preferred Units or Outstanding Series B Preferred Units, respectively, have the right to vote or to act. All references
in this Agreement to votes of, or other acts that may be taken by, the Outstanding Series A Preferred Units or Outstanding Series
B Preferred Units shall be deemed to be references to the votes or acts of the Record Holders of such Outstanding Series A Preferred
Units or such Outstanding Series B Preferred Units, respectively.


 




    	84



    	 



    

 


(c)          With
respect to Units that are held for a Person’s account by another Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or
clearing corporation, or an agent of any of the foregoing), in whose name such Units are registered, such other Person shall, in
exercising the voting rights in respect of such Units on any matter, and unless the arrangement between such Persons provides otherwise,
vote such Units in favor of, and at the direction of, the Person who is the beneficial owner, and the Partnership shall be entitled
to assume it is so acting without further inquiry. The provisions of this Section 13.12(c) (as well as all other provisions of
this Agreement) are subject to the provisions of Section 4.3.


 


Article
XIV

MERGER OR CONVERSION


 


Section 14.1         Authority.
The Partnership may merge or consolidate with or into one or more corporations, limited liability companies, statutory trusts or
associations, real estate investment trusts, common law trusts or unincorporated businesses, including a partnership (whether general
or limited (including a limited liability partnership)), or convert into any such entity, whether such entity is formed under the
laws of the State of Delaware or any other state of the United States of America, pursuant to a written agreement of merger or
consolidation (“Merger Agreement”), or a written plan of conversion (“Plan of Conversion”),
as the case may be, in accordance with this Article XIV.


 


Section 14.2         Procedure
for Merger, Consolidation or Conversion.


 


(a)          Merger,
consolidation or conversion of the Partnership pursuant to this Article XIV requires the prior consent of the General Partner;
provided, however, that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the General Partner shall have no duty or obligation to
consent to any merger, consolidation or conversion of the Partnership and may decline to do so free of any fiduciary duty or obligation
whatsoever to the Partnership, any Limited Partner or Assignee and, in declining to consent to a merger, consolidation or conversion,
shall not be required to act in good faith or pursuant to any other standard imposed by this Agreement, any Group Member Agreement,
any other agreement contemplated hereby or under the Delaware Act or any other law, rule or regulation or at equity.


 


(b)          If
the General Partner shall determine to consent to the merger or consolidation, the General Partner shall approve the Merger Agreement,
which shall set forth:


 


(i)          the
names and jurisdictions of formation or organization of each of the business entities proposing to merge or consolidate;


 


(ii)         the
name and jurisdiction of formation or organization of the business entity that is to survive the proposed merger or consolidation
(the “Surviving Business Entity”);


 


(iii)        the
terms and conditions of the proposed merger or consolidation;


 




    	85



    	 



    

 


(iv)        the
manner and basis of exchanging or converting the equity securities of each constituent business entity for, or into, cash, property
or interests, rights, securities or obligations of the Surviving Business Entity; and (i) if any general or limited partner
interests, securities or rights of any constituent business entity are not to be exchanged or converted solely for, or into, cash,
property or interests, rights, securities or obligations of the Surviving Business Entity, the cash, property or general or limited
partner interests, rights, securities or obligations of any general or limited partnership, corporation, trust, limited liability
company, unincorporated business or other entity (other than the Surviving Business Entity) which the holders of such interests,
securities or rights are to receive in exchange for, or upon conversion of their interests, securities or rights, and (ii) in
the case of securities represented by certificates, upon the surrender of such certificates, which cash, property or interests,
rights, securities or obligations of the Surviving Business Entity or any general or limited partnership, corporation, trust, limited
liability company, unincorporated business or other entity (other than the Surviving Business Entity), or evidences thereof, are
to be delivered;


 


(v)         a
statement of any changes in the constituent documents or the adoption of new constituent documents (the articles or certificate
of incorporation, articles of trust, declaration of trust, certificate or agreement of limited partnership or other similar charter
or governing document) of the Surviving Business Entity to be effected by such merger or consolidation;


 


(vi)        the
effective time of the merger, which may be the date of the filing of the certificate of merger pursuant to Section 14.4 or a later
date specified in or determinable in accordance with the Merger Agreement (provided, that if the effective time of the merger is
to be later than the date of the filing of such certificate of merger, the effective time shall be fixed at a date or time certain
at or prior to the time of the filing of such certificate of merger and stated therein); and


 


(vii)       such
other provisions with respect to the proposed merger or consolidation that the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate.


 


(c)          If
the General Partner shall determine to consent to the conversion, the General Partner may approve and adopt a Plan of Conversion
containing such terms and conditions that the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate.


 


Section 14.3         Approval
by Limited Partners.


 


(a)          Except
as provided in Sections 14.3(d) and 14.3(e), the General Partner, upon its approval of the Merger Agreement or Plan of Conversion,
as the case may be, shall direct that the Merger Agreement or the Plan of Conversion, as applicable, be submitted to a vote of
Limited Partners holding Common Units, whether at a special meeting or by written consent, in either case in accordance with the
requirements of Article XIII. A copy or a summary of the Merger Agreement or the Plan of Conversion, as applicable, shall be included
in or enclosed with the notice of a special meeting or the written consent.


 


(b)          Except
as provided in Sections 14.3(d) and 14.3(e), the Merger Agreement or the Plan of Conversion, as applicable, shall be approved upon
receiving the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of a Unit Majority.


 




    	86



    	 



    

 





 


(c)          Except
as provided in Sections 14.3(d) and 14.3(e), after such approval by vote or consent of the Limited Partners, and at any time prior
to the filing of the certificate of merger or certificate of conversion pursuant to Section 14.4, the merger, consolidation or
conversion may be abandoned pursuant to provisions therefor, if any, set forth in the Merger Agreement.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
anything else contained in this Article XIV or in this Agreement, the General Partner is permitted, without Limited Partner approval,
to convert the Partnership or any Group Member into a new limited liability entity, to merge the Partnership or any Group Member
into, or convey all of the Partnership’s assets to, another limited liability entity which shall be newly formed and shall
have no assets, liabilities or operations at the time of such conversion, merger or conveyance other than those it receives from
the Partnership or other Group Member if (i) the General Partner has received an Opinion of Counsel that the conversion, merger
or conveyance, as the case may be, would not result in the loss of the limited liability of any Limited Partner or cause the Partnership
to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise to be taxed as an entity for federal income tax purposes
(to the extent not previously treated as such), (ii) the sole purpose of such conversion, merger or conveyance is to effect
a mere change in the legal form of the Partnership into another limited liability entity and (iii) the governing instruments
of the new entity provide the Limited Partners and the General Partner with the same rights and obligations as are herein contained.


 


(e)          Additionally,
notwithstanding anything else contained in this Article XIV or in this Agreement, the General Partner is permitted, without Limited
Partner approval, to merge or consolidate the Partnership with or into another entity if (A) the General Partner has received
an Opinion of Counsel that the merger or consolidation, as the case may be, would not result in the loss of the limited liability
of any Limited Partner or cause the Partnership to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise to be taxed
as an entity for federal income tax purposes (to the extent not previously treated as such), (B) the merger or consolidation
would not result in an amendment to the Partnership Agreement, other than any amendments that could be adopted pursuant to Section
13.1, (C) the Partnership is the Surviving Business Entity in such merger or consolidation, (D) each Unit outstanding
immediately prior to the effective date of the merger or consolidation is to be an identical Unit of the Partnership after the
effective date of the merger or consolidation, and (E) the number of Partnership Securities to be issued by the Partnership
in such merger or consolidation do not exceed 20% of the Partnership Securities Outstanding immediately prior to the effective
date of such merger or consolidation.


 


Section 14.4         Certificate
of Merger or Conversion. Upon the required approval by the General Partner and the Unitholders of a Merger Agreement or a Plan
of Conversion, as the case may be, a certificate of merger or certificate of conversion, as applicable, shall be executed and filed
with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in conformity with the requirements of the Delaware Act.


 


Section 14.5         Amendment
of Partnership Agreement. Pursuant to Section 17-211(g) of the Delaware Act, an agreement of merger or consolidation approved
in accordance with this Article XIV may (a) effect any amendment to this Agreement or (b) effect the adoption of a new
partnership agreement for the Partnership if it is the Surviving Business Entity. Any such amendment or adoption made pursuant
to this Section 14.5 shall be effective at the effective time or date of the merger or consolidation.

RIGHT TO ACQUIRE LIMITED PARTNER INTERESTS


 


Section 15.1         Right
to Acquire Limited Partner Interests.


 


(a)          Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, if at any time the General Partner and its Affiliates hold more than 80% of the total Limited
Partner Interests of any class then Outstanding, the General Partner shall then have the right, which right it may assign and transfer
in whole or in part to the Partnership or any Affiliate of the General Partner, exercisable at its option, to purchase all, but
not less than all, of such Limited Partner Interests of such class then Outstanding held by Persons other than the General Partner
and its Affiliates, at the greater of (x) the Current Market Price as of the date three days prior to the date that the notice
described in Section 15.1(b) is mailed and (y) the highest price paid by the General Partner or any of its Affiliates for
any such Limited Partner Interest of such class purchased during the 90-day period preceding the date that the notice described
in Section 15.1(b) is mailed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the repurchase right described in this Article XV shall not apply
to Series A Preferred Units or Series B Preferred Units.


 


(b)          If
the General Partner, any Affiliate of the General Partner or the Partnership elects to exercise the right to purchase Limited Partner
Interests granted pursuant to Section 15.1(a), the General Partner shall deliver to the Transfer Agent notice of such election
to purchase (the “Notice of Election to Purchase”) and shall cause the Transfer Agent to mail a copy of such
Notice of Election to Purchase to the Record Holders of Limited Partner Interests of such class (as of a Record Date selected by
the General Partner) at least 10, but not more than 60, days prior to the Purchase Date. Such Notice of Election to Purchase shall
also be published for a period of at least three consecutive days in at least two daily newspapers of general circulation printed
in the English language and published in the Borough of Manhattan, New York. The Notice of Election to Purchase shall specify the
Purchase Date and the price (determined in accordance with Section 15.1(a)) at which Limited Partner Interests will be purchased
and state that the General Partner, its Affiliate or the Partnership, as the case may be, elects to purchase such Limited Partner
Interests, upon surrender of Certificates representing such Limited Partner Interests in exchange for payment, at such office or
offices of the Transfer Agent as the Transfer Agent may specify, or as may be required by any National Securities Exchange on which
such Limited Partner Interests are listed. Any such Notice of Election to Purchase mailed to a Record Holder of Limited Partner
Interests at his address as reflected in the records of the Transfer Agent shall be conclusively presumed to have been given regardless
of whether the owner receives such notice. On or prior to the Purchase Date, the General Partner, its Affiliate or the Partnership,
as the case may be, shall deposit with the Transfer Agent cash in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate purchase price of all
of such Limited Partner Interests to be purchased in accordance with this Section 15.1. If the Notice of Election to Purchase shall
have been duly given as aforesaid at least 10 days prior to the Purchase Date, and if on or prior to the Purchase Date the deposit
described in the preceding sentence has been made for the benefit of the holders of Limited Partner Interests subject to purchase
as provided herein, then from and after the Purchase Date, notwithstanding that any Certificate shall not have been surrendered
for purchase, all rights of the holders of such Limited Partner Interests (including any rights pursuant to Articles IV, V, VI,
and XII) shall thereupon cease, except the right to receive the purchase price (determined in accordance with Section 15.1(a))
for Limited Partner Interests therefor, without interest, upon surrender to the Transfer Agent of the Certificates representing
such Limited Partner Interests, and such Limited Partner Interests shall thereupon be deemed to be transferred to the General Partner,
its Affiliate or the Partnership, as the case may be, on the record books of the Transfer Agent and the Partnership, and the General
Partner or any Affiliate of the General Partner, or the Partnership, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be the owner of all
such Limited Partner Interests from and after the Purchase Date and shall have all rights as the owner of such Limited Partner
Interests (including all rights as owner of such Limited Partner Interests pursuant to Articles IV, V, VI and XII).


 




    	89



    	 



    

 


(c)          At
any time from and after the Purchase Date, a holder of an Outstanding Limited Partner Interest subject to purchase as provided
in this Section 15.1 may surrender his Certificate evidencing such Limited Partner Interest to the Transfer Agent in exchange for
payment of the amount described in Section 15.1(a), therefor, without interest thereon.


 


Article
XVI

SERIES A CUMULATIVE REDEEMABLE PERPETUAL PREFERRED UNITS


 


Section 16.1         Designation.
A series of Preferred Units to be known as “8.25% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units,” is
hereby designated and created. Article XVI of this Agreement fixes the preferences, rights, powers and duties of the Series A Holders
and the Series A Preferred Units. Each Series A Preferred Unit shall be identical in all respects to every other Series A
Preferred Unit, except as to the respective dates from which the Series A Liquidation Preference shall increase or from which
Series A Distributions may begin accruing, to the extent such dates may differ. Each Series A Preferred Unit represents
a perpetual equity interest in the Partnership and shall not give rise to a claim by the holder thereof for redemption at any particular
date.


 


Section 16.2         Units.


 


(a)          The
authorized number of Series A Preferred Units shall be unlimited. The Partnership shall issue 7,000,000 Series A Preferred
Units on the Series A Original Issue Date, and it may issue up to 1,000,000 additional Series A Preferred Units on or after such
date pursuant to the option granted to the underwriters by the Partnership. Any Series A Preferred Units that are redeemed,
purchased or otherwise acquired by the Partnership shall be cancelled.


 


(b)          The
Series A Preferred Units shall be initially represented by a single Certificate registered in the name of the Depositary or
its nominee, and no Series A Holder shall be entitled to receive a Certificate evidencing Series A Preferred Units, unless
otherwise required by law or the Depositary gives notice of its intention to resign or is no longer eligible to act as such and
the Partnership shall have not selected a substitute Depositary within sixty (60) calendar days thereafter. So long as the
Depositary shall have been appointed and is serving, payments and communications made by the Partnership to Series A Holders
shall be made by making payments to, and communicating with, the Depositary.


 




    	90



    	 



    

 


Section 16.3         Distributions.


 


(a)          Distributions
on each Series A Preferred Unit shall be cumulative and shall accrue at the Series A Distribution Rate from the Series A Original
Issue Date (or, for any subsequently issued and newly Outstanding Series A Preferred Units, from the Series A Distribution Payment
Date immediately preceding the issuance date of such Units) until such time as the Partnership pays the Series A Distribution or
redeems the Series A Preferred Units in full in accordance with Section 16.6 below, whether or not such Series A Distributions
shall have been declared, and distributions shall accrue on the amount of Series A Distributions in Arrears at the Series A Distribution
Rate. Subject to the Delaware Act, Series A Holders shall be entitled to receive Series A Distributions from time to time at the
Series A Distribution Rate per Series A Preferred Unit, when, as, and if declared by the General Partner. Distributions, to the
extent declared by the General Partner to be paid by the Partnership in accordance with this Section 16.3, shall be paid monthly
(except in the case of the initial payment) on each Series A Distribution Payment Date. If any Series A Distribution Payment Date
otherwise would occur on a date that is not a Business Day, declared Series A Distributions shall be paid on the immediately succeeding
Business Day without the accumulation of additional distributions. Series A Distributions shall be payable based on a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months. All Series A Distributions payable by the Partnership pursuant to this Section 16.3 shall be
payable without regard to income of the Partnership and shall be treated for federal income tax purposes as guaranteed payments
for the use of capital under Section 707(c) of the Code.


 


(b)          Not
later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Series A Distribution Payment Date, the Partnership shall pay those Series A
Distributions, if any, that shall have been declared by the General Partner to Series A Holders on the Record Date for the applicable
Series A Distribution. The Record Date (the “Series A Distribution Record Date”) for any Series A Distribution
payment shall be as of the opening of the National Securities Exchange on which the Series A Preferred Units are listed or admitted
to trading on the first Business Day of each Month immediately preceding the applicable Series A Distribution Payment Date, except
that in the case of payments of Series A Distributions in Arrears, the Series A Distribution Record Date with respect to a Series
A Distribution Payment Date shall be such date as may be designated by the General Partner in accordance with this Article XVI.
No distribution shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment on any Junior Securities (other than a distribution payable
solely in Junior Securities) unless full cumulative distributions have been or contemporaneously are being paid or provided for
on all Outstanding Series A Preferred Units and any Parity Securities through the most recent respective distribution payment dates.
Accumulated Series A Distributions in Arrears for any past Series A Distribution Period may be declared by the General Partner
and paid on any date fixed by the General Partner, whether or not a Series A Distribution Payment Date, to Series A Holders on
the record date for such payment, which may not be less than 10 days before such payment date. Subject to the next succeeding sentence,
if all accumulated distributions in Arrears on all Outstanding Series A Preferred Units and any Parity Securities shall not have
been declared and paid, or if sufficient funds for the payment thereof shall not have been set apart, payment of accumulated distributions
in Arrears on the Series A Preferred Units and any such Parity Securities shall be made in order of their respective distribution
payment dates, commencing with the earliest. If less than all distributions payable with respect to all Series A Preferred Units
and any Parity Securities are paid, any partial payment shall be made Pro Rata with respect to the Series A Preferred Units and
any Parity Securities entitled to a distribution payment at such time in proportion to the aggregate distribution amounts remaining
due in respect of such Series A Preferred Units and Parity Securities at such time. Subject to Sections 12.4 and 16.6, Series A
Holders shall not be entitled to any distribution, whether payable in cash, property or equity interests, in excess of full cumulative
Series A Distributions. Except insofar as distributions accrue on the amount of any Series A Distributions in Arrears as described
in Section 16.3(a), no interest or sum of money in lieu of interest shall be payable in respect of any distribution payment which
may be in Arrears on the Series A Preferred Units. So long as the Series A Preferred Units are held of record by the nominee of
the Depositary, declared Series A Distributions shall be paid to the Depositary in same-day funds on each Series A Distribution
Payment Date or other interest payment date in the case of payments for Series A Distributions in Arrears.

Section 16.4         Change
of Control.


 


(a)          In
connection with any Change of Control after the Series A Original Issue Date, if the Partnership does not elect to redeem all of
the Outstanding Series A Preferred Units prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date through the redemption provision contained
in Section 16.6 of this Agreement, the Partnership will give notice to the Series A Holders and make an irrevocable written offer
(a “Series A Change of Control Offer”) to each Series A Holder to convert some or all of the Series A Preferred
Units held by such Series A Holder on the Change of Control Conversion Date into a number of Common Units per Series A Preferred
Units that is an amount equal to the Series A Conversion Ratio.


 


(b)          Subject
to Section 5.5, the Series A Conversion Ratio shall be calculated as the lesser of either: (i) the quotient obtained by dividing
(x) the Series A Liquidation Preference as of the Change of Control Conversion Date (unless the Change of Control Conversion
Date is after a Series A Distribution Record Date and prior to the corresponding Series A Distribution Payment Date, in which case
any accrued and unpaid distribution will be excluded from this amount) by (y) the Common Unit Price, or (ii) 2.46548
(the “Unit Cap”). The General Partner shall make such adjustments to the Common Unit Price and the Unit Cap
as it determines to be equitable in view of any splits, combinations or distributions in the form of equity issuances or the payment
of any alternative consideration to the holders of the Common Units in connection with the Change of Control.


 


(c)          Each
Series A Holder electing to participate in the Series A Change of Control Offer will be required prior to the close of business
on the third (3rd) Business Day preceding the Change of Control Conversion Date, to notify the Partnership of the number of
Series A Preferred Units to be converted in the Series A Change of Control Offer and otherwise to comply with any applicable procedures
of the Depositary for effecting the conversion.


 




    	92



    	 



    

 


(d)          Upon
conversion, the rights of such participating Series A Holder as a holder of the Series A Preferred Units shall cease with respect
to such converted Series A Preferred Units, and such Person shall continue to be a Partner and have the rights of a holder of Common
Units under this Agreement. Each Series A Preferred Unit shall, upon its Change of Control Conversion Date, be deemed to be transferred
to, and cancelled by, the Partnership in exchange for the issuance of the Conversion Common Unit.


 


(e)          The
Partnership shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or duties relating to the issuance or delivery
of Conversion Common Units. However, the participating Series A Holder shall pay any tax or duty which may be payable relating
to any transfer involving the issuance or delivery of Conversion Common Units in a name other than such Series A Holder’s
name. The Transfer Agent may refuse to reflect the notation of book entry (or the issuance of a Certificate) for Common Units being
issued in a name other than the Series A Holder’s name until the Transfer Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax
or duties which will be due because the Common Units are to be issued in a name other than the Series A Holder’s name. Nothing
herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by law or regulation.


 


(f)          The
Partnership shall comply with all applicable securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of any Conversion Common Units and,
if the Common Units are then listed or quoted on a National Securities Exchange or other market, shall list or cause to have quoted
and keep listed and quoted the Conversion Common Units to the extent permitted or required by the rules of such exchange or market.


 


(g)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, nothing herein shall give to any Series A Holder any rights as a creditor in respect of its right
to conversion.


 


Section 16.5         Voting
Rights.


 


(a)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Series A Preferred Units shall have no voting rights except as set forth in
this Section 16.5 or as otherwise required by the Delaware Act.


 


(b)          (i) Unless
the Partnership shall have received the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the Outstanding Series A
Preferred Units, voting as a single class, no amendment to this Agreement shall be adopted that would have a material adverse effect
on the existing terms of the Series A Preferred Units.


 


(ii)         Unless
the Partnership shall have received the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the Outstanding Series A
Preferred Units, voting as a single class together with holders of any other Parity Securities upon which like voting rights have
been conferred and are exercisable, the Partnership shall not (x) create or issue any Parity Securities if the cumulative
distributions payable on Outstanding Series A Preferred Units are in Arrears or (y) create or issue any Senior Securities.


 


(c)          For
any matter described in this Section 16.5 in which the Series A Holders are entitled to vote as a class (whether separately
or together with the holders of any Parity Securities), such Series A Holders shall be entitled to one vote per Series A
Preferred Unit. Any Series A Preferred Units held by any of the Partnership’s subsidiaries or Affiliates shall not be
entitled to vote.


 




    	93



    	 



    

 


Section 16.6         Optional
Redemption. The General Partner shall have the right at any time, and from time to time, on or after May 15, 2019 or upon
the occurrence of a Change of Control within 120 days after the first date on which such Change of Control occurred, to cause the
Partnership to redeem the Series A Preferred Units, in whole or in part, from any source of funds legally available for such
purpose; provided, however, that any cash payment upon a Change of Control shall not be made unless (i) the Partnership has
completed any required change of control offers for its outstanding 2020 Notes pursuant to the 2020 Notes Indenture and its outstanding
2022 Notes pursuant to the 2022 Notes Indenture, and (ii) such payment would be permitted under the restricted payments covenant
contained in each such indenture. Additionally, any cash payment to Series A Holders shall be subject to the limitations contained
in the indentures governing any future issuances of senior notes by the Partnership, in its bank credit facility and in any other
agreements governing its indebtedness. Any such redemption shall occur on a date set by the General Partner (the “Series A
Redemption Date”).


 


(a)          Subject
to the Delaware Act, the Partnership shall effect any such redemption by paying cash for each Series A Preferred Unit to be
redeemed equal to the Series A Liquidation Preference for such Series A Preferred Unit on such Series A Redemption
Date (the “Series A Redemption Price”). So long as the Series A Preferred Units are held of record
by the Depositary, the Series A Redemption Price shall be paid by the Paying Agent to the Depositary on the Series A
Redemption Date.


 


(b)          The
Partnership shall give notice of any redemption not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days before the scheduled Series A
Redemption Date, to the Series A Holders (as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day next preceding the day on
which notice is given) of any Series A Preferred Units to be redeemed as such Series A Holders’ names appear on
the books of the Transfer Agent and at the address of such Series A Holders shown therein. Such notice (the “Series A
Redemption Notice”) shall state: (i) the Series A Redemption Date, (ii) the number of Series A Preferred
Units to be redeemed and, if less than all Outstanding Series A Preferred Units are to be redeemed, the number (and, in the
case of Units in certificated form, the identification) of Units to be redeemed from such Series A Holder, (iii) the
Series A Redemption Price, (iv) the place where any Series A Preferred Units in certificated form are to be redeemed
and shall be presented and surrendered for payment of the Series A Redemption Price therefor and (v) that distributions
on the Units to be redeemed shall cease to accumulate from and after such Series A Redemption Date.


 


(c)          If
the Partnership elects to redeem less than all of the Outstanding Series A Preferred Units, the number of Series A Preferred
Units to be redeemed shall be determined by the General Partner, and such Series A Preferred Units shall be redeemed by such
method of selection as the Depositary shall determine either Pro Rata or by lot, with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional
Series A Preferred Units. The aggregate Series A Redemption Price for any such partial redemption of the Outstanding
Series A Preferred Units shall be allocated correspondingly among the redeemed Series A Preferred Units. The Series A
Preferred Units not redeemed shall remain Outstanding and entitled to all the rights and preferences provided in this Article XVI.


 




    	94



    	 



    

 


(d)          If
the Partnership gives or causes to be given a Series A Redemption Notice, the Partnership shall deposit with the Paying Agent
funds sufficient to redeem the Series A Preferred Units as to which such Series A Redemption Notice shall have been given,
no later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Series A Redemption Date, and shall give the Paying Agent irrevocable
instructions and authority to pay the Series A Redemption Price to the Series A Holders to be redeemed upon surrender
or deemed surrender (which shall occur automatically if the Certificate representing such Series A Preferred Units is issued
in the name of the Depositary or its nominee) of the Certificates therefor as set forth in the Series A Redemption Notice.
If the Series A Redemption Notice shall have been given, from and after the Series A Redemption Date, unless the Partnership
defaults in providing funds sufficient for such redemption at the time and place specified for payment pursuant to the Series A
Redemption Notice, all Series A Distributions on such Series A Preferred Units to be redeemed shall cease to accumulate
and all rights of holders of such Series A Preferred Units with respect to such Series A Preferred Units shall cease,
except the right to receive the Series A Redemption Price, including any amount equal to accumulated and unpaid distributions
to the Series A Redemption Date (whether or not declared), and such Series A Preferred Units shall not thereafter be transferred
on the books of the Transfer Agent or be deemed to be Outstanding for any purpose whatsoever. The Partnership shall be entitled
to receive from the Paying Agent the interest income, if any, earned on such funds deposited with the Paying Agent (to the extent
that such interest income is not required to pay the Series A Redemption Price of the Series A Preferred Units to be
redeemed), and the holders of any Series A Preferred Units so redeemed shall have no claim to any such interest income. Any
funds deposited with the Paying Agent hereunder by the Partnership for any reason, including redemption of Series A Preferred
Units, that remain unclaimed or unpaid after two years after the applicable Series A Redemption Date or other payment date,
shall be, to the extent permitted by law, repaid to the Partnership upon its written request, after which repayment the Series A
Holders entitled to such redemption or other payment shall have recourse only to the Partnership. Notwithstanding any Series A
Redemption Notice, there shall be no redemption of any Series A Preferred Units called for redemption until funds sufficient
to pay the full Series A Redemption Price of such Series A Preferred Units shall have been deposited by the Partnership
with the Paying Agent.


 


(e)          Any
Series A Preferred Units that are redeemed or otherwise acquired by the Partnership shall be canceled. If only a portion of
the Series A Preferred Units represented by a Certificate shall have been called for redemption, upon surrender of the Certificate
to the Paying Agent (which shall occur automatically if the Certificate representing such Series A Preferred Units is registered
in the name of the Depositary or its nominee), the Partnership shall issue and the Paying Agent shall deliver to the Series A
Holders a new Certificate (or adjust the applicable book-entry account) representing the number of Series A Preferred Units
represented by the surrendered Certificate that have not been called for redemption.


 


(f)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Article XVI, unless full cumulative distributions have been or contemporaneously are being
paid or provided for on all Outstanding Series A Preferred Units and any Parity Securities to the most recent respective distribution
payment dates, neither the Partnership nor any Affiliate of the Partnership shall be permitted to repurchase, redeem or otherwise
acquire, in whole or in part, any Series A Preferred Units or Parity Securities except pursuant to a purchase or exchange
offer made on the same relative terms to all holders of Series A Preferred Units and any Parity Securities. Neither the Partnership,
nor any Affiliate of the Partnership shall be permitted to redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire any Common Units or any other
Junior Securities unless full cumulative distributions have been or contemporaneously are being paid or provided for on all Outstanding
Series A Preferred Units and any Parity Securities to the most recent respective distribution payment dates.


 




    	95



    	 



    

 


Section 16.7         No
Sinking Fund. The Series A Preferred Units shall not have the benefit of any sinking fund.


 


Section 16.8         Record
Holders. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Partnership, the Transfer Agent and the Paying Agent may deem
and treat any Series A Holder as the true, lawful and absolute owner of the applicable Series A Preferred Units for all
purposes, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, neither the Partnership, the Transfer Agent nor the Paying Agent shall be
affected by any notice to the contrary.


 


Section 16.9         Notices.
All notices or other communications in respect of the Series A Preferred Units shall be sufficiently given (i) if given
in writing in the English language and either delivered in person or sent by first class mail, postage prepaid, or (ii) if
given in such other manner as may be permitted in this Article XVI, this Agreement or by applicable law. Any notice or other communication
given to a holder of a Series A Preferred Unit in book-entry form shall be given in the manner prescribed by the Depositary, notwithstanding
any contrary indication herein.


 


Section 16.10         Other
Rights. The Series A Preferred Units shall not have any voting powers, preferences or relative, participating, optional
or other special rights, or qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, other than as set forth in this Article XVI
or as required by applicable law.


 


Article
XVII

SERIES B PERPETUAL CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED UNITS


 


Section 17.1         Designation.
A series of Preferred Units to be known as “Series B Perpetual Convertible Preferred Units,” including any PIK
Units issued pursuant to Section 17.3, is hereby designated and created. Article XVII of this Agreement fixes the preferences,
rights, powers and duties of the Series B Holders and the Series B Preferred Units. Each Series B Preferred Unit shall be
identical in all respects to every other Series B Preferred Unit, except as to the respective dates from which the Series B
Liquidation Preference shall increase or from which Series B Distributions may begin accruing, to the extent such dates may
differ. Each Series B Preferred Unit represents a perpetual equity interest in the Partnership and shall not give rise to
a claim by the holder thereof for redemption or conversion at any particular date, unless converted by any Series B Holder or the
Partnership pursuant to Section 17.3(c), 17.4 or Section 17.6.


 


Section 17.2         Units.


 


(a)          The
authorized number of Series B Preferred Units shall be unlimited. The Partnership shall issue 46,666,666 Series B Preferred
Units on the Series B Original Issue Date. Any Series B Preferred Units that are redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired
by the Partnership shall be cancelled. Other than with respect to PIK Units, the class of Series B Preferred Units shall be closed
immediately following the Series B Original Issue Date and thereafter no additional Series B Preferred Units shall be designated,
created or issued without the affirmative vote required in Section 17.5(b).

(b)          The
Series B Preferred Units shall be initially represented by direct registration with the Partnership’s transfer agent.
When the Series B Preferred Units are subsequently deposited with the Depository, they shall be represented by a single Certificate
registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, and no Series B Holder shall be entitled to receive a Certificate
evidencing Series B Preferred Units, unless otherwise required by law or the Depositary gives notice of its intention to resign
or is no longer eligible to act as such and the Partnership shall have not selected a substitute Depositary within sixty (60) calendar
days thereafter. So long as the Depositary shall have been appointed and is serving, payments and communications made by the Partnership
to Series B Holders shall be made by making payments to, and communicating with, the Depositary.


 


Section 17.3         Distributions.


 


(a)          Distributions
on each Series B Preferred Unit shall be cumulative and shall accrue at the Series B Distribution Rate from the Series B Original
Issue Date (or, (a) for any PIK Units, from the Series B Distribution Payment Date immediately preceding the issuance date of such
Units and (b) for any Series B Preferred Units issued after the Series B Original Issue Date (other than PIK Units), from the date
of issuance of such Series B Preferred Units) until such time as the Partnership pays the Series B Distributions or the Series
B Preferred Units are converted to Common Units in full in accordance with Section 17.3(c), 17.4 or Section 17.6, whether or not
such Series B Distributions shall have been declared, and distributions shall accrue on the amount of Series B Distributions in
Arrears at the Series B Distribution Rate. Subject to the Delaware Act, Series B Holders shall be entitled to receive Series B
Distributions from time to time at the Series B Distribution Rate per Series B Preferred Unit, when, as, and if declared by the
General Partner. Distributions, when, as and if declared by the General Partner to be paid by the Partnership in accordance with
this Section 17.3, shall be paid monthly (except in the case of the initial payment) on each Series B Distribution Payment Date.
Series B Distributions shall be payable based on a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. All Series B Distributions
payable by the Partnership pursuant to this Section 17.3 shall be payable without regard to income of the Partnership and shall
be treated for federal income tax purposes as guaranteed payments for the use of capital under Section 707(c) of the Code.


 




    	97



    	 



    

 


(b)          Not
later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Series B Distribution Payment Date, the Partnership shall pay those Series B
Distributions, if any, that shall have been declared by the General Partner to Series B Holders on the Record Date for the applicable
Series B Distribution. The Record Date (the “Series B Distribution Record Date”) for any Series B Distribution
payment shall be as of the closing of the National Securities Exchange on which the Common Units are listed or admitted to trading
on the last Business Day of each month immediately preceding the applicable Series B Distribution Payment Date, except that in
the case of payments of Series B Distributions in Arrears, the Series B Distribution Record Date with respect to a Series B Distribution
Payment Date shall be such date as may be designated by the General Partner in accordance with this Article XVII. No distribution
shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment on any Junior Securities (other than a distribution payable solely in Junior
Securities or cash in lieu of fractional Junior Securities) unless full cumulative distributions have been or contemporaneously
are being paid or provided for on all Outstanding Series B Preferred Units and any Parity Securities (including any Outstanding
Series A Preferred Units) through the most recent respective distribution payment dates. Accumulated Series B Distributions in
Arrears for any past Series B Distribution Period may be declared by the General Partner and paid on any date fixed by the General
Partner, whether or not a Series B Distribution Payment Date, to Series B Holders on the Record Date for such payment, which may
not be less than 10 days before such payment date. Subject to the next succeeding sentence, if all accumulated distributions in
Arrears on all Outstanding Series B Preferred Units and any Parity Securities (including any Outstanding Series A Preferred Units)
shall not have been declared and paid, or if sufficient funds for the payment thereof shall not have been set apart, payment of
accumulated distributions in Arrears on the Series B Preferred Units and any such Parity Securities (including any Outstanding
Series A Preferred Units) shall be made in order of their respective distribution payment dates, commencing with the earliest.
If less than all distributions payable with respect to all Series B Preferred Units and any Parity Securities (including any Outstanding
Series A Preferred Units) are paid, any partial payment shall be made Pro Rata with respect to the Series B Preferred Units and
any Parity Securities (including any Outstanding Series A Preferred Units) entitled to a distribution payment at such time in proportion
to the aggregate distribution amounts remaining due in respect of such Series B Preferred Units and Parity Securities (including
any Outstanding Series A Preferred Units) at such time. Subject to Sections 12.4 and 17.6, Series B Holders shall not be entitled
to any distribution, whether payable in cash, property or equity interests, in excess of full cumulative Series B Distributions.
Except insofar as distributions accrue on the amount of any Series B Distributions in Arrears as described in Section 17.3(a),
no interest or sum of money in lieu of interest shall be payable in respect of any distribution payment which may be in Arrears
on the Series B Preferred Units. If and for so long as the Series B Preferred Units are held of record by the nominee of the Depositary,
declared Series B Distributions shall be paid to the Depositary in same-day funds on each Series B Distribution Payment Date or
other interest payment date in the case of payments for Series B Distributions in Arrears.


 


(c)          If
the Partnership elects to pay some or all of a Series B Distribution in PIK Units as permitted in this Agreement, it shall publicly
announce that election on or before the Series B Distribution Record Date for which such election has been made and shall state
in the announcement the amount of PIK Units or combination of cash and PIK Units to be paid per Series B Preferred Unit in connection
with the Series B Distribution. Except as set forth in Section 17.3(c)(i) through (iii), when any PIK Units are payable to a Series
B Holder pursuant to this Section 17.3, the Partnership shall issue the PIK Units to such holder as a distribution in accordance
with Section 17.3(a) (the date of issuance of such PIK Units, the “PIK Payment Date”). On the PIK Payment Date,
the Partnership shall issue to such Series B Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of PIK Units to which such Series
B Holder shall be entitled, or, at the request of the holder, a notation in book entry form in the books of the Transfer Agent,
and all such PIK Units shall, when so issued, be duly authorized, validly issued fully paid and non-assessable Limited Partner
Interests in the Partnership, except as such non-assessability may be affected by Section 17-303,17-607 or 17-804 of the Delaware
Act, and shall be free from preemptive rights and free of any lien, claim, rights or encumbrances, other than those arising under
the Delaware Act or the Partnership Agreement.


 




    	98



    	 



    

 


(i)          In
addition to the conversion rights provided in Section 17.6, a Series B Eligible Holder shall have the right to elect to receive
on the PIK Payment Date, instead of the PIK Units payable to the Series B Eligible Holder (but not instead of any cash payment
that is declared), the number of Common Units into which all the PIK Units payable to that Series B Eligible Holder on that PIK
Payment Date are then convertible. This right must be exercised by delivery of signed, written notice from the Series B Eligible
Holder to the Partnership (or, if the Series B Preferred Units of the Series B Eligible Holder are held of record by the nominee
of the Depository, by complying with the applicable procedures of the Depositary for effecting the election), received no later
than 10 days before the PIK Payment Date setting forth the number of Series B Preferred Units that the Series B Holder holds, certifying
that the Series B Holder is a Series B Eligible Holder, and stating that it elects to receive Common Units instead of the PIK Units
payable on that PIK Payment Date. Such a notice may also specify that it remains in effect for such Series B Eligible Holder with
respect to all future PIK Payment Dates until it is revoked in writing by the Series B Eligible Holder no less than 10 days before
the first PIK Payment Date for which such revocation is to be effective.


 


(ii)         If
such an election is made pursuant to Section 17.3(c)(i), on the applicable PIK Payment Date, the Partnership shall issue to each
validly electing Series B Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of Common Units to which such Series B Holder shall
be entitled instead of PIK Units, or, at the request of the holder, a notation in book entry form in the books of the Transfer
Agent, and all such Common Units shall, when so issued, be duly authorized, validly issued fully paid and non-assessable Limited
Partner Interests in the Partnership, except as such non-assessability may be affected by Section 17-303,17-607 or 17-804 of the
Delaware Act, and shall be free from preemptive rights and free of any lien, claim, rights or encumbrances, other than those arising
under the Delaware Act or the Partnership Agreement. Instead of issuing any fractional Common Unit in lieu of a PIK Unit, all Common
Units to be issued to the Series B Holder shall be aggregated, and the resulting fractional Common Unit (if any) shall be rounded
down to the nearest whole Common Unit and, subject to the Delaware Act, the Partnership shall pay cash in lieu of any fractional
Common Unit not issued because of rounding based on the value of a Common Unit as a portion of then-applicable Series B Issue Price,
taking into account the Series B Conversion Ratio then in effect.


 


(iii)        The
payment of the Common Units in lieu of the PIK units shall be treated as the simultaneous receipt and conversion of the PIK Units
into Common Units and subject to the provisions of Section 17.6(d), (e) and (f), but (for avoidance of doubt) not Section 17.6(c).
Immediately upon any issuance of the Common Units in lieu of PIK Units, all rights of the electing Series B Holder in respect the
PIK Units payable on that PIK Payment Date shall cease, and such electing Series B Holder shall be treated for all purposes as
the owner of Common Units.


 


(d)          For
purposes of maintaining Capital Accounts, if the Partnership issues one or more PIK Units (or Common Units in lieu of PIK Units)
with respect to a Series B Preferred Unit, (i) the Partnership shall be treated as distributing cash with respect to such Series
B Preferred Unit in an amount equal to the Series B Distribution Rate and (ii) the holder of such Series B Preferred Unit shall
be treated as having contributed to the Partnership in exchange for such newly issued PIK Units (or such newly issued Common Units)
an amount of cash equal to the Series B Distribution Rate less the amount of any cash paid by the Partnership in lieu of fractional
PIK Units or fractional Common Units.

Section 17.4         Change
of Control.


 


(a)          In
the event of a Cash COC Event, the Outstanding Series B Preferred Units shall be automatically converted, without requirement of
any action of the Series B Holders, into Common Units immediately prior to the closing of the Cash COC Event at a conversion ratio
equal to the greater of (A) the then applicable Series B Conversion Ratio and (B) the quotient of (i) the product of (a) the Series
B Issue Price, multiplied by (b) the Cash COC Conversion Premium, divided by (ii) the greater of (x) the VWAP for the 10 consecutive
Trading Days ending immediately prior to the date of closing of the Cash COC Event and (y) $0.33, adjusted appropriately for any
subdivisions, splits, combinations, reclassifications or other similar transactions (the “Series B Floor Price”).


 


(b)          If
a Change of Control (other than a Cash COC Event) occurs, then each Series B Holder may, at its sole election:


 


(i)          convert
all, but not less than all, Series B Preferred Units held by such Series B Holder into Common Units, at the then-applicable Series
B Conversion Ratio, subject to payment of any accrued but unpaid distributions to the date of conversion in accordance with Section
17.6(c);


 


(ii)         if
the Partnership is not the surviving entity of such Change of Control, then the Partnership shall use its reasonable best efforts
to deliver or to cause to be delivered to the Series B Holders, in exchange for their Series B Preferred Units upon such Change
of Control, a security in the surviving entity that has substantially similar powers, preferences and special rights as the Series
B Preferred Units, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the right to distributions equal in amount and timing to those provided
in Section 17.3 (a “Substantially Equivalent Unit”); provided, however, that, if such Change of
Control occurs and the Partnership is unable to deliver or cause to be delivered a Substantially Equivalent Unit to any such electing
Series B Holder in connection with such Change of Control, each such Series B Holder shall be entitled to (x) take any action otherwise
permitted by clause (i), (iii) or (iv) of this Section 17.4(b), or (y) convert the Series B Preferred Units held by such Series
B Holder immediately prior to such Change of Control (other than (in the case of clauses (A) and (B) below) any PIK Units, which,
solely with respect to a Change of Control contemplated by this Section 17.4(b)(ii), shall be extinguished for no consideration
upon the closing of such Change of Control) into the number of Common Units that would be issued at the then-applicable Series
B Conversion Ratio multiplied by:


 


(A)         prior
to the third anniversary of the Series B Original Issue Date, the quotient of (a) (i) 160% of the then-applicable Conversion Price
less (ii) the sum of all cash distributions paid as of the effective date of the conversion with respect to the Series B Preferred
Units held by such electing Series B Holder on or prior to the date of the Change of Control, divided by (b) the greater of (i)
0.97 multiplied by the VWAP for the 10 consecutive Trading Days ending immediately prior to the date of the closing of such Change
of Control and (ii) the Series B Floor Price, or


 




    	100



    	 



    

 


(B)         after
the third anniversary of the Series B Original Issue Date, the quotient of (a) (i) 160% multiplied by the then-applicable Conversion
Price plus (ii) accrued and unpaid distributions as of the effective date of the conversion with respect to the Series B Preferred
Units held by such electing Series B Holder less (iii) the sum of all cash distributions paid with respect to the Series B Preferred
Units held by such electing Series B Holder during the first twelve full quarters following the Series B Original Issue Date, divided
by (b) the greater of (i) 0.97 multiplied by the VWAP for the 10 consecutive Trading Days ending immediately prior to the date
of the closing of such Change of Control and (ii) the Series B Floor Price.


 


(iii)        if
the Partnership is the surviving entity of such Change of Control, continue to hold Series B Preferred Units; or


 


(iv)        require
the Partnership to redeem the Series B Preferred Units held by such Series B Holder at a price per Series B Preferred Unit equal
to 101% of the Series B Issue Price plus accrued and unpaid distributions to the date of such redemption with respect to each of
the Series B Preferred Units held by such electing Series B Holder. Any redemption pursuant to this sub-clause (iv) shall, in the
sole discretion of the General Partner, be paid in either cash or a number of Common Units equal to the quotient of (a) the product
of (1) 101% of the Series B Issue Price, multiplied by (2) the number of Series B Preferred Units owned by such Series B Holder
that the Partnership has elected to redeem by payment of Common Units, divided by (b) the product of (x) 0.92 multiplied by (y)
the greater of (1) the VWAP for the 10 consecutive Trading Days ending immediately prior to the date of the closing of such Change
of Control and (2) the Series B Floor Price.


 


(c)          In
connection with any Change of Control (other than a Cash COC Event) after the Series B Original Issue Date, the Partnership will
give notice to the Series B Holders and make an irrevocable written offer (a “Series B Change of Control Offer”)
to convert, receive a Substantially Equivalent Security, continue to hold, or redeem its Series B Preferred Units in accordance
with Section 17.4(b). Each Series B Holder electing to participate in the Series B Change of Control Offer will be required, prior
to the close of business on the third (3rd) Business Day preceding the Change of Control Conversion Date, to notify the Partnership
of the number of Series B Preferred Units to be converted, exchanged for a Substantially Equivalent Security, continued to be held,
or redeemed in the Series B Change of Control Offer and, if the Series B Preferred Units are held of record by the nominee of the
Depository, otherwise to comply with any applicable procedures of the Depositary for effecting the conversion, exchange for a Substantially
Equivalent Security or redemption. Each Series B Holder who fails to timely deliver an election with respect to the Series B Change
of Control Offer will be deemed to have elected to convert all the Series B Preferred Units held by such Series B Holder into Common
Units as provided in Section 17.4(b)(i).


 




    	101



    	 



    

 


(d)          Upon
conversion, the rights of such participating Series B Holder as a holder of the Series B Preferred Units shall cease with respect
to such converted Series B Preferred Units, and such Person shall continue to be a Partner and have the rights of a holder of Common
Units under this Agreement. Each Series B Preferred Unit shall, upon its Change of Control Conversion Date, be deemed to be transferred
to, and cancelled by, the Partnership in exchange for the issuance of the Conversion Common Unit.


 


(e)          The
Partnership shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or duties relating to the issuance or delivery
of Conversion Common Units. However, the participating Series B Holder shall pay any tax or duty which may be payable relating
to any transfer involving the issuance or delivery of Conversion Common Units in a name other than such Series B Holder’s
name. The Transfer Agent may refuse to reflect the notation of book entry (or the issuance of a Certificate) for Common Units being
issued in a name other than the Series B Holder’s name until the Transfer Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax
or duties which will be due because the Common Units are to be issued in a name other than the Series B Holder’s name. Nothing
herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by law or regulation.


 


(f)          All
Common Units delivered upon any conversion or redemption of the Series B Preferred Units in accordance with this Section 17.4 shall
be (1) newly issued and (2) duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Limited Partner Interests in the Partnership,
except as such non-assessability may be affected by Section 17-303,17-607 or 17-804 of the Delaware Act, and shall be free from
preemptive rights and free of any lien, claim, rights or encumbrances, other than those arising under the Delaware Act or this
Agreement.


 


(g)          The
Partnership shall comply with all applicable securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of any Conversion Common Units and,
if the Common Units are then listed or quoted on a National Securities Exchange or other market, shall list or cause to have quoted
and keep listed and quoted the Conversion Common Units to the extent permitted or required by the rules of such exchange or market.


 


(h)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, nothing herein shall give to any Series B Holder any rights as a creditor in respect of its right
to conversion.


 


Section 17.5         Voting
Rights.


 


(a)          In
addition to the voting rights provided in Section 17.5(b) through (c), the Series B Preferred Units shall have voting rights that
are identical to the voting rights of the Common Units and shall vote with the Common Units as a single class, so that each Series
B Preferred Unit will be entitled to one vote for each Common Unit into which such Series B Preferred Units are convertible on
each matter with respect to which each Common Unit is entitled to vote.


 


(b)          Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, in addition to all other requirements imposed by the Delaware Act, and all other voting
rights granted under this Agreement, the affirmative vote or consent of the majority of the Outstanding Series B Preferred Units,
voting separately as a class with one vote per Series B Preferred Unit, shall be necessary for any of the following actions:


 




    	102



    	 



    

 


(i)          amendments
to this Agreement or the Certificate of Limited Partnership of the Partnership that are materially adverse to powers, preferences
or special rights of the Series B Preferred Units;


 


(ii)         other
than PIK Units, issuances of Senior Securities or Parity Securities to the Series B Preferred Units (other than Parity Securities
to the Series B Preferred Units that are substantially similar to the Series A Preferred Units), including the designation, creation
or issuance of additional Series B Preferred Units after the Series B Original Issue Date;


 


(iii)        entering
into any transaction between the Partnership on the one hand, and the General Partner or any of the General Partner’s Affiliates
on the other hand, if such transaction (A) is not in existence on the Series B Original Issue Date (provided, for the avoidance
of doubt, any amendment to any such transaction shall be subject to the terms of this Section 17.5(b)(iii)) or (B) has not been
approved pursuant to Section 7.9(a)(i) or (ii), but in any event excluding any transactions between the Partnership and any of
its Subsidiaries or between or among two or more of the Partnership’s Subsidiaries;


 


(iv)        
adopting or changing tax elections, tax accounting methods or tax reporting positions, in each case if such adoption or change
would disproportionately and adversely affect the Series B Holders (relative to the other Limited Partners) unless the adoption
or change is required by applicable law; and


 


(v)         making
any distribution, other than in accordance with the existing distribution provisions of Section 6.3 or Section 12.4 as in effect
on the Series B Original Issue Date.


 


(c)          Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, in addition to all other requirements imposed by the Delaware Act, and all other voting
rights granted under this Agreement, until the Series B Voting Termination Date, the affirmative vote or consent of the majority
of the Outstanding Series B Preferred Units, voting separately as a class with one vote per Series B Preferred Unit, shall be necessary
for the Partnership’s repurchase of Parity Securities or Junior Securities to the Series B Preferred (other than (i) Parity
Securities or Junior Securities transferred to the Partnership to satisfy some or all of the exercise price or tax withholding
obligations on equity-based awards under the Partnership’s employee benefit plans, (ii) repurchases of Parity Securities
when a similar proportion of the Outstanding Series B Preferred Units are also repurchased or subject to a comparable repurchase
offer, and (iii) the conversion of any Parity Securities or Junior Securities in accordance with their terms into Parity Securities
or Junior Securities).


 


(d)          Any
action that may be taken at a meeting of the Series B Holders may be taken without a meeting if an approval in writing setting
forth the action so taken is signed by Series B Holders owning not less than the minimum percentage of the Outstanding Series B
Preferred Units that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which the requisite minimum percentage
of Series B Preferred Units were present and voted (unless such provision conflicts with any rule, regulation, guideline or requirement
of any National Securities Exchange on which the Units or the Series B Preferred Units are listed or admitted to trading, in which
case the rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of such National Securities Exchange shall govern).

Section 17.6         Conversion
of Series B Preferred Units.


 


(a)          One
or more Series B Holders may elect, each in its own discretion, at any time on or after April 15, 2018, to convert all or any portion
of the Series B Preferred Units held by such electing Series B Holder(s) in an aggregate amount equaling or exceeding the Series
B Minimum Conversion Amount into Common Units, with each Series B Preferred Unit so converted being converted into one Common Unit,
subject to Series B Conversion Ratio Adjustments (as so adjusted, the “Series B Conversion Ratio”), by delivery
of: (A) written notice to the Partnership, in the form set forth as Exhibit D hereto, setting forth the number of Series B Preferred
Units it holds and the number of Series B Preferred Units it is electing to convert, and (B) if such Series B Preferred Units are
Certificated, a Series B Preferred Unit Certificate to the Transfer Agent representing an amount of Series B Preferred Units at
least equal to the amount such Series B Holder is electing to convert (or an instruction letter to the Transfer Agent if the Series
B Preferred Units are in book-entry form). Immediately upon any conversion of the Series B Preferred Units, all rights of the Converting
Unitholder in respect thereof shall cease, including any accrual of distributions, and such Converting Unitholder shall be treated
for all purposes as the owner of Common Units.


 


(b)          At
any time on or after April 15, 2018, the Partnership shall have the option at any time to convert all or part of the Series B Preferred
Units then Outstanding into Common Units at the Series B Conversion Ratio; provided that (i) with respect to Common Units
delivered upon a conversion in accordance with this Section 17.6(b), such Common Units shall be registered for public resale under
the Securities Act, pursuant to an effective registration statement that is then-available for the resale of such Common Units;
and (ii) the daily VWAP of the Common Units on the National Securities Exchange on which the Common Units are listed or admitted
to trading is greater than one hundred sixty percent (160%) of the Conversion Price for 20 Trading Days in the 30 Trading Day period
immediately preceding the date the Partnership furnishes notice to the Series B Holders of the conversion.


 


(c)          The
Partnership shall make a cash payment to any Series B Holder with respect to any Series B Preferred Units converted pursuant to
Sections 17.4(b)(i), 17.6(a) and (b) to account for any accrued but unpaid distributions on such Series B Preferred Units up to,
but excluding, the date of such conversion. Instead of issuing any fractional Common Units, the Partnership shall, after aggregating
all Common Units to be issued to such Series B Holder at that time, round down the number of Common Units issued to each Series
B Holder to the next lower whole Common Unit and, subject to the Delaware Act, pay cash in lieu of any such fractional unit based
on the then-applicable Series B Issue Price.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 17.6 to the contrary, with respect to Series B Preferred Units that are converted into Common Units, the
holder thereof shall not be entitled to a Series B Distribution and a Common Unit distribution with respect to the same period,
but shall be entitled only to the distribution to be paid based upon the class of Units held as of the close of business on the
applicable Record Date, together with all accrued but unpaid distributions on the converted Series B Preferred Units.


 




    	104



    	 



    

 


(e)          Upon
conversion, the rights of a holder of converted Series B Preferred Units as a Series B Holder shall cease with respect to such
converted Series B Preferred Units, including any rights under this Agreement with respect to Series B Holders, and such Person
shall continue to be a Limited Partner and have the rights of a holder of Common Units under this Agreement. Each Series B Preferred
Unit shall, upon its Conversion Date be deemed to be transferred to, and cancelled by, the Partnership in exchange for the issuance
of the Common Units(s) into which such Series B Preferred Unit is converted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a result of a conversion,
a holder shall not lose or relinquish any claims or rights of action such holder may then or thereafter have as a result of such
holder’s previous ownership of Series B Preferred Units.


 


(f)          The
Partnership shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or duties relating to the issuance or delivery
of Common Units upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Units. However, the holder shall pay any tax or duty which may be payable
relating to any transfer involving the issuance or delivery of Common Units in a name other than the holder’s name. The Transfer
Agent may refuse to deliver the Certificate representing Common Units (or notation of book entry) being issued in a name other
than the holder’s name until the Transfer Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax or duties due because the Units
are to be issued in a name other than the holder’s name. Nothing herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by law
or regulation.


 


(g)          The
Partnership shall keep free from preemptive rights a sufficient number of Common Units to permit the conversion of all Outstanding
Series B Preferred Units into Common Units to the extent provided in, and in accordance with this Section 17.6.


 


(h)          All
Common Units delivered upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Units in accordance with this Section 17.6 shall be (1) newly
issued or (2) duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Limited Partner Interests in the Partnership, except
as such non-assessability may be affected by Section 17-303, 17-607 or 17-804 of the Delaware Act, and shall be free from preemptive
rights and free of any lien, claim, rights or encumbrances, other than those arising under the Delaware Act or this Agreement.


 


(i)          The
Partnership shall comply with all applicable securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of any Common Units upon conversion
of Series B Preferred Units and, if the Common Units are then listed or quoted on the New York Stock Exchange or any other National
Securities Exchange or other market shall list or cause to have quoted and keep listed and quoted the Common Units issuable upon
conversion of the Series B Preferred Units to the extent permitted or required by the rules of such exchange or market.


 




    	105



    	 



    

 


(j)          If,
after the Series B Original Issue Date, the Partnership (A) makes a distribution on its Common Units in Common Units, (B) subdivides
or splits its outstanding Common Units into a greater number of Common Units, (C) combines or reclassifies its Common Units into
a smaller number of Common Units or (D) issues by reclassification of its Common Units any Partnership Interests (including any
reclassification in connection with a merger, consolidation or business combination in which the Partnership is the surviving Person),
then the Series B Conversion Ratio in effect at the time of the Record Date for such distribution or of the effective date of such
subdivision, split, combination, or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted (such adjustments referred to as, the “Series
B Conversion Ratio Adjustments”) so that the conversion of the Series B Preferred Units after such time shall entitle
the holder to receive the aggregate number of Common Units (or shares of any Partnership Interests into which such shares of Common
Units would have been combined, consolidated, merged or reclassified pursuant to clauses (C) and (D) above) that such holder would
have been entitled to receive if the Series B Preferred Units had been converted into Common Units immediately prior to such Record
Date or effective date, as the case may be, and in the case of a merger, consolidation or business combination in which the Partnership
is the surviving Person, the Partnership shall provide effective provisions to ensure that the provisions in this Section 17.6
relating to the Series B Preferred Units shall not be abridged or amended and that the Series B Preferred Units shall thereafter

to have been fully satisfied, upon sending of such notice, payment or report to the Record Holder of such Partnership Securities
at his address as shown on the records of the Transfer Agent or as otherwise shown on the records of the Partnership, regardless
of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such Partnership Securities by reason of any assignment or otherwise. An
affidavit or certificate of making of any notice, payment or report in accordance with the provisions of this Section 18.1 executed
by the General Partner, the Transfer Agent or the mailing organization shall be prima facie evidence of the giving or making of
such notice, payment or report. If any notice, payment or report addressed to a Record Holder at the address of such Record Holder
appearing on the books and records of the Transfer Agent or the Partnership is returned by the United States Postal Service marked
to indicate that the United States Postal Service is unable to deliver it, such notice, payment or report and any subsequent notices,
payments and reports shall be deemed to have been duly given or made without further mailing (until such time as such Record Holder
or another Person notifies the Transfer Agent or the Partnership of a change in his address) if they are available for the Partner
or Assignee at the principal office of the Partnership for a period of one year from the date of the giving or making of such notice,
payment or report to the other Partners and Assignees. Any notice to the Partnership shall be deemed given if received by the General
Partner at the principal office of the Partnership designated pursuant to Section 2.3. The General Partner may rely and shall be
protected in relying on any notice or other document from a Partner, Assignee or other Person if believed by it to be genuine.

Section 18.6         Waiver.
No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or
to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute waiver of any such breach of any other covenant,
duty, agreement or condition.


 


Section 18.7         Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which together shall constitute an agreement binding on all the parties
hereto, notwithstanding that all such parties are not signatories to the original or the same counterpart. Each party shall become
bound by this Agreement immediately upon affixing its signature hereto or, in the case of a Person acquiring a Unit, upon accepting

Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard
to the principles of conflicts of law.


 


Section 18.9         Invalidity
of Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected thereby.


 


Section 18.10         Consent
of Partners. Each Partner hereby expressly consents and agrees that, whenever in this Agreement it is specified that an action
may be taken upon the affirmative vote or consent of less than all of the Partners, such action may be so taken upon the concurrence
of less than all of the Partners and each Partner shall be bound by the results of such action.


 


Section 18.11         Facsimile
Signatures. The use of facsimile signatures affixed in the name and on behalf of the Transfer Agent of the Partnership on Certificates
representing either Common Units, Series A Preferred Units or Series B Preferred Units is expressly permitted by this Agreement.

or approval is to be made or given by a Party, such action shall be in such Party’s sole discretion, unless otherwise specified
in this Agreement. If any provision in this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, not binding or unenforceable, (i) such provision
shall be fully severable and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, not binding or unenforceable
provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and
(ii) the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties
as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally
contemplated to the greatest extent possible. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which

be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including
any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection
with this Agreement), will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to
principles of conflicts of laws. Any action against any Party relating to the foregoing shall be brought in any federal or state
court of competent jurisdiction located within the State of Delaware, and the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court located within the State of Delaware over any such action. Each of the

that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such dispute brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient
forum for the maintenance of such dispute. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced
in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.


 


(e)          Waiver
of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES, AND AGREES TO CAUSE ITS AFFILIATES TO WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (i) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT

OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT,
EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE
OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART
OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY.


 


(f)          No
Waiver; Modifications in Writing.


 


(i)          Delay.
No failure or delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof,
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any
remedies that may be available to a Party at law or in equity or otherwise.

(ii)         Specific
Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment, waiver, consent, modification or termination of any provision of
this Agreement shall be effective unless signed by each of the Parties hereto. Any amendment, supplement or modification of or
to any provision of this Agreement, any waiver of any provision of this Agreement and any consent to any departure by a Party
from the terms of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on a Party in
any case shall entitle such Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any investigation
by or on behalf of any Party shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance with any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein.


 


(g)          Execution
in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different Parties hereto in separate

Securities from the Purchaser, other than Affiliates of the Purchaser to the extent required by Section 1(c)(iii). This Agreement
shall terminate on the Standstill Termination Date, except that the provisions of this Section 2 shall survive any termination
of this Agreement and except that no party to this Agreement shall be relieved or released from liability for damages arising
out of a breach of this Agreement before such termination.


 


(i)          Independent
Counsel. Each of the Parties acknowledges that it has been represented by independent counsel of its choice throughout all
negotiations that have preceded the execution of this Agreement and that it has executed the same with consent and upon the advice
of said independent counsel. Each Party and its counsel cooperated in the drafting and preparation of this Agreement and the documents
referred to herein, and any and all drafts relating thereto will be deemed the work product of the Parties and may not be construed

(j)          Specific
Enforcement. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages would not adequately compensate an injured
Party for the breach of this Agreement by any Party, that this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable and that any breach

without a requirement of posting bond. Further, each Party hereto waives any claim or defense that there is an adequate remedy
at law for such breach or threatened breach.


 


(k)          Further
Assurances. Each of the Parties hereto shall, from time to time and without further consideration, execute such further instruments

(c)          Interpretation.
Section references in this Agreement are references to the corresponding Section to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified.
All references to instruments, documents, contracts and agreements are references to such instruments, documents, contracts and
agreements as the same may be amended, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, unless otherwise specified. The word
“including” shall mean “including but not limited to” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement
that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it. Whenever any determination, consent or approval
is to be made or given by a Party, such action shall be in such Party’s sole discretion, unless otherwise specified in this
Agreement. If any provision in this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, not binding or unenforceable, (i) such provision
shall be fully severable and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, not binding or unenforceable
provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and
(ii) the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties
as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally
contemplated to the greatest extent possible. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which
any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period
shall be excluded, and if the last day of such period is a non-Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding
Business Day. Any words imparting the singular number only shall include the plural and vice versa. The words such as “herein,”
“hereinafter,” “hereof” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to
a subdivision in which such words appear unless the context otherwise requires. The division of this Agreement into Sections and
other subdivisions and the insertion of headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect or be utilized in construing
or interpreting this Agreement.


 


(d)          Governing
Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that
may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement
(including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in
connection with this Agreement), will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware
without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action against any Party relating to the foregoing shall be brought in
any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located within the State of Delaware, and the Parties hereto hereby
irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court located within the State of Delaware over
any such action. Each of the Parties agrees (i) that this Agreement involves at least $100,000.00, and (ii) that this
Agreement has been entered into by the Parties in express reliance upon 6 Del. C. § 2708. Each of the Parties hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees (1) that it is and shall continue to be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of
the State of Delaware and of the federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware, and (2)(A) to the extent that such Party is
not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of Delaware, to appoint and maintain an agent in the State of
Delaware as such Party’s agent for acceptance of legal processes and notify the other Parties of the name and address
of such agent, and (B) to the fullest extent permitted by law, that service of process may also be made on such Party by
prepaid certified mail with a proof of mailing receipt validated by the U.S. Postal Service constituting evidence of valid
service, and that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, service made pursuant to (2)(A) or (B) above shall have
the same legal force and effect as if served upon such Party personally within the State of Delaware. Each of the Parties
hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have
to the laying of venue of any such dispute brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of
such dispute. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by
suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

(e)          Waiver
of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES, AND INVESTMENT MANAGER AGREES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (i) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT
OR (ii) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT
OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT,
TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND,
ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN
ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO
THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.


 


(f)          No
Waiver; Modifications in Writing.


 


(i)          Delay.
No failure or delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and are not
exclusive of any remedies that may be available to a Party at law or in equity or otherwise.


 


(ii)         Specific
Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment, waiver, consent, modification or termination of any provision
of this Agreement shall be effective unless signed by each of the Parties hereto. Any amendment, supplement or modification

Party from the terms of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on a
Party in any case shall entitle such Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any
investigation by or on behalf of any Party shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of
compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein.
