Drag-Along Rights. 
 (a) Sale. If the IPT Partners propose to Transfer all (but not less than all) of their respective
Interests (the “Sale”) to an Unrelated Third Party (the “Purchaser”), then the IPT Partners shall have the right to require the Special Limited Partner to Transfer all of the Special Limited Partner’s Interest
to the Purchaser on the same terms and conditions as the IPT Partners receive in the Sale (upon such election, each IPT Partner and the Special Limited Partner shall be deemed a “Selling Partner”); provided, that (i) the
Special Limited Partner shall, contemporaneously with the IPT Partners, receive (A) the same form of consideration received by the IPT Partners in connection with the Sale and (B) its Allocable Portion of the Aggregate Net Consideration
and (ii) if all or any portion of the Special Limited Partner’s Allocable Portion of the Aggregate Net Consideration is not cash or Marketable Securities (“Non-Cash Consideration”), (A) the Special Limited Partner
shall be given the right to participate pro rata in any subsequent transfer by either IPT Partner of any such Non-Cash Consideration and (B) the Special Limited Partner shall receive the benefit of any preemptive or other rights
(including registration rights) that either IPT Partner receives regarding the subsequent transfer of such Non-Cash Consideration or future issuances of Equity Securities by the issuer of such Non-Cash Consideration. 

(b) Consents, Waivers and Other Actions. 

(i) The Special Limited Partner will take all necessary and desirable lawful actions as reasonably directed by the Board in connection with
the consummation of the Sale, including executing the applicable purchase agreement pursuant to which the Special Limited Partner will severally (but not jointly) make representations and warranties concerning solely (x) the beneficial
ownership of the Interests to be sold by the Special Limited Partner, and (y) the Special Limited Partner’s ability to execute such sale contract and necessary ancillary documents and perform the obligations thereunder
(“Fundamental Representations”), and will provide indemnities solely in respect of such Fundamental Representations made by the Special Limited Partner; provided, that if (A) each IPT Partner’s liability arising
under its indemnification or other obligations with respect to its Fundamental Representations is limited to its Pro Rata Share of such liability, then the Special Limited Partner’s liability arising under its indemnification or other
obligations with respect to its Fundamental Representations shall be limited to its Pro Rata Share of such liability and (B) each IPT Partner’s liability arising under its indemnification or other obligations is limited to its Allocable
Portion of the Aggregate Net Consideration, then the Special Limited Partner’s liability arising under its indemnification or other obligations shall in no event exceed the Special Limited Partner’s Allocable Portion of the Aggregate Net
Consideration; provided, further, that the Special Limited Partner shall not be required to enter into any non-compete or non-solicit covenant or similar agreement in connection with the Sale without its consent. The IPT Partners shall
provide written notice (which notice shall include information describing the Sale, including the nature and value of the 

  
 3 








 
consideration to be paid to each Selling Partner, the time of closing, the identity of the Purchaser, and, to the extent the Board determines that the Special Limited Partner’s Pro Rata
Share is reasonably expected to be greater than ten percent (10%), copies of any purchase and sale agreement or letter of intent (in each case, which may be redacted for any sensitive information and need not contain schedules, exhibits, annexes or
similar items) to the extent that such an agreement or letter has been executed) to the Special Limited Partner not less than ten (10) days prior to the closing of the Sale. 

(ii) The Special Limited Partner agrees that, if the Board so requests, the agreements relating to the Sale may provide for indemnity by the
Special Limited Partner in respect of representations and warranties regarding the Partnership, its Subsidiaries and their respective assets, properties, liabilities, operations and businesses not made by the Special Limited Partner, so long as
(A) the sole source for payment of any such indemnity (a “Loss”) will be funds (the amount of which for the Special Limited Partner shall not exceed the Special Limited Partner’s Allocable Portion of the Aggregate Net
Consideration) deposited in escrow for such purpose or otherwise segregated and withheld from the Aggregate Net Consideration otherwise distributed to the Selling Partners, as the Board may determine, (B) any Losses will be borne by the Selling
Partners as described in the first sentence of Section 2(a) as if they were post-closing adjustments, and (C) the Special Limited Partner’s liability arising under any such indemnification shall be several, not joint, and
limited to its Pro Rata Share of such indemnification obligations. 
 (iii) The Special Limited Partner agrees to (A) vote for (to the
extent permitted or required), consent to and raise no objections to the Sale or the process to which the Sale was arranged and (B) waive any dissenter’s rights, appraisal rights and other similar rights. 

(c) Appointment of the IPT Partners as Attorneys-in-Fact. 

(i) Power of Attorney. The Special Limited Partner irrevocably constitutes and appoints each IPT Partner as its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact with full power and authority in the name, place and stead of the Special Limited Partner to execute, acknowledge, deliver, swear to, file and record at the appropriate public offices such documents as may be necessary or
appropriate to carry out the Sale. 
 (ii) Power Coupled With an Interest. The appointment by Special Limited Partner of each IPT
Partner as attorney-in-fact shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest, in recognition of the fact that the Special Limited Partner will be relying upon the power of each IPT Partner to act as contemplated by this Agreement in any filing
and other action by it on behalf of the Special Limited Partner, and shall survive, and not be affected by, the subsequent bankruptcy, death, incapacity, disability, adjudication of incompetence or insanity or dissolution of the Special Limited
Partner hereby giving such power and the transfer or assignment of all or any part of the Special Limited Partner’s Interest; provided, however, that the foregoing power of attorney of each IPT Partner shall survive only until
such time as all required documents and instruments shall have been duly executed, filed and recorded to consummate the Sale. 

  
 4 








 (d) Expenses. Each Selling Partner shall pay its Pro Rata Share of the reasonable expenses
related to the Sale that are approved by the Board and not otherwise paid by the Purchaser or the Partnership; provided, that any expenses that relate exclusively to one of the Selling Partners shall be the sole responsibility of such Selling
Partner.

breach of the provisions of this letter agreement and that any party may in its sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive relief (without posting a bond or other security
and without the need to prove irreparable harm) in order to enforce or prevent any violation of the provisions of this letter agreement. 

8. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM,

(“JAG”) in Denver, Colorado, before a mutually-agreed representative of JAG, in accordance with its commercial mediation rules then in effect, and the parties agree to abide by all awards rendered in such proceedings. The parties
shall attempt to designate one arbitrator from JAG, but if they are unable to do so, then JAG shall designate an arbitrator. Any arbitrator selected by the parties or JAG shall be a qualified person who has experience with complex commercial
disputes. The arbitration shall be final and binding, and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction. All awards may be filed with the clerk of one or more courts, state or federal, having jurisdiction over the party against whom such award
is rendered or its property, as a basis of judgment and of the issuance of execution for its collection.
