result in a Material Adverse Change, and have paid all taxes due with respect to such returns or pursuant to any assessment received by the Partnership Entities, except for such taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which
adequate reserves have been established or where the failure to pay such taxes would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Partnership Entities in respect of any
income tax liability for any years not finally determined are adequate to meet any assessments or reassessments for additional income tax for any years not finally determined, except to the extent of any inadequacy that would not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

 (ii)
Insurance. The Partnership Entities carry or are entitled to the benefits of insurance, with financially sound and reputable insurers, in such amounts and covering such risks as is generally maintained by companies of established
repute engaged in the same or similar business, and all such insurance is in full force and effect. No Partnership Entity has reason to believe that it will not be able (i) to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such policies
expire or (ii) to obtain comparable coverage from similar institutions as may be necessary or appropriate to conduct their business as now conducted and at a cost that would not result in a Material Adverse Change. None of the Partnership
Entities has been denied any insurance coverage which it has sought or for which it has applied. 
 (jj) No Price
Stabilization or Manipulation. The Partnership Parties have not, nor to the knowledge of the Partnership Parties, has any affiliate of the Partnership Parties taken, nor will the Partnership Parties or any of their respective affiliates

Securities.

or indirectly, from paying any dividends to the Obligors, from making any other distribution on such subsidiary’s equity interests, from repaying to the Obligors any loans or advances to such subsidiary from the Obligors or from transferring
any of such subsidiary’s property or assets to the Obligors or any other subsidiary of the Obligors, except as described in or contemplated in the Offering Memorandum. 

(ll) Solvency. The Partnership Entities, considered as one enterprise, are, and immediately after the Closing

change in the Partnership Entities’ internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership Entities’ internal control over financial reporting. 

(nn) Regulations T, U or X. None of the Partnership Entities or any agent thereof acting on their behalf has
taken, and none of them will take, any action that might cause this Agreement or the issuance or sale of the Securities to violate Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 

(oo) Compliance with and Liability Under Environmental Laws. Except as disclosed in the Offering Memorandum or as
would not, singly or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, (i) none of the Partnership Entities are in violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, law, rule, regulation, ordinance, code
or rule of common law or any judicial or administrative interpretation thereof, including any judicial or administrative order, consent, decree or judgment, relating to pollution or protection of human health, the environment (including, without
limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata) or natural resources such as flora, fauna and wetlands, including, without limitation, laws and regulations relating to the Release or threatened Release of
chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, wastes, toxic substances, hazardous substances, petroleum or petroleum products, natural gas, natural gas liquids, radioactive materials, asbestos-containing materials or

cleanup or remediation, or an action, suit, claim or proceeding by any private party or Governmental Entity, against or affecting the Partnership Entities relating to Hazardous Materials or any Environmental Laws. The term
“Release” means any release, spill, emission, discharge, deposit, disposal, leaking, pumping, pouring, dumping, emptying, injection or leaching into the environment, or into, from or through any structure or facility.

 (pp) ERISA Compliance. Except as would not reasonably be

qualified under Section 401 of the Code has timely applied for or received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service and, to the knowledge of the Partnership Parties, nothing has occurred, whether by action or failure to act,
which is likely to cause the loss of such qualification. “ERISA Affiliate” means, with respect to any of the Partnership Entities, any member of any group of organizations described in Section 414 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 (as amended, the “Code,” which term, as used herein, includes the regulations and published interpretations thereunder) of which any of the Partnership Entities is a member.

to the knowledge of the Partnership Parties, is imminent, and the Partnership Parties are not aware of any existing or imminent labor disturbance by the employees of any of their or any subsidiary’s principal suppliers, manufacturers, customers
or contractors, which, in either case, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. 
 (rr) No
Unlawful Payments. None of the Partnership Entities, or any director, officer or employee of any of the Partnership Entities, and, to the knowledge of the Partnership Parties, no agents, affiliates or other persons associated with or acting

or authorization of the payment of any money, or other property, gift, promise to give, or authorization of the giving of anything of value to any “foreign official” (as such term is defined in the FCPA) or any foreign political party or
official thereof or any candidate for foreign political office, in contravention of the FCPA, or of any person in violation of any other applicable anti-corruption laws; or (iv) made, offered, agreed, requested or taken an act in furtherance of

knowledge of the Partnership Parties, threatened. 
 (tt) No Conflicts with Sanctions Laws. None of the
Partnership Entities, or any of their directors, officers or employees, and, to the knowledge of the Partnership Parties, no agents, affiliates or other persons associated with or acting on behalf of the Partnership Entities are currently the
subject or the target of any sanctions administered or enforced by the U.S. government, (including, without limitation, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the U.S. Department of State and including,
without limitation, the designation as a “specially designated national” or “blocked person”), the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Her Majesty’s Treasury, or other relevant sanctions authority

(d) Initial Purchasers as Qualified Institutional Buyers. Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly,
represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Issuer that:

modified only by the information included in the Pricing Supplement. The Issuer will not amend or supplement the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Pricing Supplement. The Issuer will not amend or supplement the Final Offering Memorandum prior
to the Closing Date unless the Representative shall previously have been furnished a copy of the proposed amendment or supplement at least two business days prior to the proposed use or filing, and shall not have objected to such amendment or

make, prepare, use, authorize, approve or distribute any such written communication to which the Representative reasonably objects. 

  
 17 

 (b) Amendments and Supplements to the Final Offering Memorandum and
Other Securities Act Matters. If at any time prior to the Closing Date (i) any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which any of the Pricing Disclosure Package as then amended or supplemented would include any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (ii) it is necessary to amend or
supplement any of the Pricing Disclosure Package to comply with any applicable law, the Partnership Parties will immediately notify the Initial Purchasers thereof and forthwith prepare and (subject to Section 3(a) hereof)
furnish to the Initial Purchasers such amendments or supplements to any of the Pricing Disclosure Package as may be necessary so that the statements in any of the Pricing Disclosure Package as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, be misleading or so that any of the Pricing Disclosure Package will comply with all applicable law. If, prior to the completion of the placement of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers with the
Subsequent Purchasers, any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Final Offering Memorandum, as then amended or supplemented, in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances when the Final Offering Memorandum is delivered to a Subsequent Purchaser, not misleading, or if in the judgment of the Representative or counsel for the Representative it is otherwise necessary to amend or supplement the Final
Offering Memorandum to comply with any applicable law, the Partnership Parties agree to promptly prepare (subject to Section 3(a) hereof) and furnish at their own expense to the Initial Purchasers, amendments or supplements
to the Final Offering Memorandum so that the statements in the Final Offering Memorandum as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances at the Closing Date and at the time of sale of the Securities, be misleading or so
that the Final Offering Memorandum, as amended or supplemented, will comply with all applicable law. 
 The Obligors hereby expressly
acknowledge that the indemnification and contribution provisions of Sections 8 and 9 hereof are specifically applicable and relate to the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the
Final Offering Memorandum and any Issuer Additional Written Communication and any such amendments or supplements thereto referred to in this Section 3.

the Initial Purchasers to qualify or register (or to obtain exemptions from qualifying or registering) all or any part of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities laws of the several states of the United States, the provinces of Canada
or any other jurisdictions designated by the Representative, shall comply with such laws and shall continue such qualifications, registrations and exemptions in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Securities. None of the
Partnership Parties shall be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or other form of entity or to take any action that 

  
 18 

 
would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not presently qualified or where it would be subject to taxation as a foreign corporation. The Issuer will
advise the Representative promptly of the suspension of the qualification or registration of (or any such exemption relating to) the Securities for offering, sale or trading in any jurisdiction or any initiation or threat of any proceeding for any
such purpose, and in the event of the issuance of any order suspending such qualification, registration or exemption, each of the Partnership Parties shall use its best efforts to obtain the withdrawal thereof at the earliest possible moment. 

(e) Use of Proceeds. The Issuer shall apply the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes sold by it in the manner
described under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Pricing Disclosure Package.

(g) Additional Issuer Information. At any time when the Issuer is not subject to Section 13 or 15 of the
Exchange Act, for the benefit of holders and beneficial owners from time to time of the Securities, the Issuer shall furnish, at its expense, upon request, to holders and beneficial owners of Securities and prospective purchasers of Securities
information (“Additional Issuer Information”) satisfying the requirements of Rule 144A(d). 
 (h)
Agreement Not To Offer or Sell Additional Securities. During the period of 60 days following the date hereof, the Issuer will not, without the prior written consent of the Representative (which consent may be withheld at the sole
discretion of the Representative), directly or indirectly, issue, sell, offer to contract or grant any option to sell, pledge, transfer or establish an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or announce the offering of, or file any registration statement under the Securities Act in respect of, any debt securities of the Issuer or
securities exchangeable for or convertible into debt securities of the Issuer (other than as contemplated by this Agreement). 

(i) Future Reports to the Initial Purchasers. At any time when Securities remain outstanding, the Issuer will
furnish to the Representative and, upon request, to each of the other Initial Purchasers, copies of all reports and other communications (financial or otherwise) furnished by the Issuer to the Trustee or to the holders of the Securities. 

(j) No Integration. The Issuer agrees that it will not and will cause its Affiliates not to make any offer or
sale of securities of the Issuer or any such Affiliate of any class if, as a result of the doctrine of “integration” referred to in Rule 502 under the Securities Act, such offer or sale would render invalid (for the purpose of (i) the
sale of the Notes by the Issuer to the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers or (iii) the resale of the Securities by such Subsequent Purchasers to others) the exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof or by Rule 144A or by Regulation S thereunder or otherwise. 

  
 19 

 (k) No General Solicitation or Directed Selling Efforts. The
Issuer agrees that it will not and will not permit any of its Affiliates or any other person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to which no covenant is given) to (i) solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the
Securities by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or
(ii) engage in any directed selling efforts with respect to the Securities within the meaning of Regulation S, and the Issuer will and will cause all such persons to comply with the offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S with respect
to the Securities. 
 (l) No Restricted Resales. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its affiliates
(as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) to resell any of the Notes that have been reacquired by any of them. 
 (m)
Legended Securities. Each certificate for a Security will bear the legend contained in “Notice to Investors” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum for the time period and upon the other terms stated in the Preliminary
Offering Memorandum. 
 The Representative, on behalf of the several Initial Purchasers, may, in its sole discretion, waive in writing the
performance by the Partnership Parties of any one or more of the foregoing covenants or extend the time for their performance. 

SECTION 4. Payment of Expenses. Each of the Partnership Parties agree, jointly and severally, to pay all costs, fees and

memoranda and any related supplements to the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum), (vi) the fees and expenses of the Trustee, including the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Trustee in connection with the Indenture
and the Securities, (vii) any fees payable in connection with the rating of the Securities with the ratings agencies, (viii) any filing fees incident to, and any reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Initial Purchasers in
connection with the review by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”), if

accuracy of any of the representations and warranties, or the satisfaction of any of the conditions or agreements, herein contained. 

  
 22 

 If any condition specified in this Section 5 is not satisfied when
and as required to be satisfied, this Agreement may be terminated by the Representative by notice to the Issuer at any time on or prior to the Closing Date, which termination shall be without liability on the part of any party to any other party,
except that Sections 4, 6, 8 and 9 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. 

SECTION 6. Reimbursement of Initial Purchasers’ Expenses. If this Agreement is terminated
by the Representative pursuant to Section 5 or 10 hereof, including if the sale to the Initial Purchasers of the Securities on the Closing Date is not consummated because of any refusal, inability or failure on the
part of the Partnership Parties to perform any agreement herein or to comply with any provision hereof, the Partnership Parties, jointly and severally, agree to reimburse the Initial Purchasers, severally, upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses that shall have been reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchasers in connection with the proposed purchase and the offering and sale of the Securities,
including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel, printing expenses, travel expenses, postage, facsimile and telephone charges. 

SECTION 7. Offer, Sale and Resale Procedures. Each of the Initial Purchasers, on the one hand, and the Partnership Parties,
on the other hand, hereby agree to observe the following procedures in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities: 

(a) Offers and sales of the Securities will be made only by the Initial Purchasers or Affiliates thereof qualified to do so in
the jurisdictions in which such offers or sales are made. Each such offer or sale shall only be made to persons whom the offeror or seller reasonably believes to be Qualified Institutional Buyers or non-U.S.
persons outside the United States to whom the offeror or seller reasonably believes offers and sales of the Securities may be made in reliance upon Regulation S upon the terms and conditions set forth in Annex I hereto, which Annex I
is hereby expressly made a part hereof. 
 (b) No general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of
Rule 502 under the Securities Act) will be used in the United States in connection with the offering of the Securities. 

(c) Upon original issuance by the Issuer and until such time as the same is no longer required under the applicable
requirements of the Securities Act, the Notes (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof) shall bear a legend in substantially the form set forth under “Transfer Restrictions” in the Preliminary Offering
Memorandum. 
 Following the sale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers pursuant to the terms hereof, the
Initial Purchasers shall not be liable or responsible to the Issuer for any losses, damages or liabilities suffered or incurred by the Issuer, including any losses, damages or liabilities under the Securities Act, arising from or relating to any
resale or transfer of any Security. 

  
 23 

 SECTION 8. Indemnification. 

(a) Indemnification of the Initial Purchasers. Each of the Partnership Parties, jointly and severally, agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors, officers and employees, and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act against any loss, claim,
damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which such Initial Purchaser, affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or
regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Issuer and the General Partner), insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or
actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based: (i) upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Issuer
Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or (ii) in whole or in part upon any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Partnership Parties contained herein; or (iii) in whole or in part upon any failure of
the Partnership Parties to perform their obligations hereunder or under law; or (iv) any act or failure to act or any alleged act or failure to act by any Initial Purchaser in connection with, or relating in any manner to, the offering
contemplated hereby, and which is included as part of or referred to in any loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising out of or based upon any matter covered by clause (i) above, provided that the Partnership Parties shall not be
liable under this clause (iv) to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final judgment that such loss, claim, damage, liability or action resulted directly from any such acts or failures to act
undertaken or omitted to be taken by such Initial Purchaser through its gross negligence or willful misconduct; and to reimburse each Initial Purchaser and each such affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person for any and all
expenses (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Representative) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchaser or such affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with
investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply, with respect to an Initial Purchaser, to any loss,
claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent, but only to the extent, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished to the Issuer by such Initial Purchaser through the Representative expressly for use in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Issuer Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any
amendment or supplement thereto). The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Partnership Parties may otherwise have. 

(b) Indemnification of the Partnership Parties. Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to
indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership Parties, each of their respective directors and each person, if any, who controls the Partnership Parties within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any loss, claim, damage,
liability or expense, as incurred, to which the Partnership Parties or any such director or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange 

  
 24 

 
Act, or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of
such Initial Purchaser), insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in
the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Issuer Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission
or alleged omission was made in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Issuer Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Issuer by such Initial Purchaser through the Representative expressly for use therein; and to reimburse the Partnership Parties and each such director or controlling person for any and all expenses
(including the fees and disbursements of counsel) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by the Partnership Parties or such director or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss,
claim, damage, liability, expense or action. Each of the Partnership Parties hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Initial Purchasers through the Representative have furnished to the Issuer expressly for use in the Preliminary
Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Issuer Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in the fourth paragraph, the third and fourth sentence of
the sixth paragraph and the eighth and ninth paragraphs under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Offering Memorandum. The indemnity agreement set forth in this
Section 8(b) shall be in addition to any liabilities that each Initial Purchaser may otherwise have. 

(c) Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the
indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that the failure to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section 8
except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure (through the forfeiture of substantive rights and defenses) and shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that the indemnifying party may have to an
indemnified party other than under this Section 8. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying
party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from
such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party shall have 

  
 25 

 
reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal
defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal
defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of such indemnifying party’s election so to assume
the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof (other than the reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding
sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with local counsel (in each jurisdiction)), which shall be selected by the Representative (in the
case of counsel representing the Initial Purchasers or their related persons), representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified
party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party. 

(d) Settlements. The indemnifying party under this Section 8 shall not be liable for
any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the
indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the
indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this Section 8, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if
(i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request or
disputed in good faith the indemnified party’s entitlement to such reimbursement prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or
consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless
such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include any statements as
to or any findings of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 

  
 26 

 SECTION 9. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in
Section 8 hereof is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each
indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified party, as incurred, as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect the relative benefits received by the Partnership Parties, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause
(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Partnership Parties, on the one
hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits
received by the Partnership Parties, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total
net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer, and the total discount received by the Initial Purchasers bear to the aggregate initial offering price of the Securities.
The relative fault of the Partnership Parties, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or any such inaccurate or alleged inaccurate representation or warranty relates to information supplied by the Partnership Parties, on the one hand, or the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand,
and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission or inaccuracy. 

The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed
to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8 hereof, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The provisions
set forth in Section 8 hereof with respect to notice of commencement of any action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this Section 9; provided, however, that no additional
notice shall be required with respect to any action for which notice has been given under Section 8 hereof for purposes of indemnification. 

The Partnership Parties and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to in this Section 9. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no
Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the discount received by such Initial Purchaser in connection with the Securities distributed by it. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11 of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this
Section 9 are several, and not joint, in proportion to their respective commitments as set forth opposite their names in Schedule A hereto. For purposes of this Section 9, each affiliate,
director, officer and employee of an Initial Purchaser and each person, if any, who controls an Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser, and
each director of the Partnership Parties, and each person, if any, who controls the Partnership Parties with the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Partnership Parties. 

  
 27 

 SECTION 10. Termination of this Agreement. Prior to the Closing Date,
this Agreement may be terminated by the Representative by notice given to the Issuer if at any time: (i) trading in securities generally on either the NASDAQ Stock Market or the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or materially
limited, or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established on any of such quotation system or stock exchange by the Commission or FINRA; (ii) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by any of federal or New York
or state of the Issuer’s formation or incorporation authorities; (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities or any crisis or calamity, or any change in the United States or
international financial markets, or any substantial change or development involving a prospective substantial change in United States’ or international political, financial or economic conditions, as in the judgment of the Representative is
material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities in the manner and on the terms described in the Pricing Disclosure Package or to enforce contracts for the sale of
securities; (iv) in the judgment of the Representative, there shall have occurred any Material Adverse Change; or (v) the Issuer shall have sustained a loss by strike, fire, flood, earthquake, accident or other calamity of such character
as in the judgment of the Representative may interfere materially with the conduct of the business and operations of the Partnership Entities considered as one enterprise regardless of whether or not such loss shall have been insured. Any
termination pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability on the part of (A) the Partnership Parties to any Initial Purchaser, except that the Partnership Parties shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses
of the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Sections 4 and 6 hereof, (B) any Initial Purchaser to the Partnership Parties or (C) any party hereto to any other party except that the provisions of Sections 8 and 9
hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. 
 SECTION 11. Representations and Indemnities to
Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Partnership Parties, their respective officers and the several Initial Purchasers set forth in or made
pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, the Partnership Parties or any of their partners, officers or directors or any controlling person, as the
case may be, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities sold hereunder and any termination of this Agreement.

 SECTION 16. Governing Law Provisions. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM,
CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE WITHOUT REGARD TO
CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF. 
 SECTION 17. Consent to Jurisdiction. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising
out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (“Related Proceedings”) may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York or the
courts of the State of New York in each case located in the City and County of New York (collectively, the “Specified Courts”), and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction (except for suits, actions or
proceedings instituted in regard to the enforcement of a judgment of any Specified Court in a Related Proceeding as to which such jurisdiction is nonexclusive) of the Specified Courts in any Related Proceeding. Service of any process, summons,
notice or document by mail to such party’s address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any Related Proceeding brought in any Specified Court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of
venue of any Related Proceeding in the Specified Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any Specified Court that any Related Proceeding brought in any Specified Court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum. Each party not located in the United States irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System as its agent to receive service of process or other legal summons for purposes of any Related Proceeding that may be instituted in any Specified Court. THE
PARTNERSHIP ENTITIES HEREBY AGREE ON THEIR OWN BEHALF AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ON BEHALF OF THEIR SECURITY HOLDERS, TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM, COUNTER-CLAIM OR ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE OFFERING). 
 SECTION 18.
Default of One or More of the Several Initial Purchasers. If any one or more of the several Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on the Closing Date, and the
aggregate number of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of the Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial
Purchasers shall be obligated, severally, in the proportions that the number of the Securities set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule A hereto bears to the aggregate number of the Securities set forth opposite the names of all
such non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Initial Purchasers with the consent of the non-defaulting Initial
Purchasers, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on the Closing Date. If any one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase the
Securities and the aggregate number of the Securities with respect to which such default occurs exceeds 10% of the aggregate number of the Securities to be purchased on the Closing Date, and arrangements satisfactory to the Initial

  
 30 

 
Purchasers and the Issuer for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability of any party to any other party
except that the provisions of Sections 4, 6, 8 and 9 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case either the Initial Purchasers or the Issuer shall have the right to postpone
the Closing Date, as the case may be, but in no event for longer than seven days in order that the required changes, if any, to the Final Offering Memorandum or any other documents or arrangements may be effected. 

As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” shall be deemed to include any person substituted for a
defaulting Initial Purchaser under this Section 18. Any action taken under this Section 18 shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such
Initial Purchaser under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 19. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. Each of the Partnership
Parties acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Partnership Parties, on the one hand, and the several Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and the Partnership Parties are capable of evaluating and
understanding and understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) in connection with each transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction, each Initial
Purchaser is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Partnership Parties or their respective affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) no Initial Purchaser has assumed
or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Partnership Parties with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Initial Purchaser has advised or is
currently advising the Partnership Parties on other matters) or any other obligation to the Partnership Parties except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (iv) the several Initial Purchasers and their respective affiliates
may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Partnership Parties, and the several Initial Purchasers have no obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any fiduciary or advisory
relationship; and (v) the Initial Purchasers have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby, and the Partnership Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory
and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. 
 This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether
written or oral) between the Partnership Parties and the several Initial Purchasers, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Partnership Parties hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that
the Partnership Parties may have against the several Initial Purchasers with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty. 

SECTION 20. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regime. 

(a) In the event that any Initial Purchaser that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime,
the transfer from such Initial Purchaser of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this
Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. 

  
 31 

 (b) In the event that any Initial Purchaser that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate
of such Initial Purchaser becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Initial Purchaser are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such
Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. 

For the purposes of this Section 20: (i) “BHC Act Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and
shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k); (ii) “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (A) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R.
§ 252.82(b); (B) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (C) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12
C.F.R. § 382.2(b); (iii) “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable; and (iv) “U.S. Special Resolution
Regime” means each of (A) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (B) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder. 

SECTION 21. General Provisions. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement and
supersedes all prior written or oral and all contemporaneous oral agreements, understandings and negotiations with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each one of which shall be an
original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier, facsimile or other electronic transmission (i.e., a
“pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof. This Agreement may not be amended or modified unless in writing by all of the parties hereto, and no condition herein (express or implied)
may be waived unless waived in writing by each party whom the condition is meant to benefit. The section headings herein are for the convenience of the parties only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

Such Initial Purchaser agrees that it has not offered or sold and will not offer or sell the Securities in the United States or to, or for the
benefit or account of, a U.S. Person (other than a distributor), in each case, as defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S (i) as part of its distribution at any time and (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the commencement of the
offering of the Securities pursuant hereto and the Closing Date, other than in accordance with Regulation S or another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Such Initial Purchaser agrees that, during such 40-day restricted period, it will not cause any advertisement with respect to the Securities (including any “tombstone” advertisement) to be published in any newspaper or periodical or posted in any public

or other remuneration a confirmation or notice to substantially the following effect: 
 “The Securities covered hereby have not been
registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be offered and sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (i) as part of your
distribution at any time or (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the date the Securities were first offered to persons other than distributors in reliance upon Regulation S and the Closing Date, except in either case in accordance
with Regulation S under the Securities Act (or in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act or to accredited investors in transactions that are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act), and in connection with any
subsequent sale by you of the Securities covered hereby in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act during the period referred to above to any distributor, dealer or person receiving a selling concession, fee or other remuneration, you must
deliver a notice to substantially the foregoing effect. Terms used above have the meanings assigned to them in Regulation S under the Securities Act.”

 Annex II-3ktc10kex41

1    EXHIBIT 4.1  DESCRIPTION OF THE REGISTRANT’S SECURITIES  REGISTERED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 OF THE  SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934  Key Tronic Corporation (the “Company,” “we” or “our”) has one class of securities registered under  Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934: our common stock (the “Common Stock”). The  following description of our Common Stock is a summary and does not purport to be complete. It  is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to our Restated Articles of Incorporation (the  “Articles of Incorporation”) and our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), which are filed as  exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K and are incorporated by reference herein, and to the  applicable provisions of the Washington Business Corporation Act (“WBCA”), Title 23B of the Revised  Code of Washington.   Authorized Capital Shares  Our authorized capital shares consist of 25,000,000 shares of common stock, no par value per share.   Common Stock  Voting Rights  The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters voted on by the  shareholders, including the election of directors. Our Common Stock does not have cumulative voting  rights.   Dividend Rights  The holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time  to time by our board of directors in its discretion out of funds legally available for the payment of  dividends, subject to the terms of any existing or future agreements between us and our debtholders.  Liquidation Rights  In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of Common Stock  will share ratably in all assets legally available for distribution after payment of all debts and other  liabilities.  No Preemptive Rights  No holder of Common Stock shall have any preemptive right to purchase or subscribe for any part of  any issue of stock or of securities of the Company convertible into stock of any class of securities of the  Company.  Other Rights and Preferences  The holders of Common Stock have no subscription or conversion rights, and our Common Stock has  no sinking fund or redemption rights.  

 

2    Material Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and  Washington Law  Certain provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and of Washington law could have the  effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control or an unsolicited acquisition proposal that a  shareholder might consider favorable.   Authorized but Unissued Shares of Common Stock  Our board of directors has the power, subject to applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange on  which our securities may be listed and without further action by shareholders, to issue additional shares of  Common Stock that could impede the completion of a merger, tender offer or other takeover attempt that  some, or a majority, of our shareholders might believe to be in their best interests.  Increase in the Number of Directors  Our board of directors currently consists of six directors but has the authority to increase the number  of authorized directors without seeking shareholder approval. Newly created directorships resulting from  an increase in the number of authorized directors, or any vacancies in our board of directors resulting  from death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office or other cause, are filled solely  by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office. An increase in the number  of authorized directors could have the effect of discouraging a takeover by restricting the ability of a  shareholder (or group of shareholders) from changing the majority composition of the board of directors.  Classified Board of Directors  If at any time our board of directors shall consist of nine or more members, our Articles of  Incorporation provide that the board of directors shall be divided into three classes, effective following  the shareholders’ meeting during which the number of members of the board of directors is increased to  nine or more. In such an event, the term of the first class shall expire at the first succeeding annual  meeting, the term of the second class shall expire at the second succeeding annual meeting and the term  of the third class shall expire at the third succeeding annual meeting. At each annual meeting of  shareholders after such classification, the directors whose term expires at the time of such meeting shall  be elected to hold office until the third succeeding annual meeting. Our ability to classify the board of  directors could have the effect of discouraging a takeover by restricting the ability of a shareholder (or  group of shareholders) from changing the majority composition of the board of directors at any one  meeting.  Advance Notice Requirements for Shareholder Director Nominations  Our Bylaws contain procedural requirements for shareholder nominations of directors and require  certain information to be provided by shareholders nominating directors, including biographical  information and share ownership amounts. These provisions may discourage or deter a potential acquirer  from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise  attempting to obtain control of our Company.  

 

3    Special Meetings of Shareholders  Our Bylaws provide that special meetings of shareholders may be called only by the (1) board of  directors, (2) the President or (3) the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary upon the request of the holders of  shares entitled to vote not less than 10% of our outstanding Common Stock and in compliance with the  requirements in the Bylaws. This limited ability to call a special meeting of shareholders may have an  anti-takeover effect because a potential acquirer may be impeded from calling a special meeting of  shareholders to consider removing directors or to consider an acquisition offer.  Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions in the Articles of Incorporation  Our Articles of Incorporation provide that the affirmative vote of holders of at least 75% of all  outstanding Common Stock is required to approve certain business combinations, including mergers,  consolidations, the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the issuance of securities  of the Company, with or to any 5% or greater shareholder, as well as to approve certain amendments to  the Articles of Incorporation.  Anti-Takeover Effects of Washington Law  In addition, we are subject to the WBCA which imposes restrictions on certain transactions between a  corporation and certain significant shareholders. Chapter 23B.19 of the WBCA generally prohibits a  “target corporation” (as defined in the WBCA) from engaging in certain significant business transactions  with an “acquiring person” (defined as a person or group of persons that beneficially owns 10% or more  of the voting securities of the target corporation) for a period of five years after such acquisition, unless  the transaction or acquisition of shares is approved (1) prior to the time of the acquisition, by a majority of  the members of the target corporation’s board of directors or (2) at or subsequent to the time of  acquisition, by a majority of the members of the target corporation’s board of directors and authorized at  an annual or special meeting of shareholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at  least 66-2/3% of the outstanding voting shares, except for shares beneficially owned by or under the  voting control of the acquiring person. Such prohibited transactions include, among other things:   a merger or consolidation with, disposition of assets to, or issuance or redemption of stock to  or from the acquiring person;   termination of 5% or more of the employees of the target corporation employed in  Washington, whether at one time or over a five-year period as a result of the acquiring  person’s acquisition of 10% or more of the shares; or   allowing the acquiring person to receive any disproportionate benefit as a shareholder.    After the five-year period, a “significant business transaction” may occur if it complies with “fair  price” provisions specified in the statute or is approved at an annual or special meeting of shareholders by  a majority of the outstanding shares other than those of owned by the acquiring person. As a result, the  WBCA could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control.  Transfer Agent and Registrar  Our transfer agent and registrar is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.  Listing  Our Common Stock is traded on the the NASDAQ Global Market under the trading symbol “KTCC.”
