    AWARD
NOTICE

    PHANTOM
UNITS WITH DERS

     

    Exterran
GP LLC (the “Company”), as general partner of Exterran General Partner, L.P.
(the general partner of Exterran Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”)), has
granted to you, Stephen A. Snider (the "Participant"), Phantom Units, with a
tandem grant of Distribution Equivalent Rights (“DERs”) for each Phantom Unit,
under the Exterran Partners, L.P. Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the
“Plan”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Award Notice
(this "Notice") and the Plan.  Unless otherwise defined herein,
capitalized terms in this Notice have the same meaning ascribed to them in the
Plan.

     

    The
material terms of your Award are as follows:

     

    1. Award. You
have been granted Phantom Units, each with a tandem grant of DERs (your "Award")
as provided above.  The Company will establish a non-interest bearing
DER bookkeeping account for you with respect to each Phantom Unit granted which
shall be credited with an amount equal to any cash distributions made by the
Partnership on a Common Unit (“Unit”) during the period your Phantom Units are
outstanding.

     

    2. Grant
Date.  The grant date of your Award is the Issue Date provided
above.

     

    3. Vesting.  Your
Award will automatically vest on June 30, 2009 (the “Vesting
Date”).  Except as otherwise provided in Paragraphs 4 and 5 below, you
must be in the employment of the Company at all times from the Grant Date up to
and including the Vesting Date to vest in your Phantom Units under this
Award.  In addition, the cash amounts credited to your DER account
with respect to your vested Phantom Units will vest on the Vesting
Date.  If your Phantom Units are forfeited, the amount credited to
your DER account will also be forfeited as of the same date. Contact Exterran’s
Stock Plan Administrator at (281) 836-7000 with any questions concerning the
vesting of your Award.

     

    4. Termination of
Employment.  If your employment with the Company terminates for
any reason other than due to your a) death b) a disability that would meet the
criteria for being considered “disabled” under the Company’s or an Affiliate’s
long-term disability plan as if you were eligible to participate in the plan
(“Disability”), or (c) Retirement (as defined below), then all of your unvested
Phantom Units, along with the amounts credited to your DER account, will be
forfeited without payment as of the date of such termination. If your employment
with the Company terminates as a result of your death, Disability or Retirement,
then your unvested Phantom Units, along with any DERs credited to your DER
account, will vest on the date of such termination.  For purposes of
this Notice, (a) your “employment with the Company” includes your employment as
an Employee with the Company or an Affiliate, (b) your “employment with the
Company” will be terminated only if it is a "separation from service" within the
meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and accompanying
regulations issued under Section 409A, and (c) your “Retirement” means your
voluntary termination of employment with the Company on or after June 30,
2009.

     

    5. Change of Control
Prior to Vesting or Termination of Employment.  Your unvested
Phantom Units, along with any DERs credited to your DER account, will vest on
the date of a Change of Control, provided you are employed with the Company or
an Affiliate of as such date.

     

    6. Payment.  As
soon as administratively practicable, but in no event later than the 60th day
after the date your Phantom Units vest in accordance with Paragraphs 3, 4 or 5
above (the "Payment Date"), the Company will pay you one Unit of the Partnership
with respect to each vested Phantom Unit; provided, however, that the Committee,
in its discretion, may elect to pay to you on the Payment Date all of the Units
related to your vested Phantom Units either (a) in the form of a lump sum cash
payment or (b) in a combination of Units and a lump sum cash payment in lieu of
Units.  Any lump sum cash payment will be equal to the Fair Market
Value as of the vesting date of the Units.  Awards made under this
Notice are not intended to be subject to Section 409A of the Code under the
short-term deferral exclusion and this Notice will be interpreted and operated
consistent with such intent.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    7. Non-Transferability.  Prior
to vesting, you cannot sell, transfer, pledge, exchange or otherwise dispose of
the Phantom Units, with DERs issued under this Award.

     

    8. Withholding.  If
your Award is subject to applicable income, employment and/or social insurance
or social security withholding obligations, unless you make other arrangements
with the Company prior to the Payment Date, the Company or its Affiliate shall
withhold cash and/or a sufficient number of Units that are otherwise issuable to
you pursuant to your Award to satisfy any such withholding obligations. If
necessary, the Company also reserves the right to withhold from your regular
earnings an amount sufficient to meet the withholding obligations.

     

    9. Rights as
Unitholder.  You, or your executor, administrator, heirs, or
legatees shall have the right to receive distributions on Units and all the
other privileges of a unitholder of the Partnership only from the date of
issuance of a Unit in your name representing payment of a vested Phantom
Unit.

     

    10. No Right to
Continued Employment.  Nothing contained in this Notice confers
upon you any right to continued employment with the Company or interferes in any
way with the right of the Company or any its Affiliates to terminate your
employment at any time.

     

    11. Plan

    The
greatest assets of Exterran Partners, L.P. and its affiliates and subsidiaries
(“Exterran”) are its employees, directors, customers, and confidential
information.  In recognition of the increased risk of unfairly losing
any of these assets to its competitors, Exterran has adopted this Exhibit A as
its policy, which you accept and agree to by accepting the Award.

     

    In
connection with your acceptance of the Award under the Plan, and in exchange for
the consideration provided thereunder, you agree that you will not, during your
employment with, or service to Exterran, and for one year thereafter, directly
or indirectly, for any reason, for your own account or on behalf of or together
with any other person, entity or organization (a) call on or otherwise solicit
any natural person who is employed by Exterran in any capacity with the purpose
or intent of attracting that person from the employ of Exterran, or (b) divert
or attempt to divert from Exterran any business relating to the provision of
natural gas compression equipment and/or related services without the prior
written consent of Exterran. As further consideration for the grant of the
Award, you agree that you will not, either while employed by, or in service to
Exterran, or at any time thereafter, (i) make any independent use of, or
disclose to any other person (except as authorized by Exterran) any
confidential, nonpublic and/or proprietary information of Exterran, including,
without limitation, information derived from reports, work in progress, codes,
marketing and sales programs, customer lists, records of customer service
requirements, cost summaries, pricing formulae, methods of doing business,
ideas, materials or information prepared or performed for, by or on behalf of
Exterran nor (ii) by any manner or means, in public or in private, disparage,
demean, insult or defame Exterran, its officers or directors.

     

    If any
court determines that any provision of this agreement, or any part thereof, is
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this agreement shall not be affected
and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions and the
court shall have the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision, as
the case may be, and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be
enforceable.

     

    You
hereby acknowledge that the Award being granted to you under the Plan is an
extraordinary item of compensation and is not part of, nor in lieu of, your
ordinary wages for services you may render to Exterran.

     

    You
understand that this agreement is independent of and does not affect the
enforceability of any other restrictive covenants by which you have agreed to be
bound in any other agreement with Exterran.ex10-2.htm

herein, Company waives presentment, notice of dishonor, protest or notice
of protest and nonpayment, notice of costs, expenses or losses and interest
