A.    The 2013 CPU Agreement currently provides that Convertible Phantom Units (“CPUs”) may convert to Partnership Units at varying multiples depending on Partnership Unit distribution levels over a period prior to vesting.
B.    The parties wish to limit the Partnership Unit conversion multiple to 1 with respect to all of the CPUs and to modify the PDRs (as defined in the 2013 CPU Agreement).
C.    Pursuant to Section 15 of the CPU Agreement, the parties may amend the 2013 CPU Agreement by written agreement.
AMENDMENT
For valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby amend the 2013 CPU Agreement as follows, which amendments shall take effect and be incorporated into the CPU Agreement from and after the date of this Amendment:
1.    The Grant Notice is hereby amended by adding the following language at the beginning of the first sentence following the heading, “PDRs:” “Commencing with the date of the Amendment, each.”
2.    Section 2(a) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following Section 2(a), as follows:
a.“General.  Each CPU granted or credited hereunder shall be issued in tandem with a corresponding PDR, which PDR shall remain outstanding from the date of this Amendment until the earlier to occur of a Payment Date (as defined below) or the forfeiture of the CPU to which such PDR corresponds.  The Participant shall not be entitled to PDRs that were credited, or to any amount payable as a result of any PDRs that were credited, prior to the date of this Amendment.  Pursuant to each PDR, the Participant shall be entitled to receive an amount,

1

credited in the form of additional CPUs as set forth in the following sentence, equal to the product of (i) the aggregate per Unit distributions paid by the Partnership in respect of each month, through which the PDR remains outstanding, beginning with the distribution paid in February 2015, (provided that the PDR is outstanding as of the record date set by the Board of Directors of the Company for such distribution) (including any extraordinary non-recurring distributions paid during a month), if any, times (ii) the number of common unit equivalents (“CUEs”) underlying the relevant CPU during such month (as determined in accordance with Section 2(b) below), divided by the closing price of the Unit on the date  on which such distribution is paid to Unitholders.  All such PDRs shall be credited to the Participant in the form of additional CPUs as of the date of payment of any such distribution based on the Fair Market Value of a Unit on such date.  Each additional CPU which results from such crediting of PDRs granted hereunder shall be subject to the same vesting, forfeiture, payment or distribution, adjustment and other provisions which apply to the underlying CPU to which such additional CPU relates.  PDRs shall not entitle the Participant to any amounts relating to distributions occurring after the earlier to occur of the applicable Payment Date or the Participant’s forfeiture of the CPU to which such PDR relates in accordance herewith.” 

3.    Exhibit B to the 2013 CPU Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the form of Exhibit B attached hereto.

This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws in force in the state of Delaware, without regard to that state’s conflict-of-laws rules and principles.
