No relationship, direct or indirect, exists between or among any Teekay Entity, on the one hand, and the directors, officers, members, partners, stockholders, customers or suppliers of any Teekay Entity on the other hand that is required to be described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus that is not so described. There are no outstanding loans, advances (except normal advances for business expenses in the ordinary course of business) or guarantees of indebtedness by any Teekay Entity to or for the benefit of any of the officers, directors or managers of any Teekay Entity or their respective family members, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. No Teekay Entity has, in violation of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, directly or indirectly, extended or maintained credit, arranged for the extension of credit, or renewed an extension of credit, in the form of a personal loan to or for any director or executive officer of any Teekay Entity.

(jj) Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002. The Partnership is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations of the Commission, the NYSE (as defined in Section 1(ss) hereof) that are effective and applicable to the Partnership.

(kk) No Labor Dispute. No labor problem or dispute with the employees of the Teekay Entities exists or is threatened or imminent, and none of the Teekay Parties is aware of any existing or imminent labor disturbance by the employees of any of the principal suppliers, contractors or customers of any of the Teekay Entities, that, in each case, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(ll) Tax Returns. Each of the Teekay Entities has filed all tax returns that are required to be filed or has requested extensions thereof (except in any case in which the failure so to file could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect) and has paid all taxes required to be paid by it and any other assessment, fine or penalty levied against it, to the extent that any of the foregoing is due and payable, except for any such assessment, fine or penalty that is currently being contested in good faith or as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(mm) Books and Records. Each Teekay Entity maintains systems of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Teekay Entities’ internal

controls over financial reporting are effective and the Teekay Parties are not aware of any material weakness in the internal controls over financial reporting of any of the Teekay Entities.

(nn) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Teekay Entities maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act); such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

(oo) Environmental Compliance. Each Teekay Entity (i) is in compliance with any and all applicable foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of human health and safety, the environment or Hazardous Materials (as defined below) (“Environmental Laws”), (ii) has received and is in compliance with all permits, licenses or other approvals required of it under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct its business, (iii) has not received notice of any actual or potential liability under any environmental law, and (iv) is not a party to or affected by any pending or, to the knowledge of the Teekay Parties, threatened action, suit or proceeding, is not bound by any judgment, decree or order, and has not entered into any agreement, in each case relating to any alleged violation of any Environmental Law or any actual or alleged release or threatened release or cleanup at any location of any Hazardous Materials, except where such noncompliance or deviation from that described in (i) — (iv) above could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Teekay Entities has been named as a “potentially responsible party” under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (“CERCLA”). The term “Hazardous Materials” means (A) any “hazardous substance” as defined in CERCLA, (B) any “hazardous waste” as defined in the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, (C) any petroleum or petroleum product, (D) any polychlorinated biphenyl and (E) any pollutant or contaminant or hazardous, dangerous or toxic chemical, material, waste or substance regulated under or within the meaning of any other Environmental Law.

(pp) Effect of Environmental Laws. In the ordinary course of its business, each Teekay Entity periodically reviews the effect of Environmental Laws on its business, operations and properties, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws or any permit, license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such review, each Teekay Entity has reasonably concluded that such associated costs and liabilities would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(qq) Intellectual Property. Each of the Teekay Entities owns or possesses rights to use all patents, patent applications, trademarks, service marks, trade names, trademark registrations, service mark registrations, copyrights, technology, know-how and other intellectual property necessary for the conduct of their respective businesses, except where the failure to possess such rights could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and the Teekay Parties believe that the conduct by the Teekay Entities of their respective businesses will not conflict with, and the Teekay Entities have not received any notice of any claim of conflict with, any such rights of others.

(rr) No Distribution of Other Offering Materials. None of the Teekay Entities has distributed and, prior to the later to occur of (i) each Closing Date and (ii) completion of the distribution of the Units, will not distribute, any prospectus (as defined under the Act) in connection with the offering and sale of the Units other than the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other materials, if any, permitted by the Act, including Rule 134 under the Act.

(ss) NYSE Listing. The Units have been or will be approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), subject only to official notice of issuance.

(tt) Investment Company.

(uu) Passive Foreign Investment Company. To the best knowledge of the Teekay Parties, after consultation with United States federal income tax counsel, none of the Teekay Entities is a Passive Foreign Investment Company (“PFIC”) within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

(vv) Tax Status. None of the Teekay Entities, other than the Partnership and the General Partner, has elected to be classified as an association taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. Each of the Teekay Entities, other than the Partnership and the General Partner, has properly elected to be classified as a disregarded entity if it has one owner or as a partnership if it has more than one owner for United States federal income tax purposes (other than any Teekay Entity that is classified other than as a corporation without regard to whether it makes an election).

(ww) Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. No Teekay Entity, nor any director, officer, or employee, nor, to the knowledge of the Teekay Parties, any agent or representative of the Teekay Entities, has taken or will take any action, directly or indirectly, that would result in a violation by such persons of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (such act, including the rules and regulations thereunder, the “FCPA”), including, without limitation, making use of the mails or any means or instrumentality of interstate commerce corruptly in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization or approval of the payment or giving of money, property, gifts or anything else of value, directly or indirectly, to any “government official” (including any officer or employee of a government or government-owned or controlled entity or of a public international organization, or any person acting in an official capacity for or on behalf of any of the foregoing, or any political party or party official or candidate for political office) to influence official action or secure an improper advantage; and the Teekay Entities have conducted their businesses in compliance with applicable anti-corruption laws and have instituted and maintain and will continue to maintain policies and procedures designed to promote and achieve compliance with such laws and with the representation and warranty contained herein.

(xx) Sanctions Laws and Regulations. Neither the sale of the Units by the Partnership hereunder nor the use of the proceeds thereof will cause any U.S. person participating in the offering, either as underwriter and/or purchasers of the Units, to violate the Trading With the Enemy Act, as amended, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, as amended, or any foreign asset control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) (all such laws and regulations collectively referred to as the “Sanctions Laws and Regulations”) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto.

(yy) OFAC. None of the Teekay Entities or their directors or officers is, and, to the knowledge of the Teekay Parties, no agent, employee or affiliate of any of the Teekay Entities is an individual or entity (“Person”) that is the subject of any sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department (“OFAC”); and the Teekay Entities will not directly or indirectly use the proceeds of the offering, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person to facilitate or finance any activities of or with any Person, or in any country or territory, that, at the time of such financing, is the subject of any sanctions administered by OFAC.

(zz) Money Laundering Laws. The operations of the Teekay Entities are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended, the money laundering statutes of all jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency (collectively, the “Money Laundering Laws”) and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving any of the Teekay Entities with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the knowledge of the Teekay Parties, threatened.

(aaa) Brokers. Except as described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there are no contracts, agreements or understandings between any Teekay Entity and any person that would give rise to a valid claim against any Teekay Entity or any Underwriter for a brokerage commission, finder’s fee or other like payment in connection with this offering of the Units.

(bbb) Market Stabilization. None of the Teekay Entities has taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Partnership to facilitate the sale or resale of the Units.

(ccc) Prohibition on Dividends. Except as provided in the credit and loan agreements described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and by Section 40 of the Xxxxxxxx Islands Limited Liability Company Act of 1996, neither the Operating Company nor any Operating Subsidiary is prohibited, directly or indirectly, from paying any dividends to the Partnership or the Operating Company, as the case may be, from making any other distribution on such subsidiary’s equity securities, from repaying to the Partnership or the Operating Company any loans or advances to such subsidiary from the Partnership or the Operating

Company or from transferring any of such subsidiary’s property or assets to the Partnership, the Operating Company or any other subsidiary of the Partnership.

(ddd) Statistical and Market Data. The statistical and market-related data included in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus are based on or derived from sources which the Teekay Parties believe to be reliable and accurate.

(eee) To the Teekay Parties’ knowledge, there are no affiliations or associations between (i) any member of FINRA and (ii) the Partnership or any of the General Partner’s officers, directors or 5% or greater security holders or any beneficial owner of the Partnership’s unregistered equity securities that were acquired at any time on or after the 180th day immediately preceding the date the Registration Statement was initially filed with the Commission, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement (excluding the exhibits thereto), the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(fff) Any certificate signed by any officer of any Teekay Entity and delivered to the Underwriters or to counsel for the Underwriters in connection with the closing of the Offering shall be deemed a representation and warranty by such Teekay Entity, as to matters covered thereby, to each Underwriter.

2. Purchase and Sale.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Partnership agrees to sell to each Underwriter, and each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Partnership, at a purchase price of $26.71 per Unit, the number of the Firm Units set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name in Schedule I hereto.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Partnership hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to 840,000 Option Units at the same purchase price per Unit as the Underwriters shall pay for the Firm Units. Said option may be exercised only to cover over-allotments in the sale of the Firm Units by the Underwriters. Said option may be exercised in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on or before the 30th day after the date of the Prospectus upon written notice by the Representatives to the Partnership setting forth the number of Option Units as to which the several Underwriters are exercising the option and the settlement date. The number of Option Units to be purchased by each Underwriter shall be the same percentage of the total number of Option Units to be purchased by the several Underwriters as such Underwriter is purchasing of the Firm Units, subject to such adjustments as the Representatives in their absolute discretion shall make to eliminate any fractional Units.

3. Delivery and Payment. Delivery of and payment for the Firm Units and the Option Units (if the option provided for in Section 2(b) hereof shall have been exercised on or before the third Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date) shall be made at 10:00 AM, Eastern time, on December 8, 2010, at the offices of Xxxxxxx Coie LLP, Portland, Oregon, or at such time on such later date not more than three Business Days after the foregoing

date as the Representatives shall designate, which date and time may be postponed by agreement between the Representatives and the Partnership or as provided in Section 9 hereof (such date and time of delivery and payment for the Units being herein called the “Closing Date”). Delivery of the Units shall be made to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters against payment by the several Underwriters through the Representatives of the purchase price thereof to or upon the order of the Partnership by wire transfer payable in same-day funds to an account specified by the Partnership. Delivery of the Units shall be made through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) unless the Representatives shall otherwise instruct.

If the option provided for in Section 2(b) hereof is exercised after the third Business Day immediately preceding the initial Closing Date, the Partnership will deliver the Option Units (at the expense of the Partnership) to the Representatives, on the date specified by the Representatives (which shall be within three Business Days after exercise of said option) for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters, against payment by the several Underwriters through the Representatives of the purchase price thereof to or upon the order of the Partnership by wire transfer payable in same-day funds to an account specified by the Partnership. Delivery of the Option Units shall be made through the facilities of DTC unless the Representatives shall otherwise instruct. If settlement of the Option Units occurs after the initial Closing Date, the Partnership will deliver to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters on the Closing Date for the Option Units, and the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase the Option Units shall be conditioned upon receipt of, supplemental opinions (other than the opinions specified in Sections 6(f) and 6(g)), certificates and letters confirming as of such date the opinions, certificates and letters delivered on the initial Closing Date pursuant to Section 6 hereof. To the extent any of the opinions specified in Sections 6(f) and 6(g) are not delivered on the Closing Date for the Option Units, as contemplated by the preceding sentence, the certificate specified in 6(i) delivered on such Closing Date shall include an additional statement to the effect that, to the officers’ knowledge, after due inquiry, there has been no change in fact or law that would lead the officers to believe that such legal opinions could not be delivered on such Closing Date.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or a legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions, trust companies and the NYSE are authorized or obligated by law to close in New York City.

4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the several Underwriters propose to offer the Units for sale to the public as set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

5. Agreements. Each of the Teekay Parties, jointly and severally, agrees with the several Underwriters that:

(a) Preparation of the Prospectus and Registration Statement. Prior to the termination of the offering of the Units, the Partnership will not file any amendment of the Registration Statement or supplement (including the Prospectus or any Preliminary Prospectus) to the Base Prospectus or any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement unless the Partnership has furnished to you a copy for your review prior to filing and will not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which you reasonably object. The Partnership will cause the

Prospectus, properly completed, and any supplement thereto to be filed in a form approved by the Representatives, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) within the time period prescribed and will provide evidence satisfactory to the Representatives of such timely filing. The Partnership will promptly advise the Representatives (i) when the Prospectus, and any supplement thereto, shall have been filed (if required) with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) or when any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement shall have been filed with the Commission, (ii) when, prior to termination of the offering of the Units, any amendment to the Registration Statement shall have been filed or become effective, (iii) of any request by the Commission or its staff for any amendment of the Registration Statement, or any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement, or for any supplement to the Prospectus or for any additional information, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any notice objecting to its use or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and (v) of the receipt by the Partnership of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Units for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Partnership will use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or the occurrence of any such suspension or objection to the use of the Registration Statement and, upon such issuance, occurrence or notice of objection, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal of such stop order or relief from such occurrence or objection, including, if necessary, by filing an amendment to the Registration Statement or a new registration statement and using its commercially reasonable efforts to have such amendment or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable.

(b) Notification Regarding Disclosure Package. If, at any time prior to the filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b), any event occurs as a result of which the Disclosure Package would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made at such time not misleading, the Partnership will (i) notify promptly the Representatives so that any use of the Disclosure Package may cease until it is amended or supplemented; (ii) amend or supplement the Disclosure Package to correct such statement or omission; and (iii) supply any amendment or supplement to you in such quantities as you may reasonably request.

(c) Filing of Amendment or Supplement. If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Units is required to be delivered under the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus as then supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made or the circumstances then prevailing not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement or supplement the Prospectus to comply with the Act or the rules thereunder, the Partnership promptly will (i) notify the Representatives of any such event; (ii) prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the first sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 5, an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance; and (iii) supply any supplemented prospectus to you in such quantities as you may reasonably request.

(d) Reports to Unitholders. As soon as practicable, but in any event not later than 60 days after the close of the period covered thereby, the Partnership will make generally available to its unitholders and to the Representatives an earnings statement or statements of the Partnership and its subsidiaries which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158.

(e) Copies of Reports. The Partnership will furnish or make available via the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval System (“XXXXX”) to its unitholders annual reports containing financial statements audited by independent public accountants and quarterly reports containing financial statements and financial information which may be unaudited. The Partnership will, for a period of two years from the Closing Date, furnish or make available via XXXXX, to the Underwriters a copy of each annual report, quarterly report, current report and all other documents, reports and information furnished by the Partnership to its unitholders (excluding any periodic income tax reporting materials) or filed with any securities exchange or market pursuant to the requirements of such exchange or market or with the Commission pursuant to the Act or the Exchange Act (other than any annual chief executive officer certification and annual written affirmations to the NYSE).

(f) Signed Copies of the Registration Statement. The Partnership will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters photocopies of signed copies of the Registration Statement (including exhibits thereto) and to each other Underwriter a copy of the Registration Statement (without exhibits thereto) and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by an Underwriter or dealer may be required by the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), as many copies of each Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and any supplement thereto as the Representatives may reasonably request.

(g) Qualification of Units. The Partnership will arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Units for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may reasonably designate and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as reasonably required for the distribution of the Units; provided that in no event shall the Partnership be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Units, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject. The Partnership will, from time to time, prepare and file such statements and reports as are or may be reasonably required of it to continue such qualifications in effect for so long a period as the Representatives may reasonably request for the distribution of the Units.

(h) Lock-up Period; Lock-up Letters. The Teekay Entities will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise) by the Teekay Entities, or any affiliated company of the Teekay Entities) directly or indirectly, including the filing (or participation in the filing) of a registration statement with the Commission in respect of, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder with respect to, any

Common Units or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, Common Units; or publicly announce an intention to effect any such transaction, for a period of 60 days after the date of this Agreement (the “Restricted Period”), provided, however, that the Partnership may grant restricted units or options to purchase Common Units under the Partnership’s 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan.

(i) Compliance with Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act. Each of the Teekay Entities will comply in all material respects with all applicable provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002.

(j) Price Manipulation. The Teekay Entities will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that could reasonably be expected to cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Partnership to facilitate the sale or resale of the Units.

(k) Expenses. The Partnership agrees to pay the costs and expenses relating to the following matters: (i) the preparation, printing or reproduction and filing with the Commission of the Registration Statement (including financial statements and exhibits thereto), each Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and each amendment or supplement to any of them; (ii) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery (including postage, air freight charges and charges for counting and packaging) of such copies of the Registration Statement, each Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, and all amendments or supplements to any of them, as may, in each case, be reasonably requested for use in connection with the offering and sale of the Units; (iii) the preparation, printing, authentication, issuance and delivery of certificates for the Units, including any stamp or transfer taxes in connection with the original issuance and sale of the Units; (iv) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery of this Agreement, any blue sky memorandum and all other agreements or documents printed (or reproduced) and delivered in connection with the offering of the Units; (v) the registration of the Units under the Exchange Act and the listing of the Units on the NYSE; (vi) any registration or qualification of the Units for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of the several states (including filing fees and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters relating to such registration and qualification); (vii) any filings required to be made with Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) (including filing fees); (viii) the transportation and other expenses incurred by or on behalf of Partnership representatives in connection with presentations to prospective purchasers of the Units; (ix) the fees and expenses of the Partnership’s accountants and the fees and expenses of counsel (including local and special counsel) for the Partnership; and (x) all other costs and expenses of the Partnership or the Teekay Entities incident to the performance by them of their obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that, except as expressly provided in this subsection (k) and Sections 7 and 8 hereof, the Underwriters will pay all of their own costs and expenses, including without limitation, fees and disbursements of their counsel, transfer taxes on the resale by them of any of the Units, the transportation and other expenses incurred by or on their behalf in connection with presentations to potential purchasers of Units and any advertising expenses relating to offers of Units they may make.

(l) Use of Proceeds. The Teekay Entities will use the net proceeds received by them from the sale of the Units as set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(m) Investment Company; PFIC. For a period of four years after the Closing Date or, if later, the Closing Date for the Option Units, the Partnership will use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid any Teekay Entity, or any subsidiary thereof, from becoming (i) an “investment company” as defined in the 1940 Act, or (ii) a PFIC with respect to any U.S. unitholder.

(n) PFIC Notice to Unitholders. If the Partnership determines that it or any of its subsidiaries is or will be a PFIC with respect to any U.S. unitholder, it will contemporaneously provide notice to its unitholders and the Representatives, along with information concerning the potential availability of a “qualified electing fund” election (or elections) under Section 1295 of the Code or any other applicable election with respect to the Partnership or any subsidiary that is a PFIC with respect to such U.S. unitholders.

(o) Sanctions Laws and Regulations. The Partnership will not take, and will cause each of its subsidiaries not to take, directly or indirectly, any action that could reasonably be expected to result in a violation by any U.S. person participating in the offering of the Sanctions Laws and Regulations with respect to the sale of the Units hereunder. Further, the Partnership will not use, and will cause each subsidiary not to use, the proceeds from the sale of the Units, directly or indirectly, for any purpose or activity that would cause the Underwriters or any purchaser of the Units to be in violation of the Sanctions Laws and Regulations or any agent or “Specially Designated National” of any country the subject of the Sanctions Laws and Regulations, or any person or entity of any country the subject of the Sanctions Laws and Regulations.

6. Conditions to the Obligations of the Underwriters.

(xvi) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the offering, issuance and sale by the Partnership of the Units in accordance with and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, do not and will not (A) conflict with or constitute a violation of the organizational documents of the Partnership, the General Partner, the Operating Company, the OLP GP or the Xxxxxxxx Islands Subsidiaries, (B) conflict with or constitute a breach or violation of, or a default under (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default), the agreements or instruments governed by Xxxxxxxx Islands Law or New York Law and listed on a schedule to such opinion, (C) violate Xxxxxxxx Islands Law or New York Law, or (D) violate any judgment, order or decree of which we are aware of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental body, arbitrator or other authority situated in the Republic of The Xxxxxxxx Islands or the State of New York directed to any of the Partnership, the General Partner, the Operating Company, the OLP GP or the Xxxxxxxx Islands Subsidiaries in a proceeding to which any of them is a party.

(xix) Accuracy of Statements. The statements (A) in the Partnership’s Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2009 (the “Form 20-F”) under the captions “Item 4. Information on the Partnership—E. Taxation of the Partnership—Xxxxxxxx Islands Taxation” and “Item 10. Additional Information—Non-United States Tax Consequences—Xxxxxxxx Islands Tax Consequences” and (B) in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus under the captions “Non-United States Tax Considerations—Xxxxxxxx Islands Tax Considerations” and “Service of Process and Enforcement of Civil Liabilities,” insofar as they purport to constitute summaries of Xxxxxxxx Islands Law or legal conclusions of Xxxxxxxx Islands Law, fairly describe in all material respects the portions of the statutes and regulations addressed thereby, subject to the qualifications and assumptions stated therein.

(xx) Choice of Law. The choice of New York law to govern this Agreement constitutes a valid choice of law under Xxxxxxxx Islands Law.

(xxi) Non-Exclusive Jurisdiction. The submission by the Partnership to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any Federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, is a valid submission under Xxxxxxxx Islands Law.

(xxii) Enforcement of Judgments. A judgment granted by a foreign court against the Partnership may be recognized in the Republic of The Xxxxxxxx Islands, so long as the foreign judgment grants or denies recovery of a sum of money, and is final and conclusive and enforceable where rendered even though an appeal therefrom is pending, or subject to appeal. A foreign judgment is not conclusive if: (A) the judgment was rendered under a system which does not provide impartial tribunals or procedures compatible with the requirements of due process of law, (B) the foreign court did not have personal jurisdiction over the defendant, (C) the foreign court did not have

jurisdiction over the subject matter, or (D) the foreign court does not recognize or enforce the judgments of any other foreign nation. A foreign judgment need not be recognized if: (A) the defendant in the proceedings in the foreign court did not receive notice of the proceedings in sufficient time to enable him to defend, (B) the judgment was obtained by fraud, (C), the cause of action on which the judgment is based is repugnant to the public policy of the Republic of The Xxxxxxxx Islands, (D) the judgment conflicts with another final and conclusive judgment, (E) the proceeding in the foreign court was contrary to an agreement between the parties under which the dispute in question was to be settled otherwise than by proceedings in the court, or (F) in the case of jurisdiction based only on personal service, the foreign court was a seriously inconvenient forum for the trial of the action.

(xxiii) Negative Assurance. The primary purpose of such counsel’s engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters. In addition, such counsel has not undertaken any obligation to verify independently any of the factual matters set forth in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. Consequently, such counsel has not independently verified, is not passing on, and is not assuming any responsibility for the accuracy (except to the extent specified in paragraph 19 above), completeness or fairness of the statements (A) in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the captions “Non-United States Tax Considerations—Xxxxxxxx Islands Tax Considerations” and “Service of Process and Enforcement of Civil Liabilities,” (B) in the Form 20-F under the captions “Item 4. Information on the Partnership—E. Taxation of the Partnership—Xxxxxxxx Islands Taxation” and “Item 10. Additional Information—Non-United States Tax Consequences—Xxxxxxxx Islands Tax Consequences.” Subject to the foregoing, such counsel confirm to the Underwriters that no facts have come to such counsel’s attention which cause such counsel to believe that (a) the above-referenced sections of the Registration Statement and the Form 20-F, as of the most recent effective date of the Registration Statement, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (b) the above-referenced sections included in the Disclosure Package, as of 8:30 a.m., New York City time on December 3, 2010, included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (c) the above-referenced sections of the Prospectus, as of its date and as of the date hereof, included or includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

In addition, such counsel shall confirm that their opinion that will be filed as Exhibit 8.2 to the Partnership’s Report on Form 6-K to be filed prior to Closing and to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement is confirmed and the Underwriters may rely upon such opinion as if it were addressed to them.

In rendering such opinion, such counsel may (A) rely in respect of matters of fact upon certificates of officers and employees of the Teekay Entities and upon information obtained from public officials, (B) assume that all documents submitted to them as originals are authentic, that

all copies submitted to them conform to the originals thereof, and that the signatures on all documents examined by them are genuine and (C) state that their opinion is limited to the laws of the State of New York, the laws of The Republic of the Xxxxxxxx Islands and United States federal law.

(d) The Partnership shall have requested and caused Xxxxxxx Coie LLP, counsel for the Partnership, to have furnished to you their written opinion, dated each Closing Date and addressed to you, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives, to the effect that:

(i) Description of Tax Matters. The statements in the (A) Registration Statement, Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the caption “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” and (B) in the Form 20-F under the captions “Item 4. Information on the Partnership—E. Taxation of the Partnership—United States Taxation” and “Item 10. Additional Information—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” with respect to legal matters or legal conclusions, in all material respects, is an accurate discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations addressed therein (except for the representations and statements of fact of the Partnership included in such discussion, as to which such counsel need not opine or comment).

(ii) Tax Opinion. The opinion of Xxxxxxx Xxxx LLP that is filed as Exhibit 8.1 to the Registration Statement is confirmed and the Underwriters may rely upon such opinion as if it were addressed to them.

(iii) No Options. To the knowledge of such counsel and except as described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there are no outstanding options or warrants to purchase (A) any Common Units Incentive Distribution Rights or other interests in the Partnership, or (B) any membership interests in the General Partner, the Operating Company, or the Operating Subsidiaries.

(iv) No Registration Rights. To the knowledge of such counsel, there are no contracts, agreements or understandings between any of the Teekay Entities and any person granting such person the right to require any of the Teekay Entities to file a registration statement under the Act with respect to any securities of any of the Teekay Entities owned or to be owned by such person or to require any of the Teekay Entities to include such securities in the securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement or in any securities being registered pursuant to any other registration statement filed by any Teekay Entity under the Act, except for any such rights held by the General Partner or an Affiliate (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of the General Partner pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, which rights have been waived or do not apply with respect to this Offering.

(v) Accuracy of Statements. The statements (A) in the Registration Statement under the captions “How We Make Cash Distributions” and “Description of the Common Units,” (B) in the Form 8-A/A under the captions “Our Partnership Agreement” and “How We Make Cash Distributions” and (C) in subsection m) in the Form 20-F under the caption “Item 7. Major Unitholders and Related Party

Transactions—X. Xxxxxxx Relationships and Related Party Transactions,” insofar as they constitute descriptions of agreements, fairly describe in all material respects the portions of the agreements addressed thereby, and the Common Units and the Incentive Distribution Rights conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Registration Statement under the captions “How We Make Cash Distributions” and “Description of the Common Units” and in the Form 8-A/A under the captions “Our Partnership Agreement” and “How We Make Cash Distributions”; provided, however, that such counsel need not express any opinion with respect to Xxxxxxxx Islands law.

(vi) Effectiveness of Registration Statement. The Registration Statement was declared effective under the Act on May 22, 2008; the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus have been filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) in a manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b); and, to the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Act and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or is pending or threatened by the Commission.

(vii) Compliance as to Form. Without independent verification of the factual accuracy, completeness or fairness of any statements made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, each of the Registration Statement, on the Effective Date, and the Prospectus, when filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) and on each Closing Date (except for the financial statements and financial schedules, and other financial and statistical information included therein, as to which such counsel need not express any opinion) appears on its face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

(viii) No Conflicts. None of the offering, issuance and sale by the Partnership of the Units, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby conflicts with or constitutes a breach or violation of, or a default under (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default), any indenture, contract, mortgage, deed of trust, note agreement, loan agreement, lease or other agreement or instrument filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (including any document filed as an exhibit to any document incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement), which conflicts, breaches, violations or defaults would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (Such counsel is not required to comment or opine as to compliance with any financial covenants or financial ratios contained in any such documents).

(ix) Documents Incorporated by Reference. The documents filed under the Exchange Act (excluding exhibits thereto) and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or any further amendment or supplement thereto made by the Partnership prior to the Closing Date (except for the financial statements and financial schedules and other financial and statistical information included therein, as to which such counsel need express no opinion), when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, appears on its face to be

appropriately responsive in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

(x) Legal Proceedings or Contracts to be Described or Filed. To the knowledge of such counsel, (A) there is no pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving any Teekay Entity or its property of a character required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus that is not disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus as required and (B) there is no agreement, franchise, contract, indenture, lease or other document or instrument of a character that is required to be described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus by the Act or to be filed by the Act as an exhibit to the Registration Statement that is not described or filed as required.

(xi) Investment Company. No Teekay Entity is, nor immediately upon giving effect to the Offering, the sale of the Common Units and the application of the proceeds thereof as described under “Use of Proceeds” in the Prospectus, will be an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

In addition, such counsel shall state that, in the course of such counsel’s participation, as United States counsel to the Partnership, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, such counsel has attended conferences with, among others, representatives of the Underwriters, officers and other representatives of the Teekay Entities and the independent public accountants for the Partnership, at which conferences the contents of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus were discussed. Such counsel shall also state that, without undertaking to determine independently or assuming any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, no facts have come to such counsel’s attention that cause such counsel to believe that: (i) the Registration Statement, as of its Effective Date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) the Disclosure Package, when considered together as of the Applicable Time, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or (iii) the Prospectus, as of its issue date or as of the Closing Date, contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits 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 (except that such counsel need not express any statement or belief with respect to (x) any financial statements, including the notes and schedules thereto and the auditor’s reports, if any thereon or (y) other financial or statistical data included in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus).

(e) The Partnership shall have requested and caused Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Associate General Counsel for Teekay, to have furnished to you a letter, dated the Closing Date and addressed to you, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives, which shall state that such counsel has participated in conferences with officers and other

7. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the sale of the Units provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Teekay Parties to perform any

agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Teekay Parties will reimburse the Underwriters severally through the Representatives on demand for all out of pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been reasonably incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Units.

8. Indemnification and Contribution.

This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Teekay Parties may otherwise have.

(b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Teekay Parties, each of their respective directors, each of their respective officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Teekay Parties within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the indemnity in Section 8(a) from the Teekay Parties to each Underwriter, but only with reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Teekay Parties through the Representatives by or on behalf of such Underwriter specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Underwriters confirm and the Teekay Parties acknowledge that the statements set forth in the last paragraph of the cover page regarding delivery of the Units and, under the heading “Underwriting”: (i) the name of each Underwriter and its participation in the sale of the Units, (ii) the first sentence of the sixth paragraph regarding offers by the Underwriters and selling concessions and (iii) the twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth paragraphs related to stabilization, syndicate covering transactions, penalty bids and discretionary sales in the constitute the only information concerning the Underwriters furnished in writing to the Partnership through the Representatives by or on behalf of the Underwriters specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

(c) 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 the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded 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, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Teekay Parties, severally and jointly, and the Underwriters, severally, agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending the same) (collectively “Losses”) to which one or more of the Teekay Parties and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Teekay Parties on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the Offering; provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the Units) be responsible for any

amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Units purchased by such Underwriter hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Teekay Parties and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Teekay Parties on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Teekay Parties shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Teekay Parties on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Teekay Parties and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 7, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls any of the Teekay Parties within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Teekay Parties who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Teekay Parties shall have the same rights to contribution as the Teekay Parties, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

9. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Units agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the amount of Firm Units set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate amount of Firm Units set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Units which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate amount of Units which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate amount of Units set forth in Schedule I hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Units, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Units, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter or the Teekay Parties. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its

liability, if any, to the Teekay Parties and any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Partnership prior to delivery of and payment for the Units, if at any time prior to such time (i) trading in the Partnership’s Common Units shall have been suspended by the Commission or the NYSE or trading in securities generally on the NYSE shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchange, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal or New York State authorities or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Units as contemplated by the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (in each case exclusive of any supplement thereto).

11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Teekay Parties or their officers and of the Underwriters 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 Underwriter or the Teekay Parties or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Units. The provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

12. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representatives, will be mailed, delivered or telefaxed to (a) Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx and Xxxxx Incorporated, One Bryant Park, New York, New York 10036, attention of Syndicate Department, with copies to Citigroup Global Markets Inc., 380 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000, and UBS Securities LLC, 220 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000; or, (b) if sent to the Partnership, will be mailed, delivered or telefaxed to Teekay Offshore Partners L.P., Teekay House, Bayside Executive Park, West Bay Street and Blake Road, P.O.

16. Judicial Proceedings.

(a) The Teekay Parties irrevocably (i) agree that any legal suit, action or proceeding against the Teekay Parties arising out of or based upon this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or alleged violations of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States may be instituted in any New York court, (ii) waive, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding in any New York court and (iii) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Each of the Teekay Parties has appointed Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx, New York, New York, as its authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”), upon whom process may be served in any such action arising out of or based on this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any alleged violation of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States which may be instituted in any New York court, expressly consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in respect of any such action, and waives any other requirements of or objections to personal jurisdiction with respect thereto. Such appointment shall be irrevocable. The Teekay Parties represent and warrant that the Authorized Agent has agreed to act as such agent for service of process and agrees to take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect as aforesaid. Service of process upon the Authorized Agent and written notice of such service to the Teekay Parties shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon the Teekay Parties.

(b) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than United States dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Underwriters could purchase United States dollars with such other currency in the City of New York on the business day proceeding that on which final judgment is given. The obligations of the Teekay Parties in respect of any sum due from it to the Underwriters shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the first business day, following receipt by the Underwriters of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, on which (and only to the extent that) the Underwriters may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such other currency; if the United States dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to the Underwriters hereunder, the Teekay Parties agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, that the party responsible for such judgment shall indemnify the Underwriters against such loss. If the United States dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to the Underwriters hereunder, the Underwriters agree to pay to the Teekay Parties an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to the Underwriters hereunder.

17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

18. Headings. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.
