The failure or waiver of performance under any Transaction Agreement by any Purchaser, or on its behalf, does not excuse performance by any other Purchaser. Nothing contained in any Transaction Agreement, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the Registration Rights Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose; provided that any enforcement of an indemnity claim may only be initiated by holders of a majority of the Purchased Units then outstanding. The failure or waiver of performance by any Purchaser does not excuse performance by any other Purchaser.

SECTION 3.12
Absence of Labor Dispute. No labor problem or dispute with the employees of Mid-Con Energy Operating exists or, to the knowledge of any of the Partnership Entities, is threatened or imminent, and the Partnership is not aware of any existing or imminent labor disturbance by the employees of any of the principal suppliers, contractors or customers of the Partnership Entities that would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Partnership Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.13
Possession of Intellectual Property. The Partnership Entities own, possess, license or have adequate rights to use, on reasonable terms, all material patents, patent rights, patent applications, licenses, inventions, copyrights, inventions, know-how (including trade secrets and other unpatented and/or unpatentable proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures), trademarks, service marks, trade and service xxxx registrations, trade names, service names, software, internet addresses, domain names and other intellectual property that is described in the SEC Documents or that is necessary for the conduct of their respective businesses as currently conducted or as proposed to be conducted and as described in the SEC Documents, except where the failure to have such licenses or rights to use such intellectual property would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Partnership Material Adverse Effect.

The Partnership Entities are in compliance with the terms and conditions of such Permits, except where the failure to so comply would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Partnership Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.15
Title to Property. The Operating Subsidiary has (a) good, valid and defensible title to the interests in the oil and gas Properties supporting the estimates of its net proved reserves contained in the SEC Documents, (b) good and indefeasible title to all real property owned by it, other than the oil and gas Properties covered by clause (a), and (c) good title to all personal property described in the SEC Documents as being owned by it, in each case free and clear of all Liens except (i) such as are described in the SEC Documents, (ii) such as arise in connection with the Credit Agreement, or (iii) such as do not (individually or in the aggregate) materially interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such Properties by the Partnership Entities as described in the SEC Documents. The working interests derived from oil, gas and mineral leases or mineral interests, which constitute a portion of the real property held or leased by the Operating Subsidiary, reflect in all material respects the right of the Operating Subsidiary to explore for, develop and produce hydrocarbons from such real property, and the care taken by the Operating Subsidiary and any of its predecessors in interest who are or were affiliates of the Partnership Entities with respect to acquiring or otherwise procuring such leases or mineral interests was generally consistent with standard industry practices in the areas in which the Operating Subsidiary and any of its predecessors who are or were affiliates of the Partnership Entities operates for acquiring or procuring leases and interests therein to explore for, develop and produce hydrocarbons. All real property and buildings held under lease or sublease by the Operating Subsidiary, except the oil and gas Properties covered by clause (a) above (the “Leased and Subleased Properties”), are held by it under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases or subleases, as the case may be, subject to exceptions that do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such Leased and Subleased Properties by the Operating Subsidiary as described in the SEC Documents, and all such leases and subleases are in full force and effect. The Operating Subsidiary has not received any notice of any claim that has been asserted by anyone adverse to the rights of the Operating Subsidiary under any of the leases or subleases mentioned in the prior sentence above or affecting or questioning the rights of the Operating Subsidiary to the continued possession of the Leased and Subleased Properties under any such lease or sublease except for such claims that would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Partnership Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.16
Reserve Estimates. The historical information underlying the estimates of oil and gas reserves of the Partnership Entities, which were supplied by the Partnership Entities to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx for purposes of auditing the reserve information included in the SEC Documents, including, without limitation, production, volumes and rates, costs of operation and development, current prices for production, agreements relating to current and future operations and sales of production, was true and correct in all material respects on the dates of such reserve reports and was prepared in all material respects in accordance with customary industry practices. Other than normal production of the reserves, intervening market commodity price fluctuations, fluctuations in demand for such products, adverse weather conditions, unavailability or increased costs of rigs, equipment, supplies or personnel, the timing of third party operations and other factors, in each case as described in the SEC Documents, the Partnership is not aware of any facts or circumstances that (i) would result in a material adverse change in the aggregate net reserves, or the present value of future net cash flows therefrom, as described in the SEC Documents, or (ii) cause them to believe that such estimates do not fairly reflect the oil and gas reserves of the Partnership Entities. Estimates of such reserves and present values as described in the SEC Documents comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of Regulation S-X and Subpart 1200 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.

SECTION 3.17
No Preemptive Rights. The holders of outstanding Common Units are not entitled to preemptive rights to subscribe for (a) any of the Class A Convertible Preferred Units to be issued and sold to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement or (b) the Conversion Units to be issued upon conversion of the Class A Convertible Preferred Units.

The Partnership expects to meet the gross income requirements of Section 7704(c)(2) of the Code for its taxable year ending December 31, 2016.

SECTION 3.20
No Registration Required. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchasers contained in this Agreement and their compliance with the agreements set forth in this Agreement, the sale and issuance of the Purchased Units (and the Conversion Units) pursuant to this Agreement is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and neither the Partnership nor, to the Partnership’s knowledge, any authorized Representative acting on its behalf has taken or will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemption. The issuance and sale of the Purchased Units and the issuance of the Conversion Units upon conversion of the Class A Convertible Preferred Units do not contravene the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ.

SECTION 3.21
No Integration. Neither the Partnership nor any of its Affiliates has, directly or indirectly through any Representative, made any offers or sales of any security of the Partnership or solicited any offers to buy any security that is or will be integrated with the sale of the Purchased Units in a manner that would require the offer and sale of the Purchased Units to be registered under the Securities Act.

SECTION 3.25
Insurance. The Partnership Entities maintain, or are entitled to the benefits of, insurance covering their Properties, operations, personnel and businesses against such losses and risks as is reasonably adequate to protect them and their businesses in a manner consistent with other businesses similarly situated in similar industries. All policies of insurance insuring the Partnership Entities or any of their respective businesses, assets, employees, officers and directors are in full force and effect as of the date hereof; and the Partnership Entities are in compliance with the terms of such policies in all material respects.

SECTION 3.26
Compliance with the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act. The General Partner, the Partnership Entities and, to the knowledge of the Partnership, the officers and directors of the General Partner, in their capacities as such are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations promulgated therewith that are effective and applicable to the Partnership.

SECTION 3.27
ERISA Compliance. Each “employee benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA) for which any of the Partnership Entities or any ERISA Affiliate (as defined below) would have any liability (each a “Plan”), including the LTIP, has been maintained in material compliance with its terms and with the material requirements of all applicable statutes, rules and regulations, including ERISA and the Code, and, to the knowledge of the Partnership, each “multiemployer plan” (as defined in Section 4001 of ERISA) to which the Partnership Entities or any ERISA Affiliate contributes (a “Multiemployer Plan”) is in material compliance with all applicable statutes, rules and regulations, including ERISA and the Code. None of the Partnership Entities or any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any material liability under (i) Title IV of ERISA with respect to termination of, or withdrawal from, any “employee benefit plan” or (ii) Sections 412, 4971 or 4975 of the Code. Except where noncompliance would not reasonably be expected to have a Partnership Material Adverse Effect, each “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by the Partnership Entities or any ERISA Affiliate that is intended to be qualified under Section 401 of the Code is so qualified and nothing has occurred, whether by action or failure to act, which would be reasonably likely to cause the loss of such qualification.

SECTION 3.28
No Restrictions on Distributions. None of the Partnership Entities is a party to or otherwise bound by any instrument or agreement that limits or prohibits or could limit or prohibit, directly or indirectly, the Partnership from redeeming the Purchased Units pursuant to their terms or making distributions on the Purchased Units or the Conversion Units, and no Partnership Entity is a party to or otherwise bound by any instrument or agreement that limits or prohibits or could limit or prohibit, directly or indirectly, any Partnership Entity from making distributions on its limited or general partnership interests, limited liability company interests, or other equity interest, as the case may be, except in each case (a) pursuant to the Credit Agreement, (b) for prohibitions mandated by the Laws of the jurisdiction of formation of such Subsidiary and (c) as described in the SEC Documents.

SECTION 3.29

SECTION 4.02
No Consents; Violations, Etc.

SECTION 4.03
Investment. The Purchased Units are being acquired for such Purchaser’s own account, or the accounts of clients for whom such Purchaser exercises discretionary investment authority, not as a nominee or agent, and with no present intention of distributing the Purchased Units or any part thereof, and such Purchaser has no present intention of selling or granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same, in any transaction in violation of the securities Laws of the United States of America or any state, without prejudice, however, to such Purchaser’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Purchased Units or the Conversion Units under a registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities Laws or under an exemption from such registration available thereunder (including, without limitation, if available, Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act).

The Partnership agrees to indemnify each Purchaser and its Representatives (collectively, “Purchaser Related Parties”) (a) from costs, losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses, and (b) hold each of them harmless against, any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries), demands, and causes of action as a result of, arising out of, or in any way related to the breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of the Partnership contained herein or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Partnership hereunder, and in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay or reimburse each of them for all costs, losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or asserted against or involve any of them (whether or not a party thereto), provided that such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of any representation or warranty is made prior to the expiration of such representations or warranties to the extent applicable.

SECTION 7.02
Indemnification by Purchasers. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify the Partnership, the General Partner and their respective Representatives (collectively, “Partnership Related Parties”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation, or inquiries), demands and causes of action and, in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay or reimburse each of them for all costs, losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or asserted against or involve any of them as a result of, arising out of, or in any way related to the breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of such Purchaser contained herein or in any certificate or instrument delivered by such Purchaser hereunder; provided that such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of any representation or warranty is made prior to the expiration of such representation or warranty; and provided further, that in no event will such Purchaser be liable under this Section 7.02 for any amount in excess of its Purchase Price.

SECTION 7.03
Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after any Partnership Related Party or Purchaser Related Party (hereinafter, the “Indemnified Party”) has received notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by a third party, which the Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an indemnifiable claim under this Agreement (each a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall give the indemnitor hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding, but failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Such notice shall state the nature and the basis of such claim to the extent then known. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, any such matter as long as the Indemnifying Party pursues the same diligently and in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend or settle, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in all commercially reasonable respects in the defense thereof and the settlement thereof. Such cooperation shall include furnishing the Indemnifying Party with any books, records and other information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or control. Such cooperation of the Indemnified Party shall be at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for so long as the Indemnifying Party diligently pursues such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement thereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any indemnified claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, involves no admission of wrongdoing or malfeasance by, and includes a complete release from liability of, the Indemnified Party.

SECTION 7.04
Tax Treatment. All indemnification payments under this ARTICLE VII shall be adjustments to the Per Unit Price except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

SECTION 8.10
Termination.

(b)
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall automatically terminate at any time at or prior to the Closing:

(i)
if a statute, rule, order, decree or regulation shall have been enacted or promulgated, or if any action shall have been taken by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction which permanently restrains, precludes, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or makes the transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal; or

The existence of this right will not preclude any such Party from pursuing any other rights and remedies at law or in equity that such Party may have.
