Except where the context otherwise requires, “Base Prospectus,” as used herein, means the prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement, together with any amendments or supplements thereto as of the date of this Agreement. Except where the context otherwise requires, “Prospectus Supplement,” as used herein, means the final prospectus supplement relating to the Units, filed by the Partnership with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act in connection with the offering of the Units. Except where the context otherwise requires, “Prospectus,” as used herein, means the Prospectus Supplement together with the Base Prospectus. “Permitted Free Writing Prospectuses,” as used herein, means the documents listed on Schedule B hereto.

SECTION 3: Sale and Delivery of Units. (a) On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Partnership agrees to issue and sell through or to the Managers, as sales agents and/or principals, as and when it provides instructions, in its discretion, for the sale of Units, and each Manager agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations, to sell, as sales agent for the Partnership, the Units on the following terms.

(i) The Units are to be sold by one of the Managers on a daily basis or otherwise as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Partnership and the Managers on any trading day for the NYSE (other than a day on which the NYSE is scheduled to close prior to its regular weekday closing time) (each, a “Trading Day”), on which (A) the Partnership, through any of the individuals listed as authorized representatives of the Partnership on Schedule F hereto (the “Authorized Partnership Representatives”), has instructed any Manager by telephone (confirmed promptly by electronic mail, with a copy to each of the other Authorized Partnership Representatives at such time) to make such sales and (B) the Partnership has satisfied its obligations under Sections 4, 5 and 6 hereof. On a Trading Day that the Partnership wishes to sell Units, the Partnership may sell Units through only one Manager and, if it determines to do so, the Partnership will designate in a notice delivered by electronic mail substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 3(a)(i) the maximum amount of the Units to be sold by such Manager daily as agreed to by such Manager (in any event not in excess of the amount available for issuance under the Prospectus and the Registration Statement or in an amount in excess of the amount of Units authorized from time to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement), any minimum price below which sales of Units may not be effected and any other limitations specified by the Partnership and mutually agreed by such Manager. On any Trading Day, the Partnership shall give at least one business day’s prior notice by telephone (confirmed promptly by electronic mail) to the Manager as to any change of the Manager through whom sales of Units as sales agent will be

made. The Manager through whom sales of Units as sales agent are then being made pursuant to this Section 3(a) is referred to as the “Selling Manager”. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing limitation shall not apply to sales solely to employees or other security holders of the Partnership or the Partnership Parties or to a trustee or other person acquiring Units for the accounts of such persons in which any of the Managers are acting for the Partnership in a capacity other than as Manager under this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 3(a), the Managers may sell Units by any method permitted by law deemed to be an At the Market Offering, in block or negotiated transactions, or as otherwise agreed between the Partnership and the Selling Manager, including, without limitation, sales made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions, to or through a market maker at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 3(a) and the other terms and conditions specified herein (including, without limitation, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Partnership Parties and the performance by the Partnership of its covenants and other obligations contained herein and the satisfaction of the additional conditions specified in Section 6 hereof), the applicable Manager shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to offer and sell all of the Units designated; provided, however, that the Managers shall have no obligation to offer or sell any Units, and the Partnership acknowledges and agrees that the Managers shall have no such obligation, in the event that an offer or sale of the Units on behalf of the Partnership may in the reasonable judgment of a Manager constitute the sale of a “block” under Rule 10b-18(a)(5) under the Exchange Act or a “distribution” within the meaning of Rule 100 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act or such Manager reasonably believes that it may be deemed to be an “underwriter” under the Act in a transaction that is other than by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions between members of the NYSE that qualify for delivery of a Prospectus to the NYSE in accordance with Rule 153 under the Act (such transactions are hereinafter referred to as “At the Market Offerings”).

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Partnership, through any of the Authorized Partnership Representatives, may instruct the Managers by telephone (confirmed promptly by electronic mail) not to sell the Units if such sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by the Partnership in any such instruction. In addition, the Partnership or Managers may, upon notice to the other party hereto by telephone (confirmed promptly by electronic mail), suspend the offering of the Units for a specified period (a “Suspension Period”); provided, however, that such Suspension Period shall not affect or impair the parties’ respective obligations with respect to the Units sold hereunder prior to the giving of such notice and provided, further, that there shall be no obligations under Sections 4(m), 4(n), 4(o) and 4(p) with respect to the delivery of certificates, opinions, or comfort letters to the Managers during a Suspension Period and that such obligations shall, if applicable, recommence on the termination of the Suspension Period.

(iii) Each of the Managers hereby covenants and agrees not to make any sales of the Units on behalf of the Partnership pursuant to Section 3(a) of this Agreement, other than (A) by means of At the Market Offerings or (B) such other sales of the Units on behalf of the Partnership in its capacity as agent of the Partnership as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Partnership and such Manager.

(iv) The compensation to each Manager, as an agent of the Partnership, for sales of the Units shall be at a mutually agreed rate, not to exceed 2% of the gross sales price of the Units sold pursuant to this Section 3(a). At each Manager’s election, such commission and any deduction for any transaction fees, transfer taxes or similar taxes or fees imposed by any governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales shall either be (1) set forth and invoiced in periodic statements from such Manager to the Partnership, with payment to be made by the Partnership promptly after its receipt thereof or (2) deducted by the Manager from the gross sales price of the Units sold. The gross sales price of the Units sold less the applicable Manager’s commission, and after deduction for any transaction fees, transfer taxes or similar taxes or fees imposed by any governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales, shall constitute the net proceeds to the Partnership for such Units (the “Net Proceeds”).

(v) The Selling Manager shall provide written confirmation to the Partnership (which may be by electronic mail) as soon as is reasonably practicable following the close of trading on the NYSE each day in which the Units are sold pursuant to this Section 3(a) setting forth (i) the number of Units sold on such day, (ii) the aggregate gross sales proceeds and the Net Proceeds to the Partnership, and (iii) the compensation payable by the Partnership to such Selling Manager with respect to such sales.

(vi) Settlement for sales of the Units pursuant to this Section 3(a) will occur on the second Trading Day (or such other day as may, from time to time, become standard industry practice for settlement of such securities issuance or as agreed to by the Partnership and the Selling Manager) following the date on which such sales are made (each such date, a “Settlement Date”). On each Settlement Date, the Units sold through a Manager for settlement on such date shall be issued and delivered by the Partnership to such Manager against payment of the Net Proceeds for the sale of such Units. Settlement for all such Units shall be effected by free delivery of the Units by the Partnership or its transfer agent to such Manager’s account, or to the account of such Manager’s designee, at The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian System (“DWAC”) or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto, which in all cases shall be freely tradable, transferable, registered units in good deliverable form, in return for payments in same day funds delivered to the account designated by the Partnership. If the Partnership, or its transfer agent (if applicable), shall default upon its obligation to deliver the Units on any Settlement Date, in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in

Section 7(a) hereof, the Partnership shall (A) indemnify and hold such Manager harmless against any loss, claim or damage arising from or as a result of such default by the Partnership and (B) pay such Manager any commission to which it would otherwise be entitled absent such default. The Authorized Partnership Representatives shall be the contact persons for the Partnership for all matters related to the settlement of the transfer of the Units through DWAC for purposes of this Section 3(a)(vi).

(vii) At each Representation Date the Partnership Parties shall be deemed to have affirmed each representation and warranty contained in this Agreement. Any obligation of any Manager to use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Units on behalf of the Partnership shall be subject to the continuing accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Partnership Parties herein, to the performance by the Partnership of its obligations hereunder and to the continuing satisfaction of the additional conditions specified in Section 6 hereof.

(b) If the Partnership wishes to issue and sell the Units other than as set forth in Section 3(a) hereof, it will notify a Manager of the proposed terms of such issuance and sale (each, a “Placement”). If such Manager, acting as principal, wishes to accept such proposed terms (which it may decline to do for any reason in its sole discretion) or, following discussions with the Partnership, wishes to accept amended terms, the Partnership Parties and such Manager will enter into a Terms Agreement setting forth the terms of such Placement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Terms Agreement, the terms of such Terms Agreement will control.

(c) Under no circumstances shall the aggregate gross sales proceeds of the Units sold pursuant to this Agreement exceed the lesser of (A) the amount set forth in Section 1 hereof and (B) the amount available for offer and sale under the Registration Statement, nor shall the aggregate amount of Units sold pursuant to this Agreement exceed the amount of Units authorized to be issued and sold from time to time under this Agreement by the board of directors of the general partner of the Partnership, or a duly authorized committee thereof, and notified to the Managers in writing. The Managers shall have no responsibility for maintaining records with respect to Units available for sale under the Registration Statement or for determining the aggregate gross sales price, number or minimum price of Units duly authorized by the Partnership.

(d) Each sale of the Units through or to any Manager shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or, if applicable, a Terms Agreement. The applicable Manager’s commitment, if any, to purchase Units from the Partnership as principal shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Partnership Parties, and performance by the Partnership of its covenants and other obligations, herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth. At the time of each Terms Agreement, the applicable Manager shall specify the requirements, if any, for the officers’ certificate, opinions and letters of counsel and accountants pursuant to Section 4(m), (n), (o) and (p), respectively, hereof.

(e) Subject to the limitations set forth herein and as may be mutually agreed upon by the Partnership and the Managers, sales effected pursuant to this Agreement may not be requested by the Partnership and shall not be made by any Manager (i) during the period beginning on the day after the last day of each fiscal quarter and prior to the date (each, an “Announcement Date”) on which the Partnership shall issue a press release containing, or shall otherwise publicly announce, its earnings, revenues or other results of operations for such quarter (each, an “Earnings Announcement”), (ii) at any time from and including an Announcement Date through and including the later to occur of (A) the time that is 24 hours after the time that the Partnership files a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or an Annual Report on Form 10-K that includes consolidated financial statements as of and for the same period or periods, as the case may be, covered by such Earnings Announcement, and (B) the applicable Bring-Down Delivery Date of the Partnership referenced in Section 4(m) below, or (iii) during any other period in which the Partnership is, or could be deemed to be, in possession of material non-public information.

(f) Notwithstanding clause (ii) of Section 3(e) hereof, if the Partnership wishes to request the offer or sale of any Units by a Manager at any time during the period from and including an Announcement Date through and including 24 hours after the time that the Partnership files a Quarterly Report on Form 10–Q or an Annual Report on Form 10–K that includes consolidated financial statements as of and for the same period or periods, as the case may be, covered by such Earnings Announcement, (i) unless the Partnership has previously filed a Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to Item 2.02 (provided that the information included in such Form 8-K is deemed “filed” under the Exchange Act and not furnished), the Partnership shall prepare and deliver to such Manager (with a copy to counsel for the Managers) a Current Report on Form 8–K that includes substantially the same financial and related information (together with management’s discussion and analysis thereof) included in such Earnings Announcement (other than any earnings projections and similar forward-looking data and officers’ quotations) (each, an “Earnings 8–K”), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Manager, and, prior to its filing, obtain the written consent of such Manager to such filing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), (ii) if applicable, such Manager shall have received the officer’s certificate, opinions and letters of counsel and Comfort Letters specified in Sections 4(m), 4(n), 4(o) and 4(p) hereof (except in each case, as may be otherwise agreed by such Managers), (iii) the Partnership shall afford such Manager the opportunity to conduct a due diligence review in accordance with Section 4(t) hereof prior to filing such Earnings 8–K and (iv) the Partnership shall file such Earnings 8–K with the Commission. For purposes of clarity, the parties hereto agree that (A) the delivery of any officer’s certificate, opinion or letter of counsel or accountants’ letter pursuant to this Section 3(f) shall not relieve any party to this Agreement from any of its obligations under this Agreement with respect to any Quarterly Report on Form 10–Q or Annual Report on Form 10–K, as the case may be, including, without limitation, the obligation to deliver officer’s certificates, opinions and letters of counsel and Comfort Letters as provided in Sections 4(m), 4(n), 4(o) and 4(p) hereof, if applicable, and (B) this Section 3(f) shall in no way affect or limit the operation of clauses (i) and (iii) of Section 3(e) hereof, which shall have independent application.

(g) The Partnership acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that any Manager will be successful in selling the Units, (ii) no Manager will incur liability or obligation to the Partnership or any other person or entity if it does not sell Units for any reason other than a failure by such Manager to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations to sell such Units in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (iii) no Manager shall be under any obligation to purchase Units on a principal basis pursuant to this Agreement except as otherwise specifically agreed by such Manager and the Partnership pursuant to a Terms Agreement.

(a) During the period in which a prospectus relating to the Units is required to be delivered under the Act (whether physically, deemed to be delivered pursuant to Rule 153 or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Act or any similar rule), to notify the Managers promptly of the time when any amendment to the Registration Statement has become effective or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus has been filed; to prepare and file with the Commission, promptly upon the Managers’ request, any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus that, in the Managers’ reasonable opinion, may be necessary or advisable in connection with the offer of the Units by the Managers; and to cause each amendment or supplement to the Prospectus to be filed with the Commission as required pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) of the Act.

(b) To promptly advise the Managers, confirming such advice in writing (which may be made by electronic mail), of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus or for additional information with respect thereto, or of notice of examination, institution of proceedings for, or the entry of a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and, if the Commission should enter a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the lifting or removal of such order as soon as possible; to promptly advise the Managers of any proposal to amend or supplement the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus, and to provide the Managers and counsel for the Managers copies of any such documents (excluding any documents incorporated or deemed incorporated therein by reference) for review and comment in a reasonable amount of time prior to any proposed filing and to file no such amendment or supplement (other than any prospectus supplement relating to the offering of other securities (including, without limitation, Common Units)) to which the Managers shall have reasonably objected in writing.

(c) To make available to the Managers, as soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement, and thereafter from time to time to furnish to the Managers, as many copies of the Prospectus (or of the Prospectus as amended or supplemented at such time if the Partnership shall have made any amendments or supplements thereto) as the Managers may

reasonably request; in case the Managers are required to deliver (whether physically, deemed to be delivered pursuant to Rule 153 or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Act or any similar rule), in connection with the sale of the Units, a prospectus after the nine-month period referred to in Section 10(a)(3) of the Act, or after the time a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is required pursuant to Item 512(a) of Regulation S-K under the Act, the Partnership will prepare, at its expense, such amendment or amendments to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as may be necessary to ensure compliance with the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Act or Item 512(a) of Regulation S-K under the Act, as the case may be.

(d) Subject to Section 4(b) hereof, to file promptly all reports and documents and any preliminary or definitive proxy or information statement required to be filed by the Partnership with the Commission in order to comply with the Exchange Act for so long as a prospectus relating to the Units is required by the Act to be delivered (whether physically, deemed to be delivered pursuant to Rule 153 or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Act or any similar rule) in connection with any sale of Units.

(e) To promptly notify the Managers of the happening of any event that could require the making of any change in the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented so that the Prospectus would not include an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, and, during any period during which a prospectus is required to be delivered (whether physically, deemed to be delivered pursuant to Rule 153 or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Act or any similar rule) in connection with any sale of Units, to prepare and furnish, at the Partnership’s expense, to each Manager promptly such amendments or supplements to such Prospectus as may be necessary to reflect any such change in such quantities as such Manager may reasonably request.

fact contained in the Registration Statement (or in the Registration Statement as amended by any post-effective amendment thereof by the Partnership) or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Manager to the Partnership expressly for use in, the Registration Statement or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in the Registration Statement in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or was necessary to make such information not misleading, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished consists of the information described in subsection (b) below, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any Prospectus (the term Prospectus for the purpose of this Section 7 being deemed to include the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus and any amendments or supplements to the foregoing), in any “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433 under the Act) of the Partnership, in any road show as defined under Rule 433(h) under the Act (a “road show”) or in any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except, with respect to such Prospectus, insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Manager to the Partnership expressly for use in, such Prospectus or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Prospectus in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished consists of the information described in subsection (b) below.

If any action, suit or proceeding (together, a “Proceeding”) is brought against any Manager or any such person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Partnership Parties pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, such Manager or such person shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and the Partnership Parties shall assume the defense of such Proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the omission to so notify the Partnership Parties shall not relieve the Partnership Parties from any liability which the Partnership Parties may have to such Manager or any such person or otherwise except to the extent the Partnership was materially prejudiced by such omission (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses). The Manager or such person shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Manager or of such person unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Partnership Parties in connection with the defense of such Proceeding or the

Partnership Parties shall not have, within a reasonable period of time in light of the circumstances, employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such Proceeding or such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to the Partnership Parties (in which case the Partnership Parties shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by the Partnership Parties, and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that the Partnership Parties shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such Proceeding). The Partnership Parties shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent but, if settled with the written consent of the Partnership Parties, the Partnership Parties agree to indemnify and hold harmless the relevant Manager and any such person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested the Partnership to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second sentence of this paragraph, then the Partnership Parties agree that it shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 business days after receipt by the Partnership Parties of the aforesaid request, (ii) the Partnership Parties shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such indemnified party shall have given the indemnifying party at least 30 days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. The Partnership Parties shall not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or may be a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

(b) Each Manager, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Partnership Parties, their respective partners, employees, agents, members, directors and each officer that signed the Registration Statement, each person, if any, who controls any Partnership Party within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing persons from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including, without limitation, the reasonable cost of investigation and any legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any suit, action, investigation or proceeding or any claim asserted), joint or several, which the Partnership or any such person may incur under the Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Manager furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Manager to the Partnership or General Partner expressly for use with reference to such Manager in the Registration Statement (or in the Registration Statement as amended by any post-effective amendment thereof by the Partnership), or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Registration Statement in connection with such information, which

material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or was necessary to make such information not misleading or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Manager furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Manager to the Partnership or General Partner expressly for use with reference to such Manager in the Prospectus, in any road show or in any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact therein in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case, it being understood and agreed upon that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Manager consists of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Manager: (i) the last sentence in the second paragraph under “Plan of Distribution” and (ii) the information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of the Managers under “Plan of Distribution—Other Relationships.”

If any Proceeding is brought against any of the Partnership Parties or any such person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Manager pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, such Partnership Party or such person shall promptly notify such Manager in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and such Manager shall assume the defense of such Proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the omission to so notify such Manager shall not relieve such Manager from any liability which such Manager may have to the Partnership Party or any such person or otherwise. The Partnership Party or such person shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Partnership Party or such person unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the relevant Manager in connection with the defense of such Proceeding or such Manager shall not have, within a reasonable period of time in light of the circumstances, employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such Proceeding or such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to such Manager (in which case such Manager shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or parties, but such Manager may employ counsel and participate in the defense thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Manager), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by such Manager and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that such Manager shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such Proceeding). The relevant Manager shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without the written consent of such Manager but, if settled with the written consent of such Manager or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, such Manager agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership Parties and any such person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested the relevant Manager to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second sentence of this paragraph, then such Manager agrees that it shall

be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 business days after receipt by such Manager of the aforesaid request, (ii) such Manager shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such indemnified party shall have given such Manager at least 30 days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. The relevant Manager shall not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable to an indemnified party under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 7 or insufficient to hold an indemnified party harmless in respect of any losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Partnership Parties, on the one hand, and the relevant Manager, on the other hand, from the offering of the Units or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Partnership Parties, on the one hand, and of such Manager, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Partnership Parties, on the one hand, and the relevant Manager, on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total proceeds from the offering (net of commissions paid hereunder but before deducting expenses) received by the Partnership Parties, and the total commissions received by such Manager hereunder, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Units. The relative fault of the Partnership Parties, on the one hand, and of the relevant Manager, on the other, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Partnership Parties or by such Manager and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, damages, expenses, liabilities and claims referred to in this subsection (c) shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any Proceeding.

(d) The Partnership Parties and each Manager agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in subsection (c) above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Manager shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of commissions

received by it under this Agreement. 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.

(e) The Partnership Parties and each Manager agree promptly to notify each other of the commencement of any Proceeding against it and, in the case of the Partnership Parties, against any of the Partnership Parties’ officers or directors in connection with the issuance and sale of the Units, or in connection with the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus.

SECTION 8: Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in Section 7 hereof and the covenants, warranties and representations of the Partnership Parties contained in this Agreement or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Manager, its partners, employees, agents, members, directors or officers or any person (including each partner, officer or director of such person) who controls such Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act or any “affiliate” (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Act) of such Manager, or by or on behalf of the Partnership Parties, their directors or officers or any person who controls the Partnership within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the issuance and delivery of the Units.

SECTION 9: Termination.

(a) The Partnership Parties shall have the right, by giving written notice as hereinafter specified, to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that (i) with respect to any pending sale, through any Manager for the Partnership, the obligations of the Partnership Parties, including in respect of compensation of such Manager, shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination and (ii) the provisions of Sections 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 17, 19 and 23 hereof and the terms of any Letter Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

(b) Each Manager shall have the right, by giving written notice as hereinafter specified, to terminate its own obligations under the provisions of this Agreement relating to the solicitation of offers to purchase the Units in its sole discretion at any time; provided, however, that this Agreement and the obligations hereunder will remain in full force and effect with respect to the Managers that have not so terminated their obligations. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Sections 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 17, 19 and 23 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

(c) This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless terminated pursuant to Sections 9(a) or (b) above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties; provided that any such termination by mutual agreement shall in all cases be deemed to provide that Sections 5, 7 and 8 hereof shall remain in full force and effect.

(d) Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided that such termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by each Manager or the Partnership Parties, as the case may be. If such termination shall occur prior to the Settlement Date for any sale of the Units, such sale shall settle in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(a)(vi) hereof.

(e) Unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Section 9, this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the issuance and sale of all of the Units through any Manager on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, except that Sections 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 17, 19 and 23 shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 10: Notices.

SECTION 11: Parties at Interest. The Agreement herein set forth has been and is made solely for the benefit of the Partnership Parties and the Managers and, to the extent provided in Section 7 hereof, the controlling persons, partners, employees, agents, members, directors and officers, or affiliates referred to in such section, and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, personal representatives and executors and administrators. No other person, partnership, association or corporation (including a purchaser, as such purchaser, through or from any Manager) shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement.

SECTION 12: No Fiduciary Relationship. The Partnership Parties hereby acknowledge that each Manager is acting solely as sales agent and/or principal in connection with the purchase and sale of the Units. The Partnership Parties further acknowledge that each Manager is acting pursuant to a contractual relationship created solely by this Agreement entered into on an arm’s length basis, and, in no event, do the parties intend that any Manager act or be responsible as a fiduciary to the Partnership Parties, the management, unitholders or creditors or any other person in connection with any activity that any Manager may undertake or have undertaken in furtherance of the purchase and sale of the Partnership’s securities, either before or after the date hereof. Each Manager hereby expressly disclaims any fiduciary or similar obligations to the Partnership Parties, either in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions, and the Partnership Parties hereby confirm their understanding and agreement to that effect. The Partnership Parties and each Manager agree that they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any such transactions and that any opinions or views expressed by such Manager to the Partnership Parties regarding such transactions, including, but not limited to, any opinions or views with respect to the price or market for the Partnership’s securities, do not constitute advice or recommendations to the Partnership Parties. The Partnership Parties hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Partnership Parties may have against any Manager with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary or similar duty to the Partnership Parties in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions.

SECTION 13: Press Releases and Disclosure. The Partnership may issue a press release in compliance with Rule 134 under the Act describing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby as soon as practicable following the date hereof and may file with the

Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K describing the material terms of the transaction contemplated hereby, and the Partnership shall consult with the Managers prior to making such disclosures, and the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts, acting in good faith, to agree upon the text of such disclosure that is reasonably satisfactory to all parties. No party hereto shall issue thereafter any press release or like public statement (including, without limitation, any disclosure required in reports filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act) related to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written approval of the other party, except as may be necessary or appropriate in the opinion of the party seeking to make disclosure to comply with the requirements of applicable law or Commission or NYSE rules. If any such press release or like public statement is so required, the party making such disclosure shall consult with the other party prior to making such disclosure, and the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts, acting in good faith, to agree upon the text of such disclosure that is reasonably satisfactory to all parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such approval or consultation shall be required with respect to any disclosure made pursuant to Section 4(s).

SECTION 14: Adjustments for Splits. The parties acknowledge and agree that all unit-related numbers contained in this Agreement shall be adjusted to take into account any split effected with respect to the Units.

SECTION 15: Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any Letter Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other prior and contemporaneous agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof.

SECTION 16: Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed by the parties in one or more counterparts which together shall constitute one and the same agreement among the parties.

SECTION 17: Law; Construction. This Agreement and any claim, counterclaim or dispute of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement, directly or indirectly, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York.

SECTION 18: Headings. The Section headings in this Agreement have been inserted as a matter of convenience of reference and are not a part of this Agreement.

SECTION 19: Submission to Jurisdiction. Except as set forth below, no claim may be commenced, prosecuted or continued in any court other than the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, which courts shall have jurisdiction over the adjudication of such matters, and the Partnership Parties consent to the jurisdiction of such courts and personal service with respect thereto. The Partnership Parties hereby consent to personal jurisdiction, service and venue in any court in which any claim arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement is brought by any third party against any Manager or any indemnified party. Each of the Managers and the Partnership Parties (on its behalf and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on behalf of its unitholders and affiliates) waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) in any way arising out of or relating to this

Agreement. The Partnership Parties agree that a final judgment in any such action, proceeding or counterclaim brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Partnership Parties and may be enforced in any other courts to the jurisdiction of which the Partnership Parties are or may be subject, by suit upon such judgment.

SECTION 20: Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Partnership Parties and each Manager and their respective successors and assigns and any successor or assign of any substantial portion of the Partnership Parties’ and such Manager’s respective businesses and/or assets.

SECTION 21: Patriot Act. In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Managers are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Partnership Parties, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Managers to properly identify their respective clients.

SECTION 22: Miscellaneous. Securities sold, offered or recommended by any Manager are not deposits, are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, are not guaranteed by a branch or agency, and are not otherwise an obligation or responsibility of a branch or agency. Lending affiliates of any Manager have or may in the future have lending relationships with issuers of securities underwritten or privately placed by such Manager. Prospectuses and other disclosure documents for securities underwritten or privately placed by any Manager may disclose the existence of any such lending relationships and whether the proceeds of the issue may be used to repay debts owed to affiliates of such Manager.

SECTION 23: Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

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

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

“BHC Act Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k).

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

(ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

(iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

If the foregoing correctly sets forth the understanding between the Partnership and the Managers, please so indicate in the space provided below for that purpose, whereupon this Agreement and your acceptance shall constitute a binding agreement between the Partnership and the Managers. Alternatively, the execution of this Agreement by the Partnership and its acceptance by or on behalf of the Managers may be evidenced by an exchange of telegraphic or other written communications.
