Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

1.       Interest. The Partnership promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note from June 7, 2017, or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly in arrears on March 5, June 5, September 5 and December 5 of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing September 5, 2017 and ending on the maturity date. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

If any Interest Payment Date (other than the Interest Payment Date that is also the maturity date) would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the immediately succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that if such Business Day is in the immediately succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date (other than the Interest Payment Date that is also the maturity date) shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. If the maturity date of the Notes would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, the Partnership will pay interest, if any, and principal and premium, if any, on the next immediately succeeding Business Day, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the immediately succeeding Business Day.

“Business Day” means any day (1) that is not a Saturday or Sunday and that is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close in The City of New York and, for any place of payment outside of The City of New York, in such place of payment, and (2) that is also a “London business day”, which is a day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market.

² To be included only if the Note is issued in global form.

A-1

The term “maturity,” when used with respect to a Note, means the date on which the principal of such Note or an installment of principal becomes due and payable as therein provided or as provided in the Indenture, whether at the stated maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, repayment or otherwise.

The interest rate on the Notes will be reset quarterly on March 5, June 5, September 5 and December 5 of each year, as applicable (each, an “Interest Reset Date”). The Notes will bear interest at a rate of three-month LIBOR (as defined below) for the applicable Interest Period or Initial Interest Period (each as defined below) plus 0.70% per annum (70 basis points); provided, that the rate shall not be less than 0.00%. The interest rate for the Initial Interest Period will be three-month LIBOR, determined as of two London business days prior to the original issue date, plus 0.70% per annum (70 basis points). The “Initial Interest Period” will be the period from and including the original issue date to but excluding the initial Interest Payment Date. Thereafter, each “Interest Period” will be the period from and including an Interest Payment Date to but excluding the immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided, that the final Interest Period for the Notes will be the period from and including the Interest Payment Date immediately preceding the maturity date of such Notes to but excluding the maturity date.

If any Interest Reset Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, the Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the immediately succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that if that Business Day is in the immediately succeeding calendar month, the Interest Reset Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day.

The interest rate in effect on each day will be (i) if that day is an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date (as defined below) applicable to such Interest Reset Date or (ii) if that day is not an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date applicable to the most recent Interest Reset Date or the original issue date, as the case may be.

The interest rate applicable to each Interest Period commencing on the related Interest Reset Date, or the original issue date in the case of the Initial Interest Period, will be the rate determined as of the applicable Interest Determination Date. The “Interest Determination Date” will be the second London business day immediately preceding the original issue date, in the case of the Initial Interest Period, or thereafter, the second London business day immediately preceding such Interest Reset Date.

Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, or its successor appointed by the Partnership, will act as calculation agent. Three-month LIBOR will be determined by the calculation agent as of the applicable Interest Determination Date in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) With respect to an Interest Determination Date, LIBOR will be the rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having a maturity of three months commencing on the Interest Reset Date that appears on the designated LIBOR page as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that Interest Determination Date. If no rate appears, LIBOR, in respect of that Interest Determination Date, will be determined as follows: the Partnership shall request the principal London offices of each of four major reference banks (which may include affiliates of Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated) in the London interbank market, as selected and identified by the Partnership to provide the calculation agent with such bank’s offered quotation (expressed as a percentage per annum) for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of three months, commencing on the Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in that market at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, then LIBOR on that Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of those quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, then LIBOR on the Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates (expressed as a percentage per annum) quoted to the calculation agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Interest Determination Date by three major banks (which may include affiliates of Xxxxxxx Lynch, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated) in The City of New York requested, selected and identified by the Partnership for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, having a three-month maturity and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in that market at that time; provided, however, that if the banks selected and identified by the Partnership are not providing quotations in the manner described by this sentence, LIBOR for such Interest Determination Date will be LIBOR determined with respect to the immediately preceding Interest Determination Date.

A-2

(ii) The designated LIBOR page is the Reuters screen “LIBOR01”, or any successor service for the purpose of displaying the London interbank rates of major banks for U.S. dollars. The Reuters screen “LIBOR01” is the display designated as the Reuters screen “LIBOR01”, or such other page as may replace the Reuters screen “LIBOR01” on that service or such other service or services as may be nominated for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (“IBA”) or its successor or such other entity assuming the responsibility of IBA or its successor in calculating the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) in the event IBA or its successor no longer does so.

All percentages resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for the Notes will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) would be rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655)), and all dollar amounts will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward. Any percentage resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for the Notes less than 0.00% will be deemed to be 0.00% (or ..0000).

Promptly upon such determination, the calculation agent will notify the Partnership and the Trustee (if the calculation agent is not the Trustee) of the interest rate for the new Interest Period. Upon request of a Holder of the Notes, the calculation agent will provide to such Holder the interest rate in effect on the date of such request and, if determined, the interest rate for the next Interest Period.

A-3

All calculations made by the calculation agent for the purposes of calculating interest on the Notes shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders and the Partnership, absent manifest errors.

The interest rate on the Notes will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified by United States law of general application. Additionally, the interest rate on the Notes will in no event be lower than zero.

2.       Method of Payment. The Partnership shall pay interest on the Notes of this series to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the February 21, May 21, August 21 and November 21 next preceding the Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day), even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.17 of the Base Indenture with respect to Defaulted Interest, and the Partnership shall pay principal (and premium, if any) of the Notes upon surrender thereof to the Trustee or а paying agent. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in New York, New York, or, at the option of the Partnership, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the Debt Security Register of Holders, and provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on, each Global Security and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Partnership or the paying agent prior to the applicable record date. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

3.       Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as paying agent and Registrar. The Partnership may change any paying agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

4.       Indenture. The Partnership has issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of June 9, 2011 (the “Original Indenture”), as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 30, 2014 (the “Third Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Original Indenture, the “Base Indenture”), and by the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 7, 2017 (the “Supplemental Indenture”), between the Partnership and the Trustee. The Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, is referred to herein as the “Indenture.” The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for а statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes of this series are obligations of the Partnership initially in aggregate principal amount of $400,000,000. The Partnership may issue an unlimited aggregate principal amount of Additional Notes under the Indenture. Any such Additional Notes that are actually issued shall be treated as issued and outstanding Notes (and as the same series as the initial Notes, with identical terms other than with respect to the issue date, the date of first payment of interest, if applicable, and the payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date) for all purposes of the Indenture, including waivers, amendments and redemptions.

6.       Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture.

8.       Amendment and Supplement. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of а majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes. Without the consent of any Holder of а Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented for any of the purposes set forth in Section 9.01 of the Base Indenture, including to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for the assumption of the Partnership’s obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of а merger or consolidation of the Partnership or the disposition of all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets, to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of the Notes, to permit the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, to evidence or provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture of а successor Trustee or to establish the form or terms of any other series of Debt Securities.

9.       Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default with respect to the Notes of this series are as follows: (i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes; (ii) default in payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes at maturity or otherwise; (iii) failure by the Partnership for 60 days after notice to comply with any of its other agreements in the Indenture; and (iv) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Partnership. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes of this series may declare all the Notes of this series to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Partnership, all Outstanding Notes of this series shall ipso facto become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of а majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes of this series may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. If and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or а trust committee of directors or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith so determines, the Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default (except а Default relating to the payment of principal premium, if any, or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests. The Holders of а majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series then Outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes of this series waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences, except а continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, the principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes of this series or except as otherwise specified in Section 6.06 of the Base Indenture. The Partnership is required to deliver to the Trustee annually an Officers’ Certificate regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Partnership is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default.
