Section 4.4             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 under a registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities Laws or under an exemption from such registration available thereunder (including, if available, Rule 144 promulgated thereunder). If such Purchaser should in the future decide to dispose of any of the Purchased Units, such Purchaser understands and agrees (a) that it may do so only (i) in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state securities Law, as then in effect, or pursuant to an exemption therefrom or (ii) in the manner contemplated by any registration statement pursuant to which such securities are being offered, and (b) that stop-transfer instructions to that effect will be in effect with respect to such securities.

15

Representatives of BreitBurn regarding such matters including matters with respect to the Hermes Acquisition.

In this connection, such Purchaser represents that it is knowledgeable with respect to Rule 144 of the Commission promulgated under the Securities Act.

They may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of a registration statement in effect with respect to the securities under such Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration thereunder and, in the case of a transaction exempt from registration, unless sold pursuant to Rule 144 under such Act or the issuer has received documentation reasonably satisfactory to it that such transaction does not require registration under such Act.”

Section 4.10           Short Selling. Such Purchaser represents that it has not entered into any Short Sales of the Common Units owned by it between the time it first began discussions with BreitBurn or the Placement Agents about the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the date hereof (it being understood that the entering into of a total return swap should not be considered a short sale of Common Units); provided, however, the above shall not apply, in the case of a Purchaser that is a large multi-unit investment or commercial banking organization, to activities in the normal course of trading units of such Purchaser; provided further that, with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co., Inc. and its Affiliates, the restrictions contained in this Section 4.10 shall only apply to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Strategic Investments, Inc., as currently configured, and shall not restrict or limit the activities of any area or division of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co. or any of its Affiliates, other than ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Strategic Investments, Inc., as currently configured.

Section 4.11           No Side Agreements. Except for the confidentiality agreements and the Registration Rights Agreement entered into by and between such Purchaser and BreitBurn, there are no other agreements by, among or between BreitBurn or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and such Purchaser or its Affiliates, on the other hand, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby nor promises or inducements for future transactions between or among any of such parties.

ARTICLE V

COVENANTS

Section 5.1             Certain Special Allocations of Book and Taxable Income. To the extent that the Common Unit Price is less than the trading price of the Common Units on The Nasdaq Global Market as of the Closing Date, the General Partner intends to specially allocate items of book and taxable income to the Purchasers so that their capital accounts in their Purchased Units are consistent, on a per-unit basis, with the capital accounts of the other holders of Common Units other than Purchased Units (assuring fungibility of all Common Units). Such special allocation will occur upon the earlier to occur of any taxable period of BreitBurn ending upon, or after, (i) a book-up event or book-down event in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of BreitBurn occurring after the date of the issuance of the Purchased Units or (ii) the transfer of a Purchased Unit to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the holder. A Purchaser holding a Purchased Unit shall be required to provide notice to the General Partner of the transfer of a Purchased Unit to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Purchaser no later than the last Business Day of the calendar year during which such transfer occurred, unless by virtue of the application of clause (i) above, the General Partner has determined that the Purchased Units are consistent, on a per-unit basis, with the capital accounts of the other holders of Common Units other than Purchased Units; provided, that such Purchaser may cure any failure to provide such notice by providing such notice within 20 days of the last Business Day of such calendar year; provided, further, that the sole and exclusive remedy for any Purchaser’s failure to provide any such notice shall be the enforcement of the remedy of specific performance against such Purchaser and there will be no monetary damages.

Section 5.2             Subsequent Public Offerings. Without the written consent of the holders of a majority of the Purchased Units, taken as a whole, from the date of this Agreement until the Lock-Up Date, BreitBurn shall not grant, issue or sell any Common Units, or other equity or voting securities of BreitBurn (“Partnership Securities”), any securities convertible into or exchangeable therefor or take any other action that may result in the issuance of any of the foregoing, other than (i) the issuance of the Purchased Units, (ii) the issuance of Awards (as defined in BreitBurn’s 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan), the issuance of Common Units upon the exercise of options to purchase Common Units granted pursuant to the BreitBurn 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan and the issuance of any equity or equity-based security pursuant to a management or employee benefit plan or in connection with the restructuring of such a plan, (iii) the issuance or sale of Common Units issued or sold in a private offering or a registered public offering to repay indebtedness incurred in connection with the Hermes Acquisition or to finance

17

future acquisitions that are accretive to distributable cash flow per Common Unit (or the repayment of indebtedness incurred in connection with such accretive acquisitions), (iv) the issuance or sale of Common Units issued, including without limitation to Provident Energy Trust and its affiliates and Hermes, as payment of any part of the purchase price for businesses that are acquired by the Partnership from Provident Energy Trust and its affiliates or any third party, and (v) the issuance or sale of Common Units to Hermes in connection with the Hermes Acquisition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BreitBurn shall not, and shall cause its directors, officers and Affiliates not to, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy any security (as defined in the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the sale of the Purchased Units in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Purchased Units to the Purchasers.

Section 5.3             Purchaser Lock-Up. Without the prior written consent of BreitBurn, each Purchaser agrees that from and after the Closing it will not sell any of its Purchased Units prior to the Lock-Up Date; provided, however, that each Purchaser may:  (i) enter into one or more total return swaps or similar transactions at any time with respect to the Purchased Units purchased by such Purchaser provided that such transactions are exempt from registration under the Securities Act; or (ii) transfer its Purchased Units to an Affiliate of such Purchaser or to any other Purchaser or an Affiliate of such other Purchaser provided that such Affiliate agrees to the restrictions in this Section 5.3.

Section 5.4             Taking of Necessary Action. Each of the Parties hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts promptly to take or cause to be taken all action and promptly to do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law and regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that nothing contained herein shall require BreitBurn to consummate the Hermes Acquisition. Without limiting the foregoing, BreitBurn and each Purchaser will use its commercially reasonable efforts to make all filings and obtain all consents of Governmental Authorities that may be necessary or, in the reasonable opinion of the Purchasers or BreitBurn, as the case may be, advisable for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Basic Documents.

Section 5.5             Non-Disclosure; Interim Public Filings. BreitBurn shall, as soon as practicable following execution of this Agreement, issue a press release disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated herein and in the other Basic Documents.

Thereafter, BreitBurn shall timely file any filings and notices required by the Commission or applicable Law with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BreitBurn shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any press release, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser except to the extent the names of the Purchasers are included in this Agreement as filed as an exhibit to the 8-K Filing and the press release referred to in the first sentence above.

available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. 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.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 8.1             Interpretation of Provisions. Article, Section, Schedule and Exhibit references are to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified. All references to instruments, documents, contracts and agreements are references to such instruments, documents, contracts and agreements as the same may be amended, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, unless otherwise specified.

(a)           Delay. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies that may be available to a Party at law or in equity or otherwise.

(b)           Specific Waiver. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, no amendment, waiver, consent, modification or termination of any provision of any Basic Document shall be effective unless signed by each of the Parties or each of the original signatories thereto affected by such amendment, waiver, consent, modification or termination. Any amendment, supplement or modification of or to any provision of any Basic Document, any waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Basic Document and any consent to any departure by BreitBurn or any Purchaser from the terms of any provision of any Basic Document shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given.

Except as expressly permitted by this Section 8.4(c), such rights and obligations may not otherwise be transferred except with the prior written consent of BreitBurn (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), in which case the assignee shall be deemed to be a Purchaser hereunder with respect to such assigned rights or obligations and shall agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 8.5             Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Purchaser has executed a confidentiality agreement in favor of BreitBurn and shall continue to be bound by such confidentiality agreement in accordance with the terms

(iii)          if a Law shall have been enacted or promulgated, or if any Action shall have been taken by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction that permanently restrains, precludes, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Hermes Contribution Agreement or makes the transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal; or

(iv)          in the event that the sum of the Commitment Amounts received by BreitBurn on the Closing Date is less than $350 Million Dollars ($350,000,000).

(c)           In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.11(a) or Section 8.11(b), any payments of a Purchaser’s Commitment Amount received by BreitBurn shall be returned to such Purchaser within two (2) Business Days and, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void.
