(uu) ERISA. Each “employee benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)) for which any of the Mid-Con Parties or any ERISA Affiliate (as defined below) would have any liability (each a “Plan”) 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 Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and, to the knowledge of the Mid-Con Parties, each “multiemployer plan” (as defined in Section 4001 of ERISA) to which the Mid-Con Parties or any ERISA Affiliate contributes (a “Multiemployer Plan”) is in material compliance with all applicable statutes, rules and regulations, including ERISA and the Code. “ERISA Affiliate” means, with respect to Mid-Con Parties, any trade or business (whether or not incorporated) under common control with Mid-Con Parties within the meaning of Section 414(b) or (c) of the Code and Sections 414(m) and (o) of the Code for purposes of provisions relating to Section 412 of the Code.

No “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by the Mid-Con Parties or any ERISA Affiliate provides health or welfare benefits for any retired or former employee of the Mid-Con Parties or any ERISA Affiliate, except to the extent required under Section 4980B of the Code or similar state laws.

written notice of such cancellation to the Partnership. To the extent, if any, that the option is exercised, payment for the Option Units shall be made on the Option Closing Date by wire transfer payable in same-day funds to an account specified by the Partnership against delivery of the Option Units to the Representatives for the several accounts of the Underwriters through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company in New York, New York.

3. Offering by the Underwriters.

It is understood that the several Underwriters propose to offer the Units for sale to the public as set forth in the Prospectus.

It is further understood that you will act as the Representatives for the Underwriters in the offering and sale of the Units in accordance with a Master Agreement Among Underwriters entered into by you and the several other Underwriters.

4. Covenants.

(a) Preparation of Prospectus. The Partnership covenants and agrees with the several Underwriters that it will (i) prepare and timely file with the Commission under Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations a Prospectus in a form approved by the Representatives containing information previously omitted at the time of effectiveness of the Registration Statement in reliance on Rule 430A of the Rules and Regulations; (ii) not file any amendment to the Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus of which RBC Capital Markets, LLC shall not previously have been advised and furnished with a copy or to which the Representatives shall have reasonably objected in writing or which is not in compliance with the Rules and Regulations; and (iii) file on a timely basis all reports and any definitive proxy or information statements required to be filed by the Partnership with the Commission subsequent to the date of the Prospectus and prior to the termination of the offering of the Units by the Underwriters.

(b) Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. The Partnership agrees that, without the prior consent of RBC Capital Markets, LLC, it will not make any offer relating to the Units that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. Each Underwriter represents and agrees that it has not made and, without the prior consent of the Partnership and RBC Capital Markets, LLC, it will not make, any offer relating to the Units that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. Any such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus the use of which has been consented to by the Partnership and RBC Capital Markets, LLC is listed on Schedule II(b) hereto. The Partnership has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 under the Securities Act applicable to any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission or retention where required and legending. The Partnership represents that it has satisfied and agrees that it will satisfy the conditions under Rule 433 under the Securities Act to avoid a requirement to file with the Commission any electronic road show. The Partnership agrees that if at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus any event occurred or occurs as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus would conflict with the information in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus or, when taken together with the Disclosure Package, would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the

circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Partnership will give prompt notice thereof to RBC Capital Markets, LLC and, if requested by RBC Capital Markets, LLC, will prepare and furnish without charge to each Underwriter an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other document which will correct such conflict, statement or omission.

(c) Stabilization. The Mid-Con Parties will not take, directly or indirectly, any action that would constitute, or that is designed to or might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any securities of the Partnership to facilitate the sale or resale of the Units.

(d) Effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Partnership Parties will advise the Representatives promptly (i) when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto shall have become effective; (ii) of receipt of any comments from the Commission on the Registration Statement; (iii) of any request of the Commission for amendment of the Registration Statement or for supplement to the Prospectus or for any additional information; and (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any notice objecting to the use of the Prospectus or of the institution of any proceedings for that purpose. Each of the Partnership Parties will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus and to obtain as soon as possible the lifting thereof, if issued.

(e) Qualification of Units. The Partnership Parties will cooperate with the Representatives in endeavoring to qualify the Units for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may reasonably have designated in writing and will make such applications, file such documents, and furnish such information as may be reasonably required for that purpose, provided the Partnership Parties shall not be required to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or required to file such a consent. The Partnership will, from time to time, prepare and file such statements, reports, and other documents, as are or may be required to continue such qualifications in effect for so long a period as the Representatives may reasonably request for distribution of the Units.

(f) Signed Copies of the Registration Statement and Copies of the Prospectus. The Partnership will deliver to, or upon the order of, the Representatives during the period when delivery of a Prospectus is required under the Securities Act, as many copies of any Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus in final form, or as thereafter amended or supplemented, as the Representatives may reasonably request. The Partnership will deliver to the Representatives at or before the Closing Date, signed copies of the Registration Statement and all amendments thereto including all exhibits filed therewith, and will deliver to the Representatives such number of copies of the Registration Statement and of all amendments thereto (excluding exhibits), as the Representatives may reasonably request.

(g) Amendment of Registration Statement or Supplement of Prospectus. The Partnership will comply with the Securities Act and the Rules and Regulations, and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, so as to permit the completion of the distribution of the Units as contemplated in this Agreement and the Prospectus.

If during the period in which a prospectus is required by law to be delivered by an Underwriter or dealer, any event shall occur as a result of which, in the judgment of the Partnership or in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriters, it becomes necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or, if it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with any law, the Partnership promptly will prepare and file with the Commission an appropriate amendment to the Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus so that the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances when it is so delivered, be misleading, or so that the Prospectus will comply with the applicable law.

(h) Earnings Statement. The Partnership will make generally available to its unitholders, as soon as it is practicable to do so, but in any event not later than 15 months after the Effective Date, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) in reasonable detail, covering a period of at least 12 consecutive months beginning after the Effective Date, which earnings statement shall satisfy the requirements of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 of the Rules and Regulations.

(i) Lockup Period. Each of the Partnership and the General Partner covenants and agrees that it will not, directly or indirectly, make any offering, sale, short sale, contract to sell, pledge or other disposition of any Common Units or other securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder with respect to Common Units, for a period of 180 days (the “Lockup Period”) after the date of this Agreement, other than as provided herein or with the prior written consent of RBC Capital Markets, LLC; provided, that this provision will not restrict the Partnership from (i) issuing and selling Common Units pursuant to the Partnership’s long-term incentive program described in the Prospectus and the Disclosure Package, or (ii) issuing Common Units and other securities pursuant to the transactions (including the Transactions) contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents as described in the Prospectus and the Disclosure Package. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (x) during the last 17 days of the Lockup Period the Partnership issues an earnings release or announces material news or a material event relating to the Partnership occurs, or (y) prior to the expiration of the Lockup Period, the Partnership announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the Lockup Period, the restrictions imposed in this clause shall continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the announcement of the material news or the occurrence of the material event.

(j) Lockup Agreements. The Partnership Parties have caused each officer and director of the Partnership and General Partner and each other individual or entity set forth on Schedule IV to furnish to you, on or prior to the date of this agreement, a letter or letters, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (“Lockup Agreements”).

(k) Listing. The Partnership will use its best efforts to list, subject to notice of issuance, the Units on the NASDAQ.

(l) Use of Proceeds. The Partnership Parties shall apply the net proceeds from the sale of the Units as described under the heading “Use of Proceeds” in the Prospectus and the Disclosure Package.

(m) No Other Prospectus. The Partnership agrees, not, at any time at or after the execution of this Agreement, to, directly or indirectly, offer or sell any Common Units by means of any “prospectus” (within the meaning of the Securities Act), or use any “prospectus” (within the meaning of the Securities Act) in connection with the offer or sale of the Units, in each case other than the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(n) Undertakings. The Partnership will comply with all provisions of any undertakings contained in the Registration Statement.

5. Costs and Expenses.

The Mid-Con Parties will pay all costs, expenses and fees incident to the performance of the obligations of the Mid-Con Parties under this Agreement, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following: the preparation of the certificates for the Units and the issuance and delivery of the Units to the Underwriters, including any stock or other transfer taxes and any stamp or other taxes or duties payable in connection with the sale, issuance or delivery of the Units to the Underwriters; accounting fees of the Partnership; the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Mid-Con Parties; the cost of printing and delivering to, or as requested by, the Underwriters copies of the Registration Statement, Preliminary Prospectuses, the Pricing Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and the Prospectus and any supplements or amendments thereto; the filing fees of the Commission; the filing fees and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incident to securing any required review by FINRA of the terms of the sale of the Units; the Listing Fee of the NASDAQ; and the expenses, incurred in connection with the qualification of the Units under state securities or Blue Sky laws and the preparation, printing and distribution of any Blue Sky survey, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters in connection therewith up to a maximum amount of $15,000. The Partnership agrees to pay to RBC Capital Markets, LLC an aggregate structuring fee in an amount equal to 0.375% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Units for the evaluation, analysis and structuring of the Partnership.

The Mid-Con Parties shall not, however, be required to pay for any of the Underwriters expenses (other than those related to qualification under FINRA regulations and state securities or Blue Sky laws as set forth in the preceding paragraph) except that, if this Agreement shall not be consummated because the conditions in Section 6 hereof are not satisfied, or because this Agreement is terminated by the Representatives pursuant to Section 11(a)(i) and (v) hereof, or by reason of any failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Mid-Con Parties to perform any undertaking or satisfy any condition of this Agreement or to comply with any of the terms hereof on its part to be performed, unless such failure to satisfy said condition or to comply with said terms be due to the default or omission of any Underwriter, then the Mid-Con Parties shall reimburse the several Underwriters for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including all fees and disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, marketing and proposing to market the Units or in contemplation of performing their obligations hereunder; but the Mid-Con Parties shall not in any event be liable to any of the several Underwriters for damages on account of loss of anticipated profits from the sale by them of the Units.

6. Conditions of Obligations of the Underwriters.

The several obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Firm Units on the Closing Date and the Option Units, if any, on the Option Closing Date are subject to the accuracy, as of the Closing Date and the Option Closing Date, if any, of the representations and warranties of the Mid-Con Parties contained herein, and to the performance by the Mid-Con Parties of their covenants and obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions:

No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or any notice objecting to the use of the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, shall have been issued and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Mid-Con Parties, shall be threatened by the Commission; all requests for additional information on the part of the Commission shall have been complied with to your reasonable satisfaction; and no injunction, restraining order, or order of any nature by a federal or state court of competent jurisdiction shall have been issued as of the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, if any, which would prevent the issuance of the Units.

8. Indemnification.

(a) The Mid-Con Parties agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees and agents of each Underwriter, its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 501(b) under the Securities Act), its selling agent and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, or Section 20 of the Exchange Act of each Underwriter who has, or who is alleged to have, participated in the distribution of the Units, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as incurred, to which such Underwriter or any such entity or person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in

respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in (A) the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (B) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act and (C) in any materials or information that does not constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and that is provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Partnership in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Units, including any “road show” or “bona fide electronic road show” (each as defined in Rule 433), not constituting an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (“Marketing Materials”) or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (except with respect to the Registration Statement, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made); provided, however, that the Mid-Con Parties will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or such amendment or supplement, in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act or in any Marketing Materials in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Partnership by or through the Representatives specifically for use in the preparation thereof, such information being listed in Section 13 below.

(b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly will indemnify and hold harmless each of the Mid-Con Parties, each of their directors and officers who have signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls any Mid-Con Party within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and any “affiliate” (within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act) of such Mid-Con Party who has, or who is alleged to have, participated in the distribution of the Units, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as incurred, to which any of the Mid-Con Parties or any such respective director, officer, or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in (A) the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (B) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act and (C) Marketing Materials (ii) the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made; and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Mid-Con Parties or any such respective director, officer, or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that each Underwriter will be liable in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission has been made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Mid-Con Parties by or through the Representatives specifically for use in the preparation thereof, such information being listed in Section 13 below.

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section, such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing. No indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or (b) shall be available to any party who shall fail to give notice as provided in this Subsection if the party to whom notice was not given was materially prejudiced by the failure to give such notice, but the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party or parties from any liability which it or they may have to the indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than on account of the provisions of Section 8(a) or (b). In case any such proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party and shall pay as incurred the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall pay as incurred (or within 30 days of presentation) the fees and expenses of the counsel retained by the indemnified party in the event (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them or (iii) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel acceptable to the indemnified party within a reasonable period of time after notice of commencement of the action.

It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm for all such indemnified parties. Such firm shall be designated in writing by you in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a) and by the Mid-Con Parties in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent but if settled with such consent, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. In addition, the indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action or proceeding.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Mid-Con Parties on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the

Units. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Mid-Con Parties on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Mid-Con Parties on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Mid-Con Parties bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Mid-Con Parties on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Mid-Con Parties and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Subsection were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Subsection. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to above in this Subsection shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Subsection, (i) no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to the Units purchased by such Underwriter and (ii) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this Subsection to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

(e) The indemnifying party will reimburse the indemnified party upon demand for any legal or other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage or liability, action or proceeding or in responding to a subpoena or governmental inquiry related to the offering of the Units, in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or (b) above whether or not such indemnified party is a party to any action or proceeding. In the event that it is finally judicially determined that the indemnified party was not entitled to receive payments for legal and other expenses pursuant to this subparagraph, the indemnified party will promptly return all sums that had been advanced pursuant hereto.

9. Default by Underwriters.

If on the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, if any, any Underwriter shall fail to purchase and pay for the portion of the Units which such Underwriter has agreed to purchase and pay for on such date (otherwise than by reason of any default on the part of the Mid-Con Parties),

you, as the Representatives of the Underwriters, shall use your reasonable efforts to procure within 36 hours thereafter one or more of the other Underwriters, or any others, to purchase from the Partnership such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms set forth herein, the Firm Units or Option Units, as the case may be, which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters failed to purchase. If during such 36 hours you, as such Representatives, shall not have procured such other Underwriters, or any others, to purchase the Firm Units or Option Units, as the case may be, agreed to be purchased by the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, and if the aggregate number of shares with respect to which such default shall occur does not exceed 10% of the Firm Units or Option Units, as the case may be, covered hereby, the other Underwriters shall be obligated, severally, in proportion to the respective numbers of Firm Units or Option Units, as the case may be, which they are obligated to purchase hereunder, to purchase the Firm Units or Option Units, as the case may be, which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters failed to purchase. If the aggregate number of shares of Firm Units or Option Units, as the case may be, with respect to which such default shall occur exceeds 10% of the Firm Units or Option Units, as the case may be, covered hereby, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Units and, if such remaining Underwriters do not purchase all of the Units, you as the Representatives of the Underwriters will have the right to terminate this Agreement without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters or of the Mid-Con Parties except to the extent provided in Section 8 hereof. In the event of a default by any Underwriter or Underwriters, as set forth in this Section, the Closing Date or Option Closing Date, if any, may be postponed for such period, not exceeding seven days, as you, as Representatives, may determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement or in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. The term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for a defaulting Underwriter. Any action taken under this Section shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

The Mid-Con Parties hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Mid-Con Parties may have against the Underwriters with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by their independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Mid-Con Parties by such Underwriters’ investment banking divisions. The Mid-Con Parties acknowledge that each of the Underwriters is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short position in debt or equity securities of the companies which may be the subject to the transactions (including the Transactions) contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents.

(c) the relationship between the Mid-Con Parties and the Underwriters in connection with this Offering, sale of the Units or any other services the Underwriters may be deemed to be providing hereunder is entirely and solely commercial, based on arms-length negotiations;

(d) any duties and obligations that the Underwriters may have to the Mid-Con Parties in connection with this Offering, sale of the Units or any other services the Underwriters may be deemed to be providing hereunder shall be limited to those duties and obligations specifically stated herein; and

(e) notwithstanding anything in this Underwriting Agreement to the contrary, each of the Mid-Con Parties acknowledges that the Underwriters may have financial interests in the success of the Offering that are not limited to the difference between the price to the public and the purchase price paid to the Partnership by the Underwriters for the common units and the Underwriters have no obligation to disclose, or account to the Partnership for, any of such additional financial interests.

Each of the Mid-Con Parties hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against the Underwriters with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty.

16. Miscellaneous.

The reimbursement, indemnification and contribution agreements contained in this Agreement and the representations, warranties and covenants in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of (a) any termination of this Agreement, (b) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or controlling person thereof, or by or on behalf of the Mid-Con Parties or any of their directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof and (c) delivery of and payment for the Units under this Agreement.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
