(vv) Each of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties has all permits, licenses, franchises, approvals, consents and authorizations of governmental or regulatory authorities (hereinafter “permit” or “permits”) as are necessary to own or lease its properties and to conduct its business in the manner described in the Registration Statement, Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, subject to such qualifications as may be set forth in the Registration Statement, Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, except where the failure to have obtained any such permit has not had and will not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(yy) Except as described in the Registration Statement, Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties are in compliance with any and all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to the protection of human health and safety, the environment or hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants (“Environmental Laws”), have received all permits, licenses or other approvals required of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their respective businesses and are in compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval, except where such noncompliance with Environmental Laws, failure to receive required permits, licenses or other approvals or failure to comply with the terms and conditions of such permits, licenses or other approvals would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties has been named as a “potentially responsible party” under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, in regard to any unresolved matter or claim. None of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties owns, leases or occupies any property requiring remediation that appears on any list of hazardous sites compiled by any state or local governmental agency.

The Plan is in compliance with ERISA and all other applicable state and federal laws. No “reportable event” (as defined in ERISA) has occurred with respect to the Plan. The Plan, if it were to be terminated as of the

Closing Date, would not have any “amount of unfunded benefit liabilities” (as defined in ERISA). None of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties nor any of their ERISA Affiliates has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any liability under (i) Title IV of ERISA with respect to termination of, or withdrawal from, the Plan or (ii) Sections 412, 4971, 4975 or 4980B of the Code. Each “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by any ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Party or any of their ERISA Affiliates that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and nothing has occurred, whether by action or failure to act, that would cause the loss of such qualification.

If settlement for the Option Units occurs after the Closing Date, the Partnership will deliver to the Underwriters on the settlement date for the Option Units (each, an “Option Closing Date”), and the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase the Option Units shall be conditioned upon receipt of, supplemental opinions, certificates and letters confirming as of such date the opinions, certificates and letters delivered on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 6 hereof.

4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the Underwriters propose to offer the Units for sale to the public as set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus.

5. Agreements. Each of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, jointly and severally, agrees with the Underwriters as follows:

(a) Prior to the termination of the offering of the Units, the Partnership will not file any amendment of the Registration Statement or supplement (including the Final Prospectus or any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) to the Basic Prospectus or any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement unless the Partnership has furnished you a copy for your review prior to filing and will not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which you reasonably object. The Partnership will cause the Final Prospectus, properly completed, and any supplement thereto to be filed in a form approved by the Representatives with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) within the time period prescribed and will provide evidence satisfactory to the Representatives of such timely filing. The Partnership will promptly advise the Representatives when the Final Prospectus, and any supplement thereto, shall have been filed (if required) with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) or when any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement shall have been filed with the Commission, when, prior to termination of the offering of the Units, any amendment to the Registration Statement shall have been filed or become effective, of any request by the Commission or its staff for any amendment of the Registration Statement, or any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement, or for any supplement to the Final Prospectus or for any additional information, of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any notice that would prevent its use or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and of the receipt by the Partnership of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Units for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Partnership will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or the occurrence of any such suspension or prevention and, upon such issuance, occurrence or prevention, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal of such stop order or relief from such occurrence or prevention, including, if necessary, by filing an amendment to the Registration Statement or a new registration statement and using its best efforts to have such amendment or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable.

(b) To prepare a final term sheet, to the extent you require us to prepare a term sheet, containing solely a description of the Units, in a form approved by you and to file such term sheet pursuant to Rule 433(d) within the time required by such Rule.

(c) If there occurs an event or development as a result of which the Disclosure Package would include an untrue statement of a material fact or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Partnership will notify promptly the Representatives so that any use of the Disclosure Package may cease until it is amended or supplemented.

(d) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Units is required to be delivered under the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), any event occurs as a result of which the Final Prospectus as then supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement, file a new registration statement or supplement the Final Prospectus to comply with the Act or the Exchange Act or the

respective rules thereunder, including in connection with use or delivery of the Final Prospectus, the Partnership promptly will notify the Representatives of such event, prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the second sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 5, an amendment or supplement or new registration statement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance, use its best efforts to have any amendment to the Registration Statement or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable in order to avoid any disruption in use of the Final Prospectus and supply any supplemented Final Prospectus to you in such quantities as you may reasonably request.

(xix) No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration, qualification or filing with, any Delaware, Texas or federal court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental body, agency or official is required on the part of any of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties for the valid offering, issuance and sale of the Units to the Underwriters under this Agreement, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties or the consummation by the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except for such consents required under the Act and the Exchange Act or under state securities or “Blue Sky” laws, as to which such counsel need to express any opinion, for such consents which have been obtained or made, for such consents which are of a routine or administrative nature and are not customarily obtained or made prior to the consummation of transactions such as those contemplated by this Agreement or for such consents which, if not obtained or made, would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

With respect to statements contained in the Disclosure Package, any statement contained in any of the constituent documents shall be deemed to be modified or superseded to the extent that any information contained in subsequent constituent documents modifies or replaces such statement.

(g) All corporate, partnership and limited liability company proceedings and other legal matters incident to the authorization, form and validity of this Agreement, the Operative Agreements, the Units, the Registration Statement, Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, and all other legal matters relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be reasonably satisfactory in all material respects to counsel for the Underwriters, and the Partnership shall have furnished to such counsel all documents and information that they may reasonably request to enable them to pass upon such matters.

(b) The Underwriters will indemnify and hold harmless the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, from and against any losses, damages or liabilities to which the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, damages or liabilities (or actions or claims in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Final Prospectus and the Disclosure Package or in any amendment or supplement thereto, 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, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Final Prospectus and the Disclosure Package or any such amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Partnership by or on behalf of the Underwriters, expressly for use in the preparation thereof, and will reimburse the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties for any legal or other expenses incurred by the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred (including such losses, damages, liabilities or expenses to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any such action or claim, provided that (subject to Section 8(c) hereof) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Representatives).

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof, notify each such indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the failure so to notify such indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability except to the extent that it has been prejudiced in any material respect (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or other defenses) by such failure or from any liability that it may have to any such indemnified party otherwise than under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof. In case any such action

shall be brought against any such indemnified party and it shall notify each indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, each such indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of such indemnified party, be counsel to such indemnifying party), and, after notice from such indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment of counsel by such indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party has been authorized by the indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnified party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be a conflict of interest between the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in the conduct of the defense, or certain aspects of the defense, of such action (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action with respect to those matters or aspects of the defense on which a conflict exists or may exist on behalf of the indemnified party) or (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party to assume the defense of such action, in any of which events such fees and expenses to the extent applicable shall be borne, and shall be paid as incurred, by the indemnifying party. If at any time such indemnified party shall have requested such indemnifying party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof to reimburse such indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of such request for reimbursement, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 45 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request for reimbursement prior to the date of such settlement. No such indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of such indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not such indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (A) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (B) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any such indemnified party. In no event shall such indemnifying parties be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel, other than one local counsel, for all such indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to indemnify or hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof in respect of any losses, damages or liabilities (or actions or claims in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof shall contribute to the

amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, damages or liabilities (or actions or claims in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, from the offering of the Units. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under Section 8(c) hereof and such indemnifying party was prejudiced in a material respect by such failure, then each such 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, as applicable, of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, damages or liabilities (or actions or claims in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by, as applicable, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties on the one hand and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from such offering (before deducting expenses) received by the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault, as applicable, of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, on the one hand and the Underwriters, on the other hand, 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 ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties on the one hand, or the Underwriters, on the other hand and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 8(d). The amount paid or payable by such an indemnified party as a result of the losses, damages or liabilities (or actions or claims in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Units underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that the Underwriters have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls the Underwriters within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of the Underwriters shall have the same rights to contribution as the Underwriters, and each person who controls the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties shall have the same rights to contribution as the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

(e) The rights and obligations of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability that the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer, director, employee, agent or other representative and to each person, if any, who controls the Underwriters within the meaning of the Act; and the

obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability that the respective Underwriter may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Partnership and General Partner who signed the Registration Statement and to each person, if any, who controls the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties within the meaning of the Act.

9. Increase in Underwriters’ Commitments.

Subject to Sections 6 and 10 hereof, if any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to take up and pay for the Underwritten Units to be purchased by it hereunder (otherwise than for a failure of a condition set forth in Section 6 hereof or a reason sufficient to justify the termination of this Agreement under the provisions of Section 10 hereof) and if the number of Underwritten Units which all Underwriters so defaulting shall have agreed but failed to take up and pay for does not exceed 10% of the total number of Underwritten Units, the non-defaulting Underwriters (including the Underwriters, if any, substituted in the manner set forth below) shall take up and pay for (in addition to the aggregate number of Underwritten Units they are obligated to purchase pursuant to Section 2 hereof) the number of Underwritten Units agreed to be purchased by all such defaulting Underwriters, as hereinafter provided. Such Units shall be taken up and paid for by such non-defaulting Underwriters in such amount or amounts as the Representatives may designate with the consent of each Underwriter so designated or, in the event no such designation is made, such Units shall be taken up and paid for by all non-defaulting Underwriters pro rata in proportion to the aggregate number of Underwritten Units set forth opposite the names of such non-defaulting Underwriters in Schedule II.

Without relieving any defaulting Underwriter from its obligations hereunder, the Partnership agrees with the non-defaulting Underwriters that they will not sell any Underwritten Units hereunder unless all of the Underwritten Units are purchased by the Underwriters (or by substituted Underwriters selected by the Representatives with the approval of the Partnership or selected by the Partnership with the Representatives’ approval).

If a new Underwriter or Underwriters are substituted by the Underwriters or by the Partnership for a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters in accordance with the foregoing provision, the Partnership or the Representatives shall have the right to postpone the time of purchase for a period not exceeding five Business Days in order that any necessary changes in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus and other documents may be effected.

The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall refer to and include any Underwriter substituted under this Section 9 with like effect as if such substituted Underwriter had originally been named in Schedule II hereto.

If the aggregate number of Underwritten Units which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed to purchase exceeds 10% of the total number of Underwritten Units which all Underwriters agreed to purchase hereunder, and if neither the non-defaulting Underwriters nor the Partnership shall make arrangements within the five Business Day period stated above for the purchase of all the Underwritten Units which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed to purchase hereunder, this Agreement shall terminate without further act or deed and without any liability on the part of the Partnership to any Underwriter and without any liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter to the Partnership. Nothing in this paragraph, and no action taken hereunder, shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

10. Termination.

(a) This Agreement may be terminated by the Representatives at any time at or prior to the Closing Date by notice to the Partnership if any condition specified in Section 6 hereof shall not have been satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Sections 8 and 10 hereof.

(b) This Agreement also may be terminated by the Representatives, by notice to the Partnership, as to any obligation of the Underwriters to purchase the Option Units, if any condition specified in Section 6 hereof shall not have been satisfied at or prior to the Option Closing Date or as provided in Section 9 of this Agreement.

(c) If the Representatives terminate this Agreement as provided in Sections 10(a) or 10(b), they shall notify the Partnership by telephone or telegram, confirmed by letter.

(d) Section 7, Section 8 and Section 11 of this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

11. Costs and Expenses. The Partnership will bear and pay the costs and expenses incident to the registration of the Units and public offering thereof, including, without limitation, (a) all expenses (including transfer taxes) incurred in connection with the delivery to the Underwriters of the Units, the filing fees of the SEC, the fees and expenses of the Partnership’s counsel and accountants, (b) the preparation, printing, filing, delivery and shipping of the Registration Statement, each Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the Final Prospectus, each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto and the printing, delivery and shipping of this Agreement and other underwriting documents, including the Selected Dealer Agreement, Underwriter’s Questionnaires and Powers of Attorney and Blue Sky Memoranda, and any instruments or documents related to any of the foregoing, (c) the furnishing of copies of such documents to the Underwriters, (d) the registration or qualification of the Units for offering and sale under the securities laws of the various states and other jurisdictions, including the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriters relating to such registration or qualification and in connection with preparing any Blue Sky Memoranda or related analysis, (e) the filing fees of the FINRA (if any) and fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriters relating to any review of the offering by the FINRA, (f) all printing and engraving costs related to preparation of the certificates for the Units, including transfer agent and registrar fees, (g) all travel expenses, including air fare and accommodation expenses, of representatives of the Partnership in connection with the offering of the Units, and (h) all of the other costs and expenses incident to the performance by the Partnership of the registration and offering of the Units; provided, that (except as otherwise provided in Section 7) the Underwriters will bear and pay all of its own costs and expenses, including the fees and expenses of the Underwriters’ counsel, the Underwriters’ transportation expenses and any advertising costs and expenses incurred by the Underwriters incident to the public offering of the ▇▇▇▇▇.

18. No Fiduciary Duty. Notwithstanding any preexisting relationship, advisory or otherwise, between the parties or any oral representations or assurances previously or subsequently made by the Underwriters, the Partnership acknowledges and agrees that: (i) nothing herein shall create a fiduciary or agency relationship between the Partnership, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other; (ii) each Underwriter is not acting as an advisor, expert or otherwise, to the Partnership in connection with this offering, the sale of the Units or any other services the Underwriters may be deemed to be providing hereunder, including, without limitation, with respect to the public offering price of the Units; (iii) the relationship between the Partnership, on the one hand, and each Underwriter, on the other, is entirely and solely commercial, based on arms-length negotiations; (iv) any duties and obligations that the Underwriters may have to the Partnership shall be limited to those duties and obligations specifically stated herein; and (v) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Partnership acknowledges that the Underwriters may have financial interest 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 Units and the Underwriters have no obligation to disclose, or account to the Partnership for, any of such additional financial interests.

The Partnership hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Partnership may have against each Underwriter with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
