If the Partnership does not send such an acceptance, and unless the Partnership on behalf of itself and the other Partnership Parties and acting through the Conflicts Committee delivers to the Contributing Parties written notice setting forth in reasonable detail any specific items in the Contributing Parties’ calculation of the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount disputed by the Partnership (each, a “Disputed Item”) and a written statement setting forth the Partnership’s calculation of each such Disputed Item on or prior to the thirtieth (30^th) day after the Partnership’s receipt of the Final Working Capital Worksheet, the Final Net Working Capital and the Final Pre-Closing Capital Expenditures Worksheet (such period, the “Objection Period”), the Partnership will be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the Contributing Parties’ calculation of the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount and such agreement will be final, binding and conclusive. Any items in the Contributing Parties’ calculation of the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount to which the Partnership has not given notice of objection within the Objection Period will be deemed to have been agreed upon by the Parties. If the Partnership so notifies the Contributing Parties of its objections to the Contributing Parties’ calculation of the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount within the Objection Period, the Partnership on behalf of itself and the other Partnership Parties and acting through the Conflicts Committee and the Contributing Parties shall, within thirty (30) days following such notice (the “Resolution Period”), attempt to resolve the Disputed Items. Any resolution by the Partnership and the Contributing Parties during the Resolution Period as to any Disputed Items will be final, binding and conclusive.

(c)

If the Partnership and the Contributing Parties do not resolve all Disputed Items by the end of the Resolution Period, then the Partnership, on behalf of itself and the other Partnership Parties and acting through the Conflicts Committee, and the Contributing Parties shall submit all unresolved Disputed Items to the firm of KPMG LLC, or such other public accounting firm to which the parties hereto may agree (the “Accounting Firm”) as soon as practicable following the expiration of the Resolution Period. In such event, each of the Partnership, on behalf of itself and the other Partnership Parties and acting through the Conflicts Committee, and

the Contributing Parties shall submit to the Accounting Firm its calculation of the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount together with detailed supporting documentation as it deems appropriate. The Accounting Firm shall consider only those items and amounts in the Partnership’s and the Contributing Parties’ respective calculations of the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount that are identified as Disputed Items. The scope of the Disputed Items to be resolved by the Accounting Firm shall be limited to correcting mathematical errors and determining whether the items and amounts in dispute were determined in compliance with this Section 2.4 and the Accounting Firm is not to make any other determination. In resolving any Disputed Item, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Party. The Partnership and the Contributing Parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days after the date on which the Accounting Firm receives the calculations of the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount submitted by the Partnership and the Contributing Parties. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties and shall not be subject to appeal or further review absent manifest error. The costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm will be shared equally by the Parties. The Parties agree that the procedures set forth in this Section 2.4 shall be the sole and exclusive method for resolving disputes regarding the determination of the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount.

(d)

Within five (5) Business Days after the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4:

(i)

if the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4 is a positive amount, the Partnership shall promptly deliver to the Contributing Parties, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Contributing Parties, an amount equal to the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount;

(ii)

if the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4 is a negative number, then the Contributing Parties shall promptly deliver to the Partnership Parties, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Partnership Parties an amount equal to the lesser of absolute value of the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount or the Cash Consideration. If the absolute value of the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount is greater than the Cash Consideration, then the Partnership Agreement Amendment will address the satisfaction of such difference; and

(iii)

if the Final Consideration Adjustment Amount as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4 is equal to zero, neither the Partnership nor the Contributing Parties shall have any further obligation under this Section 2.4.

3.5 Financial Information; Undisclosed Liabilities.

(a)

Disclosure Schedule 3.5(a) sets forth a true and complete copy of the unaudited balance sheets as of December 31, 2010 and 2011 and as of June 30, 2012, and statements of income for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011 and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 for the Contributed Entities on a consolidated basis, after reflecting the adjustments set forth on Disclosure Schedule 3.5(a) (collectively referred to as the “Financial Statements”). The Financial Statements present fairly in all material respects the financial position of the Contributed Entities as of the dates thereof and the results of operations of the Contributed Entities for the periods presented. Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule 3.5(a), there are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a Contributed Entity Material Adverse Effect. The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods presented, except that the Financial Statements reflect the transactions set forth on Disclosure Schedule 3.5(a) and do not include any notes. Except as required by GAAP, there were no changes in the method of application of the Contributed Entities’ accounting policies or changes in the method of applying the Contributed Entities’ use of estimates in the preparation of the Financial Statements as compared with past practice.

(b)

There are no liabilities or obligations of the Contributed Entities of any nature (whether known or unknown and whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) and there are no facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to result in any such liabilities or obligations, whether arising in the context of federal, state or local judicial, regulatory, administrative or permitting agency proceedings, other than (i) liabilities or obligations accrued in the Financial Statements, (ii) current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business since January 1, 2012, (iii) liabilities or obligations set forth on Disclosure Schedule 3.5(b), and (iv) liabilities or obligations (whether known or unknown and whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Contributed Entity Material Adverse Effect.

3.6 Internal Controls.

The system of internal controls over financial reporting to which the Contributed Entities are subject is sufficient to provide reasonable assurance (a) that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP consistently applied, (b) that transactions are executed only in accordance with the authorization of management, and (c) regarding the prevention or timely detection of the unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the assets of such Contributed Entities.

With respect to the Leased Real Property, except to the extent described to the contrary on Disclosure Schedule 3.7(a), all leases and subleases are in full force and effect and the Contributed Entities have not received any written

notice of a breach or default thereunder, whether actual or alleged and, to the Knowledge of the Contributing Parties, no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a breach or default under any such lease or sublease, except for any such breaches or defaults that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Contributed Entity Material Adverse Effect.

(b)

Each of the Contributed Entities has such consents, easements, rights-of-way, permits and licenses from each Person, including Governmental Authorities (collectively, the “Rights-of-Way” and together with the Owned Real Property and Leased Real Property, the “Real Property”) as are sufficient to conduct the Contributed Entities’ olefins business substantially in accordance with past practice, except for such Rights-of-Way the absence of which have not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Contributed Entity Material Adverse Effect. With respect to the Rights-of-Way, except to the extent described to the contrary on Disclosure Schedule 3.7(b), (i) each of the Contributed Entities has fulfilled and performed all its material obligations thereunder and no default or other event has occurred that allows, or after notice or lapse of time would allow, revocation or termination thereof or would result in any impairment of the rights of the holder of any of the Rights-of-Way, except for such revocations, terminations and impairments that have not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Contributed Entity Material Adverse Effect; and (ii) none of the Rights-of-Way contains any restriction that is materially burdensome to the Contributed Entities, taken as a whole.

With respect to any Plan that the Contributing Parties (or any entity treated as a single employer with a Contributing Party for purposes of Section 414 of the Code or Section 4001(a)(14) of ERISA (the “Contributing Parties Aggregated Group”)) has maintained within the last six years or has had any obligation to contribute to within the past six years, (i) except for an event described in Section 4043(c)(3) of ERISA and except for an event that would not impose any liability on the Partnership Parties or the Contributed Entities, there has been no “reportable event,” as that term is defined in Section 4043 of ERISA, for which the thirty (30) day reporting requirement has not been waived, and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not result in such a “reportable event” for which a waiver does not apply, (ii) none of the Contributed Entities, the Contributing Parties or any member of the Contributing Parties

Aggregated Group has incurred any direct or indirect liability under Title IV of ERISA other than liability for premiums to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation that have been timely paid and other than any liabilities for which the Contributed Entities have no direct or indirect responsibility or obligation, and (iii) there does not exist any accumulated funding deficiency within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA, whether or not waived that, in either case, would give rise to a Lien on any of the Contributed Entities’ assets or that would reasonably be expected to result in a WOL Material Adverse Effect. None of the Contributed Entities, the Contributing Parties or any member of the Contributing Parties Aggregated Group contributes to, or has an obligation to contribute to, and has not within six years prior to the Closing Date contributed to, or had an obligation to contribute to, a “multiemployer plan” within the meaning of Section 3(37) of ERISA (x) that is, or is reasonably expected to be in “critical” or “endangered” status as defined in Section 432 of the Code or Section 305 of ERISA, or (y) in respect of which a Contributed Entity, a Contributing Party or any member of the Contributing Parties Aggregated Group has or may reasonably be expected to incur any withdrawal liability (as defined in Section 4201 of ERISA).

(e)

The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under all of the Plans of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or its Affiliates subject to Title IV of ERISA (other than multiemployer plans) (the “Title IV Plans”), determined as of the end of such Title IV Plan’s most recently ended plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in such Title IV Plan’s actuarial valuation report for such plan year, did not exceed by more than $300 million the aggregate current value of the assets of all such Title IV Plans allocable to such benefit liabilities. No Title IV Plan is, or is reasonably expected to be within one year immediately following the Closing, in “at-risk” status (as defined in Section 303(i)(4) of ERISA or Section 430(i)(4) of the Code). The term “benefit liabilities” has the meaning specified in section 4001 of ERISA and the terms “current value” and “present value” have the meaning specified in section 3 of ERISA.

(f)

Except as would not result in any liability to the Contributed Entities, the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not (either alone or upon the occurrence of any subsequent employment-related event) result in any payment becoming due, result in the acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such benefits, result in the incurrence or acceleration of any other obligation related to the Plans or to any employee or former employee of any Contributing Party or any of its Affiliates.

(g)

All costs and liabilities associated with Associated Employees and any former employees who have provided services with respect to the Contributed Entities have been allocated in good faith among the Contributing Parties and their Affiliates and the Contributed Entities.

3.16 Labor Matters.

There is no labor strike, or other material dispute, slowdown or stoppage pending or, to the Knowledge of the Contributing Parties, threatened against any Contributing Party or any Contributed Entity with respect to any employee that will be providing services to such Contributed Entities.

3.17 Transactions with Affiliates.

Except as otherwise contemplated in this Agreement or as set forth on Disclosure Schedule 3.17, none of the Contributed Entities is a party to, and immediately after Closing will not be party to, any agreement, contract or arrangement between such Contributed Entity, on the one hand, and any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, other than those entered into (i) in the ordinary course of business relating to the provision of natural gas liquids and/or olefins processing, transportation, marketing or storage service, the interconnection of the respective pipeline systems of the Contributed Entities and their Affiliates, the provision of construction, operating and management services to the Contributed Entities, or the purchase or sale of natural gas for fuel or system requirements and (ii) among the Contributed Entities with respect to transactions or arrangements among Contributed Entities.

3.18 Insurance.

Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule 3.18, the Contributed Entities Assets are covered by, and immediately after the Closing will be insured under, insurance policies underwritten by reputable insurers that include coverages and related limits and deductibles that are customary for companies of similar size and complexity as the Contributing Parties in the natural gas liquids and/or olefins transportation, processing, marketing and storage industry, and consistent with past practice. All such insurance policies are in full force and effect, and all premiums due and payable on such policies will be paid through the date of Closing. No notice of cancellation of, or indication of an intention not to renew, any such insurance policy has been received by any Contributing Party other than in the ordinary course of business.

3.19 Intellectual Property Rights.

Each Contributed Entity owns or has the right to use all Intellectual Property necessary for or used in the conduct of its business as currently conducted by it, and its products and services do not infringe upon, misappropriate or otherwise violate any Intellectual Property of any third party. All Intellectual Property owned by any Contributed Entity, if any, is free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens). Neither the execution or delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will, with or without notice or lapse of time, result in, or give any other Person the right or option to cause or declare, a breach or termination of, or cancellation or reduction in, rights of any Contributed Entity under any contract providing for the license of any Intellectual Property to such Contributed Entity, except for any such terminations, cancellations or reductions that, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a Contributed Entity Material Adverse Effect. There is no Intellectual Property-related action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, notice or complaint pending or threatened

by any third party before any court or tribunal (including, without limitation, the United States Patent and Trademark Office or equivalent authority anywhere in the world) relating to any Contributed Entity or its operations, nor has any claim or demand been made by any third party that alleges any infringement, misappropriation or violation of any Intellectual Property of any third party, or unfair competition or trade practices by any of the Contributed Entities. Except as would not result in a Contributed Entity Material Adverse Effect, the Contributed Entities have taken reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of all material trade secrets.

3.20 Investment Company Act.

None of the Contributing Parties or the Contributed Entities is, nor immediately after the Closing will be, subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

3.21 Brokerage Arrangements.

The Contributing Parties have not entered (directly or indirectly) into any agreement with any Person that would obligate any Contributing Party to pay any commission, brokerage or “finder’s fee” or other similar fee in connection with this Agreement, the CCA Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

3.22 Books and Records.

Accurate copies of the respective books of account, minute books, stock or other equity record books of each Contributed Entity have been made available for inspection to the Partnership Parties.

3.23 Investment Intent.

The Contributing Parties have substantial experience in analyzing and investing in entities like the Partnership and are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of their investment in the Partnership. The Contributing Parties are being issued the Common Units in the Private Equity Placement and the Additional General Partner Units solely for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act or state securities laws. The Contributing Parties acknowledge that the Common Units issued in the Private Equity Placement and the Additional General Partner Units will not be registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, and that such Common Units issued in the Private Equity Placement and the Additional General Partner Units may not be transferred or sold except pursuant to the registration provisions of the Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption therefrom and pursuant to state securities laws and regulations as applicable. The Contributing Parties acknowledge that each certificate representing the Common Units issued in the Private Equity Placement shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY ACKNOWLEDGES FOR THE BENEFIT OF ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ PARTNERS L.P. THAT THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED, RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IF SUCH TRANSFER WOULD (A) VIOLATE THE THEN APPLICABLE FEDERAL OR STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION,

BECOMING TAXABLE AS A CORPORATION OR OTHERWISE BECOMING TAXABLE AS AN ENTITY FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES. THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH ABOVE SHALL NOT PRECLUDE THE SETTLEMENT OF ANY TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THIS SECURITY ENTERED INTO THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF ANY NATIONAL SECURITIES EXCHANGE ON WHICH THIS SECURITY IS LISTED OR ADMITTED TO TRADING.

VERBAL OR WRITTEN STATEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS OR INFORMATION PERTAINING TO ANY CONTRIBUTING PARTY, ANY CONTRIBUTED ENTITY OR SUCH CONTRIBUTED ENTITY’S ASSETS FURNISHED BY ANY AGENT, EMPLOYEE, SERVANT OR THIRD PARTY. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 3.24 HAVE BEEN NEGOTIATED BY THE PARTIES AFTER DUE CONSIDERATION AND ARE INTENDED TO BE A COMPLETE EXCLUSION AND NEGATION OF ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, WITH RESPECT TO THE CONTRIBUTING PARTIES, THE CONTRIBUTED ENTITIES OR SUCH CONTRIBUTED ENTITIES ASSETS THAT MAY ARISE PURSUANT TO ANY LAW NOW OR HEREAFTER IN EFFECT, OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONTRIBUTING PARTIES CLOSING DOCUMENTS.

The Contributing Parties shall be liable for, and shall indemnify and hold the Partnership Parties and their respective subsidiaries harmless from any Taxes, together with any costs, expenses, losses or damages, including reasonable expenses of investigation and attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses, arising out of or incident to the determination, assessment or collection of such Taxes (“Tax Losses”), (i) imposed on or incurred by the Contributed Entities by reason of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous state, local or foreign law or regulation which is attributable to having been a member of any consolidated, combined or unitary group on or prior to and including the Closing Date, (ii) any Tax Losses (other than Tax Losses described in clause (i) above) imposed on or incurred by or with respect to the Contributed Entities or the Contributed Entities Assets with respect to the period prior to and including the Closing Date, or (iii) attributable to a breach by any Contributing Party of any representation (other than those contained in Section 3.10, to which ARTICLE 9 shall be applicable), warranty or covenant with respect to Taxes in this Agreement.

(b)

The Partnership Parties shall be liable for, and shall indemnify and hold the Contributing Parties and their Affiliates (other than the Partnership Parties and their subsidiaries) harmless from, any Tax Losses (i) imposed on or incurred by or with respect to the Contributed Entities or the Contributed Entities Assets with respect to the period after the Closing Date, or (ii) attributable to a breach by the Partnership Parties of any covenant with respect to Taxes in this Agreement.

Whenever it is necessary for purposes of this ARTICLE 7 to determine the amount of any Taxes imposed on or incurred by or with respect to the Contributed Entities or the Contributed Entities Assets for a taxable period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date which is allocable to the period prior to and including the Closing Date, the determination shall be made, in the case of property or ad valorem taxes or franchise taxes (which are measured by, or based solely upon capital, debt or a combination of capital and debt), on a per diem basis and, in the case of

other Taxes, by assuming that such pre-Closing Date period constitutes a separate taxable period applicable to the Contributed Entities and by taking into account the actual taxable events occurring during such period (except that exemptions, allowances and deductions for a taxable period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date that are calculated on an annual or periodic basis, such as the deduction for depreciation, shall be apportioned to the period prior to and including the Closing Date ratably on a per diem basis).

ARTICLE 9

INDEMNIFICATION UPON CLOSING

9.1 Indemnification of the Partnership Parties.

Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, the Contributing Parties, from and after the Closing Date, shall indemnify, defend and hold the Partnership Parties, their subsidiaries and their respective securityholders, directors, officers, and employees, and the officers, directors and employees of the General Partner, but otherwise excluding the Contributing Parties and its Affiliates (the “Partnership Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all Damages suffered or incurred by any Partnership Indemnified Party as a result of or arising out of (i) any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty of the Contributing Parties in this Agreement or any Contributing Parties Closing Document, (ii) any breach of any agreement or covenant on the part of the Contributing Parties made under this Agreement or any Contributing Parties Closing Document or in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, or (iii) any breach or violation of any Environmental Laws by the Contributed Entities that occurs prior to Closing; provided, however, that with regard to subsection (iii), the Contributing Parties shall only be required to indemnify the Partnership Indemnified Parties for Damages attributable to the Contributed Interest. For purposes of this Section 9.1, whether the Contributing Parties have breached any of their representations and warranties herein shall be determined without giving effect to any qualification as to “materiality” (including the word “material” or “Contributed Entity Material Adverse Effect”).

9.2 Indemnification of the Contributing Parties.

Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, the Partnership Parties shall indemnify, defend and hold the Contributing Parties, their Affiliates (other than any of the Partnership Indemnified Parties) and their respective securityholders, directors, officers, and employees (the “Contributing Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all Damages suffered or incurred by the Contributing Indemnified Parties as a result of or arising out of (i) any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty of the Partnership Parties in this Agreement or any Partnership Parties Closing Document, or (ii) any breach of any agreement or covenant on the part of the Partnership Parties made under this Agreement or any Partnership Parties Closing Document or in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby or thereby. For purposes of this Section 9.2, whether the Partnership Parties have breached any of their representations and warranties herein shall be determined without giving effect to any qualification as to “materiality” (including the word “material” or “Partnership Material Adverse Effect”).

9.3 Tax Indemnification.

With the exception of a breach or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties of the Contributing Parties contained in Section 3.10, nothing in this ARTICLE 9 shall apply to liability with respect to Taxes, the liability with respect to which shall be as set forth in ARTICLE 7.

9.4 Survival.

All the provisions of this Agreement shall survive the Closing, notwithstanding any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any party hereto, provided that the representations and warranties set forth in ARTICLE 3 and ARTICLE 4 and in any certificate delivered in connection herewith with respect to any of those representations and warranties shall terminate and expire on the first day of the 18^th month following the month in which Closing occurs, except (a) the representations and warranties of the Contributing Parties set forth in Section 3.10 shall survive until 30 days after the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations (including all periods of extension and tolling), (b) the representations and warranties of the Contributing Parties set forth in Section 3.11 and Section 3.15 shall terminate and expire on the third anniversary of the Closing Date, (c) the representations and warranties of the Contributing Parties set forth in Section 3.1, Section 3.2 and Section 3.4 shall survive forever and (d) the representations and warranties of the Partnership Parties set forth in Section 4.1 and Section 4.2 shall survive forever. After a representation and warranty has terminated and expired, no indemnification shall or may be sought pursuant to this ARTICLE 9 on the basis of that representation and warranty by any Person who would have been entitled pursuant to this ARTICLE 9 to indemnification on the basis of that representation and warranty prior to its termination and expiration, provided that in the case of each representation and warranty that shall terminate and expire as provided in this Section 9.4, no claim presented in writing for indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE 9 on the basis of that representation and warranty prior to its termination and expiration shall be affected in any way by that termination and expiration. The indemnification obligations under this ARTICLE 9 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall apply regardless of whether any suit or action results solely or in part from the active, passive or concurrent negligence or strict liability of the indemnified party. The covenants and agreements entered into pursuant to this Agreement to be performed after the Closing shall survive the Closing.

9.5 Demands.

Each indemnified party hereunder agrees that promptly upon its discovery of facts giving rise to a claim for indemnity under the provisions of this Agreement, including receipt by it of notice of any demand, assertion, claim, action or proceeding, judicial or otherwise, by any third party (such claims for indemnity involving third-party claims being collectively referred to herein as the “Indemnity Claim”), with respect to any matter as to which it claims to be entitled to indemnity under the provisions of this Agreement, it will give prompt notice thereof in writing to the indemnifying party, together with a statement of such information respecting any of the foregoing as it shall have. Such notice shall include a formal demand for indemnification under this Agreement.

If the indemnified party knowingly failed to notify the indemnifying party thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement in sufficient time to permit the indemnifying party or its counsel to defend against an Indemnity Claim and to make a timely response thereto, the indemnifying party’s indemnity obligation relating to such Indemnity Claim shall be limited to the extent that such failure has actually prejudiced or damaged the indemnifying party with respect to that Indemnity Claim.

9.6 Right to Contest and Defend.

The indemnifying party shall be entitled, at its cost and expense, to contest and defend by all appropriate legal proceedings any Indemnity Claim for which it is called upon to indemnify the indemnified party under the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that notice of the intention to so contest shall be delivered by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party within twenty (20) days from the date of receipt by the indemnifying party of notice by the indemnified party of the assertion of the Indemnity Claim. Any such contest may be conducted in the name and on behalf of the indemnifying party or the indemnified party as may be appropriate. Such contest shall be conducted by reputable counsel employed by the indemnifying party and not reasonably objected to by the indemnified party, but the indemnified party shall have the right but not the obligation to participate in such proceedings and to be represented by counsel of its own choosing at its sole cost and expense.

The indemnifying party shall have full authority to determine all action to be taken with respect thereto; provided, however, that the indemnifying party will not have the authority to subject the indemnified party to any obligation whatsoever, other than the performance of purely ministerial tasks or obligations not involving material expense or injunctive relief. If the indemnifying party does not elect to contest any such Indemnity Claim, the indemnifying party shall be bound by the result obtained with respect thereto by the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of an Indemnity Claim, the indemnified party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of an Indemnity Claim that the indemnifying party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the indemnifying party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Indemnity Claim, which releases the indemnified party completely in connection with such Indemnity Claim and which would not otherwise adversely affect the indemnified party as determined by the indemnified party in its sole discretion.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Indemnity Claim (and shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel incurred by the indemnified party in defending such Indemnity Claim) if the Indemnity Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than money damages against the indemnified party which the indemnified party reasonably determines, after conferring with its outside counsel, cannot be separated from any related claim for money damages. If such equitable relief or other relief portion of the Indemnity Claim can be so separated from that for money damages, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of the portion relating to money damages.

9.7 Cooperation.

If requested by the indemnifying party, the indemnified party agrees to cooperate with the indemnifying party and its counsel in contesting any Indemnity Claim that the indemnifying party elects to contest or, if appropriate, in making any counterclaim against the person asserting the Indemnity Claim, or any cross-complaint against any person, and the indemnifying party will reimburse the indemnified party for any expenses incurred by it in so cooperating. At no cost or expense to the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall cooperate with the indemnified party and its counsel in contesting any Indemnity Claim.

9.8 Right to Participate.

The indemnified party agrees to afford the indemnifying party and its counsel the opportunity to be present at, and to participate in, conferences with all Persons, including Governmental Authorities, asserting any Indemnity Claim against the indemnified party or conferences with representatives of or counsel for such Persons.

9.9 Payment of Damages.

The indemnification required hereunder in respect of Indemnity Claims shall be made by periodic payments of the amount of Damages in connection therewith, within ten (10) days as and when reasonably specific bills are received by, or Damages are incurred and reasonable evidence thereof is delivered to, the indemnifying party. In calculating any amount to be paid by an indemnifying party by reason of the provisions of this Agreement, the amount shall be reduced by all insurance proceeds and any indemnification reimbursement proceeds received from third parties credited to or received by the indemnified party related to the Damages.

9.10 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a)

To the extent that the Partnership Indemnified Parties would otherwise be entitled to indemnification for Damages pursuant to Section 9.1, the Contributing Parties shall be liable only if (i) the Damages with respect to a claim exceed $825,000 (the “Minimum Claim Amount”) and (ii) the Damages for all claims that exceed the Minimum Claim Amount exceed, in the aggregate, $24,000,000 (the “Deductible Amount”), and then the Contributing Parties shall be liable only for Damages to the extent of any excess over the Deductible Amount. In no event shall the Contributing Parties’ aggregate liability to the Partnership Indemnified Parties under Section 9.1 exceed $280,000,000 (the “Ceiling Amount”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Deductible Amount shall not apply to breaches or inaccuracies of representations and warranties contained in Section 3.1, Section 3.2, Section 3.4, Section 3.21 and Section 3.22 and (ii) the Ceiling Amount shall not apply to breaches or inaccuracies of representations and warranties contained in Section 3.4; provided, that the Contributing Parties’ aggregate liability for a breach or inaccuracy of such Section 3.4 shall not exceed an amount equal to the Aggregate Consideration minus the amount of all other Damages payable by the Contributing Parties hereunder.

(b)

To the extent the Contributing Indemnified Parties would otherwise be entitled to indemnification for Damages pursuant to Section 9.2, the Partnership Parties shall be liable only if (i) the Damages with respect to a claim exceed the Minimum Claim Amount and (ii) the Damages for all claims that exceed the Minimum Claim Amount exceed, in the aggregate, the Deductible Amount, and then the Partnership Parties shall be liable only for Damages to the extent of any excess over the Deductible Amount. In no event shall the Partnership Parties’ aggregate liability to the Contributing Indemnified Parties under Section 9.2 exceed the Ceiling Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Deductible Amount shall not apply to breaches or inaccuracies of representations and warranties contained in Section 4.1, Section 4.2 and Section 4.4.

(c)

Additionally, neither the Partnership Parties, on the one hand, nor the Contributing Parties, on the other hand, will be liable as an indemnitor under this Agreement for any consequential, incidental, special, indirect or exemplary damages suffered or incurred by the indemnified party or parties except to the extent resulting pursuant to Indemnity Claims.

9.11 Sole Remedy.

Should the Closing occur, no party shall have liability under this Agreement, any of the Closing Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby except as is provided in ARTICLE 7 or this ARTICLE 9 (other than claims or causes of action arising from intentional fraud).
