In addition, the Partnership proposes to grant to the Underwriters an option to purchase up to 1,000,000 additional Preferred Units on the terms set forth in Section 2 (the “Option Units”).

On the basis of such review, the BreitBurn Entities have reasonably concluded that such associated costs and liabilities could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Any certificate signed by any officer of the BreitBurn Parties and delivered to the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters in connection with the offering of the Units shall be deemed a representation and warranty by such entity, jointly and severally, as to matters covered thereby, to each Underwriter.

2. Purchase of the Units by the Underwriters. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements contained in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, the Partnership agrees to issue and sell the Firm Units to the several Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase the number of Firm Units set forth opposite that Underwriter’s name in Schedule I hereto. The respective purchase obligations of the Underwriters with respect to the Firm Units shall be rounded among the Underwriters to avoid fractional Units, as the Representatives may determine.

In addition, the Partnership grants to the Underwriters an option to purchase all or a portion of the Option Units. Such option is exercisable in the event that the Underwriters sell more Preferred Units than the number of Firm Units in the offering and as set forth in Section 4 hereof. Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Partnership the number of Option Units (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional Units as the Representatives may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Option Units to be sold on such Delivery Date as the number of Firm Units set forth in Schedule I hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Units.

The price of both the Firm Units and any Option Units purchased by the Underwriters shall be $24.2125 per Preferred Unit.

The Partnership shall not be obligated to deliver any of the Firm Units or Option Units to be delivered on the applicable Delivery Date, except upon payment for all such Units to be purchased on such Delivery Date as provided herein.

This date and time are sometimes referred to as the “Initial Delivery Date.” Delivery of the Firm Units shall be made to the Representatives for the account of each Underwriter against payment by the several Underwriters through the Representatives and of the respective aggregate purchase prices of the Firm Units being sold by the Partnership to or upon the order of the Partnership of the purchase price by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Partnership. Time shall be of the essence, and delivery at the time and place specified pursuant to this Agreement is a further condition of the obligation of each Underwriter hereunder. The Partnership shall deliver the Firm Units through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) unless the Representatives shall otherwise instruct.

The option granted in Section 2 will expire 30 days after the date of this Agreement and may be exercised in whole or from time to time in part by written notice being given to the Partnership by the Representatives; provided that if such date falls on a day that is not a business day, the option granted in Section 2 will expire on the next succeeding business day. Such notice shall set forth the aggregate number of Option Units as to which the option is being exercised, the names in which the Option Units are to be registered, the denominations in which the Option Units are to be issued and the date and time, as determined by the Representatives, when the Option Units are to be delivered; provided, however, that this date and time shall not be earlier than the Initial Delivery Date nor earlier than the second business day after the date on which the option shall have been exercised nor later than the fifth business day after the date on which the option shall have been exercised. Each date and time the Option Units are delivered is sometimes referred to as an “Option Unit Delivery Date,” and the Initial Delivery Date and any Option Unit Delivery Date are sometimes each referred to as a “Delivery Date.”

Delivery of the Option Units by the Partnership and payment for the Option Units by the several Underwriters through the Representatives shall be made at 10:00 A.M. New York City time, on the date specified in the corresponding notice described in the preceding paragraph or at such other date and time as shall be determined by agreement among the Representatives and the Partnership.

Time shall be of the essence, and delivery at the time and place specified pursuant to this Agreement is a further condition of the obligation of each Underwriter hereunder. The Partnership shall deliver the Option Units through the facilities of DTC unless the Representatives shall otherwise instruct.

(l) Each of the BreitBurn Parties shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to the Representatives a certificate, dated such Delivery Date, signed on its behalf by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the General Partner, or other officers satisfactory to the Representatives, as to such matters as the Representatives may reasonably request, including, without limitation, a statement that:

(ii) No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued; no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to the knowledge of such officers, threatened; and the Commission has not notified the Partnership of any objection to the use of the form of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto; and

(iii) They have examined the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Pricing Disclosure Package, and, in their opinion, (A) (1) the Registration Statement, as of the latest Effective Date, (2) the Prospectus, as of its date and on the applicable Delivery Date, or (3) the Pricing Disclosure Package, as of the Applicable Time and on the applicable Delivery Date, did not and do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and did not and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (except in the case of the Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and (B) since the latest Effective Date, no event has occurred that should have been set forth in a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that has not been so set forth.

(m) Subsequent to the earlier of (A) the Applicable Time and (B) the execution and delivery of this Agreement, (i) no downgrading shall have occurred in the rating accorded any debt securities or preferred stock issued or guaranteed by any of the BreitBurn Entities by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization,” as such term is defined by the Commission for purposes of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act; and (ii) no such organization shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review, or has changed its outlook with respect to, its rating of any debt securities or preferred stock issued or guaranteed by any of the BreitBurn Entities (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading).

(n) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement there shall not have occurred any of the following: (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, or in the over-the-counter market, or trading in any securities of the Partnership on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market, shall have been suspended or materially limited or the settlement of such trading generally shall have been materially disrupted or minimum prices shall have been established on any such exchange or such market by the Commission, by such exchange or by any other regulatory body or governmental authority having jurisdiction, (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or state authorities, (iii) the United States shall have become engaged in hostilities, there shall have been an escalation in hostilities involving the United States or there shall have been a declaration of a national emergency or war by the United States or (iv) such a material adverse change in general economic, political or financial conditions, including, without limitation, as a result of terrorist activities after the date hereof (or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States shall be such), as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or delivery of the Units being delivered on such Delivery Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.

(o) The Partnership shall have made commercially reasonable efforts to effect listing of the Units on the NASDAQ within 30 days of each Delivery Date.

8. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Each of the BreitBurn Parties hereby agrees, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates and agents participating in this offering (a “Participating Affiliate”), directors, officers and employees and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of Units), to which that Underwriter, Participating Affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue

statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (A) the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto, (B) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (C) any Permitted Issuer Information used or referred to in any “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Rules and Regulations) used or referred to by any Underwriter, (D) any “road show” (as defined in Rule 433 of the Rules and Regulations) not constituting an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (a “Non-Prospectus Road Show”) or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Permitted Issuer Information or any Non-Prospectus Road Show, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made (other than with respect to the Registration Statement), not misleading, and shall reimburse each Underwriter and each such Participating Affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Underwriter, Participating Affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the BreitBurn Parties shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any such amendment or supplement thereto or in any Permitted Issuer Information or any Non-Prospectus Road Show, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such Underwriter furnished to the Partnership through the Representatives by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, which information consists solely of the information specified in Section 8(e). In the event that it is finally judicially determined that the Underwriters were not entitled to receive payments for legal and other expenses pursuant to this subparagraph, the Underwriters will promptly return all sums that had been advanced pursuant hereto. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that the BreitBurn Parties may otherwise have to any Underwriter or to any Participating Affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person of that Underwriter.

(b) Each Underwriter hereby agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the BreitBurn Parties, each of their respective directors, managers, officers and employees, and each person, if any, who controls any of the BreitBurn Parties within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the BreitBurn Parties or any such director, manager, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration

Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such Underwriter furnished to the Partnership through the Representatives by or on behalf of that Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, which information is limited to the information set forth in Section 8(e), and shall reimburse the BreitBurn Parties and any such director, manager, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred. In the event that it is finally judicially determined that the BreitBurn Parties were not entitled to receive payments for legal and other expenses pursuant to this subparagraph, the BreitBurn Parties will promptly return all sums that had been advanced pursuant hereto. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that any Underwriter may otherwise have to the BreitBurn Parties or any such director, manager, officer, employee or controlling person.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this Section 8 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure and, provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that the indemnified party shall have the right to employ counsel to represent jointly the indemnified party and those other indemnified parties and their respective directors, officers, employees and controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Section 8 if (i) the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall have so mutually agreed; (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; (iii) the indemnified party and its directors, officers, employees and controlling persons shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to them that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnified parties

or their respective directors, officers, employees or controlling persons, on the one hand, and the indemnifying party, on the other hand, and representation of both sets of parties by the same counsel would present a conflict due to actual or potential differing interests between them, and in any such event the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include any findings of fact or admissions of fault or culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party, or (ii) be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 shall for any reason be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a), 8(b), or 8(c) in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the BreitBurn Parties, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, from the offering of the Units or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the BreitBurn Parties, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the BreitBurn Parties, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Units purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Partnership, as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters with respect to the Units purchased under this Agreement, as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus, on the other hand. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the BreitBurn Parties or the Underwriters, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The BreitBurn Parties and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 8(d) were to be

determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 8(d), 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 Section 8(d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds from the sale of the Units underwritten by it exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any 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 Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 8(d) are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

(e) The Underwriters severally confirm that the statements with respect to the delivery of Preferred Units by the Underwriters set forth on the cover page of, and the selling concession figure and the paragraphs relating to stabilization by the Underwriters appearing under the caption “Underwriting” in, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus are correct and the BreitBurn Parties acknowledge and agree that such statements constitute the only information concerning such Underwriters furnished in writing to the Partnership by or on behalf of the Underwriters specifically for inclusion in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Non-Prospectus Road Show.

9. Defaulting Underwriters. If, on any Delivery Date, any Underwriter defaults in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the remaining non-defaulting Underwriter(s) shall be obligated to purchase the Units that the defaulting Underwriter(s) agreed but failed to purchase on such Delivery Date in the respective proportions which the number of Firm Units set forth opposite the name of each remaining non-defaulting Underwriter in Schedule I hereto bears to the total number of Firm Units set forth opposite the names of all the remaining non-defaulting Underwriters in Schedule I hereto; provided, however, that the remaining non-defaulting Underwriters shall not be obligated to purchase any of the Units on such Delivery Date if the total number of Units that the defaulting Underwriter(s) agreed but failed to purchase on such date exceeds 10% of the total number of Units to be purchased on such Delivery Date, and any remaining non-defaulting Underwriter shall not be obligated to purchase more than 110% of the number of Units that it agreed to purchase on such Delivery Date pursuant to the terms of Section 2 hereof. If the foregoing maximums are exceeded, the remaining non-defaulting Underwriters, or those other underwriters satisfactory to the Representatives who so agree, shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to purchase, in such proportion as may be agreed upon among them, all the Units to be purchased on such Delivery Date. If the remaining non-defaulting Underwriter(s) or other underwriters satisfactory to the Representatives do not elect to purchase the Units that the defaulting Underwriter(s)

agreed but failed to purchase on such Delivery Date, this Agreement (or, with respect to any Option Unit Delivery Date, the obligation of the Underwriter(s) to purchase, and of the Partnership to sell, the Option Units) shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the BreitBurn Parties, except that the BreitBurn Parties will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses to the extent set forth in Sections 6 and 11. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context requires otherwise, any party not listed in Schedule I hereto that, pursuant to this Section 9, purchases Units that a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have to the BreitBurn Parties for damages caused by its default. If other Underwriters are obligated or agree to purchase the Units of a defaulting or withdrawing Underwriter, either the Representatives or the Partnership may postpone the Delivery Date for up to seven full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Partnership or counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package or in any other document or arrangement.

10. Termination. The obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be terminated by the Representatives by notice given to and received by the Partnership prior to delivery of and payment for the Firm Units if, prior to that time, any of the events described in Section 7(k) or 7(m) shall have occurred or if the Underwriters shall decline to purchase the Units for any reason permitted under this Agreement.

11. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the Partnership shall fail to tender the Units for delivery to the Underwriters (i) by reason of any failure, refusal or inability of the BreitBurn Parties to perform any agreement on their respective parts to be performed, (ii) because any other condition to the Underwriters’ obligations hereunder required to be fulfilled by any of the BreitBurn Parties is not fulfilled for any reason or (iii) because the Underwriters shall decline to purchase the Units for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Partnership will reimburse the Underwriters for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Underwriters in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Units, and upon demand the Partnership shall pay the full amount thereof to the Representatives; provided, however, that if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 by reason of the default of one or more Underwriters, the Partnership shall not be obligated to reimburse any Underwriters on account of those expenses.

12. Research Analyst Independence. Each of the BreitBurn Parties acknowledges that each Underwriter’s research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that such Underwriter’s research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Partnership or the offering of the Units that differ from the views of their respective investment banking divisions. Each of the BreitBurn Parties hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that such party 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 Partnership by such Underwriter’s investment banking divisions. Each of the BreitBurn Parties acknowledges 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 positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

13. No Fiduciary Duty. Each of the BreitBurn Parties acknowledges and agrees that in connection with this offering, the sale of the Units, or any other services the Underwriters may be deemed to be providing hereunder, notwithstanding any preexisting relationship, advisory or otherwise, between the parties or any oral representations or assurances previously or subsequently made by the Underwriters: (i) no fiduciary or agency relationship between any of the BreitBurn Parties and any other person, on the one hand, and any Underwriter, on the other, exists; (ii) no Underwriter is acting as an advisor, expert or otherwise, to any of the BreitBurn Parties, including, without limitation, with respect to the determination of the public offering price of the Units, and such relationship between any of the BreitBurn Parties, on the one hand, and any Underwriter, on the other, is entirely and solely commercial, based on arms-length negotiations; (iii) any duties and obligations that any Underwriter may have to any of the BreitBurn Parties shall be limited to those duties and obligations specifically stated herein; (iv) each Underwriter and its respective affiliates may have interests that differ from those of the BreitBurn Parties; and (v) the BreitBurn Parties have each consulted their own legal and financial advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. Each of the BreitBurn Parties hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against any Underwriter with respect to any breach of fiduciary duty in connection with this offering of Units.

14. Notices, Etc. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and:

To such counsel’s knowledge, neither the filing of the Registration Statement nor the offering, issuance or sale of the Units as contemplated by this Agreement gives rise to any rights for or relating to the registration of any Units or other securities of the Partnership other than rights which have been waived.

(xii) Each of the BreitBurn Parties has all requisite power and authority necessary to enter into this Agreement, and the Partnership has all requisite partnership power and authority to issue, sell and deliver the Units, in accordance with and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement. All partnership and limited liability company action, as the case may be, required to be taken by any of the BreitBurn Parties or any of their respective unitholders, members or partners for the authorization, issuance, sale and delivery of the Units, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the application of the proceeds from the sale of the Units as described under “Use of Proceeds” in each of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus has been validly taken.

(xiii) This Agreement has been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the BreitBurn Parties.

A-3

constitute such a default) under any document listed on Annex 3 to this opinion, (C) violate the Delaware LP Act, the Delaware LLC Act, or federal law (collectively, the “Included Laws”), or (D) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of any of the Delaware Entities, which breach, violation, default or lien, in the case of clauses (B), (C) or (D), could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or could reasonably be expected to materially impair the ability of any of the BreitBurn Parties to perform their obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that no opinion as to securities law is expressed in relation to the preceding clause (C).

(xv) No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration, filing or qualification of or with any court, governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over any of the Delaware Entities or any of their properties or assets is required in connection with the issuance and sale by the Partnership of the Units, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the BreitBurn Parties or the application of the proceeds from the sale of the Units as described under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in each of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus except for such permits, registrations, filings, consents, approvals and similar authorizations required under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and state securities or “Blue Sky” laws, as to which such counsel need not express any opinion.

(xvi) The Registration Statement became effective on May 18, 2012, and the Prospectus was filed with the Commission pursuant to the subparagraph of Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations specified in such opinion. To the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceeding or examination for such purpose has been instituted or threatened by the Commission.

(xvii) Each of (i) the Registration Statement, on the latest Effective Date, and (ii) the Prospectus, as of its date and the date hereof, appear on its face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act and the Rules and Regulations, except that in each case such counsel need express no opinion with respect to the financial statements and the notes and financial schedules thereto and or other financial, reserve or statistical data contained or incorporated by reference in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus.

(xviii) The statements made or incorporated by reference in each of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the captions “Summary—The Offering,” “Description of the Preferred Units,” “The Partnership Agreement,” “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” and “Risk Factors—Tax Risks to Unitholders,” as updated, amended or supplemented by the statements made or incorporated by reference in each of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, insofar as they purport to constitute summaries of the terms of the Preferred Units or statutes, rules or regulations, legal and governmental proceedings or contracts and other documents, constitute accurate summaries of the terms of such Preferred Units, statutes, rules and regulations, legal and governmental proceedings and contracts and other documents in all material respects. The description of the federal statutes and regulations set forth or incorporated by reference in each of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under “Business—Environmental Matters and Regulation” and “Business—Other Regulation of the Oil and Gas Industry” fairly describe in all material respects the portions of the federal statutes and regulations addressed thereby.

A-4

(xix) Each of the Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement, the OLP Agreement, the GP LLC Agreement and the OLP GP Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the parties thereto and is a valid and legally binding agreement of such parties thereto, enforceable against the parties thereto in accordance with their respective terms; provided, that, with respect to each such agreement, the enforceability thereof may be limited by (A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws from time to time in effect affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such principles are considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (B) public policy, applicable law relating to fiduciary duties and indemnification and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(xx) The opinion of counsel filed as Exhibit 8.1 to the Partnership’s Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed on or prior to the Initial Delivery Date and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement is confirmed and the Underwriters may rely upon such opinion as if it were addressed to them.

(xxi) None of the Delaware Entities is and, after giving effect to the offer and sale of the Units and the application of the proceeds therefrom as described under “Use of Proceeds” in each of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, none of them will be, as a result thereof, an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

In rendering such opinion, such counsel may (i) rely in respect of matters of fact upon certificates of officers and employees of the BreitBurn Parties and upon information obtained from public officials, (ii) assume that all documents submitted to them as originals are authentic, that all copies submitted to them conform to the originals thereof, and that the signatures on all documents examined by them are genuine, (iii) state that its opinion is limited to matters governed by the federal laws of the United States of America, the Delaware LP Act, the Delaware LLC Act and the DGCL, (iv) with respect to the opinions expressed as to the due qualification or registration as a foreign limited partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, of the BreitBurn Entities, state that such opinions are based upon certificates of foreign qualification or registration provided by the Secretary of State of the States listed on Annex 2 hereof (each of which shall be dated as of a date not more than fourteen days prior to the Initial Delivery Date and shall be provided to the Representatives) and (v) state that they express no opinion with respect to state or local taxes or tax statutes to which any of the limited partners of the Partnership or any of the BreitBurn Entities may be subject.

A-5

responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in, the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (except to the extent specified in clauses (xviii) and (xix) in the foregoing opinion), based on the foregoing, no facts have come to such counsel’s attention that lead such counsel to believe that:

(i) Each of Mercury Michigan Company, LLC, Beaver Creek Pipeline, L.L.C., Terra Energy Company LLC and Terra Pipeline Company LLC (collectively, the “Michigan Entities”) is validly existing and is in good standing as a limited liability company, under the laws of the state of Michigan. Each of the Michigan Entities has full limited liability company power and authority necessary to own or lease its properties and to conduct its business to be conducted at the Initial Delivery Date, in each case in all material respects as described in each of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. Each of the Michigan Entities is duly qualified to do business and in good standing as a foreign limited liability company in each jurisdiction as set forth on Annex 1 to this opinion.

(ii) The Operating LP owns, directly or indirectly, all of the outstanding membership interests in the Michigan Entities; such membership interests have been duly authorized and validly issued in accordance with the applicable limited liability company agreement of such entity and are fully paid (to the extent required under the applicable limited liability company agreement) and nonassessable (except as such nonassessability may be affected by the laws of the State of Michigan); and the Operating LP owns such membership interests free and clear of all Liens (except restrictions on transferability as described in the Pricing Disclosure Package) (i) in respect of which a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Michigan naming the Operating LP as a debtor is on file in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Michigan or (ii) otherwise known to such counsel, without independent investigation, other than those created by or arising under the laws of the State of Michigan or the Credit Facility.

In rendering such opinion, such counsel may (A) rely in respect of material matters of fact upon certificates of officers and employees of the Michigan Entities and upon information obtained from public officials, (B) assume that all documents submitted to them as originals are authentic, that all copies submitted to them conform to the originals thereof, and that the signatures on all documents examined by them are genuine, (C) state that their opinions are limited to the laws of the State of Michigan and federal laws, (D) with respect to the opinions expressed in paragraph 1 above as to the due qualification or registration of each of the Michigan Entities as a foreign limited liability company, as the case may be, state that such opinions are based upon certificates of foreign qualification or registration provided by the Secretary of State of the applicable state (each of which will be dated not more than ten days prior to such Delivery Date, as the case may be, and shall be provided to the Representatives) and (E) state that they express no opinion with respect to state or local taxes or tax statutes to which the Michigan Entities may be subject.

FORM OF OPINION OF GENERAL COUNSEL

(i) None of (i) the offering and sale by the Partnership of the Units, (ii) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or (iii) the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby by each of the BreitBurn Parties party thereto and the application of the proceeds from the sale of the Units as described under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in each of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, by the BreitBurn Parties conflicts with, or, results in a breach, default (and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or otherwise, would constitute such an event) or violation of, or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of the BreitBurn Entities pursuant to (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease or other agreement or instrument known to me (excluding any agreements or instruments listed on Annex 3 to Exhibit A of this Agreement) to which any of the BreitBurn Entities is a party or by which any of them or any of their properties may be bound, or (ii) any order, judgment, decree or injunction known to me of any court or governmental agency or body to which any of the BreitBurn Entities or any of their properties is subject, which conflict, breach, default, violation or lien could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or could reasonably be expected to materially impair the ability of any of the BreitBurn Parties to perform their obligations under the Agreement.

(ii) Such counsel knows of no material legal or governmental actions, suits or proceedings pending or threatened against any of the BreitBurn Entities that would be required to be described in a registration statement filed under the Securities Act, except as set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. To such counsel’s knowledge, other than as set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which the BreitBurn Entities are a party or of which any property of the BreitBurn Entities is the subject which are likely to result in, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. Other than as set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, to such counsel’s knowledge, no such proceedings have been overtly threatened in writing by governmental authorities or by others, which have not been resolved.

In rendering such opinion, such counsel may (A) rely in respect of matters of fact upon certificates of officers and employees of BreitBurn Entities and upon information obtained from public officials, (B) assume that all documents submitted to him as originals are authentic, that all copies submitted to him conform to the originals thereof, and that the signatures on all documents examined by him are genuine, (C) state that his opinion is limited to federal laws and the laws of the State of California and (D) with respect to the opinion expressed in (ii) above, state that his opinion is limited to and based upon the pleadings of which he is aware, filed as of the date of such opinion, in pending actions, suits or proceedings against or affecting the BreitBurn Entities or any of their respective properties.

In addition, such counsel shall state that they have participated in conferences with certain officers and other representatives of the BreitBurn Parties, representatives of the independent public accountants and reserve engineers of the Partnership and with your representatives and counsel, at which the contents of the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and related matters were discussed, and although such counsel has not independently verified, is not passing upon, and is not assuming any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in, the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (except to the extent specified in the foregoing opinion), based on the foregoing, no facts have come to such counsel’s attention that have caused such counsel to believe that:

(A) the Registration Statement, as of the latest Effective Date, included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading,

(C) the Prospectus, as of its issue date or as of such applicable Delivery Date, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,

it being understood that such counsel expresses no statement or belief with respect to the financial statements and related schedules, including the notes and schedules thereto and the auditor’s report thereon, or any other financial and accounting and reserve information, included or incorporated by reference in, or excluded from, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.
