4.9.2 Immediately following the last to occur of the events referred to in clauses (a), (b) and (d) of Section 4.9.1, and the satisfaction of all conditions set forth in the precedent agreements for execution of the gas transportation contracts by the shippers which will utilize the capacity of the Incremental Expansion (other than the vote of the Management Committee to commit to construct or acquire the Incremental Expansion), or at such time as determined by the Management Committee, the Management Committee shall vote on whether the Partnership shall be committed to construct or acquire the Incremental Expansion. The vote required for a commitment to construct or acquire an Incremental Expansion, or for a waiver of the conditions precedent to such a commitment, shall be (i) a Super-Majority Vote if the estimated cost of such Incremental Expansion as determined pursuant to Section 4.8.2(a) exceeds Ten Million Dollars, and (ii) a Majority Vote if the estimated cost of such Incremental Expansion as determined pursuant to Section 4.8.2(a) is Ten Million Dollars or less.

4.10 Regulatory And Financing Decisions With Respect To Incremental Expansions. All votes on regulatory and financial matters with respect to an Incremental Expansion, including without limitation the filing of applications for Additional

Necessary Regulatory Approvals or amendments thereto, acceptance of all such approvals and amendments, the filing of any tariff or tariff revisions relating to an Incremental Expansion, and execution of financing agreements and commitments related to an Incremental Expansion, shall be subject to the same voting standard set forth in Section 4.9 for approval of the commitment to construct or acquire; provided, however, that approval of the Management Committee shall not be required in the case of the acceptance by the Operator, pursuant to Section 3.1.2 of the Operating Agreement, of Additional Necessary Regulatory Approvals and amendments thereto if the terms of such approvals do not vary materially from the authorizations sought in the related regulatory applications.

4.11 Notwithstanding Sections 4.8, 4.9 or 4.10, Management Committee approval to develop or construct or acquire an Incremental Expansion shall not be required in the case of Incremental Expansions or other capital facilities which (!) do not exceed in any one instance a cost of one million dollars ($1,000,000); (2) will be constructed pursuant to the Partnership’s blanket certificate; and (3) have been included in the most recent budget approved by the Management Committee pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Operating Agreement, and all regulatory and financing decisions with respect to the same shall be made by the Operator without further approval of the Management Committee.

5. Percentage Interests; Capital Contributions.

5.1 Percentage Interests. Each Partner’s Percentage Interest as of any date shall equal the percentage equivalent of a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of such Partner’s Capital Contributions to the Partnership as of such date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of Capital Contributions made by all of the Partners to the Partnership as of such date; provided that, for purposes of this Section 5.1, the initial Capital Contribution of each Partner shall be deemed to equal the amount of its Capital Account as of the date hereof. As of the date hereof, each Partner’s Percentage Interest is set forth on Schedule A to this Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed by unanimous consent of the Partners, in the event of (a) the withdrawal of a Partner pursuant to Section 12.3 or (b) a transfer of a Partner’s Interest pursuant to Section 11 or Section 5.5.3(c), or (c) the implementation of the remedy set forth in Section 5.5.3(a) in connection with a Defaulted Contribution, the Percentage Interests set forth on Schedule A shall be adjusted accordingly, rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth of one percent.

5.2 Additional Capital Contributions.

5.2.1 Whenever the Management Committee shall vote to proceed with the development of a proposed Incremental Expansion as provided in Section 4.8.3, the Management Committee shall cause to be prepared and filed on behalf of the Partnership appropriate applications for Additional Necessary Regulatory Approvals. Each Partner shall make a cash Capital Contribution to the Partnership, as provided in Section 5.3, in an amount equal to its Percentage Interest of that portion, if any, of the Estimated

Cost of an Incremental Expansion relating to the preparation and prosecution of the application(s) for Additional Necessary Regulatory Approvals and the acquisition of the Financing Commitments determined from time to time by the Management Committee as being required to be paid from Capital Contributions made by the Partners prior to the Additional Commitment Date relating thereto.

5.2.2 After any Additional Commitment Date relating to an Incremental Expansion approved pursuant to Section 4.9, each Partner shall make a cash Capital Contribution to the Partnership, as provided in Section 5.3, in an amount, if any, equal to its Percentage Interest of the Estimated Cost of an Incremental Expansion, less (a) any amount relating to such Incremental Expansion previously contributed by such Partner to the Cost of an Incremental Expansion, (b) its Percentage Interest of the amount committed under the Financing Commitments, if any, relating to such Incremental Expansion and (c) its Percentage Interest of the amount, if any, the Management Committee may determine from time to time is available from the Partnership to finance such Incremental Expansion.

5.2.3 In the event that, at any time or times, the Management Committee determines, by the applicable vote provided for in Section 9.2, that the Partnership requires additional capital for operations (other than the capital provided for under Sections 5.2.1 and 5.2.2), each Partner shall, as provided in Section 5.3, contribute to the capital of the Partnership an amount equal to its Percentage Interest multiplied by the aggregate amount of Capital Contributions determined to be required for such purpose by the Management Committee. In the event that the Management Committee approves the operating or capital budget for the Partnership for any year pursuant to Section 9.2.6(b) and the Available Cash as of the end of a fiscal quarter, together with the Partnership’s anticipated net cash flow for the following fiscal quarter, is insufficient to fund the portion of such operating or capital budget allocable to such following fiscal quarter, then each Representative on the Management Committee shall vote to approve a capital call equal to the anticipated cash shortfall for such following quarter.

5.2.4 If the Operator determines that additional capital is required in order to avoid material imminent violations of law or to cure existing material violations of law, or to prevent or cure a material imminent risk to the health or safety of workers at the Facilities or to the health or safety of the community in which the Facilities is located, then, within fifteen (15) days after the Partnership receives notice from the Operator indicating that the Operator has made such determination and including the Operator’s estimate of the cost of the work required to prevent or cure such risk or violation, each Representative on the Management Committee shall vote to approve a capital call equal to such estimated cost.

5.3 Payment Of Capital Contributions.

5.3.1 The Management Committee shall issue or cause to be issued a written request to each Partner for payment of each installment of Capital Contributions to be made in accordance with Section 5.2, at such times and in such amounts (a) in the case of Capital Contributions to be made in accordance with Section 5.2.2 as shall be consistent with the schedule of Capital Contributions contained in the acquisition or construction fund schedule most recently approved by the Management Committee (by Majority Vote or Super-Majority Vote, as applicable) as provided in this Agreement, subject only to such variations in timing of such payments as may be necessitated by the cash requirements of the Partnership, and (b) in the case of Capital Contributions to be made in accordance with Sections 5.2.1, 5.2.3 and 5.2.4, as the Management Committee shall approve (by Majority Vote or Super-Majority Vote, as applicable) as provided in this Agreement. All Capital Contributions received by the Partnership pursuant to this Section 5.3, whether received prior to, on or after the date specified in Section 5.3.2(d), shall be credited to the respective Partner’s Capital Account as of such specified date. All Capital Contributions received from a Partner after the date specified in Section 5.3.2(d) shall be accompanied by interest on such overdue amounts, which interest shall be payable to the Partnership and shall accrue from and after such specified date at a rate equal to the lesser of (x) 2% over the per annum rate of interest established from time to time by XX Xxxxxx Xxxxx Bank, NA at its principal office in New York, NY, as its prime rate, or (y) the maximum interest rate allowed for this purpose pursuant to the laws of the State of New York. Any such interest paid with respect to a Capital Contribution shall be credited to the respective Capital Accounts of all the Partners, on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests as of the date such payment is made to the Partnership after giving effect to the payment of the Capital Contribution with respect to which such interest accrued.

5.3.2 Each written request issued pursuant to Section 5.3.1 shall contain the following information:

(a) The total amount of Capital Contributions requested from all Partners;

(b) The amount of Capital Contribution requested from the Partner to whom the request is addressed, such amount to be in accordance with the Percentage Interest of such Partner;

(c) The purpose for which the funds are to be applied in such reasonable detail as the Management Committee shall direct; and

(d) The date on which payments of the Capital Contribution shall be made (which date shall not be less than 30 days, nor more than 90 days, following the date the request is given except in the case of a capital call pursuant to Section 5.2.4, in which case the date may be

Such shorter time as the Management Committee deems reasonably appropriate under the circumstances but in no event less than seven (7) days following the date the request is given) and the method of payment, provided that such date and method shall be the same for each of the Partners.

5.3.3 Each Partner agrees that it shall make payments of its respective Capital Contributions in accordance with requests issued pursuant to Sections 5.3.1 and 5.3.2.

5.3.4 Default Provisions.

(a) In the event a Partner shall default in the performance of any of its obligations to make any Capital Contribution to the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, it shall become a Defaulting Partner hereunder. In the event such default shall continue uncured for a period of 30 days after the giving of notice to all of the Partners of such default by the Partnership or by any of the Partners other than the Defaulting Partner (each, a “Non-Defaulting Partner”) or for such extended cure period (an “Extended Cure Period”) as may be approved by affirmative vote of members of the Management Committee representing more than 50% of the total Percentage Interests of the Partners other than the Defaulting Partner and its Affiliates, then such Defaulting Partner shall be deemed to have temporarily withdrawn from the Partnership effective as of the 31st day after such notice or the day after expiration of the extended cure period, as the case may be, unless and until: (i) such default shall be cured as provided in Section 5.3.4(c), (ii) such Defaulting Partner has had its Percentage Interest in the Partnership diluted pursuant to Section 5.5.3(a), (iii) a Partner Loan which may have been made to such Defaulting Partner pursuant to Section 5.5.3(b) has been fully repaid, or (iv) such Defaulting Partner shall have had its interest in the Partnership purchased by one or more Non- Defaulting Partners pursuant to Section 5.5.3(c). During the period the Defaulting Partner is deemed to have temporarily withdrawn from the Partnership, no distributions shall be made under Section 7 to the Defaulting Partner. Notwithstanding the above, the foregoing distributions otherwise payable to a Defaulting Partner shall be retained by the Partnership until such time as (x) the Defaulting Partner is no longer treated as having temporarily withdrawn from the Partnership pursuant to this Section 5.3.4(a) (other than clause (iv) above), at which time the funds so retained shall be (1) distributed in their entirety to the Defaulting Partner if the period of its temporary withdrawal terminated as provided in clauses (i) or (iii) above, or (2) if the period of its temporary withdrawal terminated as provided in clause (ii) above, distributed to the Defaulting Partner in an amount equal to the product of (A) the amount of the retained distribution times (B) a fraction, the

numerator of which is its Percentage Interest as diluted and re-determined pursuant to Section 5.5.3(a) and the denominator of which is its Percentage Interest prior to such dilution and redetermination, and the remaining amount of the retained distributions shall be paid to the Non-Defaulting Partners in proportion to their relative Percentage Interests as re-determined pursuant to Section 5.5.3(a), or (y) the Defaulting Partner has permanently become a Withdrawn Partner pursuant to Section 12.3 of this Agreement or if the period of its temporary withdrawal terminated as provided in clause (iv) above, at which time the funds so retained shall remain Partnership property.

(b) After the receipt of a notice of default pursuant to Section 5.3.4(a) and until the later of (i) the date on which such default is cured as provided in Section 5.3.4(c) of this Agreement or such Defaulting Partner is no longer treated as having temporarily withdrawn from the Partnership pursuant to Section 5.3.4(a), as applicable, and (ii) six (6) months after receipt of the last notice of default pursuant to Section 5.3.4(a) in the event the Defaulting Partner has defaulted in the performance of any of its obligations to make any Capital Contributions to the Partnership on more than one occasion over a rolling 12 month period (provided that past defaults of a Defaulting Partner shall not apply to a third party transferee of such Defaulting Partner’s Interest), (A) the Representatives of such Defaulting Party shall not have any vote in matters to be acted upon by the Management Committee other than Retained Voting Rights, and the Percentage Interest of such Defaulting Partner shall not be considered in determining the total Percentage Interests of the Partners for the purpose of any vote of the Management Committee other than Retained Voting Rights, and (B) the Defaulting Partner shall continue to be obligated to make all Capital Contributions approved or required to be made pursuant to the terms hereof and based on its Percentage Interest at the time of default.

(c) A Partner shall cease being a Defaulting Partner, if it fulfills its obligations to make all payments then due under this Section 5.3 prior to the end of the thirty (30) day period for cure (or, if applicable, prior to the end of the Extended Cure Period) as provided in Section 5.3.4(a). If a Defaulting Partner seeks to cure a default after such thirty (30) day period (or, if applicable, after the end of the Extended Cure Period), such cure shall not be deemed effective to cure the default in question if the Management Committee has given a Section 5.5.3(a) Notice or a Partner has given a Section 5.5.3(c) Notice, unless such cure is accepted by the affirmative vote of members of the Management Committee representing more than 50% of the total Percentage Interests of the Partners other than the Defaulting Partner and its Affiliates.

5.4 Voluntary Contributions. No Partner shall make any Capital Contributions to the Partnership except pursuant to this Section 5.

5.5 Effect of Permanent or Temporary Withdrawal.

5.5.1 Consequences of Permanent Withdrawal.

(a) A Withdrawn Partner shall be entitled to receive payment from the Partnership, at a time or times when the Management Committee determines in good faith that such payment may be made without undue hardship to the Partnership or any Partner, of an amount equal to its positive Capital Account balance on the date of withdrawal (increased by the amount of any liability paid by such Withdrawn Partner after the date of withdrawal pursuant to Section 5.5.2), payable either in a lump sum or in installments as determined by the Management Committee, in its sole discretion. To the extent that the Management Committee does not determine to make such a payment, a Withdrawn Partner shall be entitled only to such amounts as may be distributed pursuant to Section 12.5. From and after the date of its withdrawal, the former Capital Account balance of such a Withdrawn Partner shall be recorded as a “Special Contingent Obligation” of the Partnership as provided in Section 12.5.1, and not as a Partner’s Capital Account.

(b) The rights of a Withdrawn Partner set forth in Section 5.5.1(a) shall (I) be subordinate to the rights of any other creditor of the Partnership, (2) not impair in any way the rights of continuing Partners to receive distributions pursuant to Section 7, (3) not include any right on the part of the Withdrawn Partner to receive any interest or other amounts with respect thereto, (4) not be a personal obligation of any Partner and (5) be paid as provided for in Section 12.5 in the event of dissolution.

5.5.2 Further Effect of Permanent Withdrawal. A Withdrawn Partner which has withdrawn from the Partnership pursuant to Section 12.3 or in contravention of this Agreement shall have only those rights specifically set forth in this Agreement, such Partner’s status as a Partner shall automatically terminate, and shall not have any vote in matters to be acted upon by the Management Committee and the Percentage Interest of such Partner shall not be considered in determining the total Percentage Interests of the Partners for the purpose of any vote of the Management Committee. Except as provided in Sections 12.2.3 and 12.6, withdrawal by one or more General Partners as described in the preceding sentence shall not effect a dissolution of the Partnership. A Withdrawn Partner shall remain obligated for all liabilities attributable to its respective interest in the Partnership accruing prior to the date of its withdrawal, including any such liabilities maturing after such withdrawal but originating from actions taken prior thereto.

5.5.3 Additional Remedies.

(a) In the event any Partner is deemed to have temporarily withdrawn from the Partnership pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.3.4 of this Agreement, if members of the Management Committee representing more than 50% of the total Percentage Interests of the Partners other than the Defaulting Partner and its Affiliates determines that an amount equal to the whole or any portion of the amount of Capital Contributions which such Partner failed to pay when due (the “Defaulted Contribution”) should be contributed to the Partnership by the Non-Defaulting Partners in order to meet the cash needs of the Partnership, it shall promptly provide written notice (a “Section 5.5.3(a) Notice”) of such determination to each Non-Defaulting Partner, which Section 5.5.3(a) Notice shall state the amount of the Defaulted Contribution. Each Non-Defaulting Partner shall have the right to elect (by written notice to the other remaining Partners within ten days of the date of the Section 5.5.3(a) Notice from the Management Committee) to contribute (i) it’s pro rata share of such Defaulted Contribution calculated as the percentage determined by dividing the Percentage Interest of such Non-Defaulting Partner by the sum of the Percentage Interests of all Non-Defaulting Partners, or (ii) a portion of such Defaulted Contribution determined on any other basis unanimously approved by the Partners other than the Defaulting Partner. In the event the Non-Defaulting Partners, as a whole, elect to contribute an amount less than I 00% of the Defaulted Contribution (the “Unelected Percentage”), the Partnership may use cash on hand or any other available source of funds to meet its obligations associated with the Unelected Percentage. Nothing herein shall be construed as preventing admission of a new Partner or Partners to the Partnership in accordance with Section 11 in order to meet the cash needs of the Partnership resulting from the withdrawal of a Partner or Partners. To the extent that any Partner contributes any portion of a Capital Contribution pursuant to this Section 5.5.3, the Percentage Interests of the Partners shall be adjusted to reflect such Capital Contributions. In addition, in the event the Non-Defaulting Partners have not elected and exercised any of the remedies set forth in this Section 5.5.3(a) within 30 days after the date on which the Defaulting Partner is deemed to have temporarily withdrawn from the Partnership, the Percentage Interests of the Partners shall be adjusted to reflect the failure of the Defaulting Partner to make its Capital Contribution and the satisfaction by the Non-Defaulting Partners of their obligation to make their Capital Contributions. For purposes of Section 6 and Section 7 of this Agreement, the Percentage Interests as re-determined pursuant to this Section 5.5.3(a) shall be effective as of the first day of the fiscal quarter during which the Defaulting Partner defaulted With respect to its obligation to make its Capital Contribution.

(b) In the event any Partner shall be deemed to have temporarily withdrawn from the Partnership pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.3.4 of this Agreement, in lieu of calling for Capital Contributions to fund a Defaulted Contribution as set forth in Section 5.5.3(a), the Management Committee, by members representing more than 50% of the total Percentage Interests of the Partners other than the Defaulting Partner and its Affiliates, may elect to call for the Defaulted Contribution to be funded by loans (“Partner Loans”) from the Non-Defaulting Partners. The amount, timing and procedure for Partner Loans, and each Partner’s share of such Partner Loans, shall be the same as for Capital Contributions made pursuant to Section 5.5.3(a) or as otherwise unanimously approved by the Partners other than the Defaulting Partner. If the Management Committee calls for Partner Loans to fund a Defaulted Contribution, then: (i) any sum thus advanced by a Partner shall be deemed to be a loan from such Partner to the Defaulting Partner and a contribution of such sum to the Partnership by the Defaulting Partner (but such contribution shall not be deemed to cure the default by the Defaulting Partner); (ii) the principal balance of such loan and all accrued unpaid interest thereon shall be, unless earlier prepaid by the Defaulting Partner, due and payable in whole within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor has been given to the Defaulting Partner (and to each other Partner) by the Management Committee or by any Non-Defaulting Partner which made such advance; (iii) each Partner Loan shall bear interest at the lesser of (A) 11% over LIBOR and the (B) maximum amount permitted by law, from the date that the Partner Loan was made until the date that such Loan, together with all interest accrued thereon, is repaid to the Non-Defaulting Partner which made such advance; (iv) an amount equal to the distributions from the Partnership that would otherwise be made to the Defaulting Partner (whether before or after dissolution of the Partnership) shall be deemed to be paid to the Defaulting Partner for purposes of adjusting its Capital Account but shall, instead, be paid to the Non-Defaulting Partners which made such Partner Loans until the Partner Loans and all interest accrued thereon have been repaid in full (with all such payments being applied first to interest earned and unpaid and then to principal); and (v) any Non-Defaulting Partner who made a Partner Loan shall have the right, in addition to the other rights and remedies granted to it pursuant to this Agreement or available to it at law or in equity, to take such action (including, without limitation, the filing of a lawsuit) as any such Non-Defaulting Partner deems appropriate to obtain payment by the Defaulting Partner of the principal balance of such loan and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the cost and expense (including attorneys’ fees) of the Defaulting Partner.

(c) In the event any Partner is deemed to have temporarily withdrawn from the Partnership pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.3.4 of this Agreement, then any Non-Defaulting Partner may give notice (a “Section 5.5.3(c) Notice”) to the Management Committee that it desires to purchase I 00% of the Interest of the Defaulting Partner. Within sixty (60) days after the date of such Section 5.5.3(c) Notice, the Management Committee shall give notice (the “Default Purchase Notice”) to the Defaulting Partner and to each other Non-Defaulting Partner of such proposed purchase. Such Default Purchase Notice shall include the Management Committee’s good faith Majority Vote determination of the fair market value of the Partnership taking into account, among other things, the prices paid for other comparable pipelines and shall indicate an amount (the “Default Purchase Price”) equal to the product of (i) the Management Committee’s good faith determination of the fair market value of the Partnership as determined above, multiplied by (ii) 75%, multiplied by (iii) the Percentage Interest of the Defaulting Partner. Within 15 calendar days after delivery of the Default Purchase Notice, each Non-Defaulting Party electing to purchase such Interest shall so notify the Management Committee and the other Partners in writing, and if more than one Non-Defaulting Partner so elects, then each such Non-Defaulting Partner shall be deemed to have elected to purchase such Non-Defaulting Partner’s pro rata share of the Interest of the Defaulting Partner, calculated as the percentage determined by dividing the Percentage Interest of such Non-Defaulting Partner by the sum of the Percentage Interests of all Non-Defaulting Partners electing to purchase the Interest of the Defaulting Partner. The closing on all such purchases shall occur thereafter at the principal office of the Partnership during normal business hours on a date that is reasonably scheduled in a written notice delivered by the Partnership to each purchaser, and shall be deemed effective as of 12:00:01 a.m. on such date. At the closing the Defaulting Partner shall transfer its entire Partnership Interest to the applicable purchasers in accordance with their purchase elections. Each such transfer shall be made free and clear of all liens and other encumbrances. In exchange, each purchaser shall deliver such purchaser’s pro rata portion of the Default Purchase Price (based on the extent or amount of the Interest purchased by such purchaser) to the Defaulting Partner; provided, however, if the Defaulting Partner has any unpaid obligations due and owing to the Partnership or any unpaid Partner Loans outstanding, such obligations shall be satisfied at or prior to closing.

6. Allocation of Profits and Losses.

6.1 Profits and Losses.

After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 6.2, all Profits and Losses from operations for each fiscal year (or part thereof) shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests; provided that no Losses shall be allocated to any Partner that holds only a Limited Partnership interest to the extent that such Losses would result in that Limited Partner having an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. To the extent Losses allocated to a Partner holding only a Limited Partner interest would cause such Partner to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any fiscal year, the Losses will be reallocated to Partners holding General Partner interests in proportion to their relative Percentage Interests as General Partner. If any General Partner receives an allocation of Losses otherwise allocable to a Limited Partner in accordance with this Section 6, such General Partner shall be allocated Profits in subsequent fiscal years necessary to reverse the effect of such allocation of Losses. Such allocation of Profits (if any) shall be made before any other Profit allocations under this Section 6.

6.2 Special Allocations.

6.2.1 Partnership Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain during any taxable year, each Partner shall be allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6), (g)(2) and U)(2)(i). For purposes of this Section 6.2, each Partner’s Capital Account shall be determined, and the allocation of income or gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 6.2.1 with respect to such taxable year. This Section 6.2.1 is intended to comply with the partner minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

6.2.2 Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement (other than Section 6.2.1 above), if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any taxable year, any Partner with a share of Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain at the beginning of such taxable year shall be allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and Gl(2)(ii). For purposes of this Section 6.2, each Partner’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income and gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 6, other than Section 6.2.1, with respect to such taxable

year. This Section 6.2.2 is intended to comply with the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

6.2.3 Qualified Income Offset. Except as provided in Section 6.2.1 and Section 6.2.2 above, in the event any Person holding only a Limited Partner Interest unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by such Treasury Regulation, its Adjusted Capital Account Deficit created by such adjustment, allocation or distribution as quickly as possible unless such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit balance is otherwise eliminated pursuant to Section 6.2.1 or Section 6.2.2. This Section 6.2.3 is intended to constitute a qualified income offset described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

6.2.4 Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Partner has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any fiscal year, such Partner shall be allocated items of Partnership gross income and gain in the amount of such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as possible; provided, an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.2.4 shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided in Section 6.2 (other than Section 6.2.3) have been tentatively made as if Section 6.2.3 and this Section 6.2.4 were not in this Agreement.

6.2.5 Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable year shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests.

6.2.6 Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable year shall be allocated 100% to the Partner that bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). If more than one Partner bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt, Partner Nonrecourse Deductions attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Partners in accordance with the ratios in which They share such Economic Risk of Loss. This. Section 6.2.6 is intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

6.2.7 To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset, pursuant to Code Section 734(b) (including pursuant to Treasury

Regulations Section 1.734-2(b)(l)) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Partner in complete liquidation of such Partner’s interest in the Partnership, the amount of such adjustment to Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Partners in accordance with their interests in the Partnership in the event Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Partner to whom such distribution was made in the event Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)( 4) applies.

6.3 Regulatory Allocations. The allocations set forth in Section 6.2 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Partners that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Partnership income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 6.3. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), but subject to the Code and the Treasury Regulations, the Tax Matters Partner shall make such offsetting special allocations of Partnership income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Partner’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Partner would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of this Agreement. In making such determination, the Tax Matters Partner shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made.

6.4 Income Tax Allocations.

6.4.1 Except as provided in this Section 6.4, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Partnership for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner as such items are allocated for book purposes under Section 6.1, Section 6.2, and Section 6.3.

6.4.2 In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the Partnership shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Partners so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Partnership for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value at the time of its contribution to the Partnership. If the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership property is adjusted in accordance with subparagraph (ii) or (iv) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, then subsequent allocations of

Income, gain, loss and deduction shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such property for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value as provided in Code Section 704(c) and the related Treasury Regulations. For purposes of such allocations, the Partnership shall elect the remedial allocation method described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(d).

The affirmative vote of members of the Management Committee representing more than 50% of the total Percentage Interests of the Partners other than the Transferring Partner and its Affiliates, not to be unreasonably withheld, that the transfer of the Interest will not adversely affect the financial and operating integrity of the Partnership shall also be required unless the long-term senior unsecured non-credit enhanced debt securities of the Offeror, or of any guarantor of the Offeror’s obligations under the Partnership Agreement, are rated BBB- or better by Standard & Poor’s or are rated Baa3 or better

by Xxxxx’x Investors Services. Forthwith after acceptance of an offer from an Offeror to purchase the Interest (conditioned on the satisfaction of the requirements of this Section), the Transferring Partner shall give notice in writing thereof to all of the other Partners enclosing a true copy of the offer. If the offer includes non-cash consideration for the transferred Interest, such notice shall set forth the Transferring Partner’s reasonable determination of the cash equivalent value of such non-cash consideration and shall indicate in reasonable detail the basis for such calculation. If the offer contemplates an Indirect Transfer (as defined below), such notice shall set forth the Transferring Partner’s reasonable determination of the portion of the offered price attributable to the Transferring Partner’s Interest in the Partnership (the “Interest Indirect Transfer Price”) and shall indicate in reasonable detail the basis for such calculation. The other Partners shall have a right of first refusal, exercisable within 30 days of receipt of such notice, to purchase the Interest on the same terms and conditions as such offer (or, if all of the other Partners so elect, on the basis of the cash equivalent value of such offer) on a pro rata basis (determined by dividing each such Partner’s Percentage Interest by the sum of the Percentage Interests of all the Partners other than the Transferring Partner). The Partners which elect in the first election round to purchase any portion of their respective pro rata shares of the Interest may allocate the purchase of the Interest among such Partners on a basis unanimously agreed to by such Partners, provided that such Partners collectively agree to purchase I 00% of the Interest. If any such Partner does not elect to purchase its full pro rata share of the Interest in such election round, the Partners which elected to purchase their respective full pro rata shares in the election round (“fully-electing Partners”) shall have the right to elect to purchase the remaining portion of the Interest on a pro rata basis (determined by dividing each such fully electing Partner’s Percentage Interest by the sum of the Percentage Interests of all such fully-electing Partners) which right must be exercised within five days after the expiration of the election round. If the Partners after compliance with the procedures specified above in this Section II. I.I do not elect to purchase 100% of the Interest and if the Management Committee has given its approval as specified in this Section 11.1.1, then the Transferring Partner shall thereafter be free to complete the transfer of 100% of the Interest to the Offeror; provided, however, that such transfer may not be effectuated unless it is strictly in accordance with the terms and conditions of the offer of which the other Partners were previously given notice as provided herein and, in compliance with any applicable Federal or state registration requirements or exemption(s) therefrom. If the transfer of the Interest to the Offeror is not consummated within 90 days after the expiration of the last election round referred to above, no transfer by the Transferring Partner to the Offeror or any other Person may be made without again complying with this Section 11.1.1. A transfer of any or all of the ownership of a Partner, or a transfer of any or all of the ownership of a

direct or indirect Parent of a Partner the majority of the value of whose assets are represented by the value of its indirect ownership interest in the Partnership, shall be deemed to be a transfer (an “Indirect Transfer”) of all of such Partner’s interest in the Partnership (including the indebtedness or equity thereof) for purposes of this Section 11.1.1 and shall be subject to the rights of first refusal provided for herein. For the purposes of the rights of first refusal provided for herein, in the case of any such Indirect Transfer, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Partner whose interest is subject to such Indirect Transfer shall be deemed to be the “Transferring Partner,” the interest in the Partnership owned by such Partner shall be deemed to be the “Interest” being transferred and the Interest Indirect Transfer Price shall be deemed to be the applicable offer for the purposes hereof and for the rights of first refusal provided for herein to the same extent as if such offer had been made directly for such Partner’s interest in the Partnership.

11.1.2 Subject to Section 11.4, additional Persons may become parties to this Agreement and Additional Partners of the Partnership under this Section 11 only upon the following conditions:

(a) Such admission shall be in compliance with any agreements with security holders of the Partnership or others that may require the consent of such security holders or other parties to the admission of Additional Partners;

(b) Such admission shall be in compliance with all applicable requirements of law, including the Natural Gas Act, the applicable rules and regulations of the FERC and, any applicable Federal or state securities laws, rules and regulations; and

(c) Such Person’s admission shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Management Committee to the extent required by Section 11.1.1.

11.1.3 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of Section 11.1.1 and 11.1.2(c) shall not be applicable to transfers, direct or indirect, between or among Affiliates.

11.2 Legend On Evidences Of Indebtedness Held By Partners. As long as this Agreement shall remain in effect, all evidences of indebtedness of the Partnership to any of the Partners or their Affiliates shall bear an appropriate legend to indicate that it is held subject to, and may be assigned or transferred only in accordance with, the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

11.3 Transfers By Partners. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11 (other than the terms of Sections 11.1.2(a) and J:hl), a Partner may

Undertake without the consent of the Management Committee or any other Partner, and the terms of Section 11. U and 11.1.2(c) shall be inapplicable to:

11.3.1 The transfer by any Partner of all or any part of its right, title and interest in the Partnership (including indebtedness thereof) and in this Agreement to an Affiliate of the transferor, provided that the terms of Sections 11.1.2(a) and .(hl are satisfied and such Affiliate assumes by operation of law or express agreement with the Partnership in accordance with the terms hereof or otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Management Committee all of the obligations of the transferor under this Agreement to the extent of the interest transferred.

11.3.2 The transfer (by operation of law or otherwise) by any Partner of all of its right, title and interest in the Partnership (including indebtedness thereof) and in this Agreement, in connection with a sale of all or substantially all of the equity ownership interests or assets of a direct or indirect Parent of such Partner, or a merger of such direct or indirect Parent into or with another Person, in either case in a transaction in which a majority of the value of the assets included in such transaction are unrelated to the Partnership.

11.3.3 An assignment, pledge or other transfer creating a security interest (and any transfer made in foreclosure or other enforcement of such security interest) in all or any portion of a Partner’s right, title or interest in the Partnership and in this Agreement, under any mortgage, indenture, deed of trust or security agreement (the “Assigned Interest”) created by any Partner; provided, however, that (a) the assignee, pledgee, mortgagee, trustee or secured party shall hold the same subject to all of the terms of this Agreement; (b) such assignee, pledgee, mortgagee, trustee or secured party, or any transferee of such Assigned Interest (the “Secured Party”), shall not become a substitute Partner unless the terms of Sections 11.1.2(a) and 11.1.2(b) are satisfied; and (c) unless and until such Secured Party becomes a substitute Partner in accordance with the foregoing clause (b), it shall not have any voice in the management of the Partnership as a result of any such transfer and shall have no right to enforce any provision of this Agreement against any Partner.

11.4 Effect of Permitted Transfers. No sale, assignment, pledge or other transfer (including a transfer creating a security interest) pursuant to this Section 11 shall give rise to a right in any Partner or Partners to dissolve the Partnership. Except as provided in this Section 11.4, no such sale, assignment, pledge or other transfer shall give rise to a right in any transferee to become a Partner in the Partnership Upon any direct transfer permitted by Section 11.1.1, 11.3.1 or 11.3.2, as applicable, upon satisfaction of the terms thereof and the applicable conditions of Section 11.1.2, the transferee shall be automatically admitted as a Partner in substitution for, or in the case of a partial transfer, in addition to, the transferor Partner, upon execution of a counterpart of this Agreement. In the event of such a

Transfer, the Percentage Interests of the transferee and transferor Partners shall be modified in accordance with Section 5.1.

11.5 Effect of Prohibited Transfers. Any transfer of an interest in the Partnership by a Partner in violation of the terms of this Agreement shall be void and shall not be recognized by the Partnership. Any such transfer shall not cause a dissolution of the Partnership but shall result in the forfeiture of the transferor Partner’s right to participate in the management of the Partnership, and the voting rights and requirements under this Agreement shall be appropriately modified; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to limit any right or remedies that the Partnership or any other Partner may have against such transferor Partner.

11.6 Tax Election. In the event that the interest of a Partner is transferred with the consent of the Management Committee, or otherwise as permitted by this Section 11, the Partnership will make an election pursuant to Code Section.754.

11.7 Pledge Of Interest. Except as permitted by the provisions of Section 11.3.3, no Partner shall be permitted to pledge or otherwise grant a security interest in and to its Interest.

11.8 General Partner as a Limited Partner. A General Partner may also be a Limited Partner to the extent that it becomes the transferee of all or part of the Percentage Interest previously held by a Limited Partner. A Partner which is both a General Partner and a Limited Partner shall have the rights and powers, and shall be subject to the restrictions and liabilities, of a General Partner under this Agreement and shall, to the extent of the Percentage Interest held by such Partner as a Limited Partner, have the rights and powers, and shall be subject to the restrictions, of a Limited Partner under this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event a General Partner owns a Percentage Interest in the Partnership as a General Partner and as a Limited Partner, the obligation of such Partner to the Partners and/or the Partnership, whether pursuant to its obligations to make Capital Contributions, indemnification or contribution available under applicable law, shall be measured by such Partner’s combined Percentage Interests in the Partnership as a General and a Limited Partner, and not merely by its General Partner Percentage Interest.

12. Termination And Right Of Withdrawal.

12.1 Term Of Partnership; Voluntary Dissolution. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 12.2, the Partnership and this Agreement shall continue in existence until October 31, 2089 and from year to year thereafter; provided, however, that a Partner may elect to dissolve the Partnership and terminate this Agreement as of October 31, 2089 or as of the end of any succeeding extended annual period by giving the other Partners written notice of such election not less than one year prior to the date such dissolution is to take effect.

12.2 Automatic Dissolution. The Partnership shall be automatically and without notice dissolved upon the happening of any of the following events:

12.2.1 The sale or abandonment of all or substantially all of the Partnership’s business and assets; provided, however, that any such sale or abandonment may only be made pursuant to a Super-Majority Vote of the Management Committee;

12.2.3 Any event which, under the Partnership Act or any other applicable law, rule or regulation requires or results in dissolution of the Partnership.

12.3 Automatic Withdrawal. A Partner, upon the happening of any of the following events, shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the Partnership and be entitled to receive payment only as specified in Section 5.5 of this Agreement:

12.3.1 The entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of a decree or order for relief, un-stayed on appeal or otherwise and in effect for 90 days, in respect of such Partner in an involuntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, or any such order adjudicating such Partner as bankrupt or insolvent under any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation law;

12.3.2 The entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of a decree or order appointing a receiver, custodian, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrate or other similar official of such Partner or of any substantial part of the property of such Partner, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order un-stayed on appeal or otherwise and in effect for 90 days, or the commencement by such Partner of a voluntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, or under any other bankruptcy or insolvency law, seeking reorganization, liquidation, arrangement, adjustment or composition of such Partner under the bankruptcy laws or any similar statute;

12.3.5 Any event (other than an event of the nature specified in Section 12.2.2) which shall make it unlawful (a) in the case of a General Partner, for that General Partner to carry on the business of the Partnership in the form of a partnership, or (b) in the case of a Limited Partner, for that Limited Partner to continue to hold an interest in the Partnership.

12.4 Other Withdrawals. Except as provided in Section 12.3 of this Agreement, or upon the admission of a substitute Partner in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.4, no Partner shall be entitled to withdraw from the Partnership.

12.5 Winding Up And Liquidation. After the Partnership shall be dissolved pursuant to the provisions of Sections 12.1 or 12.2, the Management Committee shall continue to exercise its powers under this Agreement for the purpose of winding up the business of the Partnership and liquidating its assets in an orderly manner, but the Partnership shall engage in no new business during the period of such winding up.

12.5.1 The assets of the Partnership remaining after the payment, or provision for payment, of all the liabilities of the Partnership (other than any Special Contingent Obligations as hereinafter defined) shall first be paid in satisfaction of Special Contingent Obligations to any applicable Withdrawn Partners, and any remaining assets of the Partnership shall be distributed to the Partners in accordance with their positive Capital Account balances after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all periods.

If any General Partner has a deficit balance in its Capital Account following the distributions pursuant to this Section 12.5.1, as determined after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the tax year during which the Partnership terminates other than those made as a result of contributions pursuant to this sentence, such General Partner shall contribute to the Partnership cash equal to the amount of such deficit balance by the end of such tax year, or 90 days after the date of such liquidation, whichever occurs later, and such cash

shall be paid to creditors of the Partnership, if any, or distributed to the other Partners in accordance with the preceding paragraph of this Section 12.5.1.

12.5.2 No termination or dissolution of the Partnership shall relieve a Partner from any obligation accruing or accrued to the date of such termination or dissolution; provided, however, that a Limited Partner’s liabilities for Partnership obligations shall be solely as set forth in Section 10.2.

12.6 Continuance Of Partnership. Except as provided in Sections 12.1 and 12.2, it is understood and agreed by each of the Partners that the relationship of partnership among them is intended to continue without interruption until such relationship is either specifically dissolved by Super-Majority Vote of the Management Committee or by the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 12.1 or 12.2 as an event of dissolution, and each Partner waives and releases, to the extent permitted by Jaw, its right to dissolve or obtain dissolution of the Partnership in any other manner or for any other reason. In this connection, the Partners agree and intend that the Partnership shall not be dissolved by the admission of a new Partner pursuant to Section 11.4 or by the withdrawal of one or more General Partners, provided that there is at least one remaining General Partner in the Partnership. If, notwithstanding the foregoing understanding, agreements and intentions of the Partners, the Partnership may at any time or from time to time be deemed by operation of Jaw and otherwise than pursuant to Section 12.1 or 12.2 to be dissolved (for example, upon the bankruptcy or withdrawal of a Partner), each of the Partners hereby covenants and agrees with the other Partners as follows:

12.6.1 The business and affairs of the Partnership shall continue without interruption and be carried out by a new partnership (the “Successor Partnership”);

12.6.4 Each of the Partners covenants and agrees to execute such further agreements, including (without limitation) notes, novation, and accommodations, as may be necessary to continue the business of the Partnership and to protect and perfect any lien or security interest granted by the Partnership;

12.6.5 Each of the Partners waives and releases, to the full extent it may lawfully do so, all rights to a winding up or liquidation of the business of the Partnership, notwithstanding that the dissolution of the Partnership may be

caused wrongfully or otherwise in contravention of this Agreement by such Partner or any other Partner, and further notwithstanding that, at the time of such dissolution, such Partner shall be, or be deemed to be or thereby become, a Withdrawn Partner pursuant to this Agreement; and

12.6.6 As used in this Section 12.6, the term “Partnership,” at any point in time, shall mean the Partnership originally formed pursuant to this Agreement or the Successor Partnership which at such time is continuing the business and affairs of the Partnership originally so formed.

13. General.

13.11 Section Numbers. Unless otherwise indicated, references to section numbers are to sections of this Agreement.

13.12 Confidentiality.

13.12.1 Except as hereinafter provided, the Partnership and each Partner shall treat as confidential, and not disclose to any third party (excluding Affiliates) not authorized by the Management Committee to receive confidential information, any information obtained either directly or indirectly from any other Partner pursuant to this Agreement and designated by such Partner as confidential, or other confidential information developed or acquired by the Management Committee, or by the Operator during performance of its obligations under the Operating Agreement on behalf of the Partnership, unless such confidential information (a) was already in the possession of the receiving Partner, or an Affiliate thereof; at the time it obtained such confidential information hereunder, (b) was or is published or otherwise is or becomes generally available to the public through no fault of such receiving Partner or its Affiliate, (c) was or is made available to such partner or its Affiliate without restriction by any Person or entity which is not bound by, and does not impose, an obligation of confidentiality or use with respect thereto or (d) was or is required to be disclosed by operation of law or regulation. Further, neither the Partnership nor any Partner shall (i) use any such confidential information (other than its own) for any purpose other than in connection with the activities of the Partnership pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) disclose, reveal or otherwise make any such confidential information (other than its own) available to any unauthorized third party without the prior written consent of the other Partners hereunder, unless such disclosure is required by operation of law or regulation. The Partners and the Management Committee shall establish and enforce reasonable procedures for the protection of confidential information and shall restrict disclosure of such information to as few as possible of the employees, officers, agents and Affiliates of each Partner and the Partnership, and only to those who need to know such information in connection with the purposes of the Partnership as set forth herein. Each Partner and the Management Committee shall take such reasonable and prudent steps and precautionary measures as are required to ensure compliance with this Section 13.12 by such of their employees, officers, agents, Affiliates and other Persons as shall be given access to such confidential information and shall be responsible for compliance by their employees, officers, agents and Affiliates. The obligations of the Partners and Withdrawn Partners

pursuant to this Section 13.12 shall survive the term of this Agreement for a period of five years. The Partners agree that no adequate remedy at law exists for a material breach or threatened material breach of any of the provisions of this Section 13.12, the continuation of which un-remedied will cause the injured Partner to suffer irreparable harm. Accordingly, the Partners agree that the injured party shall be entitled, in addition to other remedies which may be available to it, to immediate injunctive relief from any material breach of any of the provisions of this Section 13.12 and to specific performance of its rights hereunder, as well as to any other remedies available at law or in equity. The Operating Agreement shall include similar provisions for the protection of confidential information.

13.12.2 Notwithstanding the terms of Section 13.12.1, nothing contained in such Section 13.12.1 shall be construed to restrict a Partner or its Affiliate from disclosing information with respect to the Partnership or to such Partner’s or its Affiliate’s investment in the Partnership, (a) in the ordinary course of business pertaining to its investment in the Partnership, (b) to prospective transferees of such Partner’s or its Affiliate’s investment in the Partnership (provided that such transferees enter into a confidentiality agreement with such Partner or its Affiliate, as the case may be, on terms comparable in scope to those contained in this Section 13.12), (c) pursuant to such Partner’s or its Affiliate’s customary investor relations process or (d) in order to comply with any requirements of law or regulation; provided, however, the Partners hereby agree to notify each other in advance with respect to any disclosure of material non-public information pertaining to the Partnership or the Partnership’s financial or operational performance (other than information consistent with that set forth in the financial statements of the Partnership), that a Partner knows, or should reasonably be expected to know, would have a material adverse effect on another Partner or would trigger additional disclosures or compliance filings by another Partner.

13.12.3 In addition to the rights described in Section 8.8, a Partner shall have the right to cause the Partnership and its subsidiaries to reasonably cooperate with such Partner in connection with such Partner’s or its Affiliate’s compliance with any applicable financial reporting requirements of any governmental authority, including any filings that may be required by the Securities and Exchange Commission or under state or federal securities laws applicable to such Partner or its Affiliate. In connection therewith, such Partner shall have the right to cause the Partnership and its subsidiaries to (i) make available to such Partner, upon reasonable advance notice, all books and records and financial and other information in the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ possession or control that are reasonably required in order to prepare financial statements or financial information meeting the requirements of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act, along with any documentation reasonably related thereto required to complete any audit of such financial statements required by

Regulation S-X, and to cooperate with such Partner, and its representatives, including its independent auditors, in connection with any audit of any financial statements of such Partner.

13.13 Deadlocks and Dispute Resolution.

13.13.1 In the event of any Deadlock or Dispute, by notice to the other Representatives (a “Deadlock/Dispute Notice”), any Representative on the Management Committee may request that the Partners seek to resolve such Deadlock or Dispute including, if requested by such requesting Representative, a special meeting of the Management Committee to discuss and attempt to resolve such Deadlock or Dispute. The Partners and, if applicable, the Representatives on the Management Committee, shall diligently and in good faith attempt to resolve the matter in question within thirty (30) days of the date the Deadlock/Dispute Notice. is given (the “Initial Resolution Period”) including, if so requested, at a special meeting of the Management Committee at which they attend in person or by teleconference or video conference.

13.13.2 If the Deadlock or Dispute is not resolved within the Initial Resolution Period, any Representative or Partner may, upon written notice (a “2nd Deadlock/Dispute Notice”) to the other Partners or Representatives given within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Initial Resolution Period, request that the Deadlock or Dispute be elevated to senior executives of each Partner, which senior executives shall be at least the most senior executive of a business unit of a Partner (or a direct or indirect Parent company of such Partner) who shall have the authority from such Partner (or, as applicable, such Parent) to resolve the Deadlock or Dispute. These senior executives shall meet as promptly as possible, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the 2nd Deadlock/Dispute Notice is given, and shall use reasonable efforts to resolve the Deadlock or Dispute within thirty (30) days after such initial meeting.

13.13.3 If the Deadlock or Dispute relates to an operational or technical issue that is not resolved by the procedures described in Sections 13.3.1 or 13.3.2, then the Partners may, if they mutually agree to do so, submit the disagreement to an independent third party with relevant expertise for the issue in dispute, and may agree (a) on the procedures for presenting each Partner’s position with regard to the Deadlock or Dispute to such expert, (b) on the allocation of the costs and expenses associated with such expert and the resolution of the Deadlock or Dispute and (c) that the decision by such expert shall be binding and enforceable against the Partners. For clarification, all the Partners involved in any Deadlock or Dispute must mutually agree in advance to the submission of any Deadlock or Dispute to such third party and/or for any binding arbitration with respect thereto.

13.13.4 If the Deadlocked Decision is not resolved by the procedures described in Sections 13.3.1, 13.3.2 or 13.3.3, then the Partners shall be entitled to exercise any other remedies available to them under this Agreement or applicable law in order to resolve such Deadlock or Dispute.

13.13.5 For purposes of this Section 13.13, any resolution of a Deadlock or Dispute pursuant to Sections 13.3.1, 13.3.2 or, if so agreed by the Partners, 13.3.3(c), shall be binding on the Partnership and the Management Committee as if made by the Management Committee pursuant to Section 9.2. Each of the Representatives, executives and senior executives of the Partners who participate in the efforts to reach a resolution of any Deadlock or Dispute pursuant to this Section 13.13 shall undertake such efforts on a timely and diligent basis.

13.14 References To Money. All references in this Agreement to, and transactions hereunder in, money shall be to or in Dollars of the United States of America.

13.15 Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be deemed in contradiction with the laws of any jurisdiction in which it is to be performed or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be deemed null and void, but this Agreement shall remain in force in all other respects. Should any provision of this Agreement be or become ineffective because of changes in applicable laws or interpretations thereof, or should this Agreement fail to include a provision that is required as a matter of law, the validity of the other provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. If such circumstances arise, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith appropriate modifications to this Agreement to reflect those changes that are required by law.

13.16 Third Persons. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or to give any Person not a party hereto any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.
