Project Alamo – Execution Version

29

(iii) under Section 10.2(a), none of the MLP Indemnitees shall be entitled to assert any right to indemnification unless Qualified Claims for which indemnity is only provided under Section 10.2(a) shall in the aggregate exceed $4,383,000 and then only to the extent that all such Qualified Claims exceed said amount;

(iv) under Section 10.2(a), none of the MLP Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification for any amount in excess of $43,830,000; and

(v) Any indemnification or payment obligations of HOLDINGS under Section 10.2 resulting from HOLDINGS’ breach of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements, shall be limited to Losses that are attributable to the Subject Interests or to the transactions pursuant to which MLP acquires the Subject Interests under this Agreement.

(c) Any claim for indemnity under this Agreement made by a Party Indemnitee shall be in writing, be delivered in good faith prior to the expiration of the respective survival period under Section 10.3(b) (to the extent applicable), and specify in reasonable detail the specific nature of the claim for indemnification hereunder (“Claim Notice”). Any such claim that is described in a timely (if applicable) delivered Claim Notice shall survive with respect to the specific matter described therein.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall HOLDINGS be obligated under this Agreement to indemnify (or be otherwise liable hereunder in any way whatsoever to) any of the MLP Indemnitees with respect to a breach of any representation or warranty, if MLP had Knowledge thereof at Closing and failed to notify HOLDINGS of such breach prior to Closing.

Project Alamo – Execution Version

30

(b) If any Claim is asserted against or any Loss is sought to be collected from an Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness provide to the Indemnifying Party a Claim Notice. The failure to give any such Claim Notice shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Indemnified Party to indemnification hereunder unless the Indemnified Party has proceeded to contest, defend or settle such Claim or remedy such a Loss with respect to which it has failed to give a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party, but only to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby. Additionally, to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby, the failure to provide a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability for such Claims and Losses that it may have to the Indemnified Party, but only to the extent the liability for such Claims or Losses is directly attributable to such failure to provide the Claim Notice.

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from the personal delivery or receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party (i) whether or not it disputes the liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to the Claim or Loss, and in the event of a dispute, such dispute shall be resolved in the manner set forth in Section 11.8 hereof, (ii) in the case where Losses are asserted against or sought to be collected from an Indemnifying Party by the Indemnified Party, whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall at its own sole cost and expense remedy such Losses or (iii) in the case where Claims are asserted against or sought to be collected from an Indemnified Party, whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall at its own sole cost and expense defend the Indemnified Party against such Claim; provided however, that any Indemnified Party is hereby authorized prior to and during the Notice Period to file any motion, answer or other pleading that it shall deem necessary or appropriate to protect its interests or those of the Indemnifying Party (and of which it shall have given notice and opportunity to comment to the Indemnifying Party) and not prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party does not give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to contest and defend any such Claim described in Section 10.4(c)(iii) within the Notice Period, then the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the result obtained with respect thereto by the Indemnified Party and shall be responsible for all costs incurred in connection therewith.

(e) If the Indemnifying Party is obligated to defend and indemnify the Indemnified Party, and the Parties have a conflict of interest with respect to any such Claim, then the Indemnified Party may, in its sole discretion, separately and independently contest and defend such Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the result obtained with respect thereto by the Indemnified Party and shall be responsible for all costs incurred in connection therewith.

(f) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that it shall defend the Indemnified Party against a Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend all appropriate Proceedings, and with counsel of its own choosing (but reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party) and such Proceedings shall be promptly settled (subject to obtaining a full and complete release of all Indemnified Parties) or prosecuted by it to a final conclusion. If the Indemnified Party desires to participate in, but not control, any such defense or settlement it may do so at its sole cost and expense. If the Indemnified Party joins in any such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have full authority to determine all action to be taken with respect thereto, as long as such action could not create a liability to any of the Indemnified Parties, in which case, such action would require the prior written consent of any Indemnified Party so affected.

Project Alamo – Execution Version

31

(g) If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Claim and in making any counterclaim against the Third Person asserting the Claim, or any cross-complaint against any person as long as such cooperation, counterclaim or cross-complaint could not create a liability to any of the Indemnified Parties.

(h) At any time after the commencement of defense by Indemnifying Party under Section 10.4(f) above of any Claim, the Indemnifying Party may request the Indemnified Party to agree in writing to the abandonment of such contest or to the payment or compromise by the Indemnifying Party of the asserted Claim, but only if the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to be solely liable for such Claim; whereupon such action shall be taken unless the Indemnified Party determines that the contest should be continued and notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing within fifteen (15) days of such request from the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party determines that the contest should be continued, the amount for which the Indemnifying Party would otherwise be liable hereunder shall not exceed the amount which the Indemnifying Party had agreed to pay to compromise such Claim; provided that, the other Person to the contested Claim had agreed in writing to accept such amount in payment or compromise of the Claim as of the time the Indemnifying Party made its request therefor to the Indemnified Party, and further provided that, under such proposed compromise, the Indemnified Party would be fully and completely released from any further liability or obligation with respect to the matters which are the subject of such contested Claim.

10.5 Materiality Conditions. For purposes of determining whether an event described in this ARTICLE X has occurred for which indemnification under this ARTICLE X can be sought, any requirement in any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by HOLDINGS, MIDSTREAM, GP or MLP, as applicable, contained in this Agreement that an event or fact be “material,” “Material,” meet a certain minimum dollar threshold or have a “Material Adverse Effect” or a material adverse effect (each a “Materiality Condition”) in order for such event or fact to constitute a misrepresentation or breach of such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement under this Agreement, such Materiality Condition shall be disregarded and such representations, warranties, covenants or agreements shall be construed solely for purposes of this ARTICLE X as if they did not contain such Materiality Conditions. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.5, any claim for indemnification under this ARTICLE X will be subject to Section 10.3.

10.6 Exclusive Remedy. AS BETWEEN THE MLP INDEMNITEES AND THE HOLDINGS INDEMNITEES, AFTER CLOSING (A) THE EXPRESS INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, WILL BE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS, OBLIGATIONS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO SAID AGREEMENT AND THE EVENTS GIVING RISE THERETO, AND THE TRANSACTIONS PROVIDED FOR THEREIN OR CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (OTHER THAN THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS) AND (B) NO PARTY

32

HERETO NOR ANY OF ITS RESPECTIVE SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS SHALL HAVE ANY RIGHTS AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES WITH RESPECT TO THE TRANSACTIONS PROVIDED FOR HEREIN OTHER THAN AS IS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, AND THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS.

10.7 Negligence and Strict Liability Waiver. WITHOUT LIMITING OR ENLARGING THE SCOPE OF THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY SHALL BE ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS HEREOF, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE LOSS OR CLAIM GIVING RISE TO SUCH INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION IS THE RESULT OF THE SOLE, CONCURRENT OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR VIOLATION OF ANY LAW OF OR BY SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY.

10.8 Limitation on Damages. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY OF HOLDINGS, GP OR MLP BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER, OR TO THE OTHERS’ INDEMNITEES, UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, REMOTE, SPECULATIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES OR LOSS OF PROFITS; PROVIDED THAT, IF ANY OF THE HOLDINGS INDEMNITEES OR MLP INDEMNITEES IS HELD LIABLE TO A THIRD PERSON FOR ANY SUCH DAMAGES AND THE INDEMNITOR IS OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY SUCH HOLDINGS INDEMNITEES OR MLP INDEMNITEES FOR THE MATTER THAT GAVE RISE TO SUCH DAMAGES, THE INDEMNITOR SHALL BE LIABLE FOR, AND OBLIGATED TO REIMBURSE SUCH INDEMNITEES FOR SUCH DAMAGES.

10.9 Bold and/or Capitalized Letters. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE BOLD AND/OR CAPITALIZED LETTERS IN THIS AGREEMENT CONSTITUTE CONSPICUOUS LEGENDS.

34

Arbitral Dispute involves a claim arising out of the actions of any Person not a signatory to this Agreement, the receiving Party shall have such additional time as necessary, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, to investigate the Arbitral Dispute before submitting a written response.

(c) Failure to Resolve. If the Arbitral Dispute has not been resolved within sixty (60) days after the date of the response given pursuant to Section 11.8(b) above, or such additional time, if any, that the Parties mutually agree to in writing, or if the Party receiving such notice denies the applicability of the provisions of Section 11.8(b) or otherwise refuses to participate under the provisions of Section 11.8(b), either Party may initiate binding arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.8(d) below.

(d) Arbitration. Any Arbitral Disputes not settled pursuant to the foregoing provisions shall be resolved through the use of binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“Arbitration Rules”), as supplemented to the extent necessary to determine any procedural appeal questions by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code) and in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) If there is any inconsistency between this Section 11.8(d) and the Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 11.8(d) will control the rights and obligations of the Parties.

(ii) Arbitration shall be initiated by a Party serving written notice, via certified mail, on the other Party that the first Party elects to refer the Arbitral Dispute to binding arbitration, along with the name of the arbitrator appointed by the Party demanding arbitration and a statement of the matter in controversy. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of such demand for arbitration, the receiving Party shall name its arbitrator. If the receiving Party fails or refuses to name its arbitrator within such thirty (30) day period, the second arbitrator shall be appointed, upon request of the Party demanding arbitration, by the Chief U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Colorado, or such other person designated by such judge. The two arbitrators so selected shall within thirty (30) days after their designation select a third arbitrator; provided, however, that if the two arbitrators are not able to agree on a third arbitrator within such thirty (30) day period, either Party may request the Chief U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Colorado, or such other person designated by such judge to select the third arbitrator as soon as possible. If the Judge declines to appoint an arbitrator, appointment shall be made, upon application of either Party, pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. If any arbitrator refuses or fails to fulfill his or her duties hereunder, such arbitrator shall be replaced by the Party which selected such arbitrator (or if such arbitrator was selected by another Person, through the procedure which such arbitrator was selected) pursuant to the foregoing provisions.

(iii) The hearing will be conducted in Denver, Colorado, no later than sixty (60) days following the selection of the arbitrators or thirty (30) days after all prehearing discovery has been completed, whichever is later, at which the Parties shall present such evidence and witnesses as they may choose, with or without counsel. The Parties and the arbitrators should proceed diligently and in good faith in order that the award may be made as promptly as possible.

(iv) Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, the decision of the arbitrators will be binding on and non-appealable by the Parties. Any such decision may be filed in any court of competent jurisdiction and may be enforced by any Party as a final judgment in such court.

(v) The arbitrators shall have no right or authority to grant or award exemplary, punitive, remote, speculative, consequential, special or incidental damages.

(vi) The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, as modified or supplemented by the local rules of civil procedure for the U.S. District Court of Colorado, shall apply in the arbitration. The Parties shall make their witnesses available in a timely manner for discovery pursuant to such rules. If a Party fails to comply with this discovery agreement within the time established by the arbitrators, after resolving any discovery disputes, the arbitrators may take such failure to comply into consideration in reaching their decision. All discovery disputes shall be resolved by the arbitrators pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

(viii) The Parties hereby request that the arbitrators render their decision within thirty (30) days following conclusion of the hearing.

(ix) The defenses of statute of limitations and laches shall be tolled from and after the date a Party gives the other Party written notice of an Arbitral Dispute as provided in Section 11.8(b) above until such time as the Arbitral Dispute has been resolved pursuant to Section 11.8(b), or an arbitration award has been entered pursuant to this Section 11.8(d).

(e) Recovery of Costs and Attorneys’ Fees. If arbitration arising out of this Agreement is initiated by either Party, the decision of the arbitrators may include the award of court costs, fees and expenses of such arbitration (including reasonable attorneys’ fees).

(g) Jury Waivers. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO DEMAND A TRIAL BY JURY.

(h) Settlement Proceedings. All aspects of any settlement proceedings, including discovery, testimony and other evidence, negotiations and communications pursuant to this Section 11.8, briefs and the award shall be held confidential by each Party and the arbitrators, and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for the purposes of the Federal and State Rules of Evidence.
