WHEREAS, the General Partner desires to eliminate the economic portion of the General Partner Interest and cancel all of the General Partner Units, in exchange for the issuance by the Partnership of an equivalent amount of 155,102 common units representing limited partner interests (the “Common Units”) in the Partnership (the “Consideration”);

WHEREAS, simultaneously with the effectiveness of this Agreement, the General Partner Interest is ceasing to be an economic interest in the Partnership; however, the General Partner is continuing to be the general partner of the Partnership; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, warranties and mutual covenants set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Cancellation.

3.    Acknowledgements by the General Partner. The General Partner represents, warrants and acknowledges that, other than the incentive distribution rights in the Partnership held by the General Partner (the “IDR’s”), the GP Units represent all of the General Partner’s economic interest

in the Partnership and following the effectiveness of the transactions contemplated by clauses 1 and 2 above, other than with respect to the IDR’s and the Consideration, the rights of the General Partner shall not include any rights to profits or losses or any rights to receive distributions from operations or upon the liquidation or winding-up of the Partnership; provided, however, that the General Partner Interest shall be a non-economic management and ownership interest of the General Partner in the Partnership (in its capacity as a general partner and without reference to any Limited Partner Interest (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) held by it) and includes any and all rights, powers and benefits to which the General Partner is entitled as provided in the Partnership Agreement, together with all obligations of the General Partner to comply with the terms and provisions of the Partnership Agreement.

4.    Acknowledgements by the Partnership. The Common Units to be issued under this Agreement, when issued and delivered by the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will be validly issued and fully paid (to the extent required by the Partnership Agreement) and non-assessable (except as such nonassessability may be affected by Sections 17-303, 17-607 and 17-804 of the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act).

No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other provision (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.

7.    Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same agreement.

8.    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.
