expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or
other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which any Indemnitee may be involved, or is
threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its status as an Indemnitee;
<I>provided</I>, that the Indemnitee shall not be indemnified and held harmless if there has been a final
and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in
respect of the matter for which the Indemnitee is seeking indemnification pursuant to Section&nbsp;7.7
of the Partnership Agreement, the Indemnitee acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud, willful
misconduct or, in the case of a criminal matter, acted with knowledge that the Indemnitee&#146;s conduct
was unlawful; <I>provided</I>, further, no indemnification pursuant to Section&nbsp;7.7 of the Partnership
Agreement shall be available to the General Partner or its affiliates (other than the Partnership
or any of its subsidiaries) with respect to its or their obligations incurred pursuant to the
Underwriting Agreement entered into by the Partnership in connection with its initial public
offering of common units, the Omnibus Agreement or the Contribution, Conveyance and Assumption
Agreement (other than obligations incurred by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership).
Any indemnification pursuant to Section&nbsp;7.7 of the Partnership Agreement shall be made only out of
the assets of the Partnership, it being agreed that the General Partner shall not be personally
liable for such indemnification and shall have no obligation to contribute or loan any monies or
property to the Partnership to enable it to effectuate such indemnification.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;7.7(b) of the Partnership Agreement also states that to the fullest extent permitted
by law, expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee who is indemnified
pursuant to Section&nbsp;7.7(a) of the Partnership Agreement in defending any claim, demand, action,
suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Partnership prior to a
determination that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified upon receipt by the Partnership
of any undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall be determined
that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in Section&nbsp;7.7 of the
Partnership Agreement.

expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or

threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its status as an Indemnitee;
provided
, that the Indemnitee shall not be indemnified and held harmless if there has been a final
and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in
respect of the matter for which the Indemnitee is seeking indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7
of the Partnership Agreement, the Indemnitee acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud, willful
misconduct or, in the case of a criminal matter, acted with knowledge that the Indemnitee's conduct
was unlawful;
provided
, further, no indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7 of the Partnership
Agreement shall be available to the General Partner or its affiliates (other than the Partnership

offering of common units, the Omnibus Agreement or the Contribution, Conveyance and Assumption

liable for such indemnification and shall have no obligation to contribute or loan any monies or
property to the Partnership to enable it to effectuate such indemnification.
Section 7.7(b) of the Partnership Agreement also states that to the fullest extent permitted
by law, expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee who is indemnified
pursuant to Section 7.7(a) of the Partnership Agreement in defending any claim, demand, action,
suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Partnership prior to a
determination that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified upon receipt by the Partnership

that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in Section 7.7 of the
Partnership Agreement.

liabilities incurred as a result of any act or omission of an Indemnitee unless there has been a
final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in
respect of the matter in question, the Indemnitee acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud, willful
misconduct or, in the case of a criminal matter, acted with knowledge that the Indemnitee's conduct
was criminal.
The Underwriting Agreement entered into by the Partnership in connection with its initial
public offering of common units provides for the indemnification of the directors and officers of
the General Partner in certain circumstances by the underwriters.

Item 9. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of
1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date
of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set
forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered
would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of
the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with
the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and
price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth
in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such
information in the registration statement;
Provided, however,
That paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if
the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs
is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the
registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to section
13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing
of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
provisions described under Item 6 above, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the
opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
