  Item 4. Description of Securities
  Not applicable.
  Item 5. Interests of
  Named Experts and Counsel
  Not applicable.
  Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
  Under the terms of the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Registrant, as amended, restated and otherwise
  modified from time to time (the "Partnership Agreement"), the Registrant will generally indemnify the directors, officers, and affiliates of the General Partner against all losses, claims, damages, or similar events. Subject to any terms,
  conditions, or restrictions set forth in the Partnership Agreement,
  Section 17-108
  of the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act empowers a Delaware limited partnership to indemnify and hold
  harmless any partner or other person from and against all claims and demands whatsoever.
  Under the terms of the Registrant's Partnership Agreement
  the Registrant will generally indemnify the following persons:
  (1)
  any person who is or was an affiliate of the General Partner;
  (2)
  any person who is or was a manager, managing member, general partner, director, officer, fiduciary, or trustee
  of the Registrant, its subsidiaries, the General Partner, or any of their affiliates;
  (3)
  any person who is or was serving as a manager, managing member, general partner, director, officer, employee,
  agent, fiduciary, or trustee of another person owing a fiduciary duty to the Registrant or its subsidiaries; and
  (4)
  any person designated by the General Partner.
  Any indemnification under these provisions will only be out the assets of the Registrant. The Registrant may purchase insurance covering
  liabilities that may be asserted against, or expense that may be incurred by such persons for the Registrant's activities, regardless of whether the Registrant would have the power to indemnify such person against such liabilities under the
  Partnership Agreement.
  In addition,
  Section 18-108
  of the Delaware Limited Liability Company
  Act provides that a Delaware limited liability company may indemnify and hold harmless any member or manager or other person from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever. The amended and restated limited liability company agreement of
  the General Partner provides for the indemnification of its directors and executive officers against liabilities they incur in their capacities as such.
  The Plan provides that the committee that administers the Plan (the "Committee")
  and all members thereof are entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to them by any officer or employee of the Registrant, the General Partner, any of their affiliates, the Registrant's or General
  Partner's legal counsel, independent auditors, consultants or any other agents assisting in the administration of this Plan. Members of the Committee and any officer or employee of the General Partner, the Registrant, or any of their affiliates
  acting at the direction or on behalf of the Committee shall not be personally liable for any action or determination taken or made in good faith with respect to the Plan, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be indemnified and held
  harmless by the Registrant with respect to any such action or determination.

  Item 9. Undertakings.
  (a)
  The 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;
  (ii)
  to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this 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 this 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 Filing Fee
  Tables" in the effective registration statement; and
  (iii)
  to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
  Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
  provided, however,
  that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to
  Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
  (2)
  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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 Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each
  filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
  Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this 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 may be permitted to directors,
  officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
  Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
  successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
  settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
  SIGNATURES
  Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets
  all of the requirements for filing on Form
  S-8,
  and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Houston, State of Texas,
