AGREEMENT TO SELL AND PURCHASE

     Section 2.1 Sale and Purchase. On the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, at the Closing (as defined in Section 2.3 below), Seller hereby agrees to issue and sell to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase from such Seller, the number of Purchased Units set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Schedule 2.1 to this Agreement, and each Purchaser agrees to pay Seller the amount of the Purchase Price in respect of such Purchased Units set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Schedule 2.1 to this Agreement as consideration for the Purchased Units.

     Section 2.2 Consideration. The amount per Common Unit each Purchaser will pay to Seller to purchase the Purchased Units (the “Common Unit Price”) shall be $21.75 per Common Unit; subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 5.4(a) and Section 7.13. Upon payment of each Purchaser’s Purchase Price at Closing, such Purchaser’s Purchased Units shall be fully paid for.

     Section 2.3 Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the consummation of the purchase and sale of the Purchased Units hereunder (the “Closing”) shall occur no earlier than five Business Days following the date on which Seller provides notice to the Purchasers of its election to exercise the Commitment (such date, the “Closing Date”), at the offices of Vinson & Elkins L.L.P., 1001 Fannin, Suite 2500, Houston, Texas 77002.

     Section 2.4 Independent Obligations. The obligation of each Purchaser hereunder is several and not joint and is independent of the obligation of each other Purchaser, and the failure of, or Seller’s waiver of, performance by any Purchaser does

not excuse performance by any other Purchaser or Seller. No Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under this Agreement. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of this Agreement. Seller has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same material terms and this Agreement for the convenience of Seller and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Purchasers.

     Section 2.5 Major Acquisition. If the Major Acquisition has not been consummated at a price of not more than 1% greater than the Base Purchase Price (excluding working capital and capital expenditure adjustments), as defined in the definitive purchase and sale agreement relating to the Major Acquisition set forth on Exhibit B, within two (2) Business Days of the Closing Date, then Seller shall promptly, but in no event more than one (1) Business Day later, (i) refund the amount of the Purchase Price paid by each Purchaser in accordance with Section 2.1 in exchange for the return of the certificates evidencing the Purchased Units and (ii) pay the Commitment Fee to each Purchaser entitled to such fee as specified on Schedule 2.1.

Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify Seller and its Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives (collectively, “Seller Related Parties”) from, and hold each of them harmless against any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation, or inquiries), demands, and causes of action, and, in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay or reimburse each of them for all reasonable costs, losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter to the extent that it may be incurred by them or asserted against or involve any of them as a result of, arising out of, or in any way related to the breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of such Purchaser contained herein, provided such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of the representations and warranties by such Purchaser is made prior to the expiration of such representations and warranties. Furthermore, each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, that it will indemnify and hold harmless Seller and Seller Related Parties from and against any and all claims, demands or liabilities for broker’s, finder’s, placement or other similar fees or commissions incurred by such Purchaser or alleged to have been incurred by such Purchaser in connection with the purchase of any of the Purchased Units or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     Section 6.3 Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after any Seller Related Party or Purchaser Related Party (hereinafter, the “Indemnified Party”) has received notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any Action or proceeding by a third person, which the Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an indemnifiable claim under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the indemnitor hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such claim or the commencement of such Action or proceeding, but failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Such notice shall state the nature and the basis of such claim to the extent then known. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any such matter as long as the Indemnifying Party pursues the same diligently and in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend or settle, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in all commercially reasonable respects in the defense thereof and the settlement thereof. Such cooperation shall include, but shall not be limited to, furnishing the Indemnifying Party with any books, records and other information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or control. Such cooperation of the Indemnified Party shall be at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for so long as the Indemnifying Party diligently pursues such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled (a) at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement thereof and (b) if (i) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel or (ii) if the defendants in any such Action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such Action, with the expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any indemnified claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete release from liability of, the Indemnified Party.

     Section 6.4 Survival. The Parties’ obligations under this Article VI shall only become operative following the Closing Date and shall not survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.2.

ARTICLE VII.
MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 7.1 Interpretation of Provisions. Article, Section and Schedule references are to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified. All references to instruments, documents, contracts, and agreements are references to such instruments, documents, contracts, and agreements as the same may be amended, supplemented, and otherwise modified from time to time, unless otherwise specified. The word “including” shall mean “including but not limited to.” Whenever a Party has an obligation under this Agreement, the expense of complying with that obligation shall be an expense of such Party unless otherwise specified. Whenever any determination, consent, or approval is to be made or given by a Party, such action shall be in such Party’s sole discretion unless otherwise specified in this Agreement. If any provision in this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, not binding, or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, not binding, or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. This Agreement has been reviewed and negotiated by sophisticated parties with access to legal counsel and shall not be construed against the drafter.

     Section 7.2 Survival. The representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, Section 3.8, Section 3.9, Section 3.10, Section 4.10 and Section 4.11 hereunder shall survive indefinitely, and the other representations and warranties set forth herein shall survive for a period of twelve (12) months, in each case, following the Closing Date regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Seller or the Purchasers. The covenants made in this Agreement shall survive the Closing of the transactions described herein and remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of acceptance of any of the Purchased Units and payment therefor.

     Section 7.3 No Waiver; Modifications in Writing.

     (a) Delay. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies that may be available to a Party at law or in equity or otherwise.

     (b) Specific Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment, waiver, consent, modification or termination of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless signed by each of the Parties hereto or thereto affected by such amendment, waiver, consent, modification or termination.

Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand

on a Party in any case shall entitle such Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

     Section 7.4 Binding Effect; Assignment.

     (a) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon Seller, the Purchasers and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the Parties to this Agreement, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

     (b) Assignment of Rights. All or any portion of the rights and obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement may be transferred to any Affiliate of such Purchaser but may not otherwise be transferred by such Purchaser without the prior written consent of Seller.

     Section 7.5 Confidentiality. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent that any Purchaser has executed or is otherwise bound by a confidentiality agreement in favor of Seller, such Purchaser shall continue to be bound by such confidentiality agreement (notwithstanding any termination provision contained therein). To the extent that any Purchaser has not executed or is not otherwise bound by a confidentiality agreement in favor of Seller, and has actually received Confidential Information from Seller, such Purchaser will refrain, and will cause its Representatives to refrain, from disclosing to any other Person any Confidential Information; provided, however, that with respect to any Purchaser who has not executed and is not otherwise bound by a confidentiality agreement in favor of Seller, Seller acknowledges that Seller has not provided such Purchaser any Confidential Information unless requested by such Purchaser. Disclosure of Confidential Information will not be deemed to be a breach of this Section 7.5 if such disclosure is made with the consent of Seller or pursuant to a subpoena or order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a judicial, administrative or legislative body or committee; provided, however, that upon receipt by any Purchaser of any subpoena or order covering Confidential Information of Seller, such Purchaser will to the extent reasonably practicable promptly notify Seller of such subpoena or order.

     Section 7.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended by the Parties as a final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the Parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein with respect to the rights granted by Seller or any of its Affiliates or Purchasers or any of their Affiliates set forth herein. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to such subject matter, including any term sheets and commitment letters.

     Section 7.8 Governing Law. This Agreement will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Texas without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

     Section 7.9 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different Parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original

and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement.

     Section 7.10 Costs and Expenses. Each Party shall be responsible for such Party’s own expenses in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, except that Seller will reimburse the Lead Purchaser for up to $25,000 of legal fees incurred by Baker Botts L.L.P. (“Baker Botts Legal Fees”). Any Baker Botts Legal Fees in excess of $25,000 shall be paid pro rata by all Purchasers in proportion to the aggregate number of Purchased Units set forth opposite the names of such Purchasers on Schedule 2.1.

     Section 7.11 Short Selling Acknowledgement and Agreement. Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges, severally and not jointly with any other Purchaser, that the Commission currently takes the position that coverage of Short Sales of securities “against the box” prior to the effective date of a registration statement is a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly , that it will not (and shall cause its Affiliates not to) engage in any Short Sales that result in the disposition of the Common Units acquired hereunder by the Purchaser until such time as the Shelf Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is declared or deemed effective by the Commission. Each Purchaser further agrees, severally and not jointly, that it will not (and shall cause its Affiliates not to) enter into any Short Sales that result in the disposition of the Common Units owned by it from the date hereof through the Closing Date; provided that this provision shall not limit any Purchaser’s ability to fulfill contractual obligations existing on the date hereof.

     Section 7.12 Unit Split Affecting the Purchased Units. In the event that Seller declares a unit split with respect to its Common Units and the record date for such unit split is after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date, the number of Purchased Units to be delivered to Purchasers hereunder and the Common Unit Price and the Purchase Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted so that the Purchasers would be in the same relative economic position as they would be if such Purchased Units would have been issued and delivered to the Purchasers prior to the record date for any such unit split.

     Section 7.13 Distributions. If the Closing Date is after the record date relating to a distribution to be made to holders of Common Units with respect to the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2010 (the Seller anticipates paying such distribution on or about February 15, 2011) or any other distribution to be made to holders of Common Units, then the Purchasers shall not be entitled to receive such distribution but the Common Unit Price payable by Purchasers entitled to receive a Commitment Fee as specified on Schedule 2.1 shall be reduced by the per Common Unit amount of such distribution and the number of Purchased Units set forth on Schedule 2.1 shall be increased accordingly. For the avoidance of doubt, the Common Unit Price payable by Purchasers not entitled to receive a Commitment Fee as specified on Schedule 2.1 shall not be reduced by the amount of such distribution and the number of Purchased Units set forth on Schedule 2.1 with regard to such Purchasers shall not be increased.

     Section 7.14 Removal of Legend. In connection with a sale of the Purchased Units by a Purchaser in reliance on Rule 144, the applicable Purchaser or its broker shall deliver to the Seller a broker representation letter providing any information the Seller deems necessary to determine that the sale of the Purchased Units is made in compliance with Rule 144, including, as may be appropriate, a certification that the Purchaser is not an affiliate of the Seller and regarding the length of time the Purchased Units have been held. Upon receipt of such representation letter, the Seller shall as soon as reasonably practicable exchange unit certificates bearing the legend described in Section 4.9 for unit certificates without such legend. After any Purchaser or its permitted assigns have held the Purchased Units for one year, if such Purchased Units still bear the legend described in Section 4.9, the Purchaser may request the Seller to remove the legend and the Seller agrees to take all steps necessary to effect the removal of the legend as soon as reasonably practicable. The Seller shall bear all direct costs and expenses associated with the removal of a legend pursuant to this Section 7.14, regardless of whether the request is made in connection with a sale or otherwise, so long as such Purchaser or its permitted assigns provide to the Seller any information the Seller deems necessary to determine that the legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or applicable state laws, including a certification that the holder is not an affiliate of the Seller and regarding the length of time the Purchased Units have been held; provided, however, that the Seller shall not be responsible for any legal fees and expenses of counsel incurred by the Purchaser in connection therewith.

     Section 7.15 Certain Special Allocations of Book and Taxable Income. To the extent that the Common Unit Price differs from the trading price of the Common Units on the NYSE as of the Closing Date (the “Private Placement Value”), the general partner of the Seller intends to specially allocate Seller items of book and taxable income, gain, loss or deduction to the Purchasers so that their capital accounts in their Purchased Units are equal, on a per-Unit basis, with the capital accounts of the other holders of Common Units (and thus to assure fungibility of all Common Units). Such special allocation will occur upon the earlier to occur of any taxable period of Seller ending upon, or after, (a) a book-up event or book-down event in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Seller occurring after the date of the issuance of the Purchased Units, or (b) the transfer of the Purchased Units to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Purchaser, in which case, such allocation shall be made only with respect to the Purchased Units so transferred. A Purchaser holding a Purchased Unit shall be required to provide notice to the general partner of the Seller of a transfer of a Purchased Unit to a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Purchaser no later than the last Business Day of the calendar year during which such transfer occurred, unless by virtue of the application of clause (a) above, the general partner of the Seller has determined that the capital accounts of Common Units transferred are equal, on a per-Unit basis, with the capital accounts of the other holders of Common Units. The initial capital account balance in respect of each Purchased Unit shall be the Private Placement Value for such Purchased Unit. To provide Purchasers of the Purchased Units with a net capital account in the Purchased Units on the date of purchase equal to the Common Unit Price paid by those Purchasers for the Purchased Units, immediately following the creation of a capital account balance in respect of each Purchased Unit, each holder acquiring a Purchased Unit at original issuance shall be

deemed to have (x) received a cash distribution in respect of each Purchased Unit in an amount equal to any excess of the Private Placement Value over the Common Unit Price of the Purchased Unit or (y) made a cash contribution in respect of each Purchased Unit in an amount equal to any excess of the Common Unit Price over the Private Placement Value of the Purchased Unit.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto execute this Agreement, effective as of the date first above written.
