(the "Partnership") and certain selling unitholders entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with Barclays Capital Inc. in connection with such selling unitholders' public offering of common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (the "Common Units").
The Underwriting Agreement provides for, among other things, the sale by the selling unitholders of an aggregate of 6,000,000 Common Units, at a public offering price of $32.15 per Common Unit. The Partnership will not receive any of the proceeds from the Common Units sold by the selling unitholders.
The Common Units have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to the Partnership's effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-173337), as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement dated October 2, 2012, relating to the Common Units, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Act.

The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligations of the underwriter to purchase the Common Units are subject to receipt of legal opinions by counsel and to other customary conditions as well as the closing of a related transaction.

The Partnership and the selling unitholders have agreed to indemnify the underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the underwriter may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.
