Section 3.1 Existence. Each of the Partnership Entities has been duly formed and is validly existing as a limited liability company or limited partnership, as the case may be, in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation with all limited liability company or limited partnership power and authority necessary to own or hold its properties and to conduct the businesses in which it is engaged, and, in the case of the General Partner, to act as the general partner of the Partnership.

(b) Commencing with the quarter ending June 30, 2014, the holders of Purchased Units as of an applicable Record Date shall be entitled to receive distributions in an amount equal to the distribution paid on all of the Common Units. Through the quarterly distribution payable with respect to the quarter ending June 30, 2018, such distributions may be paid in cash, in Distribution Units or a combination thereof, as determined by the Partnership in its sole discretion. If the Partnership elects to pay distributions through the issuance of Distribution Units, the number of Common Units to be issued in connection with a quarterly distribution shall be the quotient of (A) the amount of the quarterly distribution paid on the Common Units by (B) the volume-weighted average price of the Common Units for the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the date a quarterly distribution is declared with respect to the Common Units; provided that fractional shares of Common Units shall not be issued to any person (each fractional share of a Common Unit shall be rounded down to the next lower whole Common Unit and the remaining amount of the distribution will be paid in cash, or at the Partnership’s option, it may round the number of Common Units up to the next higher whole Common Unit). Beginning with the quarterly distribution payable with respect to the quarter ending September 30, 2018, the Purchased Units will receive distributions on the same basis as all other Common Units and the Partnership will no longer have the ability to elect to pay quarterly distributions in kind through the issuance of Distribution Units.

All outstanding Common Units have been duly authorized and validly issued in accordance with the Partnership Agreement and are fully paid (to the extent required under the Partnership Agreement) and nonassessable (except as such nonassessability may be affected by matters described in Sections 17-303, 17-607 and 17-804 of the Delaware LP Act).

(d) The Common Units are listed on the NYSE, and the Partnership has not received any notice of delisting.

Section 3.3 No Conflict. None of the offering, issuance and sale by the Partnership of the Purchased Units and the application of the proceeds therefrom, the execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Documents by the Partnership, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (i) conflicts or will conflict with, or constitutes or will constitute a violation of, the certificate or agreement of limited partnership, certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement or other organizational documents of the Partnership Entities, (ii) conflicts or will conflict with, or constitutes or will constitute a breach or violation of or a default under (or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a breach or violation of or default under), any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease or other agreement or instrument to which any Partnership Entity or any material Subsidiary of a Partnership Entity is a party, by which any of them is bound or to which any of their respective properties or assets is subject, (iii) violates or will violate any statute, law, ordinance, regulation, order, judgment, decree or injunction of any court or governmental agency or body to which any Partnership Entity or any material Subsidiary of a Partnership Entity, or any of their respective properties or assets may be subject or (iv) will result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of any Partnership Entity or any material Subsidiary of any Partnership Entity, which conflicts, breaches, violations, defaults or Liens, in the case of clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv), would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.4 Authority. The Partnership has all requisite power and authority to issue, sell and deliver the Purchased Units, in accordance with and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Partnership Agreement.

No approval from the holders of outstanding Common Units is required under the Partnership Agreement or the rules of the NYSE in connection with the Partnership’s issuance and sale of the Purchased Units to the Purchaser.

No permit, consent, approval, authorization, order, registration, filing or qualification (“consent”) of or with any court, governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over any of the Partnership Entities or any material Subsidiary of any Partnership Entity, or any of their respective properties is required in connection with the offering and sale of the Purchased Units in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Partnership Entities, or the

consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for such consents (i) required under the Securities Act and state securities or “Blue Sky” laws or (ii) that, if not obtained, would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.6 Compliance with Laws. As of the date hereof, neither the Partnership nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any Law applicable to the Partnership or its Subsidiaries, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The Partnership and its Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses, except where the failure to possess such certificates, authorizations or permits would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, and neither the Partnership nor any such Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authorization or permit, except where such potential revocation or modification would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.7 Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Purchased Units are, and the Distribution Units will be, characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities Laws inasmuch as they are being, or will be, as applicable, acquired from the Partnership in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such Laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances.

Section 4.8 Legend; Restrictive Notation. The Purchaser understands that the certificates evidencing the Purchased Units or the book-entry account maintained by the transfer agent evidencing ownership of the Purchased Units, as applicable, will bear the legend or restrictive notation required by the Partnership Agreement as well as the following legends or restrictive notations:

(a) “These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction. These securities may not be sold or offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration thereunder which, in the opinion of counsel for the holder, which counsel and opinion are reasonably satisfactory to the counsel for the Partnership, is available, in each case in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the states or other jurisdictions, and in the case of a transaction exempt from registration, such securities may only be transferred if the transfer agent for such securities has received documentation satisfactory to it that such transaction does not require registration under the Securities Act.”

(b) “The securities represented hereby are subject to certain restrictions on transfer pursuant to a private transaction set forth in Section 5.2 of that certain Common Unit Purchase Agreement dated as of May 19, 2014 among the issuer of such securities (the “Partnership”) and the other party or parties named therein. A copy of the provisions of such agreement setting forth such restrictions on transfer is on file with the secretary of the General Partner of the Partnership. For the avoidance of doubt, such restrictions do not create any limitations or otherwise affect in any manner any transaction that is not a private transaction. For example, such restrictions do not apply to any resale pursuant to a registration statement.”

The Purchaser understands that the certificates evidencing the Distribution Units or the book-entry account maintained by the transfer agent evidencing ownership of the Distribution Units, as applicable, will bear the legend or restrictive notation required by the Partnership Agreement as well as the legends or restrictive notations set forth in Section 4.8(a)

Section 4.9 Reliance on Exemptions. The Purchaser understands that the Purchased Units and Distribution Units are being offered and sold to the Purchaser in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Partnership is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire the Purchased Units and the Distribution Units.

Section 5.1 Taking of Necessary Action. Each of the parties hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts promptly to take or cause to be taken all action and promptly to do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law and regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions between the Partnership and the Purchaser contemplated by this Agreement related specifically to the acquisition of the Purchased Units and the Distribution Units. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Partnership and the Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make all filings and obtain all consents of Governmental Authorities that may be necessary or, in the reasonable opinion of the Partnership and the Purchaser, as the case may be, advisable for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents.

Section 5.2 Purchaser Lock-Up. For a period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on July 1, 2018 (the “Lock-Up Period”), the Purchaser agrees not to, directly or indirectly, (a) offer for sale, sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the disposition by any person at any time in the future of) the Purchased Units, (b) enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of the Purchased Units, whether any such transaction described in clause (a) or (b) above is to be

settled by delivery of Common Units or other securities, in cash or otherwise, or (c) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may transfer the Purchased Units to any Affiliate or any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by the Purchaser who agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement pursuant to the requirements of section 7.5 of the Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, if Distribution Units are issued to the holders of Common Units, such Distribution Units will not be subject to the Purchaser Lock-Up.

Section 5.3 Shelf Registration Statement. Within fifteen (15) days following the Closing Date, the Partnership shall prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act to permit the public resale of a good faith estimate of the total number of Distribution Units that may be issued to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.2(b). The registration statement filed by the Partnership pursuant to this Section 5.3 (the “Registration Statement”) shall be on Form S-3 or such appropriate form of the Commission as shall be selected by the Partnership so long as such form permits the continuous offering of the Distribution Units pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act or such other rule as is then applicable at the then prevailing market prices. The Partnership shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable thereafter. The Partnership shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be effective, supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for the resale of the Distribution Units covered by the Registration Statement by the Purchaser in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement. The Registration Statement when effective (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) will comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which a statement is made). As soon as practicable following the date that the Registration Statement becomes effective, but in any event within two (2) Business Days of such date, the Partnership shall provide the Purchaser with written notice of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

Section 6.1 Indemnification by the Partnership. The Partnership agrees to indemnify the Purchaser and its Representatives (collectively, “Purchaser 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 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 that 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 the Partnership contained herein, provided that such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of the representations or warranties is made prior to the expiration of such representations or warranties to the extent applicable; and provided further, that no Purchaser Related Party shall be entitled to recover special, consequential or punitive damages under this Section 6.1.

Section 6.2 Indemnification by Purchaser. The Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Partnership, the General Partner and their respective Representatives (collectively, “Partnership 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 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 that 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 that such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of the representations and warranties is made prior to the expiration of such representations and warranties to the extent applicable; and provided further, that no Partnership Related Party shall be entitled to recover special, consequential or punitive damages under this Section 6.2.

Section 6.3 Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after any Partnership Related Party or Purchaser Related Party (hereinafter, the “Indemnified Party”) has received notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any action, suit 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, suit 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 who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, 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 (i) at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement thereof and (ii) if (A) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party or (B) 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 one separate counsel who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party 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, and does not include any admission of wrongdoing or malfeasance by, the Indemnified Party. The remedies provided for in this Article VI are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies that may be available to a party at law or in equity or otherwise.

Section 7.1 Certain Special Allocations of Book and Taxable Income. To the extent that the Common Unit Price differs from the Per Unit Capital Amount as of the Closing Date for a then Outstanding Common Unit after taking into account the issuance of the Purchased Units, the General Partner intends to specially allocate Partnership items of book and taxable income, gain, loss or deduction to the Purchaser so that the Per Unit Capital Amount with respect to their Purchased Units are equal to the Per Unit Capital Amounts with respect to other Common Units (and thus to assure fungibility of all Common Units). Such special allocations will occur upon the earlier to occur of any taxable period of the Partnership ending upon, or after, (a) an event described in Section 5.5(d) of the Partnership Agreement or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership 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. To the maximum extent permissible, the special allocations resulting from clause (a) will be made through allocations of Unrealized Gain.

Section 7.2 Interpretation and Severability. Article, Section, Schedule, and Exhibit 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 any party has an obligation under the Operative Documents, 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 the Purchaser, such action shall be in such Purchaser’s sole discretion unless otherwise specified in this Agreement. If any provision in the Operative Documents is held to be illegal, invalid, not binding, or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and the Operative Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, not binding, or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of the Operative Documents, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The Operative Documents have been reviewed and negotiated by sophisticated parties with access to legal counsel and shall not be construed against the drafter.

Section 7.3 Survival of Provisions. The representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.5, 3.8, 3.13, 3.14, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8 and 4.9 hereunder shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement indefinitely, and the other representations and warranties set forth herein shall survive for a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Partnership or any Purchaser. The covenants made in this Agreement or any other Operative Document shall survive the Closing of the transactions described herein and remain operative and in full force and effect. All indemnification obligations of the Partnership and the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and the provisions of Article VI shall remain operative and in full force and effect unless such obligations are expressly terminated in a writing by the parties, regardless of any purported general termination of this Agreement.

(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) Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment, waiver, consent, modification, or termination of any provision of this Agreement or any other Operative Document shall be effective unless signed by each of the parties hereto or thereto affected by such amendment, waiver, consent, modification, or termination. Any amendment, supplement or modification of or to any provision of this Agreement or any other Operative Document, any waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Operative Document, and any consent to any departure by the Partnership from the terms of any provision of this Agreement or any other Operative Document shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on the Partnership in any case shall entitle the Partnership to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(a) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Partnership, the Purchaser, 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. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, all or any portion of the rights and obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement may be transferred by the Purchaser by delivery of the transferee’s agreement to be bound by the Operative Documents and a revised Exhibit A attached hereto. Upon the expiration of the Lock-Up Period set forth in

Section 5.2 of this Agreement, all or any portion of the rights and obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement may be transferred by the Purchaser to any Affiliate of the Purchaser without the consent of the Partnership. No portion of the rights and obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement may be transferred by the Purchaser during the Lock-Up Period without the written consent of the Partnership (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by the Partnership).

Section 7.6 Communications. All notices and demands provided for hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, telecopy, air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery or personal delivery to the following addresses:

or to such other address as the Partnership or the Purchaser may designate in writing. All notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; at the time of transmittal, if sent via electronic mail; upon actual receipt if sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, or regular mail, if mailed; when receipt acknowledged, if sent via facsimile; and upon actual receipt when delivered to an air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery.

Section 7.7 Removal of Legend. The Purchaser may request the Partnership to remove the legends described in Section 4.8 from the certificates evidencing the Purchased Units by submitting to the Partnership such certificates, together with an opinion of counsel, which counsel and opinion are reasonably satisfactory to the Partnership, to the effect that such legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or applicable state laws, as the case may be. The Partnership shall cooperate with the Purchaser to effect the removal of such legend.

Section 7.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Operative Documents and the other agreements and documents referred to herein are 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 and therein. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein or the other Operative Documents with respect to the rights granted by the Partnership or any of its Affiliates or the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates set forth

herein or therein. This Agreement, the other Operative Documents and the other agreements and documents referred to herein or therein supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be terminated at any time at or prior to the Closing by any party, upon a breach in any material respect by the other party of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement, which breach has not been cured, or which breach by its nature cannot be cured, prior to the Closing Date, provided in any such case that the terminating party is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein; provided, however, that no party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.9 unless the breach of covenants or agreements, together with all other such breaches, would entitle the party receiving the benefit of such covenants or agreements not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under Section 2.5.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall automatically terminate at any time at or prior to the Closing if a statute, rule, order, decree or regulations shall have been enacted or promulgated, of if any action shall have been taken by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction that permanently restrains, permanently precludes, permanently enjoins or otherwise permanently prohibits the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or makes the transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal.

(c) In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in this Section 7.9, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void. In the event of such a termination, there shall be no liability on the part of any party hereto, except as set forth in Article VI of this Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall relieve any party from any liability or obligation with respect to fraud or the willful and material breach of a covenant or agreement contained herein. In the case of fraud or willful and material breach of a covenant or agreement contained herein, then the parties hereto shall be entitled to all remedies available at law or in equity. For purposes of this Agreement, “willful and material breach” means a deliberate act or failure to act, which act or failure to act constitutes in and of itself a material breach of this Agreement that the breaching party had Knowledge would or would reasonably be expected to breach its obligations under this Agreement.

Section 7.10 Governing Law. This Agreement will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware.

Section 7.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE OPERATIVE DOCUMENTS.

Section 7.12 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.

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