(a)          In the event that any written claim or demand for which an indemnifying Party (an “Indemnifying Party”) may have liability to any Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third Party (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall, within twenty (20) days following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of a Third-Party Claim, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Third-Party Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Third-Party Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”); provided that the failure to give a timely Claim Notice shall affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder only to the extent that such failure has a prejudicial effect on the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party that it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim.

(b)          In the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period (the “Defense Notice”) that it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Party by appropriate Proceedings and shall have the sole power to direct and control such defense at its expense commencing upon delivery of the Defense Notice. The Indemnified Party may participate in any such defense at its expense (which expense after the delivery of the Defense Notice may not be claimed by the Indemnified Party as a Loss); provided that such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the reasonable expense of the Indemnifying Party if the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are both parties to the proceedings and the representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim on a basis that would result in (i) a finding or admission of a violation of Law by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or (ii) any monetary Liability of the Indemnified Party that is not concurrently paid or reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party.

(c)          If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right but not the obligation to assume its own defense; it being understood that the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification for a Third-Party Claim shall not be adversely affected by assuming the defense of such Third-Party Claim in such circumstance. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may settle the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.

(d)          The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of a Third-Party Claim, including by providing access to each other’s relevant business records and other documents, and employees.

(e)          The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall use reasonable best efforts to avoid production of confidential information (in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement and consistent with applicable Law), and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any Party to a Third-Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privileges.

4.6          Direct Claims. If an Indemnified Party wishes to make a claim for indemnification hereunder for a Loss that does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Direct Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Direct Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto. The Indemnifying Party shall have a period of forty-five (45) days within which to respond to such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying Party rejects all or any part of the Direct Claim, the Indemnified Party shall be free to seek enforcement of its rights to indemnification under this Agreement with respect to such Direct Claim.

4.7          Payments. The amounts payable pursuant to this Article IV (the “Indemnification Amount”) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in either case no later than thirty (30) Business Days following any final determination of the Indemnification Amount and the Indemnifying Party’s liability therefor. A “final determination” shall exist when (i) the parties to the dispute have reached an agreement in writing, (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction shall have entered a final and non-appealable order or judgment or (iii) an arbitration or like panel shall have rendered a final non-appealable determination with respect to disputes the parties have agreed to submit thereto. In the event the Indemnifying Party fails to pay timely any Indemnification Amount as provided in the first sentence of this Section 4.7, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of final determination of the Indemnification Amount to the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to fifteen percent (15%) per annum. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed, without compounding. In the event that any Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled to payment from CEGP under an indemnity claim made under Section 4.2, and such payment is not timely paid in full in accordance with this Section 4.7, then, at Purchaser’s option and in addition to any other remedies available to Purchaser, Purchaser may, by written notice to CEGP, elect to take all or any part of such payment from the Holdback Amount.

4.8          Characterization of Indemnification Payments. All payments made by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim pursuant to Sections 4.2 or 4.3 shall be treated as adjustments to the Final Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 7.1 shall be void.

7.2           No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

7.4           Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement, in any Exhibit or Schedule hereto, in the Disclosure Schedule and in the table of contents to this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

7.5           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more such counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other Party. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by any Party may be evidenced by facsimile or email delivered in portable document file (.pdf) format (with originals sent via overnight courier), which shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.

7.6           Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all Exhibits, Schedules and the Disclosure Schedule, contains the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the Transactions and supersedes all prior agreements, including the Letter of Intent dated August 16, 2013 by and between JLD Services, LP and CEGP (effective as of August 19, 2013), and understandings relating to the Transactions. No Party shall be liable or bound to any other Party in any manner by any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements relating to such subject matter except as specifically set forth herein.

7.7           Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented except by a writing signed by all Parties. Sellers, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, may waive compliance in writing with regard to any term or provision of this Agreement that the other Party was or is obligated to comply with or perform. No waiver of, or consent to a change in, any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of, or consent to a change in, other provisions hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. Subject to the other provisions hereof, no failure on the part of any Party to this Agreement to exercise and no delay in exercising any right hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise by any Party hereto of any right hereunder preclude any other or further right of exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

7.8           Severability. It is the desire and intent of the Parties that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the Laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, if any particular provision of this Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable for any reason, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction, unless the severance of any such provision from the remainder of this Agreement would change the economic substance of the Agreement as a whole in a manner that is materially adverse to any Party (and such change is not waived in writing by such affected Person). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by Law, the Parties waive any provision of Law that renders any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

7.9           Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Texas applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State, without regard to the conflicts of law principles of such State. Each of the Parties to this Agreement consents to personal jurisdiction for any equitable action sought in the courts of the State of Texas, County of Dallas, or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas.

7.10         Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with the preparation and execution of this Agreement, or any amendment or waiver hereof, and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such costs and expenses.

7.11         Agreement to Arbitrate.

(a)          Arbitration. The procedures for discussion, negotiation and arbitration set forth in this Section 7.11 shall be the final, binding and exclusive means to resolve, and shall apply to all disputes, controversies or claims (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) that may rise out of or relate to, or arise under or in connection with: (a) this Agreement, or (b) the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including all actions taken in furtherance of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby on or prior to the date hereof. Each Party agrees on behalf of itself that the procedures set forth in this Section 7.11 shall be the final, binding and exclusive remedy in connection with any dispute, controversy or claim relating to any of the foregoing matters and irrevocably waives any right to commence any Proceeding in or before any Governmental Entity, except as expressly provided in Section 7.11(g)(ii) and except to the extent provided under the Federal Arbitration Act in the case of judicial review of arbitration results or awards. Each Party on behalf of itself and each member of its respective Group irrevocably waives any right to any trial by jury with respect to any dispute, controversy or claim covered by this Section 7.11.

(b)          Escalation.

(i)          It is the intent of the Parties to use their respective reasonable best efforts to resolve expeditiously any dispute, controversy or claim between or among them with respect to the matters covered by this Section 7.11 that may arise from time to time on a mutually acceptable negotiated basis. In furtherance of the foregoing, any Party involved in a dispute, controversy or claim may deliver a notice (an “Escalation Notice”) demanding an in-person meeting involving representatives of the Parties at a senior level of management (or if the Parties agree, of the appropriate business function or division within such entity) who have not previously been directly engaged in asserting or responding to the dispute. A copy of any such Escalation Notice shall be delivered addressed to each Party involved in the dispute, controversy or claim (which copy shall state that it is an Escalation Notice pursuant to this Agreement). Any agenda, location or procedures for such discussions or negotiations between the Parties may be established by agreement of the Parties from time to time; provided, however, that the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to meet within 20 days of the Escalation Notice.

(ii)         Following delivery of an Escalation Notice, the Parties shall undertake good faith, diligent efforts to negotiate a commercially reasonable resolution of the dispute, controversy or claim. The Parties may, by mutual consent, retain a mediator to aid the Parties in their discussions and negotiations by informally providing advice to Parties. Any opinion expressed by the mediator shall be strictly advisory and shall not be binding on the Parties, nor shall any opinion expressed by the mediator be admissible in any arbitration proceedings. The mediator may be chosen from a list of mediators previously selected by the Parties or by other agreement of the Parties. Costs of the mediation shall be borne equally by the Parties involved in the matter, except that each Party shall be responsible for its own expenses. Mediation is not a prerequisite to an Arbitration Demand Notice under Section 7.11(c).

(c)          Demand for Arbitration.

(i)          At any time following 60 days after the date of an Escalation Notice (the “Arbitration Demand Date”), any Party involved in the dispute, controversy or claim (regardless of whether such Party delivered the Escalation Notice) may deliver a notice demanding arbitration of such dispute, controversy or claim (an “Arbitration Demand Notice”). Delivery of an Escalation Notice by a Party shall be a prerequisite to delivery of an Arbitration Demand Notice by either Party, provided, however, that in the event that any Party shall deliver an Arbitration Demand Notice to another Party, such other Party may itself deliver an Arbitration Demand Notice to such first Party with respect to any related dispute, controversy or claim with respect to which the Applicable Deadline has not passed without the requirement of delivering an Escalation Notice. No Party may assert that the failure to resolve any matter during any prior discussions or negotiations, the course of conduct during such prior discussions or negotiations, or the failure to agree on a mutually acceptable time, agenda, location or procedures for a meeting is a prerequisite to an Arbitration Demand Notice under this Section 7.11(c). In the event that any Party delivers an Arbitration Demand Notice with respect to any dispute, controversy or claim that is the subject of any then pending arbitration proceeding or of a previously delivered Arbitration Demand Notice, all such disputes, controversies and claims shall be resolved in the arbitration proceeding for which an Arbitration Demand Notice was first delivered unless the arbitrators in their sole discretion determine that it is impracticable or otherwise inadvisable to do so.

(ii)         Any Arbitration Demand Notice may be given until the date that is two years after the later the occurrence of the act or event giving rise to the underlying claim or the date on which such act or event was, or should have been, in the exercise of reasonable due diligence, discovered by the Party asserting the claim (as applicable and as it may in a particular case be specifically extended by the Parties in writing, the “Applicable Deadline”). Any discussions, negotiations or mediations between the Parties pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise will not toll the Applicable Deadline unless expressly agreed in writing by the Parties. Each of the Parties agrees that if an Arbitration Demand Notice with respect to a dispute, controversy or claim is not given prior to the expiration of the Applicable Deadline, as between or among the Parties, such dispute, controversy or claim will be barred. Subject to Section 7.11(g)(ii) and Section 7.9, upon delivery of an Arbitration Demand Notice pursuant to Section 7.11(c)(i) prior to the Applicable Deadline, the dispute, controversy or claim, and all substantive and procedural issues related thereto, shall be decided by the sole arbitrator in accordance with this Section 7.11.

(d)          Arbitrator.

(i)          The Party delivering the Arbitration Demand Notice shall notify the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and the other Parties in writing describing in reasonable detail the nature of the dispute. Within 20 days of the date of the Arbitration Demand Notice, the Parties to the dispute shall select one sole arbitrator from the members of a panel of arbitrators of the AAA. The members of a panel of arbitrators of the AAA, and such sole arbitrator, shall be disinterested with respect to each of the Parties and shall be experienced in complex commercial arbitration with a substantial understanding of the oil and gas industry and master limited partnerships. In the event that the Parties are unable to agree on the selection of the sole arbitrator, the AAA shall select the sole arbitrator, within 45 days of the date of the Arbitration Demand Notice.

(ii)         The arbitrator will set a time for the hearing of the matter which will commence no later than 180 days after the date of appointment of the sole arbitrator and which hearing will be no longer than 30 days (unless in the judgment of the arbitrator the matter is unusually complex and sophisticated and thereby requires a longer time, in which event such hearing shall be no longer than 90 days). The final decision of such arbitrator will be rendered in writing to the Parties not later than 60 days after the last day of the hearing, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing.

(iii)        The place of any arbitration hereunder will be Dallas, Texas and the language of any arbitration hereunder will be English. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the arbitration hearing shall be conducted on consecutive days.

(e)          Hearings. Within the time period specified in Section 7.11(d)(ii), the matter shall be presented to the arbitrator at a hearing by means of written submissions of memoranda and verified witness statements, filed simultaneously, and responses, if necessary in the judgment of the arbitrator or both of the Parties. If the arbitrator deems it to be essential to a fair resolution of the dispute, live cross-examination or direct examination may be permitted, but is not generally contemplated to be necessary. The arbitrator shall actively manage the arbitration with a view to achieving a just, speedy and cost-effective resolution of the dispute, claim or controversy. The arbitrator may, in its discretion, set time and other limits on the presentation of each Party's case, its memoranda or other submissions, and may refuse to receive any proffered evidence, which the arbitrator, in its discretion, find to be cumulative, unnecessary, irrelevant or of low probative nature.
