(f) The Underwriter shall have received certificates, dated the Closing Date, signed by (i) the President or any Vice President and (ii) a principal financial or accounting officer of Finance Corp. and of the General Partners confirming, as of the Closing Date, the matters set forth in paragraphs (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 6.

(vi) The statements in the Prospectus under the caption “Description of the Notes,” insofar as they constitute descriptions of the Note Indenture and the Notes or refer to statements of law or legal conclusions under state corporate or partnership law or federal law (except for the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Act and any state or municipal fire safety codes, as to which such counsel need not express any opinion), constitute fair summaries thereof in all material respects;

(xii) The Note Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Issuers and (assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee) constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each such person, enforceable against each such person in accordance with its terms, subject (x) to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and (y) as to enforceability, to general principles of equity, including principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity, and except to the extent that a waiver of rights under any usury laws may be unenforceable;

conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and (y) as to enforceability, to general principles of equity, including principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity, and except to the extent that a waiver of rights under any usury laws may be unenforceable; and

(xiv) To the knowledge of such counsel, there is no pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Partnership Entities or any of their property of a character required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement which is not adequately disclosed in the Prospectus, and to the knowledge of such counsel, there is no contract or other document of a character required to be described in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or to be filed as an exhibit thereto, which is not described or filed as required; and the statements in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2003 under the heading “Business - Government Regulation,” which are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and Prospectus, insofar as such statements summarize legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings discussed therein, are accurate and fair summaries of such legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings as of the filing date of the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2003, and to the knowledge of such counsel, such summaries are accurate and fair summaries as of the Closing Date in all material respects, except with respect to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Act and any state or municipal fire safety codes, as to which such counsel need not express any opinion.

Such counsel shall state that the Registration Statement was declared effective under the Act as of the date and time specified in such opinion and the Final Prospectus was filed with the Commission pursuant to the subparagraph of Rule 424(b) specified in such opinion on the date specified therein, and, to the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued, no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or threatened, and the Registration Statement as of its effective date and the Final Prospectus as of its date (other than the financial statements and notes thereto and related schedules, information about internal control over financial reporting and other financial data included therein, as to which such counsel need not express an opinion) complied as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act, the Trust Indenture Act and the Rules and Regulations; in addition, such counsel shall state that, in the course of the preparation of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, it participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the General Partners and Finance Corp., representatives of the independent public accountants for each of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners, representatives of the Underwriter and representatives of counsel to the Underwriter, at which conferences the contents of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and related matters, including the offer and sale of the Notes, were discussed, and that such counsel has no reason to believe that any part of the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, as of its effective date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or that the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, as of its issue date or as of the Closing Date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; it being understood that such counsel need express no opinion as to the financial statements and notes thereto and related schedules, information about internal control over financial reporting and other financial data contained in the Registration Statements or the Prospectus.

In rendering the opinion as aforesaid, such counsel may rely upon an opinion or opinions, each dated the Closing Date, of other counsel retained by them or any of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners as to laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or the States of New York, Pennsylvania and Delaware; provided that (1) each such local counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Underwriter and (2) such reliance is expressly authorized by each opinion so relied upon and a copy of each such opinion is delivered to the Underwriter and is, in form and substance, reasonably satisfactory to the Underwriter and its counsel.

In rendering such opinion, such counsel may (A) rely in respect of matters of fact upon certificates (original counterparts of which shall be furnished to you) of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners and of officers and employees of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners and upon information obtained from public officials, (B) state that their opinion is limited to federal laws, New York law, Pennsylvania law, the Delaware Act and the DGCL, (C) assume that all documents submitted to them as originals are authentic, that all copies submitted to them conform to the originals thereof, and that the signatures on all documents examined by such counsel are genuine, (D) state that they express no opinion with respect to the title of any of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners or any of their affiliates to any real or personal property transferred by or to them and (E) state that they express no opinion with respect to state or local taxes or tax statutes to which any of the limited partners of the Partnership or the Operating Partnerships may be subject.

(h) You shall have received an opinion dated as of the Closing Date of Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP, your counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to you, covering such matters as are customarily covered in such opinions.

(i) On the date as of which this Agreement is executed and delivered by the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners, and on the Closing Date, you shall have received letters substantially in the form previously approved by you, from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent public accountants.

(j) Prior to the Closing Date, the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners shall have furnished to you such further information, customary certificates and documents as you may reasonably request.

(k) The Issuers and the Trustee shall have entered into the Note Indenture and you shall have received counterparts, conformed as executed, thereof.

All opinions, certificates, letters and other documents required by this Section 6 to be delivered by the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners will be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to you. The Issuers will furnish you with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents as you shall reasonably request. Any certificate or document signed by any officer of any of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners and delivered to you or to your counsel, shall be deemed a representation and warranty by any of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners to you as to the statements made therein.

(a) The Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless (i) the Underwriter and (ii) each person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Underwriter (any of the persons referred to in this clause (ii) being hereinafter referred to as a “controlling person”) and (iii) the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of the Underwriter or any controlling person (any person referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) may hereinafter be referred to as an “Indemnified Person”) to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, actions and reasonable expenses (including without limitation and as incurred, reimbursement of all reasonable costs of investigating, preparing, pursuing or defending any claim or action, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to any Indemnified Person) directly or indirectly caused by, related to, based upon, arising out of or in connection with any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the

Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are caused by an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that is made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Issuers or the General Partner by or on behalf of the Underwriter expressly for use therein, it being understood that the only information heretofore furnished by or on behalf of the Underwriter consists of the information described as such in the second paragraph of subsection (c) below and provided, further, that with respect to any untrue statement or omission of material fact made in the Preliminary Prospectus, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7(a) shall not inure to the benefit of the Underwriter from whom the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability purchased the Notes concerned, to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Underwriter occurs under the circumstance where it shall have been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that (A) the Issuers had previously furnished copies of the Prospectus to the Underwriter, (B) delivery of the Prospectus was required by the Act to be made to such person, (C) the untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus and (D) there was not sent or given to such person, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such securities to such person, a copy of the Prospectus. The Issuers, the General Partners and the Operating Partnerships shall notify you promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any claim, proceeding (including any governmental investigation) or litigation in connection with the matters addressed by this Agreement which involves the Issuers, the General Partners, the Operating Partnerships or an Indemnified Person.

(b) In case any action or proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be brought or asserted against any of the Indemnified Persons with respect to which indemnity may be sought against the Issuers, the General Partners or the Operating Partnerships, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners in writing (provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Issuers, the General Partners or the Operating Partnerships of their obligations pursuant to this Agreement unless each of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners is foreclosed by reason of such failure from asserting a defense otherwise available to it). Such Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action, suit or proceeding and to participate in (but not control) the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person, rather than the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners, as the case may be, unless (i) the Partnership has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel or (iii) the named parties to any such action, suit or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Person and the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners, and such Indemnified Person shall have been advised by its counsel that representation of such Indemnified Person and the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners, as the case may be, by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct (whether or not such representation by the same counsel has been proposed) due to actual or potential differing interests between them (in which case the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action, suit or proceeding on behalf of such Indemnified Person). The Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners shall not, in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for the Indemnified Persons, which firm shall be designated by the Underwriter. The Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners shall be liable for any settlement of any such action or proceeding effected with the prior written consent of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners, and the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnified Person from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of any settlement of any action effected with the written consent of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second sentence of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding

effected without its written consent (unless such consent has been reasonably withheld) if (i) such settlement is entered into more than twenty business days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement (unless the right to such reimbursement shall have been previously disputed in good faith). The Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Person, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened action, claim, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes a release of such Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such action, claim, litigation or proceeding to at least the same extent as any release of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners obtained in connection with such settlement.

(c) The Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners, and their respective directors, officers, partners, employees or representatives and any person controlling (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners, and the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of each such person, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners to each of the Indemnified Persons, but only with respect to claims and actions based on information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriter to the Issuers and the General Partners expressly for use in the Prospectus.

The cover page of the Prospectus Supplement (regarding the terms of the offering by the Underwriter), and the third and fourth sentences of the third paragraph and the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting” in the Prospectus Supplement (concerning the secondary market making activities of the Underwriter, regarding over-allotment, stabilization and syndicate covering transactions by the Underwriter and concerning the Underwriter’s provision of services to the Issuers and their affiliates) constitute the only information heretofore furnished to the Issuers and the General Partners in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriter expressly for use in the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other hand from the offering of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering of the Notes (net of commissions but before deducting expenses) received by the Issuers and the total discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter bear to the total price of the Notes, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact related to information supplied by the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The indemnity set forth herein shall be in addition to any liability or obligation the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners may otherwise have to any Indemnified Person.

The Issuers, the Operating Partnerships, the General Partners and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or

by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, neither the Underwriter nor the related Indemnified Persons shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter with respect to the Notes exceeds the amount of any damages which the Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) The Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners hereby designate Corporation Service Company, 80 State Street, Albany, New York as their authorized agent upon whom process may be served in any action, suit or proceeding that may be instituted in any state or federal court in the State of New York by the Underwriter or any person controlling the Underwriter asserting a claim for indemnification or contribution under or pursuant to this Section 7, and the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners will accept the jurisdiction of such court in such action, and waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any defense based upon lack of personal jurisdiction or venue. A copy of any such process shall be sent or given to the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners at the address for notices specified in Section 9 hereof.

8. Effective Time of Agreement and Termination. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution hereof.

This Agreement may be terminated at any time on or prior to the Closing Date by you by notice to the Issuers if any of the following has occurred: (i) any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or other national or international or domestic calamity or crisis or material adverse change in the financial markets of the United States, or any other substantial national or international calamity or emergency if the effect of such outbreak, escalation, calamity, crisis, material adverse change or emergency would, in your judgment, make it impracticable or inadvisable to market the Notes or to enforce contracts for the sale of any of the Notes, in either case on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus, (ii) any suspension or limitation of trading generally in securities on the New York Stock Exchange or any setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange or market, (iii) the suspension of trading of any securities of the Partnership in any exchange or in the over-the-counter market, (iv) any declaration of a general moratorium by either federal or New York authorities, (v) the taking of any action by any federal or state government or agency in respect of its monetary or fiscal affairs that in your judgment has a material adverse effect on the financial markets in the United States, and would, in your judgment, make it impracticable or inadvisable to market any of the Notes or to enforce contracts for the sale of any of the Notes or (vi) the enactment, publication, decree or other promulgation of any federal or state statute, regulation, rule or order of any court or other federal or state governmental authority which, in your judgment, would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Issuers and the Operating Partnerships, taken as a whole.

The indemnities and contribution provisions and the other agreements, representations and warranties of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners, their respective officers and directors and of the Underwriter set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Notes, regardless of (i) any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Underwriter or by or on behalf of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners, the officers or directors of any of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners or controlling person of any of the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships or the General Partners, (ii) acceptance of the Notes and payment for them hereunder and (iii) termination of this Agreement.

Except as otherwise provided, this Agreement has been and is made solely for the benefit of and shall be binding upon the Issuers, the Operating Partnerships, the General Partners, the Underwriter, any Indemnified Person referred to herein and their respective successors and assigns, all as and to the extent provided in this Agreement, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. The term “successors and assigns” shall not include a purchaser of any of the Notes from the Underwriter merely because of such purchase.

9. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Underwriter, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Underwriter at c/o Credit Suisse First Boston LLC, Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10010-3629, Attention: John A.

Griggs; provided, however, that any notice to the Underwriter pursuant to Section 7 will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Underwriter.

10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

11. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, kindly sign and return to the Issuers one of the counterparts hereof, whereupon it will become a binding agreement among the Partnership Entities and the Underwriter in accordance with its terms.
