Ladies and Gentlemen:

(the “Underwriter”) common units (the “Firm Units”) representing limited partner interests (the “Common Units”) in Access Midstream Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), in the amount detailed onSchedule II hereto. In addition, the Selling Unitholders propose to grant to the Underwriter the option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 Common Units (the “Additional Units”). The Firm Units and the Additional Units are hereinafter collectively sometimes referred to as the “Units.” The Units are described in the Prospectus which is referred to below.

Access Midstream Partners GP, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the general partner of the Partnership (the “General Partner”). The General Partner, the Partnership and Access MLP Operating, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership (“OLLC”), are collectively called the “Partnership Parties.” The entities identified as the Operating Subsidiaries onSchedule I are collectively referred to as the “Operating Subsidiaries.” The Partnership Parties and the Operating Subsidiaries are collectively called the “Partnership Entities.”

This is to confirm the agreement among the Partnership Parties, the Selling Unitholders and the Underwriter concerning the purchase of the Units from the Selling Unitholders by the Underwriter.

The Partnership Parties, the Selling Unitholders and the Underwriter agree as follows:

1.Sale and Purchase.

hereto, and the Underwriter agrees to purchase from the Selling Unitholders the Firm Units, in each case at a purchase price of $51.18 per Common Unit. The Partnership and the Selling Unitholders are advised by you that the Underwriter intends (i) to make a public offering of their respective portions of the Firm Units as soon after the effectiveness of this Agreement as in your judgment is advisable and (ii) initially to offer the Firm Units upon the terms set forth in the Prospectus.

(b) In addition, the Selling Unitholders hereby grant to the Underwriter the option (the “Option to Purchase Additional Units”) to purchase from each of the Selling Unitholders up to the number of Additional Units set forth opposite the name of such Selling Unitholder inSchedule II hereto, and upon the basis of the representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Underwriter shall have the right to purchase from the Selling Unitholders, all or a portion of the Additional Units. The purchase price of each Additional Unit shall be the same purchase price to be paid by the Underwriter for each Firm Unit; provided, however, that the amount paid by the Underwriter for any Additional Units shall be reduced by an amount per unit equal to any distributions declared by the Partnership and payable to the Selling Unitholders on the Firm Units but not payable on such Additional Units. The Option to Purchase Additional Units may be exercised by the Underwriter, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Prospectus (the “Option Period”), by written notice to the Selling Unitholders. Such notice shall set forth the aggregate number of Additional Units as to which the Option to Purchase Additional Units is being exercised and the date and time when the Additional Units are to be delivered (any such date and time being herein referred to as an “Option Delivery Date”);provided,however, that no Option Delivery Date shall be earlier than the Initial Delivery Date (as defined below) nor earlier than the second business day after the date on which the Option to Purchase Additional Units shall have been exercised (unless the subject Additional Units are to be purchased on the Initial Delivery Date) nor later than the fifth business day after the date on which the Option to Purchase Additional Units shall have been exercised.

2.Payment and Delivery. Payment of the purchase price for the Firm Units shall be made to the Selling Unitholders by Federal (same day) funds by wire transfer against delivery of the certificates for the Firm Units to you through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) for the account of the Underwriter. Such payment and delivery shall be made at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on December 9, 2013 (unless another time shall be agreed to by the Underwriter, the Selling Unitholders and the Partnership). The time at which such payment and delivery are to be made is hereinafter sometimes called the “Initial Delivery Date.” Electronic transfer of the Firm Units shall be made to you at the time of purchase in such names and in such denominations as you shall specify. The Option Delivery Date and the Initial Delivery Date are each referred to herein as a “Delivery Date.”

Payment of the purchase price for the Additional Units shall be made on the Option Delivery Date in the same manner and at the same office and time of day as the payment for the Firm Units. Electronic transfer of the Additional Units shall be made to you on the Option Delivery Date in such names and in such denominations as you shall specify.

The Partnership Parties, jointly and severally, agree to reimburse such indemnified person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified person in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such indemnified person is a party thereto) whether threatened or commenced and in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above as such expenses are incurred, except with respect to the Registration Statement or such Prospectus insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in, and in conformity with information concerning the Underwriter furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriter to the Partnership expressly for use in the Registration Statement or such Prospectus in connection with such information, which material fact was not included in such information and which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in the case of such Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(b) Each of the Selling Unitholders, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Underwriter and each Partnership Party, their respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and members, any person who controls the Underwriter or Partnership Party within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and any “affiliate” (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of the Underwriter or Partnership Party, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing persons, from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which jointly or severally, the Underwriter or any Partnership Party or any such person may incur under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information concerning such Selling Unitholder furnished in writing to the Partnership by or on behalf of such Selling Unitholder expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or in the Registration Statement as amended by any post-effective amendment thereof by the Partnership), which information consists solely of the Selling Unitholder Information or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in connection with such information, which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or necessary to make such information not misleading or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information concerning such Selling Unitholder furnished in writing to the Partnership by or on behalf of such Selling Unitholder expressly for use in, any Prospectus (the term Prospectus for the purpose of this Section 10(b) being deemed to include any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and any amendments or supplements to the foregoing) or in any “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act) of the Partnership or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in connection with such information, which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Selling Unitholders, severally and not jointly, agree to reimburse such indemnified person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified person in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such indemnified person is a party thereto) whether threatened or commenced and in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that each Selling Unitholder shall be liable with respect to the Registration Statement or such Prospectus only to the extent any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in, and in conformity with information concerning such Selling Unitholder furnished in writing to the Partnership by or on behalf of such Selling Unitholder expressly for use in the Registration Statement or such Prospectus in connection with such information, which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in the case of such Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The liability of each Selling Unitholder under the indemnity agreement contained in this paragraph shall be limited to an amount equal to the aggregate net proceeds received by such Selling Unitholder, after deducting underwriting fees and commissions but before deducting expenses, from the offering of the Units purchased under this Agreement.

(c) The Underwriter agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Partnership Party and Selling Unitholder and each of their respective directors and officers who signed the Registration Statement and any person who controls such Partnership Party or Selling Unitholder, as applicable, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing persons, from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which, jointly or severally, the Partnership Parties or any such person may incur under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information concerning the Underwriter furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriter to the Partnership expressly for use in, the Registration Statement (or in the Registration Statement as amended by any post-effective amendment thereof by the Partnership), or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Registration Statement in connection with such information, which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or was necessary to make such information not misleading or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information concerning the Underwriter furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriter to the Partnership expressly for use in, the any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in connection with such information, which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(d) If any action, suit or proceeding (each, a “Proceeding”) is brought against a person (an “indemnified party”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Partnership Parties, any Selling Unitholder or the Underwriter (as applicable, the “indemnifying party”) pursuant to subsection (a), (b) or (c), respectively, of this Section 10, such indemnified party shall promptly notify such indemnifying party in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and such indemnifying party shall assume the defense of such Proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party) and payment of all fees and expenses, whereupon the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 10 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation;provided,however, that the failure to so notify such indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability which such indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party or otherwise, except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure, but shall not relieve the indemnifying party from its obligation to provide reimbursement and contribution except to the extent so prejudiced. If such indemnified party shall have been advised by counsel that there are one or more defenses available to it that are in conflict with those available to the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party), the payment of all fees and expenses of such indemnified party’s counsel shall be borne by the indemnifying

party; provided, however, that such indemnifying party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such Proceeding. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent but, if settled with its written consent, such indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party or parties from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have assumed control of the defense as contemplated by the second sentence of this Section 10(d), then the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 business days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have fully reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such indemnified party shall have given the indemnifying party at least 30 days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include an admission of fault or culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is unavailable to an indemnified party under subsections (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 10 or insufficient to hold an indemnified party harmless in respect of any losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other hand from the offering of the Units 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 Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders on the one hand and of the Underwriter on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds received by the Selling Unitholders (net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) from the offering of the Units purchased under this Agreement, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Units, in each case as described in the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders on the one hand and of the Underwriter on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders on the one hand or by 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 amount paid

or payable by a party as a result of the losses, damages, expenses, liabilities and claims referred to in this subsection shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any Proceeding.

(f) The Partnership Parties, the Selling Unitholders and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriter were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in subsection (d) above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, (i) the Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Units underwritten by the Underwriter and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damage which the Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission and (ii) in no case shall any Selling Unitholder be required to contribute any amount in excess of the aggregate net proceeds received by such Selling Unitholder (after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting offering expenses), from the offering of the Units purchased under this Agreement. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(g) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 10 and the covenants, warranties and representations of the Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders contained in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriter and its partners, directors, officers, employees, agents or members or any person (including each partner, officer, director, employee or member of such person) who controls the Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and any affiliate of the Underwriter or by or on behalf of the Partnership Parties or the Selling Unitholders, their respective directors, employees or officers or any person who controls the Partnership Parties or Selling Unitholders within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the sale and delivery of the Units. Each Partnership Party, each Selling Unitholder and the Underwriter agree promptly to notify each other of the commencement of any Proceeding against it and, in the case of the Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders, against any of their respective officers, employees or directors in connection with the offering and sale of the Units, or in connection with the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

13.Governing Law; Construction.

16.No Fiduciary Relationship. The Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders hereby acknowledge that the Underwriter is acting solely as an underwriter in connection with the purchase and sale of the Units. The Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders further acknowledge that the Underwriter is acting pursuant to a contractual relationship created solely by this Agreement entered into on an arm’s length basis, and in no event do the parties intend that the Underwriter act or be responsible as a fiduciary to the Partnership Parties or the Selling Unitholders, their respective management, partners, members or creditors or any other person in connection with any activity that the Underwriter may undertake or have undertaken in furtherance of the purchase and sale of the Partnership’s securities, either before or after the date

hereof. The Underwriter hereby expressly disclaims any fiduciary or similar obligations to the Partnership Parties or the Selling Unitholders, either in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions, and the Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders hereby confirm their understanding and agreement to that effect. The Partnership Parties, the Selling Unitholders and the Underwriter agree that they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any such transactions and that any opinions or views expressed by the Underwriter to the Partnership Parties or the Selling Unitholders regarding such transactions, including, but not limited to, any opinions or views with respect to the price or market for the Partnership’s securities, do not constitute advice or recommendations to the Partnership Parties or the Selling Unitholders. The Partnership Parties, the Selling Unitholders and the Underwriter agree that the Underwriter is acting as principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Partnership Parties or the Selling Unitholders, and the Underwriter has not assumed any advisory responsibility in favor of the Partnership Parties or the Selling Unitholders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Partnership Parties or the Selling Unitholders on other matters). The Partnership Parties and the Selling Unitholders hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Partnership Parties or the Selling Unitholders may have against the Underwriter with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary, advisory or similar duty to the Partnership Parties or the Selling Unitholders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions.
