[REVERSE OF NOTE]

CHENIERE ENERGY PARTNERS, L.P.

5.625% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2026

This Note is one of a duly authorized series of the 5.625% Series Notes hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to the Indenture, to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Partnership and the Holders of the 5.625% Series Notes.

Interest.

The Partnership promises to pay interest in cash on the principal amount of this Note at the rate of 5.625% per annum until maturity and shall pay the Additional Interest, if any, payable pursuant to Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement referred to below.

The Partnership will pay interest and Additional Interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, or if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing April 1, 2019. Interest on the 5.625% Series Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid on the Notes, from September 11, 2018. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The Partnership shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy laws) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) and on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the same rate per annum, in each case to the extent lawful.

Method of Payment.

The Partnership shall pay interest on the 5.625% Series Notes (except Defaulted Interest) and Additional Interest, if any, to the persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business on March 15 and September 15 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for (“Defaulted Interest”) may be paid to the persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, or in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such 5.625% Series Notes may then be listed if such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee, as more fully provided in the Indenture. The Partnership shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of a Global Note (including principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depositary. Payments in respect of 5.625% Series Notes in definitive form (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made at the office or agency of the Partnership maintained for such purpose, which initially will be at the office of the Paying Agent and Registrar, or, at the option of the Partnership, payment of interest or Additional Interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders on the relevant record date at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders

A-1-1

maintained by the Registrar or at the option of the Holder, payment of interest on 5.625% Series Notes in definitive form will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to any account maintained in the United States, provided such Holder has requested such method of payment and provided timely wire transfer instructions to the Paying Agent. The Holder must surrender this Note to a Paying Agent to collect payment of principal.

Paying Agent and Registrar.

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Partnership may change any Paying Agent or Registrar at any time upon notice to the Trustee and the Holders. The Partnership may act as Paying Agent.

Indenture.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Partnership issued and to be issued in one or more series under the Indenture.

Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the 5.625% Series Notes include those stated in the Base Indenture, those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA, as in effect on the date of the Base Indenture, and those terms stated in the Second Supplemental Indenture. The 5.625% Series Notes are subject to all such terms (including the Guarantees set forth in Article X of the Base Indenture), and Holders of 5.625% Series Notes are referred to the Base Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. The 5.625% Series Notes are limited to an initial aggregate principal amount of $1,100,000,000; provided, however, that the authorized aggregate principal amount of such series may be increased from time to time as provided in the Second Supplemental Indenture.

Redemption.

At any time prior to October 1, 2021, the Partnership may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 5.625% Series Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price of 105.625% of the principal amount of the 5.625% Series Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date (subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), with the proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that:

(1)

at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the 5.625% Series Notes issued on the Issue Date (excluding 5.625% Series Notes held by the Partnership and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

(2)

the redemption occurs within 120 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

At any time prior to October 1, 2021, the Partnership may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the 5.625% Series Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of 5.625% Series Notes redeemed, plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding, the redemption date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

A-1-2

Except pursuant to the preceding two paragraphs, the 5.625% Series Notes will not be redeemable at the Partnership’s option prior to October 1, 2021. The Partnership is not prohibited, however, from acquiring the 5.625% Series Notes in market transactions by means other than a redemption, whether pursuant to a tender offer or otherwise.

On or after October 1, 2021, the Partnership may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the 5.625% Series Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the 5.625% Series Notes redeemed, to but excluding the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on October 1 of the years indicated below (subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date):


Year	Percentage
2021		102.813	%
2022		101.406	%
2023 and thereafter		100.000	%

5.625% Series Notes called for redemption become due on the redemption date. Notices of redemption will be mailed at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of the 5.625% Series Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. The notice of redemption for the 5.625% Series Notes will state, among other things, the amount of 5.625% Series Notes to be redeemed, the redemption date, the method of calculating the redemption price and each place that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of 5.625% Series Notes to be redeemed. Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on any 5.625% Series Notes that have been called for redemption on the redemption date. For purposes of determining the redemption price, the following definitions are applicable:

“Applicable Premium” means, with respect to any note on any redemption date, the greater of:

(1)

1.0% of the principal amount of such note; or

(2)

the excess of:

(a)

the present value at such redemption date of (i) the redemption price of such 5.625% Series Notes at October 1, 2021 (such redemption prices being set forth in the tables appearing above) plus (ii) all required remaining scheduled interest payments due on such note through October 1, 2021 (in each case excluding accrued but unpaid interest to but excluding the redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Yield as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over

A-1-3

(b)

the principal amount of the note.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the 5.625% Series Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the 5.625% Series Notes to be redeemed; provided, however, that if no maturity is within three months before or after the maturity date for such 5.625% Series Notes, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to such United States Treasury security will be determined and the treasury rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight line basis rounding to the nearest month.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (a) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for the redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (b) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“Independent Investment Banker” means J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and its successors or, if such firm is not willing and able to select the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Partnership.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and four additional primary U.S. government securities dealers (each, a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) selected by the Partnership; provided, however, that if such firm or any such successor, as the case may be, shall cease to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer, the Partnership will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date for the 5.625% Series Notes, an average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue for the 5.625% Series Notes to be redeemed (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

A-1-4

contain these yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity (computed as of the third business day immediately preceding such redemption date) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the applicable Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.

Repurchase of Notes at the Option of the Holders upon Change of Control Triggering Event and Asset Sale Triggering Event

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, each Holder shall have the right, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture, to require the Partnership to repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest, if any, due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture. In accordance with Section 4.09 of the Indenture, the Partnership will be required to offer to purchase Notes upon the occurrence of certain Asset Sale Triggering Events.

Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

The 5.625% Series Notes are to be issued in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. A Holder may register the transfer of, or exchange, 5.625% Series Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture.

Person Deemed Owners.

The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended or supplemented, and any existing Event of Default or compliance with any provision may be waived, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of each series affected. Without consent of any Holder of a Note, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture to, among other things, cure any ambiguity or omission, to correct any defect or inconsistency, or to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Note. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Note and any 5.625% Series Notes which may be issued in exchange or substitution herefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made upon this Note or such other 5.625% Series Notes.

10.

Additional Rights of Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes.

A-1-5

more registration rights agreements, if any, among the Partnership, the Subsidiary Guarantors, if any, and the other parties thereto, relating to rights given by the Partnership and the Subsidiary Guarantors, if any, to the purchasers of any Additional Notes (collectively, the “Registration Rights Agreement”). By such Holders’ acceptance of Restricted Global Notes or Restricted Definitive Notes, such Holder acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, including without limitation the obligations of the Holders with respect to indemnification of the Partnership and the Subsidiary Guarantors to the extent provided therein

11.

Defaults and Remedies.

Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default that will result in the principal amount of the 5.625% Series Notes, together with premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, becoming due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default. If any other Event of Default with respect to the 5.625% Series Notes occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 33 1/3% in aggregate principal amount of the 5.625% Series Notes then outstanding may declare the principal amount of all the 5.625% Series Notes, together with premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, if at any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding 5.625% Series Notes, by written notice to the Trustee, may rescind such declaration and annul its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court already rendered and if all Events of Default with respect to the 5.625% Series Notes, other than the nonpayment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest which has become due solely by such declaration acceleration, shall have been cured or shall have been waived. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Holders of 5.625% Series Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the 5.625% Series Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity or security satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the 5.625% Series Notes. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 5.625% Series Notes then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power.

12.

Trustee Dealings with Partnership.

The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Partnership or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Partnership or its Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee.

13.

Authentication.

This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.

14.

Abbreviations and Defined Terms.

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder of a Note or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (tenant in common), TEN ENT (tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (Custodian), and U/G/M/A (Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

A-1-6

15.

CUSIP Numbers.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Partnership has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the 5.625% Series Notes as a convenience to the Holders of the 5.625% Series Notes. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such number as printed on the 5.625% Series Notes and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

16.

Absolute Obligation.
