The ownership percentages are calculated based upon 61,248,662 Common Units outstanding, which equals the sum of (i) 56,149,912 Common Units outstanding as of March 31, 2019, as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2019, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 23, 2019, and (ii) 5,098,750 Common Units issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Units (as defined herein) beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
