    <remarks>EMI has the right to appoint all of the directors of EnLink Midstream GP, LLC, the general partner of the Issuer and therefore may be deemed a director by deputization.  Additionally, EMI is part of a group that includes EnLink Midstream, LLC, EnLink Midstream Manager, LLC, Devon Energy Corporation (&quot;Devon&quot;) and certain of Devon's wholly-owned subsidiaries that collectively own more than 10% of the outstanding units of the Issuer.  EMI disclaims beneficial ownership of any securities other than those reported above.</remarks>
