The securities are directly held by HITE Hedge LP,HITE MLP LP,HITE Hedge QP LP, and HITE MLP Advantage LP (collectively, the &quot;HITE Funds&quot;), for which HITE Hedge Asset Management LLC is the investment adviser. Mr. Jampel serves as Managing Member of HITE Hedge Asset Management LLC.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">(Continued from footnote 1) Each of HITE Hedge Asset Management LLC and Mr. Jampel may be deemed to be the indirect beneficial owners of such Common Units held by the HITE Funds by virtue of their direct and indirect control of the HITE Funds.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">(continued from footnote 2) The reporting Persons are filing this report because each of the Reporting Persons is a member of a Section 13(g) group with HITE Hedge Asset Management LLC as disclosed in a Schedule 13G filed on behalf of the Reporting Persons on April 22, 2016. As of April 22, 2016, the members of this Section 13(g) group collectively owned more than 10% of the Issuer's outstanding Common Units. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the Common Units reported herein except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F4">The number of Common Units reported herein does not include an additional aggregate 204,074 common units HITE believes the Reporting Persons are entitled to receive pursuant to the terms of the Issuer's Amended and Restated Agreement of LImited Partnership, dated as of August 3, 2015. The Reporting Persons are in discussions with the Issuer about their entitlement to these Common Units.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F5">In addition to the Common Units reported herein,two other funds (HITE Hedge Offshore, Ltd., HITE MLP Caymans, Ltd.) for which HITE serves as investment adviser have exposure to 169,000 units (165,839 after the sales) through cash-settled equity swaps (the &quot;Equity Swaps&quot;) under which its profit will be based upon any increase in value in the common units and its loss will be based upon any decrease in the value of the common units over the term of the transactions. The Equity Swaps may only be settled in cash and do not give the Reporting Persons direct or indirect voting, investment or dispositive control over any common units and do not require the counterparty thereto to acquire, hold, vote or dispose of any securities of the Issuer. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons disclaim any beneficial ownership of any common units that may be referenced in the swap contracts or other securities or financial instruments that may be held from time to time by any counterparty to the contracts.</footnote>
