(the "Issuer") through his ownership in KAFU Holdings, L.P., KAFU Holdings (QP), L.P., and KAFU Holdings II, L.P. (collectively, "KAFU"). Further the Reporting Person is the Chief Executive Officer of Kayne Anderson Capital Advisors, L.P. ("KACALP"), an SEC registered investment adviser and the managing member of KAFU. The Reporting Person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of all of the interests held by KAFU and KACALP as applicable. In connection with the initial public offering of the Issuer, the limited partnership agreement of AAP was amended and restated to provide that each limited partner of AAP, including KAFU and KACALP, will have the right at any time (without expiration) to immediately exchange (the "Exchange Right") its Class A units in AAP together with a like number of Class B shares and the GP Units, for a like number of Class A shares of the Issuer. The Exchange Right may be settled in cash at the option of the Issuer and, as a result the Reporting person may not be deemed to beneficially own any Class A shares reported herein. Nonetheless, the number of derivative securities included in the table above represents the number of Class B shares owned by KAFU and KACALP, that are potentially exchangeable for an equivalent number of Class A shares. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities held by KAFU and KACALP, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. The Reporting Person may have been deemed to beneficially own the AAP Units held by KAFU prior to the consummation of the initial public offering of the Issuer. The AAP Units, collectively with the Class B shares and the GP Units, constitute the derivative security as described herein. The reported transaction is an in-kind distribution to redeeming limited partners of KAFU. Such redemptions were made in-kind with Class A shares. Robert V. Sinnott 2016-01-05
