On November 2, 2015, Mr. David Lumpkins was appointed to the Board, effective as of November 2, 2015.

Mr. Lumpkins will be compensated in accordance with the Partnership’s compensation policy for non-employee directors as described in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Lumpkins and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Lumpkins was appointed to the Board, and there are no relationships between Mr. Lumpkins and the Partnership that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
