        <footnote id="F1">Each Restricted Phantom Unit (&quot;RPU&quot;) is the economic equivalent of one common unit representing a limited partner interest in BBEP (a &quot;common unit&quot;) which includes a distribution equivalent right that entitles the holder to cash distributions at the same rate payable to common unitholders on a quarterly basis.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">On each of December 31, 2010, December 31, 2011, and December 31, 2012, one-third of the RPU's will be settled for an equal number of common units.</footnote>
