Explanation of Responses: |
1. As previously disclosed in Blueknight Energy Partners, L.P.'s (the "Issuer") Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 25, 2010 (the "Form 8-K"), pursuant to the Global Transaction Agreement dated October 25, 2010 (the "Global Transaction Agreement"), by and among the Issuer, Blueknight Energy Partners G.P., L.L.C., the general partner of the Issuer (the "GP"), Blueknight Energy Holding, Inc.

The Global Transaction Agreement, and the transactions contemplated thereby, are described more fully in the Form 8-K. |
2. The Preferred Units have no expiration date and are convertible at any time, in whole or in part, on a one-for-one basis into Common Units representing limited partner interests of the Issuer ("Common Units") at the holder's election as set forth in the Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Issuer, dated September 14, 2011 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as Exhibit 3.1 to the Issuer's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 14, 2011. |
3. If not previously redeemed, the Convertible Debenture would have matured on December 31, 2011 and, on such date, all outstanding principal and any accrued and unpaid interest would have automatically converted into Preferred Units. The terms of the Convertible Debenture are described more fully in the Form 8-K. |
4. The number of Preferred Units issuable on conversion of the Convertible Debenture would have been an amount equal to (i) the sum of the outstanding principal and any accrued and unpaid interest being converted, divided by (ii) $6.50. |

If not otherwise redeemed, the Convertible Debenture was to mature on December 31, 2011 and, on such date, all outstanding principal and any accrued and unpaid interest were to automatically convert into Preferred Units. The terms of the Convertible Debenture are described more fully in the Form 8-K. |
10. The board of directors of Vitol Holding has voting and dispositive power over these securities. The board of directors of Vitol Holding consists of Richard J. Evans and Miguel A. Loya who may be deemed to have voting and dispositive power with respect to and beneficially own the shares held by Vitol Holding as a result of their position on the board of directors; provided, however, that neither of Messrs. Evans and Loya have voting or dispositive power over these shares in their respective individual capacity. Mr. Loya disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities held by Vitol Holding, except to the extent of Mr. Loya's pecuniary interest therein, and, pursuant to Rule 16a-1(a)(4) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Mr. Loya states that the inclusion of these securities in this report shall not be deemed an admission of beneficial ownership of all of the reported securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose. |
