(1) 
Upon vesting, one common unit is issued for each equity classified Phantom Unit that vests. Employees have the option of using a portion of their vested Phantom Units to satisfy any tax liability resulting from the vesting and as a result, the actual number of common units issued may be less than the number of Phantom Units that vest.
(2) 
Each Liability-classified Phantom Unit that vests is redeemed in cash for an amount equivalent to the closing market price of one of our common units on the vesting date, which was $10.15.
