Important Notice
This presentation contains forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. In partic- ular, forward-looking statements include all statements that express forecasts, expecta- tions, plans, outlook, objectives and projections with respect to future matters, including, among other things, the expected financial performance of CPLP's business following the transaction, the conversion of CPLP to a corporation, CPLP's expectations or objectives regarding future distributions, and market and charter rate expectations. These forward- looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the stated or forecasted results to be materially different from those anticipated. For a discussion of factors that could materially affect the outcome of forward-looking statements and other risks and uncertainties, see "Risk Factors" in CPLP's annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on April 23 2024. Any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of CPLP speak only as of the date they are made. Unless required by law, CPLP expressly disclaims any obligation to update or revise any of these forward-looking statements, whether because of future events, new information, a change in its views or expectations, to conform them to actual results or otherwise. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
Non-GAAP Measures
This presentation contains non-GAAP measures, including Operating Surplus. Operating Surplus represents net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense, exchange differences on Bonds and cash and cash equivalents, change in fair value of derivatives, impairment, amortization / accretion of above / below market acquired charters and straight-line revenue adjustments. Operating Surplus is a quantitative measure used in the publicly traded partnership investment community to assist in evaluating a partnership's financial performance and ability to make quarterly cash distributions. Operating Surplus is not required by GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for net income, cash flow from operating activities and other operations or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. Our calculation of Operating Surplus may not be comparable to that reported by other companies.

Market Review
- Charter rates:
- After a period of historically high rates following the start of the Russia- Ukraine Conflict, rates are normalizing towards pre-war levels
- Warm weather and high gas storage levels in Europe and Asia have led to decreased demand for spot cargoes, causing spot rates to fall
- Term charter rates for 1-3 year period have softened and are standing at $85,000 per day
- Five-yearcharter rates are higher than shorter periods (1-3 years TC), indicating that the market is pricing in an anticipated tightening from 2026
- Market Dynamics:
- Global LNG imports remain strong in both Asia-Pacific and the Atlantic basin region, with China continuing to import at seasonal records
- Total gas in storage remains high with recent mild ambient temperature putting further downward pressure on gas demand, Europe has finished the winter period with near record levels of inventories
- Russian gas supply to the EU is now less than 2 million tons / month. No realistic likelihood for increased Russian exports in the near to medium term
- Tonne-mileshave been higher in Q1 this year versus last year with the Suez Canal closed and very limited use of the Panama Canal. Voyage distances are relatively high, and traded levels have also been high
- Fleet:
- The fleet grew by 10 ships in Q1; a slow start to what will be a new record year in deliveries
- Newbuilding Prices and Shipyard Capacity
- Newbuilding prices for LNG carriers remain high and are currently at ~$260+ million per vessel for the basic specification
