and Phoenix Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and jointly
owned subsidiary of P66 Company and P66 PDI ("Merger Sub"), Merger Sub merged
with and into the Partnership (the "Merger"). At the effective time of the
Merger (the "Effective Time"), the Partnership became an indirect, wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company.
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective
Time, each outstanding common unit representing a limited partner interest in
the Partnership (each, a "Common Unit"), other than Common Units owned by the
Company and its subsidiaries (each, a "Public Common Unit"), converted into the
right to receive 0.500 of a share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of
the Company (the "Common Stock" and the shares of Common Stock issued in the
Merger, the "Merger Consideration"). The General Partner's non-economic general
partner interest in the Partnership remained outstanding, and the General
Partner continued as the sole general partner of the Partnership.
In addition, pursuant to Amendment No. 1 to the Third Amended and Restated
Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (as amended, the "Third A&R
Partnership Agreement"), the outstanding Series A Preferred Units of the
Partnership were automatically converted into Common Units immediately prior to
the Merger in accordance with the terms of the Third A&R Partnership Agreement.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company issued approximately 41.8 million
shares of Common Stock to the holders of Public Common Units as Merger
Consideration, as described above.
The Merger Agreement is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Partnership's Current Report
on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on
October 27, 2021, which agreement is incorporated herein by reference. The
foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement has been included to provide investors
and security holders with information regarding the terms of the Merger

Merger Agreement. It is not intended to provide any other factual information
