(b)                              The information set forth in Items 7 through 11 of the cover pages hereto is incorporated herein by reference. To the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, each of the Covered Individuals listed in the table in Item 5(a) has sole voting power and dispositive power with respect to all of the Common Units reported for him or her in the table in Item 5(a).

 

(c)                                  Except as described in Item 3 above, as described elsewhere in this Schedule 13D and with respect to a gift of 133 Common Units of the Issuer made by Lewis B. Gardner on May 13, 2016, none of the Reporting Persons or, to the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, the Covered Individuals, has effected any transactions in the Common Units during the past 60 days.

 

(d)                                 The Reporting Persons have the right to receive distributions from, and the proceeds from the sale of, the respective Common Units reported by such persons on the cover page of this Schedule 13D and in this Item 5. Except for the foregoing and the cash distribution described in Item 6 below, no other person is known by the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of distributions from, or the proceeds from the sale of, Common Units beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons or, to the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, the Covered Individuals.

 

(e)                                  Not applicable.

 

Item 6.         Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 6 is hereby amended and supplemented by deleting the disclosure beneath the subheading “Cash Distributions” and replacing such disclosure in its entirety with the following:

 

The Issuer’s cash distribution policy requires it to pay cash distributions at an initial distribution rate of $0.35 per Common Unit per quarter ($1.40 per Common Unit on an annualized basis) to the extent the Issuer has sufficient cash from operations after establishment of cash reserves and payment of fees and expenses, including payments to its general partner and its affiliates. The Issuer calls this quarterly distribution amount the “minimum quarterly distribution,” and the Issuer’s ability to pay it is subject to various restrictions and other factors.

 

The Partnership Agreement requires the Issuer to distribute, at the end of each quarter, all of its cash on hand, less reserves established by the General Partner. The Issuer refers to this amount as “available cash.”

 

The Partnership Agreement requires that the Issuer distribute all of its available cash in the following manner:

 

· first, 100.0% to the General Partner and all unitholders, in accordance with their respective percentage interests, until the Issuer distributes for each outstanding Common Unit an amount equal to the minimum quarterly distribution for that quarter; and

 

· thereafter, in the manner described in the Partnership Agreement taking into account the General Partner’s incentive distribution rights.

 

11



 

If cash distributions to the unitholders exceed $0.4025 per unit in any quarter, the General Partner will receive, in addition to distributions in a percentage equal to its percentage interest, increasing percentages, up to 48%, of the cash the Issuer distributes in excess of that amount. These distributions are referred to as “incentive distributions.”
