(&quot;ONEOK&quot;), Otter Merger Sub LLC, and Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. (&quot;Magellan&quot;), each unit of Magellan (the &quot;Magellan Unit&quot;) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of the merger became effective (the &quot;Effective Time&quot;), was converted into the right to receive 0.667 shares of ONEOK common stock (the &quot;ONEOK Common Stock&quot;). On September 25, 2023, the closing price of one share of ONEOK common stock was $66.54.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each award of phantom units of Magellan (&quot;Magellan Award&quot;) based solely on the passage of time that was outstanding at the Effective Time was assumed by ONEOK and converted, on the same terms and conditions of such Magellan Award, into a restricted stock unit award of ONEOK equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Magellan Units underlying the Magellan Award by (y) the Equity Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and rounded up or down to the nearest whole share of ONEOK Common Stock. Restricted stock units are convertible into Issuer common stock on a 1-for-1 ratio.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">The phantom stock becomes payable in cash or common units upon the reporting person's termination of service as a director in accordance with the terms of the Director Deferred Compensation Plan.</footnote>
