(1)These arrangements were with a party who indirectly owns a portion of our limited partner interests. Due to the sale of such interests by that entity effective May 13, 2025, this party is no longer considered a related party as of that date. (2)Represents the amount of cumulative income allocated to certain of our subsidiaries by an affiliate, to whom our subsidiaries advance payments so that the affiliate may pay operating expenses on their behalf pursuant to their operating and maintenance agreements. The affiliate in turn temporarily invests such funds into interest and dividend earning deposit accounts, from which they allocated the historically earned income to our subsidiaries effective June 30, 2025. Prospectively, the affiliate will allocate such income to our subsidiaries in the same period the affiliate earns such interest and dividend income.
