At the closing of the Offering, OSG GP's 2% general partner interest will be converted to 1 general partner unit and the Issuer will issue to it 612,244 general partner units and OSG GP will receive incentive distribution rights ("IDRs"), which represent the right to receive an increasing percentage of quarterly distributions in excess of specified amounts.
