to their acquisition by the Partnership on March 17, 2010. Results for the Alexander Spirit,
Hamilton Spirit and Bermuda Spirit for the periods prior to their acquisition by the
Partnership when they were owned and operated by Teekay are referred to as the Dropdown

(ii) | Net voyage revenues represents voyage revenues less voyage expenses, which comprise all
expenses relating to certain voyages, including bunker fuel expenses, port fees, canal tolls
and brokerage commissions. Net voyage revenues is a non-GAAP financial measure used by
certain investors to measure the financial performance of shipping companies. Please see the

(iii) | Cash flow from vessel operations represents income from vessel operations before (a)

operations, (c) adjusting for direct financing leases to a cash basis, (d) adjusting for the
effect of the Toledo Spirit derivative contract and (e) gain on sale of vessel and equipment.
However, the Partnerships cash flow from vessel operations does not include the
Partnerships equity accounted investees cash flow from vessel operations. Cash flow from
vessel operations is included because certain investors use this data to measure a companys
financial performance. Cash flow from vessel operations is not required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States and should not be considered as an
alternative to net income (loss) or any other indicator of the Partnerships performance
required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. |
