(7) Fair Value Measurements:

The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions (inputs) that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable, and valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Accordingly, the FASB’s ASC establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework that ranks the quality and reliability of information used to determine fair values. The hierarchy is associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring fair value and defines three levels of inputs to the fair value measurement process—quoted prices are the most reliable valuation inputs, whereas model values that include inputs based on unobservable data are the least reliable. Each fair value measurement must be assigned to a level corresponding to the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The three broad levels of inputs defined by the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The table below presents the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011, December 31, 2010, and ~~June 27,~~September 26, 2010 on a recurring basis:

Fair values of the interest rate, cross-currency and foreign currency swap agreements are determined using significant inputs, including the LIBOR and foreign currency forward curves, that are considered Level 2 observable market inputs. In addition, the Partnership considered the effect of its credit and non-performance risk on the fair values provided, and recognized an adjustment increasing the net derivative liability by approximately $~~1.4~~1.2 million as of ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011. The Partnership monitors the credit and

A relief-from-royalty model is used to determine whether the fair value of trade-names exceeds their carrying amount. The fair value of the trade-names is determined as the present value of fees avoided by owning the respective trade-name.

In 2010, the Partnership concluded based on operating results, as well as updated forecasts, that a review of the carrying value of long-lived assets at California's Great America was warranted. After performing its review, the Partnership determined that a portion of the park's fixed assets, the majority of which were originally recorded with the PPI acquisition, were impaired. As a result, it recognized $62.0 million of fixed-asset impairment during 2010.

After completing its 2010 annual review of indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment, the Partnership concluded that a portion of trade-names originally recorded with the PPI acquisition were impaired. As a result, the Partnership recognized approximately $2.3 million of trade-name impairment during 2010.

The fair value of term debt at ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 was approximately $~~1,176.0~~1,188.2 million based on borrowing rates currently available to the Partnership on long-term debt with similar terms and average maturities. The fair value on its notes at ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 was approximately $~~372.7~~379.3 million based on borrowing rates available as of that date to the Partnership on notes with similar terms and maturities.

(9) Income and Partnership Taxes:

Under the applicable accounting rules, income taxes are recognized for the amount of taxes payable by the Partnership’s corporate subsidiaries for the current year and for the impact of deferred tax assets and liabilities, which represent future tax consequences of events that have been recognized differently in the financial statements than for tax purposes. The income tax provision (benefit) for interim periods is determined by applying an estimated annual effective tax rate to the quarterly income (loss) of the Partnership’s corporate subsidiaries. For 2011, the estimated annual effective rate includes the effect of an anticipated adjustment to the valuation allowance that relates to foreign tax credit carry-forwards arising from the corporate subsidiaries. The amount of this adjustment has a disproportionate impact on the annual effective tax rate that results in a significant variation in the customary relationship between the provision for taxes and income before taxes in interim periods. In addition to income taxes on its corporate subsidiaries, the Partnership pays a publicly traded partnership tax (PTP tax) on partnership-level gross income (net revenues less cost of food, merchandise and games). As such, the Partnership’s total provision (benefit) for taxes includes amounts for both the PTP tax and for income taxes on its corporate subsidiaries.

(10) Contingencies:

The Partnership is party to a lawsuit with its largest unitholder that alleges, among other things, that the General Partner breached the terms of the Fifth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”) by indicating that unitholders may lack the right to nominate candidates, or to solicit proxies in support of new candidates, for election to the board of directors of the General Partner. The Partnership has filed an answer denying the allegations as set forth in the complaint. The Partnership is also party to a lawsuit with its largest unitholder seeking declaratory and injunctive relief directing the Partnership to schedule a special meeting of unitholders to consider, among other things, a proposal to remove CFMI as the general partner of Cedar Fair and to amend the Partnership Agreement to allow unitholders to nominate directors for election to the board of directors of the general partner. The lawsuit was initiated in response to the Partnership's denial of a request for a special meeting on the grounds that the request did not comply with the requirements set forth in the Partnership Agreement.The Partnership has not yet filed an answer, and the case is still pending.

The Partnership is also a party to a number of lawsuits arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, none of these matters will have a material effect in the aggregate on the Partnership's financial ~~statements.~~

~~In 2009, the Partnership agreed to a~~ ~~$9.0 million~~ ~~settlement of a California class-action lawsuit. The settlement, which was paid in 2010, was recognized as a charge in “Operating expenses” in the consolidated statement~~position, results of operations ~~for the twelve months ended June 27, 2010.~~or liquidity.

(11) Pending sale of California's Great America:

On September 16, 2011, the Partnership and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Cedar Fair Southwest Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Southwest”) and Magnum Management Corporation, an Ohio corporation (“Magnum”), entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with JMA Ventures, LLC, a California limited liability company (“JMA”), pursuant to which JMA will acquire the assets of California’s Great America for a purchase price of $70 million. Under the terms of the Agreement, JMA has the right to terminate the transaction for any reason within 60 days after the date of execution. The transaction is still subject to the approval of the City of Santa Clara, California, as well as other closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals. The transaction is anticipated to close by the end of the fourth quarter of 2011.

(12) Termination of Agreement with Private Equity Firm:

On April 6, 2010, the Partnership and the affiliates of Apollo Global Management (Apollo) mutually terminated the merger agreement originally entered into on December 16, 2009. Consistent with the terms of the agreement, the Partnership paid Apollo $6.5 million to reimburse them for certain expenses incurred in connection with the transaction. In addition, both parties released each other from all obligations with respect to the proposed merger transaction, as well as from any claims arising out of or relating to the merger agreement. The $6.5 million paid to Apollo in April was recognized as a charge to earnings in “Selling, general and administrative” in the second quarter of 2010. The Partnership incurred approximately $10.4 million in costs associated with the terminated merger during 2010, and a total of $16.0 million of costs since the merger was initially announced.

~~The Partnership remains an independent public company and its units continue to be listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “FUN.”~~

~~(12)~~(13) Consolidating Financial Information of Guarantors and Issuers:

Cedar Fair, L.P., Canada's Wonderland Company ("Cedar Canada"), and Magnum Management Corporation ("Magnum") are the co-issuers of the Partnership's 9.125% notes (see Note 5). The notes have been fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, by each 100% owned subsidiary of Cedar Fair (other than Cedar Canada and Magnum) that guarantees the Partnership's senior secured credit facilities. There are no non-guarantor subsidiaries.

Table of Contents

The following consolidating schedules present condensed financial information for Cedar Fair, L.P., Cedar Canada, and Magnum, the co-issuers, and each 100% owned subsidiary of Cedar Fair (other than Cedar Canada and Magnum), the guarantors (on a combined basis), as of ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011, December 31, 2010, and ~~June 27,~~September 26, 2010 and for the periods ended ~~June~~September 25, 2011 and September 26, ~~2011 and June 27, 2010.~~2010. In lieu of providing separate unaudited financial statements for the guarantor subsidiaries, we have included the accompanying consolidating condensed financial statements.

Since Cedar Fair, L.P., Cedar Canada and Magnum are co-issuers of the notes and co-borrowers under the Amended 2010 Credit Agreement, all outstanding debt has been equally reflected within each co-issuer's ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 ~~and~~, December 31, 2010 and September 26, 2010 balance sheets in the accompanying consolidating condensed financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Business Overview:

We generate our revenues primarily from sales of (1) admission to our parks, (2) food, merchandise and games inside our parks, and (3) hotel rooms, food and other attractions outside our parks. Our principal costs and expenses, which include salaries and wages, advertising, maintenance, operating supplies, utilities and insurance, are relatively fixed and do not vary significantly with attendance.

Each of our properties is run by a park general manager and operates autonomously. Management reviews operating results, evaluates performance and makes operating decisions, including the allocation of resources, on a property-by-property basis. In order to better facilitate discussion of trends in attendance and guest per capita spending than would be possible on a consolidated basis, our eleven amusement parks and six separately gated water parks have been grouped into regional designations. The northern region, which is the largest, includes Cedar Point and the adjacent Soak City water park, Kings Island, Canada's Wonderland, Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom, Valleyfair, Geauga Lake's Wildwater Kingdom, Michigan's Adventure and the Castaway Bay Indoor Waterpark Resort in Sandusky, Ohio. The southern region includes Kings Dominion, Carowinds, Worlds of Fun and Oceans of Fun. Finally, our western region includes Knott's Berry Farm, California's Great America and the Soak City water parks located in Palm Springs, San Diego and adjacent to Knott's Berry Farm. This region also includes the management contract with Gilroy Gardens Family Theme Park in Gilroy, California.

~~Aside from~~Other than attendance and guest per capita statistics, discrete financial information and operating results are not prepared at the regional level, but rather at the individual park level for use by the CEO, who is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), as well as by the interim co-principal financial officers, the park general managers, and ~~two~~the COO and an executive vice ~~presidents,~~president, who report directly to the CEO and to whom our park general managers report.

Critical Accounting Policies:

This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions during the normal course of business that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Management believes that judgment and estimates related to the following critical accounting policies could materially affect our consolidated financial statements:

•Property and Equipment

•Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

•Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

•Self-Insurance Reserves

•Derivative Financial Instruments

•Revenue Recognition

In the ~~second~~third quarter of 2011, there were no changes in the above critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Adjusted EBITDA:

We believe that ~~adjusted~~Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, other non-cash items, and adjustments as defined in the Amended 2010 Credit Agreement) is a meaningful measure of park-level operating profitability because we use it for measuring returns on capital investments, evaluating potential acquisitions, determining awards under incentive compensation plans, and calculating compliance with certain loan covenants. Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the discussion of results of operations that follows as a supplemental measure of our operating results and is not intended to be a substitute for operating income, net income or cash flows from operating activities as defined under generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, ~~adjusted~~Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

The table below sets forth a reconciliation of ~~adjusted~~Adjusted EBITDA to net income for the ~~three, six,~~three-, nine-, and twelve-month periods ended ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 and ~~June 27,~~September 26, 2010.

Net revenues for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 increased ~~$8.5~~$35.7 million to ~~$311.4~~$883.6 million from ~~$302.9~~$847.9 million during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 27,~~September 26, 2010. The 4% increase in revenues reflects ana 2% increase ~~of 65,000 visits~~ in combined attendance (341,000 visits) through the first ~~six~~nine months of 2011 when compared with the same period a year ago, ~~largely~~ due primarily to an increase in season-pass ~~visits (up more than 370,000 visits year-over-year).~~visits. The ~~increase~~growth in ~~season pass~~season-pass visits was the ~~direct~~ result of an increased marketing focus toward season passes at several of our parks, resulting in a significant increase in the number of season passes sold, particularly in the northern and western ~~region.~~regions.

The increase in revenues also reflects a 1%2%, or ~~$0.42,~~$0.80, increase in average in-park guest per capita spending during the first ~~six~~nine months of the year when compared with the first ~~six~~nine months of 2010, and a 3%6%, or ~~$1.2~~$5.4 million, increase in out-of-park revenues from the sale of hotel rooms, food, merchandise and other complementary activities located outside of the park gates. In-park guest per capita spending represents the amount spent per attendee to gain admission to ~~a park~~our parks plus all amounts spent while inside the park gates. For this year's ~~six-month~~nine-month period, average in-park per capita spending increased ~~in all~~across the northern and southern regions, with the northern regions having the largest gain when compared to last year's first ~~six months.~~nine months, being offset by a slight decline in the western region. The 6% increase in out-of-park revenues primarily reflects improved operating results at our resort properties in 2011, which were driven by increased occupancy rates and higher average-daily-room rates. In addition, the increase in revenues for the first ~~six~~nine months of the year reflects the favorable impact of exchange rates and the weakening U.S. dollar on our Canadian operations ($~~1.8~~7.5 million) during the period.

For the ~~six-month~~nine-month period in 2011, operating costs and expenses increased 1%4%, or ~~$3.1~~$18.9 million, to ~~$279.5~~$541.7 million from ~~$276.4~~$522.8 million for the same period in ~~2010,~~2010. This was the net result of a ~~$1.0~~$4.2 million increase in cost of goods sold and a ~~$6.4~~$15.5 million increase in operating expenses, ~~and~~offset somewhat by a ~~$4.3~~$0.8 million decrease in selling, general and administrative costs. The 3%5% increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable to ~~timing differences through the first half~~$7.7 million of ~~the year compared to last year in maintenance costs ($2.6 million unfavorable) and operating supplies ($1.6 million unfavorable), as well as~~ higher wage costs, ~~($1.7 million).~~$3.2 million of higher maintenance costs and $1.9 million of higher operating supply costs. The cost of operating supplies has trended up between years primarily as the direct result of the increase in attendance. The increase in wages is largely the result of increased seasonal ~~staffing levels versus seasonal staffing levels during~~labor hours through the first ~~half~~nine months of ~~2010.~~2011 compared to 2010, as a result of expanded park operating hours at several parks, additional attractions and guest services, and the overall effect of increased attendance. The decrease in selling, general and administrative costs in the period principally reflects the impact of costs from the terminated merger with Apollo during the first ~~half~~nine months of 2010 ($~~10.5~~10.8 million), offset by legal and professional costs incurred induring the ~~current period~~first nine months of 2011 ($~~5.3~~6.1 million), including litigation expenses and costs for SEC compliance matters related to Special Meeting requests. ~~In addition,~~Selling, general and administrative costs in the period were also negatively affected by a $3.1 million increase in our long-term executive compensation plans resulting in large part from the increase in the market price of our units during the period. The overall increase in costs and expenses ~~reflects~~

discussed above reflect the negative impact of exchange rates on our Canadian operations ($~~1.4~~2.9 million) during the first ~~half~~nine months of the year.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the period decreased ~~$1.3~~$2.5 million, ~~due in large part to~~as a result of the impairment charge taken on the fixed assets of California's Great America at the end of 2010. For the ~~six-month~~nine-month period of 2011, the loss on impairment/

~~Table of Contents~~

retirement of fixed assets was ~~$0.2~~$1.1 million, reflecting the retirement of fixed assets in the normal course of business at ~~two~~most of our properties. During the second quarter of 2010, we recognized a $1.4 million non-cash charge for the impairment of trade-names originally recorded at the time of the PPI acquisition. After depreciation, amortization, loss on impairment of the trade-names, loss on impairment / retirement of fixed assets, and all other non-cash costs, ~~the~~ operating ~~loss~~income for the period ~~decreased $7.9~~increased $19.9 million, or 9%, to ~~$14.9~~$231.7 million infor the ~~first half~~nine-month period ending September 25, 2011 compared to operating income of ~~2011 from an operating loss of $22.8~~$211.8 million infor the ~~first half of~~nine-month period ending September 26, 2010.

As a result of the July 2010 refinancing of our debt, as well as the February 2011 amendment to our credit agreement (as further discussed in the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section), interest-rate spreads, and to a lesser extent long-term borrowings, were higher during the first ~~six~~nine months of 2011 compared with the same period in 2010, causing an increase in interest expense. Based primarily on higher interest-rate spreads ~~and~~as well as somewhat higher long-term borrowings during the first half of 2011, interest expense for the ~~six-month~~current-year nine-month period ~~in 2011~~ increased ~~$20.9~~$20.8 million to ~~$83.3~~$124.7 million compared with ~~$62.4~~$103.9 million for the same period ~~a year ago.~~in 2010.

The net effect of our swaps decreased ~~$9.1~~$16.4 million between the ~~six month~~nine-month periods, resulting in a non-cash ~~charge~~benefit to earnings of ~~$0.5~~$3.5 million for ~~this year's~~the first ~~half, as compared with~~nine months of 2011, which compares to a ~~$9.6~~$12.9 million non-cash charge to earnings ~~in last year's~~the first ~~half.~~nine months of 2010. The difference reflects the regularly scheduled amortization of amounts in Accumulated ~~other comprehensive income~~Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI") related to the swaps, which ~~were largely~~was offset by gains from marking the ineffective and de-designated swaps to market and foreign currency gains related to the U.S.-dollar denominated Canadian term loan in the current period. During the current ~~year-to-date~~nine-month period, we also recognized a ~~$3.8~~$14.7 million net ~~benefit~~charge to earnings for unrealized/realized foreign currency gains and losses, which included a ~~$4.1~~$13.2 million unrealized foreign currency ~~gain~~loss on the U.S.-dollar denominated notes issued in July 2010 and held at our Canadian property.

During the first ~~half~~nine months of 2011, a ~~benefit~~provision for taxes of ~~$15.8~~$22.3 million was recorded to account for publicly traded partnership (“PTP”) taxes and the tax attributes of our corporate subsidiaries. This compares with a ~~$50.6~~$37.4 million ~~benefit~~provision for taxes for the same ~~six-month~~nine-month period in 2010. The year-over-year variation in the tax ~~benefit~~provision recorded through the first ~~six~~nine months of the year is primarily due to a lower estimated annual effective tax rate for the 2011 year, which was impacted by lower expected foreign taxes for 2011 and the related favorable adjustment to the foreign tax credit valuation allowance. Actual cash taxes paid or payable are estimated to be between ~~$8-10~~$8 million and $10 million for the 2011 calendar year.

After interest expense, and the ~~benefit~~provision for taxes, ~~the~~ net ~~loss~~income for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 totaled ~~$80.0~~$72.7 million, or ~~$1.45~~$1.30 per diluted limited partner unit, compared with a net ~~loss~~income of ~~$44.1~~$31.6 million, or ~~$0.80~~$0.57 per diluted limited partner unit, for the ~~same period a year ago.~~nine months ended September 26, 2010.

For the ~~six-month~~nine-month period, ~~adjusted~~Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Amended 2010 Credit Agreement), which ~~management believes~~we believe is a meaningful measure of the company's park-level operating results, ~~decreased $2.8~~increased $7.1 million to ~~$36.7~~$346.4 million compared with ~~$39.5~~$339.3 million during the same period a year ago. The ~~decrease~~increase in ~~adjusted~~Adjusted EBITDA was due to the incremental net revenues resulting from the increases in combined attendance, average guest per capita spending and out-of-park revenues. These gains were offset somewhat by incremental operating costs associated with the increase in attendance. For the period, Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenues) declined by 80 basis points to 39.2% from 40.0%.

For the quarter ended ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011, net revenues increased 3%5%, or ~~$8.9~~$27.3 million, to ~~$284.5~~$572.3 million from ~~$275.6~~$545.0 million in 2010. This increase reflects a 1%2% increase in combined attendance (276,000 visits) , a ~~4%, or $1.0 million, increase in out-of-park revenues, and a 1%~~3% increase in average in-park per capita ~~spending.~~spending, and an 8% ($4.3 million) increase in out-of-park revenues, including from our resort hotels. As mentioned in the ~~six-month~~nine-month discussion above, the increases in attendance and revenue were primarily due to improved season-pass sales and an increase in season-pass ~~sales and~~ visits during the third quarter ~~particularly~~of 2011 across all regions. In addition, revenues from our resort properties increased in the current-year period on higher occupancy rates and average-daily-room rates. The increase in revenues for the third quarter of 2011 also reflects the favorable impact of exchange rates and the weakening U.S. dollar on our ~~western region.~~Canadian operations ($5.7 million) during the period.

Costs and expenses for the quarter ~~decreased 2%~~increased 6%, or ~~$3.1~~$15.8 million, to ~~$189.3~~$262.2 million from ~~$192.4~~$246.4 million in the ~~first~~third quarter of 2010, the net result of a ~~$0.8~~$3.2 million increase in cost of goods sold, a ~~$4.0~~$9.1 million increase in operating expenses and a ~~$7.9~~$3.5 million ~~decrease~~increase in selling, general and administrative costs. The 3%6% increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable to ~~timing differences during the current quarter compared to last year~~$4.8 million of higher wage costs, as well as minor increases in ~~maintenance costs ($1.2 million unfavorable) and~~ operating supplies ($0.3 ~~million unfavorable)~~million), ~~as well as higher wage~~utility costs ($~~1.2~~0.8 million) and insurance costs ($0.6 million). The cost of operating supplies in the quarter has trended up between years primarily as the direct result of the increase in attendance. The increase in wages is largely the result of increased seasonal ~~staffing levels versus seasonal staffing levels~~labor hours during the ~~second~~third quarter of ~~2010.~~2011 compared to 2010, as a result of expanded park operating hours at several parks, additional attractions and guest services, and the overall effect of increased attendance. The ~~decrease~~increase in selling, general and administrative costs in the quarter reflects the impact of ~~costs from the terminated Apollo merger ($6.4 million) and our debt refinancing ($2.5 million) incurred during the second quarter of 2010 ($6.4 million), offset by~~ legal and professional costs incurred during the ~~second~~third quarter of 2011 ($~~0.8~~0.6 million), including litigation expenses and costs for SEC compliance matters related to Special Meeting ~~requests. In addition,~~requests, as well as the effect of a $2.5 million credit recognized in the third quarter of 2010 related to debt refinancing efforts. The overall increase in costs and expenses discussed above reflects the negative impact of exchange rates on our Canadian operations ($~~1.0~~1.6 million) during the ~~first half of the year.~~current quarter.

Interest expense for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2011 was ~~$42.2~~$41.4 million, representing a ~~$9.4~~$0.1 million ~~increase~~decrease from the interest expense for the ~~second~~third quarter of ~~2010. As mentioned in the six month discussion above,~~2010, as our interest rates and long-term borrowings decreased slightly as a result of the ~~July 2010 refinancing of our debt, as well as the~~ February 2011 ~~amendment to our credit agreement, interest rates and long-term borrowings were higher during the second quarter of 2011 compared with the same period in 2010, causing an increase in interest expense.~~refinancing.

During the ~~second~~third quarter of 2011, the net effect of our swaps decreased ~~$3.5~~$7.3 million ~~resulting in~~to a non-cash benefit to earnings of ~~$1.4~~$4.0 million, ~~in the second quarter,~~ reflecting the regularly scheduled amortization of amounts in ~~Accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI")~~AOCI related to ~~the~~interest rate swaps, as well as gains from marking the ineffective and de-designated swaps to market and foreign currency gains related to the U.S.-dollar denominated Canadian term loan in the current period. During the third quarter of 2011, ~~second quarter,~~ we also recognized a ~~$3.0~~$18.5 million net charge to earnings for unrealized/realized foreign currency gains and losses, ~~$2.8~~$17.3 million of which represents an unrealized foreign currency loss on the U.S.-dollar denominated notes issued in July 2010 and held at our Canadian property.

During the quarter, a provision for taxes of ~~$3.8~~$38.2 million was recorded to account for PTP taxes and the tax attributes of our corporate subsidiaries, compared to a provision for taxes of ~~$7.2~~$88.0 million in the same period a year ago. The variation in the tax provision ~~(benefit)~~ recorded between periods is due primarily to the lower estimated annual effective tax rate for the 2011 year as discussed

~~Table of Contents~~

in the ~~six~~nine month section above.

After interest expense and the provision for taxes, net income for the quarter totaled ~~$4.7~~$152.7 million, or ~~$0.08~~$2.74 per diluted limited partner unit, compared with a net ~~loss~~income of ~~$4.2~~$75.7 million, or ~~$0.08~~$1.36 per diluted limited partner unit, for the ~~second~~third quarter a year ago.

For the ~~current~~third quarter ~~adjusted~~of 2011, Adjusted EBITDA increased 4%3% to ~~$95.9~~$309.7 million from ~~$92.1~~$299.7 million in 2010, ~~while our adjusted EBITDA margin (adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenues) increased 30 basis points to 33.7% compared to 33.4%. The $3.8 million increase in adjusted EBITDA was~~due primarily ~~due~~ to the incremental net revenues resulting from the increases in combined attendance, average guest per capita spending and out-of-park revenues. ~~Partially offsetting these~~These gains were partially offset by higher park-level operating costs during the ~~period.~~quarter. For the period, Adjusted EBITDA margin (adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenues) declined by 90 basis points to 54.1% from 55.0%. Consistent with our nine-month results, the slight margin compression is primarily the result of a shift in the mix of operating profit during the third quarter of 2011 toward our lower margin parks.

Net revenues for the twelve months ended ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011, were ~~$986.0~~$1,013.3 million compared with ~~$928.4~~$953.5 million for the twelve months ended ~~June 27, 2010.~~September 26, 2010. The increase of ~~$57.6~~$59.8 million in net revenues reflects a ~~6%, or 1.2 million-visit,~~4% (976,000 visits) increase in combined attendance, a 6%5%, ~~or $6.4 million,~~($5.9 million) increase in out-of-park revenues, ~~including our resort hotels,~~ and a ~~less than 1%, or $0.11,~~2% ($0.68) increase in average in-park guest per capita spending. The increase in out-of-park revenues is primarily the result of increased revenues at our resort properties, driven by higher occupancy rates and average-daily-room rates. The improved attendance for the current twelve-month period relative to the prior ~~twelve month~~twelve-month period reflects strong attendance figures in the ~~second half~~fourth quarter of ~~the~~ 2010 ~~season~~ and ~~the first half~~third quarter of 2011, largely due to increases in season passes sold and season-pass ~~visits, particularly at our parks in the southern and western regions.~~visits. In addition, attendance in the trailing twelve months ended ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 benefited from ~~an increase in group sales business as many of our parks saw the return of numerous bookings that were lost in 2009, as well as~~ favorable weather conditions throughout much of the ~~second half~~fourth quarter of 2010 ~~and the first half of 2011~~ when compared to the ~~second half~~fourth quarter of ~~2009 and the first half of 2010.~~2009. Revenues for the period also benefited from the impact of currency exchange rates and the weakening U.S. dollar on our Canadian operations (approximately ~~$6.5~~$7.9 million).

When comparing the two twelve-month periods, costs and expenses increased ~~$1.5~~$26.4 million, or ~~less than 1%~~4%, to ~~$635.1~~$650.9 million from ~~$633.6~~$624.5 million for the same period a year ~~ago, while depreciation~~ago. The increase in costs and expenses was the net result of a $4.4 million increase in cost of goods sold, a $23.9 million increase in operating expenses offset by a $1.9 million decrease in selling, general and administrative costs. Consistent with the trends mentioned in our nine-month discussion above, the 6% increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable to higher wages, maintenance costs and operating supply costs during the current twelve-month period compared to

the same period a year ago. In addition, the overall increase in costs and expenses reflects the negative impact of exchange rates on our Canadian operations ($3.3 million) during the twelve-month period compared to the same period a year ago.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the trailing-twelve-month periods decreased ~~$8.0~~$6.4 million ~~or 6%,~~ between ~~periods. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense reflects~~years, resulting primarily from the ~~accelerated amortization in~~impairment charge taken on the ~~fourth quarter~~fixed assets of ~~2009 of the intangible asset related to the Nickelodeon licensing agreement that was not renewed~~California's Great America at the end of ~~2009.~~

2010. During the ~~second and fourth quarters of~~ ~~2010~~,twelve-month period ended September 25, 2011, we recognized a non-cash ~~charges~~charge of ~~$1.4 million and~~ $0.9 million ~~respectively,~~ for the partial impairment of trade-names originally recorded at the time of the PPI ~~acquisition.~~acquisition, which was booked in the fourth quarter of 2010. This compares with a total non-cash

~~Table of Contents~~

charge of ~~$4.5~~$5.9 million for the impairment of trade-names during the twelve-month period ended September 26, 2010, which was recorded in the second quarter of 2010 ($1.4 million) and the fourth quarter of ~~2009.~~2009 ($4.5 million). Additionally, in the ~~fourth quarter of 2010~~current trailing-twelve month period we recognized a non-cash charge of $62.0 million at California's Great America for the partial impairment of the park's fixed assets and a ~~$0.8~~$1.5 million charge for asset retirements across all properties.

~~The comparison~~ This compares to a non-cash charge of ~~operating income between periods is also affected by a $23.1~~$0.3 million gain on the sale of other assets in 2009. In late August of 2009, we completed the sale of 87 acres of surplus land at Canada's Wonderland to the Vaughan Health Campus of Care in Ontario, Canada as part of our ongoing efforts to reduce debt. Net proceeds from this sale totaled $53.8 million and resulted in the ~~recognition~~same period a year ago for the retirement of ~~a $23.1 million gain during 2009. Due to this gain~~assets across our properties. After depreciation, amortization, loss on impairment of the trade-names, loss on impairment / retirement of fixed assets, and ~~the~~all other ~~reasons mentioned above,~~non-cash costs, operating income for the twelve months ended ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 decreased ~~$16.7~~$18.4 million to ~~$161.6~~$173.6 million compared with ~~$178.4~~$192.0 million for the same period a year ago.

As a result of the July 2010 debt refinancing, as well as the February 2011 amendment to the credit agreement, interest-rate spreads and long-term borrowings were higher during the current trailing-twelve-month period than the same period a year ago. Based on the higher interest rates and long-term borrowings, interest expense for the period increased ~~$43.9~~$33.4 million to ~~$171.2~~$171.0 million from ~~$127.3~~$137.6 million for the same period a year ago. Also as the result of the July 2010 refinancing, a $35.3 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt was recognized and recorded in the statement of operations.

The net effect of our swaps ~~decreased $9.7 million between periods, resulting in~~during the period was a non-cash charge to earnings of ~~$9.0~~$1.8 million, ~~for~~representing a decrease of $17.2 million from the ~~last twelve months and reflecting~~twelve-month period in 2010. This non-cash charge reflects the regularly scheduled amortization of amounts in ~~Accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI")~~AOCI related to the swaps, offset somewhat by gains from marking the ineffective and de-designated swaps to market and foreign currency gains related to the U.S.-dollar denominated Canadian term loan in the current period. During the last ~~twelve month~~twelve-month period, we also recognized a ~~$24.4~~$2.3 million ~~benefit~~net charge to earnings for unrealized/realized foreign currency gains ~~$21.6~~and losses, $0.5 million of which represents an unrealized foreign currency ~~gain~~loss on the U.S.-dollar denominated notes issued in July and held at our Canadian property.

A net ~~provision~~benefit for taxes of ~~$38.0~~$11.8 million was recorded to account for PTP taxes and the tax attributes of our corporate subsidiaries ~~and publicly traded partnership (PTP) taxes~~ during the twelve-month period ended ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011, compared with a ~~net benefit~~provision for taxes of ~~$6.3~~$4.1 million during the same twelve-month period a year ago. The variation in the tax provision (benefit) recorded between periods is due primarily to the lower estimated annual effective tax rate for the 2011 year, as noted above in our discussion of ~~six-month~~nine-month operating results.

After interest expense and the provision (benefit) for taxes, net ~~loss~~income for the twelve months ended ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 was ~~$67.4~~$9.5 million, or ~~$1.22~~$0.17 per diluted limited partner unit, compared with net income of ~~$37.2~~$5.3 million, or ~~$0.67~~$0.10 per diluted limited partner unit, for the twelve months ended ~~June 27, 2010.~~September 26, 2010.

For the twelve-month period ended ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 ~~adjusted~~, Adjusted EBITDA increased ~~$33.5~~$18.2 million, or ~~10%~~5%, to ~~$356.4~~$366.4 million, ~~while our adjusted~~primarily the result of the revenue growth between years driven by the increase in attendance and per-capita spending, and offset somewhat by incremental operating costs associated with the increase in attendance.

~~July~~

October 2011 -

Based on preliminary ~~July~~October results, net revenues for the first ~~seven~~ten months of the year increased approximately ~~$24~~$46 million to ~~$611~~$997 million from ~~$587~~$951 million for the same period a year ago, on a comparable number of operating days. The revenue increase reflects a 3%2% increase in attendance to ~~13.8~~22.7 million visitors from ~~13.4~~22.2 million through the first ~~seven~~ten months of 2010 and a 1%2% increase in average in-park guest per capita spending. Over this same period, out-of-park revenues increased approximately $2$6 million, or 3%6%, to ~~$66~~$107 million, driven primarily by improved occupancy levels at our resort properties.

Over the past five weeks, consolidated revenues were up 6%, or approximately $18 million. This increase was largely the result of a 5%, or 314,000-visit, increase in combined attendance and a $0.8 million increase in out-of-park revenues. Over the same five-week period, average in-park guest per capita spending continued to trend up roughly 2% over last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

With respect to both liquidity and cash flow, we ended the ~~second~~third quarter of 2011 in sound condition. The negative working capital ratio (current liabilities divided by current assets) of ~~2.3~~1.3 at ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 reflects the impact of our seasonal ~~business, as well as current derivative liabilities of approximately $78 million which will settle in the next twelve months.~~business. Receivables and inventories are at normal seasonal levels and credit facilities are in place to fund current liabilities and capital expenditures.

In July 2010, we issued $405 million of 9.125% senior unsecured notes, maturing in 2018, in a private placement, including $5.6 million of Original Issue Discount (OID) to yield 9.375%. Concurrently with this offering, we entered into a new $1,435 million credit agreement (the "2010 Credit Agreement"), which included a new $1,175 million senior secured term loan facility and a new $260 million senior secured revolving credit facility. The net proceeds from the offering of the notes, along with proceeds from the 2010 Credit Agreement, were used to repay in full all amounts outstanding under our existing credit facilities.

In February 2011, we amended the 2010 Credit Agreement (as so amended, the "Amended 2010 Credit Agreement"), including to extend the maturity date of the U.S. term loan portion of the credit facilities by one year. Under the Amended 2010 Credit Agreement, the extended U.S. term loan ~~amortizes at $11.8 million per year,~~ is scheduled to mature in December of 2017 and bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 300 bps, with a LIBOR floor of 100 bps.

The Amended 2010 Credit Agreement also includes a $260 million revolving credit facility. Under the agreement, the Canadian portion of the revolving credit facility has a limit of $15 million. U.S. denominated loans made under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 400 bps (with no LIBOR floor). Canadian denominated loans made under the Canadian portion of the facility also bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 400 bps (with no LIBOR floor). The revolving credit facility, which matures in July of 2015, also provides for the issuance of documentary and standby letters of credit.

In August of 2011, we made an $18 million optional prepayment on our variable-rate term debt. As a result of this prepayment, at the end of the third quarter we had no term debt maturities due within the next twelve months. At the end of the quarter, we had a total of ~~$1,177.1~~$1,156.1 million of variable-rate term debt, ~~$399.8~~$400.2 million of fixed-rate debt (including OID), ~~$85.0 million in~~no outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and cash on hand of ~~$35.7~~$96.3 million. After letters of credit, which totaled ~~$15.7~~$15.6 million at ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011, we had ~~$159.3~~$244.4 million of available borrowings under the revolving credit facility under the Amended 2010 Credit Agreement. ~~Of our total term debt outstanding at the end of the~~ ~~second~~ ~~quarter, $11.8 million is scheduled to mature within the next twelve months.~~

Our $405 million of senior unsecured notes require semi-annual interest payments in February and August, with the principal due in full on August 1, 2018. The notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time prior to August 1, 2014 at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed plus a “make-whole” premium together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. Thereafter, the notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at various prices depending on the date redeemed. Prior to August 1, 2013, up to 35% of the notes may be redeemed with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings at 109.125%.

In 2006, we entered into several fixed-rate interest rate swap agreements totaling $1.0 billion. The weighted average fixed-LIBOR rate on ~~the~~these interest rate swaps, which ~~mature in~~matured on October 1, 2011, iswas 5.6%. Based upon our scheduled quarterly regression analysis testing of the effectiveness for the accounting treatment of these swaps, as well as changes in the forward interest rate yield curves used in that testing, the swaps were deemed to be ineffective beginning in October 2009 and continued to be deemed ineffective through ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011. This resulted in the swaps not qualifying for hedge accounting during the fourth quarter of 2009 and through 2010 and the first ~~two~~three quarters of 2011. The fair market value of these instruments at ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 was a $~~20.2~~4.8 million liability, which was recorded in “Current derivative liability” on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

In 2007, we entered into two cross-currency swap agreements, which mature in February 2012 and effectively converted $268.7 million of term debt at the time, and the associated interest payments, from U.S. dollar denominated debt at a rate of LIBOR plus 200 bps to 6.3% fixed-rate Canadian dollar denominated debt. As a result of paying down the underlying Canadian term debt with net proceeds from the sale of surplus land near Canada’s Wonderland in August 2009, the notional amounts of the underlying debt and the cross-currency swaps no longer match. Because of the mismatch of the notional amounts, we determined the swaps would no longer be highly effective going forward, resulting in the de-designation of the swaps as of the end of August 2009. The fair market value of these instruments at ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 was a $~~53.1~~37.7 million liability, which was recorded in “Current derivative liability” on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Based on the change in currency exchange rates from the time we originally entered into the cross-currency swap agreements in 2007, the termination liability of the swaps has increased steadily over time. In order to protect ourselves from further downside risk to the swaps' termination value, in May 2011 we entered into several foreign currency swap agreements to fix the exchange

rate on 50% of the liability. In July 2011, we fixed the exchange rate on another 25% of the swap liability, leaving only 25% exposed to further fluctuations in currency exchange rates. The fair market value of the foreign currency swap agreements in place as of ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 was a liability of $~~4.3~~16.8 million, which was recorded in "Current derivative liability" on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Based on currency exchange rates in place at the end of the ~~second~~third quarter of 2011 and the exchange rates locked into by the foreign currency swap agreements, we estimate the cash termination costs of the cross-currency swaps will total approximately ~~$55~~$50 million in February 2012.

The following table presents ~~our existing~~ fixed-rate swaps ~~which mature October 1,~~in existence as of September 25, 2011, along with their notional amounts and their fixed interest rates, which compare to 30-day LIBOR of 0.25% ~~as of~~ ~~June 26, 2011~~. These swaps matured on October 1, 2011. The table also presents our cross-currency swaps and their notional amounts and interest rates as of ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011.

In order to maintain fixed interest costs on a portion of its domestic term debt beyond the expiration of the swaps entered into in 2006 and 2007, in September 2010 ~~the Partnership~~we entered into several forward-starting swap agreements ("September 2010 swaps") to effectively convert a total of $600 million of variable-rate debt to fixed rates beginning in October 2011. As a result of the February 2011 amendment to our credit agreement, the LIBOR floor on the term loan portion of our credit facilities decreased to 100 bps from 150 bps, causing a mismatch in critical terms of the September 2010 swaps and the underlying debt. Because of the mismatch of critical terms, we determined the September 2010 swaps, which were originally designated as cash flow hedges, were no longer highly effective, resulting in the de-designation of the September 2010 swaps as of the end of February 2011.

In order to monetize the difference in the LIBOR floors, in March 2011 we entered into several additional forward-starting basis-rate swap agreements ("March 2011 swaps") that, when combined with the September 2010 swaps, will effectively convert $600 million of variable-rate debt to fixed rates beginning in October 2011. The September 2010 swaps and the March 2011 swaps, which have been jointly designated as cash flow hedges, mature in December 2015 and fix LIBOR at a weighted average rate of 2.46%.

On May 2, 2011, we entered into four additional forward-starting basis-rate swap agreements ("May 2011 forward-starting swaps") that effectively convert another $200 million of variable-rate debt to fixed rates beginning in October 2011. These swaps, which have been designated as cash flow hedges, mature in December 2015 and fix LIBOR at a weighted average rate of 2.54%. The fair market value of all $800 million of forward-starting swap agreements at ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011 was a liability of ~~$16.8~~$33.8 million, which was recorded in "Derivative Liability" on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The Amended 2010 Credit Agreement requires us to maintain specified financial ratios, which if breached for any reason, including a decline in operating results due to economic or weather conditions, could result in an event of default under the agreement. The most critical of these ratios is the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, which is measured on a trailing-twelve-month quarterly basis. At the end of the ~~second~~third quarter of 2011, this ratio was set at 6.25x consolidated total debt (excluding the revolving debt)-to-consolidated EBITDA. Beginning with the fourth quarter of 2011, this ratio will decrease to 6.0x consolidated total debt (excluding the revolving debt)-to ~~Consolidated~~consolidated EBITDA, and the ratio will decrease further each fourth quarter beginning with the fourth quarter of 2013. Based on our trailing-twelve-month results ending ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011, our Consolidated Leverage Ratio was ~~4.42~~4.25x, providing $~~104.1~~117.4 million of EBITDA cushion on the ratio at the end of the ~~second~~third quarter. We were in compliance with all other covenants under the Amended 2010 Credit Agreement as of ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011.

The Amended 2010 Credit Agreement also includes provisions that allow us to make restricted payments of up to $60 million in 2011 and up to $20 million annually thereafter, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, so long as no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing. The restricted payment limitation in place under the agreement during 2010 and prior to the recent amendment capped the annual amount of permitted restricted payments at $20 million. These restricted payments are not subject to any specific covenants. Beginning in 2012, additional restricted payments are allowed to be made based on an excess-cash-flow formula, should our pro-forma Consolidated Leverage Ratio be less than or equal to 4.50x, measured on a trailing-twelve-month quarterly basis.

The terms of the indenture governing our notes permit us to make restricted payments of $20 million annually. Our ability to make additional restricted payments in 2011 and beyond is permitted should our trailing-twelve-month Total-Indebtedness-to-Consolidated-Cash-Flow Ratio be less than or equal to 4.75x, measured on a quarterly basis.

In accordance with these debt provisions, on ~~May 5,~~August 3, 2011, we announced the declaration of a distribution of ~~$0.10~~$0.12 per limited partner unit, which was paid on ~~June~~September 15, ~~2011.~~2011, bringing the total amount of distributions declared and paid in 2011 to $0.30 per limited partner unit.

In addition to the above, among other covenants and provisions, the Amended 2010 Credit Agreement contains an initial three-year requirement (from July 2010) that at least 50% of our aggregate term debt and senior notes be subject to either a fixed interest rate or interest rate protection. As of ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011, we were well within compliance of this requirement.

Existing credit facilities and cash flows from operations are expected to be sufficient to meet working capital needs, debt service, partnership distributions and planned capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.

Forward Looking Statements

Some of the statements contained in this report (including the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section) that are not historical in nature are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including statements as to our expectations, beliefs and strategies regarding the future. These forward-looking statements may involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict, may be beyond our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in such statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Important factors, including those listed under Item 1A in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, could adversely affect our future financial performance and cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risks from fluctuations in interest rates, and to a lesser extent in currency exchange rates on our operations in Canada and, from time to time, on imported rides and equipment. The objective of our financial risk management is to reduce the potential negative impact of interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations to acceptable levels. We do not acquire market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes.

We manage interest rate risk through the use of a combination of fixed-rate long-term debt, interest rate swaps, which fix a portion of our variable-rate long-term debt, and variable-rate borrowings under our revolving credit loans. We mitigate a portion of our foreign currency exposure from the Canadian dollar through the use of foreign-currency denominated debt. Hedging of the U.S. dollar denominated debt, used to fund a substantial portion of our net investment in our Canadian operations, is accomplished through the use of cross-currency swaps. Any gain or loss on the effective hedging instrument primarily offsets the gain or loss on the underlying debt. Translation exposures with regard to our Canadian operations are not hedged.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative instrument is reported as a component of “Other comprehensive income (loss)” and reclassified into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments that do not qualify as effective hedging activities are reported as “Net effect of swaps” in the consolidated statement of operations. Additionally, the “Other comprehensive income (loss)” related to interest rate swaps that become ineffective is amortized over the remaining life of the interest rate swap, and reported as a component of “Net effect of swaps” in the consolidated statement of operations.

After considering the impact of interest rate swap agreements at ~~June 26, 2011, $1,656.9 million~~that are currently in place, approximately $1.5 billion of our outstanding long-term debt ~~represented~~represents fixed-rate debt and ~~$4.9~~approximately $100.0 million ~~represented~~represents variable-rate debt. Assuming an average balance on our revolving credit borrowings of approximately ~~$68~~$55 million, a hypothetical 100 bps increase in 30-day LIBOR on our variable-rate debt, after the fixed-rate swap agreements, would lead to ~~a decrease~~an increase of approximately $9$1.1 million in annual cash interest costs.

A uniform 10% strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar would result in a ~~$3.8~~$4.0 million decrease in annual operating income.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures -

The Partnership maintains a system of controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Partnership in its reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Partnership’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the interim co-principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of ~~June 26,~~September 25, 2011, the Partnership has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures under supervision of management, including the Partnership’s Chief Executive Officer and interim co-principal financial officers. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and interim co-principal financial officers concluded that the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

(b)Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting -

There were no changes in the Partnership’s internal controls over financial reporting in connection with its 2011 ~~second~~third-quarter evaluation, or subsequent to such evaluation, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Jacob T. Falfas vs. Cedar Fair, L.P.

On July 23, 2010, Jacob T. (Jack) Falfas, the former Chief Operating Officer, filed a demand for private arbitration as provided by his employment agreement. In that demand, Mr. Falfas disputed the Partnership's position that he had resigned in June 2010, alleging instead that his employment with the Partnership was terminated without cause. That dispute went to private arbitration, and on February 28, 2011, an arbitration panel ruled 2-to-1 in favor of Mr. Falfas finding that he did not resign but was terminated without cause. Rather than fashioning a remedy consistent with the employment agreement, the panel ruled that Mr. Falfas should be reinstated. The Partnership believes that the arbitrators exceeded their authority by creating a remedy not legally available to Mr. Falfas under his contract with Cedar Fair. On March 21, 2011, the Partnership filed an action in Erie County Court of Common Pleas (Case No. 2011 CV 0217) seeking to have the award modified or vacated. On March 22, 2011, Mr. Falfas commenced a related action in the Erie County Court of Common Pleas (Case No. 2011 CV 0218) demanding enforcement of the arbitration ruling. The two actions have been combined into Case No. 2011 CV 0217, before Judge Roger E. Binette. The legal briefing in the case was completed on June 24, 2011 and the case is now before the Court awaiting a decision. The Partnership does not expect the arbitration ruling or the pending lawsuit to materially affect its financial results in future periods.

Q Funding III, L.P. and Q4 Funding, L.P. vs. Cedar Fair Management, Inc.

On October 14, 2010, Q Funding III, L.P. and Q4 Funding, L.P. (together, "Q Funding"), both Cedar Fair, L.P. unitholders, commenced an action in the Delaware Court of Chancery against Cedar Fair Management, Inc. ("CFMI") and Cedar Fair, L.P. The complaint alleges, among other things, that CFMI breached the terms of the Fifth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”) by indicating that unitholders may lack the right to nominate candidates, or to solicit proxies in support of new candidates, for election to the board of directors of CFMI. Q Funding seeks, among other things, (i) a declaratory judgment that under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, all unitholders, including Q Funding, have the right to nominate and solicit proxies in support of candidates for election as directors to the Board of CFMI, and (ii) injunctive relief precluding the Company or its representatives from taking any action to interfere with unitholders’ rights to nominate and solicit proxies in support of candidates for election as directors to the Board of CFMI at the 2011 annual meeting of Cedar Fair unitholders and subsequent annual meetings of the Cedar Fair unitholders. The Partnership filed an answer denying the allegations as set forth in the complaint and the Partnership and Q Funding thereafter engaged in discovery. On March 9, 2011, Q Funding requested a suspension of the litigation scheduled in the nomination rights action and requested that the evidentiary hearing, which was originally scheduled for April 21, 2011, be removed from the Court's calendar. The Partnership supported Q Funding's request and the evidentiary hearing has since been postponed. On April 20, 2011, Q Funding filed a motion for leave to amend and supplement its original complaint to include an additional allegation of breach of fiduciary duty regarding to disclosures contained in the Partnership's 2004 Proxy Statement. The Partnership filed its Answer to the Amended Complaint denying the claims on May 23, 2011.

On March 17, 2011, Q Funding commenced an action in the Delaware Court of Chancery against CFMI and Cedar Fair, L.P. seeking declaratory and injunctive relief directing the Partnership to schedule a special meeting of Cedar Fair's unitholders to consider an amendment proposed by plaintiffs to Cedar Fair's Partnership Agreement relating to unitholder nomination rights. On April 13, 2011, the Partnership filed a motion to dismiss the action. ~~A briefing schedule on the motion to dismiss has not yet been set.~~ On May 3, 2011 the Partnership filed a definitive proxy with the Securities and Exchange Commission which set a record date of April 11, 2011 and a special meeting of the Partnership's unitholders was held on June 2, 2011. Q Funding voluntarily dismissed the suit on June 14, 2011.

On June 14, 2011, Q Funding commenced an action in Delaware Court of Chancery ~~Court~~ against CFMI and Cedar Fair L.P. seeking declaratory and injunctive relief relating to plaintiffs' May 17, 2011 request for a special meeting of Cedar Fair's unitholders to consider, among other things, a proposal to remove CFMI as the general partner of Cedar Fair and to amend the Partnership Agreement to allow unitholders to nominate directors for election to the board of directors of the general partner. This new lawsuit was filed in response to defendants' June 10, 2011 denial of plaintiffs' May 17 special meeting request on the grounds that, as required by the Partnership Agreement, the request failed to: (i) identify and provide adequate information regarding the successor general partner; (ii) provide an opinion of counsel that the removal of CFMI as the general partner of Cedar Fair and the selection and admission of a successor general partner will not result in the loss of limited liability for any limited partner or cause Cedar Fair to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes; and (iii) provide specific language for the proposed amendment to the Partnership Agreement. Q Funding has provided the required legal opinions but has not provided the remainder of the required information. The Partnership has not yet filed an answer, and the case is still pending in the Delaware Court. ~~A scheduling conference with the Court is set for mid August.~~

(7) Fair Value Measurements:

The three broad levels of inputs defined by the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

(7) Fair Value Measurements:

The three broad levels of inputs defined by the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

(7) Fair Value Measurements:

The three broad levels of inputs defined by the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
