CFK and Pope, which are owned by Messrs. Keating and Mallick and their families, respectively, each owned a 25% interest in E11GP, which serves as the sole general partner of the Partnership. The remaining interests in E11GP are owned by GKOG and DMOG, which are owned by Messrs. Knight and McKenney and their families, respectively. Pursuant to the Agreement, CFK and Pope sold their interests in E11GP to an affiliate of Knight and withdrew as members of E11GP.
