  1. A "Blackstone Holdings partnership" unit collectively refers to one limited partner interest in each of Blackstone Holdings I L.P., Blackstone Holdings II L.P., Blackstone Holdings III L.P., and Blackstone Holdings IV L.P. Subject to the minimum retained ownership requirements and transfer restrictions set forth in the partnership agreements of the Blackstone partnerships, the Reporting Person has the rights, exercisable from time to time, to exchange each Blackstone Holdings partnership unit for one common unit of The Blackstone Group L.P. The Blackstone Holdings partnership units have no expiration date and may not be exchanged at any time prior to December 31, 2014 other than pursuant to transactions or programs approved by Blackstone.
  2. Pursuant to an exchange agreement, the Reporting Person exchanged 200,000 Blackstone Holdings partnership units for an equal number of common units of The Blackstone Group L.P. and thereafter sold such 200,000 common units. The proceeds received from the sale of these units represent a portion of the amounts paid or payable for taxes upon prior vesting events of Blackstone Holdings partnership units granted to the Reporting Person in connection with the commencement of his employment with the firm and representing the buyout of managing partner shares of Merrill Lynch & Co. that he forfeited as a result of his departure from that firm.
