F1As of the date of this Form 4, the Reporting Person holds an indirect ownership interest in Plains GP Holdings, L.P. (the "Issuer") through his ownership in KAFU Holdings, L.P., KAFU Holdings (QP), L.P., and KAFU Holdings II, L.P. (collectively, "KAFU"). Further the Reporting Person is the Chief Executive Officer of Kayne Anderson Capital Advisors, L.P. ("KACALP"), an SEC registered investment adviser and the managing member of KAFU which is also an affiliate of FRCI, LLC ("FRCI")by virtue of common ownership. The Reporting Person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of all of the interests held by KAFU and KACALP as applicable.
F2In connection with the initial public offering of the Issuer, the limited partnership agreement of AAP was amended and restated to provide that each limited partner of AAP, including KAFU and KACALP, will have the right at any time (without expiration) to immediately exchange (the "Exchange Right") its Class A units in AAP together with a like number of Class B shares and the GP Units, for a like number of Class A shares of the Issuer. The Exchange Right may be settled in cash at the option of the Issuer and, as a result the Reporting person may not be deemed to beneficially own any Class A shares reported herein.
