On the date the Convertible Units were issued, the Conversion Value (as defined below) of each Convertible Unit was zero, and the Conversion Value increased each fiscal quarter since the issuance and prior to the Conversion Date in an amount equal to $0.285 less the cash distribution actually paid with respect to each Convertible Unit for such quarter.
