Such summaries are qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreements.
Issuers:

Securities Offered:
Up to 1,000,000 investment units (the “Units”), each comprised of one Common Limited Partner Unit (“Common LP Unit”) in KUE and one Class A ordinary share (“Class A Share”) of the General Partner at an offering price of U.S. $1,000 per Unit ($999 allocated to the Common LP Unit and $1 allocated to the Class A Share) (the “Purchase Price”) for aggregate proceeds of U.S. $1 billion (subject to increase in the offering size by the General Partner at its sole discretion up to an aggregate of 1,500,000 Units to Investors, with aggregate proceeds of U.S. $1.5 billion).

The Common LP Units and the Class A Shares comprising the Units owned by the investors (the “Investors”) will not be separately transferable unless otherwise approved by the Board of Directors of the General Partner and a committee of Independent Directors (as defined below) (the “Independent Committee”).
Minimum and Maximum Investment:
