Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by the following:

Capital GP L.L.C., the general partner of the Issuer (the “General Partner”), is a limited liability company organized under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands. The General Partner was initially formed and controlled by Capital Maritime. On April 26, 2019, Capital Maritime transferred all membership interests in the General Partner to a vehicle wholly owned by Miltiadis E. Marinakis, as part of a reallocation of various shipping interests and businesses among members of the Marinakis family. Mr. Miltiadis E. Marinakis, born in 1999, is the son of Evangelos M. Marinakis. Although not engaged in day-to-day management, Mr. Miltiadis E. Marinakis holds and oversees certain shipping interests on behalf of the Marinakis family.

Pursuant to the Limited Liability Company Agreement of the General Partner dated March 22, 2007, the management of the General Partner is vested exclusively in its members from time to time. Accordingly, Mr. Miltiadis E. Marinakis, acting on behalf of the Marinakis family as the sole member of the General Partner, has the right to appoint and elect all the officers of the General Partner.

Pursuant to the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Issuer, dated February 22, 2010 (as amended from time to time, the “Partnership Agreement”), the General Partner controls the appointment of three of the eight members of the Issuer’s board of directors. Accordingly, through the right to manage the General Partner, Mr. Miltiadis E. Marinakis, acting on behalf of the Marinakis family, has the ability to influence the management, policies and control of the Issuer.

The General Partner may not be removed from its position as General Partner of the Issuer unless two thirds of the outstanding Common Units, including units held by the General Partner and its affiliates, as well as the majority of the board of directors of the Issuer vote to approve such removal. As of September 10, 2020, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own in aggregate 17.9% of the Common Units issued and outstanding. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons have the ability to significantly influence the outcome of any unitholder votes on the removal of the General Partner.

Furthermore, the General Partner is able to prevent the Issuer and its subsidiaries from taking certain significant actions, including, among other things:

•

certain dispositions of assets of the Issuer;

•

a merger or consolidation of the Issuer;

•

the dissolution of the Issuer;

•

certain acquisitions of assets;


CUSIP No. Y11082206		Page 7 of 9

•

certain incurrences of debt; and

•

certain issuances of equity interests in the Issuer.

References to, and descriptions of, the Partnership Agreement set forth in this Item 4 are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Partnership Agreement and the amendments thereto contained as exhibits to the Issuer’s Current Reports on Form 6-K filed or furnished with the SEC on February 24, 2010, September 30, 2011, May 23, 2012, March 21, 2013, and August 26, 2014.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the following:

(a) Capital Maritime beneficially owns 2,863,805 Common Units, representing 15.4% of the outstanding Common Units.

CCIC beneficially owns 469,172 Common Units, representing 2.5% of the outstanding Common Units.

The Marinakis family, including Evangelos M. Marinakis, may be deemed to beneficially own, in aggregate, 3,332,977 Common Units through its beneficial ownership of CCIC and Capital Maritime, representing, in aggregate, 17.9% of the outstanding Common Units.

Furthermore, the General Partner owns 348,570 general partner units, representing a 1.8% partnership interest in the Issuer (calculated based on an aggregate of 18,971,670 units of the Issuer). Disclosure contained in Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference.
