1. We note your response to our prior comment one in our letter dated May 20, 2011 and the
proposed revised disclosure. However, we are unclear about the appr opriateness of your
current combined EPU presentation under GAA P on the face of the income statements.
We believe you should present earnings per co mmon unit data on the face of the income
statements instead of the combined EPU presentation. Please revise by amending the
Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended Decem ber 31, 2010 and the subsequent Form 10-Q
for the Fiscal Quarter Ended March 31, 2011 or explain to us why you are not required to

do so. Also, remove the combined EPU pres entation in the proposed revised footnote
disclosure.
You may contact Milwood H obbs, Staff Accountant, at (202) 551-3241 or, in his
absence, the undersigned at (202) 551-3377 if you have questions.
Sincerely,
