Context
These purchases were made by the general partner entity to satisfy LTIP award obligations — an administrative buy to deliver units for compensation awards rather than a clear personal directional trade by an individual executive. While purchases can be a positive signal, this filing primarily documents an LTIP-related acquisition by the partnership entity.
