• Shares owned after transaction: 549,400,539 units on the record date plus 32,536,774 received, bringing the implied total to ~581,937,313 depository units (based on footnote math).
• Notable footnotes: F5 confirms this was a payment-in-kind dividend; F1–F4 and F6–F11 describe holdings and indirect beneficial ownership through multiple entities (CCI Onshore, High Coast, Gascon, Thornwood, etc.) and disclaimers of direct beneficial ownership by affiliated entities.
• Filing timeliness: Form filed 2026-04-17 for a 2026-04-15 transaction (filed within the typical two-business-day window).

Context

• This is a dividend-in-kind receipt by a 10% owner and related entities—not an open-market buy or sale—so it does not directly signal new buying/selling intent by Mr. Icahn.
• As a 10% owner with complex indirect holdings, reported totals reflect units held through multiple affiliated entities; disclaimers in the footnotes note that Mr. Icahn and related entities may be deemed to beneficially own units indirectly but disclaim direct ownership except to the extent of pecuniary interest.
