Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	The Evercore LP partnership units are, subject to certain restrictions in the Evercore LP partnership agreement, exchangeable on a one-for-one basis for shares of Evercore Partners Inc. Class A common stock, subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassifications.
(2)	Mr. Altman has made a bona fide gift of these Evercore LP partnership units to the American Museum of Natural History, an unaffiliated not-for-profit institution.
(3)	These Evercore LP partnership units are held in trust for the benefit of Mr. Altman's family. 1,411,230 Evercore LP partnership units previously held by a grantor retained annuity trust of which Mr. Altman was the investment trustee were transferred to a trust for the benefit of Mr. Altman's family. Mr. Altman disclaims beneficial ownership of these partnership units, and the filing of this report is not an admission that Mr. Altman is the beneficial owner of these partnership units for the purposes of Section 16 or any other purpose.
