(1)	Cash flows relating to the Golar Grand and NR Satu for the periods prior to their acquisition by the Partnership (on November 8, 2012 and July 19, 2012, respectively) when they were owned and operated by Golar have been combined with the previously published cash flows of the Partnership.

(2)

Subsequent to the IPO in April 2011, the Partnership acquired from Golar, 100% interests in subsidiaries which own and operate the FSRUs, the Golar Freeze and the NR Satu, and subsidiaries that lease and operate the LNG carrier, the Golar Grand on October 19, 2011, July 19, 2012 and November 8, 2012, respectively. These transactions were deemed to be a reorganization of entities under common control. As a result, the Partnership's financial statements have been retroactively adjusted for all periods to include the results, cash flows and net assets of the Golar Freeze, the NR Satu and the Golar Grand, herein referred to as the “Dropdown Predecessor” during the periods under common control of Golar. Accordingly, the historical combined cash flows and results reflect allocations of certain administrative and other expenses, including share options and pension costs, mark-to-market valuations of interest rate and foreign currency swap derivatives. The basis for the allocations are described in note 2 of the audited consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 contained in the 20-F filed by Golar Partners with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These allocated costs have been accounted for as an equity contribution in the combined balance sheets.

(3)

As a result of Golar's loss of control in the Partnership from the date of its first AGM held on December 13, 2012, the Partnership is no longer considered to be under common control with Golar and as a consequence, commencing with the acquisition of the Golar Maria on February 7, 2013, the Partnership will no longer account for vessel acquisitions from Golar as a transfer of equity interests between entities under common control. Accordingly, the cash flows of the Golar Maria are consolidated into the Partnership's cash flows from the date of its acquisition. There has been no retroactive restatement of the comparatives to reflect the historical cash flows of the Golar Maria prior to its acquisition.
