Shuttle Tanker Market Overview Thank you, any questions? 18

APPENDIX Appendix

Non-GAAP Financial Measures EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, depreciation and taxes. Adjusted EBITDA refers to earnings before interest, depreciation, taxes, goodwill impairment charges and other financial items (including other finance expenses, realized and unrealized gain (loss) on derivative instruments and net gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions). EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of financial statements, such as our lenders, to assess KNOP s financial and operating performance and our compliance with the financial covenants and restrictions contained in KNOP s financing agreements. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of financial statements, such as investors, to assess the KNOP s financial and operating performance. The Partnership believes that Adjusted EBITDA assists its management and investors by increasing the comparability of its performance from period to period and against the performance of other companies in its industry that provide Adjusted EBITDA information. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods or companies of interest, other financial items, taxes, goodwill impairment charges and depreciation, which items are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis and which items may significantly affect net income between periods. The Partnership believes that including Adjusted EBITDA as a financial measure benefits investors in (a) selecting between investing in the Partnership and other investment alternatives and (b) monitoring the Partnership s ongoing financial and operational strength in assessing whether to continue to hold common units. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-gaap financial measures and should not be considered an alternatives to net income or any other indicator of Partnership performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Distributable Cash Flow Distributable cash flow represents net income adjusted for depreciation, unrealized gains and losses from derivatives, unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses, goodwill impairment charges, other non-cash items and estimated maintenance and replacement capital expenditures. Estimated maintenance and replacement capital expenditures, including estimated expenditures for drydocking, represent capital expenditures required to maintain over the long-term the operating capacity of, or the revenue generated by KNOP s capital assets. The Partnership believes distributable cash flow is an important measure of operating performance used by management and investors in publicly-traded partnerships to compare the cash generating performance of KNOP from period to period and to compare the cash generating performance for specific periods to the cash distributions (if any) that are expected to be paid to KNOP s unitholders. Distributable cash flow is a non-gaap financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other indicator of KNOT Offshore Partners performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. 20

Reconciliation of estimated net income and estimated EBITDA for KNOT 24 For KNOT 24, the entity that the Partnership intends to pending purchase in the acquisition, estimated net income and estimated EBITDA for the twelve months following the closing of the acquisition are based on the following assumptions: closing of the Acquisition and timely receipt of charter hire specified in the time charter contract; utilization of the Tordis Knutsen of 363 days per year and no drydocking of the vessel; no realized or unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments related to KNOT 24 s financing arrangements; vessel operating costs per current internal estimates; and general and administrative expenses based on management s current internal estimates. We consider the above assumptions to be reasonable as of the date hereof, but if these assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual net income and EBITDA for KNOT 24 could differ materially from our estimates. Neither our independent auditors nor any other independent accountants have compiled, examined, or performed any procedures with respect to the prospective financial information contained herein, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability and assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, such prospective financial information. The table below reconciles for the twelve months following the closing of the Acquisition, estimated EBITDA to estimated net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure: Unaudited, USD in thousands KNOT 24 Net income 7,848 Interest expense 2,717 Depreciation 5,600 Income tax expense EBITDA 16,165 21
