Third Quarter of 2021 Compared to Second Quarter of 2021
GAAP net income and non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to the partners and preferred unitholders for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, were impacted primarily by an increase in general and administrative expenses related to the Transaction with Stonepeak, an increase in scheduled off-hire days relating to vessel upgrades and dry dockings during the third quarter of 2021, and the redeployment of an LNG carrier in August 2021 at a lower rate. These decreases were partially offset by lower vessel operating expenses during the third quarter of 2021 due primarily to the timing of maintenance activities.
GAAP net income attributable to the partners and preferred unitholders for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was also positively impacted by foreign currency exchange gains and unrealized gains on non-designated derivative instruments in the third quarter of 2021 compared to foreign currency exchange losses and unrealized losses on non-designated derivative instruments in the second quarter of 2021.
Third Quarter of 2021 Compared to Third Quarter of 2020
GAAP net income and non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to the partners and preferred unitholders for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, were impacted primarily by an increase in general and administrative expenses related to the Transaction with Stonepeak, an increase in scheduled off-hire days relating to vessel upgrades and dry dockings during the third quarter of 2021, and the redeployment of two LNG carriers at lower rates in March 2021 and August 2021, respectively.
GAAP net income attributable to the partners and preferred unitholders was positively impacted by the reversal of certain unrealized credit loss provisions and foreign currency exchange gains in the third quarter of 2021 compared to an increase in unrealized credit loss provisions and foreign currency exchange losses in the third quarter of 2020.
CEO Commentary
“While we were once again well-served by our strong contract coverage, Teekay LNG's third quarter results were, as expected, negatively impacted by a heavier-than-normal drydock schedule, partially offset by lower operating expenses and stronger results in our multi-gas carrier fleet,” commented Mark Kremin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Teekay Gas Group Ltd.
Mr. Kremin continued, “In early-October, we announced that Teekay LNG had entered into a merger agreement with an affiliate of Stonepeak whereby the affiliate has agreed to acquire 100 percent of Teekay LNG's common units. We believe that the transaction will enable common unitholders to realize an attractive valuation and immediate liquidity on closing of the transaction. In addition, under Stonepeak's ownership, we expect Teekay LNG will have greater access to competitively priced capital for both fleet renewal and potential future growth, which has not been available to Teekay LNG through the public capital markets for many years."

Summary of Recent Events
Stonepeak Transaction
On October 4, 2021, the Partnership and an affiliate of Stonepeak, a leading alternative investment firm specializing in infrastructure and real assets, entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the Merger Agreement), whereby the Partnership will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of such affiliate. Under the Merger Agreement and a separate agreement between such affiliate and Teekay Corporation (Teekay), it will acquire (a) all the issued and outstanding common units of Teekay LNG, including approximately 36.0 million common units owned by Teekay, and (b) 100 percent of Teekay’s ownership in the General Partner, which includes an economic ownership interest equivalent to approximately 1.6 million Teekay LNG common units, in each case for $17.00 per common unit or common unit equivalent in cash (collectively, the Transaction). The $17.00 per unit acquisition price represents a premium of 8.3 percent to the closing price of Teekay LNG’s common units on October 1, 2021, and premiums of 12.3 percent and 17.5 percent to the volume-weighted average prices of Teekay LNG’s common units over the prior 60 and 180 trading days, respectively. In addition, common unitholders of record on November 5, 2021 will receive the third quarter common unit distribution of $0.2875 per unit on November 12, 2021.
The Transaction remains subject to approval by the holders of a majority of Teekay LNG's outstanding common units and the satisfaction or waiver of other customary closing conditions. The Transaction is expected to close on or soon after December 31, 2021, and the Merger Agreement provides it will not close prior to such date. Teekay, which currently owns approximately 41 percent of Teekay LNG’s outstanding common units, has entered into a voting and support agreement with the Stonepeak affiliate by which Teekay has agreed, among other things and subject to certain conditions, to vote all its Teekay LNG common units in favor of the merger.
As part of the Transaction, Teekay has also agreed to transfer to Teekay LNG, following restructuring of such companies, the ownership of the management services companies that currently deliver the operations for Teekay LNG and certain of its joint ventures under existing management services contracts. Following this transfer, Teekay's remaining subsidiaries will continue to provide existing services to Teekay, its subsidiaries and other third parties.
After the completion of the Transaction, the common units of the Partnership will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange. The Series A and B preferred units of the Partnership will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange following the completion of the Transaction.
Results of Norwegian Bondholder Meeting
On October 27, 2021, the Partnership held a bondholder meeting to approve certain amendments required to complete the Transaction. At the meeting, the Partnership received approval for the required amendments to the bonds maturing in 2023 and 2025, respectively. The Partnership and the bond trustee will amend the terms of the bonds accordingly.

Liquefied Natural Gas Segment
Income from vessel operations and consolidated adjusted EBITDA(1) for the LNG segment for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, decreased primarily due to an increase in scheduled off-hire days relating to vessel upgrades and dry dockings during the third quarter of 2021, and the redeployment of two LNG carriers at lower charter rates in March 2021 and August 2021, respectively.
Equity income from equity-accounted vessels(1) for the LNG segment for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, increased primarily due to lower interest expense due to lower debt balances and lower operational claims in certain of the Partnership's joint ventures during the third quarter of 2021. Equity income was also positively impacted by the reversal of certain unrealized credit loss provisions in the third quarter of 2021 compared to an increase in unrealized credit loss provisions in the third quarter of 2020
Liquefied Petroleum Gas Segment
Loss from vessel operations decreased and consolidated adjusted EBITDA(1) increased for the LPG segment for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, primarily due to higher spot multi-gas rates earned during the third quarter of 2021.
Equity income and adjusted EBITDA from equity-accounted vessels(1) for the LPG segment for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, increased primarily due to higher spot LPG rates earned and fewer scheduled dry dockings of LPG carriers in the Partnership's 50 percent-owned LPG joint venture with Exmar NV (the Exmar LPG Joint Venture) during the third quarter of 2021. Equity income was also positively impacted by gains on the sale of two LPG carriers in the Exmar LPG Joint Venture during the third quarter of 2021.

Definitions and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes various financial measures that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the rules of the SEC. These non-GAAP financial measures which include Adjusted Net Income Attributable to the Partners and Preferred Unitholders, Distributable Cash Flow and Adjusted EBITDA, are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered substitutes for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these measures do not have standardized meanings across companies, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP measures are used by management, and the Partnership believes that these supplementary metrics assist investors and other users of its financial reports in comparing financial and operating performance of the Partnership across reporting periods and with other companies.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization and is adjusted to exclude certain items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated in advance or that are not considered representative of core operating performance. Such adjustments include unrealized credit loss provisions or reversals, unrealized gains or losses on non-designated derivative instruments, write-downs of vessels, gains or losses on sales of vessels, foreign currency exchange gains or losses, adjustments for direct financing and sales-type leases to a cash basis, and certain other income or expenses. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes realized gains or losses on interest rate swaps as management, in assessing the Partnership's performance, views these gains or losses as an element of interest expense and realized gains or losses on derivative instruments resulting from amendments or terminations of the underlying instruments. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA from vessels that are consolidated on the Partnership's financial statements. Adjusted EBITDA from Equity-Accounted Vessels represents the Partnership's proportionate share of Adjusted EBITDA from its equity-accounted vessels. The Partnership does not have the unilateral ability to determine whether the cash generated by its equity-accounted vessels is retained within the entity in which the Partnership holds the equity-accounted investments or distributed to the Partnership and other owners. In addition, the Partnership does not control the timing of any such distributions to the Partnership and other owners. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors and management to measure the operational performance of companies. Please refer to Appendices C and E of this release for reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income and equity income, respectively, which are the most directly comparable GAAP measures reflected in the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements.
Adjusted Net Income Attributable to the Partners and Preferred Unitholders excludes items of income or loss from GAAP net income that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of the Partnership’s financial results. The Partnership believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Partnership’s financial performance, as does management. Please refer to Appendix A of this release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net income, and refer to footnote (2) of the Consolidated Statements of Income for a reconciliation of adjusted equity income to equity income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure reflected in the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements.
Distributable Cash Flow (DCF) represents GAAP net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense, deferred income tax and other non-cash items, estimated maintenance capital expenditures, unrealized gains and losses from non-designated derivative instruments, realized losses on interest rate swap termination, unrealized credit loss provisions and reversals, distributions relating to preferred units, adjustments for direct financing and sales-type leases to a cash basis, unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses, write-downs of vessels, gains or losses on sales of vessels, and the Partnership’s proportionate share of such items in its equity-accounted for investments. Maintenance capital expenditures represent those capital expenditures required to maintain over the long-term the operating capacity of, or the revenue generated by, the Partnership’s capital assets. DCF is a quantitative standard used in the publicly-traded partnership investment community and by management to assist in evaluating financial performance. Please refer to Appendix B of this release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure reflected in the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements.

(1)In 2020, the Partnership wrote-down six wholly-owned multi-gas carriers (the Pan Spirit, Unikum Spirit, Vision Spirit, Camilla Spirit, Sonoma Spirit and Cathinka Spirit) to their estimated fair values. The total impairment charge of $45.0 million related to these six multi-gas carriers is included in write-down of vessels for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
(2)The Partnership’s proportionate share of items within equity income as identified in Appendix A of this release are detailed in the table below. By excluding these items from equity income, the Partnership believes the resulting adjusted equity income is a normalized amount that can be used to better evaluate the financial performance of the Partnership’s equity-accounted investments. Adjusted equity income is a non-GAAP financial measure.

(i) The termination of an interest rate swap agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was in connection with a debt refinancing completed in February 2021 at a lower all-in interest rate.
(4) For accounting purposes, the Partnership is required to revalue all foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities based on the prevailing exchange rates at the end of each reporting period. This revaluation does not affect the Partnership’s cash flows or the calculation of distributable cash flow, but results in the recognition of unrealized foreign currency translation gains or losses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Foreign currency exchange gain (loss) includes realized gains (losses) relating to the amounts the Partnership paid to settle the Partnership’s Norwegian Krone (NOK) denominated unsecured bonds and the associated non-designated cross currency swaps that were entered into as economic hedges in relation to the NOK denominated bonds. Foreign currency exchange gain (loss) also includes unrealized (losses) gains relating to the change in fair value of such derivative instruments and unrealized gains (losses) on the revaluation of the NOK bonds as detailed in the table below:
