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) KAFU Holdings (QP), L.P. and KAFU Holdings, L.P. (Collectively "KAFU") hold Class B shares representing limited partner interest in Plains GP Holdings L.P. (the "Issuer"), an equivalent number of units representing limited liability company interests of the Issuer's general partner ("GP Units"), and an equivalent number of Class A Units representing limited partner interests in Plains AAP, L.P. ("AAP"). The Eight Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of AAP provides that each partner of AAP, including KAFU, has the right at any time (without expiration) to immediately exchange (the "Exchange Right") its Class A units in AAP together with a like number of Class B shares and GP Units, for a like number of Class A shares of the Issuer. On December 29, 2017, KAFU Holdings (QP), L.P and KAFU Holdings L.P. exercised the Exchange Right with respect to 223,465 Class A Units.
(2) Kayne Anderson Capital Advisors, L.P. ("KACALP") is the manager of the general partner of KAFU and may be deemed to beneficially own the Class B shares, Class A Units, and GP Units held by KAFU. The filing of this statement shall not be construed as an admission that either KAFU or KACALP are, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, as amended, the beneficial owner of any security.
(3) The reported transaction involves an in-kind distribution to redeeming limited partners of KAFU Holdings (QP), L.P. and KAFU Holdings L.P.
(4) Shares held by KACALP.
(5) In a simultaneous transaction, KAFU exercised the redemption right provided for in the limited partnership agreement of AAP with respect to 551,323 Class A units. As a result, such Class A units were cancelled and 551,323 Common Units of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. were distributed by AAP to KAFU. The number of derivative securities owned reflects both the exchange transaction reported herein and the simultaneous redemption transaction.
 
Remarks:
Bob Sinnott is a director of the managing general partner of the Issuer. Based on the relationship of Mr. Sinnott and the Reporting Persons, the Reporting Persons may be deemed directors by deputization of the Issuer. KAFU Holdings (QP), L.P., KAFU Holdings, L.P., are referred to herein as the "Reporting Persons". The filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that any Reporting Person is, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, as amended, the beneficial owner of any security.
