This presentation contains certain statements that may be deemed to be forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Securities Acts. All statements, other than statements of
historical facts, that address activities, events or developments that the Partnership expects,
projects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including, without limitation, the
outlook for population growth and death rates, general industry conditions including future
operating results of the Partnerships properties, capital expenditures, asset sales, expansion and
growth opportunities, bank borrowings, financing activities and other such matters, are forward-
looking statements. Although the Partnership believes that its expectations stated in this
presentation are based on reasonable assumptions, actual results may differ from those
projected in the forward-looking statements. For a more detailed discussion of risk factors,
please refer to the annual Report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on form 10-Q filed with the
SEC and the prospectus and the prospectus supplement relating to this offering.
In addition, the projected impact of acquisitions reflect managements projections as to possible
future results based on a number of assumptions that are inherently uncertain, including without
limitation the organic growth of the Partnership, the availability of acquisition targets, the
purchase prices for the targets, the availability of debt or equity financing from either third parties
or the targets and the Partnership’s ability to integrate and manage such acquisitions. The
assumptions involve significant elements of subjective judgment and analysis, and no
representation is made as to their or the projections attainability.

Proven Acquisition Track Record
 Growth primarily driven by acquisitions
 Never-break-the-model discipline in selecting acquisition targets
 Focus on acquisitions that generate incremental cash flow in excess of
financing costs
 Accretive from day one
DISIPLINED ACQUISITION PHILOSOPHY
PROVEN TRACK RECORD
 Acquired 144 cemeteries and 85 funeral homes since 2004 IPO
 Leading sector consolidator
– Public competitors have largely curtailed cemetery acquisitions since 1999
– Post-acquisition, improved operating performance through:
• Centralization of many functions
• Purchasing leverage
• Professional maintenance techniques
• Employment of sophisticated pre-need sales program
Private and Confidential
22
Substantial Industry and Financial Barriers to Entry
 Scarcity and cost of real estate near densely populated areas
 Zoning restrictions
 Initial capital requirements
 Strength of family tradition and heritage
 Administratively complex business for new entrants
 Deferred revenue accounting (SAB 101) makes cemetery acquisitions
unattractive to “C-corps” valued on EPS and EBITDA, keeping consolidators
out of the market
BARRIERS TO ENTRY
Because of the barriers to entry, there are few new cemeteries built. The only way to enter
the industry is to buy an existing cemetery
Private and Confidential
Strong Balance Sheet & Recovery Profile

and redeemed once merchandise is delivered

Cemetery Accounting – GAAP vs. Accrual
 GAAP requires that cemetery product revenue be deferred until (i) the product is
purchased, (ii) the product is specifically identified to the customer, and (iii) title is
transferred
 Management uses “accrual” accounting to monitor its performance, recognizing
revenue at the time a contract is finalized
 The timing differences between GAAP criteria for recognition and the time sales are
made create significant disparities in financial results across the two methods
 Cemetery operations are particularly affected due to the high level of pre-need
sales
 SEC now requires the Company to show both accrual and GAAP-based MD&A in
its filings
Private and Confidential
27
Cemetery Revenue – Accounting Recognition
 There are significant timing differences for cemetery product revenue recognition
between GAAP and accrual accounting
Cemetery Product GAAP Revenue Recognition Accrual Revenue Recognition
Burial Lots 10% of selling price collected
 Recognized when the
customer and StoneMor
finalize a contract for a
particular product or
service
 Revenue is recorded less
a 10% bad debt reserve
(historically 8.8%)
 Expenses are accrued
 Receivables are booked

  • 3. Private and Confidential 3 Confidential This presentation contains certain statements that may be deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Acts. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, that address activities, events or developments that the Partnership expects, projects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including, without limitation, the outlook for population growth and death rates, general industry conditions including future operating results of the Partnerships properties, capital expenditures, asset sales, expansion and growth opportunities, bank borrowings, financing activities and other such matters, are forward- looking statements. Although the Partnership believes that its expectations stated in this presentation are based on reasonable assumptions, actual results may differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements. For a more detailed discussion of risk factors, please refer to the annual Report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on form 10-Q filed with the SEC and the prospectus and the prospectus supplement relating to this offering.

The assumptions involve significant elements of subjective judgment and analysis, and no representation is made as to their or the projections attainability.

  • 21. Private and Confidential 2121 Proven Acquisition Track Record  Growth primarily driven by acquisitions  Never-break-the-model discipline in selecting acquisition targets  Focus on acquisitions that generate incremental cash flow in excess of financing costs  Accretive from day one DISIPLINED ACQUISITION PHILOSOPHY PROVEN TRACK RECORD  Acquired 144 cemeteries and 85 funeral homes since 2004 IPO  Leading sector consolidator – Public competitors have largely curtailed cemetery acquisitions since 1999 – Post-acquisition, improved operating performance through: • Centralization of many functions • Purchasing leverage • Professional maintenance techniques • Employment of sophisticated pre-need sales program
  • 22. Private and Confidential 22 Substantial Industry and Financial Barriers to Entry  Scarcity and cost of real estate near densely populated areas  Zoning restrictions  Initial capital requirements  Strength of family tradition and heritage  Administratively complex business for new entrants  Deferred revenue accounting (SAB 101) makes cemetery acquisitions unattractive to “C-corps” valued on EPS and EBITDA, keeping consolidators out of the market BARRIERS TO ENTRY Because of the barriers to entry, there are few new cemeteries built. The only way to enter the industry is to buy an existing cemetery

  • 26. Private and Confidential 26 Cemetery Accounting – GAAP vs. Accrual  GAAP requires that cemetery product revenue be deferred until (i) the product is purchased, (ii) the product is specifically identified to the customer, and (iii) title is transferred  Management uses “accrual” accounting to monitor its performance, recognizing revenue at the time a contract is finalized  The timing differences between GAAP criteria for recognition and the time sales are made create significant disparities in financial results across the two methods  Cemetery operations are particularly affected due to the high level of pre-need sales  SEC now requires the Company to show both accrual and GAAP-based MD&A in its filings
  • 27. Private and Confidential 27 Cemetery Revenue – Accounting Recognition  There are significant timing differences for cemetery product revenue recognition between GAAP and accrual accounting Cemetery Product GAAP Revenue Recognition Accrual Revenue Recognition Burial Lots 10% of selling price collected  Recognized when the customer and StoneMor finalize a contract for a particular product or service  Revenue is recorded less a 10% bad debt reserve (historically 8.8%)  Expenses are accrued  Receivables are booked Mausoleums (Pre-Constructed) % of completion basis, once 10% of selling price collected Mausoleums (Existing) 10% of selling price collected Burial Vaults and Crypts When installed in the ground (0 to 18 months) Grave Markers When stored in a warehouse owned by a 3rd party (~18 months) Caskets When stored in a warehouse owned by a 3rd party (~18 months) Grave Opening (initial) When vault is installed (0 to 18 months) Grave Opening (final) When customer is dead & buried (~25 years)
