For partners, as far as I can tell, EXP don't earn miles at any higher rate than other levels. Higher mileage multipliers are based on cabin class.
The EXP mileage bonus is based on redeemable miles earned, and those miles are based on distance or fare depending on what kind of ticket was bought. When I fly BA prime in premium economy, I earn miles based on distance, then the EXP bonus on top of that. Source
