The description for Exceptional producers says: "These horses will be exceptionally good parents compared to other foundations. They will have greater than 100% breeding ability."

The description for Exceptionally Perfect says "Not just perfect, but exceptionally perfect. These horses can train higher and produce better offspring than normal creates. They will have greater than 100% breeding ability and greater than 100% training ability. They also will have perfect consistency."

I understand it as exceptional producers have more than 100% breeding ability just like Exceptionally Perfect horses, but may have lower training and showing stats.

There's also Exceptional Show horses HH, I understand it as Yellow/C grade horses with 10.1 PT score, although by the same logic it doesn't explain why Exceptionally Perfect horses don't have 10.5 PT score instead of 10.4.

This Exceptional Producer already leveled off:

FE E9 G1 FireTear

IIRC I sold it exactly because of that.

As for the lined horses I think it would be the same as with foundational, except you don't know for sure, but you can compare the foal to its parents and siblings. But then breeding boost also complicates things because if you have a perfect and boosted parent, it will always test better than its foals, although I understand that if your foal passes SBA and has a boosted parent of the same sex, it means it's just as good as the parent before the boost.

From the FAQ:
SBA and *** parent Strict breeding advice will always pass a cap quality horse. *** horses can never produce a foal that passes breeding advice except for those cap quality foals. So if a horse passes strict breeding advice, and has a *** star/gold parent they are guaranteed to be at cap quality.

Please take this with the grain of salt because I'm still very new :D

Can you expand on this? I am learning new things everyday. Does this mean a boosted stallion will never produce a foal that is superior to sire or is it just more rare?
