CSI Compressco’s General Partner is owned by Spartan Energy Partners LP. Concurrent with this announcement we are providing qualified notice to brokers and nominees that hold CSI Compressco LP units on behalf of non-US investors as provided for under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1446-4(b)(4) and (d) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.1446(f)-4(c)(2)(iii). Please note that one hundred percent (100%) of CSI Compressco LP’s distributions to foreign investors are attributable to income that is effectively connected with a United States trade or business. Accordingly, all of CSI Compressco LP’s distributions to foreign investors are subject to federal tax withholding at the highest applicable effective tax rate. Nominees, and not CSI Compressco LP, are treated as withholding agents responsible for withholding distributions received by them on behalf of foreign investors. For purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1446(f)-4(c)(2)(iii), brokers and nominees should treat one hundred percent (100%) of the distributions as being in excess of cumulative net income for purposes of determining the amount to withhold.
