US Income Tax Withholding on MLP Distributions Received by Non-US Unit Holders

Publicly traded partnerships that earn net income in a calendar year that is effectively connected with the conduct of a US trade or business are generally required to withhold US income tax from distributions paid to foreign persons. The portion of our quarterly cash distributions that are paid by CQP to foreign persons will generally be subject to US withholding tax. Nominees receiving quarterly cash distributions from us that are otherwise subject to US income tax withholding which are to be paid directly to (or for the account of) any foreign person directly by such nominees, are treated as the tax withholding agent with respect to our quarterly cash distributions and the obligation to withhold tax from such distributions will be imposed solely on such nominees.

We have determined that the minimum quarterly cash distributions received by foreign persons in 2007 are exempt from US income tax withholding under applicable Internal Revenue service guidelines. Nominees receiving quarterly cash distributions from us on behalf of foreign persons in 2007 may rely on this determination in meeting their withholding tax obligations for the 2007 calendar year. We will provide similar guidance to nominees on an annual basis as required under the applicable Internal Revenue Service guidelines.
