• F1On August 8, 2016, the Issuer entered into a Series A Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with CSI Compressco Investment LLC ("CSI Investment") and the other purchasers party thereto (the "Purchasers"), whereby the Purchasers purchased 874,891 Series A Convertible Preferred Units representing limited partner interests in the Issuer (the "Preferred Units"). The Preferred Units were issued and sold to the Purchasers on August 8, 2016 (the "Closing"). The holders of the Preferred Units (each, a "Preferred Unitholder") will receive quarterly distributions in kind in additional Preferred Units, equal to an annual rate of 11.00% (2.75% per quarter), subject to certain adjustments. The additional 13,759 Preferred Units reported on this Form 4 were acquired by CSI Investment as quarterly, in kind distributions issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

The conversion price (the "Conversion Price") on any Conversion Date shall equal the least of (i) $12.00, subject to certain adjustments, (ii) 93.5% of the arithmetic average of the volume-weighted average trading price (the "VWAP") on each trading day during the twenty (20) trading day period immediately prior to such Conversion Date (subject to certain adjustments), and (iii) the arithmetic average of the VWAPs on each trading day during the

In addition, upon certain events involving a change of control, each holder of the Preferred Units may elect to (a) convert its Preferred Units to Common Units at the then-applicable conversion rate, (b) if the Partnership is not the surviving entity (or if the Partnership is the surviving entity, but its Common Units will cease to be listed on a National Securities Exchange), require the Partnership or the acquiring entity, as applicable, to either (i) deliver
• F4a security in the surviving entity that has substantially similar rights, preferences and privileges as the Preferred Units or (ii) redeem each Preferred Unit held by such Preferred Unitholder at a redemption price per Preferred Unit equal to 120% of the greater of (A) $11.43 and (B) the intrinsic value of the Preferred Units determined as of the applicable date of determination or (c) if the Partnership is the surviving entity and its Common Units continue to be listed or admitted to trading on a National Securities Exchange, continue to hold the Preferred Units.
