−Removed: The manufacturing exemptions are based on the fact that our natural gas compression equipment is used in the process of preparing natural gas for ultimate use and sale.
−Removed: As of September 30, 2020, we have recorded a $ 44.9 million accrued liability and $ 44.9 million related party receivable from ETO related to open audits with the Comptroller.
−Removed: During January 2020, we entered into a compromise and settlement agreement with the Comptroller for the audit of the USA Compression Predecessor for the period from August 2006 to December 2007 for $ 4.0 million, which was paid by the USA Compression Predecessor’s former owner in February 2020.
+Added: Certain taxing authorities have either claimed or issued an assessment that specific operational processes, which we and others in our industry regularly conduct, result in transactions that are subject to state sales taxes.
+Added: We and others in our industry have disputed these claims and assessments based on either existing tax statutes or published guidance by the taxing authorities.
+Added: We are currently in discussions with the Oklahoma Tax Commission (“OTC”) regarding its assessment.
+Added: We believe it is reasonably possible that we could incur losses related to this assessment depending on whether the OTC accepts our position that the transactions are not taxable and we ultimately lose any and all subsequent legal challenges to such determination by the OTC.
+Added: We estimate that the range of losses we could incur is from $ 0 to approximately $ 21.6 million, including penalty and interest.
+Added: The upper end of this range assumes that all compression services in Oklahoma are taxable, which we believe is remote.
+Added: As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we have recorded a $ 44.9 million accrued liability and $ 44.9 million related party receivable from ETO related to open audits with the Office of the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts.
