Landmark Infrastructure Partners LP Completes Changes to its Legal Structure

EL SEGUNDO, Calif., Aug. 01, 2017 -- Landmark Infrastructure Partners LP (the “Partnership”) (NASDAQ:LMRK) announced today the completion of changes to its legal structure which are designed to simplify tax reporting for unitholders, substantially eliminate unrelated business taxable income (“UBTI”) allocated by the Partnership to tax-exempt investors, including individuals investing through tax-deferred accounts such as individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”), and ultimately broaden the Partnership’s potential investor base.

For investors purchasing units after July 2017, the Schedule K-1 received for the 2017 tax year will reflect the revised structure, and is expected to be simplified to include predominately dividends, other corporate distributions and related expenses, and is intended to eliminate the amount of state taxable income sourced to states other than the state of residence for most individual unitholders.  These changes are expected to apply to both the common and preferred units and are not expected to impact the presentation of the Partnership’s financial results.
