NOTICE
This statement is intended to serve as qualified notice to nominees as
provided for under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1446-4(b)(4) and (d)
given by a publicly traded partnership for the nominee to be treated as
a withholding agent. Please note that SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P.'s

Accordingly, all of SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P.'s distributions to a
nominee on behalf of foreign investors are subject to federal income tax
withholding at the highest marginal tax rate for individuals or
corporations, as applicable. Nominees, and not SunCoke Energy Partners,
L.P., are treated as the withholding agents responsible for withholding
on the distributions received by them on behalf of foreign investors.
