Item 8.01

Other Events.

On August 21, 2018, the board of directors (the “Board”) of Crestwood Equity GP LLC (the “General Partner”), the general partner of Crestwood Equity Partners LP (the “Partnership”), approved the Crestwood Equity Partners LP Employee Unit Purchase Plan (the “EUPP”). The EUPP became effective upon its approval by the Board (the “Effective Date”). The EUPP authorizes 1,500,000 common units (subject to adjustment as provided in the EUPP) representing limited partnership interests in the Partnership (“Common Units”) to be available for purchase by full-time employees of the General Partner, the Partnership or their respective affiliates, but excluding any employee covered by a collective bargaining agreement unless such bargaining agreement provides for such Employee’s participation in the EUPP, through accumulated payroll deductions (each, an “Employee”).

Under the terms of the EUPP, an Employee may elect to defer up to 10% (in whole percentages) of such Employee’s cash base salary or wages, not to exceed $25,000 for any calendar year, and have such amount applied towards the purchase of Common Units. Additionally, the General Partner may match an Employee’s cash base salary or wage deferrals by an amount up to 10% of such deferrals (an “Employer Match Amount”) and have such Employer Match Amount applied towards the purchase of additional Common Units.

The EUPP generally provides that during each Purchase Period (defined in the EUPP as the 10-day period following each calendar quarter) the General Partner, will purchase for an Employee the maximum number of whole Common Units that can be acquired (using the closing sales price as reported in The Wall Street Journal of a Common Unit on the applicable date of purchase, or if there is no trading in Common Units on such date, on the next preceding date on which there is trading) based on the sum of (i) the funds withheld from an Employee’s wages pursuant to the terms of the EUPP and (ii) the Employee’s applicable Employer Match Amount.

The foregoing description of the EUPP in this Current Report on Form 8-K does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the EUPP, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
