DALLAS, Sept. 18, 2020 - Cushing® Asset Management, LP, and Swank Capital, LLC, announce an upcoming interim change to the constituents of The Cushing® 30 MLP Index (the "Index"). On July 26, 2020, Index constituent CNX Midstream Partners LP (NYSE: CNXM) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Merger Agreement") with CNX Resources Corp. (NYSE: CNX) and affiliated companies that would result in CNXM common units ceasing to be publicly traded, subject to the approval of the holders of CNXM common units and Class B units. Entities representing a majority of CNXM common units and Class B units have agreed to deliver written consents approving the Merger Agreement within the unitholder consent period, which may terminate as early as September 25, 2020. Per the Index's methodology guide, this event will result in a constituent replacement. Accordingly, after the market closes on September 25, 2020, and effective on September 28, 2020, Equitrans Midstream Corporation (NYSE: ETRN) will replace CNXM as a constituent of the Index at CNXM's then-current weight.
There will be no changes to the remaining constituents of the Index due to this event.
