HOUSTON, TEXAS - July 31, 2013 - Niska Gas Storage Partners LLC (NYSE:NKA) ("Niska" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that its distribution reinvestment plan (the "Plan") is now open for enrollment for owners of its common units.  The Plan became effective on July 31, 2013.  The Plan provides a simple and convenient means for eligible holders to invest in the Company's common units.  Only registered holders of the Company's common units may directly participate in the Plan.  A registered holder is a holder whose name is recorded on the Company's register as the person who has the rights, benefits and responsibilities of ownership.  If you own common units that are registered in someone else's name (for example, a bank, broker or trustee), the Plan allows you to participate through such person, should they elect to participate, without having to withdraw your common units from such bank, broker or trustee. If your broker or bank elects not to participate in the Plan on your behalf, you can participate by withdrawing your common units from such bank or broker and registering your common units in your name. The price for new common units purchased with reinvested distributions will be the average of the high and low trading prices of the common units on the New York Stock Exchange-Composite Transactions for the five trading days immediately preceding the investment date, less a discount ranging from 0% to 5%. The discount is initially set at 0%; therefore, the initial purchase price for authorized but unissued common units purchased with reinvested distributions will be 100% of such average trading price. (Note: If you participate in the Plan through your broker, you should consult with your broker to determine if your broker will charge you a service fee.)

The Company has appointed American Stock Transfer & Trust Company LLC to administer the Plan (the "Administrator").  To participate in the Plan, you must enroll in the Plan online by following the enrollment procedures specified on the Administrator's website at www.amstock.com or by completing and signing an authorization form and returning it to the Administrator.   Participation will begin promptly after your authorization is received.  Participation in the Plan is voluntary and if you elect to participate in the Plan, you may terminate your participation in the Plan at any time.

You should read carefully the prospectus describing the Plan before deciding to participate in the Plan. A copy of the prospectus relating to the Plan has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. For more information about the Plan, or to request or download a copy of the detailed Plan Prospectus or the Authorization Form, please contact the Administrator by phone at 1-866-668-8559 or by visiting their website at www.amstock.com.  A copy of the Plan Prospectus will also be posted on the Company's website at www.niskapartners.com in the Investor Center section.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the common units described in this press release, nor shall there be any sale of these common units in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
