Tax Authority</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Arial,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Arial,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Ecopetrol S.A. (BVC: ECOPETROL; NYSE: EC, the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;
or &ldquo;Ecopetrol&rdquo; and together with its subsidiaries, the &ldquo;Ecopetrol Group&rdquo;) informs that on May 29, 2025, the Direcci&oacute;n
de Impuestos y Aduanas Nacionales (the &ldquo;Tax Authority&rdquo;) notified Refiner&iacute;a de Cartagena S.A.S. (the &ldquo;Refinery&rdquo;)
of two resolutions mandating the Refinery to conduct correction assessments in relation to customs import declarations for gasoline. In
accordance with the Tax Authority&rsquo;s interpretation of the law, the Refinery owed approximately COP 1.0 trillion, plus estimated
interests to date of COP 2.1 trillion, for the import of gasoline between 2022 and 2024. On June 26, 2025, the Refinery filed the corresponding
motions for reconsideration against the aforementioned customs correction assessments.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Arial,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Arial,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The official assessments notified by the Tax Authority to the Refinery
reflect the continued differences in regulatory interpretation between the Tax Authority and the Ecopetrol Group&mdash;an issue that the
Refinery has detailed in its motions for reconsideration.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Arial,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Arial,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Considering that the Tax Authority has decided to apply its regulatory
interpretation, Ecopetrol and the Refinery have been making VAT payments on gasoline and diesel imports at the 19% rate since January
2025. It is important to note that these VAT payments do not affect Ecopetrol&rsquo;s and the Refinery&rsquo;s rights to challenge the
Tax Authority&rsquo;s interpretation at the appropriate time and before the relevant authorities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Arial,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Arial,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Ecopetrol and the Refinery reaffirm their commitment to fully comply
with their customs and tax obligations and will respect the decisions issued in this matter by the competent authorities, as stated on
May 6, 2025 in a communication published through this medium.</P>
