I would suggest:
EPEL 6 packages is a complimentary and compatible add-on repository and provides additional packages for RHEL 6 or compatible rebuilds and does not replace any RHEL 6 packages.

Sounds good to me. :)
Englishy wordsmithing:
The collection of EPEL 6 packages is a complementary and compatible add-on repository for RHEL 6 or compatible rebuilds. It provides additional packages and does not replace any RHEL 6 packages. EPEL is a community project, maintained and supported by volunteers via Bugzilla and mailing lists. It is part of the Fedora Project and is not commercially supported by Red Hat.
We should use "supplementary" instead of "complementary". There's a subtle difference in the meanings: the former connotes that a thing is additional to the whole, whereas the latter connotes that the whole is not complete without the thing.
Also, "Red Hat, Inc."?
