The paper you reference is this one (included for other on the list, since
I had trouble finding it on the link you provided):

%A T. Steinbrecher
%A J. Latzer
%A D.A. Case
%T Revised AMBER Parameters for Bioorganic Phosphates
%J J. Chem. Theory Comput.
%V 8
%P 4405-4412
%D 2012

These phosphate calcualations used RESP charges for the simplest phosphates,
so those charges are the ones that are compatible with the LJ parameters
discussed in the paper. RESP charges are far from perfect, but are likely
to be better than am1bcc or abchg2 for this sort of ion.

...hope this helps...dac
