CROSSTEX ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2009
(Unaudited)

(1) General

Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “we”,”us”,”our”, “CEI” or the “Company” mean Crosstex Energy, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

CEI, a Delaware corporation formed on April 28, 2000, is engaged, through its subsidiaries, in the gathering, transmission, treating, processing and marketing of natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGLs). The Company connects the wells of natural gas producers in the geographic areas of its gathering systems in order to gather for a fee or purchase the gas production, treats natural gas to remove impurities to ensure that it meets pipeline quality specifications, processes natural gas for the removal of NGLs, transports natural gas and NGLs and ultimately provides natural gas and NGLs to a variety of markets. In addition, the Company purchases natural gas and NGLs from producers not connected to its gathering systems for resale and markets natural gas and NGLs on behalf of producers for a fee.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Company, its majority owned subsidiaries and Crosstex Energy, L.P. (herein referred to as the Partnership or CELP), a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership. The Partnership is included because CEI controls the general partner of the Partnership.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, are unaudited and do not include all the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been made and are of a recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed herein. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated financial statements for the prior years to conform to the current presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

(a) Management’s Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

(b) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141R, “Business Combinations” (SFAS 141R) and SFAS No. 160,“Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”(SFAS 160). SFAS 141R requires most identifiable assets, liabilities, non-controlling interests and goodwill acquired in a business combination to be recorded at “full fair value.” The Statement applies to all business combinations, including combinations among mutual entities and combinations by contract alone. Under SFAS 141R, all business combinations will be accounted for by applying the acquisition method. SFAS 141R is effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008. SFAS 160 will require non-controlling interests (previously referred to as minority interests) to be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability or other item outside of permanent equity. SFAS 160 was adopted January 1, 2009 and comparative period information has been recast to classify non-controlling interests in equity and attribute net income and other comprehensive income to non-controlling interests.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,“Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”(SFAS 161). SFAS 161 requires entities to provide greater transparency about how and why the entity uses derivative instruments, how the instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS 133, and how the instruments and related hedged items affect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the entity. SFAS 161 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. SFAS 161 was adopted effective January 1, 2009. Required disclosures were added to Note 8.

CROSSTEX ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”(SFAS 162) with an effective date of January 1, 2009. SFAS 162 was intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. SFAS 162 has been superseded by SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”(the Codification) released July 1, 2009. The Codification will become the exclusive authoritative reference for nongovernmental U. S. GAAP for use in financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, except for Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules and interpretive releases, which are also authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The change establishes nongovernmental U.S. GAAP into the authoritative Codification and guidance that is non-authoritative. The contents of the Codification will carry the same level of authority, eliminating the four-level GAAP hierarchy previously set forth in Statement 162. The Codification will supersede all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative. The Company will be revising all GAAP references to reflect the Codification for the quarter ending September 30, 2009.

In June 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position FSP EITF 03-6-1 (the FSP) which requires unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents to be treated asparticipating securitiesas defined in EITF Issue No. 03-6,“Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128,”and, therefore, included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share under the two-class method described in FASB Statement No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” The FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those years. The Company adopted the FSP effective January 1, 2009 and adjusted all prior reporting periods to conform to the requirements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (SFAS 167).”SFAS 167 amends the guidance in FASB Interpretation 46R related to the consolidation of variable interest entities or VIEs. It requires reporting entities to evaluate former Qualifying Special Purpose Entities or QSPEs for consolidation, changes the approach to determining a VIE’s primary beneficiary from a quantitative assessment to a qualitative assessment designed to identify a controlling financial interest, and increases the frequency of required reassessments to determine whether a company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. It also clarifies, but does not significantly change, the characteristics that identify a VIE. This Statement requires additional year-end and interim disclosures for public and nonpublic companies that are similar to the disclosures required by FSP FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8, “Disclosures by Public Entities (Enterprises) about Transfers of Financial Assets and Interests in Variable Interest Entities.” The Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009 and for subsequent interim and annual reporting periods. The Company does not expect this statement to have a significant impact to its financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 165, “Subsequent Events,” that is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009 and addresses accounting and disclosure requirements related to subsequent events. The statement requires management to evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued. Companies are required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The Company has taken this statement into consideration.

The FASB recently issued Staff Position FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requiring publicly traded companies, as defined in Opinion 28, to disclose the fair value of financial instruments within the scope of FASB Statement No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” in interim financial statements, adding to the current requirement to make those disclosures in annual financial statements. The Staff Position is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company has added the required footnote disclosure.

(2) Assets Held for Sale and Asset Disposition

As part of the Partnership’s strategy to increase liquidity in response to the tightening financial markets, the Partnership has sold and is also marketing for sale certain non-strategic assets.

During the six months ended June 30, 2009 the Partnership sold the Arkoma system to an unrelated third party for approximately $10.6 million. The asset had been impaired by $2.6 million in December 2008 to its fair value in anticipation of a first quarter disposition. The related loss on the sale recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $0.4 million.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

In addition to the sale of the Arkoma system, the Partnership entered into an agreement in May 2009 to sell its assets in Mississippi, Alabama and south Texas for $220.0 million. The sale closed on August 6, 2009 and the Partnership recognized a gain of approximately $98.0 million. Sales proceeds, net of transaction costs and other obligations associated with the sale, of $212.0 million were used to repay long-term debt. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2009 reflects these assets as held for sale. The assets and liabilities consisted of the following as of June 30, 2009 (in thousands):

Midstream
Current assets	$	53,029
Property and equipment		110,029
Current liabilities		(46,477	)

Current assets	$	272

Total assets held for sale	$	122,469

The revenues, operating expenses, depreciation and amortization expense and an allocated interest expense related to the operations of the assets held for sale have been segregated from continuing operations and reported as discontinued operations for all periods. No general and administrative expenses have been allocated to income from discontinued operations. Following are revenues and income from discontinued operations (in thousands):

Credit Facility.As of June 30, 2009, the Partnership had a bank credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $1.181 billion that matures in June 2011. As of June 30, 2009, $981.2 million was outstanding under the bank credit facility, including $114.4 million of letters of credit, leaving approximately $199.8 million available for future borrowing.

Obligations under the bank credit facility are secured by first priority liens on all of the Partnership’s material pipeline, gas gathering and processing assets, all material working capital assets and a pledge of all of the Partnership’s equity interests in substantially all of its subsidiaries, and rankpari passuin right of payment with the senior secured notes. The bank credit facility is guaranteed by certain of its material subsidiaries. The Partnership may prepay all loans under the credit facility at any time without premium or penalty (other than customary LIBOR breakage costs), subject to certain notice requirements.

On February 27, 2009, the Partnership entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Consent (the “Sixth Amendment”) to its credit facility with the bank lending group. Under the Sixth Amendment, borrowings bear interest at the Partnership’s option at the administrative agent’s reference rate plus an applicable margin or London Interbank Offering Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margins for the Partnership’s interest rate and letter of credit fees vary quarterly based on the Partnership’s leverage ratio as defined by the credit facility (the “Leverage Ratio” being generally computed as total funded debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain other non-cash charges) and are as follows:

	Bank						Letter
	Reference			LIBOR			of
	Rate			Rate			Credit			Commitment
Leverage Ratio	Advances(a)			Advances(b)			Fees(c)			Fees(d)
Greater than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00		3.00	%		4.00	%		4.00	%		0.50	%
Greater than or equal to 4.25 to 1.00 and less than 5.00 to 1.00		2.50	%		3.50	%		3.50	%		0.50	%
Greater than or equal to 3.75 to 1.00 and less than 4.25 to 1.00		2.25	%		3.25	%		3.25	%		0.50	%
Less than 3.75 to 1.00		1.75	%		2.75	%		2.75	%		0.50	%

(a)	The applicable margins for the bank reference rate advances ranged from 0% to 0.25% under the bank credit facility prior to the Fifth and Sixth Amendments.
(b)	The applicable margins for the LIBOR rate advances ranged from 1.00% to 1.75% under the bank credit facility prior to the Fifth and Sixth Amendments.
(c)	The letter of credit fees ranged from 1.00% to 1.75% per annum plus a fronting fee of 0.125% per annum under the bank credit facility prior to the Fifth and Sixth Amendments.
(d)	The commitment fees ranged from 0.20% to 0.375% per annum on the unused amount of the credit facility under the bank credit facility prior to the Fifth and Sixth Amendments.

The Sixth Amendment also set a floor for the LIBOR interest rate of 2.75% per annum. The Partnership’s applicable margins for its interest rate and letter of credit (LC) fees during the first half of 2009 have been at the high end of these ranges and, based on the Partnership’s forecasted leverage ratios for the last half of 2009, it expects the applicable margins to be at the high end of these ranges for interest rate and LC fees.

Pursuant to the Sixth Amendment, the Partnership must pay a leverage fee if it does not prepay debt and permanently reduce the banks’ commitments and senior secured note borrowings by the cumulative amounts of $100.0 million on September 30, 2009, $200.0 million on December 31, 2009 and $300.0 million on March 31, 2010. If the Partnership fails to meet any de-leveraging target, the Partnership must pay a leverage fee equal to the product of the aggregate commitments outstanding under its bank credit facility and the outstanding amounts of the senior secured note agreement on such date, and 1.0% on September 30, 2009, 1.0% on December 31, 2009 and 2.0% on March 31, 2010. This leverage fee will accrue on the applicable date, but not be payable until the Partnership refinances its bank credit facility. The disposition of Mississippi, Alabama and south Texas assets that closed on August 6, 2009 satisfied the September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009 de-leveraging targets.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

Under the Sixth Amendment, the maximum Leverage Ratio (measured quarterly on a rolling four-quarter basis) is as follows:

• 8.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2009;

• 8.50 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2009;

• 8.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2010;

• 6.65 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2010;

• 5.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2010;

• 5.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2010;

• 4.50 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2011 through March 31, 2012; and

• 4.25 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2012 and thereafter.

The minimum cash interest coverage ratio (as defined in the agreement, measured quarterly on a rolling four-quarter basis) is as follows under the Sixth Amendment:

• 1.50 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2009;

• 1.30 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2009;

• 1.15 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2009;

• 1.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2010;

• 1.50 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2010;

• 1.75 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2010; and

• 2.50 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2011, and thereafter.

Under the Sixth Amendment, no quarterly distributions may be paid to unitholders of the Partnership unless the PIK notes (as defined below) have been repaid and the Leverage Ratio is less than 4.25 to 1.00. If the Leverage Ratio is between 4.00 to 1.00 and 4.25 to 1.00, the Partnership may make quarterly distributions of up to $0.25 per unit if the PIK notes have been repaid. If the Leverage Ratio is less than 4.00 to 1.00, the Partnership may make quarterly distributions to unitholders from available cash as provided by the partnership agreement if the PIK notes have been repaid. The PIK notes are due six months after the earlier of the refinancing or maturity of its bank credit facility. Based on the Partnership’s forecasted leverage ratios for 2009 and the Partnership’s near term ability to refinance its bank credit facility, it does not anticipate making quarterly distributions during 2009 other than the distribution paid in February 2009 related to fourth quarter 2008 operating results. The Partnership will not be able to make distributions to its unitholders in future periods if the leverage ratio does not improve.

The Sixth Amendment also limits the Partnership’s annual capital expenditures (excluding maintenance capital expenditures) to $120.0 million in 2009 and $75.0 million in 2010 and each year thereafter (with unused amounts in any year being carried forward to the next year). The Partnership does not intend to make any acquisitions during 2009.

The Sixth Amendment also revised the terms for mandatory repayment of outstanding indebtedness from asset sales and proceeds from incurrence of unsecured debt and equity issuances. Proceeds from debt issuances and from equity issuances not required to prepay indebtedness are considered to be “Excess Proceeds” under the amended bank credit agreement. The Partnership may retain all Excess Proceeds and the Partnership may only make acquisitions using Excess Proceeds. Net proceeds from asset dispositions are required for prepayment at 100% regardless of the leverage ratio. The following table sets forth the amended prepayment terms:

	% of Net Proceeds			% of Net Proceeds
	from Debt			from Equity
	Issuances Required			Issuance Required
Leverage Ratio*	for Prepayment			for Prepayment
Greater than or equal to 4.50		100	%		50	%
Greater or equal to 3.50 and less than 4.50		50	%		25	%
Less than 3.50		0	%		0	%

* The Leverage Ratio is to be adjusted to give effect to proceeds from debt or equity issuance and the use of such proceeds for each proportional level of Leverage Ratio.

12

CROSSTEX ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

The prepayments are to be applied pro rata based on total debt (including letter of credit obligations) outstanding under the bank credit agreement and the total debt outstanding under the note agreements described below. Any prepayments of advances on the bank credit facility from proceeds from asset sales, debt or equity issuances will permanently reduce the borrowing capacity or commitment under the facility in an amount equal to 100% of the amount of the prepayment. Any such commitment reduction will not reduce the banks’ $300.0 million commitment to issue letters of credit.

In addition, the bank credit facility contains various covenants that, among other restrictions, limit the Partnership’s ability to:

• incur indebtedness;

• grant or assume liens;

• make certain investments;

• sell, transfer, assign or convey assets, or engage in certain mergers or acquisitions;

• change the nature of its business;

• enter into certain commodity contracts;

• make certain amendments to its or the operating partnership’s partnership agreement; and

• engage in transactions with affiliates.

Each of the following will be an event of default under the bank credit facility:

• failure to pay any principal, interest, fees, expenses or other amounts when due;

• failure to observe any agreement, obligation, or covenant in the credit agreement, subject to cure periods for certain failures;

• certain judgments against the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries, in excess of certain allowances;

• certain ERISA events involving the Partnership or its subsidiaries;

• bankruptcy or other insolvency events;

• a change in control (as defined in the credit agreement); and

• the failure of any representation or warranty to be materially true and correct when made.

If an event of default relating to bankruptcy or other insolvency events occurs, all indebtedness under the Partnership’s bank credit facility will immediately become due and payable. If any other event of default exists under the bank credit facility, the lenders may accelerate the maturity of the outstanding obligations under the bank credit facility and exercise other rights and remedies.

The Partnership is subject to interest rate risk on the Partnership’s credit facility and has entered into interest rate swaps to reduce this risk. See Note 8 to the financial statements for a discussion of interest rate swaps.

Senior Secured Notes.On February 27, 2009, the Partnership amended its senior note agreement to (i) increase the maximum permitted leverage ratio and to lower the minimum interest coverage ratio it must maintain consistent with the ratios under the Sixth Amendment to the bank credit facility, (ii) revise the mandatory prepayment terms consistent with the terms under the Sixth Amendment to the bank credit facility, (iii) increase the interest rate it pays on the senior secured notes and (iv) provide for the payment of a leverage fee consistent with the terms of the bank credit facility.

Under the amended senior notes agreement, the senior secured notes will accrue additional interest of 1.25% per annum (the “PIK notes”) in the form of an increase in the principal amount unless the Partnership’s leverage ratio is less than 4.25 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. All PIK notes will be payable six months after the maturity of the bank credit facility, which is currently scheduled to mature in June 2011, or six months after refinancing of such indebtedness if prior to the maturity date.

13

CROSSTEX ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

Per the terms of the amended senior notes agreement the interest rate payable in cash on its senior secured notes will increase by 1.25% per annum for any quarter if its leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to 4.25 to 1.00. In addition, commencing on June 30, 2012, the interest rate payable in cash on the Partnership’s senior secured notes will increase by 0.50% per annum for any quarter if its leverage as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00, but this incremental interest will not accrue if the Partnership is paying the incremental 1.25% per annum of interest described in the preceding sentence.

The Partnership recognized a $4.7 million loss on extinguishment of debt during the six months ended June 30, 2009 due to the February 2009 amendment to the senior secured note agreement. The modifications to this agreement pursuant to this amendment were substantive as defined in EITF Issue No. 96-19,“Debtor’s Accounting for a Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments”and were accounted for as the extinguishment of the old debt and the creation of new debt. As a result, the unamortized costs associated with the senior secured notes prior to the amendment as well as the fees paid to the senior secured noteholders for the February 2009 amendment were expensed during the six months ended June 30, 2009.

These notes represent the Partnership’s senior secured obligations and rankpari passuin right of payment with the bank credit facility. The notes are secured, on an equal and ratable basis with the Partnership’s obligations under the credit facility, by first priority liens on all of its material pipeline, gas gathering and processing assets, all material working capital assets and a pledge of all its equity interests in substantially all of the Partnership’s subsidiaries. The senior secured notes are guaranteed by the Partnership’s material subsidiaries.

The senior secured notes issued in 2003 are redeemable, at the Partnership’s option and subject to certain notice requirements, at a purchase price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount together with accrued interest, plus a make-whole amount determined in accordance with the senior secured note agreement. The senior secured notes issued in 2004, 2005 and 2006 provide for a call premium of 103.5% of par beginning three years after issuance at rates declining from 103.5% to 100.0%.

If an event of default resulting from bankruptcy or other insolvency events occurs, the senior secured notes will become immediately due and payable. If any other event of default occurs and is continuing, holders of at least 50.1% in principal amount of the outstanding notes may at any time declare all the notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable. If an event of default relating to the nonpayment of principal, make-whole amounts or interest occurs, any holder of outstanding notes affected by such event of default may declare all the notes held by such holder to be immediately due and payable. The senior secured note agreement relating to the notes contains substantially the same covenants and events of default as the Partnership’s bank credit facility.

The Partnership was in compliance with all debt covenants as of June 30, 2009 and expects to be in compliance with debt covenants for the next twelve months.

Intercreditor and Collateral Agency Agreement.In connection with the execution of the bank credit facility and the senior secured note agreement, the lenders under the Partnership’s bank credit facility and the purchasers of the senior secured notes have entered into an Intercreditor and Collateral Agency Agreement, which has been acknowledged and agreed to by the Partnership and its subsidiaries. This agreement appointed Bank of America, N.A. to act as collateral agent and authorized Bank of America to execute various security documents on behalf of the lenders under the Partnership’s bank credit facility and the Partnership’s purchasers of the senior secured notes. This agreement specifies various rights and obligations of lenders under the bank credit facility, holders of the senior secured notes and the other parties thereto in respect of the collateral securing the Partnership’s obligations under the Partnership’s bank credit facility and the senior secured note agreement. On February 27, 2009, the holders of the Partnership’s senior secured notes and a majority of the banks under its bank credit facility entered into an amendment to the Intercreditor and Collateral Agency Agreement, which provides that the PIK notes and certain treasury management obligations will be secured by the collateral for its bank credit facility and the senior secured notes, but only paid with proceeds of collateral after obligations under its bank credit facility and the senior secured notes are paid in full.

(4) Obligations Under Capital Lease

The Partnership entered into 9 and 10-year capital leases for certain equipment. Assets under capital leases as of June 30, 2009 are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Equipment	$	30,577

(5) Certain Provisions of the Partnership Agreement

(a) Conversion of Senior Subordinated Series D Units

On March 23, 2007, the Partnership issued an aggregate of 3,875,340 senior subordinated series D units representing limited partner interests of the Partnership in a private offering. These senior subordinated series D units converted into common units representing limited partner interests of the Partnership on March 23, 2009. Since the Partnership did not make distributions of available cash from operating surplus, as defined in the partnership agreement, of at least $0.62 per unit on each outstanding common unit for the quarter ending December 31, 2008, each senior subordinated series D unit converted into 1.05 common units for a total issuance of 4,069,106 common units.

(b) Cash Distributions from the Partnership

Unless restricted by the terms of its credit facility, the Partnership must make distributions of 100.0% of available cash, as defined in the partnership agreement, within 45 days following the end of each quarter. Distributions will generally be made 98.0% to the common and subordinated unitholders and 2.0% to the general partner, subject to the payment of incentive distributions as described below to the extent that certain target levels of cash distributions are achieved. Under the quarterly incentive distribution provisions, generally the Partnership’s general partner is entitled to 13.0% of amounts the Partnership distributes in excess of $0.25 per unit, 23.0% of the amounts it distributes in excess of $0.3125 per unit and 48.0% of amounts it distributes in excess of $0.375 per unit. No incentive distributions were earned by the Company as general partner for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. Incentive distributions totaling $12.3 million and $24.1 million were earned by the Company as general partner for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively.

See Note 3 for a description of the Partnership’s credit facilities which restrict the Partnership’s ability to make future distributions.

(c) Allocation of Partnership Income

Net income for the general partner consists of incentive distributions as described in Note 5(b) above, a deduction for stock- based compensation attributable to CEI’s stock options and restricted shares and 2% of the original Partnership’s net income adjusted for the CEI stock-based compensation specifically allocated to the general partner. The remaining net income after incentive distributions and CEI-related stock-based compensation is allocated pro rata between the 2% general partner interest and the common units. The following table reflects the Company’s general partner share of the Partnership’s net income (loss) (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
	2009			2008			2009			2008
Income allocation for incentive distributions	$	—		$	12,272		$	—		$	24,098
Stock-based compensation attributable to CEI’s stock options and restricted shares		(760	)		(1,573	)		(1,406	)		(2,608	)
2% general partner interest in net income (loss)		(191	)		702			(485	)		561
General Partner share of net income	$	(951	)	$	11,401		$	(1,891	)	$	22,051

CROSSTEX ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

The Company also owns limited partner common units in the Partnership. The Company’s share of the Partnership’s net income (loss) attributable to its limited partner common units was a net loss of $3.1 million and net income of $3.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and a net loss of $8.3 million and net income of $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

(6) Earnings per Share and Anti-Dilutive Computations

Basic earnings per share was computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. The computation of diluted earnings per share further assumes the dilutive effect of common share options and restricted shares. All common share equivalents were anti-dilutive in the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 because of the net loss in those periods.

FSP EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities,” was issued in May 2008 with an effective date for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those years. This FSP requires unvested share-based payments that entitle employees to receive non-forfeitable dividends to also be considered participating securities, as defined in EITF 03-6. The Company was impacted by this EITF and has calculated earnings attributable to unvested restricted shares and adjusted earnings per unit calculations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and the comparative three and six months ended June 30, 2008 to reflect implementation of the EITF.

The following table reflects the computation of basic earnings per share for the periods presented (in thousands except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended					Six Months Ended

All common share equivalents were anti-dilutive in the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 because the Company had a net loss in these periods.

(7) Employee Incentive Plans

(a) Long-Term Incentive Plans

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R,“Share-Based Compensation”(SFAS 123R) which requires compensation related to all stock-based awards, including stock options, be recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company and the Partnership each have similar share-based payment plans for employees, which are described below. Amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements with respect to these plans are as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2009		2008		2009		2008
Cost of share-based compensation charged to general and administrative expense	$	1,876	$	3,258	$	3,190	$	5,493

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

The Partnership issued performance-based restricted units in 2007 and 2008 to executive officers. The minimum level of performance-based awards is included in restricted units outstanding and is included in the current share-based compensation cost calculations at June 30, 2009. The achievement of greater than the minimum performance targets in the current business environment is less than probable. All performance-based awards are subject to reevaluation and adjustment until the restricted units vest.

The Partnership awarded 803,632 restricted unit grants during the three months ended June 30, 2009 to certain of the management team. Half of these units vest one year from the date of grant. The remaining fifty percent of the units are performance-based awards that vest one year from the date of grant if the Partnership achieves certain performance metrics. These performance-based units will vest if the Partnership’s 2009 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and certain other non-cash adjustments or EBITDA is (i) $220.0 million or greater, or (ii) $195.0 million or greater after making certain adjustments for commodity prices if unadjusted EBITDA is $170.0 million or greater. As of June 30, 2009, the Partnership expects to meet the performance objectives stated in the grant. The performance-based units are shown in the balance of outstanding restricted units and included in the current share-based compensation calculations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

A summary of the restricted units aggregate intrinsic value (market value at vesting date) and fair value (market value at date of grant) of units vested during the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 are provided below (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

Fair value of units vested	$	571	$	734	$	2,931	$	5,374

As of June 30, 2009, there was $5.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted units. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years.

(c) Partnership Unit Options

In May 2009, the Partnership’s unitholders approved an amendment to the Partnership’s long-term incentive plan to allow an option exchange program. This option exchange program was offered to all eligible employees excluding executive officers and directors because options held by employees were “underwater,” meaning the exercise price of the options were higher than the current market price of the common units. The terms of the offer included an exchange ratio of 3 old options for 1 replacement option, with an exercise price of $4.80 per common unit (120% of the average closing sales price for five trading days prior to the date of grant) which will vest over 2 years (50% after year 1 and 50% after year 2). In June 2009, a total of 453 employees elected to exchange 1,032,403 old options for 344,319 replacement options pursuant to this option exchange program. There was no incremental compensation cost resulting from the modifications under this option exchange program.

There were no options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2009. There were no options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2009. A summary of the unit option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2009 is provided below:

(8) Derivatives

The Partnership manages exposure to interest rate risk and commodity price risk through the use of derivative instruments and hedging activities. The FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” (SFAS 161) in March 2008 requiring additional disclosures on derivative instruments that would provide insight into the reason for the use of derivative instruments, give transparency to the location of derivatives within the financial statements and the financial impact of the derivative activity and provide disclosure about credit risk related disclosures to provide additional information about liquidity. These disclosure requirements are in addition to those already required under SFAS No. 133,“Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”The Partnership has historically presented detailed information about derivative activities, but has updated the current disclosure to provide the requirements of SFAS 161.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Partnership is subject to interest rate risk on its credit facility and has entered into interest rate swaps to reduce this risk.

The Partnership entered into eight interest rate swaps prior to 2008. Each swap fixed the three month LIBOR rate, prior to credit margin, at the indicated rates for the specified amounts of related debt outstanding over the term of each swap agreement. In January 2008, the Partnership amended existing swaps with the counterparties in order to reduce the fixed rates and extend the terms of the existing swaps by one year and entered into one new swap. The table below reflects the swaps as amended:

							Notional Amounts

The Partnership had previously elected to designate all interest rate swaps (except the November 2006 swap) as cash flow hedges for SFAS No. 133 accounting treatment. Accordingly, unrealized gains and losses relating to the designated interest rate swaps were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. Immediately prior to the January 2008 amendments, these swaps were de-designated as cash flow hedges. The unrealized loss in accumulated other comprehensive income of $17.0 million at the de-designation date is being reclassified to earnings over the remaining original terms of the swaps using the effective loss of interest method. The related loss reclassified to earnings and included in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations as part of interest expense is $1.7 million for both three month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 is $3.4 million and $3.0 million, respectively.

The Partnership has elected not to designate any of the amended swaps or the new swap entered into in January 2008 as cash flow hedges for SFAS No. 133 treatment. Accordingly, unrealized gains and losses are recorded through the consolidated statement of operations in other income (expense) as part of interest expense, net, over the period hedged.

In September 2008, the Partnership entered into four additional interest rate swaps. The effect of the new interest rate swaps was to convert the floating rate portion of the original swaps on $450.0 million (all swaps except the January 22, 2008 swap that expired January 31, 2009) from three month LIBOR to one month LIBOR. The Partnership received a cash settlement in September 2008 of $1.4 million which represented the present value of the basis point differential between one month LIBOR and three month LIBOR.

The table below aligns the new swap, which receives one month LIBOR and pays three month LIBOR, with the original interest rate swaps.

Commodity Swaps

The Partnership manages its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices by hedging the impact of market fluctuations. Swaps are used to manage and hedge prices and location risk related to these market exposures. Swaps are also used to manage margins on offsetting fixed-price purchase or sale commitments for physical quantities of natural gas and NGLs.

The Partnership commonly enters into various derivative financial transactions which it does not designate as hedges. These transactions include swing swaps, third party on-system financial swaps, marketing financial swaps, storage swaps, basis swaps processing margin swaps, and liquids swaps. Swing swaps are generally short-term in nature (one month), and are usually entered into to protect against changes in the volume of daily versus first-of-month index priced gas supplies or markets. Third party on-system financial swaps are hedges that the Partnership enters into on behalf of its customers who are connected to its systems, wherein the Partnership fixes a supply or market price for a period of time for its customers, and simultaneously enters into the derivative transaction. Marketing financial swaps are similar to on-system financial swaps, but are entered into for customers not connected to the Partnership’s systems. Storage swaps transactions protect against changes in the value of gas that the Partnership has stored to serve various operational requirements. Basis swaps are used to hedge basis location price risk due to buying gas into the Partnership’s systems on one index and selling gas off that same system on a different index. Processing margin financial swaps are used to hedge fractionation spread risk at processing plants relating to the option to process or to bypass equity gas. Liquids swaps are used to hedge price risk on our percent of liquids (POL) contracts.

The remaining term of the contracts extend no later than December 2010 for derivatives, except for certain basis swaps that extend to March 2012. Changes in the fair value of the Partnership’s mark to market derivatives are recorded in earnings in the period the transaction is entered into. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income until the related anticipated future cash flow is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion is recorded in earnings immediately. Gains of $0.5 million have been reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings as a result of the discontinuance of cash flow hedges related to assets held for sale.

On all transactions where the Partnership is exposed to counterparty risk, the Partnership analyzes the counterparty’s financial condition prior to entering into an agreement, establishes limits and monitors the appropriateness of these limits on an ongoing basis. The Partnership primarily deals with two types of counterparties, financial institutions and other energy companies, when entering into financial derivatives on commodities. The Partnership has entered into Master International Swaps and Derivatives Association Agreements that allow for netting of swap contract receivables and payables in the event of default by either party. If the Partnership’s counterparties failed to perform under existing swap contracts, the Partnership’s maximum loss of $42.7 million would be reduced by $25.5 million due to the netting feature. If the counterparties failed to completely perform according to the terms of the contracts the maximum loss the Partnership would sustain is $3.5 million with financial institutions and $13.7 million with other energy companies, which represents the current gross fair value at June 30, 2009.

Natural Gas

As of June 30, 2009, an unrealized derivative fair value gain of $0.7 million related to cash flow hedges of gas price risk was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is expected to be reclassified into earnings through December 2009. The actual reclassification to earnings will be based on mark to market prices at the contract settlement date, along with the realization of the gain or loss on the related physical volume, which amount is not reflected above.

The settlement of cash flow hedge contracts related to July 2009 gas production increased gas revenue by approximately $0.1 million.

Liquids

As of June 30, 2009, an unrealized derivative fair value gain of $2.6 million related to cash flow hedges of liquids price risk was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Of this net amount, a $2.5 million gain is expected to be reclassified into earnings through June 2010. The actual reclassification to earnings will be based on mark to market prices at the contract settlement date, along with the realization of the gain or loss on the related physical volume, which amount is not reflected above.

Derivatives Other Than Cash Flow Hedges

Assets and liabilities related to third party derivative contracts, swing swaps, basis swaps, storage swaps and processing margin swaps are included in the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities and the profit and loss on the mark to market value of these contracts are recorded net as (gain) loss on derivatives in the consolidated statement of operations. The Partnership estimates the fair value of all of its energy trading contracts using actively quoted prices. The estimated fair value of energy trading contracts by maturity date was as follows (in thousands):

	Maturity Periods

(9) Fair Value Measurements

SFAS No. 157,“Fair Value Measurements”(SFAS 157) sets forth a framework for measuring fair value and required disclosures about fair value measurements of assets and liabilities. Fair value under SFAS 157 is defined as the price at which an asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, use of unobservable prices or inputs are used to estimate the current fair value, often using an internal valuation model. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the item being valued.

SFAS 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Partnership’s derivative contracts primarily consist of commodity swaps and interest rate swap contracts which are not traded on a public exchange. The fair values of commodity swap contracts are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. The Partnership determines the value of interest rate swap contracts by utilizing inputs and quotes from the counterparties to these contracts. The reasonableness of these inputs and quotes is verified by comparing similar inputs and quotes from other counterparties as of each date for which financial statements are prepared. The Partnership’s contracts are all level two contracts under SFAS 157.

Fair value of derivative liabilities		40,068		40,068		51,281		51,281

The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities. The carrying value for the note receivable approximates the fair value because this note earns interest based on the current prime rate.

The Company’s long-term debt was comprised of borrowings under a revolving credit facility totaling $866.8 million and $784.0 million as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, which accrues interest under a floating interest rate structure. Accordingly, the carrying value of such indebtedness approximates fair value for the amounts outstanding under the credit facility. As of June 30, 2009, the Company also had borrowings totaling $476.3 million under senior secured notes with a weighted average interest rate of 10.5%. The fair value of these borrowings as of June 30, 2009 and December 30, 2008 were adjusted to reflect to current market interest rate for such borrowings as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

The fair value of derivative contracts included in assets or liabilities for risk management activities represents the amount at which the instruments could be exchanged in a current arms-length transaction adjusted for credit risk of the Company and/or the counterparty as required under SFAS 157.

(11) Other Income

The Partnership recorded $7.6 million in other income during the six months ended June 30, 2008, primarily from the settlement of disputed liabilities that were assumed with an acquisition.

(12) Income Tax

The Company has recorded a deferred tax asset in the amount of $8.5 million and $3.9 million relating to the difference between its book and tax basis of its investment in the Partnership as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. Because the Company can only realize this deferred tax asset upon the liquidation of the Partnership and to the extent of capital gains, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against this deferred tax asset. The deferred tax asset and the related valuation allowance increased $4.6 million during the first quarter of 2009 due to the conversion of the Partnership’s senior subordinated series D units to common units. The income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2009 reflects a tax benefit of $3.9 million for current period loss from continuing operations offset by the $4.6 million income tax expense attributable to the increase in valuation allowance. Unrecognized tax benefits increased $0.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009, and the increase, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.

(13) Commitments and Contingencies

(a) Employment Agreements

Certain members of management of the Company are parties to employment contracts with the general partner of the Partnership. The employment agreements provide those senior managers with severance payments in certain circumstances and prohibit each such person from competing with the general partner of the Partnership or its affiliates for a certain period of time following the termination of such person’s employment.

(b) Other

The Partnership is involved in various litigation and administrative proceedings arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, any liabilities that may result from these claims would not individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations.

On November 15, 2007, Crosstex CCNG Processing Ltd. (“Crosstex Processing”), the Partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiary received a demand letter from Denbury Onshore, LLC (“Denbury”), asserting a claim for breach of contract and seeking payment of approximately $11.4 million in damages. On April 15, 2008, the parties mediated the matter unsuccessfully. On December 4, 2008, Denbury initiated formal arbitration proceedings against Crosstex Processing, Crosstex Energy Services, L.P., Crosstex North Texas Gathering, L.P., and Crosstex Gulf Coast Marketing, Ltd., seeking $11.4 million and additional unspecified damages. Denbury has recently amended its filings alleging fraud and seeking punitive damages. On December 23, 2008, Crosstex Processing filed an answer denying Denbury’s allegations and a counterclaim seeking a declaratory judgment that its processing plant is uneconomic under the Processing Contract. Crosstex Energy, Crosstex Marketing, and Crosstex Gathering also filed an answer denying Denbury’s allegations and asserting that they are improper parties as Denbury’s claim is for breach of the Processing Contract and none of these entities is a party to that agreement. Crosstex Gathering also filed a counterclaim seeking approximately $40.0 million in damages for the value of the NGLs it is entitled to under its Gas Gathering Agreement with Denbury. A three-person arbitration panel has been named and discovery is in progress. Arbitration is scheduled for late 2009. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the ultimate outcome of this matter, the Partnership does not believe this will have a material adverse impact on its consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

The Partnership (or its subsidiaries) is defending a number of lawsuits filed by owners of property located near processing facilities or compression facilities constructed by the Partnership as part of its systems. The suits generally allege that the facilities create a private nuisance and have damaged the value of surrounding property. Claims of this nature have arisen as a result of the industrial development of natural gas gathering, processing and treating facilities in urban and occupied rural areas. Although it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcomes of these matters, the Partnership does not believe that these claims will have a material adverse impact on its consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

On July 22, 2008, SemStream, L.P. and certain of its subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. As of July 22, 2008, SemStream, L.P. owed the Partnership approximately $6.2 million, including approximately $3.9 million for June 2008 sales and approximately $2.2 million for July 2008 sales. The Partnership believes the July sales of $2.2 million will receive “administrative claim” status in the bankruptcy proceeding. The debtor’s schedules acknowledge its obligation to Crosstex for an administrative claim in the amount of $2.2 million, but the allowance of the administrative claim status is still subject to approval of the bankruptcy court. The Partnership evaluated these receivables for collectability and provided a valuation allowance of $3.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2008 and $0.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2009.

(14) Segment Information

Identification of operating segments is based principally upon differences in the types and distribution channel of products. The Partnership’s reportable segments consist of Midstream and Treating. The Midstream division consists of the Partnership’s natural gas gathering and transmission operations and includes the south Louisiana processing and liquids assets, the gathering and transmission assets located in north Texas, the LIG pipelines and processing plants located in Louisiana and various other small systems. Also included in the Midstream division are the Partnership’s energy trading operations. The operations in the Midstream segment are similar in the nature of the products and services, the nature of the production processes, the type of customer, the methods used for distribution of products and services and the nature of the regulatory environment. The Treating division generates fees from its plants either through volume-based treating contracts or through fixed monthly payments. Segment data does not include assets held for sale.

The Partnership evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on operating revenues and segment profits. Corporate expenses include general partnership expenses associated with managing all reportable operating segments. Corporate assets consist principally of property and equipment, including software, for general corporate support, working capital and debt financing costs.

Summarized financial information from continuing operations concerning the Partnership’s reportable segments is shown in the following table.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

Overview

Crosstex Energy, Inc. is a Delaware corporation formed on April 28, 2000 to engage in the gathering, transmission, treating, processing and marketing of natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGLs) through its subsidiaries. On July 12, 2002, we formed Crosstex Energy, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, to acquire indirectly substantially all of the assets, liabilities and operations of its predecessor, Crosstex Energy Services, Ltd. Our assets consist almost exclusively of partnership interests in Crosstex Energy, L.P., a publicly traded limited partnership engaged in the gathering, transmission, treating, processing and marketing of natural gas and NGLs. These partnership interests consist of (i) 16,414,830 common units, representing approximately 33.5% of the limited partner interests in Crosstex Energy, L.P., and (ii) 100% ownership interest in Crosstex Energy GP, L.P., the general partner of Crosstex Energy, L.P., which owns a 2.0% general partner interest and all of the incentive distribution rights in Crosstex Energy, L.P.

Since we control the general partner interest in the Partnership, we reflect our ownership interest in the Partnership on a consolidated basis, which means that our financial results are combined with the Partnership’s financial results and the results of our other subsidiaries. We have no separate operating activities apart from those conducted by the Partnership, and our cash flows consist almost exclusively of distributions from the Partnership on the partnership interests we own. Our consolidated results of operations are derived from the results of operations of the Partnership and also include our gains on the issuance of units in the Partnership, deferred taxes, interest income (expense) and general and administrative expenses not reflected in the Partnership’s results of operation. Accordingly, the discussion of our financial position and results of operations in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” primarily reflects the operating activities and results of operations of the Partnership.

The Partnership has two industry segments, Midstream and Treating, with a geographic focus in the north Texas Barnett Shale area and in Louisiana. The Partnership’s Midstream division focuses on the gathering, processing, transmission and marketing of natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGLs), as well as providing certain producer services, while the Treating division focuses on the removal of contaminants from natural gas and NGLs to meet pipeline quality specifications. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, 83.9% of the Partnership’s gross margin was generated in the Midstream division, with the balance in the Treating division. The Partnership manages its operations by focusing on gross margin because its business is generally to purchase and resell natural gas for a margin, or to gather, process, transport, market or treat natural gas and NGLs for a fee. The Partnership buys and sells most of its natural gas at a fixed relationship to the relevant index price so margins are not significantly affected by changes in natural gas prices. In addition, the Partnership receives certain fees for processing based on a percentage of the liquids produced and enters into hedge contracts for its expected share of liquids produced to protect margins from changes in liquids prices.

The Partnership’s Midstream segment margins are determined primarily by the volumes of natural gas gathered, transported, purchased and sold through its pipeline systems and processed at its processing facilities and the volumes of NGLs handled at its fractionation facilities. Treating segment margins are largely a function of the number and size of treating plants in operation as well as fees earned for removing impurities at a non-operated processing plant. The Partnership’s Midstream segment generates revenues from five primary sources:

• purchasing and reselling or transporting natural gas on the pipeline systems it owns;

• processing natural gas at its processing plants and fractionating and marketing the recovered NGLs;

• treating natural gas at its treating plants;

• providing compression services; and

• providing off-system marketing services for producers.

With respect to the Partnership’s Midstream services, the Partnership generally gathers or transports gas owned by others through its facilities for a fee, or buys natural gas from a producer, plant, or shipper at either a fixed discount to a market index or a percentage of the market index, then transports and resells the natural gas. In purchase/sale transactions, the resale price is generally based on the same index price at which the gas was purchased, and, if the Partnership is to be profitable, at a smaller discount or larger premium to the index than was purchased. The Partnership attempts to execute all purchases and sales substantially concurrently, or enters into a future delivery obligation, thereby establishing the basis for the margin the Partnership will receive for each natural gas transaction. The Partnership’s gathering and transportation margins related to a percentage of the index price can be adversely affected by declines in the price of natural gas.

29

The Partnership also realizes gross margins in its Midstream segment from processing services primarily through three different contract arrangements: processing margins (margin), percentage of liquids (POL) or fee based. Under a margin contract arrangement the gross margins are higher during periods of high liquid prices relative to natural gas prices. Gross margin results under a POL contract are impacted only by the value of the liquids produced. Under fee based contracts margins are driven by throughput volume.

The Partnership generates treating revenues under three arrangements:

• a volumetric fee based on the amount of gas treated, which accounted for 6.4% and 10.9% of the operating income in the Treating division for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively;

• a fixed fee for operating the plant for a certain period, which accounted for 66.7% and 60.2% of the operating income in the Treating division for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively; or

• a fee arrangement in which the producer operates the plant, which accounted for 26.9% and 28.9% of the operating income in the Treating division for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Operating expenses are costs directly associated with the operations of a particular asset. Among the most significant of these costs are those associated with direct labor and supervision and associated transportation and communication costs, property insurance, ad valorem taxes, repair and maintenance expenses, measurement and utilities. These costs are normally fairly stable across broad volume ranges, and therefore do not normally decrease or increase significantly in the short term with decreases or increases in the volume of gas moved through the asset.

Recent Developments

Global financial markets and economic conditions have been, and continue to be, disrupted and volatile. Numerous events have severely restricted current liquidity in the capital markets throughout the United States and around the world. The ability to raise money in the debt and equity markets has diminished significantly and, if available, the cost of funds has increased substantially. One of the features driving investments in MLPs , including the Partnership, over the past few years has been the distribution growth offered by MLPs due to liquidity in the financial markets for capital investments to grow distributable cash flow through development projects and acquisitions. Growth opportunities have been and are expected to continue to be constrained by the lack of liquidity in the financial markets.

Conditions in the Partnership’s industry have continued to be challenging in 2009. For example:

• Prices of oil, natural gas and NGLs remain below the market price realized throughout most of 2008.

• As a result of lower NGL prices and the related fractionation spreads and POL fees, the Partnership’s processing margins in 2009 have been substantially lower than the processing margins realized in 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, approximately 26.7% of its gross margin was attributable to gas processing as compared to 36.9% of its gross margin for six months ended June 30, 2008.

• The decline in drilling activity by gas producers in the Partnership’s areas of operations that began during the fourth quarter of 2008 as a result of the global economic crisis has continued. Several of its customers, including one of its largest customers in the Barnett Shale, substantially reduced drilling activity during 2009 as compared to their drilling levels during 2008.

• Several offshore production platforms and pipelines that transport gas production to our Pelican, Eunice and Sabine Pass processing plants in south Louisiana were damaged by hurricanes Gustav and Ike, which came ashore in the Gulf Coast in September 2008. Most of the production from the pipeline systems supplying the Eunice and Sabine plants has been restored to pre-hurricane levels as of June 30, 2009 but processing volumes at the plants during the first half of 2009 were negatively impacted by lower pipeline system supplies. Processing volumes at the Pelican processing plant during the first half of 2009 were also negatively impacted by lower pipeline system supplies and one of the pipeline systems is not expected to be in service until mid-August when repairs are expected to be completed.

30

Despite the weaker commodity environment and reduced drilling activity, the Partnership is positioning itself to benefit from a recovering economy. In particular:

• The Partnership has adjusted its business strategy for 2009 to focus on maximizing its liquidity, maintaining a stable asset base and improving the profitability of its assets by increasing their utilization while controlling costs. The Partnership has also reduced its capital expenditures.

• The Partnership completed the disposition of certain non-strategic assets including the February 2009 sale of the Arkoma system for approximately $10.6 million and the August 2009 sale of the south Texas, Mississippi and Alabama properties for approximately $220.0 million, and it may consider marketing certain other non-strategic assets for sale during the last half of 2009.

• The Partnership amended its bank credit facility and its senior secured note agreements in February 2009 to negotiate terms that facilitate its compliance with debt covenants while it operate its assets during the current difficult economic conditions. The terms of the amended agreements allow the Partnership to maintain a higher level of leverage and to maintain a lower interest coverage ratio; however, its interest costs will increase and its ability to pay distributions and incur additional indebtedness are restricted when it is operating at higher leverage ratios.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2008

Gross Margin and Profit on Energy Trading Activities.Midstream gross margin was $78.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $80.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 2.1%. The decrease was realized primarily at the Partnership’s processing facilities which were negatively impacted by lower NGL prices than in the second quarter 2008, combined with a decline in inlet volumes. This decrease was partially offset by gross margin gains on the Partnership’s gathering and transmission systems due to expansion projects and increased throughput. Profit on energy trading activities increased for the comparative periods by approximately $0.6 million.

The weaker processing environment contributed to a significant decline in the gross margin for the processing plants in Louisiana for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The Riverside facility reported a margin decline of $4.7 million primarily due to a decrease in processed volumes. The Plaquemine, Gibson and Sabine Pass plants all experienced an inlet volume decrease and reported gross margin declines of $2.6 million, $2.1 million and $1.8 million, respectively. The Blue Water plant, which has been shut down for several months due to a change in pipeline operations, realized a gross margin decline of $1.5 million. A decrease in throughput volume on the east Texas system led to a gross margin decline of $1.3 million. The Arkoma system, which was sold in April 2009, created a negative gross margin variance of $0.7 million when compared to the same period in 2008. Increased throughput on the north Texas gathering and transmission systems contributed $6.8 million of gross margin growth for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The Eunice plant had a margin increase of $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 primarily due to improved contract terms and operational efficiencies. The LIG gathering and transmission system contributed margin growth of $2.6 million for the comparative periods due to the north Louisiana expansion.

31

Treating gross margin was $13.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $11.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, an increase of $2.2 million, or 19.3%. Treating plants, dew point control plants, and related equipment in service totaled 180 plants at both June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008. Timing, size and increased monthly fees on plants placed in service versus plants coming out of service and increased fees on existing month to month treating contracts make up $2.0 million of the increase. Field services provided to producers also contributed gross margin growth of $0.3 million for the comparable periods.

Operating Expenses.Operating expenses were $32.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $33.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 3.2%. The decrease is primarily attributable to the initiatives undertaken in late 2008 and early 2009 to reduce expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses.General and administrative expenses were $14.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $18.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, a decrease of $3.1 million, or 17.4%. The decrease is a result of strategic initiatives undertaken by the Partnership to reduce expenses and primarily relate to workforce reductions.

Gain on Sale of Property.The $1.4 million gain on property sold during the three months ended June 30, 2008 consisted of various small Treating and Midstream assets.

Gain/Loss on Derivatives.The Partnership had a gain on commodity derivatives of $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to a gain of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. The derivative transaction types contributing to the net gain are as follows (in millions):

Depreciation and Amortization.Depreciation and amortization expenses were $33.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $29.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, an increase of $4.6 million, or 15.6%. Midstream depreciation and amortization increased $4.9 million primarily due to the north Texas expansion and depreciation acceleration resulting from the abandonment of certain planned projects.

Interest Expense.Interest expense was $26.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, an increase of $24.1 million. Interest expense increased $8.5 million on the senior notes (including PIK interest) and the credit facility due to an increase in interest rates from the February 2009 amendments to the debt agreements. Additionally the increase primarily relates to interest rate derivatives which yielded a decline in mark to market income as well as an increase in realized expense due to the decrease in LIBOR rates. Net interest expense consists of the following (in millions):

Income Taxes.An income tax benefit of $1.7 million was generated for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to an income tax expense of $10.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2009 reflects a tax benefit of $1.7 million for current period loss. The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2008 reflects income tax expense of $9.8 million for current period income and $0.9 million related to the issuance of Partnership common units.

Gain on Issuance of Units of the Partnership.As a result of the Partnership issuing common units in April 2008 to unrelated parties at a price per unit greater than our equivalent carrying value, our share of net assets of the Partnership increased by $14.7 million and we recognized a gain on issuance of such units during the three months ended June 30, 2008.

Interest of Non-Controlling Partners in the Partnership’s Net Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations.The interest of non-controlling partners in the Partnership’s net loss increased by $9.3 million to a loss of $8.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to an income of $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 due to the changes shown in the following summary (in millions):

Discontinued Operations.As part of the Partnership’s strategy to increase liquidity in response to the worsening conditions in the financial and commodity markets, the Partnership has sold and has agreed to sell certain non-strategic assets. The Partnership sold its undivided 12.4% interest in the Seminole gas processing plant to a third party in November 2008. In addition, the Partnership entered into an agreement to sell its assets in Mississippi, Alabama and south Texas. The sale closed on August 6, 2009. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the results of operations related to the Seminole gas processing plant and the assets held for sale are presented in income from discontinued operations for the comparative periods in the statements of operations. Revenues, the related costs of operations, depreciation and amortization, and allocated interest are reflected in the income from discontinued operations. No general and administrative expenses have been allocated to income from discontinued operations. Following are the components of revenues and earnings from discontinued operations and operating data (dollars in millions):

	Three Months Ended

Six Months Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2008

Gross Margin and Profit on Energy Trading Activities.Midstream gross margin was $147.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $162.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, a decrease of $15.2 million, or 9.4%. The decrease was realized primarily at our processing facilities which were negatively impacted by lower NGL prices than in the first half of 2008, combined with a decline in inlet volumes. This decrease was partially offset by gross margin gains on our gathering and transmission systems due to expansion projects and increased throughput. Profit on energy trading activities increased for the comparative periods by approximately $0.4 million.

The weaker processing environment contributed to a significant decline in the gross margin for the processing plants in Louisiana for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Total gross margin for the region associated with natural gas processing activity was down $27.8 million compared to the same period in 2008. The most significant contributors to this decrease were the Plaquemine, Gibson and Riverside facilities which reported margin declines of $8.0 million, $7.4 million and $4.9 million, respectively. A decrease in throughput volume on the east Texas system led to a gross margin decline of $2.1 million. The processing facilities in the north Texas region, which were also impacted by a weaker NGL market, realized a gross margin decline of $1.7 million. The Arkoma system, which was sold in April 2009, created a negative gross margin variance of $1.3 million when compared to the same period in 2008. Increased throughput on the north Texas gathering and transmission systems contributed $17.1 million of gross margin growth for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The LIG gathering and transmission system contributed margin growth of $0.8 million for the comparative periods due to north Louisiana expansion.

Treating gross margin was $28.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $22.7 million for the same period in 2008, an increase of $5.5 million, or 24.1%. Treating plants, dew point control plants, and related equipment in service totaled 180 plants at both June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008. Timing, size and increased monthly fees on plants placed in service versus plants coming out of service and increased fees on existing month to month treating contracts make up $5.1 million of the increase. Field services provided to producers also contributed gross margin growth of $0.4 million for the comparative periods.

Operating Expenses.Operating expenses were $64.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $70.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, a decrease of $5.5 million, or 7.8%. The decrease is primarily attributable to initiatives undertaken in late 2008 and early 2009 to reduce expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses.General and administrative expenses were $29.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $34.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, a decrease of $4.4 million, or 12.8%. The decrease is primarily attributable to the following factors:

• $2.3 million decrease in stock-based compensation expense resulting from the reduction of estimated performance-based restricted units and restricted shares and a workforce reduction in January 2009;

• $1.8 million decrease in labor and benefits related to a workforce reduction in January 2009;

• $1.6 million decrease in various expenses, including professional fees and services, office supplies and expenses, travel and training resulting from initiatives undertaken in late 2008 and early 2009 to reduce expenses;

• $0.9 million increase in bad debt expense; and

• $0.4 million increase in exit and disposal expense resulting primarily from the additional costs associated with the cancelled relocation of our corporate headquarters.

Gain on Sale of Property.The $1.6 million gain on sale of property for the six months ended June 30, 2008 represents disposition of various small Treating and Midstream assets.

Gain/Loss on Derivatives.The Partnership had a gain on commodity derivatives of $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to a gain of $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The derivative transaction types contributing to the net gain are as follows (in millions):

Depreciation and Amortization.Depreciation and amortization expenses were $65.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $58.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, an increase of $7.3 million, or 12.5%. Midstream depreciation and amortization expense increased $7.8 million primarily due to the north Texas expansion and depreciation acceleration resulting from the abandonment of certain planned projects.

Interest Expense.Interest expense was $48.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $26.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, an increase of $21.9 million. Interest expense increased $8.1 million on the senior notes (including PIK interest) and the credit facility due to an increase in interest rates from the February 2009 amendments to the debt agreements. Additionally the increase primarily relates to interest rate derivatives which yielded a decline in mark to market income as well as an increase in realized expense due to the decrease in LIBOR rates. Net interest expense consists of the following (in millions):

	Six Months Ended

Other		4.9			2.2
Total	$	48.4		$	26.5

Income Taxes.Income tax expense was $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $6.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2008 includes $5.2 million expense related to the issuance of Partnership common units. The deferred tax provision for the gain on issuance of units of the Partnership resulted in the increased provision for the 2008 reporting period.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt.We recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt during the six months ended June 30, 2009 of $4.7 million due to the February 2009 amendment to the senior secured note agreement. The modifications to this agreement pursuant to this amendment were substantive as defined in EITF Issue No. 96-19, “Debtor’s Accounting for a Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments” and were accounted for as the extinguishment of the old debt and the creation of new debt. As a result, the unamortized costs associated with the senior secured notes prior to the amendment as well as the fees paid to the senior secured lenders for the February 2009 amendment were expensed in the first half of 2009.

Other Income.The Partnership recorded $7.6 million in other income during the six months ended June 30, 2008 primarily from the settlement of disputed liabilities that were assumed with an acquisition.

Gain on Issuance of Units of the Partnership.As a result of the Partnership issuing common units in April 2008 to unrelated parties at a price per unit greater than our equivalent carrying value, our share of net assets of the Partnership increased by $14.7 million and we recognized a gain on issuance of such units during the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Interest of Non-Controlling Partners in the Partnership’s Net Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations.The interest of non-controlling partners in the Partnership’s net loss increased by $10.8 million to a loss of $19.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to a loss of $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 due to the changes shown in the following summary (in millions):

Discontinued Operations.As part of the Partnership’s strategy to increase liquidity in response to the tightening financial markets, the Partnership has sold and has agreed to sell certain non-strategic assets. The Partnership sold its undivided 12.4% interest in the Seminole gas processing plant to a third party in November 2008. In addition, the Partnership entered into an agreement to sell its assets in Mississippi, Alabama and south Texas. The sale closed on August 6, 2009. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the results of operations related to the Seminole gas processing plant and the assets held for sale are presented in income from discontinued operations for the comparative periods in the statements of operations. Revenues, the related costs of operations, depreciation and amortization, and allocated interest are reflected in the income from discontinued operations. No general and administrative expenses have been allocated to income from discontinued operations. Following are the components of revenues and earnings from discontinued operations and operating data (dollars in millions):

	Six Months Ended

Critical Accounting Policies

Information regarding the Company’s Critical Accounting Policies is included in Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows from Operating Activities.Net cash provided by operating activities was $17.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $85.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Income before non-cash income and expenses and changes in working capital for comparative periods were as follows (in millions):

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2009			2008
Income before non-cash income and expenses	$	51.8		$	89.6
Changes in working capital	$	(34.3	)	$	(3.7	)

The primary reason for the decrease in income before non-cash income and expenses of $37.8 million from 2008 to 2009 was decreased net income. Changes in working capital may fluctuate significantly between periods even though the Partnership’s trade receivables and payables are typically collected and paid in 30 to 60 day pay cycles. A large volume of its revenues are collected and a large volume of its gas purchases are paid near each month end or the first few days of the following month so receivable and payable balances at any month end may fluctuate significantly depending on the timing of these receipts and payments. In addition, although the Partnership strives to minimize natural gas and NGLs in inventory, these working inventory balances may fluctuate significantly from period-to-period due to operational reasons and due to changes in natural gas and NGL prices. Working capital also includes mark to market derivative assets and liabilities associated with derivative cash flow hedges which may fluctuate significantly due to the changes in natural gas and NGL prices. The changes in working capital during the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2009 are due to the impact of the fluctuations discussed above and are not indicative of any change in operating cash flow trends.

36

Cash Flows from Investing Activities.Net cash used in investing activities was $56.1 million and $147.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The primary investing activities were capital expenditures for internal growth, net of accrued amounts, as follows (in millions):

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2009		2008
Growth capital expenditures	$	70.1	$	143.7
Maintenance capital expenditures		4.8		7.6
Total	$	74.9	$	151.3

Net cash invested in Midstream assets was $64.6 million and $124.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Net cash invested in Treating assets was $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and $23.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Net cash invested in other corporate assets was $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Cash flows from investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 also include proceeds from property sales of $10.7 million and $3.8 million, respectively. The Arkoma asset was sold in the first half of 2009 for net proceeds of $10.6 million. The 2008 sales primarily related to sales of various small Midstream and Treating assets.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities.Net cash provided by financing activities was $36.1 million and $69.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Financing activities primarily relate to funding of capital expenditures. The Partnership’s financings have primarily consisted of borrowings under the bank credit facility, borrowings under capital lease obligations, equity offerings and senior note repayments during 2009 and 2008 as follows (in millions):

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2009			2008

Senior note repayments		(4.7	)		(4.7	)
Net borrowings under capital lease obligations		0.1			11.9
Debt refinancing costs		(13.4	)		—

Dividends to shareholders and distributions to non-controlling partners in the Partnership until recently have been our primary use of cash in financing activities. Total cash distributions made during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were as follows (in millions):

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2009		2008
Dividend to shareholders	$	4.2	$	29.1
Non-controlling partner distributions		7.5		29.5
Total	$	11.7	$	58.6

In order to reduce its interest costs, the Partnership does not borrow money to fund outstanding checks until they are presented to the bank. Fluctuations in drafts payable are caused by timing of disbursements, cash receipts and draws on the Partnership’s revolving credit facility. The Partnership borrows money under its $1.181 billion credit facility to fund checks as they are presented. As of June 30, 2009, the Partnership had approximately $199.8 million of available borrowing capacity under this facility. Changes in drafts payable for the six months ended 2009 and 2008 were as follows (in millions):

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2009		2008
Decrease in drafts payable	$	16.5	$	10.5

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2009.

Capital Requirements of the Partnership.The Partnership has reduced its budgeted capital expenditures significantly for 2009 due to limited access to funding. The current economic climate and the Partnership’s leveraged position have limited its ability to secure additional funding for growth and expansion projects. Total growth capital expenditures in the calendar year 2009 are currently anticipated to be approximately $100.0 million and primarily relate to projects in north Texas and Louisiana pursuant to contractual obligations with producers and vendors. The Partnership will use cash flow from operations and existing capacity under its bank credit facility to fund the reduced capital spending plan during 2009.

During the first half of 2009, its growth capital expenditures, were $70.1 million primarily in north Texas and in north Louisiana. The Partnership continued the expansion of its north Louisiana system during 2009 to provide additional compression thereby increasing capacity by 100 MMcf/d to producers in the Haynesville Shale gas play. This project was completed in July 2009 and the total capacity of the Red River lateral is approximately 375 MMcf/d. The Partnership has 10 year firm transportation contracts with four major producers subscribing to all of the incremental capacity on this expansion project. The Partnership has also continued its expansion of its north Texas pipeline gathering system in the Barnett Shale on a limited basis during the first half of 2009 to handle volume growth and to connect new wells to its gathering system pursuant to existing obligations with producers. The Partnership connected and received initial flow from approximately 61 new wells during the first half of 2009.

The Partnership lowered its distribution level to $0.25 per unit for the fourth quarter of 2008 which was paid in February 2009. The amended terms of its credit facility and senior secured note agreement restricts its ability to make distributions unless certain conditions are met. The Partnership does not expect that it will meet these conditions in 2009. Since our cash flows consist almost exclusively of distributions from the Partnership on the partnership interests we own, we do not expect to receive any significant cash flows until the Partnership is able to improve its leverage ratio and begin making distributions again. We do not anticipate making any future dividend payments after the dividend payment in February 2009 with respect to fourth quarter 2008 operating results until we begin receiving distributions from the Partnership again.

Total Contractual Cash Obligations.A summary of our total contractual cash obligations excluding financial and operating data considered discontinued operations as of June 30, 2009, is as follows (in millions):

	Payments Due by Period
	Total		2009		2010		2011		2012		2013		Thereafter
Long-term debt	$	1,343.0	$	4.7	$	20.3	$	900.0	$	93.0	$	93.0	$	232.0
Interest payable on fixed long-term debt obligations		202.1		21.9		42.5		40.8		36.0		27.4		33.5
PIK interest payable		18.6		—		—		18.6		—		—		—
Capital lease obligations		32.9		1.6		3.4		3.4		3.4		3.4		17.7

Total contractual obligations	$	1,676.8	$	46.9	$	86.0	$	981.0	$	149.1	$	126.9	$	286.9

The above table does not include any physical or financial contract purchase commitments for natural gas.

The Partnership’s interest payable under its credit facility is not reflected in the above table because such amounts depend on outstanding balances and interest rates which will vary from time to time. Based on balances outstanding and rates in effect at June 30, 2009, annual interest payments would be $58.5 million. The interest amounts also exclude estimates of the effect of our interest rate swap contracts.

In the fourth quarter of 2009, the Partnership will be required to post a $32.7 million letter of credit for the Eunice lease obligation. The annual obligations under the Eunice lease of $6.1 million for 2009 and $12.2 million per year for 2010 thru 2012 are reflected in the table above as operating lease obligations.

The unconditional purchase obligations for 2009 relate to purchase commitments for equipment.

Less current portion		(24.4	)		(9.4	)
Debt classified as long-term	$	1,318.6		$	1,254.3

As of June 30, 2009, the Partnership had a bank credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $1.181 billion that matures in June 2011. As of June 30, 2009, $981.2 million was outstanding under the bank credit facility, including $114.4 million of letters of credit, leaving approximately $199.8 million available for future borrowing. The bank credit facility is guaranteed by certain of the Partnership’s subsidiaries. On August 6, 2009, the Partnership sold its Mississippi, Alabama and south Texas assets, which were reflected as assets held for sale as of June 30, 2009, for proceeds of $220.0 million. Sales proceeds, net of transaction costs and other obligations associated with the sale, of $212.0 million were used to repay long-term debt and permanently reduce commitments under the Partnership’s bank credit facility. The Partnership’s bank credit facility requires it to pay a leverage fee if it does not prepay debt and permanently reduce the banks’ commitments and senior secured note borrowings by the cumulative amounts of $100.0 million on September 30, 2009, $200.0 million on December 31, 2009 and $300.0 million on March 31, 2010. If the Partnership fails to meet any de-leveraging target, it must pay a leverage fee equal to the product of the aggregate commitments outstanding under our bank credit facility and the outstanding amounts of the senior secured note agreement on such date, and 1.0% on September 30, 2009, 1.0% on December 31, 2009 and 2.0% on March 31, 2010. This leverage fee will accrue on the applicable date, but not be payable until the Partnership refinances its bank credit facility. The August 2009 repayment made with the proceeds from the disposition of Mississippi, Alabama and south Texas assets satisfied the September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009 de-leveraging targets. As of August 6, 2009, after giving effect to this sale of assets, the repayment of long-term debt and the reduction of commitments under the Partnership’s bank credit facility as a result of such sale, the Partnership had a bank credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $1.038 billion and $405.4 million (including PIK) of outstanding senior secured notes.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R,“Business Combinations”(SFAS 141R) and SFAS No. 160,“Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”(SFAS 160). SFAS 141R requires most identifiable assets, liabilities, non-controlling interests and goodwill acquired in a business combination to be recorded at “full fair value.” The Statement applies to all business combinations, including combinations among mutual entities and combinations by contract alone. Under SFAS 141R, all business combinations will be accounted for by applying the acquisition method. SFAS 141R is effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008. SFAS 160 requires non-controlling interests (previously referred to as minority interests) to be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability or other item outside of permanent equity. SFAS 160 was adopted January 1, 2009 and comparative period information has been recast to classify non-controlling interests in equity and attribute net income and other comprehensive income to non-controlling interests.

In March of 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161,“Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”(SFAS 161). SFAS 161 requires entities to provide greater transparency about how and why the entity uses derivative instruments, how the instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS 133, and how the instruments and related hedged items affect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the entity. SFAS 161 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. SFAS 161 was adopted effective January 1, 2009 and the Partnership added the required disclosures.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”(SFAS No. 162) with an effective date of January 1, 2009. SFAS 162 was intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. SFAS No. 162 has been superseded by SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”(the Codification) released July 1, 2009. The Codification will become the exclusive authoritative reference for nongovernmental U. S. GAAP for use in financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, except for Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules and interpretive releases, which are also authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The change establishes nongovernmental U.S. GAAP into the authoritative Codification and guidance that is non-authoritative. The contents of the Codification will carry the same level of authority, eliminating the four-level GAAP hierarchy previously set forth in Statement 162. The Codification will supersede all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative. The Company will be revising all GAAP references to reflect the Codification for the quarter ending September 30, 2009.

In June 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Staff Position FSP EITF 03-6-1 (the FSP) which requires unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents to be treated asparticipating securitiesas defined in EITF Issue No. 03-6, “Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128,” and, therefore, included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share under the two-class method described in FASB Statement No. 128,Earnings per Share. The FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those years. The Company adopted the FSP effective January 1, 2009 and adjusted all prior reporting periods to conform to the requirements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (SFAS 167).”SFAS 167 amends the guidance in FASB Interpretation 46R related to the consolidation of variable interest entities or VIEs. It requires reporting entities to evaluate former Qualifying Special Purpose Entities or QSPEs for consolidation, changes the approach to determining a VIE’s primary beneficiary from a quantitative assessment to a qualitative assessment designed to identify a controlling financial interest, and increases the frequency of required reassessments to determine whether a company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. It also clarifies, but does not significantly change, the characteristics that identify a VIE. This Statement requires additional year-end and interim disclosures for public and nonpublic companies that are similar to the disclosures required by FSP FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8, “Disclosures by Public Entities (Enterprises) about Transfers of Financial Assets and Interests in Variable Interest Entities.” The Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009 and for subsequent interim and annual reporting periods. The Company does not expect this statement to have a significant impact to its financial statements.

FASB Statement No. 165, “Subsequent Events,” was issued in June 2009 effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009 and addresses accounting and disclosure requirements related to subsequent events. The statement requires management to evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued. Companies are required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The Company has taken this statement into consideration.

The FASB recently issued Staff Position FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requiring publicly traded companies, as defined in Opinion 28, to disclose the fair value of financial instruments within the scope of FASB Statement No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” in interim financial statements, adding to the current requirement to make those disclosures in annual financial statements. The Staff Position is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company has added the required footnote disclosure.

Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities law that are based on information currently available to management as well as management’s assumptions and beliefs. Statements included in this report which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements.

These statements discuss future expectations, contain projections of results of operations or of financial condition or state other “forward-looking” information. Such statements reflect our current views with respect to future events based on what we believe are reasonable assumptions; however, such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. In addition to specific uncertainties discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, the risk factors set forth in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, and those set forth in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this report, if any, may affect our performance and results of operations. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. We disclaim any intention or obligation to update or review any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. The Partnership’s primary market risk is the risk related to changes in the prices of natural gas and NGLs. In addition, it is exposed to the risk of changes in interest rates on floating rate debt.

Interest Rate Risk

The Partnership is exposed to interest rate risk on its variable rate bank credit facility. At June 30, 2009, the bank credit facility had outstanding borrowings of $866.8 million which approximated fair value. The Partnership manages a portion of its interest rate exposure on variable rate debt by utilizing interest rate swaps, which allows conversion of a portion of variable rate debt into fixed rate debt. In January 2008, the Partnership amended its existing interest rate swaps covering $450.0 million of the variable rate debt to extend the period by one year (coverage periods end from November 2010 through October 2011) and reduce the interest rates to a range of 4.38% to 4.68%. In addition, the Partnership entered into one new interest rate swap in January 2008 covering $100.0 million of the variable rate debt for a period of one year at an interest rate of 2.83%. In September 2008, the Partnership entered into additional interest rate swaps covering the $450.0 million that converted the floating rate portion of the original swaps from three month LIBOR to one month LIBOR. As of June 30, 2009, the fair value of these interest rate swaps was reflected as a liability of $28.7 million ($17.5 million in net current liabilities and $11.2 million in long-term liabilities) on the financial statements. The Partnership estimates that a 1% increase or decrease in the interest rate would increase or decrease the fair value of these interest rate swaps by approximately $17.6 million. Considering the interest rate swaps and the amount outstanding on its bank credit facility as of June 30, 2009, the Partnership estimates that a 1% increase or decrease in the interest rate would change its annual interest expense by approximately $4.2 million for periods when the entire portion of the $450.0 million of interest rate swaps are outstanding and $8.7 million for annual periods after 2011 when all the interest rate swaps lapse.

40

At June 30, 2009, the Partnership had total fixed rate debt obligations of $476.3 million, consisting of its senior secured notes (including PIK) with a weighted average interest rate of 10.5%. The fair value of these fixed rate obligations was approximately $469.5 million as of June 30, 2009. The Partnership estimates that a 1% increase or decrease in interest rates would increase or decrease the fair value of the fixed rate debt (its senior secured notes including PIK) by $17.4 million based on the debt obligations as of June 30, 2009.

Commodity Price Risk

The Partnership is subject to significant risks due to fluctuations in commodity prices. Its exposure to these risks is primarily in the gas processing component of its business. The Partnership currently processes gas under three main types of contractual arrangements:

1. Processing margin contracts: Under this type of contract, the Partnership pays the producer for the full amount of inlet gas to the plant, and makes a margin based on the difference between the value of liquids recovered from the processed natural gas as compared to the value of the natural gas volumes lost (“shrink”) in processing. The Partnership’s margins from these contracts are high during periods of high liquids prices relative to natural gas prices, and can be negative during periods of high natural gas prices relative to liquids prices. However, the Partnership mitigates its risk of processing natural gas when its margins are negative under its current processing margin contracts primarily through its ability to bypass processing when it is not profitable for the Partnership, or by contracts that revert to a minimum fee for processing if the natural gas must be processed to meet pipeline quality specifications.

2. Percent of liquids contracts: Under these contracts, the Partnership receives a fee in the form of a percentage of the liquids recovered, and the producer bears all the cost of the natural gas shrink. Therefore its margins from these contracts are greater during periods of high liquids prices. The Partnership’s margins from processing cannot become negative under percent of liquids contracts, but do decline during periods of low NGL prices.

3. Fee based contracts: Under these contracts the Partnership has no commodity price exposure, and is paid a fixed fee per unit of volume that is treated or conditioned.

The gross margin presentation in the table below is calculated net of results from discontinued operations. Gas processing margins by contract types, gathering and transportation margins and treating margins as a percent of total gross margin for the comparative year-to-date periods are as follows:

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
	2009			2008			2009			2008
Gathering and transportation margin		59.7	%		57.7	%		57.2	%		50.8	%
Gas processing margins:
Processing margin		5.7	%		14.7	%		5.0	%		17.7	%
Percent of liquids		10.4	%		10.8	%		12.4	%		13.1	%
Fee based		9.2	%		4.1	%		9.3	%		6.1	%
Total gas processing		25.3	%		29.6	%		26.7	%		36.9	%
Treating margin		15.0	%		12.7	%		16.1	%		12.3	%
Total		100.0	%		100.0	%		100.0	%		100.0	%

The Partnership has hedges in place at June 30, 2009 covering liquids volumes it expects to receive under percent of liquids (POL) contracts as set forth in the following table. The relevant payment index price is the monthly average of the daily closing price for deliveries of commodities into Mont Belvieu, Texas as reported by the Oil Price Information Service (OPIS).

					Fair Value
		Notional			Asset/(Liability)
Period	Underlying	Volume	We Pay	We Receive	(in thousands)

41

The Partnership has hedged its exposure to declines in prices for NGL volumes produced for its account. The NGL volumes hedged, as set forth above, focus on POL contracts. The Partnership hedges POL exposure based on volumes considered hedgeable (volumes committed under contracts that are long term in nature) versus total POL volumes that include volumes that may fluctuate due to contractual terms, such as contracts with month to month processing options. The Partnership hedged 46.5% of its hedgeable volumes at risk through the end of 2009 (17.7% of total volumes at risk through the end of 2009). The Partnership has also hedged 21.3% of its hedgeable natural gasoline volumes for 2010 (6.6% of total natural gasoline volumes at risk for 2010).

The Partnership also has hedges in place at June 30, 2009 covering the fractionation spread risk related to its processing margin contracts as set forth in the following table:

					Fair Value
		Notional			Asset/(Liability)
Period	Underlying	Volume	We Pay	We Receive	(In thousands)
July 2009 — October 2009	Ethane	37 (MBbls)	Index	$0.407 - $0.44/gal	$	(62	)
July 2009 — October 2009	Propane	18 (MBbls)	Index	$0.7015 - $0.84/gal		(25	)
July 2009 — October 2009	Iso Butane	6 (MBbls)	Index	$0.97 - $1.105/gal		(26	)
July 2009 — October 2009	Normal Butane	7 (MBbls)	Index	$0.875 - $1.05/gal		(30	)
July 2009 — October 2009	Natural Gasoline	15 (MBbls)	Index	$1.15 - $1.385/gal		(64	)
July 2009 — October 2009	Natural Gas	3,284 (MMBtu/d)	$4.06-$4.33/ MMBtu	Index		(95	)
					$	(302	)

The Partnership is also subject to price risk to a lesser extent for fluctuations in natural gas prices with respect to a portion of its gathering and transport services. Less than 5.0% of the natural gas the Partnership markets is purchased at a percentage of the relevant natural gas index price, as opposed to a fixed discount to that price. As a result of purchasing the natural gas at a percentage of the index price, resale margins are higher during periods of high natural gas prices and lower during periods of lower natural gas prices. The Partnership has hedged 35.0% of its natural gas volumes at risk through the end of 2009.

Another price risk the Partnership faces is the risk of mismatching volumes of gas bought or sold on a monthly price versus volumes bought or sold on a daily price. The Partnership enters each month with a balanced book of natural gas bought and sold on the same basis. However, it is normal to experience fluctuations in the volumes of natural gas bought or sold under either basis, which leaves the Partnership with short or long positions that must be covered. The Partnership uses financial swaps to mitigate the exposure at the time it is created to maintain a balanced position.

The Partnership’s primary commodity risk management objective is to reduce volatility in its cash flows. The Partnership maintains a risk management committee, including members of senior management, which oversees all hedging activity. The Partnership enters into hedges for natural gas and NGLs using over-the-counter derivative financial instruments with only certain well-capitalized counterparties which have been approved by its risk management committee.

42

The use of financial instruments may expose the Partnership to the risk of financial loss in certain circumstances, including instances when (1) sales volumes are less than expected requiring market purchases to meet commitments or (2) counterparties fail to purchase the contracted quantities of natural gas or otherwise fail to perform. To the extent that the Partnership engages in hedging activities it may be prevented from realizing the benefits of favorable price changes in the physical market. However, the Partnership is similarly insulated against unfavorable changes in such prices.

As of June 30, 2009, outstanding natural gas swap agreements, NGL swap agreements, swing swap agreements, storage swap agreements and other derivative instruments were a net fair value asset of $4.4 million. The aggregate effect of a hypothetical 10% increase in gas and NGL prices would result in a decrease of approximately $0.9 million in the net fair value asset of these contracts as of June 30, 2009.
