Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2007

(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 to its gathering systems in the geographic areas of its gathering systems in order to 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 an aggregated supply of natural gas and NGLs to a variety of markets. In addition, the Company purchases natural gas from producers not connected to its gathering systems for resale and sells natural gas 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 toForm 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 onForm 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.


*(a)*	*Management’s Use of Estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America required 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)*	*Long-Term Incentive Plans*

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123R,“Share-Based Compensation”(FAS No. 123R) which requires compensation related to all stock-based awards, including stock options, be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The Company applied the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,“Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”(APB No. 25), for periods prior to January 1, 2006.

The Company elected to use the modified-prospective transition method. Under the modified-prospective method, awards that are granted, modified, repurchased, or canceled after the date of adoption are measured and accounted for under FAS No. 123R. The unvested portion of awards that were granted prior to the effective date are also accounted for in accordance with FAS No. 123R. The Company adjusted compensation cost for actual forfeitures as they occurred under APB No. 25 for periods prior to January 1, 2006. Under FAS No. 123R, the

CROSSTEX ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

Company is required to estimate forfeitures in determining periodic compensation cost. The cumulative effect of the adoption of FAS No. 123R recognized on January 1, 2006 was an increase in net income, net of taxes and minority interest, of $0.2 million due to the reduction in previously recognized compensation costs associated with the estimation of forfeitures in determining the periodic compensation cost.

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):

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, 2007 and 2006. The computation of diluted earnings per share further assumes the dilutive effect of common share options and restricted shares.

CROSSTEX ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

The following are the common share amounts used to compute the basic and diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

*(d)*	*Recent Accounting Pronouncements*

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48),“Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. FIN 48 is an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109,“Accounting for Income Taxes”. FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring, presenting and disclosing in the financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken. The Partnership adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007. There was no impact to the Partnership’s financial statements as a result of FIN 48.

On September 13, 2006, the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108), which establishes an approach that requires quantification of financial statement errors based on the effects of the error on each of the company’s financial statements and the related disclosures. SAB 108 requires the use of a balance sheet and an income statement approach to evaluate whether either of these approaches results in quantifying a misstatement that, when all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is material. The Company adopted SAB 108 effective October 1, 2006 with no material impact on its financial statements.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires enhanced disclosures regarding fair value measurements. While SFAS 157 does not add any new fair value measurements, it is intended to increase consistency and comparability of such measurement. The provisions of SFAS 157 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment to FASB Statement No. 115” (SFAS 159) permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Changes in the fair value on items for which the fair value option has been elected are recognized in earnings each reporting period. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to draw comparisons between the different measurement attributes elected for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, that the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on our financial statements.

(2)	Issuance of Units by CELP and Certain Provisions of the Partnership Agreement


*(a)*	*Issuance 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 equity offering for net proceeds of approximately $99.9 million. The senior subordinated series D units were issued at $25.80 per unit, which represented a discount of approximately 25% to the market value of common units on such date. The discount represented an underwriting discount plus the fact that the units will not receive a distribution nor be readily transferable for two years. Crosstex Energy GP, L.P., which is 100% owned by the Company, made a general partner contribution of $2.7 million in connection with this issuance to maintain its 2% general partner interest.

The senior subordinated series D units will automatically convert into common units representing limited partner interests of the Partnership on the first date on or after March 23, 2009 that conversion is permitted by its partnership agreement at a ratio of one common unit for each senior subordinated series D unit, subject to adjustment depending on the achievement of financial metrics in the fourth quarter of 2008. The Partnership’s partnership agreement will permit the conversion of the senior subordinated series D units to common units once the subordination period ends or if the issuance is in connection with an acquisition that increases cash flow from operations per unit on a pro forma basis. If not able to convert on March 23, 2009, then the holders of such units will have the right to receive, after payment of the minimum quarterly distribution on the Partnership’s common units but prior to any payment on the Partnership’s subordinated units, distributions equal to 110% of the quarterly cash distribution amount payable on common units. The senior subordinated series D units are not entitled to distributions of available cash or allocations of net income/loss from the Partnership until March 23, 2009.


*(b)*	*Cash Distributions from the Partnership*

In accordance with the partnership agreement, the Partnership must make distributions of 100% of available cash, as defined in the partnership agreement, within 45 days following the end of each quarter. Distributions will generally be made 98% to the common and subordinated unitholders (other than senior subordinated unitholders) and 2% to the general partner, subject to the payment of incentive distributions 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% of amounts the Partnership distributes in excess of $0.25 per unit, 23% of the amounts it distributes in excess of $0.3125 per unit and 48% of amounts it distributes in excess of $0.375 per unit. Incentive distributions totaling $5.8 million and $5.0 million were earned by the Company as general partner for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Incentive distributions totaling $11.3 million and $9.7 million were earned in the six month period ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. To the extent there is sufficient available cash, the holders of common units are entitled to receive the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.25 per unit, plus arrearages, prior to any distribution of available cash to the holders of subordinated units. Subordinated units will not accrue any arrearages with respect to distributions for any quarter.


*(c)*	*Allocation of Partnership Income*

Net income is allocated to the general partner in an amount equal to its incentive distributions as described in Note (b) above. The general partner’s share of net income is reduced by stock-based compensation expense attributed to CEI stock options and restricted stock. The remaining net income after incentive distributions and CEI-related stock-based compensation is allocated pro rata between the 2% general partner interest, the subordinated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

units (excluding senior subordinated units), and the common units. The following table reflects the Company’s general partner share of the Partnership’s net income:


	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended

General Partner share of net income	$	4,538		$	3,890		$	8,707		$	8,056

The Company also owns limited partner common units and limited partner subordinated units in the Partnership. The Company’s share of the Partnership’s net income attributable to its limited partner common and subordinated units was a net loss of $2.3 million and a loss of $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, respectively, and $2.4 million and $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, respectively.


(3)	Significant Asset Purchases and Acquisitions

On June 29, 2006, the Partnership acquired certain natural gas gathering pipeline systems and related facilities in the Barnett Shale (the North Texas Gathering (NTG) assets) from Chief Holdings LLC (Chief) for a purchase price of approximately $475.3 million (the Chief Acquisition). The NTG assets include five gathering systems, located in parts of Parker, Tarrant, Denton, Palo Pinto, Erath, Hood, Somervell, Hill and Johnson counties in Texas. The NTG assets also included a 125 million cubic feet per day carbon dioxide treating plant and compression facilities with 26,000 horsepower. The gas gathering systems consisted of approximately 210 miles of existing gathering pipelines, ranging from four inches to twelve inches in diameter.

Simultaneously with the Chief Acquisition, the Partnership entered into a gas gathering agreement with Devon Energy Corporation (Devon) whereby the Partnership has agreed to gather, and Devon has agreed to dedicate and deliver, the future production on acreage that Devon acquired from Chief (approximately 160,000 net acres). Under the agreement, Devon has committed to deliver all of the production from the dedicated acreage into the gathering system, including production from current wells and wells that it drills in the future. The Partnership will expand the gathering system to reach the new wells as they are drilled. The agreement has a15-year term and provides for a fixed gathering fee over the term. In addition to the Devon agreement, approximately 60,000 additional net acres were dedicated to the NTG assets under agreements with other producers.

The Partnership utilized the purchase method of accounting for the acquisition of the Midstream Assets with an acquisition date of June 29, 2006. The Partnership recognizes the gathering fee income received from Devon and

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

other producers who deliver gas into the NTG assets as revenue at the time the natural gas is delivered. The purchase price allocation follows (in thousands):


Cash paid to Chief	$	474,858
Direct acquisition costs		429

Total purchase price	$	475,287

Assets acquired:
Current assets	$	18,833
Property, plant and equipment		115,728
Intangible assets		395,604

Liabilities assumed:
Current liabilities		(54,878	)

Total purchase price	$	475,287

Intangibles relate primarily to the value of the dedicated and non-dedicated acreage attributable to the system, including the agreement with Devon, and are being amortized using the units of throughput method of amortization.

The Partnership financed the Chief Acquisition with borrowings of approximately $105.0 million under its bank credit facility, net proceeds of approximately $368.3 million from the private placement of senior subordinated series C units, including approximately $9.0 million of equity contributions from Crosstex Energy GP, L.P., the general partner of the Partnership and an indirect subsidiary of CEI, and $6.0 million of cash.

Operating results for the Chief Acquisition have been included in the consolidated statements of operations since June 29, 2006. The following unaudited pro forma results of operations assume that the Chief Acquisition occurred on January 1, 2006 (in thousands, except per share amounts):


	Pro Forma
	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2006

Net income per common share:
Basic		$0.29
Diluted		$0.29
Weighted average shares outstanding:
Basic		45,982
Diluted		46,441

There are substantial differences in the way Chief operated the NTG assets during pre-acquisition periods and the way the Partnership operates these assets post-acquisition. Although the unaudited pro forma results of operations include adjustments to reflect the significant effects of the acquisition, these pro forma results do not purport to present the results of operations had the acquisition actually been completed as of January 1, 2006.

Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2007, the Partnership has a bank credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $1.0 billion that matures in June 2011. As of June 30, 2007, $765.8 million was outstanding under the bank credit facility, including $125.8 million of letters of credit, leaving approximately $234.2 million available for future borrowing.

In April 2007, the Partnership amended its bank credit facility to increase the maximum permitted leverage ratio for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2007 and each fiscal quarter thereafter. The maximum leverage ratio (total funded debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is as follows (provided, however, that during an acquisition period, the maximum leverage ratio shall be increased by 0.50 to 1.00 from the otherwise applicable ratio set forth below):


	•	5.25 to 1.00 for fiscal quarters through December 31, 2007;

	•	5.00 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2008 through September 2008;

	•	4.75 to 1.00 for fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2009; and

	•	4.50 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending thereafter.

Additionally, the credit facility provides that (i) if the Partnership or its subsidiaries incur unsecured note indebtedness, the leverage ratio will shift to a two-tiered structure and (ii) during periods where the Partnership has outstanding unsecured note indebtedness, the Partnership’s leverage ratio cannot exceed 5.50 to 1.00 and the Partnership’s senior leverage ratio cannot exceed 4.50 to 1.00. The other material terms and conditions of the credit facility remained unchanged.

The Partnership is subject to interest rate risk on its credit facility and has entered into interest rate swaps to reduce this risk. See Note (5) below for a discussion of interest rate swaps.

Senior Secured Notes. In April 2007, the Partnership amended the senior note agreement, effective as of March 30, 2007, to (i) provide that if the Partnership’s leverage ratio at the end of any fiscal quarter exceeds certain limitations, the Partnership will pay the holders of the note an excess leverage fee based on the daily average outstanding principal balance of the notes during such fiscal quarter multiplied by certain percentages set forth in the senior note agreement; (ii) increase the rate of interest on each note by 0.25% if, at any given time during an acquisition period (as defined in the senior note agreement), the leverage ratio exceeds 5.25 to 1.00; (iii) cause the leverage ratio to shift to a two-tiered structure if the Partnership or its subsidiaries incur unsecured note indebtedness; and (iv) limit the Partnership’s leverage ratio to 5.25 to 1.00 and the Partnership’s senior leverage ratio to 4.25 to 1.00 during periods where the Partnership has outstanding unsecured note indebtedness. The other material items and conditions of the senior note agreement remained unchanged.

CROSSTEX ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

The Partnership was in compliance with all debt covenants as of June 30, 2007 and expects to be in compliance with debt covenants for the next twelve months.


(5)	Derivatives

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. In March 2007, the Partnership entered into an interest rate swap covering a principal amount of $50.0 million under the credit facility for a period of three years. In November 2006, the Partnership entered into an interest rate swap covering a principal amount of $50.0 million. The March 2007 interest rate swap fixes the three month LIBOR rate, prior to credit margin, at 4.875% on $50.0 million of related debt outstanding over the term of the swap agreement which expires on March 31, 2010. The November 2006 interest rate swap fixes the three month LIBOR rate, prior to credit margin, at 4.95% on $50.0 million of related debt outstanding over the term of the swap agreement which expires on November 30, 2009. The Partnership has elected to designate the March 2007 interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge for FAS 133 accounting treatment but has not designated the November 2006 interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge. Accordingly, unrealized gains and losses relating to the March 2007 interest rate swap are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income until the related interest rate expense is recognized in earnings and unrealized gains and losses relating to the November 2006 interest rate swap are recorded through the consolidated statement of operations in gain on derivatives over the period hedged.

Net fair value of derivatives	$	904	$	89

At June 30, 2007 an unrealized gain of $0.5 million was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the interest rate swap dated March 2007.

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.

CROSSTEX ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

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” and “processing margin 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 one of our systems on one index and selling gas off that same system on a different index. Processing margin financial swaps are used to hedge frac spread risk at our processing plants relating to the option to process versus bypassing our equity gas.

Impact of Cash Flow Hedges

Natural Gas

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, net gains on cash flow hedge contracts of natural gas increased gas revenue by $2.7 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, net gains on cash flow hedge contracts of natural gas increased gas revenue by $0.4 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2007, net gains on cash flow hedge contracts of natural gas increased gas revenue by $1.2 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2006, net gains on cash flow hedge contracts of natural gas increased gas revenue by $0.9 million. As of June 30, 2007, an unrealized derivative fair value net gain of $2.9 million, related to cash flow hedges of gas price risk, was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Of this net amount, a $3.1 million gain is expected to be reclassified into earnings through June 2008. 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 2007 gas production increased gas revenue by approximately $0.4 million.

Liquids

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, net losses on cash flow hedge contracts of NGLs decreased liquids revenue by approximately $0.2 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, net gains on cash flow hedge contracts of NGLs increased liquids revenue by approximately $1.1 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2007, net losses on cash flow hedge contracts of NGLs decreased liquids revenue by $0.8 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2006, net losses on cash flow hedge contracts of NGLs decreased liquids revenue by $0.1 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, an unrealized derivative fair value loss of $3.1 million related to cash flow hedges of liquids price risk was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and the $3.1 million loss is expected to be reclassified into earnings through March 2008. 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, puts, 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 prices actively quoted. The estimated fair value of energy trading contracts by maturity date was as follows (in thousands):

(7)	Commitments and Contingencies


*(a)*	*Employment Agreements*

Each member of senior management of the Company is a party to an employment contract. The employment agreements provide each member of senior management with severance payments in certain circumstances and prohibit each such person from competing with the general partner or its affiliates for a certain period of time following the termination of such person’s employment.


*(b)*	*Environmental Issues*

The Partnership’s Cow Island Gas Processing Facility, which was acquired in November 2005, has a known active remediation project for benzene contaminated groundwater. The cause of contamination was attributed to a leaking natural gas condensate storage tank. The site investigation and active remediation being conducted at this location is under the guidance of the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) based on the Risk-Evaluation and Corrective Action Plan Program (RECAP) rules. In addition, the Partnership is working with both the LDEQ and the Louisiana State University, Louisiana Water Resources Research Institute, on the development and implementation of a new remediation technology that will reduce the remediation time as well as the costs associated with such remediation projects. The estimated remediation costs are expected to be approximately $0.5 million. Since this remediation project is a result of previous owners’ operation and the actual contamination occurred prior to our ownership, these costs were accrued as part of the purchase price.


*(c)*	*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.


(8)	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 processing and transmission assets located in north and south Texas, the LIG pipelines and processing plants located in Louisiana, the Mississippi System, the Arkoma system located in Oklahoma 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 though fixed monthly payments. The Seminole carbon dioxide processing plant located in Gaines County, Texas is included in the Treating division.

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 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 (the 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 the Partnership, 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) 5,332,000 common units, 4,668,000 subordinated units and 6,414,830 senior subordinated series C units, representing approximately 38% of the limited partner interests in the Partnership, and (ii) 100% ownership interest in Crosstex Energy GP, L.P., the general partner of the Partnership, which owns a 2.0% general partner interest and all of the incentive distribution rights in the Partnership.

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. The interest owned by non-controlling partners’ share of income is reflected as an expense in our results of operations. 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 of non-controlling partners in the Partnership’s net income, 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 along the Texas gulf coast, in the north Texas Barnett Shale area and in Mississippi and Louisiana. The Partnership’s Midstream division focuses on the gathering, processing, transmission and marketing of natural gas and 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, 2007, 83% of the Partnership’s gross margin was generated in the Midstream division, with the balance in the Treating division. The Partnership focuses on gross margin to manage its operations because its business is generally to purchase and resell natural gas for a margin, or to gather, process, transport, market or treat natural gas or 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. As explained under “Commodity Price Risk” below, it enters into financial instruments to reduce volatility in gross margin due to price fluctuations.

During the past five years, the Partnership has grown significantly as a result of construction and acquisition of gathering and transmission pipelines and treating and processing plants. From January 1, 2002 through June 30, 2007, it has invested over $2.0 billion to develop or acquire new assets. The purchased assets were acquired from numerous sellers at different periods and were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the results of operations for such acquisitions are included in our financial statements only from the applicable date of the acquisition. As a consequence, the historical results of operations for the periods presented may not be comparable.

The Partnership’s Midstream segment margins are determined primarily by the volumes of natural gas gathered, transported, purchased and sold through its pipeline systems, processed at its processing facilities and the volumes of natural gas liquids handled at its fractionation facilities. Treating segment margins are largely a function

of the number and size of treating plants as well as fees earned for removing impurities at a non-operated processing plant. The Partnership 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;

	•	recovering carbon dioxide and NGLs at a non-operated processing plant; and

	•	providing off-system marketing services for producers.

The bulk of the Partnership’s operating profits are derived from the margins it realizes for purchasing and reselling natural gas through its pipeline systems. Generally, the Partnership buys gas from a producer, plant, or transporter at either a fixed discount to a market index or a percentage of the market index. The Partnership then transports and resells the gas. 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 it was purchased. The Partnership attempts to execute all purchases and sales substantially concurrently, or it enters into a future delivery obligation, thereby establishing the basis for the margin it 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. See “Commodity Price Risk” below for a discussion of how it manages its business to reduce the impact of price volatility.

Processing and fractionation revenues are largely fee based. Processing fees are largely based on either a percentage of the liquids volume recovered, or a fixed fee per unit processed. Fractionation and marketing fees are generally fixed per unit of product.

The Partnership generates treating revenues under three arrangements:


	•	a volumetric fee based on the amount of gas treated, which accounted for approximately 27% and 37%, including the Seminole plant, of the operating income in the Treating division for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively;

	•	a fixed fee for operating the plant for a certain period, which accounted for approximately 49% and 47% of the operating income in the Treating division for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively; or

	•	a fee arrangement in which the producer operates the plant, which accounted for approximately 24% and 16% of the operating income in the Treating division for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, 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.

Acquisitions

The Partnership has grown significantly through asset purchases in recent years, which creates many of the major differences when comparing operating results from one period to another. The most significant asset purchases since January 2006 were the acquisition of midstream assets from Chief Holdings LLC (Chief) in June 2006, the acquisition of the Hanover Compression Company treating assets in February 2006 and the acquisition of the amine-treating business of Cardinal Gas Solutions Limited Partnership in October 2006.

On June 29, 2006, the Partnership acquired the natural gas gathering pipeline systems and related facilities of Chief in the Barnett Shale for $475.3 million. The acquired systems consisted of approximately 210 miles of existing pipeline located in Parker, Tarrant, Denton, Palo Pinto, Erath, Hood, Somervell, Hill and Johnson counties, all of which are located in Texas. The acquired assets also include a 125 MMcf/d carbon dioxide treating plant and

compression facilities with 26,000 horsepower. At closing, approximately 160,000 net acres previously owned by Chief and acquired by Devon simultaneously with our acquisition, as well as 60,000 net acres owned by other producers, were dedicated to the systems. Immediately following the closing of the Chief acquisition, the Partnership began expanding its north Texas pipeline gathering system. Since the date of acquisition through June 30, 2007, the Partnership connected approximately 190 new wells to its gathering system and increased the dedicated acres owned by other producers by approximately 37,000 net acres. In addition, it has a total of 46,000 horsepower of compression to handle the increased volumes and provide low-pressure gathering service. The Partnership also added two processing plants totalling 85,000 Mcf/d of processing capacity, and two 30,000 Mcf/d dew point control plants (JT plants) in order to remove hydrocarbon liquids from growing gas streams and the Partnership is adding an additional 200,000 Mcf/d processing plant to be in operation in the third quarter of 2007. The Partnership has also installed a 40 gallons per minute amine treating facility to provide carbon dioxide removal capability. The Partnership has increased total throughput on this gathering system from approximately115 MMcf/d at the time of acquisition to 350 MMcf/d for the month of June 2007. These assets and the gathering assets being built in the area are referred to as the North Texas Gathering (NTG) assets.

On February 1, 2006, the Partnership acquired 48 amine treating plants from a subsidiary of Hanover Compression Company for $51.7 million.

On October 3, 2006, the Partnership acquired the amine-treating business of Cardinal Gas Solutions Limited Partnership for $6.3 million. The acquisition added 10 dew point control plants and 50% of seven amine-treating plants to its plant portfolio. On March 28, 2007 we acquired the remaining 50% interest in the amine-treating plants for approximately $1.5 million.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2006

Gross Margin and Profit on Energy Trading Activities. Midstream gross margin was $75.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $52.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $22.8 million, or 43.1%. This increase was primarily due to system expansion projects, increased throughput and a favorable processing environment for NGLs. Profit on energy trading activities showed only a slight increase for the comparative period.

The Partnership acquired the North Texas Gathering (NTG) assets from Chief in June 2006. These assets combined with the North Texas Pipeline (NTPL) and related facilities contributed $17.0 million of gross margin growth during the three months ended June 30, 2007 over the same period in 2006. The NTPL and NTG assets accounted for $14.5 million of this increase. The processing facilities in the region contributed an additional $2.4 million of this gross margin increase. Operational improvements, system expansion and increased volume on the LIG system coupled with optimization and integration with the south Louisiana processing assets contributed a margin growth of $4.6 million during the second quarter of 2007 over the same period in 2006. Volume increases on the Mississippi and east Texas systems contributed gross margin growth of $1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

Treating gross margin was $14.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $13.4 million in the same period in 2006, an increase of $0.6 million, or 4.5%. Treating plants, dew point control plants, and related equipment in service increased from 178 plants at June 30, 2006 to 195 plants at June 30, 2007. Gross margin growth for the period is attributed to plant additions from inventory.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $30.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $22.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $7.1 million, or 31.1%. The $7.1 million increase in operating expenses primarily relates to the NTPL, the NTG assets and the north Louisiana operations expansion. Operating expenses included $0.4 million of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $0.3 million of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $15.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $11.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $4.0 million, or 34.6%. A substantial part of the increase resulted from staffing related costs of $2.2 million. The staff additions associated with the requirements of the NTG assets, NTPL and the expansion in north Louisiana accounted for the majority of the $2.2 million increases. General and administrative expenses included stock-based compensation expense of $2.4 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The $0.5 million increase in stock-based compensation primarily relates to increased staffing and increased grants for comparative periods.

Gain on Sale of Property. The $1.0 million gain on property sold during the three months ended June 30, 2007 primarily relates to the disposition of unused catalyst material.

Gain/Loss on Derivatives. We had a gain on derivatives of $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to a loss of $3.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The gain in 2007 includes a net gain of $1.5 million associated with our basis swaps (including $1.9 million of realized gains), gains of $0.4 million associated with our storage financial transactions and a gain of $0.6 million associated with our interest rate swaps. These gains were partially offset by a loss of $1.0 million associated with our processing margin hedges (including $0.7 million of realized losses) and loss of $0.2 million related to our puts and ineffectiveness. The loss in 2006 includes a loss of $2.7 million on our puts acquired in 2005 related to the acquisition of the south Louisiana assets and a loss of $1.4 million associated with our basis swaps offset by net gains of $0.2 million associated with our third-party on-system and storage financial transactions and ineffectiveness. As of June 30, 2007, the fair value of the puts was less than $0.1 million.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $25.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $6.8 million, or 36.3%. Midstream depreciation and amortization increased $4.2 million due to the acquisition of the NTG assets and $1.6 million due to the NTPL placed in service in April 2006. The north Louisiana expansion generated an increase in depreciation between periods of $1.6 million.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $18.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $11.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $6.7 million, or 57.1%. The increase relates primarily to an increase in debt outstanding and higher interest rates between the three-month periods (weighted average rate of 7.0% in 2007 compared to 6.8% in 2006).

Other Income. Other income was $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. In 2006 the Company collected $1.6 million in excess of the carrying value of the Enron account receivable net of the allowance.

Income taxes. Income tax expense was $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $0.1 million. We do not expect to have a current tax liability in 2007 due to the availability of our net operating loss carryforward.

Interest of Non-Controlling Partners in the Partnership’s Net Income/Loss. The interest of non-controlling partners in the Partnership’s net loss decreased by $2.7 million to a loss of $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to a loss of $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 due to the changes shown in the following summary (in thousands)

The general partner incentive distributions increased between these three-month periods due to an increase in the distribution amounts per unit and due to an increase in the number of common units outstanding.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2006

Gross Margin and Profit on Energy Trading Activities. Midstream gross margin was $134.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $100.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $33.9 million, or 33.8%. This increase was primarily due to system expansion projects, increased throughput and a favorable processing environment for NGLs. Profit on energy trading activities showed only a slight increase for the comparative period.

The Partnership acquired the bulk of the NTG assets from Chief in June 2006. These assets combined with the NTPL and related facilities contributed $30.9 million of gross margin growth during the six months ended June 30, 2007 over the same period in 2006. The NTPL and NTG assets accounted for $26.1 million of this increase. The processing facilities in the region contributed an additional $3.7 million of this gross margin increase. Operational improvements, system expansion and increased volume on the LIG system coupled with optimization and integration with the south Louisiana processing assets contributed a margin growth of $3.8 million during the second quarter of 2007 over the same period in 2006.

Treating gross margin was $28.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $25.1 million for the same period in 2006, an increase of $2.9 million, or 11.6%. Treating plants, dew point control plants, and related equipment in service increased from 178 plants at June 30, 2006 to 195 plants at June 30, 2007. Gross margin growth for the period is attributed to plant additions from inventory.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $57.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $44.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $12.5 million, or 27.9%. The increase in operating expenses primarily reflects the operations of the NTPL, the NTG assets and the north

Louisiana expansion. Operating expenses included $0.7 million of stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $0.5 million of stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $28.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $23.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $4.8 million, or 20.6%. The staff additions associated with the requirements of the NTPL and the NTG assets and the expansion in north Louisiana accounted for $2.6 million in increased costs. General and administrative expenses included stock-based compensation expense of $4.4 million and $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The $1.0 million increase in stock-based compensation primarily relates to restricted stock and unit grants and increased headcount between comparative periods. Other expenses, including audit, legal and other consulting fees, office rent, travel and training accounted for $1.0 million of the increase.

Gain on Sale of Property. The $1.8 million gain on sale of property for the six months ended June 30, 2007 consists of the disposition of unused catalyst material of $1.0 million and the sale of a treating plant for $0.9 million, offset by losses on disposition of other treating equipment.

Gain/Loss on Derivatives. We had a gain on derivatives of $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to a loss of $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The gain in 2007 includes a net gain of $5.2 million associated with our basis swaps (including $2.7 million of realized gains), gains of $0.3 million associated with our third-party on-system and storage financial transactions and a gain of $0.5 million associated with our interest rate swaps. These were partially offset by a loss of $0.8 million on our puts acquired in 2005 related to the acquisition of the south Louisiana assets and losses of $0.7 million associated with our processing margin hedges (including $0.2 million of realized losses) and ineffectiveness. The loss in 2006 includes a loss of $3.8 million on our puts and a loss of $0.5 million associated with our basis swaps offset in part by gains of $2.5 million associated with our third-party on-system and storage financial transactions (including $1.3 million realized gains). As of June 30, 2007, the fair value of the puts was less than $0.1 million.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $50.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $35.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $14.7 million, or 41.2%. Midstream depreciation and amortization increased $7.8 million due to the NTG assets and $3.8 million due to the NTPL, which was placed in service in April 2006. The north Louisiana expansion, which was placed in service in April 2007, generated an increase in depreciation between periods of $1.9 million and the remaining increase relates to other assets with a combined increase of $1.2 million.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $35.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $20.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $15.5 million, or 76.8%. The increase relates primarily to an increase in debt outstanding. Interest rates were equivalent during the comparative period.

Other Income. Other income was $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. In 2006 the Company collected $1.6 million in excess of the carrying value of the Enron account receivable net of the allowance.

Gain on Issuance of Units of the Partnership. As a result of the Partnership issuing senior subordinated units in June 2005 to unrelated parties at a price per unit greater than the Company’s equivalent carrying value, the Company’s share of net assets of the Partnership increased by $19.0 million. The Company recognized the $19.0 million gain associated with the unit issuance in February 2006 when the senior subordinated units converted to common units.

Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change. The Company recorded a $0.2 million cumulative adjustment to recognize the required change in reporting stock-based compensation under FASB Statement No. 123R which was effective January 1, 2006. The cumulative effect of this change is reported in our income net of taxes and non-controlling partners’ interest.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense was $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $10.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The deferred tax provision for the gain on issuance of units of

the Partnership resulted in the increased provision for the 2006 reporting period. We do not expect to have a current tax liability in 2007 due to the availability of our net operating loss carryforward.

Interest of Non-Controlling Partners in the Partnership’s Net Income. The interest of non-controlling partners in the Partnership’s net loss increased by $2.1 million to a loss of $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to a loss of $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 due to the changes shown in the following summary (in thousands):


	For the
	Six Months Ended

Non-controlling partners’ share of Partnership net loss	$	(6,883	)	$	(4,821	)

The general partner incentive distributions increased between these six-month periods due to an increase in the distribution amounts per unit and due to an increase in the number of common units outstanding.

Critical Accounting Policies

Information regarding the Company’s Critical Accounting Policies is included in Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows. Net cash provided by operating activities was $47.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to cash provided by operations of $39.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Income before non-cash income and expenses was $51.4 million in 2007 and $45.2 million in 2006. Changes in working capital used $4.0 million in cash flows from operating activities in 2007 and used $5.8 million in cash flows from operating activities in 2006.

Net cash used in investing activities was $227.0 million and $650.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net cash invested in Midstream assets for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $208.9 million compared to $589.6 million for the same time period in 2006, including $475.4 million related to the acquisition of assets from Chief. Net cash invested in Treating assets for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $13.0 million compared to $63.2 million for the same period in 2006 including $51.5 million related to the acquisition of Hanover assets.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $177.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $607.6 million provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2007 included $99.9 million from net proceeds from the Partnership’s issuance of senior subordinated series D units and net bank borrowings of $146.7 million. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2006 included net proceeds from issuance of common stock of $179.9 million, net proceeds from issuance of Partnership units of $179.3 million, net borrowings under the amended credit facility of $238.0 million and net borrowings under our senior secured notes of $58.2 million. Dividends paid totaled $20.5 million for the first half of 2007 as compared to $15.1 million for

the first half of 2006. Distributions to non-controlling partners totaled $19.0 million in the first half of 2007 compared to $16.4 million in the first half of 2006. Drafts payable decreased by $30.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to a decrease in drafts payable of $14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. In order to reduce 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.

Working Capital Deficit. We had a working capital deficit of $40.9 million as of June 30, 2007, primarily due to drafts payable of $17.6 million and accrued liabilities of $59.2 million, including $25.3 million attributable to accrued property development costs. As discussed in “Cash Flows” above, the Partnership does not borrow money to fund outstanding checks until they are presented to the bank. The Partnership borrows money under its $1.0 billion credit facility to fund checks as they are presented. As of June 30, 2007, the Partnership had approximately $234.2 million of available borrowing capacity under this facility.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2007.

March 2007 Sale 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 in a private offering for net proceeds of approximately $99.9 million. The senior subordinated series D units were issued at $25.80 per unit, which represented a discount of approximately 25% to the market value of common units on such date. The discount represented an underwriting discount plus the fact that the units will not receive a distribution nor be readily transferable for two years. Crosstex Energy GP, L.P. made a general partner contribution of $2.7 million in connection with this issuance to maintain its 2% general partner interest. The senior subordinated series D units will automatically convert into common units representing limited partner interests on the first date on or after March 23, 2009 that conversion is permitted by the partnership agreement of the Partnership at a ratio of one common unit for each senior subordinated series D unit, subject to adjustment depending on the achievement of financial metrics in the fourth quarter of 2008. The senior subordinated series D units are not entitled to distributions of available cash or allocations of net income/loss from us until March 23, 2009.

Capital Requirements of the Partnership. The natural gas gathering, transmission, treating and processing businesses are capital-intensive, requiring significant investment to maintain and upgrade existing operations. The Partnership’s capital requirements have consisted primarily of, and it anticipates will continue to be:


	•	maintenance capital expenditures, which are capital expenditures made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets in order to maintain existing operating capacity of its assets and to extend their useful lives, or other capital expenditures which do not increase the Partnership’s cash flows; and

	•	growth capital expenditures such as those to acquire additional assets to grow the Partnership’s business, to expand and upgrade gathering systems, transmission capacity, processing plants or treating plants, and to construct or acquire new pipelines, processing plants or treating plants, and expenditures made in support of that growth.

Given the Partnership’s objective of growth through acquisitions, it anticipates that it will continue to invest significant amounts of capital to grow and acquire assets. The Partnership actively considers a variety of assets for potential acquisitions.

The Partnership believes that cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet its present quarterly distribution level of $0.57 per quarter and to fund a portion of its anticipated capital expenditures through June 30, 2008. Total capital expenditures are estimated to be approximately $145.0 million for the remainder of 2007. The Partnership expects to fund the remaining capital expenditures from the proceeds of borrowings under the revolving credit facility discussed below. The Partnership’s ability to pay distributions to its unit holders and to fund planned capital expenditures and to make acquisitions will depend upon its future operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions in its industry and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond its control.

Indebtedness

As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, long-term debt consisted of the following (in thousands):


	June 30,			December 31,

Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2007, the Partnership had a bank credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $1.0 billion that matures in June 2011. As of June 30, 2007, $765.8 million was outstanding under the bank credit facility, including $125.8 million of letters of credit, leaving approximately $234.2 million available for future borrowing.


	•	5.25 to 1.00 for fiscal quarters through December 31, 2007;

	•	5.00 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2008 through September 2008;

	•	4.75 to 1.00 for fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2009; and

	•	4.50 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending thereafter.

Additionally, the credit facility now provides (i) if the Partnership or its subsidiaries incur unsecured note indebtedness, the leverage ratio will shift to a two-tiered structure and (ii) during periods where the Partnership has outstanding unsecured note indebtedness, its leverage ratio cannot exceed 5.50 to 1.00 and its senior leverage ratio cannot exceed 4.50 to 1.00. The other material terms and conditions of the credit facility remain unchanged.

Senior Secured Notes. In April 2007, the Partnership amended its senior note agreement, effective as of March 30, 2007, to (i) provide that if the Partnership’s leverage ratio at the end of any fiscal quarter exceeds certain limitations, it will pay the holders of the note an excess leverage fee based on the daily average outstanding principal balance of the notes during such fiscal quarter multiplied by certain percentages set forth in the senior note agreement; (ii) increase the rate of interest on each note by 0.25% if, at any given time during an acquisition period (as defined in the senior note agreement), the leverage ratio exceeds 5.25 to 1.00; (iii) cause the leverage ratio to shift to a two-tiered structure if the Partnership or its subsidiaries incur unsecured note indebtedness; and (iv) limit its leverage ratio to 5.25 to 1.00 and our senior leverage ratio to 4.25 to 1.00 during periods where the Partnership has outstanding unsecured note indebtedness. The other material items and conditions of the senior note agreement remained unchanged.

The Partnership was in compliance with all debt covenants as of June 30, 2007 and expect to be in compliance with debt covenants for the next twelve months.

Total Contractual Cash Obligations. A summary of our total contractual cash obligations as of June 30, 2007, is as follows:

Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report onForm 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended 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 can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology including “forecast,” “may,” “believe,”

“will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “continue” or other similar words. 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 thisForm 10-Q, the risk factors set forth in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, and those set forth in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this report 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. Our primary market risk is the risk related to changes in the prices of natural gas and NGLs. In addition, we are also exposed to the risk of changes in interest rates on the Partnership’s floating rate debt.

Interest Rate Risk

The Partnership is exposed to interest rate risk on short-term and long-term debt carrying variable interest rates. At June 30, 2007, its variable rate debt had a carrying value of $640.0 million which approximated its fair value, and its fixed rate debt had a carrying value of $493.8 million with an approximate fair value of $499.0 million. The Partnership attempts to balance variable rate debt, fixed rate debt and debt maturities to manage interest cost, interest rate volatility and financing risk. This is accomplished through a mix of bank debt with short-term variable rates and fixed rate senior and subordinated debt. In addition, the Partnership has entered into two separate interest rate swaps covering principal amounts of $50.0 million each under the credit facility for periods of three years each. The interest rate swaps reduce risk by fixing the three month LIBOR rate over the term of the swap agreement.

In November 2006, the Partnership entered into an interest rate swap that fixed the three month LIBOR rate, prior to credit margin, at 4.95% on $50.0 million of related debt outstanding over the term of the swap agreement which expires on November 30, 2009. The fair value of the interest rate swap at June 30, 2007 was a $0.4 million asset.

In March 2007, the Partnership entered into an interest rate swap that fixed the three month LIBOR rate, prior to credit margin, at 4.875% on $50.0 million of related debt outstanding over the term of the swap agreement which expires on March 31, 2010. The fair value of the interest rate swap at June 30, 2007 was a $0.5 million asset.

The following table shows the carrying amount and fair value of long-term debt and the hypothetical change in fair value that would result from a 100-basis point change in interest rates. Unless otherwise noted, the hypothetical change in fair value could be a gain or a loss depending on whether interest rates increase or decrease.


					Hypothetical
	Carrying		Fair		Change in
	Amount		Value(a)		Fair Value
	(In millions)

June 30, 2007	$	1,133.8	$	1,144.4	$	10.6


(a)		Fair value is based upon current market quotes and is the estimated amount required to purchase our long-term debt on the open market. This estimated value does not include any redemption premium.

Commodity Price Risk

Approximately 4.5% 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, its resale margins are higher during periods of high natural gas prices and lower during periods of lower natural gas prices. As of June 30, 2007, the Partnership has hedged approximately 80% of its

exposure to natural gas price fluctuations through December 2008. The Partnership also has hedges in place covering at least 80% of the liquid volumes it expects to receive at its south Louisiana assets through the first quarter of 2008; 74% of the liquids at its other assets through the end of 2007 and 80% for the first quarter of 2008.

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 gas bought and sold substantially on the same basis. However, it is normal to experience fluctuations in the volumes of 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 has commodity price risk associated with its processed volumes of natural gas. It currently processes gas under four main types of contractual arrangements:

1. Keep-whole contracts: Under this type of contract, it 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 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. The Partnership controls its risk on current keep-whole contracts primarily through its ability to bypass processing when it is not profitable.

2. Percent of proceeds 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, margins from these contracts are greater during periods of high liquids prices. The Partnership’s margins from processing cannot become negative under percent of proceeds contracts, but do decline during periods of low NGL prices.

3. Theoretical processing contracts: Under these contracts, the Partnership stipulates with the producer the assumptions under which it will assume processing economics for settlement purposes, independent of actual processing results or whether the stream was actually processed. These contracts tend to have an inverse result to the keep-whole contracts, with better margins as processing economics worsen.

4. 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 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. It enters into hedges for natural gas and NGLs using NYMEX futures or over-the-counter derivative financial instruments with only certain well-capitalized counterparties which have been approved by the Risk Management Committee.

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.

The Partnership manages its price risk related to future physical purchase or sale commitments for its commercial services activities by entering into either corresponding physical delivery contracts or financial instruments with an objective to balance our future commitments and significantly reduce our risk to the movement in natural gas prices. However, it is subject to counterparty credit risk for both the physical and financial contracts. The Partnership accounts for certain of its commercial services natural gas marketing activities as energy trading contracts or derivatives. These energy-trading contracts are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings. Accordingly, any gain or loss arising from changes to the fair market value of the derivative and physical delivery contract related to the Partnership’s commercial services natural gas marketing activities are recognized in earnings as profit or loss from energy trading contracts immediately.

For each reporting period, the Partnership records the fair value of open energy trading contracts based on the difference between the quoted market price and the contract price. Accordingly, the change in fair value from the previous period is reported as a gain or loss on derivatives in the statement of operations. In addition, realized gains and losses from settled contracts accounted for as cash flow hedges are recorded in Midstream revenue. As of June 30, 2007, outstanding natural gas swap agreements, NGL swap agreements, swing swap agreements and other derivative instruments were a net fair value asset of $3.1 million, excluding the fair value asset of less than $0.1 million associated with the NGL puts. The aggregate effect of a hypothetical 10% increase in gas and NGL prices would result in a decrease of approximately $6.4 million in the net fair value to a net liability of these contracts as of June 30, 2007 of $3.3 million. The value of the NGL puts would also decrease as a result of an increase in NGLs prices but the Partnership is unable to determine the impact of a 10% price change. The maximum loss on these puts is the remaining fair value for the puts of less than $0.1 million.


Item 4.	*Controls and Procedures*


*(a)*	*Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures*
