Exhibit 99.1
Regency Energy Partners Announces Corporate Officers’ Sale of
Common Units and Subsequent Purchase of General Partner Interests and
Subordinated Units
DALLAS, Aug. 29, 2007— Regency Energy Partners LP (Nasdaq: RGNC) (“Regency”) announces that certain corporate officers have sold common units of Regency to obtain funds to fulfill existing obligations to invest in other Regency-related securities.
The after-tax proceeds from the sale of approximately 93,000 common units by five corporate officers will be applied to purchase general partner interests and subordinated units of Regency from GE Energy Financial Services. These investments represent significant personal commitments to Regency’s future because there is currently no public market for either investment.
The subsequent purchase transactions are expected to occur before the end of the third quarter 2007.
Regency Energy Partners LP (Nasdaq: RGNC) is a growth-oriented, midstream energy partnership engaged in the gathering, processing, marketing and transporting of natural gas and natural gas liquids. Regency’s general partner is majority-owned by an affiliate of GE Energy Financial Services, a unit of GE (NYSE:GE).
