INTRODUCTION
These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements present the impact to the results of operations and financial position of Western Gas Equity Partners, LP attributable to the acquisition on November 25, 2014, of Nuevo Midstream, LLC (“Nuevo”) by Western Gas Partners, LP (“WES”). The assets acquired are referred to as the “Nuevo assets” and the acquisition as the “Nuevo acquisition.”
“WGP” refers to Western Gas Equity Partners, LP in its individual capacity or to Western Gas Equity Partners, LP and its subsidiaries, including Western Gas Holdings, LLC and WES, as the context requires. “WES GP” refers to Western Gas Holdings, LLC, individually as the general partner of WES, and excludes WES. WGP’s general partner, Western Gas Equity Holdings, LLC (“WGP GP”), is a wholly owned subsidiary of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation. “Anadarko” refers to Anadarko Petroleum Corporation and its subsidiaries, excluding WGP and WGP GP, and “affiliates” refers to subsidiaries of Anadarko, excluding WGP and its subsidiaries, and includes equity interests in Fort Union Gas Gathering, LLC, White Cliffs Pipeline, LLC, Rendezvous Gas Services, LLC, Enterprise EF78, LLC, Texas Express Pipeline LLC, Texas Express Gathering LLC and Front Range Pipeline LLC.
WGP has no independent operations or material assets other than its partnership interests in WES; the consolidated financial results of WES are included in WGP’s consolidated financial statements due to WGP’s 100% ownership interest in and control of WES GP.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2013, is based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of WGP, as presented in Exhibit 99.3 to WGP’s Current Report on Form 8-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 27, 2014, and the historical financial statements of Nuevo, as presented in Exhibit 99.1 of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2013, has been prepared as if the Nuevo acquisition occurred on January 1, 2013.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2014, are based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of WGP, as presented in WGP’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014, and the historical financial statements of Nuevo, as presented in Exhibit 99.2 of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, has been prepared as if the Nuevo acquisition occurred on January 1, 2013. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet has been prepared as if the Nuevo acquisition occurred on September 30, 2014.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on the assumption that WGP will continue to be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes and therefore will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes and state income taxes, except for the Texas margin tax. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have also been prepared based on certain pro forma adjustments as described in Note 2—Pro Forma Adjustments.
The audited historical financial information of Nuevo and WGP included in these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements (and the notes thereto) is qualified in its entirety by reference to the audited historical financial statements of Nuevo as set forth in Exhibit 99.1 of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A and WGP’s audited historical consolidated financial statements as set forth in Exhibit 99.3 to its Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the SEC on August 27, 2014, respectively, in each case including the related notes thereto. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with those historical financial statements and the related notes thereto.

INTRODUCTION (CONTINUED)
The pro forma adjustments reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are based upon currently available information and certain assumptions and estimates. The actual effects of these transactions will differ from the pro forma adjustments. The estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on preliminary management estimates and are subject to final valuation adjustments which may cause the amounts ultimately recorded to be different from those shown. However, WGP’s management believes that the applied estimates and assumptions provide a reasonable basis for the presentation of the significant effects of certain transactions that are expected to have a continuing impact on WGP. In addition, WES’s management believes that the pro forma adjustments are factually supportable and appropriately represent the expected impact of items that are directly attributable to the acquisition of Nuevo by WES.
The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the acquisition of Nuevo on November 25, 2014, including the following significant transactions:
• | WES’s use of $275.0 million of cash on hand, including the net proceeds from WES’s November 2014 equity offering, to fund a portion of the cash consideration paid for the acquisition of Nuevo; |
• | WES’s borrowing of $475.0 million under the WES revolving credit facility to fund a portion of the cash consideration paid for the acquisition of Nuevo; and |
• | WES’s issuance of 10,913,853 Class C units to APC Midstream Holdings LLC (“AMH”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Anadarko, at a price of $68.72 per unit, pursuant to a Unit Purchase Agreement (“UPA”) with Anadarko and AMH, for a total of $750.0 million. |
From and after the closing of the Nuevo acquisition and related transactions, WES will be subject to the terms and conditions of various agreements, including the following:
• | the UPA with Anadarko and AMH, pursuant to which WES issued 10,913,853 Class C units to AMH; |
• | the Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among WES, Maguire Midstream, LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of WES, Nuevo and the other parties thereto; and |
• | Amendment No. 12 to the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Western Gas Partners, LP establishing the terms of the WES Class C units. |
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred if WES had acquired Nuevo on the dates indicated nor are they indicative of the future operating results of WES.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2013, is based upon the audited historical consolidated financial statements of WGP and the audited historical financial statements of Nuevo as of December 31, 2013. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income for the nine months ended September 20, 2014, and balance sheet as of September 30, 2014, are based upon the unaudited historical consolidated financial statements of WGP and the unaudited historical financial statements of Nuevo as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. As described in the Introduction, these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements present the impact of the Nuevo acquisition on WGP’s results of operations and financial position.
2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
The following adjustments for WGP have been prepared as if the acquisition of Nuevo (i) occurred on January 1, 2013, in the case of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2013, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and (ii) on September 30, 2014, in the case of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2014:
(a) | The inclusion of interest expense on WES’s $475.0 million of borrowings under WES’s revolving credit facility (the “WES RCF”) to partially finance the acquisition of Nuevo. The interest rate on the WES RCF at September 30, 2014, and used for purposes of calculating interest expense in these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income, was 1.46%. A 1/8% variance in this rate would result in an adjustment to income (loss) before income taxes of $594,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013, and $445,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014; |
(b) | The adjustment of historical current and deferred income taxes as if WES, an entity which is generally not subject to federal and state income taxes, owned and operated Nuevo, and purchase accounting adjustments; |
(c) | The receipt of $475.0 million of borrowings under WES’s revolving credit facility; |
(d) | The acquisition of Nuevo by WES for $1.6 billion, consisting of (i) $201.0 million of cash on hand, (ii) the issuance of 8,620,153 WES public common units, (iii) the issuance of 153,061 WES general partner units to Anadarko and (iv) the issuance of 10,913,853 WES Class C units to AMH for $750.0 million; |

2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS (CONTINUED)
(e) | The acquisition of Nuevo was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, under which tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the consideration transferred over the preliminary estimated fair value of net assets acquired is reflected as goodwill on the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. The estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on preliminary management estimates and are subject to final valuation adjustments which may cause the amounts ultimately recorded to be different from those shown on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. The pro forma adjustments reflect the increase in depreciation and amortization expense due to the amortization of identifiable intangibles (customer contracts assumed in connection with the acquisition of Nuevo) with a definite life using the straight-line method over a weighted average life of 30 years, and the increase in depreciation resulting from step up of property, plant and equipment, depreciated on a straight-line basis over periods of 3 to 30 years. The pro forma adjustments also reflect the consolidation of Nuevo. The following table presents a preliminary allocation of the major classes of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at November 25, 2014, including additional specific adjustments as further described above. |

Because WGP owns and controls WES GP, and WGP GP is owned and controlled by Anadarko, each of WES’s acquisitions of WES assets from Anadarko has been considered a transfer of net assets between entities under common control. Net income attributable to the WES assets acquired from Anadarko for periods prior to WES’s acquisition of the WES assets is not allocated to the limited partners for purposes of calculating net income per common unit. WGP’s net income earned on and subsequent to the date of the acquisition of the WES assets is allocated in accordance with ownership percentages.
For WGP, earnings per unit is calculated based on the assumption that WGP distributes to its unitholders an amount of cash equal to net income attributable to WGP, notwithstanding the general partner’s ultimate discretion over the amount of cash to be distributed for the period, the existence of other legal or contractual limitations that would prevent distributions of all of the net income for the period or any other economic or practical limitation on the ability to make a full distribution of all of the net income for the period. Net income equal to the amount of available cash (as defined by WGP’s partnership agreement) is allocated to WGP common unitholders consistent with actual cash distributions for the period.
For purposes of calculating pro forma net income per unit, management assumed that annual pro forma cash distributions were equal to annual pro forma earnings. Pro forma basic and diluted net income per unit is calculated by dividing the limited partners’ interest in net income by the pro forma weighted average number of units outstanding as of December 31, 2013, or September 30, 2014, as the case may be.
