CROSSTEX ENERGY COMPLETES LONG-TERM RECAPITALIZATION PLAN

DALLAS, February 10, 2010 — The Crosstex Energy companies, Crosstex Energy, L.P. (NASDAQ: XTEX) (the Partnership) and Crosstex Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: XTXI) (the Corporation), today announced the completion of a recapitalization plan, creating a long-term capital structure with increased financial flexibility. Under the recapitalization, the Partnership has closed a new $420 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a four-year term. The Partnership has also completed the previously announced private placement of $725 million principal amount of 8.875% senior unsecured notes due February 15, 2018 in a private placement. The Partnership used the net proceeds from the senior unsecured notes offering, together with borrowings under its new credit facility, to repay all borrowings outstanding under its previous revolving credit facility, and retire its senior secured notes and to pay related fees, costs and expenses.

“This recapitalization is consistent with our previously announced plan to refinance our debt and provide Crosstex with increased financial flexibility,” said Barry E. Davis, Crosstex President and Chief Executive Officer. “Over the course of the last year, we significantly strengthened our balance sheet through the sale of noncore assets for $622 million, which we believe represents great value in a tough market, and through the placement of $125 million of convertible preferred units with the Blackstone / GSO Capital Solutions funds. In addition, we have continued to optimize our assets, lower our business risks, and make investments where we see the highest growth opportunities. Strong execution of these strategic initiatives, along with our successful recapitalization have significantly improved our cash flow and reduced our leverage. We’re better positioned to serve our customers and take advantage of new business opportunities. We look forward to providing preliminary guidance for 2010 in our March 1^st earnings release.”
