Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements
Introduction
     The following are our unaudited combined pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2005, and our unaudited combined pro forma statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the nine months ended September 30, 2005.
     The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet assumes that the following transactions occurred on September 30, 2005:
    the acquisition (the “El Paso Acquisition”) of CFS Louisiana Midstream Company and El Paso Dauphin Island Company, L.L.C. from subsidiaries of El Paso Corporation for $486.4 million and direct acquisition costs of $3.5 million;
 
    borrowings under our amended credit facility of $382.8 million to finance the El Paso Acquisition and $5.5 million of fees to amend our credit facility;
 
    our offering of 2,850,165 Senior Subordinated Series B Units for net proceeds of $107.1 million, including a $2.1 million capital contribution from our general partner, the proceeds of which were used to finance the El Paso Acquisition.
     Our unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the nine months ended September 30, 2005 reflect the aforementioned transactions as if each such transaction occurred as of January 1, 2004. Our unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004 reflects our previously disclosed April 2004 acquisition of LIG Pipeline Company and Subsidiaries ("LIG") as if the transaction occurred on January 1, 2004.
     The pro forma balance sheet and the pro forma statements of operations were derived by adjusting the historical financial statements of Crosstex Energy, L. P. The adjustments are based on currently available information and, therefore, the actual adjustments may differ from the pro forma adjustments.
     The pro forma statements of operations have also been derived from El Paso’s historical accounting records and are presented on a carve-out basis to include the historical operations applicable to CFS Louisiana Midstream Company and El Paso Dauphin Island Company, L. L. C. The historical statements of direct revenues and expenses for El Paso vary from an income statement in that they do not show certain expenses that were incurred in connection with El Paso’s and its subsidiaries’ ownership of the acquired companies, including general and administrative expenses and income taxes. These costs were not separately allocated to the acquired companies and any pro forma allocation would not be a reliable estimate of what these costs would actually have been had the acquired companies been operated historically as stand-alone entities. In addition, these allocations, if made using historical general and administrative structures and tax burdens, would not produce allocations that would be indicative of the acquired companies’ historical performance due to greatly different size, structure, operations, and accounting of El Paso Corporation and its subsidiaries.
     Full separate financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles are not presented because the information necessary to prepare such statements is neither readily available on an individual property basis nor practicable to obtain in these circumstances.
     However, management believes that the adjustments provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects of the acquisition from El Paso Corp. and the other transactions. The unaudited pro forma financial statements do not purport to present the financial position or results of operations of Crosstex Energy, L. P. had the El Paso Acquisition or the other transactions actually been completed as of the dates indicated. Moreover, the statements do not project the financial position or results of operations of Crosstex Energy, L. P. for any future date or period.

Offering and Transactions
     The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet assumes that the following transactions occurred on September 30, 2005:
    the acquisition (the “El Paso Acquisition”) of CFS Louisiana Midstream Company and El Paso Dauphin Island Company, L.L.C. from subsidiaries of El Paso Corporation for $486.4 million and direct acquisition costs of $3.5 million;
 
    borrowings under our amended credit facility of $382.8 million to finance the El Paso Acquisition and $5.5 million of fees to refinance our credit facility;
 
    our offering of 2,850,165 Senior Subordinated Series B Units for net proceeds of $107.1 million, including a $2.1 million capital contribution from our general partner, the proceeds of which were used to finance the El Paso Acquisition; and
     Our unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the nine months ended September 30, 2005 reflect the aforementioned transactions as if each such transaction occurred as of January 1, 2004. Our unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004 reflects our previously disclosed April 2004 acquisition of LIG Pipeline Company and Subsidiaries (“LIG”) as if the transaction occurred on January 1, 2004.
Pro Forma Adjustments to Balance Sheet
  (a)   Reflects the acquisition of assets and assumption of liabilities from El Paso for $486.4 million, and $3.5 million for direct acquisition costs. The acquisition was funded by increased borrowings under our credit facility of $388.3 million including $5.5 million in fees and expenses for an amendment to increase our borrowing capacity by $500 million and net proceeds of $107.1 million, including a $2.1 million capital contribution from our general partner for the sale of 2,850,165 Senior Subordinated Series B Units at a purchase price of $36.84 per unit. These Series B Units will not participate in the third quarter 2005 dividend distribution, but will convert to common units on November 14, 2005.
     We will account for this acquisition as a business combination in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141 Business Combinations. The preliminary purchase price allocation, shown below, for these pro formas assumes a fifteen year estimated useful life for both the tangible and intangible assets acquired. The actual purchase price allocation may differ from the allocation reflected herein.
                 
Purchase Price to El Paso
  $ 486.4   million
Direct acquisition costs
    3.5   million
 
             
Total Purchase Price
  $ 489.9   million
 
             
Current assets acquired
  $ 91.8   million
Liabilities assumed
    (92.9 million
Property plant and equipment
    245.5   million
Intangible assets
    245.5   million
 
             
Total Purchase Price
  $ 489.9   million
 
             
Pro Forma Adjustments to Consolidated Statement of Operations
  (b)   Reflects additional depreciation and amortization expenses realized from the assets acquired from El Paso as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2004. The additional depreciation and amortization expenses were calculated based on a straight line basis over fifteen years.
 
  (c)   Reflects additional interest expense related to the increased borrowings on our credit facility to consummate the El Paso Acquisition. The applicable interest rates used were 3.86% for the year ended December 31, 2004, and 5.58% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The effects of fluctuations of 0.125% and 0.25% in annual interest rates under the Partnership’s credit facility on pro forma interest expense would have been approximately $.5 million and $1.0, respectively, for the year ended Dec. 31, 2004. The effect of fluctuations of 0.125% and 0.25% in interest rates under the Partnership’s credit facility on pro forma interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, would have been approximately $.4 million and $.7 million, respectively.
 
  (d)   Reflects increased amortization of debt issue costs incurred in negotiating increased borrowing capacity under our credit facility to provide funds for the El Paso Acquisition. These costs were amortized based on the four and one half years remaining on the credit facility term as of the acquisition date.
 
  (e)   Reflects the increase in the net income allocation to the general partner due to the increase in incentive distributions to our General Partner based on historical dividend rates per unit per quarter applied to additional Senior Subordinated Series B Units issued to fund the El Paso Acquisition less the General Partner’s proportionate 2% share of decreased pro forma net income relative to the acquisition adjustments and pro forma adjustments.
 
  (f)   Reflects additional depreciation and amortization expenses realized from the assets acquired from LIG acquisition. Pro forma depreciation and amortization expense was based on estimated useful lives of fifteen years for the acquired transmission assets, three years for acquired vehicles and three years for the intangible assets.
 
  (g)   Reflects increase of interest expense resulting from borrowings under our senior secured credit facility of $69.8 million for the LIG acquisition. The applicable interest rate used was 4.13% for the three months ended March 31, 2004.
 
  (h)   Reflects the elimination of interest income from LIG's former parent company.
 
  (i)   Reflects the adjustment of income tax expense for the estimated tax expense associated with our new LIG entities. The new LIG entities we formed for the LIG acquisition are treated as C corporations for tax purposes and therefore are required to pay income tax on their net income. The purpose of the corporate structure of the new LIG entities is twofold: (i) to obtain a step-up in the depreciable basis of the assets for the unitholders and (ii) to minimize the tax cost to achieve the step-up. We will recognize a current tax expense on the LIG entities net taxable income and will receive a benefit for the reversal of the deferred tax liability relating to the difference between the book and tax basis of the net assets acquired as of the acquisition date.
