FORM 10-Q/A

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This amendment to our quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A (“Form 10-Q/A”) is being filed to amend our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, which was originally filed on August 9, 2006 (the “Original 10-Q Filing”). In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, this Form 10-Q/A sets forth the complete text of Items 1, 2 and 4 of Part I and Item 6 of Part II, as amended, as well as certain currently dated certifications. Unaffected items have not been repeated in this Form 10-Q/A.

In September 2006, we determined that a purchase of natural gas from a supplier on newly acquired assets was not accrued in the first quarter of 2006 due to a clerical error. The error occurred shortly after our acquisition of the south Louisiana assets from El Paso Corporation in November 2005 and during a period when we were upgrading and transitioning to new accounting systems for the acquired assets. As a result of correcting this error, we have restated our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2006, our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006, our consolidated statement of changes in partners’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2006, our consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and our consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2006. We have also restated our notes to consolidated financial statements as necessary to reflect the adjustment. The net effect of the required adjustment due to the error reduces our net income and comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 by approximately $0.9 million. Partners’ equity is reduced by the same amount and current liabilities are increased by the same amount as of June 30, 2006. Please read Note 2 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the adjustment.

This Form 10-Q/A does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original 10-Q Filing and does not modify or update the disclosures therein in any way other than as required to reflect the adjustment described above. Such events include, among others, the events described in our current reports on Form 8-K filed after the filing of the Original 10-Q Filing.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)


(1)	General

Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “we”,“us”,“our” or the “Partnership” mean Crosstex Energy, L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Crosstex Energy, L.P. (the “Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed on July 12, 2002, is engaged in the gathering, transmission, treating, processing and marketing of natural gas and natural gas liquids. The Partnership connects the wells of natural gas producers in its market areas to its gathering systems, treats natural gas to remove impurities to ensure that it meets pipeline quality specifications, processes natural gas for the removal of natural gas liquids, or NGLs, transports natural gas and NGLs and ultimately provides natural gas to a variety of markets. The Partnership purchases natural gas from natural gas producers and other supply points and sells that natural gas to utilities, industrial customers, other marketers and pipelines and thereby generates gross margins based on the difference between the purchase and resale prices. In addition, the Partnership purchases natural gas and NGLs from producers not connected to its gathering systems for resale and sells natural gas and NGLs on behalf of producers for a fee.

Crosstex Energy GP, L.P., is the general partner of the Partnership. Crosstex Energy GP, L.P. is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Crosstex Energy Inc. (“CEI”).

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 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. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated financial statements for the prior year periods to conform to the current presentation.


*(a)*	*Management’s Use of Estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management of the Partnership 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 Partnership 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 Partnership 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 Partnership 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 Partnership 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, L.P.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

Partnership 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 of $0.7 million due to the reduction in previously recognized compensation costs associated with the estimation of forfeitures in determining the periodic compensation cost.

The Partnership and CEI each have similar share-based payment plans for employees, which are described below. Share-based compensation associated with the CEI share-based compensation plans awarded to officers and employees of the Partnership are recorded by the Partnership since CEI has no operating activities other than its interest in the Partnership. Amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements with respect to these plans are as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2006		2005		2006		2005

Cost of share-based compensation charged to general and administrative expense	$	1,919	$	1,080	$	3,397	$	1,309

Total amount charged to income before cumulative effect of accounting change	$	2,237	$	1,242	$	3,882	$	1,517

The Partnership has a long-term incentive plan that was adopted by the Partnership’s managing general partner in 2002 for its employees, directors, and affiliates who perform services for the Partnership. The plan currently permits the grant of awards covering an aggregate of 2,600,000 common unit options and restricted units. The plan is administered by the compensation committee of the managing general partner’s board of directors. The units issued upon exercise or vesting are newly issued common units.

Restricted Units

A restricted unit is a “phantom” unit that entitles the grantee to receive a common unit upon the vesting of the phantom unit, or in the discretion of the compensation committee, cash equivalent to the value of a common unit. In addition, the restricted units will become exercisable upon a change of control of the Partnership, or its general partner.

The restricted units are intended to serve as a means of incentive compensation for performance and not primarily as an opportunity to participate in the equity appreciation of the common units. Therefore, plan participants will not pay any consideration for the common units they receive and the Partnership will receive no remuneration for the units. The restricted units include a tandem award that entitles the participant to receive cash payments equal to the cash distributions made by the Partnership with respect to its outstanding common units until the restriction period is terminated or the restricted units are forfeited. The restricted units granted prior to 2005 generally vest based on five years of service (25% in years 3 and 4 and 50% in year 5) and the restricted units granted in 2005 and 2006 generally cliff vest after three years of service.

CROSSTEX ENERGY, L.P.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

The restricted units are valued at their fair value at the date of grant which is equal to the market value of common units on such date. A summary of the restricted unit activity for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 is provided below:


	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2006
				Weighted
				Average
	Number of			Grant-Date
	Units			Fair Value
Crosstex Energy, L.P. Restricted Units:
Non-vested, beginning of period		247,648		$	28.33
Granted		108,774		$	34.20
Vested		(19,500	)	$	12.99
Forfeited		(19,256	)	$	24.41

Non-vested, end of period		317,666		$	31.52

Aggregate intrinsic value, end of period (in thousands)	$	11,684

The aggregate intrinsic value of vested units for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was $0.7 million. As of June 30, 2006, there was $6.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted units. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years.

Unit Options

Unit options will have an exercise price that, in the discretion of the compensation committee, may be less than, equal to or more than the fair market value of the units on the date of grant. In general, unit options granted will become exercisable over a period determined by the compensation committee. In addition, unit options will become exercisable upon a change in control of the Partnership, or its general partner.

The fair value of each unit option award is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton model. This model is based on the assumptions summarized below. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Partnership’s traded common units. The Partnership has used historical data to estimate share option exercise and employee departure behavior. The expected life of unit options represents the period of time that unit options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual term of the unit option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

Unit options are generally awarded with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Partnership’s common units at the date of grant, although a substantial portion of the unit options granted during 2004 and 2005 were granted during the second quarter of each fiscal year with an exercise price equal to the market price at the beginning of the fiscal year, resulting in an exercise price that was less than the market price at grant. The unit options granted prior to 2005 generally vest based on five years of service (25% in years 3 and 4 and 50% in year 5) and the unit options granted in 2005 and 2006 generally vest based on 3 years of service (one-third after each year of service). The unit options have a 10-year term.

The intrinsic value of unit options exercised during the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2006 was $1.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2006, there was $3.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested unit options. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

CEI Long-Term Incentive Plan

CEI has one stock-based compensation plan, the Crosstex Energy, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan. The plan currently permits the grant of awards covering an aggregate of 1,200,000 options for common stock and restricted shares. The plan is administered by the compensation committee of CEI’s board of directors. The shares issued upon exercise or vesting are newly issued common shares.

CEI’s restricted shares are included at their fair value at the date of grant which is equal to the market value of the common stock on such date. CEI’s restricted stock granted prior to 2005 generally vests based on five years of service (25% in years 3 and 4 and 50% in year 5) and restricted stock granted in 2005 and 2006 generally cliff vests after three years of service.

No CEI stock options have been granted to, or exercised or forfeited by, any officers or employees of the Partnership during the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2006. The following is a summary of the CEI stock options outstanding attributable to officers and employees of the Partnership as of June 30, 2006:


Outstanding stock options (non exercisable)		10,000
Weighted average exercise price	$	40.00

As of June 30, 2006, there was $8.1 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested CEI restricted stock and CEI’s stock options. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years.

Pro Forma for 2005:

Had compensation cost for the Partnership been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards in accordance with SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-based Compensation, the Partnership’s net income would have been as follows (in thousands, except per unit amounts):

*(c)*	*Earnings per Unit and Dilution Computations*

Basic earnings per unit was computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of limited partner units outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The computation of diluted earnings per unit further assumes the dilutive effect of unit options, restricted units and senior subordinated units.

The following are the unit amounts used to compute the basic and diluted earnings per limited partner unit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands):

	2006		2005		2006		2005

Basic earnings per unit:

Dilutive effect of restricted units issued		—		105		—		102
Dilutive effect of senior subordinated units		—		100		—		50
Dilutive effect of exercise of options outstanding		—		551		—		556

Diluted units		26,572		18,880		26,064		18,819

All outstanding units were included in the computation of diluted earnings per unit and weighted based on the number of days such units were outstanding for the period presented. All common equivalents were antidilutive in the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 because the limited partners were allocated a net loss in the periods.

Net income is allocated to the general partner in an amount equal to its incentive distributions as described in Note (5). In June 2005, the Partnership amended its partnership agreement to allocate the expenses attributable to CEI stock options and restricted stock all to the general partner to match the related general partner contribution for such items. Therefore, beginning in the second quarter of 2005, 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 units, and the common units. The net income allocated to the general partner for incentive distributions was $5.0 million and $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $9.7 million and $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Stock-based compensation related to CEI options and restricted stock was $1.0 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $1.5 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.


*(d)*	*Income Taxes*

The Partnership recorded an increase of $0.2 million to the deferred tax liability related to the effect of tax law changes enacted by the State of Texas on May 18, 2006.


(2)	Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

In September 2006, the Partnership determined that a purchase of natural gas from a supplier on newly acquired assets was not accrued in the first quarter of 2006 due to a clerical error, resulting in a decrease in net income of $0.9 million. To correct this error, the Partnership has restated its condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006, its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2006, its consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2006, its consolidated statement of changes in partners’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and its consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

(3)	Significant Acquisition

On June 29, 2006, the Partnership acquired certain natural gas gathering pipeline systems and related facilities in the Barnett Shale (the “Midstream Assets”) from Chief Holdings LLC (“Chief”) for a purchase price of approximately $475.4 million (the “Chief Acquisition”). The Midstream Assets include five gathering systems, located in parts of Parker, Tarrant, Denton, Palo Pinto, Erath, Hood, Somervell, Hill and Johnson counties in Texas. The Midstream Assets also include a 125 million cubic feet per day carbon dioxide treating plant and compression facilities with 26,000 horsepower. The gas gathering systems consist of approximately 250 miles of existing gathering pipelines, ranging from four inches to twelve inches in diameter. The Partnership plans to build up to an additional 400 miles of pipelines as production in the area is drilled and developed. The gathering systems currently have the capacity to deliver approximately 250,000 MMBtu per day, and the Partnership will expand the capacity as needed to gather the volumes produced as new pipelines are constructed.

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 a 15-year term and provides for market-based gathering fees over the term. In addition to the Devon agreement, approximately 60,000 additional net acres are dedicated to the Midstream 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 will recognize the gathering fee income received from Devon and other producers who deliver gas into the Midstream Assets as revenue at the time the natural gas is delivered. The purchase price and our preliminary allocation thereof are as follows (in thousands):


Cash paid to Chief	$	475,333
Direct acquisition costs		75

Total purchase price	$	475,408

Assets acquired:
Current assets		26,935
Property, plant and equipment		88,075
Intangible assets		415,053
Liabilities assumed:
Current liabilities		(54,655	)

Total purchase price	$	475,408

Intangibles relate to customer relationships, including the agreement with Devon, and are being amortized over 15 years. The preliminary purchase price allocation has not been finalized because the Partnership is still in the

process of determining the allocation of costs between tangible and intangible assets and finalizing working capital settlements.

The Partnership financed the Chief Acquisition with borrowings of approximately $105.0 million under our bank credit facility, net proceeds of approximately $368.4 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 Crosstex Energy, Inc., and $6.0 million of cash.

In November 2005, the Partnership acquired El Paso Corporation’s processing and natural gas liquids business in south Louisiana for $481.0 million. The assets acquired include 2.3 billion cubic feet per day of processing capacity, 66,000 barrels per day of fractionation capacity, 2.4 million barrels of underground storage and 400 miles of liquids transport lines. The Partnership financed the acquisition with net proceeds totaling $228.0 million from the issuance of common units and senior subordinated units (including the 2% general partner contributions totaling $4.7 million) and borrowings under its bank credit facility for the remaining balance.

Operating results for the El Paso assets have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations since November 1, 2005. The following unaudited pro forma results of operations assume that the El Paso acquisition occurred on January 1, 2005 (in thousands, except per unit amounts):

On June 29, 2006, we amended our bank credit facility, increasing availability under the facility to $1 billion, with an option to increase the aggregate commitment to $1.3 billion pursuant to an accordion provision. The maturity date was extended from November 2010 to June 2011.

CROSSTEX ENERGY, L.P.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

Under the amended credit agreement, borrowings bear interest at our option at the administrative agent’s reference rate plus 0% to 0.25% or LIBOR plus 1.00% to 1.75%. The applicable margin varies quarterly based on our leverage ratio. The fees charged for letters of credit range from 1.00% to 1.75% per annum, plus a fronting fee of 0.125% per annum. We will incur quarterly commitment fees based on the unused amount of the credit facilities. The amendment to the credit facility also adjusted financial covenants requiring us to maintain:


	•	an initial ratio of total funded debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (each as defined in the credit agreement), measured quarterly on a rolling four-quarter basis, of 5.25 to 1.0, pro forma for any asset acquisitions. The maximum leverage ratio is reduced to 4.75 to 1 beginning July 1, 2007 and further reduces to 4.25 to 1 on January 1, 2008. The maximum leverage ratio increases to 5.25 to 1 during an acquisition adjustment period, as defined in the credit agreement; and

	•	a minimum interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement), measured quarterly on a rolling four quarter basis, equal to 3.0 to 1.0.

On July 26, 2006, we issued $245.0 million of additional notes under the shelf agreement, increasing the amounts outstanding to $502.6 million. Proceeds were used to pay bank indebtedness.

We were in compliance with all debt covenants at June 30, 2006 and expect to be in compliance for the next twelve months.

Additionally, the credit agreement was amended to allow for borrowings under our senior secured note shelf agreement to increase from $260 million to $510 million. See Note (9) Subsequent Event regarding new borrowings under senior secured notes in July 2006.


(5)	Partners’ Capital

Issuance of Units

On June 29, 2006, the Partnership issued an aggregate of 12,829,650 senior subordinated series C units representing limited partner interests of the Partnership in a private equity offering for net proceeds of approximately $359.4 million. The senior subordinated series C units were issued at $28.06, which represents a discount of 25% to the market value of common units on such date. CEI purchased 6,414,830 of the senior subordinated series C units issued at that price. In addition, Crosstex Energy GP, L.P. made a general partner contribution of $9.0 million which represents a 2% general partner interest on the market value of the private equity offering.

The senior subordinated series C units will automatically convert into common units representing limited partner interests of the Partnership on the first date on or after February 16, 2008 that conversion is permitted by our partnership agreement at a ratio of one common unit for each senior subordinated series C unit. Our partnership agreement will permit the conversion of the senior subordinated series C 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 February 16, 2008, 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 C units are not entitled to distributions of available cash from the Partnership until February 16, 2008.

On June 24, 2005, the Partnership issued 1,495,410 senior subordinated units in a private equity offering for net proceeds of $51.1 million, including our general partners’ $1.1 million capital contribution. The senior subordinated units were issued at $33.44 per unit, which represents a discount of 13.7% to the market value of common units on such date. These units automatically converted to common units on a one-for-one basis on February 24, 2006. The senior subordinated units received no distributions until their conversion to common units.

CROSSTEX ENERGY, L.P.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

Cash Distributions

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 the senior subordinated series C 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 our general partner is entitled to 13% of amounts we distribute in excess of $0.25 per unit, 23% of the amounts we distribute in excess of $0.3125 per unit and 48% of amounts we distribute in excess of $0.375 per unit. Incentive distributions totaling $5.0 million and $2.2 million were earned by our general partner for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005, respectively. Incentive distributions totaling $9.7 million and $4.2 million were earned in the six-month period ending June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005, 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.

The Partnership has declared a second quarter 2006 distribution of $0.54 per unit to be paid on August 15, 2006 to unitholders of record as of August 2, 2006.


(6)	Derivatives

The Partnership manages its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices by hedging the impact of market fluctuations. Swaps are used to manage and to 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.

The Partnership commonly enters into various derivative financial transactions which it does not designate as hedges. These include transactions “swing swaps”, “third party on-system financial swaps”, “marketing financial swaps”, “storage swaps”, and “basis 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.

In August 2005, the Partnership acquired puts, or rights to sell a portion of the liquids from the plants at a fixed price over a two-year period beginning January 1, 2006, as part of the overall risk management plan related to the acquisition of the El Paso assets. Because the underlying volumes relate to assets which, at September 30, 2005, were not yet owned by the Partnership, the puts do not qualify for hedge accounting and are marked to market through the Partnership’s Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006.

Set forth below is the summarized notional amount and terms of all instruments held for price risk management purposes at June 30, 2006 (all quantities are expressed in British Thermal Units). The remaining term of the contracts extend no later than March 2008 for derivatives, excluding third-party on-system financial swaps, and extend to October 2009 for third-party on-system financial swaps. The Partnership’s counterparties to hedging contracts include BP Corporation, Total Gas & Power, Cinergy, UBS Energy, Morgan Stanley and J. Aron & Co., a subsidiary of Goldman Sachs. Changes in the fair value of the Partnership’s derivatives related to third party producers and customers’ gas marketing activities are recorded in earnings in the period the transaction is entered into. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income until the related anticipated future cash flow is recognized in earnings and the ineffective portion is recorded in earnings.

Impact of Cash Flow Hedges

Natural Gas

In the six months ended June 30, 2006, net gains on futures and basis swap hedge contracts increased gas revenue by $0.4 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, net losses on futures and basis swap hedge contracts decreased gas revenue by $0.3 million. In the three months ended June 30, 2006, net gains on futures and basis swap hedge contracts increased gas revenue by $0.9 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2005, net losses on futures and basis swap hedge contracts decreased gas revenue by $0.3 million. As of June 30, 2006, an unrealized derivative fair value gain of $5.3 million, related to cash flow hedges of gas price risk, was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). As of June 30, 2006, $4.9 million of the fair value gain is expected to be reclassified into earnings through June 2007. 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 futures contracts and basis swap agreements related to July 2006 gas production reduced gas revenue by approximately $1.0 million.

Liquids

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, net gains on liquids swap hedge contracts increased liquids revenue by approximately $1.1 million. For the three months ending June 30, 2006, net losses on liquids swap hedge contracts decreased liquids revenue by less than $0.1 million. As of June 30, 2006, an unrealized derivative fair value loss of $4.2 million related to cash flow hedges of liquids price risk was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). As of June 30, 2006, $3.2 million of the fair value loss is expected to be reclassified into earnings through June 2007. 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, basis swap, swing swaps and storage 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 along with the net operating results from Producer Services 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):

$18.7 million and $20.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and received approximately $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively, in treating fees from Camden. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 the Partnership received treating fees of $0.7 million and $0.2 million from Erskine and Approach respectively.

Purchase of Senior Subordinated Series C Units by Related Parties

On June 29, 2006, CEI purchased $180.0 million and Lubar Equity Fund, LLC purchased $8.0 million of our senior subordinated series C units issued in a private placement. The funds raised in the private offering were used to acquire the natural gas gathering pipeline systems and related facilities of Chief Holdings LLC. Mr. Sheldon B. Lubar is a member of the board of directors of the general partner of the general partner of the Partnership and is a member of CEI’s board and is also an affiliate of Lubar Equity Fund, LLC.


(8)	Commitments and Contingencies


*(a)*	*Employment Agreements*

Each member of senior management of the Partnership is a party to an employment contract with the general partner. 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 acquired the south Louisiana processing assets from El Paso Corporation in November 2005. One of the acquired locations, the Cow Island Gas Processing Facility, 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 drastically reduce the remediation time as well as the costs associated with such remediation projects.

The estimated remediation costs are expected to be approximately $0.3 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.

In conjunction with the acquisition of the Hanover assets in January 2006, the Partnership and Hanover Compressor Company on January 11, 2006 jointly filed a “Notice of Intent” for coverage under the Texas Environmental, Health and Safety Audit Privilege Act (“Audit Act”) pending the asset sale transaction. Coverage under the Audit Act allows for an environmental compliance audit of the facility operations, applicable laws, regulations and permits to be conducted. Pursuant to Section 19(g) of the Audit Act, immunity for certain violations that are voluntarily disclosed as a result of a compliance audit is granted. Pursuant to Section 4(e) of the Audit Act, the audit will be completed within six months of the date of its commencement.


*(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.

(9)	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 Mississippi System, the Conroe System, the Gulf Coast System, the Corpus Christi System, the Gregory Gathering System located around the Corpus Christi area, the Arkoma system in Oklahoma, the Vanderbilt System located in south Texas, the LIG pipelines and processing plants located in Louisiana, the south Louisiana processing and liquids assets, the natural gas pipeline located in the Barnett Shale and various other small systems. Also included in the Midstream division are the Partnership’s Energy Trading activities. 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. Also included in the Treating division are four gathering systems that are connected to the treating plants and the Seminole plant located in Gaines County, Texas.

The Partnership evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on earnings before income taxes, interest of non-controlling partners in the Partnership’s net income and accounting changes, and after an allocation of corporate expenses. Corporate expenses and stock-based compensation are allocated to the segments on a pro rata basis based on the number of employees within the segments. Interest expense is allocated on a pro rata basis based on segment assets. Inter-segment sales are at cost.

Summarized financial information concerning the Partnership’s reportable segments is shown in the following table. The information includes all significant non-cash items.

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

We are a Delaware limited partnership formed by Crosstex Energy, Inc. (“CEI”) on July 12, 2002 to indirectly acquire substantially all of the assets, liabilities and operations of our predecessor, Crosstex Energy Services, Ltd. We have two industry segments, Midstream and Treating, with a geographic focus along the Texas Gulf Coast, the North Texas Barnett Shale area, Louisiana and Mississippi. Our Midstream division focuses on the gathering, processing, transmission and marketing of natural gas and natural gas liquids, or NGLs, as well as providing certain producer services, while our 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, 2006, 79% of our gross margin was generated in the Midstream division with the balance in the Treating division. We manage our business by focusing on gross margin because our business is generally to purchase and resell gas for a margin, or to gather, process, transport, market or treat gas and NGLs for a fee. We buy and sell most of our gas at a fixed relationship to the relevant index price, and hedge a significant portion of the gas that is bought based on a percentage of the relevant index in order to protect our margins from changes in gas prices. In addition, we receive certain fees for processing based on a percentage of the liquids produced and enter into hedge contracts for our expected share of the liquids to protect our margins from changes in liquids prices. As explained under “Commodity Price Risk” below, we enter into financial instruments to reduce volatility in our gross margin due to price fluctuations.

Since the formation of our predecessor, we have grown significantly as a result of our construction and acquisition of gathering and transmission pipelines and treating and processing plants. From January 1, 2000 through June 30, 2006, we have invested over $1.6 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.

Our Midstream segment margins are determined primarily by the volumes of natural gas gathered, transported, purchased and sold through our pipeline systems or processed at our processing facilities, and the volumes of NGLs handled at our fractionation facilities. Our Treating segment margins are largely a function of the number and size of treating plants in operation and fees earned for removing impurities from NGLs at a non-operated processing plant. We generate revenues from five primary sources:


	•	purchasing and reselling or transporting natural gas on the pipeline systems we own;

	•	processing natural gas at our processing plants and fractionating and marketing the recovered NGLs;

	•	treating natural gas at our treating plants;

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

	•	providing off-system marketing services for producers.

The bulk of our operating profits has historically been derived from the margins we realize for gathering and transporting natural gas through our pipeline systems. Generally, we buy gas from a producer, plant or transporter at either a fixed discount to a market index or a percentage of the market index. We then transport and resell the gas. The resale price is based on the same index price at which the gas was purchased, and, if we are to be profitable, at a smaller discount or larger premium to the index than it was purchased. We attempt to execute all purchases and sales substantially concurrently, or we enter into a future delivery obligation, thereby establishing the basis for the margin we will receive for each natural gas transaction. Our 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 we manage our business to reduce the impact of price volatility.

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

We generate treating revenues under three arrangements:


	•	a fixed fee for operating the plant for a certain period, which accounted for approximately 47% and 40% of the operating income in our Treating division for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively;

	•	a volumetric fee based on the amount of gas treated, which accounted for approximately 37% and 51% of the operating income in our Treating division for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively; or

	•	a fee arrangement in which the producer operates the plant, which accounted for approximately 16% and 9% of the operating income in our Treating division for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, 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 facility.

We have grown significantly through asset purchases in recent years. These acquisitions create many of the major differences when comparing operating results from one period to another. The most significant asset purchases since January 2005 were the acquisition of the Chief Holdings LLC (“Chief”) natural gas pipeline systems and related facilities in the Barnett Shale in June 2006, the acquisition of Hanover Compression Company’s treating assets in February 2006, the acquisition of El Paso Corporation’s processing and liquids business in southern Louisiana in November 2005, the acquisition of Graco Operations’ treating assets in January 2005 and the acquisition of Cardinal Gas Services’ treating and dewpoint control assets in May 2005.

On June 29, 2006, we acquired the natural gas gathering pipeline systems and related facilities of Chief in the Barnett Shale for $475.4 million. The acquired systems consist of approximately 250 miles of existing pipeline with up to an additional 400 miles of planned pipelines, 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 million cubic feet per day CO₂ treating plant and compression facilities with 26,000 horsepower. At closing, approximately 160,000 net acres previously owned by Chief and acquired by Devon Energy Corporation simultaneously with our acquisition and 60,000 net acres owned by other producers were dedicated to the systems.

On February 1, 2006, we acquired 48 amine treating plants from a subsidiary of Hanover Compression Company for $51.5 million. After this acquisition we have approximately 160 treating plants in operation and a total fleet of approximately 190 units.

On November 1, 2005 we acquired El Paso Corporation’s processing and liquids business in south Louisiana for $481.0 million. The assets acquired include 2.3 billion cubic feet per day of processing capacity, 66,000 barrels per day of fractionation capacity, 2.4 million barrels of underground storage and 400 miles of liquids transport lines. The primary facilities and other assets we acquired consist of: (1) the Eunice processing plant and fractionation facility; (2) the Pelican processing plant; (3) the Sabine Pass processing plant; (4) a 23.85% interest in the Blue Water gas processing plant; (5) the Riverside fractionator and loading facility; (6) the Cajun Sibon pipeline; and (7) the Napoleonville natural gas liquid storage facility. In 2006 we acquired an additional 35.42% interest in the Blue Water gas processing plant for $16.3 million and became the operator of the plant.

On January 2, 2005, we acquired all of the assets of Graco Operations for $9.26 million. Graco’s assets consisted of 26 treating plants and associated inventory. On May 1, 2005, we acquired all of the assets of Cardinal Gas Services for $6.7 million. Cardinal’s assets consisted of nine gas treating plants, 19 operating wellhead gas processing plants for dewpoint suppression and equipment inventory.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2006 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2005

Gross Margin and Profit on Energy Trading Activities. Midstream gross margin was $52.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $25.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $27.0 million, or 107%. This increase was primarily due to acquisitions, increased system throughput, and a favorable processing environment for natural gas liquids.

The south Louisiana natural gas processing and liquids business acquired from El Paso Corporation (“El Paso”) in November 2005 contributed $20.5 million to Midstream gross margin in the second quarter of 2006. This amount was driven by the three largest processing plants, Eunice, Pelican and Sabine Pass, which contributed gross margin amounts of $6.7 million, $6.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The Riverside fractionation facility also contributed $2.9 million in gross margin to the south Louisiana operations. Operational improvements and volume increases on the Mississippi system contributed margin growth of $2.2 million. Increased processing volumes at the Gibson and Plaquemine plants, due to recent drilling successes by producers, and increased unit margins due to favorable NGLs markets accounted for $2.5 million increased gross margin. The North Texas Pipeline (“NTPL”) commenced operation during the second quarter of 2006 and contributed $2.0 million in gross margin.

Treating gross margin was $13.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $9.3 million in the same period in 2005, an increase of $4.6 million, or 49%. Treating plants in service increased from 100 plants in June 2005 to 160 plants in June 2006. The increase is primarily due to the acquisition of the amine treating assets from Hanover Compressor Company in February 2006. New plants in service contributed approximately $4.3 million to Treating gross margin. Growth in upstream services during the second quarter of 2006 contributed an additional $0.3 million to gross margin.

Profit on energy trading activity increased from a profit of $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 to a profit of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Energy trading activity included approximately a $0.3 million gain associated with realized energy trading swap activities. The remaining increase was due to south Louisiana margin activity.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $22.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $12.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $10.7 million, or 87.6%. Midstream operating expenses increased by $7.6 million due to the acquisition of the south Louisiana assets from El Paso. The growth in treating plants in service increased operating expenses by $1.7 million. Other Midstream increases were due to the commencement of operations of the NTPL of $0.3 million and additional compressor costs on existing assets of $0.7 million. Operating expenses included $0.2 million of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005 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 $10.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $3.2 million, or 40.9%. A substantial part of the increased expenses resulted primarily from staffing related costs of $2.2 million. The staff additions associated with the requirements of the El Paso and Hanover acquisitions accounted for the majority of the $2.2 million costs. General and administrative expenses included stock-based compensation expense of $1.9 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The $0.8 million increase in stock-based compensation, determined in accordance with SFAS No. 123R,“Share Based Compensation” (“FAS 123R”) during 2006 and in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Options No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB25”) in 2005, primarily relates to restricted stock and unit grants.

Gain/Loss on Derivatives. We had a loss on derivatives of $3.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to a gain of $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005. The loss in 2006 includes a loss of $2.7 million on puts acquired in 2005 related to the acquisition of the El Paso assets, a loss of $1.4 million associated with our basis swaps, a loss of $0.1 million due to ineffectiveness and a gain of $0.3 million associated with derivatives for third-party on-system financial transactions and storage financial transactions (including $0.1 million of realized gains). As of June 30, 2006, the fair value of the puts was $1.4 million.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $7.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $11.3 million, or 153.8%. Midstream depreciation and amortization increased $8.5 million due to the acquisition of the south Louisiana assets and intangibles and $0.9 million due to the NTPL which was placed in service April 2006. New treating plants placed in service and assets acquired from Hanover resulted in an increase of $1.3 million of depreciation and amortization expenses. The remaining $0.6 million increase in depreciation and amortization expenses is a result of expansion projects, including our office expansions and other new assets.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $11.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $8.7 million, or 272.0%. The increase relates primarily to an increase in debt outstanding and higher interest rates between the three-month periods (weighted average rate of 6.8% in 2006 compared to 6.0% in 2005).

Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2005

Gross Margin and Profit on Energy Trading Activities. Midstream gross margin was $98.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $48.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $49.5 million, or 101%. This increase was primarily due to acquisitions, increased system throughput, and a favorable processing environment for NGLs.

The south Louisiana natural gas processing and liquids business acquired from El Paso in November 2005 contributed $38.2 million to Midstream gross margin in the first half of 2006. This amount was driven by the three largest processing plants, Eunice, Pelican and Sabine Pass, which contributed gross margin amounts of $17.1 million, $8.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively. The Riverside fractionation facility also contributed $3.2 million in gross margin to the south Louisiana operations. Operational improvements and volume increases on the Mississippi and LIG systems contributed margin growth of $4.8 million and $2.7 million, respectively. Increased processing volumes at the Gibson and Plaquemine plants, due to recent drilling successes by producers, and increased unit margins due to favorable NGLs markets accounted for $4.5 million of increased gross margin. The NTPL commenced operation during the second quarter of 2006 and contributed $2.0 million in gross margin. These

gains were partially offset by a margin decline of $2.3 million on the Gregory system in South Texas due to lower throughput volumes.

Treating gross margin was $26.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $17.7 million in the same period in 2005, an increase of $8.3 million, or 47%. Treating plants in service increased from 100 plants in June 2005 to 160 plants in June 2006. The increase is primarily due to the acquisition of the amine treating assets from Hanover Compressor Company in February 2006. New plants in service contributed approximately $7.2 million to Treating gross margin. Growth in upstream services during the first half of 2006 contributed an additional $0.4 million to gross margin. Existing plant assets contributed $0.7 million in gross margin growth primarily due to plant expansion projects and increased volumes.

The profit on energy trading activities was $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $0.3 million. The increase primarily relates to energy trading activity on the south Louisiana assets.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $44.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $23.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $21.1 million, or 88.9%. An increase of $15.2 million of operating expenses was associated with the acquisition of the south Louisiana assets. The growth in the number of treating plants in service increased operating expenses by $3.0 million. Other Midstream increases were due to additional compressor costs on existing assets of $1.3 million and the commencement of operations of the NTPL of $0.3 million. General operations expenses (expenses not directly related to specific assets) exceeded the June 2005 comparative period by $1.2 million. Operating expenses included $0.5 million of stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $0.2 million of stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2005.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $22.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $14.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $8.1 million, or 56.7%. A substantial part of the increased expenses resulted from increased staffing related costs of $5.1 million. The staff additions associated with the requirements of the El Paso and Hanover acquisitions accounted for the majority of the $5.1 million in increased costs. General and administrative expenses included stock-based compensation expense of $3.4 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The $2.1 million increase in stock-based compensation, determined in accordance with FAS 123R during 2006 and in accordance with APB25 in 2005, primarily relates to restricted stock and unit grants. Other expenses, including audit, legal and other consulting fees, office rent, travel and training accounted for $1.0 million of the increase.

Gain/Loss on Derivatives. We had a loss on derivatives of $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to a loss of $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The loss in 2006 includes a loss of $3.8 million on puts acquired in 2005 related to the acquisition of the El Paso assets and a loss of $0.5 million associated with our basis swaps offset by a gain of $2.5 million associated with derivatives for third-party on-system financial transactions and storage financial transactions (including $1.3 million of realized gains). As of June 30, 2006, the fair value of the puts was $1.4 million.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $35.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $14.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $21.5 million, or 150.0%. The increase in depreciation and amortization expenses related to the south Louisiana assets and intangibles was $16.8 million. The new plants acquired from Hanover, together with new treating plants placed in service, resulted in an increase of $2.5 million. The remaining $2.2 million increase in depreciation and amortization expenses is a result of expansion projects, including our office expansions and other new assets including the NTPL.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $20.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $6.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $13.8 million. The increase relates primarily to an increase in debt outstanding and higher interest rates between six-month periods (weighted average rate of 6.7% in 2006 compared to 6.2% in 2005).

Information regarding the Partnership’s Critical Accounting Policies is included in Item 7 of the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows. Net cash provided by operating activities was $37.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Income before non-cash income and expenses was $43.6 million in 2006 and $24.5 million in 2005. Changes in working capital used $5.9 million in cash flows from operating activities in 2006 as compared to $9.2 million in cash flows used by working capital changes in 2005.

Net cash used in investing activities was $650.4 million and $41.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Net cash used in investing activities during 2006 related to the $475.4 million acquisition of assets from Chief, the $51.5 million acquisition of Hanover’s treating assets, and a $16.3 million acquisition of an additional interest in the Blue Water processing plant. The connection of new wells to various systems, pipeline integrity projects, pipeline relocations and various other internal growth projects totaled $97.9 million for the first half of 2006, including $36.4 million related to the new NTPL project and $23.8 million for the Parker County gathering project.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $612.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $22.7 million provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Net cash provided by financing activities included $368.4 million from the issuance of senior subordinated series C units, including the general partner contribution, net borrowings under the amended credit facility of $238.0 million and net borrowings under our senior secured notes of $58.2 million. Distributions to partners totaled $36.2 million in the first half of 2006 compared to distributions in the first half of 2005 of $20.7 million. Drafts payable decreased by $14.1 million requiring the use of cash in the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to a decrease in drafts payable of $12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. In order to reduce our interest costs, we do 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 our revolving credit facility.

Working Capital Deficit. We had a working capital deficit of $20.5 million as of June 30, 2006, primarily due to accounts payable of $36.5 million recorded as a result of the Chief Acquisition and drafts payable of $15.8 million. As discussed under “Cash Flows” above, in order to reduce our interest costs we do not borrow money to fund outstanding checks until they are presented to our bank. We borrow money under our bank credit facility to fund checks as they are presented. As of June 30, 2006, we had $380.1 million of available borrowings under this facility.

Issuance of Senior Subordinated Series C Units. On June 29, 2006, we issued an aggregate of 12,829,650 senior subordinated series C units representing limited partner interests in a private equity offering for net proceeds of $360.0 million. The senior subordinated series C units were issued at a purchase price of $28.06 per unit, which represents a discount of 25% to the market value of common units on such date. CEI purchased 6,414,830 of the senior subordinated series C units issued at that price. In addition, Crosstex Energy GP, L.P. made a general partner contribution of $9.0 million in connection with this issuance which represents a 2% general partner contribution on the market value of the issued units.

Capital Requirements. The natural gas gathering, transmission, treating and processing businesses are capital-intensive, requiring significant investment to maintain and upgrade existing operations. Our capital requirements have consisted primarily of, and we anticipate 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 our assets and to extend their useful lives, or other capital expenditures which do not increase our cash flows; and

	•	growth capital expenditures such as those to acquire additional assets to grow our 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 our objective of growth through acquisitions, we anticipate that we will continue to invest significant amounts of capital to grow and acquire assets. We actively consider a variety of assets for potential acquisitions.

We believe that cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our present quarterly distribution level of $0.54 per quarter and to fund a portion of our anticipated capital expenditures through June 30, 2007. Total capital expenditures are budgeted to be approximately $82.0 million for the remainder of 2006. We expect to fund the remaining capital expenditures from the proceeds of borrowings under the revolving credit facility discussed below. Our ability to pay distributions to our unit holders and to fund planned capital expenditures and to make acquisitions will depend upon our future operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions in our industry and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2006.

Indebtedness

As of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, long-term debt consisted of the following (in thousands):


	June 30,			December 31,
	2006			2005

Bank credit facility, interest based on Prime and/or LIBOR plus an applicable margin, interest rates (per the facility) at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 were 7.18% and 6.69%, respectively	$	560,001		$	322,000
Senior secured notes, weighted average interest rates at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 of 6.57% and 6.64%, respectively		258,236			200,000
Note payable to Florida Gas Transmission Company		600			650

		818,837			522,650
Less current portion		(10,012	)		(6,521	)

Debt classified as long-term	$	808,825		$	516,129


	•	an initial ratio of total funded debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (each as defined in the credit agreement), measured quarterly on a rolling four-quarter basis, of 5.25 to 1.0, pro forma for any asset acquisitions. The maximum leverage ratio is reduced to 4.75 to 1 beginning July 1, 2007 and further reduces to 4.25 to 1 on January 1, 2008. The maximum leverage ratio increases to 5.25 to 1 during an acquisition adjustment period, as defined in the credit agreement; and

	•	a minimum interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement), measured quarterly on a rolling four quarter basis, equal to 3.0 to 1.0.

Additionally, the credit agreement was amended to allow for borrowings under our senior secured note shelf agreement to increase from $260 million to $510 million.

On July 26, 2006, we added $245.0 million of additional notes under the shelf agreement, increasing the amounts outstanding to $502.6 million. Proceeds were used to pay bank indebtedness.

We were in compliance with all debt covenants at June 30, 2006 and expect to be in compliance for the next twelve months.

Total Contractual Cash Obligations. A summary of our total contractual cash obligations as of June 30, 2006, is as follows:


	Payments Due by Period
	Total		2006		2007		2008		2009		2010		Thereafter
	(In millions)

Long-Term Debt	$	808.8	$	10.0	$	9.4	$	9.4	$	20.3	$	32.0	$	727.7
Capital Lease Obligations		—		—		—		—		—		—		—
Operating Leases		93.6		7.9		15.6		15.3		14.9		14.7		25.2
Unconditional Purchase Obligations		14.7		14.7		—		—		—		—		—

Total Contractual Obligations	$	917.1	$	32.6	$	25.0	$	24.7	$	35.2	$	46.7	$	752.9

The above table does not include any physical or financial contract purchase commitments for natural gas.

The unconditional purchase obligations for 2006 primarily relate to the purchase of pipe for the construction of the North Louisiana Pipeline extension.

Recently issued Accounting Standard

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” and must be adopted by the Partnership no later than January 1, 2007. 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 is a pass thru entity and does not expect a major impact on financial statement presentation as a result of FIN 48.

Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 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. Statements included in this report which are not historical facts (including any statements concerning plans and objectives of management for future operations or economic performance, or assumptions or forecasts related thereto), including, without limitation, the information set forth in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” 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. In addition to specific uncertainties discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, the risk factors set forth in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, and those set forth in Part III, “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 4.	*Controls and Procedures*


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

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Crosstex Energy GP, LLC, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not

effective as of June 30, 2006 in alerting them in a timely manner to material information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In September 2006, we determined that a purchase of natural gas from a supplier on newly acquired assets was not accrued in the first quarter of 2006 due to a clerical error. We identified this error and promptly brought it to the attention of our audit committee and auditors. To correct this error, we have restated our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2006, our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006, our consolidated statement of changes in partners’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2006, our consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and our consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2006. We have also restated our notes to consolidated financial statements as necessary to reflect the adjustment. This error resulted from a deficiency in the procedures to settle gas purchases through our accounting systems and to reconcile prepayments to suppliers on our general ledger. We have reviewed these matters and advised our Audit Committee that the deficiency constituted a material weakness. Since the first quarter of 2006, we have implemented accounting system improvements and conducted additional training of new personnel. In addition, we have added new procedures for the analysis of account reconciliations and a more detailed analytical review of gross margin cycle accounts.


*(b)*	*Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting*

Except as set forth above, there has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred in the three months ended June 30, 2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
