Note 1 – Partnership Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

On August 7, 2010, Inergy, L.P. (“Inergy”) and Inergy Holdings, L.P. (“Holdings”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, which was amended and restated by the First Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 3, 2010, as part of a plan to simplify the capital structures of Inergy and Holdings (the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the steps contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Simplification Transaction”), Holdings merged into a wholly owned subsidiary of its general partner (the “Merger”) and the outstanding common units in Holdings were cancelled. The Merger closed on November 5, 2010, resulting in Holdings unitholders receiving 0.77 Inergy units for each Holdings unit. Cash was paid to Holdings unitholders in lieu of any fractional units that resulted from the exchange. As a result of the closing, Holdings common units discontinued trading on the New York Stock Exchange as of the close of business on November 5, 2010. Holdings continues to own the managing general partner of Inergy subsequent to the Merger.

The Simplification Transaction was accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810. Under ASC 810, the exchange of Holdings units for Inergy units was accounted for as a Holdings equity issuance and Holdings was the surviving entity. Although Holdings was the surviving entity for accounting purposes, Inergy was the surviving entity for legal purposes as provided for by the Merger Agreement; consequently, the name on these financial statements was changed from “Inergy Holdings, L.P.” to “Inergy, L.P.”

Historically, Holdings ownership of Inergy’s general partner, Inergy GP, LLC (“Inergy GP”), provided Holdings with an approximate 0.6% general partner interest in Inergy. Holdings also owned an approximate 6.0% limited partner interest in Inergy at September 30, 2010.

Because of the changes the Simplification Transaction has had on these financial statements and Inergy’s organizational structure, and because the nature of the pre-simplification and post-simplification Inergy entities are significantly different, these notes to consolidated financial statements refer to specific Inergy entities, with Inergy, L.P. prior to the simplification referred to as “Holdings” and after the simplification as “Inergy”, and the controlled operating subsidiary of Inergy, L.P. prior to the Merger is referred to as “Inergy”. References to “the Company” or “Inergy” in the footnotes related to the policies and procedures of Inergy, L.P. refer to Inergy, L.P. subsequent to the simplification. Other references to “the Company” or “we”, “our” and “us” throughout the document refer to the controlled subsidiary of Inergy, L.P. prior to the simplification if the timing of the statement is prior to November 5, 2010, and to Inergy, L.P. subsequent to the simplification if the timing of the statement is subsequent to November 5, 2010. The operating activities of the Inergy, L.P. controlled subsidiary prior to the Merger and Inergy, L.P. subsequent to the Merger are identical.

Nature of Operations

Inergy’s financial statements reflect two operating and reportable segments: propane operations and midstream operations. Inergy’s propane operations include propane sales to end users, the sale of propane-related appliances and service work for propane-related equipment, the sale of distillate products and wholesale distribution of propane and marketing and price risk management services to other users, retailers and resellers of propane. Inergy’s midstream operations include storage of natural gas and natural gas liquids for third parties, fractionation of natural gas liquids, processing of natural gas, distribution of natural gas liquids and the production and sale of salt.

Basis of Presentation

The financial information contained herein as of March 31, 2011, and for the three-month and six-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, is unaudited. The Company believes this information has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The Company also believes this information includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended. The propane business is largely seasonal due to propane’s primary use as a heating source in residential and commercial buildings. Accordingly, the results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended March 31, 2011, are not indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Financial Instruments and Price Risk Management

Inergy utilizes certain derivative financial instruments to (i) manage its exposure to commodity price risk, specifically, the related change in the fair value of inventories, as well as the variability of cash flows related to forecasted transactions; (ii) ensure adequate physical supply of commodity will be available; and (iii) manage its exposure to interest rate risk associated with fixed rate borrowings. Inergy records all derivative instruments on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of these derivative financial instruments are recorded either through current earnings or as other comprehensive income, depending on the type of transaction.

Inergy is party to certain commodity derivative financial instruments that are designated as hedges of selected inventory positions, and qualify as fair value hedges. Inergy is also periodically party to certain interest rate swap agreements designed to manage interest rate risk exposure. Inergy’s overall objective for entering into fair value hedges is to manage its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices and changes in the fair market value of its inventories and fixed rate borrowings. The commodity derivatives are recorded at fair value on the balance sheets as price risk management assets or liabilities and the related change in fair value is recorded to earnings in the current period as cost of product sold. The interest rate derivatives are recorded at fair value on the balance sheets in other assets or liabilities and the related change in fair value is recorded to earnings in the current period as interest expense.

Any ineffective portion of the fair value hedges is recognized as cost of product sold in the current period. Inergy recognized a net loss of $0.9 million and no net loss in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and no net gain and a $0.3 million net gain in the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related to the ineffective portion of its fair value hedging instruments. In addition, Inergy recognized no gain for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, and no gain and a net gain of $0.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related to the portion of fair value hedging instruments that it excluded from its assessment of hedge effectiveness.

Inergy also enters into derivative financial instruments that qualify as cash flow hedges, which hedge the exposure of variability in expected future cash flows predominantly attributable to forecasted purchases to supply fixed price sale contracts. These derivatives are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value as price risk management assets or liabilities. The effective portion of the gain or loss on these cash flow hedges is recorded in other comprehensive income in partner’s capital and reclassified into earnings as a component of cost of product sold in the same period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. In certain situations under the rules, the ineffective portion of the gain or loss is recognized as cost of product sold in the current period. Accumulated other comprehensive income was $0.7 million and $4.4 million at March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively. Approximately $1.3 million is expected to be reclassified to earnings from other comprehensive income over the next twelve months. Inergy’s comprehensive income was $31.0 million and $69.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $71.5 million and $121.7 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Inergy’s policy is to offset fair value amounts of derivative instruments and cash collateral paid or received with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement.

INERGY, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

The cash flow impact of derivative financial instruments is reflected as cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Revenue Recognition

Sales of propane, other liquids and salt are recognized at the time product is shipped or delivered to the customer depending on the sales terms. Gas processing and fractionation fees are recognized upon delivery of the product. Revenue from the sale of propane appliances and equipment is recognized at the later of the time of sale or installation. Revenue from repairs and maintenance is recognized upon completion of the service. Revenue from storage contracts is recognized during the period in which storage services are provided.

Expense Classification

Cost of product sold consists of tangible products sold including all propane and other natural gas liquids, salt and all propane related appliances, as well as certain direct costs incurred in providing storage services. Operating and administrative expenses consist of all expenses incurred other than those described above in cost of product sold and depreciation and amortization. Certain operating and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization are incurred in the distribution of product and storage sales but are not included in cost of product sold. These amounts were $53.4 million and $46.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $105.5 million and $89.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively,.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Inventories

Inventories for propane operations, which mainly consist of propane gas and other liquids, are stated at the lower of cost or market and are computed using the average cost method. Wholesale propane and other liquids inventories are designated under a fair value hedge program and are consequently marked to market. Propane and other liquids inventories being hedged and carried at market value at March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, amount to $13.1 million and $82.6 million, respectively. Inventories for midstream operations are stated at the lower of cost or market and are computed predominantly using the average cost method.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs are recorded as part of cost of product sold at the time product is shipped or delivered to the customer except as discussed in “Expense Classification”.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:

	Years
Buildings and improvements		25–40
Office furniture and equipment		3–10
Vehicles		5–10
Tanks and plant equipment		5–30

Salt deposits are depleted on a unit of production method.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

The Company has recorded certain identifiable intangible assets, including customer accounts, covenants not to compete, trademarks and deferred financing costs. Customer accounts, covenants not to compete and trademarks have arisen from acquisitions. Deferred financing costs represent financing costs incurred in obtaining financing and are being amortized over the term of the related debt. Additionally, an acquired intangible asset should be separately recognized if the benefit of the intangible asset is obtained through contractual or other legal rights, or if the intangible asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged, regardless of the acquirer’s intent to do so.

Certain intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated economic lives, as follows:

	Years
Customer accounts		15
Covenants not to compete		2–10
Deferred financing costs		1–10

Trademarks have been assigned an indefinite economic life and are not being amortized, but are subject to an annual impairment evaluation.

Goodwill

Goodwill is recognized for various acquisitions as the excess of the cost of the acquisitions over the fair value of the related net assets at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair-value-based test.

In connection with the goodwill impairment evaluation, the Company identified five reporting units. The carrying value of each reporting unit is determined by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units as of the date of the evaluation on a specific identification basis. To the extent a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting unit’s goodwill may be impaired and the second step of the impairment test must be performed. In the second step, the implied fair value of the goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value to all of its assets (recognized and unrecognized) and liabilities to its carrying amount.

Inergy completed its annual impairment test for each of its reporting units and determined that no impairment existed as of September 30, 2010. No indicators of impairment were identified requiring an interim impairment test during the six-month period ended March 31, 2011.

Income Taxes

Inergy is a publicly-traded master limited partnership. Partnerships are generally not subject to federal income tax, although publicly-traded partnerships are treated as corporations for federal income tax purposes and therefore are subject to federal income tax, unless the partnership generates at least 90% of its gross income from qualifying sources. If the qualifying income requirement is satisfied, the publicly-traded partnership will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.

(“Services”), a subsidiary of Inergy, does not generate at least 90% of its gross income from qualifying sources, and as such, federal and state income taxes are provided on the taxable income of Services. The earnings of the Company and its limited liability subsidiaries are included in the Federal and state income tax returns of the individual members or partners. However, legislation in certain states allows for taxation of partnerships, and as such, certain state taxes for Inergy have been included in the accompanying financial statements as income taxes due to the nature of the tax in those particular states. In addition, Federal and state income taxes are provided on the earnings of the subsidiaries incorporated as taxable entities (IPCHA and Services). The Company is required to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using expected rates in effect for the year in which differences are expected to reverse.

Net earnings for financial statement purposes may differ significantly from taxable income reportable to unitholders as a result of differences between the tax basis and the financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities and the taxable income allocation requirements under the partnership agreement.

Sales Tax

Inergy accounts for the collection and remittance of sales tax on a net tax basis. As a result, these amounts are not reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.

Income Per Unit

Inergy calculates basic net income per limited partner unit by dividing net income applicable to partners’ common interest by the weighted-average number of units outstanding. Diluted net income per limited partner unit is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of units outstanding and the effect of dilutive units granted under the Long Term Incentive Plan.

Accounting for Unit-Based Compensation

Inergy has a unit-based employee compensation plan and all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations based on their fair values.

The amount of compensation expense recorded by the Company was $1.5 million and $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $2.9 million and $2.2 million during the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Segment Information

There are certain accounting requirements that establish standards for reporting information about operating segments, as well as related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. Further, they define operating segments as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assessing performance. In determining its reportable segments, Inergy examined the way it organizes its business internally for making operating decisions and assessing business performance. See Note 10 for disclosures related to Inergy’s propane and midstream segments.

Fair Value

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable (net of allowance for doubtful accounts) and payables are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their liquid and short-term nature. As of March 31, 2011, the estimated fair value of the fixed-rate Senior Notes, based on available trading information, totaled $1,531.0 million compared with the aggregate principal amount at maturity of $1,466.1 million. At March 31, 2011, the Company’s credit agreement (“Credit Agreement”) provided a $75 million revolving working capital facility (“Working Capital Facility”), a $450 million revolving general partnership facility (“General Partnership Facility”) and a $300 million term loan facility (“Term Loan Facility”). The carrying value at March 31, 2011, of amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement of $342.5 million approximate fair value due primarily to the floating interest rate associated with the Credit Agreement.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06”), which is included in the ASC Topic 820 (Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures). ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures on the amount and reason for transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. ASU 2010-06 also requires disclosure of activities, including purchases, sales, issuances and settlements within the Level 3 fair value measurements and clarifies existing disclosure requirements on levels of disaggregation and disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. The Company has previously adopted the new disclosures on the reason for transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2. The new disclosures for Level 3 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010.

The Company does not currently anticipate that the adoption of the Level 3 disclosure requirements of ASU 2010-06 will result in a material change to the financial statements.

Note 4 – Business Acquisitions

On October 14, 2010, Inergy completed the acquisition of Tres Palacios Gas Storage LLC (“Tres Palacios”), which owns and operates a natural gas storage facility located in Matagorda County, Texas. Tres Palacios is a high deliverability, salt dome natural gas storage facility with approximately 38.4 bcf of Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) certificated working gas capacity (Caverns 1-3). The facility is expandable by an additional 9.5 bcf of working gas capacity, which Inergy expects to place in service by or before 2014 (Cavern 4).

The Company is in the process of finalizing its valuations of certain property, plant and equipment as well as identifiable intangible assets; thus the provisional measurements of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill are subject to material change. The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date (in millions):

	October 14, 2010
Accounts receivable	$	6.3
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		0.8
Property, plant and equipment		414.0
Contractual rights		266.9
Other		1.0
Total identifiable assets acquired		689.0
Current liabilities		11.7
Total liabilities assumed		11.7
Net identifiable assets acquired		677.3
Goodwill		45.2
Net assets acquired	$	722.5

The $45.2 million of goodwill will be assigned to the midstream operations segment.

Tres Palacios leases the surface and subsurface rights necessary to operate and expand the storage facility under an operating lease that expires on December 31, 2037, which is subject to automatic renewal for two 20-year extension periods unless Tres Palacios elects not to extend the term of the lease. The lease payments vary based on the FERC-certificated working gas capacity of the caverns which are in service as well as an incremental payment for physical volumes of gas injected and / or withdrawn from the caverns in service. Based on its current estimates, which assumes Cavern 4 will be in service during the second fiscal quarter of 2014, Tres Palacios anticipates that the contractual obligation as of March 31, 2011, to be the following (in millions, excluding the above mentioned incremental payments as future volumes are currently unknown):

Total	Less than 1 year		1-3 years		4-5 years		After 5 years

These amounts have been calculated after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of Tres Palacios to reflect the depreciation that would have been charged assuming the preliminary fair value adjustments to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets had been made at the beginning of the respective period. The net income attributable to partners was further adjusted to give effect to the impact of the interest expense associated with the September 2010 bond offering that was utilized to finance a portion of the Tres Palacios acquisition.

Revenue and net loss (including an allocation of intercompany interest expense) generated by Tres Palacios subsequent to the Company’s acquisition on October 14, 2010, amounted to $23.9 million and $6.8 million, respectively.

On October 19, 2010, Inergy completed the acquisition of the propane assets of Schenck Gas Services, LLC (“Schenck”), located in East Hampton, New York.

On November 15, 2010, Inergy completed the acquisition of the propane assets of Pennington Energy Corporation (“Pennington”), headquartered in Morenci, Michigan.

The purchase price allocations for these acquisitions have been prepared on a preliminary basis pending final asset valuation and asset rationalization, and changes are expected when additional information becomes available. Changes to reflect final asset valuation of prior fiscal year acquisitions have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements but are not material.

Note 5 – Risk Management

The Company is exposed to certain market risks related to its ongoing business operations. These risks include exposure to changing commodity prices as well as fluctuations in interest rates. The Company utilizes derivative instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, which is discussed more fully below. The Company also periodically utilizes derivative instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, which is discussed more fully in Note 7. Additional information related to derivatives is provided in Note 2 and Note 6.

Commodity Derivative Instruments and Price Risk Management

Risk Management Activities

Inergy sells propane and other commodities to energy related businesses and may use a variety of financial and other instruments including forward contracts involving physical delivery of propane. Inergy will enter into offsetting positions to hedge against the exposure its customer contracts create. Inergy does not designate these instruments as hedging instruments. These instruments are marked to market with the changes in the market value reflected in cost of product sold. Inergy attempts to balance its contractual portfolio in terms of notional amounts and timing of performance and delivery obligations. This balance in the contractual portfolio significantly reduces the volatility in cost of product sold related to these instruments. However, immaterial net unbalanced positions can exist or are established based on assessment of anticipated short-term needs or market conditions.

Cash Flow Hedging Activity

Inergy sells propane and heating oil to retail customers at fixed prices. Inergy will enter into derivative instruments to hedge a significant portion of its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices as a result of selling the fixed price contracts. These instruments are identified and qualify to be treated as cash flow hedges. This accounting treatment requires the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative to be reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings.

INERGY, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

Fair Value Hedging Activity

Inergy will enter into derivative instruments to hedge its exposure to fluctuating commodity prices that results from maintaining its wholesale inventory. The instruments hedging wholesale inventory qualify to be treated as fair value hedges. This accounting treatment requires the fair value changes in both the derivative instruments and the hedged inventory to be recorded in cost of product sold.

A significant amount of inventory held in bulk storage facilities is hedged as it is not expected to be sold in the immediate future and is therefore exposed to fluctuations in commodity prices. Commodity inventory held at retail locations is not hedged as this inventory is expected to be sold in the immediate future and is therefore not exposed to fluctuations in commodity prices over an extended period of time.

Commodity Price and Credit Risk

Notional Amounts and Terms

The notional amounts and terms of the Company’s derivative financial instruments include the following at March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively (in millions):

	March 31, 2011				September 30, 2010
	Fixed Price Payor		Fixed Price Receiver		Fixed Price Payor		Fixed Price Receiver
Propane, crude and heating oil (barrels)		2.3		2.2		6.2		5.8

Notional amounts reflect the volume of transactions, but do not represent the amounts exchanged by the parties to the financial instruments. Accordingly, notional amounts do not reflect the Company’s monetary exposure to market or credit risks.

(d) The gain (loss) is recognized in cost of product sold.

Credit Risk

Inherent in the Company’s contractual portfolio are certain credit risks. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by suppliers, customers or financial counterparties to a contract. Inergy takes an active role in managing credit risk and has established control procedures, which are reviewed on an ongoing basis. The Company attempts to minimize credit risk exposure through credit policies and periodic monitoring procedures as well as through customer deposits, letters of credit and entering into netting agreements that allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain financial transactions, as deemed appropriate. The counterparties associated with assets from price risk management activities as of March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, were energy marketers and propane retailers, resellers and dealers.

Certain of the Company’s derivative instruments have credit limits that require the Company to post collateral. The amount of collateral required to be posted is a function of the net liability position of the derivative as well as the Company’s established credit limit with the respective counterparty. If the Company’s credit rating were to change, the counterparties could require the Company to post additional collateral. The amount of additional collateral that would be

INERGY, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

required to be posted would vary depending on the extent of change in the Company’s credit rating as well as the requirements of the individual counterparty. The aggregate fair value of all commodity derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that are in a liability position on March 31, 2011, is $6.6 million for which the Company has posted no collateral in the normal course of business. The Company has received collateral of $5.6 million in the normal course of business. All collateral amounts have been netted against the asset or liability with the respective counterparty.

Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements

FASB Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 820-10 (“820-10”) establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

• Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, listed equities and US government treasury securities.

• Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as over the counter (“OTC”) forwards, options and physical exchanges.

• Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company held certain assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These included the Company’s derivative instruments related to propane, heating oil, crude oil, natural gas liquids and interest rates as well as the portion of inventory that is hedged in a qualifying fair value hedge. The Company’s derivative instruments consist of forwards, swaps, futures, physical exchanges and options.

Certain of the Company’s derivative instruments are traded on the NYMEX. These instruments have been categorized as level 1.

The Company’s derivative instruments also include OTC contracts, which are not traded on a public exchange. The fair values of these derivative instruments are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. These instruments have been categorized as level 2.

The Company’s inventory that is the hedged item in a qualifying fair value hedge is valued based on prices quoted from observable sources and verified with broker quotes. This inventory has been categorized as level 2.

The Company’s OTC options are valued based on an internal option model. The inputs utilized in the model are based on publicly available information as well as broker quotes. These options have been categorized as level 3.

The assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value

hierarchy levels. The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2011 (in millions):

On November 24, 2009, Inergy entered into a secured credit facility (“Credit Agreement”) which provides borrowing capacity of up to $525 million in the form of a $450 million revolving general partnership credit facility (“General Partnership Facility”) and a $75 million working capital credit facility (“Working Capital Facility”). This facility will mature on November 22, 2013. Borrowings under these secured facilities are available for working capital needs, future acquisitions, capital expenditures and other general partnership purposes, including the refinancing of existing indebtedness under the former credit facility.

On February 2, 2011, Inergy amended and restated the Credit Agreement to add a $300 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”). The term loan matures on February 2, 2015, and bears interest, at Inergy’s option, subject to certain limitations, at a rate equal to the following:

• the Alternate Base Rate, which is defined as the higher of i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%; ii) JP Morgan’s prime rate; or iii) the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1%; plus a margin varying from 1.00% to 2.25%; or

• the Adjusted LIBO Rate, which is defined as the LIBO Rate plus a margin varying from 2.00% to 3.25%.

The Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants and default provisions, as well as requirements with respect to the maintenance of specified financial ratios and limitations on making investments, permitting liens and entering into other debt obligations. All borrowings under the General Partnership Facility and Working Capital Facility bear interest, at Inergy’s option, subject to certain limitations, at a rate equal to the following:

• the Alternate Base Rate, which is defined as the higher of i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%; ii) JP Morgan’s prime rate; or iii) the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1%; plus a margin varying from 1.50% to 2.75%; or

• the Adjusted LIBO Rate, which is defined as the LIBO Rate plus a margin varying from 2.50% to 3.75%.

On January 19, 2011, Inergy announced the pricing of $750 million in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes (the “Notes Offering”). The 6.875% notes mature on August 1, 2021, and were issued at par. The Notes Offering closed on February 2, 2011.

Inergy used the net proceeds from the Notes Offering and the Term Loan Facility to: (1) fund its partial redemption of its 8.75% Senior Notes due 2015 (the “2015 Notes”); (2) fund its tender offers for portions of the (a) 6.875% Senior Notes due 2014 (the “2014 Notes”), (b) 2015 Notes outstanding upon completion of the partial redemption of the 2015 Notes, and (c) 8.25% Senior Notes due 2016 (the “2016 Notes”); and (3) redeem all 2014 Notes and 2016 Notes not acquired in

the tender offers related to such notes. The remaining net proceeds were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the General Partnership Facility and the Working Capital Facility and to provide additional working capital for general partnership purposes. The charges to net income associated with the tender offer and redemption were $49.4 million.

At March 31, 2011, the balance outstanding under the Credit Agreement was $342.5 million, including $38.0 million borrowed for acquisitions and growth capital expenditures, $4.5 million borrowed for working capital purposes and $300 million borrowed under the Term Loan Facility. At September 30, 2010, there was no balance outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The interest rates of the General Partnership Facility and Working Capital Facility are based on prime rate and LIBOR plus the applicable spreads, resulting in interest rates which were between 4.01% and 6.0% at March 31, 2011. The interest rate on the Term Loan Facility is based on LIBOR plus the applicable spread, resulting in an interest rate that was 3.51% at March 31, 2011. Availability under the Credit Agreement amounted to $459.1 million and $505.3 million at March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively. Outstanding standby letters of credit under the Credit Agreement amounted to $23.4 million and $19.7 million at March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively.

During each fiscal year beginning October 1, the outstanding balance of the Working Capital Facility must be reduced to $10.0 million or less for a minimum of 30 consecutive days during the period commencing March 1 and ending September 30 of each calendar year. This requirement was met in April 2011.

During fiscal year 2011, Inergy entered into ten interest rate swaps, one of which is scheduled to mature in 2015 and the remaining nine are scheduled to mature in 2018. These swap agreements, which expire on the same date as the maturity date of the related senior unsecured notes and contain call provisions consistent with the underlying senior unsecured notes, require the counterparty to pay Inergy an amount based on the stated fixed interest rate due every six months. In exchange, Inergy is required to make semi-annual floating interest rate payments on the same dates to the counterparty based on an annual interest rate equal to the six-month LIBOR interest rate plus a spread of 6.705% on the swap maturing in 2015 and 3.25% to 3.46% on the swaps maturing in 2018 applied to the same aggregate notional amount of $250 million. These swap agreements have been accounted for as fair value hedges. Amounts to be received or paid under the agreements are accrued and recognized over the life of the agreements as an adjustment to interest expense.

In addition, during fiscal year 2011, Inergy entered into three interest rate swap agreements scheduled to mature in 2015. These swap agreements, which expire on the same date as the maturity date of the related Term Loan Facility require Inergy to pay the counterparty an amount based on fixed rates from 2.1361% to 2.43% due quarterly. In exchange, the counterparty is required to make quarterly floating interest rate payments on the same date to Inergy based on the three-month LIBOR applied to the same aggregate notional amount of $100 million. These swap agreements have been accounted for as cash flow hedges.

Prior to the completion of the Simplification Transaction, Holdings had a balance of $24.5 million on its term loan facility and no balance on its revolving bank facility. In conjunction with the Simplification Transaction, the above described debt balances were paid off in full and these facilities were terminated.

At March 31, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies

Inergy periodically enters into agreements with suppliers to purchase fixed quantities of propane, distillates, natural gas and liquids at fixed prices. At March 31, 2011, the total of these firm purchase commitments was $112.2 million, all of which will predominantly occur over the course of the next twelve months. The Company also enters into non-binding agreements with suppliers to purchase quantities of propane, distillates, natural gas and liquids at variable prices at future dates at the then prevailing market prices.

Inergy has entered into certain purchase commitments in connection with the identified growth projects primarily related to the North/South Pipeline, Finger Lakes LPG and the MARC I Hub Line midstream assets. The North/South Project consists of adding additional compression and measurement facilities to our existing Stagecoach Laterals, which when completed is expected to have firm transportation capacity of 325,000 dekatherms per day. The Finger Lakes LPG expansion project is expected to convert certain of the US Salt caverns into LPG storage with a capacity of up to 5 million barrels. The MARC I Hub Line Project is a 40 mile, 30” bi-directional pipeline that will extend between our Stagecoach South Lateral interconnect with Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company’s (“TGP”) near its compressor station 319 and Transco’s Leidy Line near its compressor station 517, and is expected to have a minimum of 550,000 dekatherms per day of firm transportation capacity. At March 31, 2011, the total of these firm purchase commitments was approximately $85.2 million and the purchases associated with these commitments will occur over the course of the next twelve months.

Inergy is periodically involved in litigation proceedings. The results of litigation proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty; however, management believes that Inergy does not have material potential liability in connection with these proceedings that would have a significant financial impact on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Following the announcement of the Merger Agreement, two unitholder class action lawsuits were filed as described in Item 3 of form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. The outcome of these lawsuits cannot be predicted with certainty; however, management believes that Inergy does not have material potential liability in connection with these proceedings that would have a significant financial impact on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Inergy utilizes third-party insurance subject to varying retention levels of self-insurance, which management considers prudent. Such self-insurance relates to losses and liabilities primarily associated with medical claims, workers’ compensation claims and general, product, vehicle and environmental liability. Losses are accrued based upon management’s estimates of the aggregate liability for claims incurred using certain assumptions followed in the insurance industry and based on past experience. The primary assumption utilized is actuarially determined loss development factors. The loss development factors are based primarily on historical data. Inergy’s self insurance reserves could be affected if future claims development differs from the historical trends. Inergy believes changes in health care costs, trends in health care claims of its employee base, accident frequency and severity and other factors could materially affect the estimate for these liabilities. Inergy continually monitors changes in employee demographics, incident and claim type and evaluates its insurance accruals and adjusts its accruals based on its evaluation of these qualitative data points. At March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, Inergy’s self-insurance reserves were $21.5 million and $19.3 million, respectively. Inergy estimates that $13.4 million of this balance will be paid subsequent to March 31, 2012. As such, $13.4 million has been classified in other-long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Note 10 – Segments

Inergy’s financial statements reflect two operating and reportable segments: propane operations and midstream operations. Inergy’s propane operations include propane sales to end users, the sale of propane-related appliances and service work for propane-related equipment, the sale of distillate products and wholesale distribution of propane and marketing and price risk management services to other users, retailers and resellers of propane. Inergy’s midstream operations include storage of natural gas and natural gas liquids for third parties, fractionation of natural gas liquids, processing of natural gas, distribution of natural gas liquids and the production and sale of salt. Results of operations for Schenck and Pennington are included in the propane segment, while results of operations for Tres Palacios are included in the midstream segment.

The identifiable assets associated with each reportable segment include accounts receivable and inventories. Goodwill, property, plant and equipment and expenditures for property, plant and equipment are also presented for each segment. The net asset/liability from price risk management, as reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, is primarily related to the propane segment.

Overview

We are a growing retail and wholesale propane supply, marketing and distribution business. We also own and operate a growing midstream business that includes four natural gas storage facilities (“Stagecoach”, “Thomas Corners”, “Steuben” and “Tres Palacios”), a liquefied petroleum gas (“LPG”) storage facility (“Finger Lakes LPG”), a natural gas liquids (“NGL”) business and a solution-mining and salt production company (“US Salt”). We further intend to pursue our growth objectives in the propane and midstream business through, among other things, future acquisitions. Our propane acquisition strategy focuses on propane companies that meet our acquisition criteria, including targeting acquisition prospects that maintain a high percentage of retail sales to residential customers, operating in attractive markets and focusing our operations under established and locally recognized trade names. Our midstream growth objectives focus both on organically expanding our existing assets and acquiring future operations that leverage our existing operating platform, produce predominantly fee-based cash flow characteristics and have future organic or commercial expansion characteristics.

Both of our operating segments, propane and midstream, are supported by business development personnel groups. These groups’ daily responsibilities include research, sourcing, financial analysis and due diligence of potential acquisition targets and organic growth opportunities. These employees work closely with the operators of both of our segments in the course of their work to ensure the appropriate growth opportunities are pursued.

26

We have grown primarily through acquisitions. Since the inception of our predecessor in November 1996 through March 31, 2011, we have acquired 89 companies, including 82 retail propane companies and 7 midstream businesses, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.9 billion, including working capital, assumed liabilities and acquisition costs.

On October 14, 2010, we completed the acquisition of Tres Palacios Gas Storage LLC (“Tres Palacios”), which owns and operates a natural gas storage facility located in Matagorda County, Texas. Tres Palacios leases the surface and subsurface rights necessary to operate and expand the storage facility under an operating lease that expires on December 31, 2037, which is subject to automatic renewal for two 20-year extension periods unless Tres Palacios elects not to extend the term of the lease. The lease payments vary based on the FERC-certificated working gas capacity of the caverns which are in service as well as an incremental payment for physical volumes of gas injected and / or withdrawn from the caverns in service. Based on our current estimates, which assumes cavern 4 will be in service during the second fiscal quarter of 2014, we anticipate that the contractual obligation as of March 31, 2011, to be the following (in millions, excluding the above mentioned incremental payments as future volumes are currently unknown):

Total	Less than 1 year		1-3 years		4-5 years		After 5 years
$ 406.7	$	—	$	22.8	$	28.2	$	355.7

On October 19, 2010, we completed the acquisition of the propane assets of Schenck Gas Services, LLC (“Schenck”), located in East Hampton, New York. On November 15, 2010, we completed the acquisition of the propane assets of Pennington Energy Corporation (“Pennington”), headquartered in Morenci, Michigan.

The purchase price allocations for these acquisitions have been prepared on a preliminary basis pending final asset valuation and asset rationalization, and changes are expected when additional information becomes available. Changes to final asset valuation of prior fiscal year acquisitions have been included in our consolidated financial statements but are not material.

The retail propane distribution business is largely seasonal due to propane’s primary use as a heating source in residential and commercial buildings. As a result, cash flows from operations are generally highest from November through April when customers pay for propane purchased during the six-month peak heating season of October through March.

Because a substantial portion of our propane is used in the weather-sensitive residential markets, the temperatures realized in our areas of operations, particularly during the six-month peak heating season of October through March, have a significant effect on our financial performance. In any given area, warmer-than-normal temperatures will tend to result in reduced propane use, while sustained colder-than-normal temperatures will tend to result in greater propane use. Therefore, we use information on normal temperatures in understanding how historical results of operations are affected by temperatures that are colder or warmer than normal and in preparing forecasts of future operations, which are based on the assumption that normal weather will prevail in each of our operating regions. “Heating degree days” are a general indicator of how weather impacts propane usage and are calculated for any given period by adding the difference between 65 degrees and the average temperature of each day in the period (if less than 65 degrees). While a substantial portion of our propane is used by our customers for heating needs, our propane operations are geographically diversified and not all of our propane sales are weather sensitive. Together, these factors may make it difficult to draw definitive conclusions as to the correlation of our gallon sales to weather calculations comparing weather in a year to normal or to the prior year.

The retail propane business is a “margin-based” business where the level of profitability is largely dependent on the difference between sales prices and product costs. Propane prices continued to be volatile during 2010 and thus far in 2011. At the main pricing hub of Mount Belvieu, Texas (“Mt. Belvieu Price”) during the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, the average Mt. Belvieu Price was $1.40 with prices ranging from a low of $1.31 per gallon to a high of $2.29 per gallon and a price of $1.37 per gallon at March 31, 2011. During the six-month period ended March 31, 2011, the average propane price was $1.33 with propane prices ranging from a low of $1.17 per gallon to a high of $2.29 per gallon. Further the average Mt. Belvieu Price in our fiscal years of 2008, 2009 and 2010 was $1.59, $0.77 and $1.12 per gallon, respectively. Our ability to pass on price increases to our customers and our hedging program has historically limited the impact that such volatility has had on our results from operations and we will continue to hedge virtually 100% of our exposure from fixed prices; however, those higher propane costs have led to higher selling prices by us and have negatively impacted our volume sales and may continue to do so in the future for reasons discussed below. While we have historically been successful in passing on any price increases to our customers, there can be no guarantees that this trend will continue in the future. In periods of increasing propane costs, we have experienced a decline in our gross profit

27

as a percentage of revenues. In addition, during those periods we have historically experienced conservation of propane gallons used by our customers in addition to lesser gallon sales as a result of customers switching to lower price propane providers as well as alternative energy sources, all of which has resulted in a decline in gross profit. These trends generally increase in periods of sustained cost increases such as we have experienced thus far in fiscal 2011. Further, improved technology in new appliances, including those using propane, has resulted in fewer gallons of propane used by our customers for their needs thus resulting in lesser gallon sales for us. In periods of decreasing costs, we have experienced an increase in our gross profit as a percentage of revenues. There is no assurance that because propane prices decline customers will use more propane and thus historical gallon sales declines we’ve attributed to customer conservation and losses will reverse. Propane is a by-product of both crude oil refining and natural gas processing and thus typically follows the same pricing pattern as these two commodities with crude oil pricing being the more influential of the two historically. The prices of crude oil and natural gas had maintained historically high costs in calendar years 2007 and 2008 before both began to fall rather dramatically in late 2008 and throughout the 2008-2009 winter season. While natural gas pricing has remained at historically low levels since this decline, crude oil costs leveled off in the spring of 2009 before beginning another increase that persisted through both winter seasons of 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 with propane prices following a similar pattern for the majority of this time. As such, our selling prices of propane have been at higher levels in order to attempt to maintain our historical gross margin per gallon with these higher prices negatively impacting our volume sales for the reasons discussed above. We do not attempt to predict the underlying commodity prices; however, we monitor these prices daily and adjust our operations and retail prices to maintain expected margins by passing on the wholesale costs to end users of our product. We believe that volatility in commodity prices will continue, and our ability to adjust to and manage our operations in response to this volatility may impact our operations and financial results.

We believe that the economic downturn that began in the second half of 2008 has caused certain of our retail propane customers to conserve and thereby purchase less propane and in some instances shop for lower prices that may be available from other suppliers or shop for alternative energy sources to replace some or all of their propane usage. This trend is expected to continue throughout the life of the economic downturn. In addition, although we believe the economic downturn has not currently had a material impact on our cash collections, it is possible that a prolonged economic downturn could have a negative impact on our future cash collections.

We believe our wholesale supply, marketing and distribution business complements our retail distribution business. Through our wholesale operations, we distribute propane and also offer price risk management services to propane retailers, resellers and other related businesses as well as energy marketers and dealers, through a variety of financial and other instruments, including:

• forward contracts involving the physical delivery of propane;

• swap agreements which requires payments to (or receipt of payments from) counterparties based on the differential between a fixed and variable price for propane; and

• options, futures contracts on the New York Mercantile Exchange and other contractual arrangements.

We engage in derivative transactions to reduce the effect of price volatility on our product costs and to help ensure the availability of propane during periods of short supply. We attempt to balance our contractual portfolio by purchasing volumes only when we have a matching purchase commitment from our wholesale customers. However, we may experience net unbalanced positions from time to time.

Our midstream operations primarily include the storage, processing, fractionation and sale of natural gas and NGLs and, to a lesser extent, the wholesale distribution of salt from solution mining operations of US Salt. The cash flows from these operations are predominantly fee-based under one to ten year contracts with substantial, creditworthy counterparties and, therefore, are generally economically stable and not significantly affected in the short term by changing commodity prices, seasonality or weather fluctuations.

We believe our midstream operations could be negatively affected in the long term by sustained downturns or sluggishness in the economy, which could affect long-term demand and market prices for natural gas and NGLs, all of which are beyond our control and could impair our ability to meet our long-term goals. However, we also believe that the contractual fee-based nature of our midstream operations may serve to mitigate this potential risk.

28

The majority of our operating cash flows in our midstream operations are generated by our natural gas storage operations. Most of our natural gas storage revenues are based on regulated market-based tariff rates, which are driven in large part by competition and demand for our storage capacity and deliverability. Demand for storage in our key midstream market in the northeastern United States is projected to continue to be strong, driven by a shortage in storage capacity and a higher than average annual growth in natural gas demand. This demand growth is primarily driven by the natural gas-fired electric generation sector and conversion from petroleum based fuels. Demand for storage in Texas is expected to strengthen driven primarily by growth in natural gas fired generation and increasing gas supplies from growing shale developments such as the Eagle Ford shale. Demand for storage can be negatively impacted during periods in which there is a narrow seasonal spread between current and future natural gas prices. The natural gas industry is currently experiencing a significant shift in the sources of supply, and this dramatic change could affect our operations.

Traditionally, supply to our markets has come from the Gulf Coast region, onshore and offshore, as well as from Canada. The national supply profile is shifting to new sources of natural gas from basins in the Rockies, Mid-Continent, Appalachia and East Texas. In addition, the natural gas supply outlook includes new LNG regasification facilities under various stages of development in multiple locations. LNG can be a new source of potential supply, but the timing and extent of incremental supply ultimately realized from LNG is yet to be determined and, at present, LNG remains a small percentage of the overall supply to the markets we serve. These supply shifts and other changes to the natural gas market may have an impact on our storage operations and our development plans and may ultimately drive the need for more domestic capacity for natural gas storage.

Currently, we have three significant capital projects related to our midstream operations: (1) Finger Lakes LPG storage expansion, (2) North/South Pipeline Project and (3) MARC I Hub Line Project. The Finger Lakes LPG storage expansion project relates to the development of certain caverns acquired in the acquisition of US Salt in August 2008. The solution mining process creates caverns that can be developed into LPG or natural gas storage after the salt has been extracted. The Finger Lakes LPG expansion project, which is located in Watkins Glenn, New York, is expected to convert certain of the caverns at US Salt into LPG storage with a capacity of up to 5 million barrels. While we anticipate completion of this project in the first half of fiscal 2012, this completion continues to be pending regulatory approval, which approval progress thus far has been slow so there can be no assurance this completion date will be met.

The North/South Pipeline Project consists of adding additional compression and measurement facilities to our existing Stagecoach Laterals and when completed is expected to have firm transportation capacity of 325,000 dekatherms per day. We received the FERC approvals required for the project in January 2011, and commenced construction in February. The North/South Project is supported by long-term contracts and is expected to be placed into service by late 2011.

The MARC I Hub Line Project is a 40 mile, 30” bi-directional pipeline located in Bradford, Sullivan, and Lycoming counties in Pennsylvania. The planned pipeline will extend between our Stagecoach South Lateral interconnect with Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company’s (“TGP”) near its compressor station 319 and Transco’s Leidy Line near its compressor station 517. The MARC I Hub Line Project is expected to have a minimum of 550,000 dekatherms per day of firm transportation capacity. We expect the MARC I Hub Line Project to be placed into service in mid-2012.

Our MARC I Hub Line Project and the North/South Project, when placed into service, will allow us to wheel volumes on a firm transportation basis through approximately 75 miles of pipe to and from TPG’s 300 Line, Transco’s Leidy Line and the Millennium Pipeline and all points in between. The two projects combined are expected to add over 45,000 horsepower of additional compression and 875,000 dekatherms per day of transportation capacity to our midstream business in the Northeast.

As we execute on our strategic objectives, capital expansion projects will continue to be an important part of our growth plan. We have committed capital and investment expenditures at March 31, 2011, of approximately $85.2 million in our midstream operations. These capital requirements, along with the refinancings of normal maturities of existing debt, will require us to continue long-term borrowings. An inability to access capital at competitive rates could adversely affect our ability to implement our strategy. Market disruptions or a downgrade in our credit ratings may increase the cost of borrowing or adversely affect our ability to access one or more sources of liquidity. During the past several years, capital expansion projects have been exposed to cost pressures associated with the availability of skilled labor and the pricing of materials. Although certain costs have begun to decrease, there will be continual focus on project management activities to address these pressures as we move forward with planned expansion opportunities. Significant cost increases could negatively affect the returns ultimately earned on current and future expansions.

29

Our midstream operations in the United States are subject to regulations at the federal and state level. Regulations applicable to the gas and NGL storage industries have a significant effect on the nature of our midstream operations and the manner in which they operate. Changes to regulations are ongoing and we cannot predict the future course of changes in the regulatory environment or the ultimate effect that any future changes will have on our midstream operations.

Volume. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we sold 129.7 million retail gallons of propane, a decline of 17.5 million gallons or 11.9% from the 147.2 million retail gallons sold during the same three-month period in 2010. Gallons sold during the three months ended March 31, 2011, decreased as compared to the same prior year period as a result of lower volumes sold at our existing locations of 22.3 million gallons, partially offset by acquisition-related volume of 4.8 million gallons. There were several factors, we believe, that contributed to the declining volumes at existing locations: (1) continued customer conservation, which we believe has resulted from the continued impact of the overall weak United States economic environment and higher propane costs, which continued to increase during the three month period ended March 31, 2011, (2) volume declines from net customer losses due primarily to higher sales prices, and (3)

30

the impact of warmer temperatures in our South and Southeast areas of operations. The average wholesale cost of propane has increased approximately 12% during the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same prior year period and the average cost for the most recent trailing twelve month period was approximately 23% higher than for the comparable prior trailing twelve month period, continuing to impact customer buying decisions and conservation trends. Gallon sales were impacted by warmer weather in our South and Southeast areas of operations as it was approximately 20% warmer during the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same prior year period. Volume was further impacted by colder weather in certain areas of our operations, notably the Northeast and Midwest, which combined were approximately 7.3% colder than last year and approximately 4.0% colder than normal. On a consolidated retail basis, the weather was approximately 1.3% warmer than last year and 2.5% colder than normal for our geographic areas.

Wholesale gallons delivered decreased 4.7 million gallons, or 3.3%, to 139.4 million gallons in the three months ended March 31, 2011, from 144.1 million gallons in the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was due primarily to lower demand and volumes sold to existing customers.

The total natural gas liquid gallons sold or processed by our West Coast NGL operations decreased 1.6 million gallons, or 2.0%, to 80.3 million gallons during the three months ended March 31, 2011, from 81.9 million gallons during the same three-month period in 2010. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreased volume processed, partially offset by increased volume of natural gas liquid products sold. Both of the aforementioned changes were primarily due to local market conditions.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, our Northeast natural gas and LPG storage facilities were 100% contracted. Our newly acquired Tres Palacios storage facility was over 90% contracted during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Revenues. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2011, were $720.5 million, an increase of $29.4 million, or 4.3%, from $691.1 million during the same three-month period in 2010.

Revenues from retail propane sales were $349.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $371.5 million during the same three-month period in 2010. This $22.1 million, or 5.9%, decline was primarily due to the decrease in gallons sold to existing customers as described above, which resulted in lower revenues of $56.4 million, partially offset by an increase in revenues of $22.5 million arising from a higher overall average selling prices of propane and an $11.8 million increase resulting from acquisition-related sales. The overall average selling price of propane increased due to an increase in the wholesale cost of propane as further discussed above.

Revenues from wholesale propane sales were $191.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $11.0 million or 6.1%, from $180.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase can be attributed to a higher average sales price, which resulted in an $18.5 million increase, partially offset by $7.5 million in lower volumes sold to existing and new customers.

Revenues from other retail sales, which primarily includes distillates, service, rental, appliance sales and transportation services, were $73.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $6.0 million, or 8.9%, from $67.3 million during the same three-month period in 2010. Revenue from other retail sales increased mostly as a result of an increase in distillate revenues of $7.3 million and acquisition-related sales of $0.1 million, partially offset by a $1.4 decline in other retail revenues. Distillate revenues from existing locations increased as a result of a higher comparable average selling price of distillates due to a higher wholesale cost, partially offset by lower volume sold.

Revenues from storage, fractionation and other midstream activities were $106.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $34.5 million or 47.7% from $72.3 million during the same three-month period in 2010. Revenues from our West Coast NGL operations increased $19.1 million primarily as a result of increased natural gas liquid products sold, along with higher average selling prices of natural gas liquids. Additionally, the acquisition of our Tres Palacios gas storage facility and the commencement of Thomas Corners gas storage contracts in April 2010 increased revenues by $12.8 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

Cost of Product Sold. Cost of product sold for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was $477.7 million, an increase of $26.3 million, or 5.8%, from $451.4 million during the same three-month period in 2010.

31

Retail propane cost of product sold was $185.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of $8.8 million, or 4.5%, when compared to $194.0 million for the same three-month period in 2010. This lower retail cost of product sold was driven by a $29.3 million decline resulting from the lower volume sales at our existing locations as discussed above, partially offset by a $14.6 million increase arising from the higher average per gallon cost of propane and a $6.7 million increase due to acquisition-related sales. Also contributing to a lower cost of product sold was a $0.8 million decrease due to changes in non-cash charges on derivative contracts associated with retail propane fixed price sales contracts.

Wholesale propane cost of product sold in the three months ended March 31, 2011, was $181.5 million, an increase of $7.3 million or 4.2%, from wholesale cost of product sold of $174.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010. This increase resulted from the higher average purchase price of propane which contributed to $14.8 million of the increase, partially offset by $7.5 million due to the lower volumes sold to existing and new customers.

Other retail cost of product sold was $50.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $40.9 million during the same three-month period in 2010. This $9.1 million, or 22.2%, increase was primarily due to a $9.5 million increase in the cost for distillates, partially offset by a $0.4 million decline in cost of other retail sales. The increase in the cost of product sold for distillates was driven by a $10.2 million increase due to a higher overall commodity cost, partially offset by a $0.7 million decline due to lower volumes sold at existing locations.

Storage, fractionation and other midstream cost of product sold was $61.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $18.7 million, or 44.2%, from $42.3 million during the same three-month period in 2010. Costs from our West Coast NGL operations were $16.1 million higher as a result of increased natural gas liquid products sold, along with higher average commodity prices of natural gas liquids. Additionally, the acquisition of our Tres Palacios gas storage facility resulted in a $2.8 million increase in cost of product sold year over year.

Our retail and wholesale cost of product sold consists primarily of tangible products sold including all propane, distillates and other natural gas liquids sold and all propane-related appliances sold. Other costs incurred in conjunction with the distribution of these products are included in operating and administrative expenses and consist primarily of wages to delivery personnel, delivery vehicle costs consisting of fuel costs, repair and maintenance and lease expense. Costs associated with delivery vehicles approximated $20.3 million and $18.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, the depreciation expense associated with the delivery vehicles and customer tanks is reported within depreciation and amortization expense and amounted to $7.3 million and $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Since we include these costs in our operating and administrative expense and depreciation and amortization expense rather than in cost of product sold, our results may not be comparable to other entities in our lines of business if they include these costs in cost of product sold.

Our storage, fractionation and other midstream cost of product sold consists primarily of commodity and transportation costs. Other costs incurred in conjunction with these services are included in operating and administrative expense and depreciation and amortization expense and consist primarily of depreciation, vehicle costs consisting of fuel costs and repair and maintenance and wages. Depreciation expense for storage, fractionation and other midstream amounted to $24.6 million and $18.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Vehicle costs and wages for personnel directly involved in providing midstream services amounted to $1.2 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Since we include these costs in our operating and administrative expense and depreciation and amortization expense rather than in cost of product sold, our results may not be comparable to other entities in our lines of business if they include these costs in cost of product sold.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was $242.8 million, an increase of $3.1 million, or 1.3%, from $239.7 million during the same three-month period in 2010.

Retail propane gross profit was $164.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $177.5 million in the same three-month period in 2010. This $13.3 million, or 7.5%, decrease was primarily driven by a gross profit decline of $27.1 million attributable to lower retail gallon sales at existing locations as discussed above, partially offset by a higher cash margin per gallon and acquisitions, which resulted in higher gross comparable gross profit of $7.9 million and $5.1 million respectively. The higher cash margin per gallon was primarily due to the average selling price increasing at a greater rate than the increased cost of propane.

32

Wholesale propane gross profit was $9.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $5.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $3.7 million or 63.8%.

Other retail gross profit was $23.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $26.4 million for the same three-month period in 2010. This $3.1 million, or 11.7%, decrease was due primarily to lower gross profit from distillate sales of $2.2 million and a $1.0 million decline in other retail gross profit.

Storage, fractionation and other midstream gross profit was $45.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $30.0 million in the same three-month period in 2010, an increase of $15.8 million, or 52.7%. This increase was primarily attributable to the gas storage acquisition of Tres Palacios, which contributed $10.0 million to the higher gross profit. The completion of our Thomas Corners gas storage facility in November 2009, and the relating storage contracts coming online in April 2010, also increased gross profit by $2.7 million. In addition, $3.0 million of this increase was attributable to increased natural gas liquid products sold, along with higher average commodity prices of natural gas liquids at our West Coast NGL operations.

Operating and Administrative Expenses. Operating and administrative expenses were $81.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $87.2 million in the same three-month period in 2010, a decrease of $5.5 million or 6.3%. This change was primarily due to lower personnel costs from existing operations, which decreased $8.4 million, and lower insurance expenses, partially offset by increased operating expenses of $3.7 million due to the operations of acquisitions.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization was $47.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $40.1 million during the same three-month period in 2010. This $7.3 million, or 18.2%, increase resulted primarily from acquisitions.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $27.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $23.0 million during the same three-month period in 2010. This $4.2 million, or 18.3%, increase was due to an increase in the average outstanding borrowings during the period due to acquisitions offset by a decrease in the average interest rate incurred on those borrowings. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we capitalized $6.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively, of interest related to certain capital improvement projects in our midstream segment as further described below in the “Liquidity and Sources of Capital” section.

Early Extinguishment of Debt. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, we exercised our equity offerings redemption option in addition to a partial tender offer and redeemed 48% of our 2015 senior notes. Further, we tendered over 90% of both our 2014 and 2016 senior notes and the remaining amounts were redeemed in full. The loss associated with the above described transactions amounted to $49.4 million and was primarily related to the tender premium and the write-off of previously capitalized charges associated with the original issuance of the respective debt.

Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was $0.2 million compared to $0.6 million in the same three-month period in 2010. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was composed of current income tax expense.

Net Income. Net income was $36.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to net income of $87.2 million for the same three-month period in 2010. The $50.6 million, or 58.0%, decrease in net income was primarily attributable to the charge for the early extinguishment of debt, increased depreciation and amortization and interest expense in the 2011 period, partially offset by higher gross profit and lower operating and administrative expenses.

EBITDA is defined as income (loss) before income taxes, plus net interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, EBITDA was $160.8 million and $150.6 million, respectively. As indicated in the table, Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA excluding the gain or loss on derivative contracts associated with retail propane fixed price sales contracts, the gain or loss on the disposal of assets, long-term incentive and equity compensation expenses and transaction costs. Transaction costs are third party professional fees and other costs that are incurred in conjunction with closing a transaction. Adjusted EBITDA was $163.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $154.6 million in the same three-month period in 2010. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, income before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted

34

accounting principles as those items are used to measure operating performance, liquidity or the ability to service debt obligations. We believe that EBITDA provides additional information for evaluating our ability to make the minimum quarterly distribution and is presented solely as a supplemental measure. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information for evaluating our financial performance without regard to our financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as we define them, may not be comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures used by other corporations or partnerships.

Volume. During the six months ended March 31, 2011, we sold 236.8 million retail gallons of propane, a decrease of 12.9 million gallons or 5.2% from the 249.7 million retail gallons sold during the same six-month period in 2010. Gallons sold during the six months ended March 31, 2011, decreased as compared to the same prior year period as a result of lower volumes sold at our existing locations of 38.3 million, partially offset by an increase arising from acquisition volume of 25.4 million gallons. The primary cause of the declining volumes at existing locations was (1) a decline in low margin agricultural propane sold due to lesser crop drying demand in the current year period compared to prior year, (2) continued customer conservation, which we believe has resulted from the continued impact of the overall weak United States economic environment and higher propane costs, which have been at record high prices the past several years and which

have increased during the six month period ended March 31, 2011, (3) volume declines from net customer losses primarily as a result of higher selling prices and (4) warmer weather in our South and Southeast areas of operations. The average wholesale cost of propane has increased approximately 14% during the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same prior year period and the average cost for the most recent trailing twelve month period was approximately 23% higher than for the comparable prior trailing twelve month period, continuing to impact customer buying decisions and conservation trends. Although certain of our areas of operations (South and Southeast) were warmer during the six month period ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same prior year period, on a consolidated retail basis, weather during the six months ended was approximately the same as the prior year period and approximately 3.3% colder than normal.

Wholesale gallons delivered decreased 28.7 million gallons, or 10.1%, to 255.5 million gallons in the six months ended March 31, 2011, from 284.2 million gallons in the six months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was due primarily to lower demand for reasons similar to those above regarding retail gallon volume sales.

The total natural gas liquid gallons sold or processed by our West Coast NGL operations decreased 18.9 million gallons, or 10.5%, to 160.4 million gallons during the six months ended March 31, 2011, from 179.3 million gallons during the same six-month period in 2010. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreased volume processed, partially offset by increased volume of natural gas liquid products sold. Both of the aforementioned changes were primarily due to local market conditions.

During the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, our Northeast natural gas and LPG storage facilities were 100% contracted. Our newly acquired Tres Palacios storage facility was over 90% contracted during the six months ended March 31, 2011.

Revenues. Revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2011, were $1,316.5 million, an increase of $123.7 million, or 10.4%, from $1,192.8 million during the same six-month period in 2010.

Revenues from retail propane sales were $627.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $592.8 million during the same six-month period in 2010. This $34.3 million, or 5.8%, increase was due to acquisition-related sales and a higher overall average selling price of propane, which resulted in higher retail propane revenues of $63.3 million and $62.0 million, respectively. The overall average selling price of propane increased due to an increase in the wholesale cost of propane. These factors were partially offset by a $91.0 million revenue decline arising from a decrease in gallons sold to existing customers as described above.

Revenues from wholesale propane sales were $340.4 million in the six months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $9.4 million or 2.8%, from $331.0 million in the six months ended March 31, 2010. This increase was driven by higher average selling prices and resulted in higher wholesale propane revenues of $42.8 million, partially offset by lower volumes sold to existing and new customers of $33.4 million.

Revenues from other retail sales, which primarily includes distillates, service, rental, appliance sales and transportation services, were $134.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $10.7 million, or 8.7%, from $123.4 million during the same six-month period in 2010. Revenue from other retail sales increased mostly as a result of an increase in distillate revenues of $10.1 million and acquisition related-sales of $3.0 million, partially offset by a $2.4 million decline in other retail revenues. Distillate revenues from existing locations increased as a result of a higher comparable average selling price of distillates due to a higher wholesale cost, partially offset by lower volume sold.

Revenues from storage, fractionation and other midstream activities were $214.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $69.3 million or 47.6% from $145.6 million during the same six-month period in 2010. Revenues from our West Coast NGL operations increased $38.5 million primarily as a result of increased natural gas liquid products sold, along with higher average selling prices of natural gas liquids. Additionally, the acquisition of our Tres Palacios gas storage facility and the commencement of Thomas Corners gas storage contracts in April 2010 increased revenues by $23.9 million and $5.9 million, respectively.

Cost of Product Sold. Cost of product sold for the six months ended March 31, 2011, was $868.8 million, an increase of $90.9 million, or 11.7%, from $777.9 million during the same six-month period in 2010.

36

Retail propane cost of product sold was $330.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $26.9 million, or 8.9%, when compared to $303.3 million for the same six-month period in 2010. This higher retail cost of product sold was driven by a $37.3 million increase arising from a higher average per gallon cost of propane and a $35.5 million increase associated with acquisition-related sales. Also contributing to a higher cost of product sold was a $0.8 million increase due to changes in non-cash charges on derivative contracts associated with retail propane fixed price sales contracts. These factors were partially offset by a $46.7 million decline in cost of product sold resulting from lower volume sales at our existing locations as discussed above.

Wholesale propane cost of product sold in the six months ended March 31, 2011, was $324.9 million, an increase of $7.7 million or 2.4%, from wholesale cost of product sold of $317.2 million in the six months ended March 31, 2010. This increase resulted from the higher average purchase price of propane which contributed to $39.7 million of the increase, partially offset by $32.0 million due to the lower volumes sold to existing and new customers.

Other retail cost of product sold was $87.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $74.3 million during the same six-month period in 2010. This $12.8 million, or 17.2%, increase was primarily due to a $12.2 million increase in the cost for distillates and a $1.0 million increase in the cost of product sold associated with acquisition-related sales. The increase in the cost of product sold for distillates was driven by a $14.7 million increase due to a higher overall commodity cost, partially offset by a $2.5 million decline due to lower volumes sold at existing locations.

Storage, fractionation and other midstream cost of product sold was $126.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $43.5 million, or 52.3%, from $83.1 million during the same six-month period in 2010. Costs from our West Coast NGL operations were $38.5 million higher as a result of increased natural gas liquid products sold, along with higher average commodity prices of natural gas liquids. Additionally, the acquisition of our Tres Palacios gas storage facility resulted in a $4.8 million increase in cost of product sold year over year.

Our retail and wholesale cost of product sold consists primarily of tangible products sold including all propane, distillates and other natural gas liquids sold and all propane-related appliances sold. Other costs incurred in conjunction with the distribution of these products are included in operating and administrative expenses and consist primarily of wages to delivery personnel, delivery vehicle costs consisting of fuel costs, repair and maintenance and lease expense. Costs associated with delivery vehicles approximated $39.2 million and $35.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, the depreciation expense associated with the delivery vehicles and customer tanks is reported within depreciation and amortization expense and amounted to $14.8 million and $16.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Since we include these costs in our operating and administrative expense and depreciation and amortization expense rather than in cost of product sold, our results may not be comparable to other entities in our lines of business if they include these costs in cost of product sold.

Our storage, fractionation and other midstream cost of product sold consists primarily of commodity and transportation costs. Other costs incurred in conjunction with these services are included in operating and administrative expense and depreciation and amortization expense and consist primarily of depreciation, vehicle costs consisting of fuel costs and repair and maintenance and wages. Depreciation expense for storage, fractionation and other midstream amounted to $49.2 million and $36.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Vehicle costs and wages for personnel directly involved in providing midstream services amounted to $2.3 million and $1.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Since we include these costs in our operating and administrative expense and depreciation and amortization expense rather than in cost of product sold, our results may not be comparable to other entities in our lines of business if they include these costs in cost of product sold.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the six months ended March 31, 2011, was $447.7 million, an increase of $32.8 million, or 7.9%, from $414.9 million during the same six-month period in 2010.

Retail propane gross profit was $296.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $289.5 million in the same six-month period in 2010. This $7.4 million, or 2.6%, increase was primarily driven by acquisitions and a higher cash margin per gallon, which contributed increases of $27.8 million and $24.7 million respectively. The higher cash margin per gallon was primarily due to the average selling price increasing at a greater rate than the increased cost of propane including the impact of lesser agricultural gallons sold, which generally have a lower margin. These factors were partially offset by a gross profit decline of $44.3 million attributable to lower retail gallon sales at existing locations as discussed above and a $0.8 million decline related to changes in non-cash charges on derivative contracts associated with retail propane fixed price sales contracts as discussed above.

37

Wholesale propane gross profit was $15.5 million in the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $13.8 million in the six months ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $1.7 million or 12.3%.

Other retail gross profit was $47.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $49.1 million for the same six-month period in 2010. This $2.1 million, or 4.3%, decrease was primarily due to a $4.1 million decline in gross profit from distillates and other retail gross profit, partially offset by a $2.0 million increase in gross profit from acquisitions.

Storage, fractionation and other midstream gross profit was $88.3 million in the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $62.5 million in the same six-month period in 2010, an increase of $25.8 million, or 41.3%. This increase was primarily attributable to the gas storage acquisition of Tres Palacios, which contributed $19.1 million to the higher gross profit. The completion of our Thomas Corners gas storage facility in November 2009, and the relating storage contracts coming online in April 2010, also increased gross profit by $5.6 million.

Operating and Administrative Expenses. Operating and administrative expenses were $166.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $155.9 million in the same six-month period in 2010, an increase of $10.3 million or 6.6%. Included in the 2011 operating expenses are $8.9 million of transaction costs, primarily financing commitment expenses for the Tres Palacios acquisition, directly related to closing acquisitions during the period. There were no similar expenses in the prior year. In addition, operating expenses increased $16.3 million due to the operations of acquisitions, partially offset by lower personnel costs from existing operations, which decreased $11.6 million, and lower insurance and other operating expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization was $93.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $77.2 million during the same six-month period in 2010. This $16.6 million, or 21.5%, increase resulted primarily from acquisitions.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $60.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $44.3 million during the same six-month period in 2010. This $16.0 million, or 36.1%, increase was due primarily to an increase in the average outstanding borrowings during the period due to acquisitions offset by a decrease in the average interest rate incurred on those borrowings. Additionally, during the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we capitalized $8.1 million and $3.4 million, respectively, of interest related to certain capital improvement projects in our midstream segment as further described below in the “Liquidity and Sources of Capital” section.

Early Extinguishment of Debt. During the six-month period ended March 31, 2011, we exercised our equity offerings redemption option in addition to a partial tender offer and redeemed 48% of our 2015 senior notes. Further, we tendered over 90% of both our 2014 and 2016 senior notes and the remaining amounts were redeemed in full. The loss associated with the above described transactions amounted to $49.4 million and was primarily related to the tender premium and the write-off of previously capitalized charges associated with the original issuance of the respective debt.

Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended March 31, 2011, was $0.4 million compared to $0.9 million in the same six-month period in 2010. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended March 31, 2011, was composed of current income tax expense.

Net Income. Net income was $75.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to net income of $133.0 million for the same six-month period in 2010. The $57.9 million, or 43.5%, decrease in net income was primarily attributable to the charge for the early extinguishment of debt, increased depreciation and amortization, operating and administrative expenses and interest expense in the 2011 period, partially offset by higher gross profit.

EBITDA is defined as income (loss) before income taxes, plus net interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense. For the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, EBITDA was $279.0 million and $254.6 million, respectively. As indicated in the table, Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA excluding the gain or loss on derivative contracts associated with retail propane fixed price sales contracts, the gain or loss on the disposal of assets, long-term incentive and equity compensation expenses and transaction costs. Transaction costs are third party professional fees and other costs that are incurred in conjunction with closing a transaction. Adjusted EBITDA was $293.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $260.7 million in the same six-month period in 2010. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, income before income taxes, cash flows from operating

39

activities, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as those items are used to measure operating performance, liquidity or the ability to service debt obligations. We believe that EBITDA provides additional information for evaluating our ability to make the minimum quarterly distribution and is presented solely as a supplemental measure. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information for evaluating our financial performance without regard to our financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as we define them, may not be comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures used by other corporations or partnerships.

Seasonality

The retail market for propane is seasonal because it is used primarily for heating in residential and commercial buildings. Approximately three-quarters of our retail propane volume is sold during the peak heating season from October through March. Consequently, sales and operating profits are generated mostly in the first and fourth calendar quarters of each year.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

Cash Flows and Contractual Obligations

Net operating cash inflows were $121.8 million and $140.0 million for the six-month periods ending March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The $18.2 million decrease in operating cash flows was primarily attributable to changes in working capital balances.

Net investing cash outflows were $216.3 million and $316.2 million for the six-month periods ending March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Net cash outflows were primarily impacted by a $588.0 million investment in escrow account that was utilized to fund the Tres Palacios acquisition and a $14.5 million increase in proceeds from sale of assets, partially offset by a $495.2 million increase in cash outlays related to acquisitions and a $7.4 million increase in capital expenditures.

Net financing cash inflows (outflows) were $(31.4) million and $183.8 million for the six-month periods ending March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The net change was primarily impacted by a $199.8 million decrease in proceeds from the issuance of common units, a $33.8 million increase in the total distributions paid and a $6.8 million increase in payments for deferred financing costs, partially offset by a $28.9 million increase in proceeds related to the issuance of long-term debt, net of payments on long-term debt.

We believe that anticipated cash from operations and borrowing capacity under our Credit Agreement described below will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. If our plans or assumptions change or are inaccurate, or we make acquisitions, we may need to raise additional capital. While global financial markets and economic conditions have been disrupted and volatile in the past, the conditions have improved more recently. However, we give no assurance that we can raise additional capital to meet these needs. As of March 31, 2011, we have firm purchase commitments totaling approximately $85.2 million related to certain of these projects. Additional commitments or expenditures, if any, we may make toward any one or more of these projects are at the discretion of the Partnership. Any discontinuation of the construction of these projects will likely result in less future cash flow and earnings than we have previously indicated.

Description of Credit Facility

On November 24, 2009, we entered into a secured credit facility (“Credit Agreement”) which provides borrowing capacity of up to $525 million in the form of a $450 million revolving general partnership credit facility (“General Partnership Facility”) and a $75 million working capital credit facility (“Working Capital Facility”). This facility will mature on November 22, 2013.

40

On February 2, 2011, we amended and restated the Credit Agreement to add a $300 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”). The term loan matures on February 2, 2015, and bears interest, at our option, subject to certain limitations, at a rate equal to the following:

• the Alternate Base Rate, which is defined as the higher of i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%; ii) JP Morgan’s prime rate; or iii) the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1%; plus a margin varying from 1.00% to 2.25%; or

• the Adjusted LIBO Rate, which is defined as the LIBO Rate plus a margin varying from 2.00% to 3.25%.

The Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants and default provisions, as well as requirements with respect to the maintenance of specified financial ratios and limitations on making investments, permitting liens and entering into other debt obligations. All borrowings under the General Partnership Facility and Working Capital Facility bear interest, at our option, subject to certain limitations, at a rate equal to the following:

• the Alternate Base Rate, which is defined as the higher of i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%; ii) JP Morgan’s prime rate; or iii) the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1%; plus a margin varying from 1.50% to 2.75%; or

• the Adjusted LIBO Rate, which is defined as the LIBO Rate plus a margin varying from 2.50% to 3.75%.

On January 19, 2011, we announced the pricing of $750 million in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes (the “Notes Offering”). The 6.875% notes mature on August 1, 2021, and were issued at par. The Notes Offering closed on February 2, 2011.

We used the net proceeds from the Notes Offering and the Term Loan Facility to: (1) fund the partial redemption of our 8.75% Senior Notes due 2015 (the “2015 Notes”); (2) fund the tender offers for portions of the (a) 6.875% Senior Notes due 2014 (the “2014 Notes”), (b) 2015 Notes outstanding upon completion of the partial redemption of the 2015 Notes, and (c) 8.25% Senior Notes due 2016 (the “2016 Notes”); and (3) redeem all 2014 Notes and 2016 Notes not acquired in the tender offers related to such notes. The remaining net proceeds were used to repay outstanding borrowings under our General Partnership Facility and the Working Capital Facility and to provide additional working capital for general partnership purposes. The charges to net income associated with the tender offer and redemption were $49.4 million.

At March 31, 2011, the balance outstanding under the Credit Agreement was $342.5 million, including $38.0 million borrowed for acquisitions and growth capital expenditures, $4.5 million borrowed for working capital purposes and $300 million borrowed under the Term Loan Facility. At September 30, 2010, there was no balance outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The interest rates of the General Partnership Facility and Working Capital Facility are based on prime rate and LIBOR plus the applicable spreads, resulting in interest rates which were between 4.01% and 6.0% at March 31, 2011. The interest rate on the Term Loan Facility is based on LIBOR plus the applicable spread, resulting in an interest rate that was 3.51% at March 31, 2011.

During each fiscal year beginning October 1, the outstanding balance of the Working Capital Facility must be reduced to $10.0 million or less for a minimum of 30 consecutive days during the period commencing March 1 and ending September 30 of each calendar year. This requirement was met in April 2011.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

We have a term loan debt and a revolving line of credit subject to the risk of loss associated with movements in interest rates. At March 31, 2011, we had floating rate obligations totaling $567.5 million borrowed under our Credit Agreement, Term Loan Facility and our interest rate swaps, which convert a portion of our fixed rate senior unsecured notes due 2018 and 2015 to floating, with a notional amount of $225 million. Floating rate obligations expose us to the risk of increased interest expense in the event of increases in short-term interest rates.

If the floating rate were to fluctuate by 100 basis points from March 2011 levels, our interest expense would change by a total of approximately $5.7 million per year.

41

Commodity Price, Market and Credit Risk

Inherent in our contractual portfolio are certain business risks, including market risk and credit risk. Market risk is the risk that the value of the portfolio will change, either favorably or unfavorably, in response to changing market conditions. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by suppliers, customers or financial counterparties to a contract. We take an active role in managing and controlling market and credit risk and have established control procedures, which are reviewed on an ongoing basis. We monitor market risk through a variety of techniques, including daily reporting of the portfolio’s position to senior management. We attempt to minimize credit risk exposure through credit policies and periodic monitoring procedures as well as through customer deposits, letters of credit and entering into netting agreements that allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain financial transactions, as deemed appropriate. The counterparties associated with assets from price risk management activities as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, were propane retailers, resellers, energy marketers and dealers.

The propane industry is a “margin-based” business in which gross profits depend on the excess of sales prices over supply costs. As a result, our profitability will be sensitive to changes in wholesale prices of propane caused by changes in supply or other market conditions. When there are sudden and sharp increases in the wholesale cost of propane, we may not be able to pass on these increases to our customers through retail or wholesale prices. Propane is a commodity and the price we pay for it can fluctuate significantly in response to supply or other market conditions. We have no control over supply or market conditions. In addition, the timing of cost pass-throughs can significantly affect margins. Sudden and extended wholesale price increases could reduce our gross profits and could, if continued over an extended period of time, reduce demand by encouraging our retail customers to conserve or convert to alternative energy sources.

We engage in hedging and risk management transactions, including various types of forward contracts, options, swaps and futures contracts, to reduce the effect of price volatility on our product costs, protect the value of our inventory positions and to help ensure the availability of propane during periods of short supply. We attempt to balance our contractual portfolio by purchasing volumes only when we have a matching purchase commitment from our wholesale customers. However, we may experience net unbalanced positions from time to time which we believe to be immaterial in amount. In addition to our ongoing policy to maintain a balanced position, for accounting purposes we are required, on an ongoing basis, to track and report the market value of our derivative portfolio.

Fair Value

The fair value of the derivatives and inventory exchange contracts related to price risk management activities as of March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, was assets of $10.2 million and $22.5 million, respectively, and liabilities of $11.3 million and $24.3 million, respectively.

We use observable market values for determining the fair value of our trading instruments. In cases where actively quoted prices are not available, other external sources are used which incorporate information about commodity prices in actively quoted markets, quoted prices in less active markets and other market fundamental analysis. Our risk management department regularly compares valuations to independent sources and models on a quarterly basis.

Sensitivity Analysis

A theoretical change of 10% in the underlying commodity value would result in a negligible change in the market value of the contracts as there were 0.4 million gallons of net unbalanced positions at March 31, 2011.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain controls and procedures designed to provide a reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC, and that information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the

42

effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such terms are defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2011, at the reasonable assurance level. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the period ended March 31, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In fiscal 2011, we completed the acquisitions of Tres Palacios, Schenck and Pennington. See Note 4 “Business Acquisitions” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 for discussion of the acquisitions and related financial data.

We are currently in the process of evaluating the internal controls and procedures of our current acquisitions. Further, we are in the process of integrating their operations. Management will continue to evaluate our internal control over financial reporting as we execute integration activities; however, integration activities could materially affect our internal control over financial reporting in future periods.
