Forward-Looking Statements

Certain matters discussed in this report, excluding historical information, as well as some statements by Energy Transfer Partners, L.P., (Energy Transfer Partners or the Partnership) in periodic press releases and some oral statements of
Energy Transfer Partners officials during presentations about the Partnership, include certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Statements using words such as anticipate, believe, intend, project, plan, continue, estimate, forecast, may,
will, or similar expressions help identify forward-looking statements. Although the Partnership believes such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions and current expectations and projections about future events, no
assurance can be given that every objective will be reached.

Actual results may differ materially from any results projected, forecasted, estimated or
expressed in forward-looking statements since many of the factors that determine these results are subject to uncertainties and risks, difficult to predict, and beyond managements control. For additional discussion of risks, uncertainties and
assumptions, see the Partnerships Annual Report on Form 10-K as amended on 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2005 and December 12, 2005,
respectively.

ENERGY TRANSFER PARTNERS, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per unit data)

(unaudited)

1. OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION:

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2005, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim financial statements and notes thereto of Energy
Transfer Partners, L.P., and subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim consolidated financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements. However, the
Partnership believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year due to the seasonal nature
of the Partnerships operations, maintenance activities and the impact of forward natural gas prices and differentials on certain derivative financial instruments that are accounted for using mark-to-market accounting.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring) have been made that are necessary to fairly state the consolidated financial
position of Energy Transfer Partners and subsidiaries as of February 28, 2006, and the results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended February 28, 2006 and 2005, and cash flows for the six-month periods ended
February 28, 2006 and 2005. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Energy Transfer Partners presented in the Partnerships
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2005, as amended on Form 10-K/A as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2005, and December 12, 2005, respectively.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the classification presentation in the 2006 condensed financial statements. These reclassifications
have no impact on net income or total partners capital. Prior periods have also been adjusted to reflect the sale of certain assets in the midstream segment as discontinued operations (see Note 2).

Business Operations

In order to simplify the obligations of Energy
Transfer Partners under the laws of several jurisdictions in which it conducts business, the Partnerships activities are conducted through two wholly-owned subsidiary operating partnerships, La Grange Acquisition, L.P. which conducts business
under the assumed name of Energy Transfer Company (ETC OLP), a Texas limited partnership which is engaged in midstream and transportation and storage natural gas operations, and Heritage Operating L.P. (HOLP), a Delaware
limited partnership, which is engaged in retail and wholesale propane operations (collectively the Operating Partnerships). The Partnership, the Operating Partnerships, and their other subsidiaries are collectively referred to in this
report as Energy Transfer Partners or the Partnership.

2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

In April 2005, the Partnership sold its assets in Oklahoma, referred to as the Elk City System, for $191,606 in cash and recorded a gain on the sale during fiscal year
2005 of $142,469, net of income taxes. Accordingly, the Elk City System was accounted for as discontinued operations in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-lived Assets, for all periods presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, as follows:

3. USE OF ESTIMATES:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The natural gas industry conducts its business by processing
actual transactions at the end of the month following the month of delivery. Consequently, the most current months financial results for the midstream and transportation and storage segments are estimated using volume estimates and market
prices. Any difference between estimated results and actual results are recognized in the following months financial statements. Management believes that the operating results estimated for the three and six months ended February 28, 2006
represent the actual results in all material respects.

Some of the other more significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to,
allowances for doubtful accounts, the fair value of derivative instruments, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, purchase accounting allocations and subsequent realizability of intangible assets and deferred taxes. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

4. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE:

ETC OLPs midstream and transportation and storage operations deal with counterparties that are typically either investment grade or are otherwise secured with a letter of credit or other forms of security (corporate guaranty or
prepayment). Management reviews midstream and transportation and storage accounts receivable balances each week. Credit limits are assigned and monitored for all counterparties of the midstream and transportation and storage operations. Management
believes that the occurrence of bad debts in the midstream and transportation and storage segments is not significant; therefore, an allowance for doubtful accounts for the midstream and transportation and storage segments was not deemed necessary
at February 28, 2006 or August 31, 2005. Bad debt expense related to these receivables is recognized at the time an account is deemed uncollectible. There was no bad debt expense recognized for the three or six months ended
February 28, 2006 and 2005 in the midstream and transportation and storage segments.

ETC OLP enters into netting arrangements with counterparties to
mitigate credit risk. Transactions are confirmed with the counterparty, and the net amount is settled when due. Amounts outstanding under these netting arrangements are presented on a net basis in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

HOLP grants credit to its customers for the purchase of propane and propane-related products. Included in accounts receivable are trade accounts
receivable arising from HOLPs retail and wholesale propane operations. Accounts receivable for retail and wholesale propane operations are recorded as amounts billed to customers less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for
doubtful accounts for the retail and wholesale propane segments is based on managements assessment of the realizability of customer accounts. Management considers the overall creditworthiness of the Partnerships customers, historical
trends in collectability, and any specific disputes in determining the amount of allowance for doubtful accounts. Bad debt expense related to these receivables is recognized at the time an account is deemed uncollectible. For the three months ended
February 28, 2006 and 2005, bad debt expense, net of recoveries, was $362 and $244, respectively. Bad debt expense, net of recoveries, of $549 and $430 was recognized for the six months ended February 28, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Accounts receivable consisted of the following:

5. INVENTORIES:

ETC OLPs inventories consist principally of natural gas held in storage which is valued at the lower of cost or market utilizing the weighted average cost method. Propane inventories are also valued at the lower of cost or market. The
cost of propane inventories is determined using the weighted-average cost of propane delivered to the customer service locations, and includes storage fees and inbound freight costs, while the cost of appliances, parts, and fittings is determined by
the first-in, first-out method. Inventories consisted of the following:

Other customer deposits as of August 31, 2005 have either been returned or applied against amounts owed to the Partnership during the six months ended February 28, 2006.

7. INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNER UNIT:

Basic net income per limited partner unit is computed in accordance with
EITF Issue No. 03-6 (EITF 03-6)Participating Securities and the Two-Class method under FASB Statement No. 128, by dividing limited partners interest in net income by the weighted average number of Common and Class
F Units outstanding. In periods when the Partnerships aggregate net income exceeds the aggregate distributions, EITF 03-6 requires the Partnership to present earnings per unit as if all of the earnings for the periods were distributed (see
table below). Diluted net income per limited partner unit is computed by dividing limited partners interest in net income, after considering the General Partners interest, by the weighted average number of Common and Class F Units
outstanding and the effect of non-vested restricted units (Unit Grants) granted under the 2004 Unit Plan and predecessor plan computed using the treasury stock method. A reconciliation of net income and weighted average units used in
computing basic and diluted earnings per unit is as follows:

|(a) | Basic and diluted net income per limited partner unit for the three and six months ended February 28, 2005, have been restated to reflect the application of EITF 03-6. The
Partnerships net income for partners capital and income statement presentation purposes is allocated to the General Partner and Limited Partners in accordance with their respective partnership percentages, after giving effect to any
priority income allocations for incentive distributions, if any, to the Partnerships General Partner, the holder of the incentive distribution rights pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, which are declared and paid following the close of
each quarter. However, for purposes of computing basic and diluted net income per limited partner unit, in periods when the Partnerships aggregate net income exceeds the aggregate distributions for such periods, an increased amount of net
income is allocated to the General Partner for the additional pro forma priority income attributable to the application of EITF 03-6. The General Partner is entitled to receive incentive distributions if the amount the Partnership distributes with
respect to any quarter exceeds levels specified in the Partnership Agreement.

9. UNIT BASED COMPENSATION PLANS:

On September 1, 2005, the Partnership adopted the modified prospective provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) Accounting for Stock-based Compensation
(SFAS 123R). As provided in SFAS 123R, the Partnership values the unit awards based on the per unit grant-date market value reduced by the present value of the distributions expected to be paid on the units during the requisite service
period. The present value is computed based on the risk-free interest rate, the expected life of the unit grants and the expected unit distributions. The Partnership assumed a weighted average risk-free interest rate of 4.32% for the three and six
months ended February 28, 2006, in estimating the present value of the future cash flows of the distributions during the vesting period on the measurement date of each grant. The weighted average fair value at the grant date of the awards
outstanding for the three and six months ended February 28, 2006 and 2005 was $30.61. Annual average cash distributions at the grant date were estimated to be $2.16 for the three and six months ended February 28, 2006. The expected life of
each grant is assumed to be the minimum vesting period under certain

performance criteria of each grant. The Partnership recognized compensation expense of $5,380 and $5,827, respectively,
for the three and six months ended February 28, 2006 related to unit based compensation plans. For the three and six months ended February 28, 2005, the Partnership recognized compensation expense of $402 and $804, respectively. Adoption
of SFAS 123R did not have a material effect on the Partnerships income from continuing operations.

2004 Unit Plan

Employee Grants.The Compensation Committee, at its discretion, may from time to time grant awards to any employee, upon such terms and conditions as it may
determine appropriate and in accordance with specific general guidelines as defined by the Plan. On December 20, 2005, the Compensation Committee modified the terms of the grants awarded during fiscal year 2005, by issuing 88,183 Common Units
on the grants which vested September 1, 2005, forfeiting 800 grants and granting 168,200 additional awards. Management has determined that the change due to the modification of the grants awarded in fiscal 2005, in accordance with SFAS 123R,
was immaterial. As of February 28, 2006, 356,350 awards to employees were outstanding under the 2004 Unit Plan and 2,867 were forfeited. These awards vest at a rate of one-third per year for three years based upon the achievement of certain
performance criteria. The issuance of Common Units pursuant to the 2004 Unit Plan is intended to serve as a means of incentive compensation, therefore, no consideration will be payable by the plan participants upon vesting and issuance of the Common
Units.

Director Grants. Each director who is not also (i) a shareholder or a direct or indirect employee of any parent, or (ii) a direct
or indirect employee of Energy Transfer Partners, L.L.C., the Partnership, or a subsidiary (Director Participant), who is elected or appointed to the Board for the first time shall automatically receive, on the date of his or her
election or appointment, an award of up to 2,000 Units (the Initial Directors Grant). Each Director Participant who is in office on September 1st shall automatically receive an award of Units equal to $15 divided by the fair
market value of Common Units on such date (Annual Directors Grant). On September 1, 2005, 3,000 Directors Grants vested, and Common Units were issued under the predecessor plan. On December 20, 2005, an additional 3,014
units were vested, and 730 units were forfeited under the 2004 Unit Plan and predecessor plan. As of February 28, 2006, Initial Directors Grants and annual Directors Grants totaling 23,210 units were outstanding under the 2004 Unit
Plan and the predecessor plan.

Long-Term Incentive Grants.The Compensation Committee may, from time to time, grant awards under the Plan to any
executive officer or any employee it may designate as a participant in accordance with general guidelines under the Plan. As of February 28, 2006, there have been no Long-Term Incentive Grants made under the Plan.

10. ACQUISITIONS:

In January 2005, the Partnership acquired
the controlling interests in HPL Consolidation LP (HPL) from American Electric Power Corporation (AEP) for approximately $825,000 subject to working capital adjustments. In addition the Partnership acquired working inventory
of natural gas stored in the Bammel storage facilities and financed the purchase through a short-term borrowing from an affiliate, which was repaid in full in April 2005. Under the terms of the transaction, the Partnership acquired all but a 2%
limited partner interest in HPL. On November 10, 2005, the Partnership acquired the remaining 2% limited partnership interests in HPL for $16,560 in cash. The purchase price was allocated to property, plant and equipment and the minority
interest liability associated with the 2% limited partner interests was eliminated. As a result, HPL become a wholly-owned subsidiary of ETC OLP. The Partnership also reached a settlement agreement with AEP in November 2005 related to certain
inventory and working capital matters associated with the acquisition. The terms of the agreement were not material in relation to the Partnerships financial position or results of operations.

The Partnership obtained the final independent valuation and has made the final allocations of the purchase price to the acquired assets during the three months ended
February 28, 2006, and the final adjustments resulted in a reduction of $45,820 to the amount allocated to pad gas and an increase of an equal amount to acquired depreciable assets. The final adjustment did not have a material impact on the
Partnerships financial position or results of operation.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the three and six months
ended February 28, 2005 are presented as if the acquisition of the 98% controlling interests in HPL had occurred at the beginning of the period presented. The proforma consolidated net income and earnings per unit include the income from
discontinued operations as presented on the condensed consolidated income statement for the three and six months ended February 28, 2005. The results do not necessarily reflect the results that would have been obtained if the acquisition had
actually occurred on the dates indicated or results that may be expected in the future.

11. WORKING CAPITAL FACILITY AND LONG-TERM DEBT:

On November 23, 2005, the Partnership filed a registered exchange offer to exchange newly issued 5.65% Senior Notes due 2012 (the 2012 Notes) which will
be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the New Notes), for a like amount of outstanding 5.65% Senior Notes due 2012, which have not been registered under the Securities Act (the Old Notes). The sole purpose of the
exchange offer is to fulfill the obligations of the Partnership under the registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the sale by the Partnership of the Old Notes on July 29, 2005. The 2012 Notes issued pursuant to the
exchange offer will have substantially identical terms to the Old Notes. The 2012 Notes initially will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by ETC OLP and all of the direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of ETC OLP that guarantee the
Partnerships obligations under its revolving credit facility. On February 23, 2006 the Partnership commenced the exchange offer which closed on March 31, 2006. All $400,000 of the unregistered 2012 Notes were tendered pursuant to the
exchange offer and will be replaced with a like amount of registered notes.

On December 13, 2005 the Partnership entered into the ETP Revolving
Credit Facility, a $900,000 five-year revolving credit facility available through December 10, 2010 which replaced its previous revolving credit facility. Amounts borrowed under the ETP Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate based on
either a Eurodollar rate or a prime rate. The ETP Revolving Credit Facility also offers a Swingline loan option with a maximum borrowing of $50,000 at a daily rate based on LIBOR. The maximum commitment fee payable on the unused portion of the
facility is 0.25%. The weighted average interest rate was 5.320% for the amount outstanding as of February 28, 2006 ($100,000). There was no amount outstanding under the Swingline option. The Partnership also had outstanding letters of credit
of $9,935 under the ETP Revolving Credit Facility. Total amount available under the Credit Agreement as of February 28, 2006 was $790,065. The ETP Revolving Credit Facility, which is expandable to $1,000,000, is fully and unconditionally
guaranteed by ETC OLP and all of the direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of ETC OLP that guarantee the Partnerships obligations. The ETP Revolving Credit Facility is unsecured and has equal rights to holders of the Partnerships
other current and future unsecured debt.

A $75,000 Senior Revolving Working Capital Facility is available through December 31, 2006. Amounts borrowed
under this Working Capital Facility bear interest at a rate based on either a Eurodollar rate or a prime rate. The weighted average interest rate was 6.270% for the amount outstanding at February 28, 2006. The maximum commitment fee payable on
the unused portion of the facility is 0.50%. HOLP must reduce the principal amount of working capital borrowings to $10,000 for a period of not less than 30 consecutive days at least one time during each fiscal year. All receivables, contracts,
equipment, inventory, general intangibles, cash concentration accounts of HOLP, and the capital stock of HOLPs subsidiaries secure the Senior Revolving Working Capital Facility. As of February 28, 2006, the Senior Revolving Working
Capital Facility had a balance outstanding of $21,198, all short-term. There were outstanding Letters of Credit for the Senior Revolving Working Capital Facility of $6,052 at February 28, 2006. Effective September 1, 2005, HOLP entered
into the Second Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The amendment states that in no event shall the Letter of Credit Exposure exceed $15,000 at any time. All of the remaining terms, provisions and conditions of the existing
Credit Agreement continue in full force and effect as within the March 31, 2004 Third Amended and Restated Credit Amendment. Letter of Credit exposure plus the Working Capital Loan cannot exceed the $75,000 maximum Working Capital Facility.

Prior to February 28, 2006, HOLP also maintained a $75,000 Senior Revolving Acquisition Facility for acquisitions of
propane-related businesses. Amounts borrowed under the Acquisition Credit Facility bore interest at a rate based on either a Eurodollar rate or a prime rate. All receivables, contracts, equipment, inventory, general intangibles, cash concentration
accounts of HOLP and the capital stock of HOLPs subsidiaries secured the Senior Revolving Acquisition Facility. As of February 28, 2006, HOLP paid in full the outstanding indebtedness under this facility and cancelled this facility.

12. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES, AND ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES:

Commitments

The Partnership has forward commodity contracts which will be settled by physical delivery. Short-term
contracts, which expire in less than one year, require delivery of up to 600,687 MMBtu/d. Long-term contracts require delivery of up to 313,387 MMBtu/d and extend through July 2018.

The Partnership, in the normal course of business, purchases, processes, and sells natural gas pursuant to long-term contracts and enters into long-term transportation and storage agreements. Such contracts contain
terms that are customary in the industry. The Partnership believes that such terms are commercially reasonable and will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnerships financial position or results of operations. The Partnership has
also entered into several propane purchase and supply commitments which are typically one-year agreements with varying terms as to quantities, prices, and expiration dates. The Partnership also has a long-term purchase contract for 100 million
gallons of propane per year that contains a two-year cancellation provision.

Litigation

The Operating Partnerships may, from time to time, be involved in litigation and claims arising out of their respective operations in the normal course of business.
Management is not aware of any material legal or governmental proceedings against ETC OLP or contemplated to be brought against ETC OLP, under the various environmental protection statutes to which it is subject. Propane is a flammable, combustible
gas. Serious personal injury and significant property damage can arise in connection with its storage, transportation or use. In the ordinary course of business, HOLP is sometimes threatened with or named as a defendant in various lawsuits seeking
actual and punitive damages for product liability, personal injury and property damage. The Partnership maintains liability insurance with insurers in amounts and with coverages and deductibles management believes are reasonable and prudent, and
which are generally accepted in the industry. However, there can be no assurance that the levels of insurance protection currently in effect will continue to be available at reasonable prices or that such levels will remain adequate to protect the
Partnership and its Operating Partnerships from material expenses related to product liability, personal injury or property damage in the future. Although any litigation is inherently uncertain, based on past experience, the information currently
available and the availability of insurance coverage, the Partnership does not believe that pending or threatened litigation matters will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

At the time of the HPL acquisition, the HPL Entities, their parent companies and AEP, were engaged in ongoing litigation with Bank of America (B of A) that
related to AEPs acquisition of HPL in the Enron bankruptcy and B of As financing of cushion gas stored in the Bammel Storage facility (Cushion Gas). This litigation is referred to as the Cushion Gas Litigation.
Under the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement and the related Cushion Gas Litigation Agreement, AEP and its subsidiaries that were the sellers of the HPL Entities retained control of the Cushion Gas Litigation and have agreed to indemnify ETC
OLP and the HPL Entities for any damages arising from the Cushion Gas Litigation and the loss of use of the Cushion Gas, up to a maximum of the amount paid by ETC OLP for the HPL Entities and the working gas inventory. The Cushion Gas Litigation
Agreement terminates upon final resolution of the Cushion Gas Litigation. In addition, under the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, AEP retained control of additional matters relating to ongoing litigation and environmental remediation and
agreed to bear the costs of or indemnify ETC OLP and the HPL Entities for the costs related to such matters.

The Partnership or its subsidiaries is a
party to various legal proceedings and/or regulatory proceedings incidental to its business. Certain claims, suits and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business have been filed or are pending against the Partnership. In the opinion of
management, all such matters are either covered by insurance, are without merit or involve amounts which, if resolved unfavorably, would not have a significant effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Partnership. Once
management determines that information pertaining to a legal proceeding indicates that it is probable that a liability has been incurred, an accrual is established equal to

managements estimate of the likely exposure. For matters that are covered by insurance, the Partnership accrues the
related deductible. As of February 28, 2006 and August 31, 2005, an accrual of $2,823 and $1,120, respectively, was recorded as accrued and other current liabilities on the Partnerships condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Environmental

The Partnerships operations are
subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations that require expenditures for remediation at operating facilities and waste disposal sites. Although the Partnership believes its operations are in substantial
compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations, risks of additional costs and liabilities are inherent in the natural gas pipeline and processing business, and there can be no assurance that significant costs and liabilities will not
be incurred. Moreover, it is possible that other developments, such as increasingly stringent environmental laws, regulations and enforcement policies thereunder, and claims for damages to property or persons resulting from the operations could
result in substantial costs and liabilities. Accordingly, the Partnership has adopted policies, practices, and procedures in the areas of pollution control, product safety, occupational health, and the handling, storage, use, and disposal of
hazardous materials to prevent material environmental or other damage, and to limit the financial liability, which could result from such events. However, some risk of environmental or other damage is inherent in the natural gas pipeline and
processing business, as it is with other entities engaged in similar businesses.

Environmental exposures and liabilities are difficult to assess and
estimate due to unknown factors such as the magnitude of possible contamination, the timing and extent of remediation, the determination of the Partnerships liability in proportion to other parties, improvements in cleanup technologies and the
extent to which environmental laws and regulations may change in the future. Although environmental costs may have a significant impact on the results of operations for any single period, the Partnership believes that such costs will not have a
material adverse effect on its financial position. As of February 28, 2006 and August 31, 2005, an accrual on an undiscounted basis of $1,992 and $2,036, respectively, was recorded as accrued and other current liabilities and other
non-current liabilities in the Partnerships condensed consolidated balance sheets to cover environmental liabilities including certain matters assumed in connection with the HPL acquisition. A receivable of $392 and $404 was recorded on the
Partnerships condensed consolidated balance sheets as of February 28, 2006 and August 31, 2005, respectively, to account for a predecessors share of certain environmental liabilities.

13. PRICE RISK MANAGEMENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES:

Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Partnership applies Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities(SFAS 133) as amended. This statement requires that all derivatives be recognized in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at fair
value. Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivatives gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the statement of operations and requires that a company must formally document, designate and assess the
effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting treatment.

The Partnership has established a formal risk management policy in which derivative
financial instruments are employed in connection with an underlying asset, liability or anticipated transaction. At inception of a hedge, the Partnership formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, the
risk management objectives, the methods used for assessing and testing effectiveness, and how any ineffectiveness will be measured and recorded. The Partnership also assesses, both at the inception of the hedge and on a quarterly basis, whether the
derivatives that are used in its hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows. Furthermore, management meets on a weekly basis to assess the creditworthiness of the derivative counterparties to manage against the
risk of default. If the Partnership determines that a derivative is no longer highly effective as a hedge, it discontinues hedge accounting prospectively by including changes in the fair value of the derivative in current earnings.

The market prices used to value the Partnerships financial derivative transactions reflect managements estimates considering various factors including
closing exchange and over-the-counter quotations.

Non-trading Activities

The Partnership utilizes various exchange-traded and over-the-counter commodity financial instrument contracts to limit its exposure to margin fluctuations in natural gas and NGL prices. These contracts consist primarily of futures and
swaps and are recorded at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. If the Partnership designates a financial derivative instrument as a cash flow hedge and it qualifies for hedge accounting, a change in the fair value is deferred in
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) until the underlying hedged transaction occurs. Any ineffective portion of a cash flow hedges change in market value is recognized each period in earnings. Realized gains and losses on
derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges are included in cost of products sold in the period the hedged transactions occurs. Gains and losses deferred in OCI related to cash flow hedges remain in OCI until the
underlying physical transaction occurs unless it is probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur by the end of the originally specified time period or within an additional two-month period of time thereafter. For those financial
derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting, the change in market value is recorded as cost of products sold in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Partnership reclassified into earnings gains of $142,989 and
$41,675 for the three and six months ended February 28, 2006, respectively, and gains of $4,056 and losses of $10,731 for the three and six months ended February 28, 2005, respectively, related to commodity financial instruments that were
previously reported in OCI.

In the course of normal operations, the Partnership routinely enters into contracts such as forward physical contracts for the
purchase and sale of natural gas, propane, and other NGLs that qualify for and are designated as a normal purchase and sales contracts. Such contracts are exempted from the fair value accounting requirements of SFAS 133 and are accounted for using
accrual accounting. In connection with the HPL acquisition, the Partnership acquired certain physical forward contracts that contain embedded options. These contracts have not been designated as normal purchases and sales contracts, and therefore,
are marked to market in addition to the financial options that offset them. The Black Scholes valuation model was used to estimate the value of these embedded derivatives.

Trading Activities

The Partnership has a risk management policy that governs its marketing and trading operations.
These activities are monitored independently by the Partnerships risk management function and must take place within predefined limits and authorizations. Certain strategies are considered trading for accounting purposes and are executed with
the use of a combination of financial instruments including, but not limited to, basis contracts and gas daily contracts. The Partnership accounts for its trading activities under the provisions of EITF Issue No. 02-3, Accounting for
Contracts Involved in Energy Trading and Risk Management Activities (EITF 02-3), which requires revenue and costs related to energy trading contracts to be presented on a net basis in the income statement. The derivative contracts
that are entered into for trading purposes, subject to limits, are recognized on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value, and changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recognized in midstream and transportation and
storage revenue in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Gains and losses associated with trading activities for the three and six months ended February 28, 2006 were losses of $2,743 and gains of $49,837, respectively, including
unrealized losses of $25,530 and $19,117, respectively. There were no trading activities during the three or six months ended February 28, 2005.

The Partnership expects gains of $26,951 to be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve months related to
income currently reported in OCI. The amount ultimately realized, however, will differ as commodity prices change. The majority of the Partnerships derivatives are expected to settle within the next two years.

Estimates related to the Partnerships gas marketing activities are sensitive to uncertainty and volatility inherent in the energy commodities markets and actual
results could differ from these estimates. The Partnership also attempts to maintain balanced positions in its non-trading activities to protect itself from the volatility in the energy commodities markets; however, net unbalanced positions can
exist. Long-term physical contracts are tied to index prices. System gas, which is also tied to index prices, will provide the gas required by our long-term physical contracts. When third-party gas is required to supply long-term contracts, a hedge
is put in place to protect the margin on the contract. Financial contracts, which are not tied to physical delivery, will be offset with financial contracts to balance the Partnerships positions. To the extent open commodity positions exist,
fluctuating commodity prices can impact the Partnerships financial results and financial position, either favorably or unfavorably.

During the three months ended February 28, 2006 the Partnership discontinued application of hedge accounting in
connection with certain derivative financial instruments that were qualified for and designated as cash flow hedges related to forecasted sales of natural gas stored in the Partnerships Bammel storage facilities. The discontinuation resulted
from managements determination that the originally forecasted sales of natural gas from the storage facilities were no longer probable of occurring by the end of the originally specified time period, or within an additional two-month period of
time thereafter. The determination was made principally due to the unseasonably warm weather that occurred during February 2006 through March 2006 and the Partnerships flexibility to make changes to the underlying injection and withdrawal
schedule for its storage assets, given changes in market conditions. One of the key criteria to achieve hedge accounting under SFAS 133 is that the forecasted transaction be probable of occurring as originally set forth in the hedge documentation.
As a result, during the three months ended February 28, 2006, the Partnership recognized previously deferred unrealized gains related to February 2006 and March 2006 of $84,680 from the discontinued application of hedge accounting, which is
included in the $142,989 and $41,675 reclassified into earnings from OCI during the three and six months ended February 28, 2006, respectively. The Partnership classified the $84,680 as costs of products sold in its consolidated statements of
operations.

Interest Rate Risk

The Partnership is
exposed to market risk for changes in interest rates related to its bank credit facilities. The Partnership manages a portion of its interest rate exposures by utilizing interest rate swaps and similar arrangements which allow the Partnership to
effectively convert a portion of variable rate debt into fixed rate debt.

Treasury locks with a notional amount of $200,000 were entered into and
outstanding as of February 28, 2006 and had a fair value of $4,812 which was recorded as unrealized gains in OCI and a component of price risk management assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The outstanding treasury locks as of
February 28, 2006 were entered into in anticipation of a bond offering to occur in fiscal year 2006. Nominal gains and losses were reclassified into earnings previously reported in OCI during the three and six months ended February 28,
2006 and the three and six months ended February 28, 2005 related to treasury locks. Gains of $756 were reclassified into earnings previously reported in OCI during the six months ended February 28, 2006.

ETC OLP also had a treasury lock with a notional amount of $75,000 that matured in October 2005. As of August 31, 2005, the treasury lock had a fair value of $151.
Under the terms of the lock agreement, the Partnership paid a fixed rate of 2.76% and received three-month LIBOR with a quarterly settlement. The treasury lock was not accounted for as a hedge but received mark to market accounting. Accordingly,
changes in the fair value are recorded as a component of interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The following represents gains (losses) on derivative activity for the periods presented:

14. QUARTERLY DISTRIBUTIONS OF AVAILABLE CASH:

On October 14, 2005, the Partnership paid a quarterly distribution of $0.50 per unit, or $2.00 per unit annually, to the Unitholders of record at the close of
business on September 30, 2005. On January 13, 2006, the Partnership paid a quarterly distribution of $0.55 per unit, or $2.20 per unit annually to Unitholders of record at the close of business on January 4, 2006. On March 7,
2006, the Partnership declared a cash distribution for the second quarter ended February 28, 2006 of $0.5875 per Common Unit, or $2.35 per unit annually, an increase of $0.15 per Common Unit on an annualized basis. The distribution is payable
on April 14, 2006 to Unitholders of record at the close of business on March 24, 2006. In addition to these quarterly distributions, the General Partner, Energy Transfer Partners, GP, L.P. (ETP GP), received quarterly
distributions for its general partner interest in the Partnership and incentive distributions to the extent the quarterly distribution exceeded $0.275 per unit. The total amount of distributions declared relating to the six months ended
February 28, 2006 on Common Units, the Class F Units, the Class E Units, the General Partner interests and the Incentive Distribution Rights totaled $122,325, $1,510, $6,242, $3,486, and $40,767, respectively. All such distributions were made
from Available Cash from Operating Surplus.

15. PARTNERS CAPITAL:

Pursuant to its general partner authority, the Partnerships General Partner amended the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of ETP on February 6, 2006, to create a new class of limited
partner interests titled Class F Units. The terms and provisions of the Class F Units provide that they may be converted to Common Units upon the approval of a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the Partnerships Common Units provided
that the total votes cast by such holders represent a majority of the Common Units entitled to vote. Prior to conversion of the Class F Units, the Class F Units will share in Partnership distributions and will be entitled to all items of Partnership
income, gain, loss, deduction and credit as if the Class F Units were Subordinated Units. Upon receiving the requisite approval by the Partnerships common unitholders under a proposal to convert the Class F Units to Common Units, all Class F
Units shall convert to Common Units on a one-for-one basis. In the event the Class F Units are not converted to Common Units within six months of their issuance, the Class F Units will be entitled to share in Partnership distributions based on 115%
of the amount of any Partnership distribution to each Common Unit, and the right to receive distributions shall have the same order of priority relative to distributions on the Common Units.

On February 8, 2006, the Partnership sold and issued 1,069,850 Common Units and 2,570,150 Class F Units representing limited partnership interests in the
Partnership, to Energy Transfer Equity, L.P., (ETE). ETE owns 100% of the 2% general partner interests in ETP GP and 50% of the incentive distribution rights in the Partnership (which it holds through its ownership interests in ETP GP).
The price paid for each of the Common Units and Class F Units was equal to $36.37 per unit, the New York Stock Exchange closing price of the Partnerships Common Units on February 8, 2006. The Common Units and Class F Units were issued to
ETE in a private placement that is exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Of the aggregate proceeds of $132,387 from the sale, $75,000 was used to extinguish the HOLP Senior Revolving
Acquisition Facility, to pay down the HOLP Senior Revolving Working Capital Facility, and for HOLP general operating purposes. The remaining balance of $57,387 from the proceeds was used to pay down existing debt on the ETP Revolving Credit Facility
and for general Partnership operating purposes.

16. INCOME TAXES:

Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. is a limited partnership. As a result, the Partnerships earnings or losses, to the extent not included in a taxable subsidiary, for federal and state income tax purposes are
included in the tax returns of the individual partners. 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 financial reporting
basis of assets and liabilities, in addition to the allocation requirements related to taxable income under the Partnership Agreement.

The Partnership is
generally not subject to income tax. It is, however, subject to a statutory requirement that its non-qualifying income (including income such as derivative gains from trading activities, service income, tank rentals and others) cannot exceed 10% of
its total gross income, determined on a calendar year basis under the applicable income tax provisions. If the amount of the Partnerships non-qualifying income exceeds this statutory limit, the Partnership would be taxed as a corporation.
Accordingly, certain activities that generate non-qualified income are conducted through taxable corporate subsidiaries (C corporations). These C corporations are subject to federal and state income tax and pay the income taxes related
to the results of their operations. For the periods ended February 28, 2006 and 2005, the Partnerships non-qualifying income did not exceed the statutory limit.

Those subsidiaries which are taxable corporations follow the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS 109). Under SFAS 109, deferred income taxes are recorded based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax
bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the underlying assets are received and liabilities settled.

The difference between the statutory rate and the effective rate is summarized as follows:

As of February 28, 2006 and August 31, 2005, the Partnership had a note payable of $0 and $2,062,
respectively, related to its contribution in a propane joint venture entered into July 2005 in which it owns a 50% interest. The note bears interest at an annual rate equal to the one month LIBOR rate plus 150 basis points, compounded monthly.

On February 2, 2006 the Partnership entered into a shared services agreement in conjunction with the initial public offering of ETE. Under the terms
of the shared services agreement, ETE will pay the Partnership an annual administrative fee of $500 for the provision of various general and administrative services for ETEs benefit. The administrative fee may increase in the second and third
years by the greater of 5% or the percentage increase in the consumer price index and may also increase if ETE makes an acquisition that requires an increase in the level of general and administrative services that ETE receives from its general
partner or its affiliates. Fees recognized during the three months ended February 28, 2006 were nominal.

19. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS:

The Partnerships financial statements reflect four reportable segments: ETC OLPs midstream and transportation and storage operations and HOLPs retail and wholesale propane operations, including the
operations of MP Energy Partnership. Segments below the quantitative thresholds are classified as other. None of these segments have ever met any of the quantitative thresholds for determining reportable segments.

Midstream and transportation and storage segment revenues and expenses include intersegment transactions, which are generally based on transactions made at
market-related rates. Consolidated revenues and expenses reflect the elimination of all material intercompany transactions. Certain overhead costs relating to a reportable segment have been allocated for purposes of calculating operating income.

The midstream operations focus on the gathering, compression, treating, processing, transportation and marketing of natural gas, primarily on or through
the Southeast Texas System, and marketing operations related to our producer services business. Revenue is primarily generated by the volumes of natural gas gathered, compressed, treated, processed, transported, purchased and sold through the
Partnerships pipelines (excluding the transportation pipelines) and gathering systems as well as the level of natural gas and NGL prices. The transportation and storage operations focus on transporting natural gas through the
Partnerships Oasis Pipeline, ET Fuel System, East Texas Pipeline System, and HPL System. Revenue is typically generated from fees charged to customers to reserve firm capacity on or move gas through the pipeline on an interruptible basis. A
monetary fee and/or fuel retention are also components of the fee structure. Excess fuel retained after consumption is typically valued at the first of the month published market prices and strategically sold when market prices are favorable. The
transportation and storage operations also consist of the HPL System which generates its revenue primarily from the sale of natural gas to electric utilities, independent power plants, local distribution companies, industrial end-users, and other
marketing companies. The use of the Bammel storage reservoir allows the Partnership to purchase physical natural gas and then sell financial contracts at a price sufficient to cover its carrying costs and provide a gross profit margin. The HPL
System also transports natural gas for a variety of third party customers. Investment in affiliates relates primarily to the Partnerships investment in Mid Texas Pipeline System which is included in our transportation and storage segment.

The Partnerships retail and wholesale propane segments sell products and services to retail and wholesale customers. Intersegment sales by the
foreign wholesale operations to the retail propane operations are priced in accordance with the partnership agreement of MP Energy Partnership. The Partnership manages its propane segments separately as each segment involves different distribution,
sale, and marketing strategies.

The Partnership evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on operating income exclusive of certain general
Partnership selling, general, and administrative expenses, gain (loss) on disposal of assets, minority interests, interest expense, earnings (losses) from equity investments and income tax expense (benefit).

The following table presents the unaudited financial information by segment for the following periods:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following is a
discussion of the historical financial condition and results of operations of the Partnership and its subsidiaries, and should be read in conjunction with our historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included
elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2005 and December 12, 2005,
respectively.

Overview

Midstream and
transportation and storage segments

Our midstream and transportation and storage segments are operated by ETC OLP. We own and operate approximately
11,700 miles of natural gas gathering and transportation pipelines, three natural gas processing plants, two of which are currently connected to our gathering systems, fourteen natural gas treating facilities and three natural gas storage
facilities.

Midstream segment

Our midstream segment
focuses on the transportation, gathering, compression, treating, processing and marketing of natural gas. Our operations are currently concentrated in the Austin Chalk trend of southeast Texas, the Permian Basin of west Texas, the Barnett Shale in
north Texas and the Bossier Sands in east Texas. We also conduct marketing operations through our producer services business.

Results from the midstream
segment are determined primarily by the volumes of natural gas gathered, compressed, treated, processed, purchased and sold through our pipeline and gathering systems and the level of natural gas and NGL prices. We generate our midstream gross
margins under fee-based or other arrangements. Under fee-based arrangements, we receive a fee for natural gas gathering, compressing, treating or processing services. The revenue we earn from these arrangements is directly related to the volume of
natural gas that flows through our systems and is not directly dependent on commodity prices.

We also utilize other types of arrangements in the midstream
segment, including (i) discount-to-index price arrangements which involve purchases of natural gas at either (1) a percentage discount to a specified index price, (2) a specified index price less a fixed amount or (3) a
percentage discount to a specified index price less an additional fixed amount, (ii) percentage-of-proceeds arrangements under which we gather and process natural gas on behalf of producers, sell the resulting residue gas and NGL volumes at
market prices and remit to producers an agreed-upon percentage of the proceeds based on an index price, and (iii) keep-whole arrangements where we gather natural gas from the producer, process the natural gas and sell the resulting NGLs to
third parties at market prices. In many cases, we provide services under contracts that contain a combination of more than one of the arrangements described above. The terms of our contracts vary based upon gas quality conditions, the competitive
environment at the time the contracts are signed and customer requirements. The contract mix may change as a result of changes in producer preferences, expansion in regions where some types of contracts are more common and other market factors.

We conduct our marketing operations through our producer services business, in which we market the natural gas that flows through our assets, which we
refer to as on-system gas. We also attract other customers by marketing volumes of natural gas that do not move through our assets, which we refer to as off-system gas. For both on-system and off-system gas, we purchase natural gas from natural gas
producers and other supply points and sell that natural gas to utilities, industrial consumers, other marketers and pipeline companies, thereby generating gross margins based upon the difference between the purchase and resale prices.

The Partnership has a risk management policy that provides for our marketing and trading operations to execute limited
strategies. These activities are monitored independently by our risk management function and must take place within predefined limits and authorizations. Certain strategies are considered trading activities for accounting purposes and are accounted
for in net revenues on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Our trading activities include purchasing and selling natural gas and the use of financial instruments, including basis contracts and gas daily contracts.

Transportation and storage segment

Our transportation and storage
segment focuses on the transportation of natural gas through the following pipeline systems:



| |  |  | Oasis Pipeline. The Oasis Pipeline is a 583-mile natural gas pipeline that directly connects the Waha Hub, a major natural gas trading center located in the Permian Basin of west
Texas, to the Katy Hub, a major natural gas trading center near Houston, Texas.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | East Texas Pipeline. The East Texas Pipeline connects natural gas supplies in east Texas to the Katy Hub.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | ET Fuel System. The ET Fuel System, which serves some of the most active drilling areas in the United States, is comprised of approximately 2,000 miles of intrastate natural gas
pipeline and related natural gas storage facilities located in Texas. With approximately 460 receipt and/or delivery points, including interconnects with pipelines providing direct access to power plants and interconnects with other intrastate and
interstate pipelines, the ET Fuel System is strategically located near high-growth production areas and major markets such as the Waha Hub, the Katy Hub and the Carthage Hub, three major natural gas trading centers located in Texas.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | HPL System. The HPL System is comprised of approximately 4,200 miles of intrastate natural gas pipeline, 64 Bcf of working gas underground Bammel storage reservoir and related
transportation assets. The HPL System has access to multiple sources of historically significant natural gas supply reserves from south Texas, the Gulf Coast, east Texas and the western Gulf of Mexico and is directly connected to major gas
distribution, electric and industrial load centers in Houston, Corpus Christi, Texas City, Baytown, Beaumont and Port Arthur. The HPL System consists of six main transportation pipelines and three market area loops and has direct access to multiple
market hubs at Katy, the Houston Ship Channel, Ague Dulce, and through its operations of the Bammel storage facility.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Results from our
transportation and storage segment are determined primarily by the amount of capacity our customers reserve as well as the actual volume of natural gas that flows through our transportation pipelines. Under transportation contracts, we charge our
customers (i) a demand fee, which is a fixed fee for the reservation of an agreed amount of capacity on the transportation pipeline for a specified period of time and which obligates the customer to pay us even if the customer does not
transport natural gas on the respective pipeline, (ii) a transportation fee, which is based on the actual throughput of natural gas by the customer, and (iii) a fuel retention based on a percentage of gas transported on the pipeline, or a
combination of the three, generally payable monthly. We also generate revenue from fees charged for storing customers working natural gas in our storage facilities, primarily on the ET Fuel system, and to a lesser extent, at HPL.

The transportation and storage segment also generates revenues and margin from the sale of natural gas to electric utilities, independent power plants, local
distribution companies, industrial end-users, and other marketing companies on the HPL System. Generally, HPL purchases its natural gas from the market, including purchases from the midstream segments producer services, and from producers at
the wellhead. To the extent the natural gas is obtained from producers, it is purchased at a discount to a specified price and is typically resold to customers at a price based on a published index.

We engage in natural gas storage transactions in which we seek to find and profit from pricing differences that occur over time utilizing the Bammel storage reservoir on
our HPL System. The Bammel storage reservoir is one of the largest storage facilities in North America with a total working gas capacity of approximately 64 Bcf. The reservoir has a peak withdrawal rate of 1.3 Bcf/d and also has considerable
flexibility during injection periods in that the HPL System has engineered an injection well configuration to provide for a 0.6 Bcf/d peak injection rate. Therefore, we purchase physical natural gas and then sell financial contracts at a price
sufficient to cover our carrying costs and

provide for a gross profit margin. Since the acquisition, we have continually managed our positions to enhance the future
profitability of our storage position. We may, from time to time, change our scheduled injection and withdrawal plans based on market conditions and adjust the level of working natural gas stored in the Bammel reservoir. We expect margins from the
HPL System to be higher during the periods from November to March of each year and lower during the period from April through October of each year due to the increased demand for natural gas during colder weather. However, we cannot assure that
managements expectations will be fully realized in the future and in what time period, due to various factors including weather, availability of natural gas in regions in which we operate, competitive factors in the energy industry, and other
issues.

As a result of our trading activities discussed in Note 17 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, and the use of
financial derivative instruments that may not qualify for hedge accounting in our midstream and transportation and storage segments, the degree of earnings volatility that can occur may be significant, favorably or unfavorably, from period to
period. We attempt to manage this volatility through the use of daily position and profit and loss reports provided to our risk management committee which includes members of senior management, and predefined limits and authorizations set forth by
our risk management policy.

Retail and wholesale propane segments

Our propane related segments are operated by HOLP and its subsidiaries who are engaged in the sale, distribution and marketing of propane and other related products through its retail, domestic wholesale and foreign
wholesale propane segments (the propane segments). HOLP derives its revenue primarily from the retail propane segment. We believe that we are the one of the five largest retail marketers of propane in the United States, based on retail gallons sold.
We serve more than 700,000 propane customers from 321 customer service locations in 34 states.

The propane segments are margin-based businesses in which
gross profits depend on the excess of sales price over propane supply cost. The market price of propane is often subject to volatile changes as a result of supply or other market conditions over which we will have no control. Product supply
contracts are typically one-year agreements subject to annual renewal and generally permit suppliers to charge posted prices (plus transportation costs) at the time of delivery or the current prices established at major delivery points. Since rapid
increases in the wholesale cost of propane may not be immediately passed on to retail customers, such increases could reduce gross profits. We generally have attempted to reduce price risk by purchasing propane on a short-term basis. We have on
occasion purchased significant volumes of propane during periods of low demand, which generally occur during the summer months, at the then current market price, for storage both at our customer service locations and in major storage facilities for
future resale.

Our retail propane business consists principally of transporting propane purchased in the contract and spot markets, primarily from major
fuel suppliers, to our customer service locations and then to propane tanks located on the customers premises, as well as to portable propane cylinders. In the residential and commercial markets, propane is primarily used for space heating,
water heating, and cooking. In the agricultural market, propane is primarily used for crop drying, tobacco curing, poultry brooding, and weed control. In addition, propane is used for certain industrial applications, including use as an engine fuel
to power vehicles and forklifts and as a heating source in manufacturing and mining processes.

Our propane distribution business is largely seasonal and
dependent upon weather conditions in our service areas. Propane sales to residential and commercial customers are affected by winter heating season requirements. Historically, approximately two-thirds of HOLPs retail propane volume and
substantially all of HOLPs operating income are attributable to sales during the six-month peak-heating season of October through March. This generally results in higher operating revenues and net income in the propane segments during the
period from October through March of each year, and lower operating revenues and either net losses or lower net income during the period from April through September of each year. Consequently, sales and operating profits for the propane segments
are concentrated in the first and second fiscal quarters, however, cash flow from operations generally begins to increase during the second fiscal quarter with the greatest amounts collected during the third and fourth fiscal quarters when customers
pay for propane purchased during the peak-heating season and enter into prebuy programs for the next heating season. Sales to industrial and agricultural customers are much less weather sensitive.

A substantial portion of our propane is used in the heating-sensitive residential and commercial markets causing the temperatures realized in our areas of operations,
particularly during the six-month peak-heating season, to have a significant effect on the financial performance of our propane operations. In any given area, sustained warmer-than-normal temperatures will tend to result in reduced propane use,
while sustained colder-than-normal temperatures



33

##### Table of Contents

will tend to result in greater propane use. We use information on normal temperatures in understanding how temperatures
that are colder or warmer than normal affect historical results of operations and in preparing forecasts related to our future operations.

The retail
propane segments gross profit margins are not only affected by weather patterns, but also vary according to customer mix. Sales to residential customers generate higher margins than sales to certain other customer groups, such as commercial or
agricultural customers. The wholesale propane segments margins are substantially lower than retail margins. In addition, propane gross profit margins vary by geographical region. Accordingly, a change in customer or geographic mix can affect
propane gross profit without necessarily affecting total revenues.

Amounts discussed below reflect 100% of the results of MP Energy Partnership. MP Energy
Partnership is a Canadian general partnership in which HOLP owns a 60% interest. Because MP Energy Partnership is primarily engaged in lower-margin wholesale distribution, its contribution to our net income is not significant.

Current Developments

On February 8, 2006, the Partnership sold
and issued 1,069,850 Common Units and 2,570,150 Class F Units representing limited partnership interests in the Partnership to ETE. ETE owns 100% of the 2% general partner interests in ETP GP and 50% of the incentive distribution rights in the
Partnership (which it holds through its ownership interests in ETP GP). The price paid for each of the Common Units and Class F Units was equal to $36.37 per unit, the New York Stock Exchange closing price of the Partnerships Common Units on
February 8, 2006. The Common Units and Class F Units were issued to ETE in a private placement that is exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Of the aggregate proceeds of $132.4 million
from the sale, $75.0 million was used to extinguish the HOLP Senior Revolving Acquisition Facility, to pay down the HOLP Senior Working Capital Facility, and for HOLP general operating purposes. The remaining balance of the proceeds, $57.4 million,
was used to pay down existing debt on the ETP Revolving Credit Facility and for general Partnership operating purposes.

Analysis of Historical Results
of Operations

We acquired the HPL System on January 26, 2005. The acquisition of HPL affects the comparability of the historical results of
operations in our transportation and storage operating segment for the three and six months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the three and six months ended February 28, 2005, as the results of operations for the three and six months
ended February 28, 2005 only reflect the impact of this acquisition since January 2005. On November 10, 2005, we purchased the 2% limited partner interest in HPL that we did not already own from AEP for $16.6 million in cash. As a result,
HPL became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ETC OLP. We also reached a settlement agreement with AEP related to the inventory and working capital matters associated with the HPL acquisition. The terms of the agreement were not material in relation to
our financial position and results of operations.

In addition, we completed the sale of our Oklahoma gathering, treating and processing assets, referred
to as the Elk City System, on April 14, 2005. These discontinued operations are presented as net amounts in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, with prior periods restated. Selected operating results for the midstream segment
discussed below have been restated for the prior periods presented to reflect the discontinued operations.

Overall Increase in Results of Operations.We have experienced a significant increase in our results of operations for the three and six months ended February 28, 2006 when compared to the same period last year. The increase is principally attributable to the following:



| |  |  | Acquisitions. We have been successful in completing various strategic acquisitions during the last twelve to eighteen months by both of our operating partnerships, ETC OLP
and HOLP. As discussed above, we completed the acquisition of the HPL System on January 26, 2005. We also acquired the Texas Chalk and Madison System in November 2004. These acquisitions have significantly increased our asset base and
operations for the three and six months ended February 28, 2006. In addition, HOLP has made a number of propane acquisitions during the periods presented;

| |  | Natural gas sales volumes increased by 118,056 MMBtu/d for the three months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. The increase was principally
attributable to increased marketing efforts by our producer services operations to market on and off-system natural gas. Our sales volumes of NGLs vary due to our ability to by-pass our processing plants when conditions exist that make it less
favorable to process and extract NGLs from our processing plants. The decrease in NGLs sales volumes is principally due to a change in contract mix with one of our major producers and the election to by-pass our processing plant as a result of less
favorable market conditions during the three months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the same period last year.

For
the six months ended February 28, 2006, natural gas sales volumes increased by 215,362 MMBtu/d compared to the six months ended February 28, 2005. The increase was principally attributable to the acquisition of the Texas Chalk and Madison
Systems on November 1, 2004, as the Texas Chalk and Madison Systems essentially doubled the number of producing wells from 1,000 to 2,000, and increased marketing efforts by our producer services operations to market on and off-system
natural gas. Our sales volumes of NGLs vary due to our ability to by-pass our processing plants when conditions exist that make it less favorable to process and extract NGLs from our processing plants. The decrease in NGLs sales volumes is
principally due to a change in contract mix with one of our major producers and the election to by-pass our processing plant as a result of less favorable market conditions during the latter part of the six months ended February 28, 2006
compared to the same period last year.

| |  | Transported natural gas volumes increased by 1,186,141 MMBtu/d between the three month period ended February 28, 2006 and 2005. The increase in transportation volumes is
principally due to the increased volumes experienced in the Oasis Pipeline system, ET Fuel system and East Texas Pipeline system as a result of our effort to secure firm commitments on our transportation assets and a higher price differential
between the Waha and Katy market hubs during the periods presented. Natural gas sales volumes on the HPL System for the three months ended February 28, 2006 decreased 170,693 MMBtu/d compared to the three months ended February 28, 2005,
principally due to warmer weather during the three months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the same period last year.

| |  | Retail Propane.Of the 0.1 million increase in retail propane gallons sold for the three months ended February 28, 2006, compared to the three months ended
February 28, 2005, 7.6 million gallons was primarily the result of volumes sold by customer service locations added through acquisitions, offset by a 7.5 million gallon decrease related to warm weather. The weather in our areas of
operations during the three months ended February 28, 2006 was 1.2% warmer than the three months ended February 28, 2005 and 9.2% warmer than normal.

| |  | Wholesale Propane. The increase of 2.5 million wholesale propane gallons between the three months ended February 28, 2006 and 2005 is due to an increase of
1.1 million domestic gallons sold as a result of several new customers in our eastern wholesale operations, and an increase of 1.4 million gallons in our foreign wholesale operations which is related to increased marketing efforts in our
foreign operations.

For the six months ended February 28, 2006, wholesale propane gallons increased by 3.8 million
gallons compared to the same period in 2005. Of this increase, 3.1 million is due to an increase in gallons sold in our U.S. wholesale operations as a result of several new customers in our eastern wholesale and foreign operations, and an
increase of 0.7 million gallons in our foreign wholesale operations which is related to increased marketing efforts in our foreign operations.

See the detailed discussion of revenues, costs of sales, margin, and other operating expense by operating segment below.

Interest Expense.Interest expense increased by $5.5 million for the three months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the three months ended
February 28, 2005. The principal factors for the increase are a $12.2 million increase due to borrowings on the Senior Notes and the Revolving Credit Facility in January 2005, offset by a decrease of $7.3 million resulting from the reduction of
long term debt in January 2005 and the effects of interest rate swaps accounted for at ETC OLP.

For the six months ended February 28, 2006 compared
to the six months ended February 28, 2005, interest expense increased $16.6 million. The principal factors for this increase are a $33.2 million increase due to borrowings on the Senior Notes and the Revolving Credit Facility in January 2005
offset by a decrease of $16.9 million due to the reduction of long term debt in January 2005 and the effects of interest rate swaps accounted for at ETC OLP.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt. During the three and six months ended February 28, 2005, we refinanced certain debt and wrote off $8.0 million of debt issuance costs associated with the debt that was repaid with the proceeds
from the issuance of $750 million of 5.95% senior notes. The write-offs were accounted for as loss on extinguishment of debt.

Income Tax Expense.As a partnership, we are not subject to income taxes. However certain wholly-owned subsidiaries are corporations that are subject to income taxes. The increase in income taxes of $0.9 million for the three months ended February 28, 2006 and
$22.3 million for the six months ended February 28, 2006 is attributed principally to higher income in a subsidiary treated as a taxable corporation. The higher income was due to gains on financial derivative activity recognized by this
subsidiary. No similar gains were realized by such subsidiary in prior periods.

Income from Continuing Operations.The increase in income from
continuing operations of $164.4 million and $256.9 million between the three and six month periods of 2006 and 2005, respectively is principally due to acquisition-related income, increased volumes and margins on our midstream and transportation and
storage assets and favorable price movement on our derivative positions during the 2006 period.

Income from Discontinued Operations. On
April 14, 2005, we completed the sale of our Oklahoma gathering, treating and processing assets, referred to as the Elk City System. The income from discontinued operations of $1.2 million for the three months ended February 28, 2005 was
comprised of revenues from the Elk City System of $40.7 million and costs and expenses of $39.5 million.

For the six months ended February 28, 2005,
the income from discontinued operations consisted of revenues of $84.2 million and costs and expenses of $79.6 million, resulting in income from discontinued operations of $4.6 million.

There were no discontinued operations for the three or six months ended February 28, 2006.

Net Income. Net income increased by $163.2 million and $252.4 million between the comparable three and six months periods of February 28, 2006 and 2005. The
increase is principally due to the effect of the HPL acquisition described above, together with the favorable price movements on financial derivative positions and increased volumes and margins on our midstream and transportation and storage assets.

Gross Margin. Midstreams gross margin increased by $2.4 million. The increase was principally due to
increased volumes on our gathering systems which resulted in higher fee-based revenues. The increase was offset by lower margins generated by our producer services between the 2005 and 2006 periods and $2.7 million in losses, including $25.5 million
of unrealized losses, associated with certain trading activities during the three months ended February 28, 2006. No margins associated with trading activities were recognized in the comparable 2005 period as we did not commence certain trading
activities until the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005.

For the six months ended February 28, 2006, midstreams gross margin increased by $95.2
million. The increase was principally due to favorable price movements on financial derivative positions during the 2006 period, higher margins on sales made by our producer services, and increased volumes on our gathering systems which resulted in
higher fee-based revenues. During the six months ended February 28, 2006, we also recognized $49.8 million in margin, including $19.1 million of unrealized losses, associated with certain trading activities. No margins associated with trading
activities were recognized in the comparable 2005 period as we did not commence certain trading activities until the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005.

Operating Expenses.Midstream operating expenses increased $1.6 million for the three months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the same period ended February 28, 2005. The increase was principally attributable to $0.7
million in increased measurement expenses, $0.5 million in increased chemical costs and increases of $0.4 million in other operating expenses.

Midstream
operating expenses increased $4.9 million for the six months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the six months ended February 28, 2005. The increase was primarily due to $1.5 million in increased measurement expenses, $0.9 million in
increased chemical costs, $0.9 million in scheduled compressor and pipeline maintenance expense, $0.7 million in employee costs, and increases of $0.9 million in other operating expenses principally related to the acquisition of the Texas Chalk and
Madison Systems in November 2004. The period ended February 28, 2005 contained only four months of operating results from those assets.

Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses. The allocation of departmental costs between midstream and the transportation and storage segments are based on factors such as headcount, number of meters, and on-going projects and is intended to fairly
present the segments operating results. Midstream general and administrative expenses increased $4.5 million from the three months ended February 28, 2005 compared to the same period ended February 28, 2006. Increases of $11.0
million in employee-related costs such as salaries, incentive compensation and healthcare costs, insurance premium increases of $0.6 million, legal fees increases of $0.7 million and increases in other general and administrative expenses of $0.7
million were offset by increases of $8.5 million in departmental costs allocated to the transportation and storage operating segment.

Midstream general
and administrative expenses for the six months ended February 28, 2006 increased $9.1 million compared to the six months ended February 28, 2005. The increase was attributable to increases of $19.7 million in employee-related costs such as
salaries, incentive compensation and healthcare costs, insurance premium increases of $1.2 million, increases in office-related expenses of $1.7 million, and increases in other general and administrative expenses of $2.1 million. The increase was
offset by increases of $15.5 million in departmental costs allocated to the transportation and storage operating segment.

Depreciation and amortization. Midstream depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.0 million between the
2005 and 2006 period principally due to additions to property and equipment subsequent to February 28, 2005.

The increase of $1.8 million for the six
month period ended 2006 compared to the same period in 2005 is principally due to the Devon acquisition in November 2004 and other additions to property and equipment subsequent to February 28, 2005.

Gross Margin. Transportation and storage gross margin increased between the three months ended
February 28, 2005 and 2006 by $193.8 million. The increase in transportation and storage gross margin is principally due to the following:



| |  | Increased volumes and prices. The increase is principally due to the increase in average natural gas prices period to period which promotes shippers to transport natural gas to more
liquid markets such as the Katy Hub and our strategy to pursue additional volumes on our transportation pipeline systems. The price differential between the Waha and Katy market hubs increased between the 2005 and 2006 periods, thereby influencing
shippers to transport natural gas to regions where natural gas prices are more favorable. We have also successfully secured more firm contracts as evidenced by our recent transportation agreement with XTO. In addition, our Fort Worth Basin
expansion, completed in May 2005, has also allowed shippers to move more gas from the Barnett Shale. We expect our gross margins to continue to increase as a result of this expansion and the recently announced expansion projects; and

| |  | The inclusion of HPLs operating results for the three months ended February 28, 2006. As previously noted, HPL was acquired on January 26, 2005. As such, our results
for the three months ended February 28, 2005 only include one month of margins related to HPL. For the three months ended February 28, 2006, HPLs margin was principally affected by increased margins resulting from the withdrawal of
natural gas stored in the Bammel storage facilities. During the three months ended February 28, 2006, we withdrew approximately 34.3 Bcf of natural gas to meet our customers demands. We also continued to experience increased margins
resulting from favorable pricing between the West and East markets in the Houston Ship Channel, however, at lower levels than previous experienced during our three months ended November 30, 2005. Such pricing continues to remain below levels
experienced during the three months ended November 30, 2005.

During the three months ended February 28, 2006 we also discontinued
application of hedge accounting in connection with certain derivative financial instruments that were qualified for and designated as cash flow hedges related to forecasted sales of natural gas stored in the Partnerships Bammel storage
facilities. The discontinuation resulted from our determination that the originally forecasted sales of natural gas from the storage facilities were no longer probable to occur by the end of the originally specified time period, or within an
additional two-month period of time thereafter. The determination was made principally due to the unseasonably warm weather that occurred during January 2006 through March 2006 and our flexibility to make changes to the underlying injection and
withdrawal schedule for our storage assets, given changes in market conditions. As a result, during the three months ended February 28, 2006, we recognized previously deferred unrealized gains of approximately $84.7 million from the
discontinuation of hedge accounting. Due to the seasonal nature of HPLs operations, we anticipate margin will significantly decrease in our third fiscal quarter of 2006 as we intend to purchase and store natural gas in this period to meet
anticipated demand in the summer of 2006 and winter of 2006-2007.

For the six months ended February 28, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005, transportation and storage gross
margin increased by $278.4 million. The increase in transportation and storage gross margin is principally due to the following:

months ended February 28, 2006 were also affected favorably by higher than normal temperatures during September and October 2005 in regions where our assets are located. The higher temperatures required more demand for natural gas to be used by
electricity-producing power plants connected to these assets; and

| |  | The inclusion of HPLs operating results for the six months ended February 28, 2006. For the six months ended February 28, 2006, HPLs margin was principally
affected by increased margins resulting from favorable pricing between the West and East markets in the Houston Ship Channel. The favorable pricing was attributed to the effects of the hurricanes that struck the east Texas and Louisiana coastlines
in August and September 2005. However, such margins were at lower levels than previous experienced during our three months ended November 30, 2005. Such pricing continues to remain at or below levels experienced during the three months ended
November 30, 2005. As noted above, margins were also affected by the sale of natural gas during the six months ended February 28, 2006 that was held in storage; and

Operating Expenses.Transportation and storage operating
expenses increased $21.2 million when comparing the three months ended February 28, 2006 to the same prior period ended February 28, 2005. The increase was principally attributable to increases of $9.5 million in operating expenses related
to the HPL acquisition, $10.4 million related to compressor fuel consumption resulting from higher throughput volumes and increased gas prices during the period ended February 28, 2006, $0.8 million increase in property taxes, and increases of
$0.5 million, in the aggregate, in other operating expenses. Excluding the impact of volumetric changes, our fuel consumption costs are directly impacted by changes in natural gas prices. Increases in natural gas prices tend to increase our fuel
consumption costs and decreases in natural gas prices tend to decrease our fuel consumption costs.

Transportation and storage operating expenses increased
$55.4 million when comparing the six months ended February 28, 2006 to the same prior period ended February 28, 2005. The increase was principally attributable to increases of $26.8 million in operating expenses related to the HPL
acquisition, $26.0 million related to compressor fuel consumption resulting from higher throughput volumes and increased gas prices during the period ended February 28, 2006, $1.7 million increase in property taxes, and increases of $0.9
million, in the aggregate, in other operating expenses.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Transportation and storage general and
administrative expenses increased $8.0 million for the three months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the three months ended February 28, 2005. The increase was principally due to $8.5 million in certain departmental costs allocated from
the midstream segments offset by a decrease of $0.5 million in other general and administrative expenses. The increase in allocated departmental costs is due to the increase in employee headcount resulting primarily from the HPL acquisition.

Transportation and storage general and administrative expenses increased $15.6 million for the six months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the six
months ended February 28, 2005 principally due to an increase in certain departmental costs allocated from the midstream segment. The increase in allocated departmental costs is due to the increase in employee headcount resulting primarily from
the HPL acquisition.

Depreciation and amortization. Transportation and storage depreciation and amortization expense increased $5.2 million from
the three months ended February 28, 2005 to the three months ended February 28, 2006. The increase was principally due to the HPL acquisition in January 2005, the Fort Worth Basin expansion project completed in May 2005, and additional
compressors and equipment added to existing systems.

Revenues. Retail propane revenue between the three months ended February 28, 2006 and 2005, increased
$47.0 million of which $14.3 million was due to the increase in volumes sold by customer service locations added through acquisitions and $46.9 million is due to higher selling prices. These increases were offset by a decrease of $14.2 million due
to the adverse impact of weather related volumes described above. Other propane related revenues increased $0.8 million for the three months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the same three-month period last year primarily due to increases
resulting from acquisitions.

Of the total increase in retail propane revenue of $76.4 million between the six months ended February 28, 2006 and
2005, $21.4 million is due to the increase in volumes sold by customer service locations added through acquisitions and $72.0 million is due to higher selling prices.. These increases were offset by a decrease of $17.0 million due to the adverse
impact of weather related volumes described above. Other propane related revenues increased $2.7 million for the six months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the same six-month period last year primarily due to other propane related revenues
of companies we have acquired between the two periods.

Costs of Sales. Retail propane cost of sales during the three months ended February 28,
2006 compared to the three months ended February 28, 2005 increased by $34.0 million, of which $33.9 million was due to higher cost of fuel, $8.6 million was due to cost of fuel sold by customer service locations added through acquisitions,
offset by an $8.5 million decrease due to the impact of weather related volumes described above.

During the six months ended February 28, 2006
compared to the six months ended February 28, 2005, retail propane cost of sales increased by $53.9 million of which $13.1 million is a result of an overall increase in gallons sold by customer service locations added through acquisitions,
$51.2 million is due to higher cost of fuel offset by a decrease of $10.4 million due to the impact of weather related volumes described above.

Gross
Margin.The overall increase in gross margins for the three and six-month comparable periods ending February 28, 2006 and 2005 is a function of acquisition related increases and higher sales prices.

Operating Expenses.Operating expenses increased $3.3 million during the three months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the same three-month period last
year due to a combination of a $1.7 million increase in our employee base from acquisitions and annual salary increases, $0.7 million higher fuel costs to run our vehicles and other vehicle expenses, and a $1.8 million general increase in other
operating expenses also from acquisitions, offset by a $0.9 million net decrease in business insurance.

During the six months ended February 28,
2006, operating expenses increased by $7.9 million compared to the same six month period last year due to a combination of a $4.2 million increase in our employee base from acquisitions and annual salary increases, $1.4 million higher fuel costs to
run our vehicles and other vehicle expenses, and a $2.6 million general increase in other operating expenses also from acquisitions, offset by a $0.3 million net decrease in business insurance.

Revenues. Of the increase in wholesale revenue of $9.2 million from the three months ended
February 28, 2006 compared to the same three-month period last year, $3.1 million is primarily related to the increase in gallons sold to new customers in our eastern wholesale and foreign operations, and $6.1 million is related to higher
selling prices.

Of the increase of $14.7 million in wholesale revenue from the six months ended February 28, 2006 compared to same six month period
last year, $4.9 million is primarily related to the increase in gallons sold to new customers in our eastern wholesale and foreign operations and $9.8 million is related to higher selling prices.

February 28, 2005 proportionate to the increase in revenues described above. Wholesale propane cost of sales increased by $4.7 million due to higher selling prices, and by $2.6 million due to the increase in customers in our eastern wholesale
operations described above.

For the six months ended February 28, 2006 compared to the same six-month period last year, total cost of sales increased
by $12.1 million. Of the increase, $7.9 million is due to higher selling prices and $4.2 million is due to the increase in customers in our eastern wholesale operations described above.

Unallocated Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.The selling, general and administrative expenses
that relate to the general operations of the Partnership are not allocated to our segments.

The increases of $4.7 million and $6.4 million in the
total unallocated selling, general, and administrative expenses during the three and six months ended February 28, 2006, respectively compared to the same three and six-month periods last year are primarily due to the $1.5 million increase in
professional fees which is related to our ongoing efforts to comply with the Sarbanes Oxley Act and a $3.4 million increase in additional executive bonuses and non-cash compensation during fiscal year 2006.

INCOME TAXES

As a Partnership we generally are not subject to income
tax. We are, however, subject to a statutory requirement that our non-qualifying income (including income such as derivative gains from trading activities, service income, tank rentals and others) cannot exceed 10% of our total gross income,
determined on a calendar year basis under the applicable income tax provisions. If the amount of our non-qualifying income exceeds this statutory limit, we would be taxed as a corporation. Accordingly, certain activities that generate non-qualified
income are conducted through taxable corporate subsidiaries (C corporations). These C corporations are subject to federal and state income tax and pay the income taxes related to the results of their operations. For the periods ended
February 28, 2006 and 2005, our non-qualifying income did not exceed the statutory limit.

The difference between the
statutory rate and the effective rate is summarized as follows:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our ability to satisfy our obligations will depend on our future performance, which will be subject to prevailing economic, financial, business and weather conditions, and other factors, many of which are beyond
managements control.

Future capital requirements of our business will generally consist of:



| |  |  | maintenance capital expenditures which includes capital expenditures made to connect additional wells to our natural gas systems in order to maintain or increase throughput on
existing assets for which we expect to expend approximately an additional $15.0 million during the current fiscal year, and capital expenditures to extend the useful lives of our propane assets in order to sustain our operations, including vehicle
replacements on our propane vehicle fleet for which we expect to expend approximately an additional $5.0 million;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | growth capital expenditures, mainly for constructing new pipelines, processing plants and treating plants for which we expect to expend approximately an additional $315.0 million
during the current fiscal year; and customer propane tanks for which we expect to expend approximately an additional $10.0 million; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | acquisition capital expenditures including acquisition of new pipeline systems and propane operations.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that cash generated from the operations of our businesses will be sufficient to meet anticipated maintenance capital expenditures. We will initially finance all capital requirements by cash flows from
operating activities. To the extent that our future capital requirements exceed cash flows from operating activities:



| |  |  | maintenance capital expenditures will be financed by the proceeds of borrowings under the existing credit facilities described below;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | growth capital expenditures will be financed by the proceeds of borrowings under the existing credit facilities, the issuance of additional Common Units or a combination thereof;
and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | acquisition capital expenditures will be financed by the proceeds of borrowings under the existing credit facilities, other lines of credit, long-term debt, the issuance of
additional Common Units or a combination thereof.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The assets used in our midstream and transportation and storage segments, including
pipelines, gathering systems and related facilities, are generally long-lived assets and do not require significant maintenance capital expenditures other than new well connects. The assets utilized in our propane operations do not typically require
lengthy manufacturing process time or complicated, high technology components. Accordingly, we do not have any significant financial commitments for maintenance capital expenditures in our propane business.

In connection with the HPL acquisition, we now engage in natural gas storage transactions in which we seek to find and profit from pricing differences that occur over
time. Natural gas is typically purchased and held in storage during the summer months and sold during the winter months. Although we intend to fund natural gas purchases with cash generated from operations, from time to time we may need to finance
the purchase of natural gas to be held in storage with borrowings from our current credit facilities. We intend to repay these borrowings with cash generated from operations when the gas is sold.

Cash Flows

Our internally generated cash flows may change in the
future due to a number of factors, some of which we cannot control. These include regulatory changes, the price for our products and services, the demand for such products and services, margin requirements resulting from significant changes in
commodity prices, operational risks, the successful integration of our acquisitions, including the recently acquired HPL System, and other factors.

Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended February 28, 2006, was $438.1 million as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $156.6 million for the six months ended



44

##### Table of Contents

February 28, 2005. The net cash provided by operations for the six months ended February 28, 2006 consisted of
net income of $370.6 million, non-cash charges of $64.0 million, principally depreciation and amortization, stock based compensation expense, and deferred taxes, and operating funds received of $3.5 million which decreased components of working
capital. Various components of working capital changed significantly from the prior period due to factors such as the variance in the timing of accounts receivable collections, payments on accounts payable, and the timing of the purchase and sale of
inventories related to the propane and transportation and storage operations. Increased fuel prices also contributed to increases in accounts receivable balances with customers, accounts payable for fuel, and inventory costs.

Investing Activities.Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended February 28, 2006 of $261.5 million is comprised of cash paid for
acquisitions of $29.9 million and $255.1 million invested for maintenance and growth capital expenditures needed to sustain operations at current levels and to support growth of operations. Cash used in investing activities was offset by proceeds
from the sale of idle property of $3.9 million and cash received for a working capital settlement on the HPL acquisition of $19.6 million. The cash paid for acquisitions included $16.6 million paid for the acquisition of the 2% remaining interests
in the HPL System and $0.5 million for the remaining interests in the Dorado System, each of which we did not previously own, and cash paid for retail propane acquisitions of $12.8 million.

Financing Activities. Cash used in financing activities during the six months ended February 28, 2006 was $167.6 million. Cash used during the period
primarily reflects $146.4 million of distributions by us to our Common Unitholders, and to our General Partners for its 2% interest and for its incentive distributions, and a net reduction in our debt of $155.1 million during the six months
ended February 28, 2006. The debt reduction was primarily funded through the sale of 1,069,850 Common Units and 2,570,150 Class F Units to ETE for which we received net proceeds of $132.4 million. Our General Partner contributed $2.7 million to
us to maintain its 2% ownership in us during the six months ended February 28, 2006. We also paid other financing costs of $1.2 million during the six months ended February 28, 2006.

Financing and Sources of Liquidity

Description of Indebtedness

The Partnerships indebtedness consists of $750.0 million in principal amount of 5.95% Senior Notes due 2015, $400.0 million in principal amount
of 5.65% Senior Notes due 2012 and a Revolving Credit Facility that allows for borrowings of up to $900.0 million through December 10, 2010. We also currently maintain a separate working capital facility for HOLP. The terms of our indebtedness
and our Operating Partnerships are described in more detail in the Partnerships Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2005, as amended on Form 10-K/A as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2005, and
December 12, 2005, respectively.

Energy Transfer Partners Facilities

On December 13, 2005, we entered into a $900.0 million Revolving Credit Facility which is available through December 10, 2010, which replaced our previous revolving credit facility. Amounts borrowed under the
Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate based on either a Eurodollar rate or a prime rate. The Revolving Credit Facility also offers a Swingline loan option with the maximum borrowing of $50.0 million at a daily rate based on LIBOR. The
maximum commitment fee payable on the unused portion of the facility is 0.25%. The facility is unsecured by and has equal rights to the holders of the Partnerships other current and future unsecured debt. As of February 28, 2006, there was
$100.0 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and no amounts outstanding under the Swingline option. We also had $9.9 million in Letters of Credit outstanding, which reduce the amount available for borrowing under the Revolving
Credit Facility. Letter of Credit Exposure plus borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility cannot exceed the $900.0 million maximum Revolving Credit Facility, which is expandable to $1.0 billion. The weighted average interest rate was 5.32% as
of February 28, 2006. Our available amount under the facility is $790.0 million at February 28, 2006.

HOLP Facilities

Effective September 1, 2005, HOLP entered into the Second Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The amendment states that in no event shall
the Letter of Credit Exposure exceed $15,000 at any time. All of the remaining terms, provisions and conditions of the existing Credit Agreement continue in full force and effect as within the March 31, 2004 Third Amended and Restated Credit
Amendment noted below.

---

##### Table of Contents

The Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement includes a $75.0 million Senior Revolving Working Capital Facility
available through December 31, 2006. Amounts borrowed under the Working Capital Facility bear interest at a rate based on either a Eurodollar rate or a prime rate. The weighted average interest rate was 6.270% for the amount outstanding at
February 28, 2006. The maximum commitment fee payable on the unused portion of the facility is 0.50%. HOLP must reduce the principal amount of working capital borrowings to $10.0 million for a period of not less than 30 consecutive days at
least one time during each fiscal year. All receivables, contracts, equipment, inventory, general intangibles, cash concentration accounts, and the capital stock of HOLPs subsidiaries secure the Senior Revolving Working Capital Facility. As of
February 28, 2006, the Senior Revolving Working Capital Facility had a balance outstanding of $21.2 million, all of which was current, and $6.1 in outstanding Letters of Credit. Letter of Credit exposure plus the Working Capital Loan cannot
exceed the $75.0 million maximum Working Capital Facility.

Prior to February 28, 2006, HOLP also maintained a $75.0 million Senior Revolving
Acquisition Facility for acquisitions of propane-related businesses. Amounts borrowed under the Acquisition Credit Facility bore interest at a rate based on either a Eurodollar rate or a prime rate. All receivables, contracts, equipment, inventory,
general intangibles, cash concentration accounts of HOLP and the capital stock of HOLPs subsidiaries secured the Senior Revolving Acquisition Facility. As of February 28, 2006, HOLP used proceeds received from the sale of Common and Class
F Units to ETE to extinguish the debt and cancelled this facility. HOLP will obtain funds for making acquisitions from the revenues generated from its operations and the operations of it subsidiaries, and from contributions from the Partnership.
Pursuant to the Partnerships Revolving Credit Facility a maximum of $100.0 million per year may be contributed to HOLP annually from funds received in equity offerings of the Partnership. As of February 28, 2006, $75.0 million has been
contributed to HOLP under this arrangement.

Cash Distributions

We will use our cash provided by operating and financing activities from the Operating Partnerships to provide distributions to our Unitholders. Under the Partnership Agreement, we will distribute to our partners an amount equal to all of
our Available Cash for such quarter within 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter. Available Cash generally means, with respect to any quarter of the Partnership, all cash on hand at the end of such quarter less the amount of cash reserves
established by the General Partner in its reasonable discretion that is necessary or appropriate to provide for future cash requirements. Our commitment to our Unitholders is to distribute the increase in our cash flow while maintaining prudent
reserves for the Partnerships operations. On October 14, 2005, we paid a quarterly distribution of $0.50 per unit, or $2.00 per unit annually to Unitholders of record as of the close of business on September 30, 2005. This
distribution represented an increase of $0.05 per unit on an annualized basis over the distribution paid for the third quarter of fiscal 2005. On January 13, 2006, we paid a cash distribution of $0.55 per unit, or $2.20 per unit annually to
Unitholders of record as of the close of business on January 4, 2006. The current distribution includes incentive distributions payable to the General Partner to the extent the quarterly distribution exceeds $0.275 per unit (an annualized rate
of $1.10). On March 7, 2006, the Partnership declared a cash distribution for the second quarter ended February 28, 2006 of $0.5875 per Common Unit, or $2.35 per unit annually, an increase of $0.15 per Common Unit on an annualized basis.
The distribution is payable on April 14, 2006 to Unitholders of record at the close of business on March 24, 2006.

New Accounting Standards

FASB Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations (FIN 47). In March 2005, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) published FIN 47. This interpretation clarified that the term conditional asset retirement obligation as used in SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations (SFAS
143), refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement of the obligation are uncertain. These conditional obligations were not previously addressed by SFAS 143. FIN 47
will require the Partnership to accrue the fair value of a liability for the conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred  generally upon acquisition, construction or development and/or through the normal operation of the asset.
Uncertainty about the timing and/or method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement should be factored into the measurement of the liability when a range of scenarios can be determined. FIN 47 clarifies when an entity would have sufficient
information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. Management intends to adopt FIN 47 no later than the end of the fiscal year ending August 31, 2006, and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact
on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Correction  a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB
Statement No. 3. (SFAS 154)In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154 which requires that the direct effect of voluntary changes in accounting principle be applied retrospectively with all prior period financial statements presented
on the new accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. Indirect effects of a change should be recognized in the period of the change. SFAS 154 is effective
for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. We will adopt the provisions of SFAS 154 as applicable when required.

EITF Issue No. 04-05, Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights (EITF
04-05). EITF 04-05 provides guidance in determining whether a general partner controls a limited partnership by determining the limited partners substantive ability to dissolve (liquidate) the limited partnership as well as assessing
the substantive participating rights of the limited partners within the limited partnership. EITF 04-05 states that if the limited partners do not have substantive ability to dissolve (liquidate) or have substantive participating rights, the general
partner is presumed to control that partnership and would be required to consolidate the limited partnership. This EITF is effective in fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2005. Although this EITF does not directly impact us, it could
potentially impact our general partner. We are currently reviewing the potential impact of EITF 04-05 on our general partner.

EITF Issue No. 04-13,
Accounting for Purchases and Sales of Inventory With the Same Counterparty (EITF 04-13). EITF 04-13 In EITF 04-13, the Task Force reached a tentative conclusion that inventory purchases and sales transactions with the same
counterparty that are entered into in contemplation of one another should be combined for purposes of applying Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions. The tentative conclusions reached by
the Task Force are required to be applied to transactions completed in reporting periods beginning after March 15, 2006. The adoption of this EITF will not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

FSP FAS 123(R)-4, Classification of Options and Similar Instruments Issued as Employee Compensation That Allows for Cash Settlement upon the
Occurrence of a Contingent Event, (FSP 123R4)In February 2006, the FASB issued this Staff Position to address the classification of options and similar instruments issued as employee compensation that allow for cash settlement
upon the occurrence of a contingent event. The guidance amends SFAS 123(R). FSP 123R4 provides that cash settlement features that can be exercised only upon the occurrence of a contingent event that is outside the employees control does not
require classifying the option or similar instrument as a liability until it becomes probable that the event will occur. FSP 123R4 applies only to options or similar instruments issued as part of employee compensation arrangements. The guidance in
FSP 123R4 is effective immediately. The adoption of FSP 123R4 had no impact on us.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The information contained in Item 3 updates and
should be read in conjunction with information set forth in Part II, Item 7A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2005, as amended on Form 10-K/A as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
November 14, 2005, and December 12, 2005, respectively, in addition to the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, accompanying notes and managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations presented in Items 1 and 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk are consistent with those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Credit Risk

We maintain credit policies with regard to our counterparties that we believe significantly minimize overall credit risk. These policies include an evaluation of potential counterparties financial condition (including credit ratings),
collateral requirements under certain circumstances and the use of standardized agreements which allow for netting of positive and negative exposure associated with a single counterparty.

Our counterparties consist primarily of financial institutions, major energy companies and local distribution companies (LDCs). This concentration of
counterparties may impact our overall exposure to credit risk, either positively or negatively in that the counterparties may be similarly affected by changes in economic, regulatory or other conditions. Based on our policies, exposures, credit and
other reserves, we do not anticipate a material adverse effect on financial position or results of operations as a result of counterparty performance.

Sensitivity analysis

The table below summarizes our commodity-related financial derivative instruments and fair values as of
February 28, 2006. It also assumes a hypothetical 10% change in the underlying price of the commodity and its effect.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to changes in interest rates, primarily as a result of our variable rate debt and, in particular, our revolving credit facility. To the extent interest rates increase, our interest expense for our revolving debt will also
increase. At February 28, 2006, we had $121.2 million of variable rate debt outstanding that is not hedged. A hypothetical change of 100 basis points in the underlying interest rate would have an effect of $1.2 million in increased interest
expense on an annual basis.

Treasury locks with a notional amount of $200.0 million were outstanding as of February 28, 2006 and had a fair value of
$4.8 million which was recorded as unrealized gains in OCI and a component of price risk management assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. A hypothetical change of 100 basis points on the underlying interest rates of the treasury locks
outstanding at February 28, 2006 would have an effect of $15.5 million on the value of the locks. We expect to enter into additional treasury locks and similar financial instruments in the future.

We also have long-term debt instruments which are typically issued at fixed interest rates. Prior to or when these debt obligations mature, we may refinance all or a
portion of such debt at then-existing market interest rates which may be more or less than the interest rates on the maturing debt.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our
management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer of our General Partner, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a15(e) and
15d15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of February 28, 2006. Our management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or
our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a
control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. The inherent limitations in all control systems include the realities that judgments in
decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the
control. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Based upon the evaluation, our management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief
Financial Officer of our General Partner, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are adequate and effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our periodic filings under the Securities and Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms.

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a)15 or Rule 15d15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended February 28, 2006 that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
