***Operating      Revenue***
**.**

| ·   | A                $17.3 million increase in LNG terminalling revenue due to expanded                vaporization capacity, a base capacity increase on the BG LNG Services                contract and higher volumes resulting from an increase in cargoes; |
|--------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| ·   | Increased                transportation and storage revenue of $7.3 million due to higher                reservation revenues of $4.2 million which were primarily driven                by higher                average rates on contracts, higher parking revenues of $3.1 million                and                higher storage revenue of $1.7 million due to increased contracted                capacity. These increases were partially offset by lower usage revenues                of                $1.7 million primarily on Sea Robin resulting from the impact of                the                hurricanes that occurred in the third quarter of 2005;                and |
|--------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| ·   | Increased                other revenue of $2.9 million primarily due to non-recurring operational                sales of gas in 2006. |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

***Operating      Expenses.***

| ·   | An                increase in operation, maintenance and general expenses of $4.6 million                primarily due to approximately $1.8 million of higher pipeline assessment                costs and approximately $1.8 million of higher maintenance project                costs,                higher corporate charges of $1.4 million primarily due to higher                service                costs and $801,000 of higher fuel and electric power tracker costs,                partially offset by a $2.1 million decrease in benefit costs primarily                related to lower postretirement benefit expenses and lower medical                claims                accruals; and |
|--------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| ·   | Increased                depreciation and amortization expense of $3.3 million due to an increase                in property, plant and equipment placed in service, including the                LNG                Phase I and Phase II expansions. |

***Operating      Revenue.***

| ·   | A                $37.1 million increase in LNG terminalling revenue due to expanded                vaporization capacity, a base capacity increase on the BG LNG Services                contract and higher volumes resulting from an increase in                cargoes; |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| ·   | Increased                transportation and storage revenue of $15.7 million due to higher                reservation revenues of $12.9 million which were primarily driven                by                higher average rates on contracts, higher parking revenues of $4.6                million                and higher storage revenue of $3.1 million due to increased contracted                capacity. These increases were partially offset by lower usage revenues                of                $4.9 million primarily on Sea Robin resulting from the impact of                the                hurricanes that occurred in the third quarter of 2005;                and |

| ·   | Increased                other revenue of $7.7 million primarily due to non-recurring operational                sales of gas in 2006. |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

***Operating      Expenses.***

| ·   | An                increase in operation, maintenance and general expenses of $3.6 million                primarily due to approximately $3.1 million of higher pipeline assessment                costs, approximately $2.5 million of higher maintenance project costs,                $1.4 million of lower fuel recoveries recorded on Sea Robin, $1.3                million                for inspections of facilities due to Hurricane Rita, and $1.4 million                of                higher fuel and electric power tracker costs associated with higher                LNG                cargo activity. These increases were partially offset by a $5.8 million |
