Exhibit 99.1

Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information
 
These unaudited pro forma combined financial statements have been prepared to reflect the contribution of Southern Union Gathering Company (“SUGS”) to Regency Energy Partners LP (the “Partnership”).  On February 27, 2013, the Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership, Southern Union Company (the “Contributor”), Regency Western G&P LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership, ETP Holdco Corporation, Energy Transfer Equity, L.P., Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. and ETC Texas Pipeline, Ltd. entered into a Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”), pursuant to which the Contributor has agreed to contribute to the Partnership (the “Contribution”) all of the issued and outstanding membership interests in SUGS and its subsidiaries. The Contribution Agreement was previously reported in Regency’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 27, 2013.  The contribution consideration of $1.5 billion to be paid by the Partnership will be funded $750 million through the issuance of Partnership common units, $150 million through the issuance of Partnership Class F common units and $600 million in cash.

The contribution of SUGS from the Contributor to the Partnership is a transaction between entities under common control.  Accordingly, the Partnership has recorded the assets and liabilities of SUGS at their historical carrying value in a manner similar to a pooling of interests for all periods in which common control exists (March 26, 2012 forward) following the guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations.

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet reflects the transaction described above and the pro forma adjustments as though the Contribution occurred on December 31, 2012, while the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations reflects the transaction and the pro forma adjustments as though the Contribution occurred as of January 1, 2012.  The pro forma adjustments were prepared applying the rules established by the Securities and Exchange Commission in Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

The historical financial information included in the column entitled “Partnership” was derived from the audited financial statements included in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The historical financial information included in the columns entitled “SUGS” was derived from SUGS’ audited financial statements included in this Current Report at Exhibit 99.2.
 
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is based on assumptions that the Partnership believes are reasonable under the circumstances and are intended for informational purposes only. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used. The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of the financial results that would have occurred if these transactions had taken place on the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of future consolidated results.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Consolidated Financial Information

The following notes discuss the columns presented and the entries made to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information.

Partnership
This column represents the historical audited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 and the related statement of operations of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2012.  These financial statements were derived from the Partnership’s audited financial statements as reported in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

SUGS
This column represents the historical audited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 and the related statement of operations of SUGS for the periods from Acquisition (March 26, 2012) to December 31, 2012 and from January 1, 2012 to March 25, 2012.  These financial statements were derived from SUGS’ audited financial statements included herein as Exhibit 99.2 in this Current Report.

Pro Forma Adjustments
a. Represents the funding received by the Partnership for the $1.5 billion contribution consideration to be paid, consisting of $600 million long-term debt, $750 million in Partnership common units, and $150 million in Partnership Class F common units.
 
b. Represents the payment of contribution consideration to the holders of the Partnership common units and the Partnership Class F common units issued due to the transaction.

c. Represents the allocation of SUGS issued and outstanding membership interests to the holders of Partnership common units and Partnership Class F common units issued due to the transaction.  SUGS membership interest was converted to Partnership common units and Partnership Class F common units.

d. Represents the elimination of the deferred tax liability to the General Partner interest as a deemed contribution as the contribution consideration was less than SUGS historical asset value.  Upon the closing of the Contribution Agreement, SUGS tax status will change, causing the Partnership to derecognize the deferred tax liability through the Statement of Operations as a benefit to income tax expense, based on the requirements of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").
 
e. Represents the elimination of the outstanding value in other comprehensive income related to SUGS cash flow hedges.  As provided in Section 5.17 of the Contribution Agreement, all hedges shall be terminated on or prior to the closing of the transaction, therefore, this adjustment assumes that the OCI balance was charged to the income statement.

f. Represents the elimination of the $10 million annual management fee paid by the Partnership to ETE.  The Contribution Agreement in effect amended the Services Agreement between ETE Services Company, LLC, Energy Transfer Equity, L.P. and the Partnership dated May 26, 2010, to eliminate the $10 million annual management fee for two years post-transaction close.

g. Represents the incremental interest expense incurred for the year ended December 31, 2012 on the additional borrowings assuming the Partnership issued Senior Notes with a 5.5% interest rate, consistent with the Senior Notes issued in October 2012.  If the estimated interest rate varied by 0.125% in either direction, there would be a $750,000 impact on the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations.

h. Represents the adjustment to decrease the SUGS predecessor period depreciation expense to reflect the impact of the March 2012 acquisition of SUGS by ETE.
