     On September 10, 2008, Standard & Poor’s Rating Services (“S&P”) announced that it assigned its BB- corporate credit rating to Regency Energy Partners L.P. (the “Partnership”) and withdrew its BB- corporate credit rating on operating subsidiary Regency Gas Services L.P. (“RGS”). S&P withdrew its credit rating on RGS and assigned it to the Partnership due to its expectation that all future debt issuances will occur at the Partnership. S&P has also revised its ratings outlook on the Partnership to negative from stable.
