Departure
                of Directors or Certain
                Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers;
                Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On
      April
      15, 2008, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors ("the Committee")
      of Eagle Rock Energy GP, L.P. ("the Company") approved an increase, effective
      beginning with pay period April 1, 2008 through April 15, 2008 and continuing
      thereafter, to the current base salary for the Company's Chairman & Chief
      Executive Officer, Joseph A. Mills, along with the other members of senior
      management of the Company.  In this action, Mr. Mills' annual base
      salary was adjusted from $250,000 to $400,000, representing a market adjustment,
      whereas the other named executive officers received merit increases, ranging
      from 5% to 10%.
On
      April
      4, 2008 and April 7, 2008, the Committee received a final presentation by Towers
      Perrin regarding its 2008 Executive Compensation Review for the Company as
      the
      culmination of several meetings and various discussions among the Compensation
      Committee and Towers Perrin, as well as the observations and experiences of
      the
      Committee members.  Based upon practices and trends noted by Towers
      Perrin to be the current standard within public company peer groups, the
      Committee determined that the Company was below market with respect to
      compensation of Mr. Mills and determined that the other named executive officers
      were deserving of merit increases.  As a result, the Committee took
      the aforementioned action to increase the base salaries of Mr. Mills and the
      other named executive officers.
