<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;11, 2013, Regency Energy Partners LP (the &#147;Partnership&#148;) and Regency Energy Finance Corp., a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Partnership (&#147;Regency Finance&#148; and, together with the Partnership, the &#147;Issuers&#148;) completed their public offering (the &#147;Offering&#148;) of $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.750% Senior Notes due
2020 (the &#147;Notes&#148;). The Issuers received net proceeds of approximately $394.2 million from the Offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, and intend to use the net proceeds to repay borrowings
outstanding under the Partnership&#146;s revolving credit facility (the &#147;credit facility&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The terms of the Notes are governed
by an Indenture dated September&nbsp;11, 2013 (the &#147;Base Indenture&#148;), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated September&nbsp;11, 2013 (the First Supplemental Indenture&#148; and, together with the Base Indenture, the
&#147;Indenture&#148;), among the Issuers, the guarantors party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the &#147;Trustee&#148;). Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on March&nbsp;1 and September&nbsp;1 of each
year, commencing March&nbsp;1, 2014, and the Notes will mature on September&nbsp;1, 2020. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Notes are senior obligations of the Issuers
and are guaranteed on a senior basis by all of the Partnership&#146;s existing consolidated subsidiaries (except Regency Finance, Edwards Lime Gathering, LLC, ELG Oil LLC and ELG Utility LLC). The Notes and guarantees are unsecured and rank equally
with all of the Issuers&#146; and each guarantor&#146;s existing and future unsubordinated obligations, including the Issuers&#146; existing senior notes and the guarantees thereof. The Notes are senior in right of payment to any of the
Issuers&#146; and each guarantor&#146;s future obligations that are, by their terms, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and guarantees. The Notes and guarantees are effectively subordinated to the Issuers&#146; and each
guarantor&#146;s secured obligations, including indebtedness under the credit facility, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such obligations, and structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and obligations of the
Partnership&#146;s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Notes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Issuers have the option to redeem all or a portion of the Notes at
any time on or after June&nbsp;1, 2020 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Issuers may also redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a &#147;make-whole&#148; redemption
price specified in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, at any time prior to June&nbsp;1, 2020. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Upon the occurrence of a
Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture) event, which occurrence (other than one involving the adoption of a plan relating to liquidation or dissolution) is followed by a ratings decline within 90 days after the consummation of the
transaction, the Issuers may be required to offer to purchase the Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date. Additionally, if the
Partnership sells certain assets and does not apply the proceeds from the sale in a certain manner, the Issuers must use certain excess proceeds to offer to repurchase the Notes at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid
interest to the repurchase date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Indenture contains customary events of default (each an &#147;Event of Default&#148;). Under the
Indenture, Events of Default include the following: </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(2) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(3) failure by the Partnership or any guarantor to comply with their obligations to make or consummate a change of control offer or asset sale
offer or to comply with any of their agreements or covenants relating to a merger, consolidation or sale of assets; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(4) failure by the
Partnership for 90 days after notice to comply with its obligations to furnish the holders of the Notes and the Trustee certain reports; </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(5) failure by the Partnership or any guarantor to comply with their other covenants or
agreements in the Indenture for 60&nbsp;days after written notice; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(6) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which
there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for money borrowed by the Partnership or any of its restricted subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Partnership or any of its restricted
subsidiaries) whether the indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the issue date of the Notes, if that default (A)&nbsp;is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the indebtedness prior to the
expiration of the grace period provided in the indebtedness on the date of the default (a &#147;Payment Default&#148;) or (B)&nbsp;results in the acceleration of the indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case, the principal amount
of any of the indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $20.0&nbsp;million or more, subject to certain
exceptions; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(7) failure by the Issuers or the Partnership&#146;s restricted subsidiaries to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of
$20.0 million, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(8) any guarantee is held in any judicial
proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under its guarantee; and </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(9) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuers or any of the Partnership&#146;s significant subsidiaries or any
group of the Partnership&#146;s restricted subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a significant subsidiary. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If an Event of
Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and accrued and unpaid
interest on all of the Notes will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to the Issuers or any of the Partnership&#146;s significant subsidiaries or
any group of the Partnership&#146;s restricted subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a significant subsidiary, occurs and is continuing, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice on
the part of the Trustee or any holders of the Notes. Under certain circumstances, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The foregoing description of the Notes and the Indenture do not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
full text of the Base Indenture and the First Supplemental Indenture, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 4.2, respectively. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
5.750% Senior Notes due 2020
On September 11, 2013, Regency Energy Partners LP (the "Partnership") and Regency Energy Finance Corp., a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Partnership ("Regency Finance" and, together with the Partnership, the "Issuers") completed their public offering (the "Offering") of $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.750% Senior Notes due
2020 (the "Notes"). The Issuers received net proceeds of approximately $394.2 million from the Offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, and intend to use the net proceeds to repay borrowings
outstanding under the Partnership's revolving credit facility (the "credit facility").
The terms of the Notes are governed
by an Indenture dated September 11, 2013 (the "Base Indenture"), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated September 11, 2013 (the First Supplemental Indenture" and, together with the Base Indenture, the
"Indenture"), among the Issuers, the guarantors party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each
year, commencing March 1, 2014, and the Notes will mature on September 1, 2020.
The Notes are senior obligations of the Issuers
and are guaranteed on a senior basis by all of the Partnership's existing consolidated subsidiaries (except Regency Finance, Edwards Lime Gathering, LLC, ELG Oil LLC and ELG Utility LLC). The Notes and guarantees are unsecured and rank equally
with all of the Issuers' and each guarantor's existing and future unsubordinated obligations, including the Issuers' existing senior notes and the guarantees thereof. The Notes are senior in right of payment to any of the
Issuers' and each guarantor's future obligations that are, by their terms, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and guarantees. The Notes and guarantees are effectively subordinated to the Issuers' and each
guarantor's secured obligations, including indebtedness under the credit facility, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such obligations, and structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and obligations of the
Partnership's subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Notes.
The Issuers have the option to redeem all or a portion of the Notes at
any time on or after June 1, 2020 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Issuers may also redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a "make-whole" redemption
price specified in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, at any time prior to June 1, 2020.
Upon the occurrence of a
Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture) event, which occurrence (other than one involving the adoption of a plan relating to liquidation or dissolution) is followed by a ratings decline within 90 days after the consummation of the
transaction, the Issuers may be required to offer to purchase the Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date. Additionally, if the
Partnership sells certain assets and does not apply the proceeds from the sale in a certain manner, the Issuers must use certain excess proceeds to offer to repurchase the Notes at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid
interest to the repurchase date.
The Indenture contains customary events of default (each an "Event of Default"). Under the
Indenture, Events of Default include the following:
(1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes;
(2) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes;
(3) failure by the Partnership or any guarantor to comply with their obligations to make or consummate a change of control offer or asset sale
offer or to comply with any of their agreements or covenants relating to a merger, consolidation or sale of assets;
(4) failure by the
Partnership for 90 days after notice to comply with its obligations to furnish the holders of the Notes and the Trustee certain reports;
(5) failure by the Partnership or any guarantor to comply with their other covenants or
agreements in the Indenture for 60 days after written notice;
(6) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which
there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for money borrowed by the Partnership or any of its restricted subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Partnership or any of its restricted
subsidiaries) whether the indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the issue date of the Notes, if that default (A) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the indebtedness prior to the
expiration of the grace period provided in the indebtedness on the date of the default (a "Payment Default") or (B) results in the acceleration of the indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case, the principal amount
of any of the indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $20.0 million or more, subject to certain
exceptions;
(7) failure by the Issuers or the Partnership's restricted subsidiaries to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of
$20.0 million, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days;
(8) any guarantee is held in any judicial
proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under its guarantee; and
(9) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuers or any of the Partnership's significant subsidiaries or any
group of the Partnership's restricted subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a significant subsidiary.
If an Event of
Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and accrued and unpaid
interest on all of the Notes will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to the Issuers or any of the Partnership's significant subsidiaries or
any group of the Partnership's restricted subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a significant subsidiary, occurs and is continuing, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice on
the part of the Trustee or any holders of the Notes. Under certain circumstances, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences.
The foregoing description of the Notes and the Indenture do not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
full text of the Base Indenture and the First Supplemental Indenture, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 4.2, respectively.
