Explanatory Note

Regency Energy Partners LP. (the “Partnership”) filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2008 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 11, 2008 (“Original Filing”). The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (this “Amendment”) to (i) indicate by check mark on the cover of the Amendment that the Partnership has not filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 during the preceding 12 months, (ii) amend Item 5(a) of Part II to disclose information that was required to be disclosed in a report on Form 8-K during the period covered by this Form 10-Q, but which was not timely reported on a Form 8-K during that period and (iii) amend Item 6 of Part II to include Exhibit 3.1, Amendment No. 5 to the Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement of the Partnership, which is incorporated by reference from the late Form 8-K discussed in (ii) above.

Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this Amendment contains only the changes noted above.  Those sections or exhibits of the Original Filing that are unaffected by this Amendment are not included herein.

This Amendment continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing, and the Company has not updated the disclosure contained herein to reflect events that have occurred since the filing of the Original Filing.  Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Company’s other filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 5. Other Information

On April 7, 2008, the general partner of the Partnership executed Amendment No. 5 to the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Regency Energy Partners LP (the “Amendment”), to be effective as of January 1, 2008.  The Amendment was required to be disclosed in a report on Form 8-K during the period covered by this Form 10-Q, which was not reported during this period, but filed on August 28, 2008.

The Amendment is intended to simplify the preparation by the Partnership of annual federal income tax information reports to its unitholders on schedule K-1 and modifies the income and loss allocations (including allocations relating to incentive distribution rights) made between the General Partner and the Partnership’s unitholders after a follow-on offering of Partnership units.  The Amendment is not expected to materially change the amount of net taxable income or loss allocated to the Partnership’s unitholders or the economic rights of the Partnership’s unitholders as compared to the allocations or economic rights of the General Partner.  A copy of the Amendment is filed as an exhibit to the Partnership’s Current Report on Form 10-Q dated August 28, 2008 and is incorporated into this Form 10-Q by reference as Exhibit 3.1.
