Explanation of Responses:
1. The securities reported on this Form 4 are held directly by DCP LP Holdings, LLC (formerly known as DCP LP Holdings, LP), a Delaware limited liability company ("DCP Holdings"). DCP Midstream, LLC (formerly known as Duke Energy Field Services, LLC), is the general partner of DCP Holdings.
2. Each Subordinated Unit will convert into one Common Unit.
3. Each Subordinated Unit will convert into one Common Unit at the end of the subordination period, which will end once the Issuer meets the financial tests contained in the Issuer's partnership agreement. If the tests for ending the subordination period are satisfied for any two consecutive four-quarter periods ending on or after December 31, 2007, 50% of the Subordinated Units will convert into an equal number of Common Units. The other 50% of the Subordinated Units will convert into an equal number of Common Units one year following the conversion of the first 50%, provided the additional financial tests for ending the subordination period contained in the partnership agreement are satisfied.
4. 3,571,428 Subordinated Units converted into Common Units on a one-for-one basis for no additional consideration on February 18, 2008, after the Issuer satisfied the financial tests for early conversion of 50% of the outstanding Subordinated Units set forth in the Issuer's partnership agreement.
