(1) Includes transaction costs. These unusual expenses are settled in cash.(2) The amortization of favorable and unfavorable contracts relates to gas gathering agreements that were deemed to be above or below market at the acquisition of the DFW Midstream system. We amortize these contracts on a units-of-production basis over the

life of the applicable contract. The life of the contract is the period over which the contract is expected to contribute directly or indirectly to our future cash flows. (3) Adjustments related to MVC shortfall payments account for (i) the net increases or decreases in deferred revenue for MVC shortfall payments and (ii) our inclusion of future expected annual MVC shortfall payments. (4) In connection with the decline in commodity prices during the fourth quarter of 2014, we reevaluated the carrying value, including goodwill, of the Bison Midstream gathering system and recognized a goodwill impairment for the decline in the fair value of the

underlying reporting unit relative to its carrying value.(5) During the fourth quarter of 2014, we reviewed certain property, plant and equipment balances associated with a compressor station project on our DFW Midstream system that was terminated and wrote off approximately $5.5 million of costs. The impact of

this write off is reflected in long-lived asset impairment.(6) During the fourth quarter of 2014, we identified and wrote off certain balances previously recognized in connection with the purchase accounting for the Legacy Grand River system. This write off was recognized as a $1.2 million increase to other income.
