Diversity and Scale Mitigate Commodity Price Changes
Growth has been driven by investing in the
business, not by changes in commodity prices
TRP benefits from multiple factors that help
mitigate commodity price volatility, including:
Scale
Business and geographic diversity
Increasing fee-based margin
Hedging
Given the current price environment, TRP is
less hedged than in previous years, primarily
on ethane and propane
TRP currently has hedged approximately 80% of
2014 natural gas and approximately 30% of 2014
combined NGL and condensate
TRP has hedged approximately 50% to 60% of
natural gas equity volumes for 2015     and 20%
to 30% for 2016
(1)
TRP has hedged approximately 45% to 55% of
condensate equity volumes for 2015 and 25% to
35% for 2016

Non-GAAP Measures Reconciliation
This presentation includes the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA. The presentation provides a
reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measures to its most directly comparable financial measure
calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America ("GAAP"). Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP
measures such as net income, operating income, net cash flows provided by operating activities or any other
GAAP measure of liquidity or financial performance.

Non-GAAP Measures Reconciliation
Adjusted EBITDA – The Partnership and Targa define Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to Targa
Resources Partners LP before: interest; income taxes; depreciation and amortization; gains or losses on debt
repurchases and redemptions; early debt extinguishment and asset disposals; non-cash risk management
activities related to derivative instruments; changes in the fair value of the Badlands acquisition contingent
consideration and the non-controlling interest portion of depreciation and amortization expenses. Adjusted
EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by our management and by external users of our
financial statements such as investors, commercial banks and others. The economic substance behind
management’s use of Adjusted EBITDA is to measure the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to
pay interest costs, support our indebtedness and make distributions to our investors. 
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to
Adjusted EBITDA are net cash provided by operating activities and net income (loss) attributable to Targa
Resources Partners LP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net cash
provided by operating activities or GAAP net income. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an
analytical tool. Investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our
results as reported under GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net
income and net cash provided by operating activities and is defined differently by different companies in our
industry, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other
companies.  
Management compensates for the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool by reviewing the
comparable GAAP measures, understanding the differences between the measures and incorporating these
insights into management’s decision-making processes.
