Item 1.01.                                          Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Crosstex Energy, Inc. (the “Registrant”) owns the two percent general partner interest, a 22 percent limited partner interest and the incentive distribution rights of Crosstex Energy, L.P. (the “Partnership”).

On August 30, 2012, the Partnership entered into a Sixth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”), which amended that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 10, 2010 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Partnership, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer, and the other lenders party thereto, as amended by First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 2, 2011 (the “First Amendment”), Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 11, 2011 (the “Second Amendment”), Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of January 24, 2012 (the “Third Amendment”), Fourth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Facility, dated as of May 23, 2012 (the “Fourth Amendment”), and Fifth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of August 3, 2012 (the “Fifth Amendment,” and, together with the Credit Agreement, the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Third Amendment, the Fourth Amendment and the Credit Agreement Amendment, the “Amended Credit Agreement”). A copy of the Credit Agreement Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”).

The Credit Agreement Amendment amends the Credit Agreement to permit the Partnership to include projected EBITDA from material projects (as defined in the Credit Agreement Amendment, but generally being the construction or expansion of any capital project by the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries that is expected to cost more than $20.0 million and the Partnership’s “Riverside Phase II” project) in its EBITDA for purposes of calculating compliance with the Amended Credit Agreement’s minimum interest coverage ratio, maximum leverage ratio and maximum senior leverage ratio.  The amount of projected EBITDA from material projects that is included in such financial covenant calculations is subject to the Administrative Agent’s approval, and it will be based on contracts related to the material project, expected expenses, the completion percentage of the material project, the expected commercial operation date of the material project, and other factors deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent, all as more fully set forth in the Credit Agreement Amendment.

Upon the closing of the Credit Agreement Amendment, the Partnership had approximately $62.5 million of outstanding borrowings and $62.4 million of outstanding letters of credit under the Amended Credit Agreement, leaving the Partnership with approximately $510.1 million available capacity for additional borrowings and letters of credit under the Amended Credit Agreement.

The description set forth above is qualified in its entirety by (i) the Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Partnership’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 16, 2010, (ii) the First Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Partnership’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 3, 2011, (iii) the Second Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Partnership’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 12, 2011, (iv) the Third
