Item 8.01. Other Events

On October 24, 2005, the Company entered into a long-term agreement, dated October 18, 2005, with CenterPoint Energy Gas Transmission Company (“CEGT”), committing to firm gas transportation capacity for a ten-year period commencing upon completion of a new 168-mile pipeline between the Carthage Hub in East Texas and the Perryville Hub in northeast Louisiana to be built by CEGT. XTO Energy has contracted to deliver 600,000 MMBtu per day of gas for ten years and will pay a minimum monthly demand fee of $2.6 million plus fuel ranging from 0.8% to 1.6% depending on the receipt points and other conditions. The pipeline is currently anticipated to be completed as early as the winter of 2006-2007. The agreement accommodates the Company’s production growth across north and east Texas and helps secure the firm transportation needed to access markets in the eastern United States.
