Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report includes forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are identified as any statement that does not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection,” “forecast,” “strategy,” “position,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” or the negative of those terms or other variations of them or comparable terminology. In particular, expressed or implied statements concerning future actions, conditions or events, future operating results or the ability to generate sales, income or cash flow or to pay dividends are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Future actions, conditions or events and future results of operations may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results are beyond our ability to control or predict.

See “Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (2017 Form 10-K) for a more detailed description of factors that may affect the forward-looking statements. You should keep these risk factors in mind when considering forward-looking statements. These risk factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Because of these risks and uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. We plan to provide updates to projections included in this report when we believe previously disclosed projections no longer have a reasonable basis.

KINDER MORGAN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1.  General
 
Organization

We are one of the largest energy infrastructure companies in North America. We own an interest in or operate approximately 85,000 miles of pipelines and 152 terminals. Our pipelines transport natural gas, refined petroleum products, crude oil, condensate, CO2 and other products, and our terminals transload and store liquid commodities including petroleum products, ethanol and chemicals, and bulk products, including petroleum coke, metals and ores.

Basis of Presentation
 
General

Our reporting currency is U.S. dollars, and all references to dollars are U.S. dollars, unless stated otherwise. Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These rules and regulations conform to the accounting principles contained in the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification, the single source of GAAP. Under such rules and regulations, all significant intercompany items have been eliminated in consolidation.

In our opinion, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair statement of our financial position and operating results for the interim periods have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year; accordingly, you should read these consolidated financial statements in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2017 Form 10-K.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our subsidiaries over which we have control or are the primary beneficiary. We evaluate our financial interests in business enterprises to determine if they represent variable interest entities where we are the primary beneficiary.  If such criteria are met, we consolidate the financial statements of such businesses with those of our own.

Accounting Policy Changes

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Updates (ASU) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and a series of related accounting standard updates designed to create improved revenue recognition and disclosure comparability in financial statements.  For more information, see Note 8.

On January 1, 2018, we retroactively adopted ASU No. 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This ASU requires the statements of cash flows to present the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are now included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning of period and end of period amounts presented on the statements of cash flows. The retrospective application of this new accounting guidance resulted in a decrease of $37 million in “Other, net” in Cash Flows from Investing Activities, an increase of $103 million in “Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Deposits, beginning of the period,” and an increase of $66 million in “Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Deposits, end of period” in our accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from what was previously presented in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017.
Amounts included in the restricted deposits in the accompanying consolidated financial statements represent a combination of restricted cash amounts required to be set aside by regulatory agencies to cover obligations for our captive and other insurance subsidiaries, and cash margin deposits posted by us with our counterparties associated with certain energy commodity contract positions.


10


On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2017-05, “Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets.”  This ASU clarifies the scope and application of ASC 610-20 on contracts for the sale or transfer of  nonfinancial assets and in substance nonfinancial assets to noncustomers, including partial sales. This ASU also clarifies that the derecognition of all businesses is in the scope of ASC 810 and defines an “in substance nonfinancial asset.” We utilized the modified retrospective method to adopt the provisions of this ASU, which required us to apply the new standard to (i) all new contracts entered into after January 1, 2018, and (ii) to contracts that were not completed contracts as of January 1, 2018 through a cumulative adjustment to our “Retained deficit” balance. The cumulative effect of the adoption of this ASU was a $66 million, net of income taxes, adjustment to our “Retained deficit” balance as presented in our consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2018.  This ASU also requires us to classify EIG’s cumulative contribution to ELC as mezzanine equity, which we have included as “Redeemable noncontrolling interest” on our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018, as EIG has the right under certain conditions to redeem their interests for cash. The December 31, 2017 balance of $485 million is included in “Other long-term liabilities and deferred credits” on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017.

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2017-07, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715).” This ASU requires an employer to disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost, allows only the service cost component of net benefit cost to be eligible for capitalization and establishes how to present the service cost component and the other components of net benefit cost in the income statement. Topic 715 required us to retrospectively reclassify $4 million and $7 million of other components of net benefit credits (excluding the service cost component) from “General and administrative” to “Other, net” in our accompanying consolidated statement of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. We prospectively applied Topic 715 related to net benefit costs eligible for capitalization.

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2018-02, “Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.”  Our accounting policy for the release of stranded tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive income is on an aggregate portfolio basis. This ASU permits companies to reclassify the income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Reform on items within accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings.  The FASB refers to these amounts as “stranded tax effects.”  Only the stranded tax effects resulting from the 2017 Tax Reform are eligible for reclassification.  The adoption of this ASU resulted in a $109 million reclassification adjustment of stranded income effects from “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” to “Retained deficit” on our consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Impairments and Losses on Divestitures, net

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized (i) a $600 million non-cash impairment loss associated with certain gathering and processing assets in Oklahoma within our Natural Gas Pipelines business segment; (ii) a $60 million non-cash impairment related to certain Terminal business segment assets; (iii) a non-cash impairment of $270 million of our equity investment in Gulf LNG Holdings Group, LLC (Gulf LNG); and (iv) a gain of $7 million related to miscellaneous asset disposals.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we recorded losses on impairments and divestitures netting to $6 million related to miscellaneous asset disposals.

The $600 million non-cash impairment was driven by reduced cash flow estimates for some of our gathering and processing assets in Oklahoma during the period as a result of our decision to redirect our focus to other areas of our portfolio. These reduced estimates triggered an impairment analysis as we determined that our carrying value may no longer be recoverable. The impairment analysis for long-lived assets was based upon a two-step process as prescribed in the accounting standards. Step 1 involved comparing the undiscounted future cash flows to be derived from the asset group to the carrying value of the asset group. Based on the results of our step 1 test, we determined that the undiscounted future cash flows were less than the carrying value of the asset group. Step 2 involved using the income approach to calculate the fair value of the asset group and comparing it to the carrying value. The impairment that we recorded represented the difference between the fair and carrying values.

The $270 million non-cash impairment in our equity investment in Gulf LNG was driven by a ruling by an arbitration panel affecting a customer contract. Our share of earnings recognized by Gulf LNG on the respective customer contract is included in “Earnings from equity investments” in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

The estimate of fair value is based on Level 3 valuation estimates using industry standard income approach valuation methodologies, which include assumptions primarily involving management’s significant judgments and estimates with respect

11


to general economic conditions and the related demand for products handled or transported by our assets as well as assumptions regarding commodity prices, future cash flows based on rate and volume assumptions, terminal values and discount rates. We typically use discounted cash flow analyses to determine the fair value of our assets. We may probability weight various forecasted cash flow scenarios utilized in the analysis as we consider the possible outcomes. We use discount rates representing our estimate of the risk-adjusted discount rates that would be used by market participants specific to the particular asset.

We may identify additional triggering events requiring future evaluations of the recoverability of the carrying value of our long-lived assets, investments and goodwill. Because certain assets and investments have been written down to fair value in the last few years, any deterioration in fair value relative to our carrying value increases the likelihood of further impairments. Such non-cash impairments could have a significant effect on our results of operations, which would be recognized in the period in which the carrying value is determined to be not fully recoverable.

Goodwill

In addition to periodically evaluating long-lived assets for impairment based on changes in market conditions as discussed above, we evaluate goodwill for impairment on May 31 of each year. For this purpose, we have seven reporting units as follows: (i) Products Pipelines (excluding associated terminals); (ii) Products Pipelines Terminals (evaluated separately from Products Pipelines for goodwill purposes); (iii) Natural Gas Pipelines Regulated; (iv) Natural Gas Pipelines Non-Regulated; (v) CO2; (vi) Terminals; and (vii) Kinder Morgan Canada. The evaluation of goodwill for impairment involves a two-step test.

The results of our May 31, 2018 annual step 1 impairment test indicated that for each of our reporting units, the reporting unit fair value exceeded the carrying value, and step 2 was not required. A new period of volatile commodity prices could result in a deterioration of market multiples, comparable sales transactions prices, weighted average costs of capital and our cash flow estimates. Changes to any one or combination of these factors would result in a change to the reporting unit fair values discussed above, which could lead to future impairment charges. Such potential impairment could have a material effect on our results of operations.
    
The fair value estimates used in step 1 of the goodwill test are based on Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. The level 3 inputs include valuation estimates using industry standard market and income approach valuation methodologies which include assumptions primarily involving management’s significant judgments and estimates with respect to market multiples, comparable sales transactions prices, weighted average costs of capital, general economic conditions and the related demand for products handled or transported by our assets as well as assumptions regarding commodity prices, future cash flows based on rate and volume assumptions, terminal values and discount rates. We use primarily a market approach and, in some instances where deemed necessary, also use discounted cash flow analyses to determine the fair value of our assets. We use discount rates representing our estimate of the risk-adjusted discount rates that would be used by market participants specific to the particular reporting unit.

Earnings per Share
 
We calculate earnings per share using the two-class method. Earnings were allocated to Class P shares and participating securities based on the amount of dividends paid in the current period plus an allocation of the undistributed earnings or excess distributions over earnings to the extent that each security participates in earnings or excess distributions over earnings. Our unvested restricted stock awards, which may be restricted stock or restricted stock units issued to employees and non-employee directors and include dividend equivalent payments, do not participate in excess distributions over earnings.

On May 25, 2017, approximately 293 million unexercised warrants expired without the issuance of Class P common stock. Prior to expiration, each warrant entitled the holder to purchase one share of our common stock for an exercise price of $40 per share. The potential dilutive effect of the warrants did not consider the assumed proceeds to KMI upon exercise.
(b)
Until our mandatory convertible preferred shares are converted to common shares, on or before the expected mandatory conversion date of October 26, 2018, the holder of each preferred share participates in our earnings by receiving preferred stock dividends.

2. Divestitures

Pending Sale of Trans Mountain Pipeline System and Its Expansion Project

On May 29, 2018, KML announced that the Government of Canada has agreed to purchase from KML the TMPL, the TMEP, Puget Sound pipeline system and Kinder Morgan Canada Inc., the Canadian employer of our staff that operate the business and assets to be sold, for C$4.5 billion (the “Transaction”), subject to certain adjustments as provided in the share and unit purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”).

As part of the Purchase Agreement, the Government of Canada has agreed to fund the resumption of the TMEP planning and construction work by guaranteeing TMEP's borrowings under a separately created temporary credit facility for such expenditures until the Transaction closes. (See Note 4 for information on KML’s temporary credit facilities).

The Transaction is expected to close late in the third quarter or early in the fourth quarter of 2018, subject to KML’s shareholder and applicable regulatory approvals. The assets to be sold will be classified as assets held for sale upon KML shareholder approval, and the Transaction is expected to result in a gain. The use of proceeds from the sale of the TMPL and the TMEP is a KML board decision. We intend to use any proceeds we receive in respect of our interest in KML to pay down debt.

May 2017 Sale of Approximate 30% Interest in Canadian Business

On May 30, 2017, KML completed an IPO of 102,942,000 restricted voting shares listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange at a price to the public of C$17.00 per restricted voting share for total gross proceeds of approximately C$1,750 million (US$1,299 million). The net proceeds from the IPO were used by KML to indirectly acquire from us an approximate 30% interest

13


in a limited partnership that holds our Canadian business while we retained the remaining 70% interest. We used the proceeds from KML’s IPO to pay down debt.

February 2017 Sale of Noncontrolling Interest in ELC

Effective February 28, 2017, we sold a 49% partnership interest in ELC to investment funds managed by EIG Global Energy Partners (EIG). We continue to own a 51% controlling interest in and operate ELC. Under the terms of ELC’s limited liability company agreement, we are responsible for placing in service and operating certain supply pipelines and terminal facilities that support the operations of ELC and that are wholly owned by us. In certain limited circumstances that are not expected to occur, EIG has the right to relinquish its interest in ELC and redeem its capital account. The sale proceeds of $386 million, and subsequent EIG contributions, have been reflected as of June 30, 2018 within “Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest” and as of December 31, 2017 as a deferred credit within “Other long-term liabilities and deferred credits”, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets. Once these contingencies expire, EIG’s capital account will be reflected in “Noncontrolling interests” on our consolidated balance sheet.

3. Investments

Our investments primarily consist of equity investments where we hold significant influence over investee actions and for which we apply the equity method of accounting. Summarized combined financial information for our single significant equity investment is reported below (in millions; amounts represent 100% of investee financial information):

In addition to all unamortized debt discount/premium amounts, debt issuance costs and purchase accounting on our debt balances, our debt fair value adjustments also include amounts associated with the offsetting entry for hedged debt and any unamortized portion of proceeds received from the early termination of interest rate swap agreements.

We and substantially all of our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries are a party to a cross guarantee agreement whereby each party to the agreement unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, the payment of specified indebtedness of each other party to the agreement. Also, see Note 13.

Credit Facilities

KMI
 
As of June 30, 2018, we had $350 million outstanding under our credit facility, $140 million outstanding under our commercial paper program and $99 million in letters of credit. Our availability under our $5 billion credit facility as of June 30, 2018 was $4,411 million. As of June 30, 2018, we were in compliance with all required covenants.

KML

Pursuant to the Transaction described in Note 2, on May 30, 2018, approximately C$100 million of borrowings outstanding under KML’s June 16, 2017 revolving credit facilities (the “KML 2017 Credit Facility”) were repaid, the underlying credit

15


facilities were terminated, and we wrote off approximately $46 million of deferred costs associated with the KML 2017 Credit Facility that were being amortized as interest expense over its term.

On May 30, 2018 and concurrently with the termination of the KML 2017 Credit Facility, KML completed a credit agreement with Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto (the “KML 2018 Credit Agreement”) establishing a C$500 million revolving credit facility (the “KML 2018 Credit Facility”), for general corporate purposes, including working capital. The approximate C$100 million of borrowings outstanding under the terminated KML 2017 Credit Facility were repaid pursuant to an initial drawdown under the KML 2018 Credit Facility.
    
The KML 2018 Credit Facility will mature on the earlier of (i) the date of the closing of the Transaction or (ii) May 29, 2020. Depending on the type of loan requested by us, interest on loans outstanding will be calculated based on (i) a Canadian prime rate of interest plus 0.20% per annum; (ii) a U.S. base rate of interest plus 0.20% per annum; (iii) London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 1.20% per annum; or (iv) bankers’ acceptance fees and 1.20% per annum. Standby fees for the unused portion of the KML 2018 Credit Facility will be calculated based on a rate of 0.24% per annum.
 
The KML 2018 Credit Agreement contains various financial and other covenants that apply to KML and its subsidiaries and that are common in such agreements, including a maximum ratio of KML’s consolidated total funded debt to its consolidated capitalization of 70% and restrictions on KML’s ability to incur debt, grant liens, make dispositions (although the Transaction is specifically permitted), engage in transactions with affiliates, make restricted payments, make investments, enter into sale leaseback transactions, amend organizational documents and engage in corporate reorganization transactions.
 
In addition, the KML 2018 Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including non-payment; non-compliance with covenants (in some cases, subject to grace periods); payment default under, or acceleration events affecting, certain other indebtedness; bankruptcy or insolvency events involving KML or guarantors; and changes of control. If an event of default under the KML 2018 Credit Agreement exists and is continuing, the lenders could terminate their commitments and accelerate the maturity of the outstanding obligations under the KML 2018 Credit Agreement.

On June 14, 2018, KML’s and our subsidiary, TMPL, as the borrower, entered into new, non-revolving, unsecured construction credit agreement (the “TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement”) among TMPL, Royal Bank of Canada (“RBC”), as administrative agent (“Agent”), and The Toronto-Dominion Bank (together with RBC, the “Lenders”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to approximately C$1 billion to facilitate the resumption of the TMEP planning and construction work until the closing of the Transaction.  The TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement provides for a maturity date on the earliest to occur of (i) completion of the Transaction or another disposition of KML’s interest in the entities or material assets that are subject to the Transaction; (ii) termination of the Purchase Agreement; (iii) assignment by KML of its rights and obligations under the Purchase Agreement; or (iv) December 31, 2018.
 
The payment obligations of TMPL to the Agent and the Lenders under the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Her Majesty in Right of Canada (“TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantor”) pursuant to an unconditional and irrevocable guarantee (“TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantee”). The TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement is non-recourse to TMPL, its subsidiaries, KML or KMI, or any of their respective property, assets and undertakings; the Agent and the Lenders’ sole recourse is to the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantor under the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantee.
 
In connection with the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement and the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantee, TMPL’s, KML’s and our subsidiary, Kinder Morgan Cochin ULC (“KMCU”), entered into an indemnity agreement (the “Indemnity Agreement”) in favor of the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantor obligating TMPL to reimburse and indemnify the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantor for amounts paid under and pursuant to the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantee in certain very limited circumstances. In addition, the Indemnity Agreement includes, for the benefit of the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantor, limited rights to indemnification in the event of inaccuracies in certain representations, or the failure of KMCU to perform certain covenants, under the Purchase Agreement.  Except for the indemnities referred to in this paragraph and certain other limited exceptions, the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantor has no recourse to TMPL or KMCU under the Indemnity Agreement.
 
As security for TMPL’s and KMCU’s limited recourse obligations under the Indemnity Agreement, TMPL and its subsidiaries granted second ranking security in favor of the TMPL Non-recourse Credit Agreement Guarantor against their respective assets, and KMCU granted a limited recourse pledge of its equity in TMPL and the general partner thereof.

As of June 30, 2018, KML had C$313 million (U.S. $238 million) available under the KML 2018 Credit Facility, after reducing the C$500 million (U.S.$380 million) capacity for the C$133.0 million (U.S.$101 million) outstanding borrowings and

the C$54 million (U.S.$41 million) in letters of credit. As of June 30, 2018, KML was in compliance with all required covenants. As of December 31, 2017, KML had no borrowings outstanding under the KML 2017 Credit Facility.

As of June 30, 2018, TMPL had C$886 million (U.S.$672 million) available under the TMPL Non-Recourse Credit Agreement, after reducing the approximate C$1 billion (U.S.$759 million) in aggregate capacity for the C$114 million (U.S.$87 million) outstanding under this credit facility. As of June 30, 2018, TMPL was in compliance with all its required covenants.

Noncontrolling Interests

KML Distributions

KML has a dividend policy pursuant to which it may pay a quarterly dividend on its restricted voting shares in an amount based on a portion of its DCF. For additional information regarding our KML distributions, see Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2017 Form 10-K.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, KML paid dividends on its Restricted Voting Shares to the public valued at$13 million and $26 million, respectively, of which $8 million and $18 million, respectively, were paid in cash. The remaining values of $5 million and $8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, were paid in

17


362,158 and 656,555 KML Restricted Voting Shares, respectively. KML also paid dividends to the public on its Series 1 and Series 3 Preferred Shares of $6 million and $10 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

6.  Risk Management
 
Certain of our business activities expose us to risks associated with unfavorable changes in the market price of natural gas, NGL and crude oil.  We also have exposure to interest rate and foreign currency risk as a result of the issuance of our debt obligations.  Pursuant to our management’s approved risk management policy, we use derivative contracts to hedge or reduce our exposure to some of these risks.

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, due to volatility in certain basis differentials, we discontinued hedge accounting on certain of our crude derivative contracts as we do not expect them to be highly effective, for accounting purposes, in offsetting the variability in cash flows. As the forecasted transactions are still probable, accumulated gains and losses remain in other comprehensive income until earnings are impacted by the forecasted transactions. Future changes in the derivative contracts’ fair value subsequent to the discontinuance of hedge accounting will be reported in earnings. We may re-designate certain of these hedging relationships if their expected effectiveness improves.

Energy Commodity Price Risk Management
 
As of June 30, 2018, we had the following outstanding commodity forward contracts to hedge our forecasted energy commodity purchases and sales: 
 
Net open position long/(short)
Derivatives designated as hedging contracts
 
 
 
Crude oil fixed price

As of June 30, 2018, the maximum length of time over which we have hedged, for accounting purposes, our exposure to the variability in future cash flows associated with energy commodity price risk is through December 2022.

Interest Rate Risk Management

 As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had a combined notional principal amount of $10,575 million and $9,575 million, respectively, of fixed-to-variable interest rate swap agreements, all of which were designated as fair value hedges. All of our swap agreements effectively convert the interest expense associated with certain series of senior notes from fixed rates to variable rates based on an interest rate of LIBOR plus a spread and have termination dates that correspond to the maturity dates of the related series of senior notes. As of June 30, 2018, the maximum length of time over which we have hedged a portion of our exposure to the variability in the value of this debt due to interest rate risk is through March 15, 2035.

Foreign Currency Risk Management

As of both June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had a combined notional principal amount of $1,358 million of cross-currency swap agreements to manage the foreign currency risk related to our Euro denominated senior notes by effectively converting all of the fixed-rate Euro denominated debt, including annual interest payments and the payment of principal at maturity, to U.S. dollar denominated debt at fixed rates equivalent to approximately 3.79% and 4.67% for the 7-year and 12-year senior notes, respectively. These cross-currency swaps are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The terms of the cross-currency swap agreements correspond to the related hedged senior notes, and such agreements have the same maturities as the hedged senior notes.

_____
(a)
We do not expect to reclassify any gain or loss associated with cash flow hedge price risk management activities included in our accumulated other comprehensive loss balances as of June 30, 2018 into earnings during the next twelve months (when the associated forecasted transactions are also expected to occur); however, actual amounts reclassified into earnings could vary materially as a result of changes in market prices. 
(b)
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized a $3 million loss as a result of our equity investment’s forecasted transactions being probable of not occurring. All other amounts reclassified were the result of the hedged forecasted transactions actually affecting earnings (i.e., when the forecasted sales and purchases actually occurred).
(c)
Amounts represent our share of an equity investee’s accumulated other comprehensive loss.

_______
(a) The three and six months ended June 30, 2018 include an approximate loss of $5 million and gain of $3 million, respectively, and the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 include approximate gains of $17 million and $29 million, respectively. These gains and losses were associated with natural gas, crude and NGL derivative contract settlements.

Credit Risks
In conjunction with certain derivative contracts, we are required to provide collateral to our counterparties, which may include posting letters of credit or placing cash in margin accounts.  As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had no outstanding letters of credit supporting our commodity price risk management program. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had cash margins of $23 million and $1 million, respectively, posted by us with our counterparties as collateral and reported within “Restricted deposits” on our accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The balance at June 30, 2018 consisted of initial margin requirements of $10 million and variation margin requirements of $13 million. We also use industry standard commercial agreements that allow for the netting of exposures associated with transactions executed under a single commercial agreement. Additionally, we generally utilize master netting agreements to offset credit exposure across multiple commercial agreements with a single counterparty.
 
We also have agreements with certain counterparties to our derivative contracts that contain provisions requiring the posting of additional collateral upon a decrease in our credit rating.  As of June 30, 2018, based on our current mark to market positions and posted collateral, we estimate that if our credit rating were downgraded one notch we would be required to post $100 million of additional collateral and $9 million of additional collateral beyond this $100 million if we were downgraded two notches.
