** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) This statement is being filed by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. ("GS Group"), Goldman, Sachs & Co. ("Goldman Sachs"), GSCP V Advisors, L.L.C. ("GSCP Advisors"), GSCP V Offshore Advisors, L.L.C. ("GSCP Offshore Advisors"), GS Advisors V, L.L.C. ("GS Advisors"), Goldman, Sachs Management GP GmbH ("GS GmbH"), GS Global Infrastructure Advisors 2006, L.L.C. ("GS Global Advisors"), GS Capital Partners V Fund, L.P. ("GS Capital"), GS Capital Partners V Offshore Fund, L.P. ("GS Offshore"), GS Capital Partners V GmbH & Co. KG ("GS Germany"), GS Capital Partners V Institutional, L.P. ("GS Institutional") and GS Global Infrastructure Partners I, L.P. ("GS Global Partners" and, together with GS Capital, GS Offshore and GS Germany and GS Institutional, the "Funds") (continued in next footnote).
(2) (GS Group, Goldman Sachs, GSCP Advisors, GSCP Offshore Advisors, GS Advisors, GS GmbH, GS Global Advisors and the Funds, collectively, the "Reporting Persons"). Due to the electronic system's limitation of 10 Reporting Persons per joint filing, this statement is being filed in duplicate.
(3) On May 28, 2006, Richard D. Kinder, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Kinder Morgan, Inc. (the "Company"), together with GS Capital Partners and other investors (collectively, the "Investors"), delivered a letter to the Board of Directors of the Company in which it was proposed that Mr. Kinder and funds managed by the other investors would offer to acquire by merger all of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, par value $5 per share ("Common Stock"), other than any shares held by any of the Investors and shares held by members of the Company's senior management team that are to be invested in the transaction (the "Proposal"). Affiliates of Goldman Sachs and GS Group are the general partner, managing general partner, managing partner, managing limited partner, or investment manager of the Funds.
(4) As a result of the Proposal, the Reporting Persons, together with the other investors and certain of their affiliates, may be deemed to constitute a "group", within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that beneficially owns more than 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company. This Form 4 shall not be deemed an admission that any Reporting Person is a beneficial owner of any shares of Common Stock for any purpose, other than the securities reported in Tables I of this Form 4. Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported in Table I except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, if any.
(5) The securities reported herein as indirectly sold were beneficially owned directly by Goldman Sachs. Without admitting any legal obligation, Goldman Sachs will remit appropriate profits, if any, to the Company. GS Group may be deemed to beneficially own indirectly 10,168 shares of Common Stock by reason of the direct ownership of such securities by Goldman Sachs or another direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of GS Group. Goldman Sachs is a direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of GS Group.
(6) Reflects changes due to transactions that were part of baskets that met the requirements for exemption as outlined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and therefore not reported.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
