QUESTAR GAS COMPANY

NOTES ACCOMPANYING THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Nature of Business

Questar Corporation (Questar or the Company) is a Rockies-based integrated natural gas holding company with three subsidiaries and complementary lines of business:

- Wexpro Company (Wexpro) develops and produces natural gas on behalf of Questar Gas Company;

- Questar Pipeline Company (Questar Pipeline) operates interstate natural gas pipelines and storage facilities in the western

U. S.; and,

- Questar Gas Company (Questar Gas) provides retail natural gas distribution in Utah, Wyoming and Idaho.

Questar and its subsidiaries are headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah. Shares of Questar common stock trade on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE:STR).

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation of Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements contain the accounts of Questar and its majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and with the instructions for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Regulations S-X and S-K. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments and accruals that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for audited annual consolidated financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 as recast in Item 9.01 exhibit 99.1 of the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 30, 2010.

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes in conformity with GAAP requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from estimates. The results of operations for the three, nine and 12 months ended September 30, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010.

Questar uses the equity method to account for its investment in an unconsolidated affiliate where it does not have control, but has significant influence. White River Hub, LLC is a limited liability corporation and FERC-regulated transporter of natural gas. Questar Pipeline owns 50% of White River Hub, LLC and is the operator. Generally, the investment in White River Hub, LLC on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets equals the Company’s proportionate share of equity reported by White River Hub, LLC. Investment is assessed for possible impairment when events indicate that the fair value of the investment may be below the Company’s carrying value. When such a condition is deemed to be other than temporary, the carrying value of the investment is written down to its fair value, and the amount of the write-down is included in the determination of net income.

Effective May 18, 2010, Questar Market Resources, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Questar, merged with and into its newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary, QEP Resources, Inc. (QEP), a Delaware corporation in order to reincorporate in the State of Delaware (Reincorporation Merger).

On June 30, 2010 (Distribution Date), Questar distributed all of the shares of QEP common stock held by Questar to Questar shareholders as a tax-free, pro rata dividend (the Spinoff). This noncash dividend totaled $2,929.7 million. Each Questar shareholder received one share of QEP common stock for each share of Questar common stock held at the close of business on the record date, including fractional shares. In connection therewith and prior to the Spinoff, QEP distributed Wexpro, a wholly-owned subsidiary of QEP, by means of a dividend to Questar. In addition, Questar made a capital contribution of $250.0 million to QEP prior to the Spinoff.

The first-half 2010 and all 2009 financial information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been recast so that the basis of presentation is consistent with that of the third quarter 2010 financial information. This recast reflects the financial condition and results of operations of QEP as discontinued operations for all periods presented. For a summary of discontinued operations see

Note 3.

Questar 2010 Form 10-Q

Note 3 – Discontinued Operations

QEP operations are reflected as discontinued operations in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are summarized below:

Note 4 – Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is the sum of net income attributable to Questar as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes changes in the market value of commodity-based derivative instruments and recognition of the under-funded position of the defined benefit pension plan and other postretirement benefits (employee benefits). These transactions are not the culmination of the earnings process but result from periodically adjusting historical balances to fair value. Income or loss is recognized when the pension or other postretirement benefit costs are accrued. Comprehensive income (loss) attributable to Questar is shown below:


	3 Months Ended Sept. 30,		9 Months Ended Sept. 30,		12 Months Ended Sept. 30,

Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss)	($124.9)	($ 51.9)	($ 30.3)

Note 5 - Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income attributable to Questar by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS includes the potential increase in the number of outstanding shares that could result from the exercise of in-the-money stock options. A reconciliation of the components of basic and diluted shares used in the EPS calculation follows:


	3 Months Ended Sept. 30,		9 Months Ended Sept. 30,		12 Months Ended Sept. 30,
	2010	2009	2010	2009	2010	2009
	(in millions)
Weighted-average basic common shares outstanding	175.5	174.3	175.2	174.0	174.9	173.8
Potential number of shares issuable under the Long- Term Stock Incentive Plan	2.7	2.0	2.5	2.1	2.4	2.2
Average diluted common shares outstanding	178.2	176.3	177.7	176.1	177.3	176.0

Note 6 - Asset Retirement Obligations

Questar records asset retirement obligations (ARO) when there are legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. The fair values of retirement costs are estimated based on abandonment costs of similar properties available to field operations and depreciated over the life of the related assets. Revisions to ARO estimates result from changes in expected cash flows or material changes in estimated retirement costs. The ARO liability is adjusted to present value each period through an accretion calculation using a credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate. Income or expense resulting from the settlement of ARO liabilities is included in net gain or (loss) from asset sales on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Changes in ARO were as follows:


	2010	2009
	(recast)	(recast)
	(in millions)
ARO liability at December 31	$65.0	$58.9
Accretion	2.1	2.5
Liabilities incurred	0.7	0.4
Revisions	(8.2)	2.4
Liabilities settled	(0.2)	(0.3)
ARO liability at September 30	$59.4	$63.9

Wexpro collects from Questar Gas and deposits in trust certain funds related to estimated ARO costs. The funds are recorded in other noncurrent assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and used to satisfy retirement obligations as the properties are abandoned. The accounting treatment of reclamation activities associated with ARO for properties administered under the longstanding Wexpro Agreement is defined in a guideline letter between Wexpro and the Utah Division of Public Utilities and the staff of the Public Service Commission of Wyoming (PSCW).

Note 7 - Fair Value Measurements

Questar measures and discloses fair values in accordance with the provisions of ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures." ASC 820 establishes a fair-value hierarchy of Levels 1, 2 and 3 based on inputs with Level 1 measures calculated from the most visible inputs. Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1

Questar 2010 Form 10-Q

that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The following table discloses the fair value and related carrying amount of certain financial instruments not disclosed in other notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q:

Long-term debt, including current portion	$831.1	$956.7	$873.2	$953.9	$831.2	$895.0

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, checks outstanding in excess of cash balances, short-term debt and notes payable approximate fair value. The fair value of fixed-rate long-term debt is based on the discounted present value of cash flows using the Company's current credit-risk adjusted borrowing rates. Notes receivable and notes payable represent borrowing transactions between Questar and pre-Spinoff affiliated companies. The long-term investment consists of money market and short-term bond index mutual funds, and represents funds held in Wexpro's trust (see Note 6). The fair value of the long-term investment is based on quoted prices for the underlying mutual funds, and is considered a Level 1 fair value.

The fair value of fixed-rate long-term debt is based on the discounted present value of cash flows using Questar Gas's current credit-risk adjusted borrowing rates.

Note 8 - Share-Based Compensation

Questar issues stock options, restricted shares and restricted stock units to certain officers, employees and non-employee directors under its Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (LTSIP). To generally preserve the potential benefits under the LTSIP prior to the Spinoff, stock options and restricted share awards outstanding as of the Distribution Date were adjusted and bifurcated into stock options and restricted share awards for both Questar and QEP, respectively. The exercise price of options and the grant-day prices of restricted shares were modified using the ratio of the June 30, 2010, closing prices of Questar, $14.66 or 32.23%, and QEP, $30.83 or 67.77%.

Questar recognizes expense over time as the stock options or restricted shares vest. For the first nine months share-based compensation expense amounted to $13.3 million in 2010 compared to $7.1 million in 2009. Deferred share-based compensation, representing the unvested value of restricted share awards, amounted to $8.8 million at September 30, 2010. Deferred share-based compensation is included in common stock on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the first nine months cash flow from income tax benefits in excess of recognized compensation expense amounted to $2.6 million in 2010 compared to $1.3 million in 2009. There were 8,347,021 shares available for future grants at September 30, 2010.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton mathematical model in estimating the fair value of stock options for accounting purposes. Fair-value calculations rely upon subjective assumptions used in the mathematical model and may not be representative of future results. The Black-Scholes-Merton model was intended for measuring the value of options traded on an exchange. The calculated fair value of options granted and major assumptions used in the model at February 9, 2010, the date of grant, are listed below:


	Stock Option Variables 9 Months Ended Sept. 30, 2010
Fair value of options at grant date (recast)	$13.10
Risk-free interest rate	2.30%
Expected price volatility	30.3%
Expected dividend yield	1.18%
Expected life in years	5.2

Unvested stock options decreased by 520,137 to 274,195 in the first nine months of 2010. Stock options of certain employees were immediately vested as a result of the Spinoff. Stock-option transactions under the terms of the LTSIP recast for the effect of the Spinoff are summarized below:

	2,929,869	2.7	$ 6.94	2,655,674	$ 6.43	274,195	$11.89

Restricted share grants typically vest in equal installments over a three- or four-year period from the grant date. Several grants vest in a single installment after a specified period. The weighted-average vesting period of unvested restricted shares at September 30, 2010, was 25 months. Restricted share transactions under the terms of the LTSIP recast for the effect of the Spinoff are summarized below:


	Unvested Restricted Shares	Price Range	Weighted-average Price
Balance at Dec. 31, 2009 (recast)	331,475	$10.01 - $17.57	$13.43
Granted	540,277	13.10 - 15.98	14.57
Questar employees transferred to QEP	(26,252)	10.91 - 20.31	7.44

Balance at September 30, 2010	583,271	$11.40 - $20.31	$14.62

In the third quarter of 2010, Questar issued 66,235 restricted stock units with a weighted-average price of $15.24 per share and a weighted-average vesting period of 21 months.

As result of the Spinoff and bifurcation of share-based awards, restricted QEP shares and QEP stock options were granted to certain officers, employees and non-employee directors of Questar. The awards include 256,591 unvested restricted shares with a weighted-average price of $29.20 per QEP share and 274,195 unvested stock options with a weighted-average price of $25.01 per QEP share. Questar will recognize expense in future periods for these unvested share-based awards. In addition, certain QEP officers, employees and non-employee directors hold 1,725,913 Questar stock options with a weighted-average exercise price of $9.55 and a weighted-average remaining life of 4.1 years and 613,657 Questar unvested restricted shares with a weighted-average price of $13.73.

Note 9 - Employee Benefits

Questar has defined-benefit pension and life insurance plans covering a majority of its employees. On July 1, 2010, Questar closed its defined-benefit pension plan to new hires or rehires. The Company previously closed its postretirement medical coverage and life insurance plan to employees hired or rehired after January 1, 1997, and established maximum amounts paid by the Company.

As a part of the Spinoff, Questar transferred benefit obligations to QEP for active QEP employees eligible for defined-benefit pension, postretirement medical and life insurance plans while Questar retained obligations for retired employees. The transfer of a portion of the benefit obligations to QEP triggered re-measurements resulting in increased expenses year-over-year. Expenses increased because the liability discount rate decreased from 6.5% to 5.75% and returns on plan assets were lower than expected.

Questar 2010 Form 10-Q

Questar is subject to and complies with minimum-required and maximum-allowed annual contribution levels for its qualified pension plan as determined by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act and Internal Revenue Code. Subject to these limitations, Questar generally plans to fund the qualified pension plan in amounts approximately equal to the yearly expense. However, Questar contributed $30.0 million to its qualified pension plan through September 30, 2010. The 2010 estimated qualified pension expense is $20.8 million.

The Company also has a nonqualified pension plan for eligible employees who participate in the qualified pension plan, which provides a "make-up" benefit due to the limits on compensation that can be taken into account in determining benefits under the qualified pension plan. The nonqualified pension plan is unfunded. Claims are paid from the Company general funds. The 2010 nonqualified pension plan expense is estimated to be $3.9 million. Components of the qualified and nonqualified pension expense included in the determination of net income are listed below:


	3 Months Ended Sept. 30,		9 Months Ended Sept. 30,		12 Months Ended Sept. 30,

The Company currently estimates a $5.0 million expense for postretirement benefits other than pensions in 2010 before $0.8 million for accretion of a regulatory liability. Postretirement benefits include an estimate of the effect of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003. Questar's prescription drug benefit is actuarially equivalent to Part D of Medicare and therefore qualifies for a federal subsidy available on benefits provided to plan participants. In 2004, the Medicare Part D benefit reduced the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation by $2.0 million. By year-end 2009, the Medicare Part D subsidy grew to $4.0 million. Yearly amortization of this benefit amounting to $0.3 million reduces expense through a decrease in the amortization of the unrecognized net loss. The Medicare Part D subsidy is no longer tax exempt as a result of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010. Receipts of Medicare Part D subsidies reduce Company contributions to the employee plan. Expense components are listed below:

Revenues

Wexpro earned a 20.1% after-tax return on its average investment base for the 12 months ended September 30, 2010. Wexpro 2010 operating results benefited from a higher average investment base compared to the prior-year period. Pursuant to the terms of a longstanding agreement referred to as the Wexpro Agreement, Wexpro recovers its costs and receives an after-tax return on its investment base. Wexpro’s investment base includes its costs of commercial wells and related facilities adjusted for working capital and reduced for deferred income taxes and depreciation. The investment base grew in 2010, but at a lower rate compared with 2009, reflecting reduced capital expenditures. Following is a summary of changes in the Wexpro investment base:

Questar 2010 Form 10-Q

Wexpro produced 37.5 bcf of cost-of-service natural gas for Questar Gas during the first nine months of 2010, up 4% from the first nine months of 2009. On an annual basis, Wexpro natural gas production provides about half of Questar Gas's supply requirements.

Revenues from oil and NGL sales increased 57% in the first nine months of 2010 over the first nine months of 2009 due to a 52% increase in the average sales price. The increase in revenues was largely offset by higher oil-related expenses and production taxes.

Expenses

Operating and maintenance expenses were up slightly in the third quarter of 2010 but lower in the nine- and 12-month periods ended September 30, 2010. Wexpro reduced spending on repairs and well workovers in the first nine months and trailing 12 months of 2010. General and administrative expenses were higher in the three-, nine- and 12-month periods ended September 30, 2010, due to higher employee and share-based compensation expenses. Production and other taxes were higher in the 2010 periods due to increased production and higher value of natural gas, oil and NGL production.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased 7% in the first nine months of 2010 over the first nine months of 2009 due to increased investment in natural gas wells and facilities and higher production volumes.

QUESTAR PIPELINE

Questar Pipeline reported third quarter 2010 income of $16.3 million compared with $14.1 million in 2009, a 16% increase. Income for the first nine months of 2010 was $49.4 million compared with $43.8 million for the first nine months of 2009. Questar Pipeline earned $63.8 million in the 12 months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $57.8 million in the 12 months ended September 30, 2009.

Revenues

As of September 30, 2010, Questar Pipeline had net firm-transportation contracts of 4,666 Mdth per day, including 1,020 Mdth per day from Questar Pipeline’s 50% ownership of White River Hub, compared with 4,208 Mdth per day as of September 30, 2009. Questar Pipeline has expanded its transportation system in response to growing regional natural gas production and transportation demand. The increase in transportation revenues in the 2010 periods compared to the 2009 periods was due primarily to a compression expansion of the Overthrust Pipeline system that was completed in the fourth quarter of 2009. The company has long-term firm-transportation contracts of 460 Mdth per day associated with this expansion.

Questar Gas is Questar Pipeline’s largest transportation customer with contracts for 901 Mdth per day. The majority of the Questar Gas transportation contracts extend through mid 2017.

Questar Pipeline owns and operates the Clay Basin underground storage complex in eastern Utah. This facility is 100% subscribed under long-term contracts. In addition to Clay Basin, Questar Pipeline also owns and operates three smaller aquifer gas storage facilities. Questar Gas has contracted for 26% of firm-storage capacity at Clay Basin for terms extending from three to nine years and 100% of the firm-storage capacity at the aquifer facilities for terms extending for eight years.

Questar Pipeline charges FERC-approved transportation and storage rates that are based on straight-fixed-variable rate design. Under this rate design, all fixed costs of providing service including depreciation and return on investment are recovered through the demand charge. About 95% of Questar Pipeline costs are fixed and recovered through these demand charges. Questar Pipeline’s earnings are driven primarily by demand revenues from firm shippers. Since only about 5% of operating costs are recovered through volumetric charges, changes in transportation volumes do not have a significant impact on earnings.

NGL revenues grew in the three, nine and 12 months of 2010 compared to the same periods of 2009 due to increased volumes and higher prices. NGL sales more than doubled in the first nine months of 2010 over the first nine months of 2009 due to a 54% increase in NGL prices and a 52% increase in sales volume. Volumes increased due to the third-quarter 2009 completion of a processing plant near Price, Utah.

Expenses

Operating and maintenance expenses increased by 11% in the third quarter of 2010, 5% in the first nine months of 2010 and 11% in the 12 months ended September 30, 2010, compared to corresponding 2009 periods. The increased costs are due primarily to higher compressor maintenance costs. General and administrative expenses increased by 6% in the third quarter of 2010, 16% in the first nine months of 2010 and 11% in the 12 months ended September 30, 2010, compared to corresponding 2009 periods. These increases are due to higher employee and share-base compensation expenses. Operating, maintenance, general and administrative expenses per dth transported were $0.10 in the first nine months of 2010 and 2009. Operating, maintenance, general and administrative expenses include processing and storage costs.

Depreciation expense was up 9% in the first nine months of 2010 compared to the first nine months of 2009 because of a compression expansion and a processing plant placed in service in late 2009.

QUESTAR GAS

Questar Gas reported a seasonal loss of $9.1 million in the third quarter of 2010 compared to a loss of $8.1 million in the third quarter of 2009. Income was $21.8 million in the first nine months of 2010, compared to $21.7 million in the first nine months of 2009. Income was $41.7 million in the 12 months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $42.1 million in the year-earlier period. Questar Gas, because of the seasonal nature of its business, typically reports income in the first and fourth quarters of the year and losses in the second and third quarters of the year.

At September 30, 2010, Questar Gas served 902,283 customers, up 1.6% from 888,332 at September 30, 2009. Customer growth increased the margin by $0.4 million in the third quarter of 2010, $2.6 million in the first nine months of 2010 and $3.7 million in the 12 months ended September 30, 2010.

Questar 2010 Form 10-Q

Questar Gas has had a conservation-enabling (revenue decoupling) tariff since 2006. Under this tariff, Questar Gas is allowed a margin for each general-service customer. Differences between the margin and the amount billed to customers are recovered from customers or refunded to customers through future rate changes. Because of this tariff, changes in usage per customer do not impact the company’s margin. In addition, a weather-normalization adjustment of customer bills offset the revenue impact of temperature variations.

Questar Gas margin increased during the three-, nine- and 12-month periods ended September 30, 2010, due to recovery of demand-side management costs used to promote energy conservation by customers. Changes in the margin contribution from demand-side management recovery revenues are offset by equivalent changes in program expenses.

On April 8, 2010, the Public Service Commission of Utah (PSCU) approved a settlement in Questar Gas’s Utah general rate case. The stipulation, effective August 1, 2010, authorized an increase in the utility’s allowed return on equity from 10% to 10.35% and indefinitely extended the existing conservation-enabling (revenue decoupling) tariff. The stipulation further approves an infrastructure cost-tracking mechanism that allows the company to place into rate base and earn on capital expenditures associated with a multiyear high-pressure natural gas feeder-line replacement program, and do it immediately upon the completion of each project. The stipulation agreement increased customer rates by $5.0 million annually with the changes in rates effective August 1, 2010.

Expenses

Cost of natural gas sold rose 8% in the third quarter of 2010, fell 10% in the first nine months of 2010 and fell 14% in the 12 months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the prior-year periods. Questar Gas accounts for purchased-gas costs in accordance with procedures authorized by the PSCU and the PSCW. Purchased-gas costs that are different from those provided for in present rates are accumulated and recovered or credited through future rate changes. As of September 30, 2010, Questar Gas had a $37 million under-collected balance in the purchased-gas adjustment account representing costs incurred in excess of costs recovered from customers. Questar Gas received authorization from the PSCU to increase rates by an annualized $48 million effective August 1, 2010, to recover these costs and higher projected future gas costs.

Operating and maintenance expenses increased $3.8 million in the third quarter of 2010, increased $14.3 million in the first nine months of 2010 and increased $25.1 million in the 12 months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods of 2009. These increases included higher demand-side management costs of $1.4 million, $15.4 million and $26.6 million for the three-, nine- and 12-month periods respectively. The demand-side management costs are for the company’s energy efficiency program and are recovered from customers through periodic rate changes. Bad debt expense was at a nearer-to-normal level in the third quarter of 2010 compared to a lower-than-usual level in the third quarter of 2009. Bad debt expense was $0.7 million lower in the first nine months and $1.7 million lower in the 12 months ended September 30, 2010, compared with the same periods in 2009. General and administrative expenses increased $1.9 million in the 2010 third quarter, $3.9 million in the 2010 first nine months and $6.1 million in the 12 months ended September 30, 2010, due to higher employee and share-based compensation expenses. Operating, maintenance, general and administrative expenses per customer, exclusive of demand-side management costs, were $103 in the first nine months of 2010 compared to $101 in the first nine months of 2009.

Depreciation expense increased 1% in the first nine months of 2010 compared to the first nine months of 2009 primarily as a result of plant additions from customer growth and replacement of feeder lines, which was partially offset with a reduction of depreciation rates as ordered by the PSCU effective August 1, 2010.

Other Consolidated Results

Consolidated cost of sales

Questar Gas’s cost of natural gas sold includes amounts paid to Wexpro for cost-of-service gas supplies and amounts paid to Questar Pipeline for transportation and storage services. These intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidated Questar financial statements. Questar Gas records injection of natural gas into underground storage as a reduction of cost of natural gas sold. During the third quarters of both 2010 and 2009, the Questar consolidated income statements show credit balances for cost of sales because of low sales volumes offset by the elimination of intercompany revenues and expenses and the injection of natural gas into storage.

Separation costs

Questar's share of separation costs associated with the June 30, 2010, Spinoff of QEP amounted to $11.5 million. Separation costs were primarily for advisory fees, legal fees and employee severance costs. Separation costs were reported at Corporate and resulted in losses from continuing operations, totaling $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2010, $8.0 million in the first nine months of 2010, and $8.4 million for the 12 months ended September 30, 2010.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased in the third quarter, first nine months and 12 months ended September 30, 2010, compared with the corresponding 2009 periods because of lower borrowing rates on commercial paper. In June 2010, Questar entered into a new $250.0 million 364-day revolving credit loan agreement and a new $350.0 million multi-year revolving credit agreement to support

Questar 2010 Form 10-Q

commercial paper borrowing, which resulted in an increase in commitment fee expense. Questar borrowed $250.0 million and contributed the proceeds to QEP prior to the Spinoff.

Income taxes

Questar's effective combined federal and state income tax rate was 37.0% in the first nine months of 2010 compared with 35.9 % in the 2009 period. The increase in the effective income tax rate in 2010 resulted primarily from changes in estimates of the deductibility of certain separation costs.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations decreased 12% in the first nine months of 2010 compared to the first nine months of 2009 due primarily to changes in operating assets and liabilities. Cash sources from operating assets and liabilities were lower in 2010 due to normal repayment to gas distribution customers through rate adjustments of over-collected gas purchase costs. Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations is presented below:


	9 Months Ended Sept. 30,

Financing Activities

In the nine months of 2010, net cash provided by operating activities by continuing operations of $283.6 million was less than net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations of $406.0 million by $122.4 million. Investing activities included a $250.0 million contribution to QEP prior to the Spinoff. Long-term debt was unchanged in 2010 and short-term debt increased by a net change of $226.0 million in the first nine months of 2010. Questar borrowed $250 million and contributed the proceeds to QEP prior to the Spinoff.

Questar issues commercial paper to meet short-term financing requirements. Commercial paper outstanding amounted to $395 million at September 30, 2010 supported by $600 million of committed bank credit lines. The Company maintains committed credit lines with banks to provide liquidity support. At September 30, 2010, there were no amounts borrowed on the committed credit lines. In June of 2010, the Company entered into a $250 million 364-day revolving credit agreement that matures June 29, 2011, and a $350 million multi-year revolving credit agreement that matures July 1, 2013. Under the terms of the revolving credit agreements and defined within the agreements, "Consolidated Funded Debt" cannot exceed four times "Consolidated EBITDA".

Questar 2010 Form 10-Q

At September 30, 2010, combined short-term and long-term debt was 56% and equity was 44% of total capital. Adjusted for the Spinoff, short-term and long-term debt was 48% and equity was 52% of total capital at December 31, 2009. Questar Pipeline has $180 million of long-term debt maturing in 2011.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Wexpro operations are subject to various government controls and regulation at the federal, state and local levels. Wexpro must obtain permits to drill and produce, maintain bonding requirements to drill and operate wells, submit and implement spill-prevention plans, and file notices relating to the presence, use, and release of specified contaminants incidental to gas and oil production. Wexpro is also subject to various conservation matters, including the regulation of the size of drilling and spacing units, the number of wells that may be drilled in a unit and the unitization or pooling of gas and oil properties. In addition, the Utah Division of Public Utilities has oversight responsibility and retains an outside reservoir-engineering consultant and a financial auditor to assess the prudence of Wexpro's activities.

Questar Pipeline’s primary market risk exposures arise from changes in demand for transportation and storage services and competition from other pipelines. The demand for transportation and storage services will vary based on the market’s expectations about future volumes of natural gas likely to be produced in the basins served by Questar Pipeline and changes in market demand for natural gas. On some portions of its pipeline system the Company faces the risk that it will not be successful in recontracting capacity under favorable terms once existing contracts expire. Revenue may be reduced if NGL prices or volumes decline.

Questar Gas’s primary market risk exposures arise from changes in demand for natural gas and competition from other energy sources. The demand for natural gas will vary based on economic conditions, conservation efforts and prices. The temperature-adjusted usage per residential customer has decreased due to more energy efficient appliances and homes, and behavior changes in response to higher natural gas prices. The economic impact of this decline in usage per customer has been somewhat offset by the addition of new customers and the conservation-enabling tariff.

Credit Risk

Questar Pipeline requests credit support, such as letters of credit and cash deposits, from companies that pose unfavorable credit risks. All companies posing such concerns were current on their accounts at September 30, 2010. Questar Pipeline's largest customers include Questar Gas, Rockies Express Pipeline, EOG Resources, XTO Energy, Wyoming Interstate Pipeline, EnCana Marketing and PacifiCorp.

Questar Gas's primary market area is located in Utah, southwestern Wyoming and southeastern Idaho. Exposure to credit risk may be affected by the concentration of customers in these regions due to changes in economic or other conditions. Customers include individuals and numerous commercial and industrial enterprises that may react differently to changing conditions. Management believes that its credit-review procedures, loss reserves, customer deposits and collection procedures have adequately provided for usual and customary credit-related losses.

Interest-Rate Risk Management

On September 30, 2010, Questar had $831.1 million of fixed-rate long-term subsidiary debt with a weighted-average life to maturity of 8.4 years. The Company also had $395.0 million of floating-rate debt outstanding in the form of short-maturity commercial paper.
