The Crestwood Parties and the Underwriters agree as follows:

1. Sale and Purchase. Upon the basis of the representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Partnership agrees to issue and sell to the respective Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase from the Partnership, the number of Firm Units set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule A attached hereto, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 9 hereof, in each case at a purchase price of $29.50 per Unit.

In addition, the Partnership hereby grants to the several Underwriters the option (the “Over-Allotment Option”) to purchase, and upon the basis of the representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Underwriters shall have the right to purchase, severally and not jointly, from the Partnership, ratably in accordance with the number of Firm Units to be purchased by each of them, all or a portion of the Additional Units in the event the Underwriters sell more than the number of Firm Units, at the same purchase price per Unit to be paid by the Underwriters to the Partnership for the Firm Units. The Over-Allotment Option may be exercised by the Representatives on behalf of the several Underwriters at any time and from time to time on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Prospectus, by written notice to the Partnership. Such notice shall set forth the aggregate number of Additional Units as to which the Over-Allotment Option is being exercised and the date and time when the Additional Units are to be delivered (any such date and time being herein referred to as an “additional time of purchase”); provided, however, that no additional time of purchase shall be earlier than the “time of purchase” (as defined below) nor earlier than (i) if such additional time of purchase is concurrent with the initial time of purchase, the first business day after the date on which the Over-Allotment Option shall have been exercised and (ii) if such additional time of purchase is after the initial time of purchase, the second business day after the date on which the Over-Allotment Option shall have been exercised; nor later than the tenth business day after the date on which the Over-Allotment Option shall have been exercised.

2. Payment and Delivery. Payment of the purchase price for the Units shall be made to the Partnership by Federal Funds wire transfer against electronic delivery of the certificates for the Units to you through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) for the respective accounts of the Underwriters. Such payment and delivery shall be made at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on January 13, 2012 (unless another time shall be agreed to by you and the Partnership or unless postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 hereof). The time at which such payment and delivery are to be made is hereinafter sometimes called the “time of purchase.” Electronic transfer of the Units shall be made to you at the time of purchase in such names and in such denominations as you shall specify.

Payment of the purchase price for the Additional Units shall be made at the additional time of purchase in the same manner and at the same office as the payment for the Firm Units.

8. Effective Date of Agreement; Termination. This Agreement shall become effective when the parties hereto have executed and delivered this Agreement.

The obligations of the several Underwriters hereunder shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, if (1) since the time of execution of this Agreement or the earlier respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus there has been any change or any development involving a prospective change in the business, properties, management, financial condition or results of operations of or prospects of the Partnership Entities, taken as a whole, the effect of which change or development is, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the Offering on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectuses, the Prospectus and the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, or (2) since the time of execution of this Agreement, there shall have occurred: (A) a suspension or material limitation in trading in securities generally on the NYSE; (B) a suspension or material limitation in trading in the Partnership’s securities on the NYSE; (C) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities declared by either federal or New York State authorities or a material

disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States; (D) an outbreak or escalation of hostilities or acts of terrorism involving the United States or a declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war; or (E) any other calamity or crisis or any change in financial, political or economic conditions in the United States or elsewhere, if the effect of any such event specified in clause (D) or (E), in the judgment of the Representatives, makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Units on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectuses, the Prospectus and the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, or (3) since the time of execution of this Agreement, there shall have occurred any downgrading, or any notice or announcement shall have been given or made of: (A) any intended or potential downgrading or (B) any watch, review or possible change that does not indicate an affirmation or improvement in the rating accorded any securities of or guaranteed by any Partnership Entity by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization,” as that term is defined in Rule 436(g)(2) under the Securities Act.

If the Representatives elect to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 8, the Partnership and each other Underwriter shall be notified promptly in writing.

If the sale to the Underwriters of the Units, as contemplated by this Agreement, is not carried out by the Underwriters for any reason permitted under this Agreement, or if such sale is not carried out because the Crestwood Parties shall be unable to comply with any of the terms of this Agreement, the Crestwood Parties shall not be under any obligation or liability under this Agreement (except to the extent provided in Sections 5, 6 and 10 hereof), and the Underwriters shall be under no obligation or liability to the Partnership Entities under this Agreement (except to the extent provided in Section 10 hereof) or to one another hereunder.

9. Increase in Underwriters’ Commitments. Subject to Sections 7 and 8 hereof, if any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to take up and pay for the Firm Units to be purchased by it hereunder (otherwise than for a failure of a condition set forth in Section 7 hereof or a reason sufficient to justify the termination of this Agreement under the provisions of Section 8 hereof) and if the number of Firm Units which all Underwriters so defaulting shall have agreed but failed to take up and pay for does not exceed 10% of the total number of Firm Units, the non-defaulting Underwriters (including the Underwriters, if any, substituted in the manner set forth below) shall take up and pay for (in addition to the aggregate number of Firm Units they are obligated to purchase pursuant to Section 1 hereof) the number of Firm Units agreed to be purchased by all such defaulting Underwriters, as hereinafter provided. Such Units shall be taken up and paid for by such non-defaulting Underwriters in such amount or amounts as you may designate with the consent of each Underwriter so designated or, in the event no such designation is made, such Units shall be taken up and paid for by all non-defaulting Underwriters pro rata in proportion to the aggregate number of Firm Units set forth opposite the names of such non-defaulting Underwriters in Schedule A.

Without relieving any defaulting Underwriter from its obligations hereunder, the Partnership agrees with the non-defaulting Underwriters that it will not sell any Firm Units hereunder unless all of the Firm Units are purchased by the Underwriters (or by substituted Underwriters selected by you with the approval of the Partnership or selected by the Partnership with your approval).

If a new Underwriter or Underwriters are substituted by the Underwriters or by the Partnership for a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters in accordance with the foregoing provision, the Partnership or you shall have the right to postpone the time of purchase for a period not exceeding five business days in order that any necessary changes in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and other documents may be effected.

The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall refer to and include any Underwriter substituted under this Section 9 with like effect as if such substituted Underwriter had originally been named in Schedule A hereto.

If the aggregate number of Firm Units which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed to purchase exceeds 10% of the total number of Firm Units which all Underwriters agreed to purchase hereunder, and if neither the non-defaulting Underwriters nor the Partnership shall make arrangements within the five business day period stated above for the purchase of all the Firm Units which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed to purchase hereunder, this Agreement shall terminate without further act or deed and without any liability on the part of the Crestwood Parties to any Underwriter and without any liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter to the Crestwood Parties. Nothing in this paragraph, and no action taken hereunder, shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

10. Indemnity and Contribution.

(a) Each of the Crestwood Parties, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Underwriter, the partners, directors, officers, employees and agents of any Underwriter, affiliates of any Underwriter who have participated in the distribution of the Units as underwriters, and any person who controls any Underwriter or any such affiliate within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing persons, from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which, jointly or severally, any such Underwriter or any such person may incur under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in, the Registration Statement (or in the Registration Statement as amended by any post-effective amendment thereof by the Partnership) or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with the information specified in Section 11 hereof furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through you to the Partnership expressly for use in, the Registration Statement or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in the Registration Statement in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or was necessary to make such information not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged

untrue statement of a material fact included in any Prospectus (the term Prospectus for the purpose of this Section 10 being deemed to include any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus and any amendments or supplements to the foregoing), in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in any “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act) of the Partnership or in any Prospectus together with any combination of one or more of the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except, with respect to such Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with the information specified in Section 11 hereof furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through you to the Partnership expressly for use in, such Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(b) Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Crestwood Parties, their directors and officers, and any person who controls the Partnership within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing persons, from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which, jointly or severally, the Crestwood Parties or any such person may incur under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with the information specified in Section 11 hereof furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through you to the Partnership expressly for use in, the Registration Statement (or in the Registration Statement as amended by any post-effective amendment thereof by the Partnership), or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Registration Statement in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or was necessary to make such information not misleading or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with the information specified in Section 11 hereof furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through you to the Partnership expressly for use in, a Prospectus or a Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c) If any action, suit or proceeding (each, a “Proceeding”) is brought against a person (an “indemnified party”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Crestwood Parties or an Underwriter (as applicable, the “indemnifying party”) pursuant to subsection (a) or (b), respectively, of this Section 10, such indemnified party shall promptly notify such indemnifying party in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and such indemnifying party shall assume the defense of such Proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the failure to so notify such indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability which such indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party or otherwise. The indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding or the indemnifying party shall not have, within a reasonable period of time in light of the circumstances, employed counsel to defend such Proceeding or such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to such indemnifying party (in which case such indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by such indemnifying party and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that, except as provided in the second paragraph of Section 10(a), such indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such Proceeding). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent, but, if settled with its written consent, such indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party or parties from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second sentence of this Section 10(c), then the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 business days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have fully reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement unless such failure to reimburse the indemnified party is based on a dispute with a good faith basis as to either the obligation of the indemnifying party arising under this Section 10 to indemnify the indemnified party or the amount of such obligation and the indemnifying party shall have notified the indemnified party of such good faith dispute prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such indemnified party shall have given the indemnifying party at least 30 days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an

unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include an admission of fault or culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is unavailable to an indemnified party under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 10 or insufficient to hold an indemnified party harmless in respect of any losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Crestwood Parties on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the Offering or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Crestwood Parties on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Crestwood Parties on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total proceeds from the Offering (net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by the Partnership, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Units. The relative fault of the Crestwood Parties on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Crestwood Parties or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, damages, expenses, liabilities and claims referred to in this subsection shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any Proceeding.

(e) The Crestwood Parties and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in subsection (d) above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Units underwritten by such Underwriter and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damage which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 10 are several in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments and not joint.

(f) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 10 and the covenants, warranties and representations of the Crestwood Parties contained in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, its partners, directors or officers or any person (including each partner, officer or director of such person) who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, or by or on behalf of the Crestwood Parties, their directors or officers or any person who controls the Crestwood Parties within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the issuance and delivery of the Units. The Crestwood Parties and each Underwriter agree promptly to notify each other of the commencement of any Proceeding against it and, in the case of the Crestwood Parties, against any of the General Partner’s officers or directors in connection with the issuance and sale of the Units, or in connection with the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

11. Information Furnished by the Underwriters. The concession figure appearing under the caption “Underwriting—Underwriting Discounts and Expenses,” the legal name of each Underwriter appearing in the table under the caption “Underwriting,” and the disclosure appearing under the caption “Underwriting—Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids” in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus constitute the only information furnished by or on behalf of the Underwriters, as such information is referred to in Sections 3 and 10 hereof.

13. Governing Law; Construction. This Agreement and any claim, counterclaim or dispute of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement (“Claim”), directly or indirectly, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. The section headings in this Agreement have been inserted as a matter of convenience of reference and are not a part of this Agreement.

14. Submission to Jurisdiction. Except as set forth below, no Claim may be commenced, prosecuted or continued in any court other than the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, which courts shall have jurisdiction over the adjudication of such matters, and the parties hereto consent to the jurisdiction of such courts and personal service with respect thereto.

The parties hereto hereby consent to personal jurisdiction, service and venue in any court in which any Claim arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement is brought by any third party against any Underwriter or any indemnified party. Each Underwriter and the Crestwood Parties (on each of its behalf and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on behalf of each of its equity holders and affiliates waive all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

January 10, 2012

▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Securities, LLC

Together with the other Underwriters

Named in Schedule A to the Underwriting Agreement referred to herein

c/o Wells Fargo Securities, LLC

▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇

▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Lock-Up Agreement is being delivered to you in connection with the proposed Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) to be entered into by Crestwood Gas Services LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and Crestwood Gas Services GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, on the one hand, and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Securities, LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC and UBS Securities LLC and the other underwriters named in Schedule A to the Underwriting Agreement, on the other hand, with respect to the public offering (the “Offering”) of 3,500,000 common units of the Partnership representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (the “Firm Units”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Underwriting Agreement.

In order to induce you to enter into the Underwriting Agreement, the undersigned agrees that, for a period (the “Lock-Up Period”) beginning on the date hereof and ending on, and including, the date that is 60 days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the Offering, the undersigned will not, without the prior written consent of ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Securities, LLC, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file (or participate in the filing of) a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in respect of, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”) with respect to any Common Units or any other securities of the Partnership that are substantially similar to Common Units, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any warrants or other rights to purchase, the foregoing, whether currently held or later acquired, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Common Units or any other securities of the Partnership that are substantially similar to Common Units, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any warrants or other rights to purchase, the foregoing, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Common Units or such other securities, in cash or otherwise or (iii) publicly announce an intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii). The foregoing

A-1

sentence shall not apply to (a) the sale of the Units as contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement and the sale of the Units to the Underwriters (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) in the Offering, (b) bona fide gifts, provided the recipient thereof agrees in writing with the Underwriters to be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement, (c) dispositions to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned and/or the immediate family of the undersigned, provided that such trust agrees in writing with the Underwriters to be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement, (d) the exercise or vesting of securities issued pursuant to the Partnership’s 2007 equity plan, as amended, that are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for the Common Units, provided, that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to (b), (c) or (d) above, no filing by any party under the Exchange Act or other public announcement shall be required or shall be made voluntarily in connection with such transfer or distribution (other than a filing on a Form 5 made after the expiration of the 60-day period referred to above), or (e) the disposition to the Partnership of Common Units or securities issued pursuant to the Partnership’s 2007 equity plan, as amended, that are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for the Common Units in order to satisfy any tax withholding. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean the undersigned and the spouse, any lineal descendent, father, mother, brother or sister of the undersigned.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Lock-Up Agreement shall not be applicable and shall have no force and effect with respect to any Common Units obtained by the Collateral Agent (as defined) pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement dated and effective as of October 1, 2010, as amended, among Crestwood Holdings LLC, Quicksilver Gas Services Holdings LLC (n/k/a Crestwood Gas Services Holdings LLC), and Bank of America, N.A., as Collateral Agent.

In addition, the undersigned hereby waives any rights the undersigned may have to require registration of Common Units in connection with the filing of a registration statement relating to the Offering. The undersigned further agrees that, for the Lock-Up Period, the undersigned will not, without the prior written consent of ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Securities, LLC, make any demand for, or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of Common Units or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Units, or warrants or other rights to purchase Common Units or any such securities.

In addition, the undersigned hereby waives any and all preemptive rights, participation rights, resale rights, rights of first refusal and similar rights that the undersigned may have in connection with the Offering or with any issuance or sale by the Partnership of any equity or other securities before the Offering, except for any such rights as have been heretofore duly exercised.

The undersigned hereby confirms that the undersigned has not, directly or indirectly, taken, and hereby covenants that the undersigned will not, directly or indirectly, take, any action designed, or which has constituted or will constitute or might reasonably be expected to cause or result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Partnership to facilitate the sale or resale of Common Units.

If (i) the Partnership notifies you in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering, (ii) the registration statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Offering is withdrawn or (iii) for any reason the Underwriting Agreement shall be terminated prior to the “time of purchase” (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement), this Lock-Up Agreement shall be terminated and the undersigned shall be released from its obligations hereunder.

4. The Underwriting Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Partnership and the General Partner.

5.

6. The Partnership is the owner of record of all of the issued and outstanding membership interests in Crestwood Pipeline LLC and such membership interests have been validly issued in accordance with the Crestwood Pipeline LLC Agreement; and such membership interests are free and clear of all Liens (a) in respect of which a financing statement under the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code naming the Partnership as debtor is on file in the office of the Delaware Secretary of State or (b) otherwise known to us, without independent investigation, in each case other than those as would not be a Material Adverse Effect or created by or arising under the Texas Limited Liability Company Law.

7. The Common Units and the limited partner interests represented thereby, when issued against payment and delivered to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, will be validly issued and the holders thereof will have no obligation to make any further payment for the purchase of the same or to make contributions to the Partnership solely by reason of their ownership of the Common Units (except as the same may be affected by Sections 17-303 and 17-607 of the Delaware LP Act and other matters described in the Prospectus under the caption “Risk Factors — Risks Inherent in an Investment in Us — Unitholders’ liability may not be limited if a court finds that unitholder action constitutes control of our business” and “Risk Factors — Risks Inherent in an Investment in US — Unitholders may have liability to repay distributions that were wrongfully distributed to them” and under the caption “The Partnership Agreement—Limited Liability” incorporated by reference from the Partnership’s registration statement on Form 8-A filed on March 17, 2009), and the issuance of such Common Units is not subject to any statutory preemptive rights or similar rights arising under the Partnership Agreement, the Certificate of Limited Partnership of the Partnership dated January 31, 2007, as amended (the “Partnership Certificate”), the Delaware LP Act.

agreement or other organizational documents (the “Organizational Documents”) of the Partnership Entities, (B) any agreement filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement or filed or incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Partnership’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and any applicable current reports of the Partnership on Form 8-K filed with the Commission since December 31, 2010, or (c) any provision of the laws of the State of New York, the DGCL, the Delaware LP Act or the Delaware LLC Act or any federal law of the United States of America that in our experience is normally applicable to limited partnerships and limited liability companies in relation to transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, (provided that we express no opinion as to federal or state securities laws) which conflicts, breaches, violation or defaults, in the case of clauses (B) or (C) would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, affect the validity of the Units or prevent or materially interfere with consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement.

10. No consent, approval, authorization, or order of, or qualification with, any governmental body or agency is required under the laws of the State of New York, the DGCL, the Delaware LP Act or the Delaware LLC Act or any federal law of the United States of America that in our experience is normally applicable to limited partnerships and limited liability companies in relation to transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, or is required for the Offering or the execution, delivery and performance by the Partnership and the General Partner of their obligations under the Underwriting Agreement or the consummation by the Partnership of the transactions contemplated hereby, except such as may be required under state securities, Blue Sky laws or the anti-fraud provisions of federal securities laws (as to which we express no opinion).

11. Our opinion filed as Exhibit 8.1 to the Registration Statement dated January 10, 2012 is confirmed and the Underwriters may rely upon such opinion as if it were addressed to them.

12. The statements (a) in the Registration Statement under the captions “Provisions of our Partnership Agreement Relating to Cash Distributions,” “Description of Common Units,” “Material Provisions of Our Partnership Agreement,” and “Investment in Crestwood Midstream Partners LP by Employee Benefit Plans” insofar as they constitute descriptions of agreements, fairly describe in all material respects the portions of the agreements addressed thereby, and the Units conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus under the captions “Prospectus Supplement Summary — The Offering,” “Cash Distributions,” “Description of Common Units,” and “Material Provisions of Our Partnership Agreement.”

13. The Registration Statement was declared effective under the Act as of April 28, 2011; the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus Supplement were filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) on January 9, 2012 and January 10, 2012, respectively, in a manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b); and, to our knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Act and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or threatened by the Commission.

B-4

14. Without independent verification of the factual accuracy, completeness or fairness of any statements made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, each of the Registration Statement, on each Effective Date, and the Prospectus, when filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) and on the date hereof (other than the financial statements and financial schedules, and other financial information included therein, as to which we express no opinion) appears on its face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

In addition, such counsel shall state that they have reviewed the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and have participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Partnership and the independent registered public accounting firm of the Partnership and representatives of the Underwriters, at which the contents of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and related matters were discussed, and although such counsel has not independently verified, are not passing upon, and are not assuming any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (except to the extent specified in the foregoing opinions), based on the foregoing, no facts have come to such counsel’s attention that lead such counsel to believe that:

(a) the Registration Statement, as of the Effective Date, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading;

(b) the Disclosure Package, as of the Applicable Time, included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or

(c) the Prospectus, as of its date and as of the applicable Closing Date, included or includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

it being understood that such counsel expresses no statement or belief with respect to the financial statements, related schedules, including the notes thereto and the independent public accounting firm’s report thereon or other financial data included or incorporated by reference in, or omitted from, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or documents incorporated by reference therein.
