    PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 25, 2005--Atlas Pipeline Partners L.P. (AMEX:APL) (the "Partnership") announced today that it will participate in the Fourth Annual Master Limited Partnership Investor Conference to be held on February 28 to March 1, 2005 at the Essex House in New York City. APL will present at 3:35 p.m. on Monday, February 28, 2005.

    Atlas Pipeline Partners, L.P. is active in the gas gathering and processing segment of the mid-stream natural gas industry. In Appalachia, it owns and operates more than 1,400 miles of natural gas gathering pipelines in western Pennsylvania, western New York and eastern Ohio to which more than 4,250 wells are currently connected. APL gathers approximately 52 million cubic feet ("mcf") of gas per day from these wells. In the Mid-Continent region of southern Oklahoma and northern Texas, APL owns and operates approximately 1,900 miles of gas gathering pipeline. APL transports approximately 65 million cubic feet of gas per day to its gas processing facility in Velma, Oklahoma where natural gas liquids (NGL) are removed. APL then sells the resulting gas and NGL and remits a portion of those proceeds to the producer. In both Appalachia and the Mid-Continent, the fees paid to APL are either a percentage of the gross selling price of the gas or NGL or a fixed fee per mcf transported. Atlas America, Inc. (Nasdaq:ATLS) is the owner of the Partnership's general partner, and owns 1,641,026 units of APL.

    Statements made in this release may include forward-looking statements, which involve substantial risks and uncertainties. The Partnership's actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed or implied in this release as a result of certain factors, including competition within the energy industry, climactic conditions and the price of gas in the Appalachian and Mid-Continent areas, actual versus projected volumetric production from wells connected to the Partnership's gas-gathering pipeline system, and the cost of supplies and services in the energy industry and other factors disclosed under "Risk Factors" in our most recent 10Q and 10K.
