| (1) | On March 31, 2014, Sanchez Energy Partners I, LP ("SEPI") entered into a settlement agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") with Constellation Energy Partners Management, LLC ("CEPM"), Constellation Energy Partners LLC ("CEP") and the other parties thereto, under which (i) SEPI and CEP agreed to rescind the August 9, 2013 purchase of Class A Units by SEPI, with the associated proceeds to be refunded by CEP to SEPI, (ii) CEPM agreed to transfer to SEPI 484,505 Class A Units and (iii) SEPI agreed to purchase 414,938 Class B Units from CEPM. |
| (2) | These securities are owned directly by SEPI. SEPI is controlled by its general partner, SEP Management I, LLC, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sanchez Oil & Gas Corporation. Sanchez Oil & Gas Corporation is managed by A.R. Sanchez, Jr. and Antonio R. Sanchez, III. Antonio R. Sanchez, III shares voting and dispositive power over the shares controlled by SEPI. Antonio R. Sanchez, III disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein, and the inclusion of these securities in this report shall not be deemed an admission of beneficial ownership of all of the reported securities for purposes of Section 16 or any other purpose. |
| (3) | Subject to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, CEPM is required to pursue sales of all of its Class B Units (the "Subject Units"). As further described in footnotes (5), (6), (7) and (8) below, (i) SEPI is required to make a deficiency payment to CEPM if, as of December 15, 2014 or, if earlier, after the sale of all Subject Units after the passage of the six-month anniversary of the consummation of all of the transactions contemplated by footnote (1) and the dismissal of the related lawsuit (as it may be extended, the "Determination Date"), the aggregate amount actually received by CEPM from the sales of the Subject Units pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (the "Actual Proceeds") are less than the Subject Unit Target Proceeds (as defined in footnote (5)), and (ii) CEPM is required to share any excess proceeds and/or Subject Units with SEPI if the Actual Proceeds exceed the Subject Unit Target Proceeds as of the Determination Date. |
| (4) | Before the passage of the six-month anniversary of the consummation of all the transactions contemplated by footnote (1) and the dismissal of the related lawsuit, in no event may the number of Subject Units disposed of (and/or contracted or committed to be disposed of) or the proceeds from all sales of (and/or contracts or commitments from all sales of) Subject Units exceed, in the aggregate, 95% of either the Subject Units or the Subject Unit Target Proceeds. |
| (5) | Under the Settlement Agreement, on the earlier of (i) December 29, 2014 or (ii) 14 days after the date of sale of the last Subject Unit held by CEPM, but in no event sooner than 15 days after the six-month anniversary of the consummation of the transactions referred to in footnote (1) and the dismissal of the related lawsuit (the earlier of such dates, the "Deficiency Payment Date"), to the extent that the Actual Proceeds as of the Determination Date are less than an amount equal to the excess of (i) $21.6 million minus (ii) the amounts paid to CEPM pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (such difference, the "Subject Unit Target Proceeds"), SEPI or its designee (other than CEP) will pay to CEPM an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the shortfall from the Subject Unit Target Proceeds calculated as set forth in the Settlement Agreement, or (ii) $5 million (such lesser amount, the "Deficiency Payment"). |
| (6) | CEPM may elect, by giving at least seven days written notice to SEPI prior to the then-current Determination Date, a four month delay in the Determination Date, in its sole discretion, if it still holds more than 1 million Class B Units, during which such four-month period CEPM shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sell the remainder of the Subject Units; provided that if CEPM elects this delay in the Determination Date, the Deficiency Payment Date shall also be delayed by four months and no payment will be due from SEPI or its designee until April 29, 2015. |
| (7) | Under the Settlement Agreement, on the Determination Date, in the event that there is any surplus achieved from the sales of the Subject Units in excess of the Subject Unit Target Proceeds, or there are any Subject Units still owned by CEPM after CEPM has received or will receive the Subject Units Target Proceeds, then CEPM and SEPI agree to share equally in the excess proceeds and/or Subject Units. Within ten business days from the date that CEPM receives or will receive all of the Subject Unit Target Proceeds, which shall in no event occur prior to the passage of the six-month anniversary date of the consummation of the transactions referred to in footnote (1) and the dismissal of the related lawsuit, CEPM will (i) pay half of any net proceeds in excess of the Subject Unit Target Proceeds to SEPI or its designee, and (ii) transfer to SEPI or its designee half of any remaining Subject Units held by CEPM. |
| (8) | However, this sharing is subject to the restriction that SEPI's (including its designee's) one-half share in any aggregate proceeds in excess of the Subject Target Proceeds shall be capped at $5 million (i.e., SEPI would not be entitled to share further in aggregate proceeds in excess of the Subject Unit Target Proceeds once the aggregate excess amount exceeds $10 million). |
