2 Massive scale of competition could yield billions in profit for the Ward family • We believe the Ward family has acquired massive mineral rights in the Mississippian – ½ million acres! • Extensive overlap with SandRidge – in 22 counties in Oklahoma and Kansas…and often acquired in advance of, or alongside, SandRidge • SandRidge is spending enormous amounts on development and critical infrastructure. This investment – by SandRidge – could cause the adjacent holdings of the Ward family to be worth BILLIONS • The conflicts of interest, and potential for harm, to SandRidge stockholders are staggering!

3 Extraordinary investment by SandRidge stockholders could yield enormous profit for the Ward family The Mississippian is still a play in its developmental stage There is still controversy about the size of the play, and whether it is statistical (equally good across the play) or has sweet spots It is a relatively shallow play, so actual well costs are not as high as in some deeper plays, but… …The unusual cost is in the infrastructure Water disposal is a critical aspect of extracting oil and gas in the Mississippian Other utilities, such as electricity, must be built and provided as well Unless you build the infrastructure and water disposal systems, there is little value in mineral rights. SandRidge projects it will spend over $1.7 billion in capital expenditures this year – added to over $800 million in financing costs and overhead spending, this represents roughly 80% of SandRidge’s entire remaining market capitalization being spent just this year! Much of this money is being spent to increase value of the Mississippian mineral rights Drill wells to ‘de risk’ and ‘prove’ the value of the mineral rights in an area Massive investment in infrastructure necessary for drilling in the region ‘Use it or lose it’ – mineral rights often expire in 5 years if activity isn’t commenced We believe the Ward family has acquired massive amounts of land in overlap with SandRidge. This land could be worth BILLIONS of dollars if SandRidge efforts to build infrastructure and ‘prove out’ acreage in the Mississippian are successful!

4 Is it not logical that the existence of another buyer, acquiring massive amounts of mineral rights in the same areas, would affect the price SandRidge had to pay ? Were SandRidge resources and information used for the benefit of the Ward family entities? Given how expensive infrastructure development are, why did SandRidge not take a more concentrated approach to acquiring mineral rights? To use a railroad analogy – why lay more track but let others buy land next to the tracks? What mineral rights ended up with SandRidge, and what rights ended up with the Ward family (particularly WCT Resources)? Do we have the good acreage, or the bad acreage? The massive capital expenditure investment in the Mississippian is a ‘life or death’ bet for SandRidge. How can stockholders be certain that this investment is being made judiciously solely in their interest , as opposed to being spent to maximize the value of Ward family interests? Recent well results from the Kansas portion of the play appear to be weaker than the original Oklahoma portions. Yet the Ward family appears to be more heavily exposed to these newer areas... and SandRidge continues to invest heavily in the Kansas extensions. Is this in the best interests of SandRidge stockholders? Or the Ward family? SandRidge has been seeking to monetize its Mississippian acreage – first by investing to prove its value and build infrastructure, and then by selling those rights to third parties. Does it not affect SandRidge’s value when the Ward family is a large owner of similar rights, and is clearly actively selling those rights to third parties? The conflicts of interest are staggering!

5 CEO Tom Ward and his family have been an aggressive competitor to SandRidge, as we noted in the past They aggressively buy land, often in advance of the company, and then either keep it, sell it to others or even in a few instances, sell it to SandRidge We think this competition is abhorrent . The company defends it simply by saying WCT Resources is independent, and by implying the overlap is coincidental or immaterial. We do not believe WCT deserves the presumption of independence TPG - Axon is continuing its process of exhaustive information gathering and analysis, using a team of independent investigators across a large number of counties in Kansas and Oklahoma We first published our initial findings on January 23, 2013, where we detailed specific instances of adjacent acquisitions between SandRidge and WCT Resources or other entities associated with the Ward family. We provide additional examples of various patterns of activity in the Appendix to this presentation. These repeated instances of adjacent acquisitions are additional examples of the types of transactions we have uncovered by WCT Resources (and other entities associated with the Ward family). We are continuing our investigation. Entities controlled by the Ward family compete with SandRidge…

6 … and the scale of this competition is truly massive! WCT Resources has been among the largest acquirers of mineral rights in the Mississippian Previously, we had not yet completed enough work to assess the degree of competition and overlap. Based on our additional work, it is now clear to us that the degree of overlap and competition is truly massive . We believe WCT Resources is the 5 th largest acreage holder in the Mississippian, behind only SandRidge, Chesapeake , Shell and Devon From a thorough review the 22 counties where WCT Resources has overlap with SandRidge, we have found that WCT Resources has ~475k acres in the Mississippian

7 Scope of WCT Resources So far we have found overlap between WCT Resources and SandRidge in 22 counties

10 How does the Board justify what has happened? By claiming the family - related entities are “independent” of SandRidge ! Under Tom Ward’s 2006 employment agreement, acquisition of mineral rights was expressly prohibited If Tom Ward were found to have any meaningful involvement in the activities of WCT Resources, or other family - related entities (such as 192 Investments), under the terms of his 2006 employment agreement, he could have been terminated for cause and potentially sued for damages… … but the Board claims that WCT Resources is completely independent of SandRidge and Tom Ward, and therefore any of WCT Resources activities were permissible … The Board also claims that such activities were not required to be disclosed to SandRidge stockholders, regardless of the inherent competition and conflicts of interest … … except for the instances of direct sales made by WCT Resources to SandRidge…and even then, in several cases, SandRidge failed to disclose the full background of the transactions …but just in case…the Board amended Tom Ward’s employment agreement (in December 2011), in a manner that essentially allows much more extensive competition by Mr. Ward and entities associated with the Ward family. Unless Mr. Ward is the actual operator, he can now invest directly and openly in any competitive efforts!

11 Should WCT Resources be presumed to be “independent” of SandRidge ? Ward Children’s Trust, WCT Resources and SandRidge have historical overlap in addresses, employees, and sources of funding. We believe it is absurd for the company to tell stockholders to simply presume the entities’ independence from SandRidge. WCT Resources is owned by trusts established by Tom and Sch’ree Ward for the benefit of Tom Ward’s children (Ward Children’s Trust). The trustee of Ward Children’s Trust is Scott C. Hartman, who we believe is a SandRidge employee The company states that WCT Resources is currently run by Trent Ward, Tom Ward’s son WCT Resources appears to have a fraction of the approximately 2,500 full - time employees that SandRidge Energy does. The company’s phone voicemail lists just seven total employees in its directory The address of WCT Resources was the same as SandRidge’s headquarters until last year In some prior years, based on a comparison of signatures, it appears that Tom Ward signed company documents The current Chief Operating Officer of WCT Resources, Scott White, appears to have been a land manager at SandRidge until as recently as 2011 There have been numerous transactions between Ward family members, or entities associated with Ward family members, and WCT Resources. We have documented transactions between TLW Land & Cattle, 192 Investments, or Sch’ree Ward (Tom Ward’s wife), and WCT Resources WCT Resources is just one of several entities controlled by members of the Ward family which appear to be active participants in the purchase and sale of land and mineral rights in the Mississippian

WCT Resources could either choose to participate in a $3.2 million well, or receive a combination of cash bonuses and royalty interests instead ($1,700 per acre; OR, $1,500 per acre and 6.25% royalty; OR $1,200 per acre and 7.5% royalty). We do not know what WCT Resources elected to do, but this could be one method to monetize their extensive adjacent land position in the Mississippian. ¹ Alfalfa County: 24 - 28N - 11W (1) October 2010: (2) July 2011: (3) October 2011: (4) October 2012: SD acquires acreage TLW acquires adjacent acreage TLW sells acreage to WCT SD granted pooling relief SD SD SD SD TLW TLW SD SD WCT WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD SD SD SD TLW TLW SD SD WCT WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD SD SD SD SD SD SD / WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT SD / WCT
