issuance of an additional $78 million in aggregate principal amount of its 8.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the &#147;<B>Notes</B>&#148;) to an affiliate of EIG Global Energy Partners&nbsp;(&#147;<B>EIG</B>&#148;) in connection with the closing
of the previously disclosed acquisition of the membership interests of Pi&ntilde;on Gathering Company, LLC from EIG. The Notes were issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
&#147;<B>Securities Act</B>&#148;), in reliance on Regulation D under the Securities Act and will not be registered under the Securities Act.<B> </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B></B>The principal terms of the Notes are governed by the indenture, dated as of June&nbsp;10, 2015 (the &#147;<B>Indenture</B>&#148;), by
and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries named therein (the &#147;<B>Guarantors</B>&#148;) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the &#147;<B>Trustee</B>&#148;). Pursuant to the Indenture, the Notes will mature on June&nbsp;1,
2020; <B></B><I>provided</I><B></B>, <B></B><I>however</I><B></B>, that if on October&nbsp;15, 2019, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Company&#146;s 8.75% Senior Notes due 2020 that shall not have been cancelled or retired as a
result of a redemption, repurchase or other acquisition or shall have not otherwise been discharged or defeased exceeds $100.0 million, the Notes will mature on October&nbsp;16, 2019. Interest shall accrue on the Notes from October&nbsp;21, 2015 and

second-priority liens on all of the Company&#146;s and the Guarantors&#146; assets that secure the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June&nbsp;10, 2015 by and among the Company, as borrower, Royal Bank of Canada, as

Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of June&nbsp;10, 2015 by and among Royal Bank of Canada, as priority lien agent, and the Trustee, as the collateral trustee, the security interest in those assets that secure the Notes and the guarantees will be
contractually subordinated to liens thereon that secure the Credit Facility and certain other permitted indebtedness. Consequently, the Notes and the guarantees will be effectively subordinated to the Credit Facility and such other indebtedness to
the extent of the value of such assets.<B> </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Prior to June&nbsp;1, 2017, the Company may redeem all or any portion of the Notes at a
redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, plus a &#147;make-whole&#148; premium (as defined in the Indenture). In addition, prior to June&nbsp;1,
2017, the Company may, at its option, on one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate original principal amount of the notes in an amount not greater than the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a redemption price of
108.750% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On and after
June&nbsp;1, 2017, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount thereof) equal to 104.375% for the 12-month period beginning June&nbsp;1, 2017, 102.188% for the 12-month
period beginning June&nbsp;1, 2018, and 100.000% beginning on June&nbsp;1, 2019 and thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The Notes are guaranteed by all of the Company&#146;s existing material subsidiaries (other than SandRidge

with affiliates; (viii)&nbsp;make investments; and (ix)&nbsp;refinance certain indebtedness. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications. If at any time the Notes are rated investment grade by either Standard&nbsp;&amp;
Poor&#146;s Ratings Services or Moody&#146;s Investor&#146;s Service, Inc. and no default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture, certain of the covenants and related Events of Default (as defined in the Indenture) will be suspended so

among other things, a failure to pay the Notes when due at maturity, upon acceleration or redemption, failure to pay interest for 30 days, the Company&#146;s failure to comply with certain covenants relating to merger, consolidation or sale of
assets, the Company&#146;s failure to comply for 60 days following notice with any of the other covenants or agreements in the Indenture, a default or other failure by the Company to make required payments under other indebtedness of the Company or
any Guarantor or significant subsidiary having an outstanding principal amount of $50.0 million or more which results in such indebtedness being due or payable prior to its maturity or which gives the holder thereof the right to accelerate such
indebtedness, the Company&#146;s or any Guarantor&#146;s or significant subsidiary&#146;s failure to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $50.0 million and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. In the case of an Event of Default
arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the notes to be due and payable immediately. </P>
