Explanation of Responses:

1. Date request was made by Issuer to Issuer's transfer agent to issue common units to those grantees whose phantom units vested on February 15, 2014, pursuant to the Marlin Midstream Parners, LP 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan.

2. Represents the conversion upon vesting of phantom units into common units. On August 14, 2013, the reporting person was granted 5,000 phantom units of which 5,000 units vested on February 15, 2014. Such phantom units were previously reported in Table II on a Form 4 filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on August 23, 2013. The common units into which such phantom units converted is reported in Table I on this Form 4.

3. Each phantom unit is the economic equivalent of one common unit (limited partner interest) and will entitle the grantee to receive one common unit or an amount of cash equal to the fair market value of a common unit upon the vesting of the phantom unit.

4. Phantom units do not expire.
