Explanation of Responses:
1. The restricted stock units were awarded under The Energy XXI Services, LLC 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan on October 20, 2014. Each restricted stock unit represents the contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock or, at the option of the Issuer, the cash equivalent.
2. Represents the first annual vesting of Mr. Busmire's restricted stock units granted on October 20, 2014. Mr. Busmire elected to pay a tax liability arising upon vesting of the units by having the Issuer withhold shares that would have otherwise been issued to Mr. Busmire. Of the 23,675 shares withheld, 13,675 of the shares withheld had a value equal to the tax liability and the remaining 10,000 shares were delivered pursuant to a domestic relations order. The restricted stock units vest in three annual installments beginning on October 20, 2015. The restricted stock units vested 20% on October 20, 2015 and will vest the remaining 40% on October 20, 2016 and 40% on October 20, 2017.
