Explanation of Responses:
1. The vesting of phantom units on January 15, 2013 resulted in a net gain of 47,625 directly held common units. To cover the cost of taxes associated with this vesting, the issuer withheld 5833 common units.
2. Each phantom unit was the economic equivalent of one EVEP common unit at the close of business on the vesting date.
3. DSEA II, LP, is a limited partnership of which Mr. Houser and his wife manage the general partner. Mr. Houser disclaims beneficial ownership of the common units held by DSEA II, LP except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
4. Represents units held equally by trusts established for each of Mr. Houser's four children.
5. The totals for units directly owned by Mr. Houser and DSEA II, LP were reported in the wrong rows in the Form 4 filed December 12, 2012. That has been corrected in this report.
