Explanation of Responses:
1. Purchased through the Company's 401(k) plan from April 11, 2007, through December 12, 2007. The information in this report is based on a plan statement dated as of November 30, 2007.
2. 9,025 shares of common stock indirectly held by the reporting person in the Southwestern Energy Company 401(k) Plan (the "401(k) Plan") investment fund were previously reported in Table 1 as a non-derivative security directly owned by the reporting person. An adjustment has been made to reflect the total common stock indirectly held in the 401(k) Plan investment fund on behalf of the insider.
