Acquisitions Update
Year to date, MEMP has closed approximately $1.1 billion in acquisitions across three basins, including properties acquired in the Eagle Ford trend in South Texas, a drop down of East Texas properties from Memorial Resource Development LLC, and the recently completed oil transaction in Wyoming. Estimated total proved reserves on the announced acquisitions are 563 Bcfe (74% oil, 24% NGLs and 2% natural gas) and the combined estimated net production at the time of each announcement was 49 MMcfe/d.
Hedging Summary
Consistent with its hedging policy, MEMP strengthened its overall hedge portfolio and executed additional hedges on a portion of its expected oil and natural gas volumes through 2019. MEMP has entered into natural gas, crude oil and NGL derivatives contracts covering the period from 2014 through December 2019. MEMP’s hedging policy is designed to reduce the impact to cash flows from commodity price and interest rate volatility.
The following table reflects the volumes of MEMP’s production covered by commodity derivative contracts and the average fixed or floor prices at which production is hedged. Targeted average net production estimate represents the production required to reach the lower boundary of the annual production range in MEMP’s 2014 full year guidance. All of MEMP’s hedges are costless, fixed-price swaps and collars.

Financial Update
Total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2014 was $1.159 billion, including $459.0 million under MEMP’s $2.0 billion multi-year revolving credit facility and $700.0 million of senior notes due 2021. As of June 30, 2014, MEMP’s liquidity included $411.0 million available borrowing capacity.
On July 1, 2014, MEMP closed the previously announced acquisition of oil producing properties in Wyoming for approximately $915 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. In conjunction with the closing of this acquisition, MEMP amended its revolving credit facility, increasing the borrowing base from $870 million to $1.44 billion.
On July 9, 2014, MEMP completed a public offering of 9,890,000 common units resulting in aggregate net proceeds of approximately $220.3 million. On July 17, 2014, MEMP completed a private placement of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior notes due 2022 resulting in net proceeds of approximately $484.9 million. Proceeds from the offerings were used to pay down a portion of MEMP’s revolving credit facility and for general partnership purposes. As a result of the senior notes offering, the borrowing base under MEMP’s credit facility was automatically reduced to $1.315 billion pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement.
Total debt outstanding as of August 1, 2014, was $1.82 billion, including $620.0 million of debt outstanding under MEMP’s revolving credit facility and $1,200.0 million of senior notes. The revolving credit facility had $695.0 million of availability, which management believes will provide ample financial flexibility to continue pursuing MEMP’s acquisition growth strategy.
Second Quarter 2014 Cash Distribution
As announced on July 25, 2014, the board of directors of MEMP’s general partner declared a cash distribution of $0.55 per unit for the second quarter of 2014.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release may include “forward-looking statements.” All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this press release that address activities, events or developments that MEMP expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Terminology such as “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “project,” “intend,” “estimate,” “believe,” “target,” “continue,” “potential,” the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology often identify forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain assumptions made by MEMP based on its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties,
many of which are beyond the control of MEMP, which may cause MEMP’s actual results to differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forward-looking statements. Please read MEMP’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including “Risk Factors” in MEMP’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and if applicable, MEMP’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, for a discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those in such forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. Except as required by law, MEMP undertakes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after this press release.
Estimated Proved Reserves
The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC’s definitions for such terms. Estimates of reserves in the “Acquisitions Update” section of this press release are based on economic assumptions with regard to commodity prices that differ from the prices required by the SEC (historical 12 month average) to be used in calculating reserves estimates prepared in accordance with SEC definitions and guidelines. In addition, reserve engineering is a complex and subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. The estimates of reserves in the “Acquisitions Update” section of this press release were prepared by MEMP’s internal reserve engineers and are based on various assumptions, including assumptions related to oil and natural gas prices as discussed above, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds. MEMP’s internal estimates of reserves may not be indicative of or may differ materially from the year-end estimates of MEMP’s reserves prepared by a third party as a result of the SEC pricing and other assumptions employed by an independent reserve engineering firm.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow. The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial
measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. MEMP’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, net cash flows provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. MEMP’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate such measures in the same manner as MEMP does.
Adjusted EBITDA. MEMP defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss, plus interest expense; income tax expense; depreciation, depletion and amortization; impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets; accretion of asset retirement obligations; losses on commodity derivative contracts; cash settlements received on commodity derivative instruments; losses on sale of assets; unit-based compensation expenses; exploration costs; acquisition related costs; amortization of investment premium; and other non-routine items, less interest income; income tax benefit; gains on commodity derivative contracts; cash settlements paid on commodity derivative instruments; gains on sale of assets and other non-routine items. Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of MEMP’s financial statements, such as investors, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess: (1) the financial performance of its assets without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis; (2) the ability of its assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest, support MEMP’s indebtedness and make distributions on its units; and (3) the viability of projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities. Since Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income or loss and because these measures may vary among other companies, the Adjusted EBITDA data presented in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net cash flows provided by operating activities.
Distributable Cash Flow. MEMP defines distributable cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash income taxes; cash interest expense; and estimated maintenance capital expenditures. Management compares the distributable cash flow MEMP generates to the cash distributions it expects to pay MEMP’s partners. Using this metric, management computes MEMP’s distribution coverage ratio. Distributable cash flow is an important non-GAAP financial measure for MEMP’s limited partners since it serves as an indicator of MEMP’s success in providing a cash return on investment. Specifically, this financial measure indicates to investors whether or not MEMP is generating cash flows at a level that can sustain or support an increase in its quarterly cash
distributions. Distributable cash flow is also a quantitative standard used by the investment community with respect to publicly traded partnerships because the value of a partnership unit is, in part, measured by its yield, which is based on the amount of cash distributions a partnership can pay to a unitholder. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to distributable cash flow is net cash flows provided by operating activities.
