We understand that this report may be used for IRS or SEC purposes. This report has been prepared for Energy & Exploration Partners, LLC pursuant to the rules, regulations and guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission, Item 1202 (a) (8) of Regulation S-K, for reporting corporate reserves and future net revenue. The results of these evaluations are summarized below:

The discounted cash flow value shown above should not be construed to represent an estimate of fair market value by Cawley, Gillespie & Associates, Inc. In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines, the future net cash flow, operating income (BFIT), has been discounted at an annual rate of 10% to determine its “present worth”. The discounted value, “present worth”, is indicative of the time value of money.
As to the assumptions, methods and procedures used in connection with the preparation of this report, prices were forecast in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules and guidelines. The prices are determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month benchmark price for each of the twelve months prior to the effective date June 1, 2014. The 12-month average benchmark Henry Hub spot gas price of $4.07 per MMBtu and the 12-month average benchmark WTI Cushing spot oil price of $99.38 per barrel (source: INO.com) were used. The oil and gas prices were held constant throughout the life of the properties. The prices were adjusted for gravity, quality, heating value, shrinkage, transportation and marketing. For these properties, the resulting oil and gas prices are $102.091 per barrel and $4.534 per MCF, respectively. The resulting plant products price is $45.417 per barrel.
For these properties, the proved producing reserves are forecast using the production performance and analogy methods. The proved non-producing and undeveloped reserves are forecast using the analogy method. An on-site field inspection of the properties has not been performed. The mechanical operation or conditions of the wells and their related facilities have not been examined nor have the wells been tested by Cawley, Gillespie & Associates, Inc. Possible environmental liability related to the properties has not been investigated nor considered.
The reserve classifications conform to the definitions and criteria of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The reserves and economics are predicated on the regulatory agency classifications, rules, policies, laws, taxes and royalties in effect on the effective date except as noted herein. The possible effects of changes in legislation or other Federal or State restrictive actions which could affect the reserves and economics have not been considered. We are not aware of any legislative changes or restrictive actions that may possibly impact the reserves or economics as presented. Possible environmental liability related to the properties has not been investigated nor considered. The assumptions, data, methods and procedures as described are appropriate for the purpose of this report. All reserve estimates represent our best judgment based on data available at the time of preparation and assumptions as to future economic and regulatory conditions. Due to the inherent uncertainties of reserves estimates, future production rates, commodity prices, costs and expenses, it should be realized that the reserves actually recovered, the revenue received and the actual cost incurred could be more or less than the estimated amounts.
The reserves estimates were based on interpretations of factual data furnished by your office, Energy & Exploration Partners, LLC, or Treadstone Energy Partners. Oil and gas prices, pricing differentials, expense and cost data, tax values, the subject wells and ownership interests were supplied by you, Energy & Exploration Partners, LLC, or Treadstone Energy Partners and were accepted as furnished. To some extent, information from public records has been used to check or supplement these data. The basic engineering and geological data were subject to third party reservations and qualifications. Nothing has come to our attention, however, that would cause us to
