Explanation of Responses:
( 1 )These Common Units representing limited partner interests were sold by the reporting person in a registered underwritten secondary offering pursuant to an underwriting agreement entered into on November 22, 2013.
( 2 )Represents public offering price of $31.15 per Common Unit representing limited partner interests less the underwriters discount of $0.67 per Common Unit.
( 3 )This Form 4 is being filed jointly by Hi-Crush Proppants LLC, Avista Capital Partners II, LP ("ACP II"), Avista Capital Partners (Offshore) II-A, LP ("ACP Off II-A"), Avista Capital Partners (Offshore) II, LP ("ACP Off II"), ACP HIP Splitter, LP ("HIP Splitter"), ACP HIP Splitter (Offshore), LP ("HIP Splitter Off") and Avista Capital Partners II GP, LLC ("ACP II GP"). ACP II, ACP Off II-A and ACP Off II own 58% of the membership interests of Proppants through HIP Splitter and HIP Splitter Off. Each of ACP II, ACP Off II-A and ACP Off II is controlled by ACP II GP, its general partner. ACP II, ACP Off II-A, ACP Off II, HIP Splitter, HIP Splitter Off and ACP II GP may therefore be deemed to beneficially own securities of the Partnership owned directly or indirectly by Proppants.

Remarks:
Proppants has the right to appoint all of the directors of the Board of Directors of the General Partner. Therefore, each of Proppants, ACP II, ACP Off II-A, ACP Off II, HIP Splitter, HIP Splitter Off and ACP II GP may be deemed a director by deputization.

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
