(1)	On August 21, 2012, Hi-Crush Proppants LLC ("Proppants") sold 12,937,500 common units representing limited partner interests in Hi-Crush Partners LP to the public in connection with the initial public offering of the Issuer at a price of $17.00 per common unit.
(2)	This Form 4 is being filed jointly by Proppants, 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 Issuer owned directly or indirectly by Proppants.
