Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	On June 11, 2012, Cheniere Class B Units Holdings, LLC (CBUH), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person, acquired 11,111,111 Class B Units from the Issuer for $15.00 per unit. Under certain circumstances specified in the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership for the Issuer, such units are convertible into Common Units of the Issuer at a rate equal to the Class B Conversion Value of a Class B Unit (which value will increase at a compounded rate of 3.5% per quarter, subject to an additional upward adjustment for certain equity and debt financings) divided by $15.00 (as adjusted for splits and combinations). The Class B Units will be convertible only upon certain events. For further information on the events that trigger conversion and other details regarding the conversion, see the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (attached as Exhibit 3.1 to Form 8 K filed by the Issuer on June 12, 2012).
(2)	The Reporting Person directly owns 100% of Cheniere LNG, Inc., which owns 100% of Cheniere LNG Terminals, Inc., which owns 100% of Cheniere LNG Holdings, LLC, which owns 100% of CBUH. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported on this Form 4 except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, and the inclusion of these securities in this report shall not be deemed an admission of beneficial ownership of these securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.
