Footnotes
  1. The indirect amount previously reported by Mr. Lawing has also been adjusted to reflect a distribution by Copano Partners Trust of 2,926,908 CPNO common units to its indirect beneficiaries on November 3, 2010, including the Estate of John R. Eckel, Jr. (the "Eckel Estate"), Frio Partners, Inc. ("Frio") and certain grantor trusts, including Copano Bay Trust Number Eleven ("CBT 11"). This distribution did not affect Mr. Lawing's pecuniary interest and merely resulted in a change in the form of beneficial ownership. Mr. Lawing has omitted the remaining 917,992 common units, which were distributed to grantor trusts other than CBT 11, because he has no pecuniary interest in such common units.
  2. Mr. Lawing serves as personal representative of the Eckel Estate.
  3. Mr. Lawing is a trustee and the sole beneficiary of CBT 11.
  4. These units are owned directly by Frio Partners, Inc. which is a wholly owned subsidiary of FDEC Equipment Company, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Frio USA, Inc. which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Frio Drilling & Exploration Co., which is wholly owned by Frio Management Trust. The Eckel Estate is the sole beneficiary of this trust.
