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) Each phantom unit represents the economic equivalent of a unit representing a limited partner interest in Legacy Reserves LP.
(2) Reflects the closing price of the units on February 17, 2017.
(3) The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein, and the inclusion of these units in this report shall not be deemed an admission of beneficial ownership of all of the reported units for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.
(4) Includes 1,020,060 units owned by Kyle A. McGraw Family Holdings, Ltd., an entity partially owned by Mr. McGraw.
(5) Phantom units granted on or after March 3, 2014 vest on February 18th in the third year after grant and are payable in units.
(6) Pursuant to the achievement of certain objective, performance-based criteria, none of the phantom units eligible to vest for the year ended December 31, 2016, granted on March 3, 2014, vested and therefore 17,970 phantom units were forfeited. With respect to the subjective phantom unit grants, 18,868 phantom units vested.
(7) Includes the remaining 89,310 phantom units and 54,783 phantom units from the phantom units granted on February 24, 2015 and June 22, 2016, respectively.
