On March 1, 2013, TPG-Axon Management LP and its affiliates (collectively, "TPG-Axon") issued a press release urging stockholders of SandRidge Energy, Inc. ("SandRidge") to return their signed and dated green consent cards prior to March 15, 2013, the deadline for submitting consents. In addition, the press release announced that TPG-Axon has submitted a notification to SandRidge, stating its intent to present proposals for stockholder approval (including to destagger SandRidge's Board of Directors and remove and replace the directors not up for election at the annual meeting) and to nominate three individuals for election to the directorships with terms that are presently scheduled to expire at the annual meeting of stockholders of SandRidge. The notification, which is unrelated to the ongoing consent solicitation, was made in order to meet SandRidge's proposal submission deadline under its existing corporate bylaws as a matter of prudence and procedure to preserve TPG-Axon's options. Under the current consent solicitation, consents are due by March 15, 2013. Under the rules of SandRidge’s regular proxy process, director nominee submissions are due by March 1, 2013, before the outcome of the March 15, 2013 vote is known. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 1.

 

Also on March 1, 2013, TPG-Axon posted an additional reference to the "Press Releases" section of www.shareholdersforsandridge.com. A copy of the additional reference is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.
