CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus and documents incorporated herein by reference contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe
harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included
in this prospectus or incorporated herein by reference that address activities, events or developments that we expect, believe or anticipate
will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain assumptions we made based on
management's experience, perception of historical trends and technical analyses, current conditions, anticipated future developments and
other factors believed to be appropriate and reasonable by management. When used in this prospectus, words such as "will," "potential,"
"believe," "estimate," "intend," "expect," "may," "should," "anticipate," "could," "plan," "predict," "project," "profile," "model," "strategy,"
"future" or their negatives or the statements that include these words or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or
outcomes, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words.
In particular, statements, express or implied, concerning our future operating results and returns or our ability to replace or increase
reserves, increase production, or generate income or cash flows are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of performance. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable and are
based on reasonable assumptions, no assurance can be given that these assumptions are accurate or that any of these expectations will be
achieved (in full or at all) or will prove to have been correct. Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from
the expectations reflected in the forward looking statements include, among others:
·
our ability to successfully execute our business and financial strategies;
·
our ability to replace the reserves we produce through drilling and property acquisitions;
·
our ability to close our recently announced Catarina acquisition described below;
·
the realized benefits of the acreage acquired in our various acquisitions, including our pending Catarina acquisition, and
other assets and liabilities assumed in connection therewith;
·
the extent to which our drilling plans are successful in economically developing our acreage in, and to produce reserves and
achieve anticipated production levels from, our existing and future projects;
·
the accuracy of reserve estimates, which by their nature involve the exercise of professional judgment and may therefore be
imprecise;
·
the extent to which we can optimize reserve recovery and economically develop our plays utilizing horizontal and vertical
drilling, advanced completion technologies and hydraulic fracturing;
·
our ability to successfully execute our hedging strategy and the resulting realized prices therefrom;
·
competition in the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry for employees and other personnel, equipment,
materials and services and, related thereto, the availability and cost of employees and other personnel, equipment, materials
and services;
·
our ability to access the credit and capital markets to obtain financing on terms we deem acceptable, if at all, and to
otherwise satisfy our capital expenditure requirements;
·
the availability, proximity and capacity of, and costs associated with, gathering, processing, compression and transportation
facilities;

·
the timing and extent of changes in prices for, and demand for, crude oil and condensate, natural gas liquids ("NGLs"),
natural gas and related commodities;
·
our ability to compete with other companies in the oil and natural gas industry;
·
the impact of, and changes in, government policies, laws and regulations, including tax laws and regulations, environmental
laws and regulations relating to air emissions, waste disposal, hydraulic fracturing and access to and use of water, laws and
regulations imposing conditions and restrictions on drilling and completion operations and laws and regulations with
respect to derivatives and hedging activities;
·
developments in oil-producing and natural gas-producing countries;
·
our ability to effectively integrate acquired crude oil and natural gas properties into our operations, fully identify existing
and potential problems with respect to such properties and accurately estimate reserves, production and costs with respect
to such properties;
·
the extent to which our crude oil and natural gas properties operated by others are operated successfully and economically;
·
the use of competing energy sources and the development of alternative energy sources;
·
unexpected results of litigation filed against us;
·
the extent to which we incur uninsured losses and liabilities or losses and liabilities in excess of our insurance coverage;
and
·
the other factors described under the heading "Risk Factors" beginning on page 10 of this prospectus and the risk factors
described under the heading "Risk Factors" included in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2013, which is incorporated by reference herein, and any updates to those factors set forth in our
subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K.
In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events anticipated by our forward-looking statements may not occur, and, if
any of such events do, we may not have correctly anticipated the timing of their occurrence or the extent of their impact on our actual
results. Accordingly, you should not place any undue reliance on any of our forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement
speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking
statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. These cautionary
statements qualify all forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf.

year ended December 31, 2013, which is incorporated by reference herein and any updates to those factors set forth in our subsequent

Sanchez Energy Corporation
We are an independent exploration and production company focused on the exploration, acquisition and development of
unconventional oil and natural gas resources in the onshore U.S. Gulf Coast region, with a current focus on the Eagle Ford Shale in South
Texas and, to a lesser extent, the Tuscaloosa Marine Shale ("TMS") in Mississippi and Louisiana. We have accumulated approximately
120,000 net leasehold acres in the oil and condensate windows of the Eagle Ford Shale and, as of March 31, 2014, we had accumulated
approximately 40,000 net leasehold acres in what we believe to be the core of the TMS. We are currently focused on the horizontal
development of significant resource potential from the Eagle Ford Shale, with plans to invest a majority of our 2014 drilling and
completion budget in this area.
We are continuously evaluating opportunities to increase both our acreage and our producing assets through acquisitions. Our
successful acquisition of such assets will depend on both the opportunities and the financing alternatives available to us at the time we
consider such opportunities.
Our principal executive offices are located at 1111 Bagby Street, Suite 1800, Houston, Texas 77002, and our phone number is
(713) 783-8000. Our website address is www.sanchezenergycorp.com. Information on our website (except for documents incorporated by
