BACKGROUND INFORMATION Located just north of the Grapevine Mills Mall near the northwest corner of East Grapevine Mills Circle and Stars and Stripes Way, special use request SU09-06 was approved for the development of two gas wells. Additional stipulations included the addition of a Learning Center to the site and designation of the distribution pipeline network. The Site Plan Review Committee at their June 2, 2010 meeting considered and approved an additional eight wells to the subject site bringing the total number of wells on site to ten. At a March 23, 2011 meeting the Site Plan Review Committee approved a request on the subject site to increase the size of the well pad site by 28,000 square feet (70 feet by 400 feet) to the north to accommodate water separator equipment and storage tanks necessary for the production phase of operation. Seventeen storage tanks (eight feet in height, ten feet in diameter) and seventeen separators (fourteen feet in length, four feet in diameter) were approved to be located along the northern edge of the expanded site. The eight foot masonry screening fence was relocated and expanded to screen the enlarged site. With this request the applicant proposes the addition of seven more wells to the site bringing the total number of wells on site to seventeen (17) if approved. No other changes or additions are proposed. Seven wells of the ten that have been previously approved have been drilled at this time and are in the production phase of the process. The remaining three wells and if approved the additional seven, will be drilled on a 90-120 day schedule with an anticipated completion date by the end of 2013. Gas production and transport on the site will be suspended during the drilling and fracing of the remaining wells. See the attached letter. O:\ZCU\SU 11-02.4sprc I, h __ C e eak sa e ENERGY October 5, 2011 Mr. Ron Stombaugh Planning and Development Manager 200 S. Main Street Grapevine, TX 76051 Attn: Mr. Ron Stombaugh Re: SUP Amendment for Grapevine Mills Pad Site Dear Mr. Ron Stombaugh, Dusty Anderson Manager — Field Permitting Chesapeake formally requests permission to add seven (7) wells to the existing Grapevine Mills pad site. As part of our partnership with the City to develop off of already existing padsites rather than pursue new padsites, this request is necessary to accommodate the operations possible from Grapevine Mills. Chesapeake has discovered some opportunities to further develop the minerals surrounding Grapevine Mills and is actively working with Grapevine citizens to make this happen. Since operations typically occur 90-120 days after drilling is completed, a good estimate is that Chesapeake will drill the proposed wells on the Grapevine Mills padsite by the end of 2013. As part of Chesapeake's Standard Operating Procedures, before future wells are drilled on this pad, some of the currently producing wells will be shut in. It is, though, safe for some wells to remain in production throughout the drilling process. Seven (7) wells have been drilled and are in production. Well names and production dates are: Grapevine Mills 111-1-41-1, March 20-27, 2011; Gateway Gibson 1 H -3H, March 24, May 31, and March 19 of 2011, respectively. In regards to our previous request for the freshwater pond extension, Chesapeake will be drilling a well by December 21, 2011. As always, all timeframes are tentative and subject to change. I appreciate you meeting with Chesapeake staff and taking the time to review our request.

When originally drafted, the ordinance required the fresh water pond to be removed within 60 days of the fracturing of the first well. A subsequent amendment to the ordinance was made by Council on March 16, 2010 to allow the pond to remain for nine months following fracturing operations. Given the reduction in production operations because of the current low demand for natural gas the ordinance was amended again to provide a process for timely consideration of the fresh water pond and allow it to remain if deemed necessary by the Committee.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION Located just north of the Grapevine Mills Mall near the northwest corner of East Grapevine Mills Circle and Stars and Stripes Way, special use request SU09-06 was approved for the development of two gas wells. Additional stipulations included the addition of a Learning Center to the site and designation of the distribution pipeline network. The Site Plan Review Committee at their June 2, 2010 meeting considered and approved an additional eight wells to the subject site bringing the total number of wells on site to ten. At a March 23, 2011 meeting the Site Plan Review Committee approved a request on the subject site to increase the size of the well pad site by 28,000 square feet (70 feet by 400 feet) to the north to accommodate water separator equipment and storage tanks necessary for the production phase of operation. Seventeen storage tanks (eight feet in height, ten feet in diameter) and seventeen separators (fourteen feet in length, four feet in diameter) were approved to be located along the northern edge of the expanded site. The eight foot masonry screening fence was relocated and expanded to screen the enlarged site. At the November 2, 2011 meeting the Site Plan Review Committee approved a request on the subject site to allow the addition of seven more wells bringing the total number of wells on site to seventeen (17). Seven wells of the ten that had previously been approved have been drilled and are in the production phase of the process. Drilling operations have since been discontinued on the remaining ten wells. At the March 20, 2012 meeting the City Council amended the Oil and Gas Well Drilling Operations regulations to allow for an extension of up to one year for the fresh water pond to remain upon review and approval by the Site Plan Review Committee. Given the reduction in production operations because of the current low demand for natural O:\ZCU\SU 11-02.43sprc gas the ordinance was amended to provide a process for timely consideration of the fresh water pond and allow it to remain if deemed necessary by the Committee. When originally drafted, the ordinance required the fresh water pond to be removed within 60 days of the fracturing of the first well. A subsequent amendment to the ordinance allowed the pond to remain for nine months following fracturing operations. At the June 6, 2012 Committee meeting approval was granted for a one year extension to allow the fresh water pond to remain on the site. Ten wells still remained at that time to be drilled; however, drilling operations were discontinued. At an April 24, 2013 meeting of the Committee, approval was granted for another one year extension for the fresh water pond to remain on site. With this request the applicant is once again asking to allow the fresh water pond to remain. Of the 17 wells approved on the site, seven have been drilled and are producing—ten yet remain to be developed. See the attached letter. /rs O:\ZC U\S U 11-02.43sprc April 29, 2014 City of Grapevine 200 S. Main Street Grapevine, Texas 76051 Attn: Mr. Ron Stombaugh Planning and Development Manager Re: Grapevine Mills — Fresh Water Pond Extension Dear Mr. Stombaugh: Julie Jones, PE Civil Engineer Chesapeake Operating, Inc. respectfully requests a one year extension for the Grapevine Mills fresh water pond to remain in-place. Per Grapevine City Ordinance 2012-12, Section 2e: "If drilling is discontinued for a period of one year, an extension for the pond to remain in place for a period of one year may be requested by the permit holder. Such request shall be reviewed by the Site Plan Review Committee and may be approved for good cause. The Site Plan Review Committee may approve more than one extension provided sufficient notification is submitted by the applicant, and the site has been and continues to be maintained and in compliance with all city ordinances." We believe an additional one year extension will allow for future drilling activities to occur and the pond utilized at the Grapevine Mills Pad location. Although the price of natural gas impacted the Barnett drilling activity last year, there are good indications that drilling will increase over the next twelve months. There are currently 7 producing wells off this padsite with future wells planned to fully develop these units. This site will continue to be maintained to the highest standards and in compliance with all City ordinances. We appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from you.

Located just north of the Grapevine Mills Mall near the northwest corner of East Grapevine Mills Circle and Stars and Stripes Way, special use request SU09-06 was approved for the development of two gas wells. Additional stipulations included the addition of a Learning Center to the site and designation of the distribution pipeline network. The Site Plan Review Committee at their June 2, 2010 meeting considered and approved an additional eight wells to the subject site bringing the total number of wells on site to ten. At a March 23, 2011 meeting the Site Plan Review Committee approved a request on the subject site to increase the size of the well pad site by 28,000 square feet (70 feet by 400 feet) to the north to accommodate water separator equipment and storage tanks necessary for the production phase of operation. Seventeen storage tanks (eight feet in height, ten feet in diameter) and seventeen separators (fourteen feet in length, four feet in diameter) were approved to be located along the northern edge of the expanded site. The eight foot masonry screening fence was relocated and expanded to screen the enlarged site. At the November 2, 2011 meeting the Site Plan Review Committee approved a request on the subject site to allow the addition of seven more wells bringing the total number of wells on site to seventeen (17). Seven wells of the ten that had previously been approved have been drilled and are in the production phase of the process. Drilling operations have since been discontinued on the remaining ten wells. At the March 20, 2012 meeting the City Council amended the Oil and Gas Well Drilling Operations regulations to allow for an extension of up to one year for the fresh water pond to remain upon review and approval by the Site Plan Review Committee. Given the reduction in production operations because of the current low demand for natural O:\ZC U\S U 11-02.44sprc gas the ordinance was amended to provide a process for timely consideration of the fresh water pond and allow it to remain if deemed necessary by the Committee. When originally drafted, the ordinance required the fresh water pond to be removed within 60 days of the fracturing of the first well. A subsequent amendment to the ordinance allowed the pond to remain for nine months following fracturing operations. At the June 6, 2012 Committee meeting approval was granted for a one year extension to allow the fresh water pond to remain on the site. Ten wells still remained at that time to be drilled; however, drilling operations were discontinued. At an April 24, 2013 meeting of the Committee, approval was granted for another one year extension for the fresh water pond to remain on site. At the Committee's June 4, 2014 meeting a one year extension was granted to allow the fresh water pond to remain on the site. Of the 17 wells approved on the site, seven have been drilled and are producing—ten yet remain to be developed. See the attached letter. With this request the applicant is asking for a one year extension to allow the fresh water pond to remain on the site. Of the 17 wells approved on the site, seven are producing wells and the remaining ten are awaiting development. See the attached letter and promotional material relative to the site. /rs O:\ZC U\S U 11-02.44sp rc April 22, 2015 City of Grapevine Attn: Mr. Ron Stombaugh, Assistant Director Planning & Development 200 S. Main Street Grapevine, Texas 76051 Dear Mr. Stombaugh: Lynda Gearheart Senior Public Affairs Representative APR 2 3 2015 Per our recent discussion, Chesapeake Operating, Inc. respectfully requests a one year extension for the Grapevine Mills Fresh -water pond to remain in-place. Per Grapevine City Ordinance 2012-12, Section 2e: "If drilling is discontinued for a period of one year, an extension for the pond to pond to remain in place for a period of one year may be requested by the permit holder. Such request shall be reviewed by the Site Plan Review Committee and may be approved for good cause. The Site Plan Review Committee may approve more than one extension provided sufficient notification is submitted by the applicant, and the site has been and continues to be maintained and in compliance with all city ordinances. " We are extremely hopeful that an additional one year extension will allow for future. Drilling activities to occur and the pond utilized at the Grapevine Mills pad site location. As you are aware, the steep decline in the price of oil and natural gas is responsible for a dramatic slowdown of drilling and production in the Barnett Shale. Despite the impact that this global market condition is having on the oil and gas industry nationally Chesapeake Energy remains highly committed to our holdings in North Texas. This padsite will continue to be maintained and in compliance with all city ordinances as we continue to produce gas at this site. In addition, we are deiighted to operate The Chesapeake Learning Center at this location which has proved to be of interest to local citizens as well as tourists. It is the only opportunity in the Barnett Shale where visitors can look directly into an operating drill site, consequently, Chesapeake and other industry peers utilize this site for media tours. We appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from you.
