Director Nomination Process

In assessing the qualifications of candidates for nomination as director, our Governance Committee and our Board consider, in addition to qualifications set forth in our bylaws, each potential nominee's:


•	Personal and professional integrity, experience, reputation and skills;


•	Ability and willingness to devote the time and effort necessary to be an effective Board member; and


•	Commitment to act in the best interests of Magnum Hunter and its stockholders.

Consideration is also given to the requirement under the NYSE listing standards that the Board be composed of a majority of independent directors, as well as the qualifications required for membership on our Board committees under the NYSE listing standards and various other regulations.

In addition, the Board looks for nominees who possess a broad range of business experience, diversity ("diversity" being broadly construed to mean a variety of opinions, perspectives, experiences and backgrounds, such as gender, race and ethnicity differences, as well as other differentiating characteristics, all in the context of the requirements of our Board at that point in time), professional skills, geographic representation and other qualities it considers important in light of our business plan. The Board evaluates the makeup of its membership in the context of the Board as a whole, with the objective of recommending a group that can effectively work together using its diversity of experience to see that Magnum Hunter is well managed and represents the interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Under the terms of a previously existing employment agreement, which expired in May 2012, Gary C. Evans, our Chairman of the Board, was entitled to nominate one member to our Board. Pursuant to that agreement, he nominated Jeff Swanson in August 2009.

Our common stockholders may submit the names and other information regarding individuals they wish to be considered for nomination as directors by writing to our Corporate Secretary at 777 Post Oak Boulevard, Suite 650, Houston, Texas 77056.

Board's Role in Risk Oversight

Our Board of Directors is responsible for the Company's risk-oversight function and is actively involved in the oversight of risks that could affect our Company. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks we face, while the Board, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management.

The Audit Committee of our Board is charged by its charter with, among other duties, reviewing the significant accounting principles, policies and practices followed by the Company; reviewing financial, investment and risk management policies followed by Magnum Hunter in operating its business activities; reviewing the Company's annual audited financial statements; reviewing the effectiveness of our independent audits, including approval of the scope of and fees charged in connection with our annual audit and quarterly reviews; appointing and overseeing the work of the Company's independent auditor; and reviewing and discussing audit-related and independence matters with management, the Board and the Company's independent auditors. The Audit Committee must regularly update the Board and make appropriate recommendations. Additionally, at Audit Committee meetings, our management may present a particular area of risk, either independently as a result of its assessment of materiality or at the request of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee works with management to address the strengths and weaknesses of the policies in each area presented or separately assessed. In addition to the formal compliance program, the Board and the Audit Committee encourage management to promote a corporate culture that understands risk management and incorporates it into the overall corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations.

Board of Directors' Leadership Structure

Gary C. Evans currently serves as Chairman of the Board in addition to his role as our Chief Executive Officer. The Board believes that our Chief Executive Officer is currently best situated to serve as Chairman because he is the director most familiar with our business and most capable of effectively identifying strategic priorities and leading the discussion and execution of strategy. Our independent directors bring experience, oversight and expertise from outside the Company, while the Chief Executive Officer brings company-specific experience and expertise. The Board believes that the combined role of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer facilitates information flow between management and the Board.

The Board appointed Mr. McClaugherty as the Company's lead independent director for a one-year term commencing on April 13, 2013. The Board intends to continue to maintain a lead independent director on the Board. The additional responsibilities of the lead independent director include: (i) chairing executive sessions where independent directors meet either before or after regularly scheduled Board meetings and, as appropriate, providing prompt feedback to the Chairman of the Board and the CEO, (ii) calling, setting the agenda for and chairing periodic executive sessions and meetings of the independent directors and reporting accordingly to the full Board, (iii) chairing Board meetings in the absence of the Chairman of the Board, (iv) providing feedback to the Chairman of the Board and CEO on corporate and Board policies and strategies and acting as a liaison between the Board and the CEO, (v) facilitating one-on-one communication between directors and committee chairs and the Chairman of the Board and CEO and other senior managers to keep abreast of their perspectives, (vi) in concert with the Chairman of the Board and CEO, advising on the agenda and schedule for Board meetings and strategic planning sessions based on input from directors, (vii) providing advance feedback on background materials and resources necessary or desirable to assist the directors in carrying out their responsibilities, and reviewing Board materials and background papers in advance of Board meetings, (viii) interviewing potential candidates for election to the Board, (ix) holding one-on-one discussions with individual directors when deemed appropriate by the Chairman of the Board or the lead independent director, (x) overseeing the evaluation of individual members of the Board and of the CEO and (xi) carrying out such other duties as are requested by the Board from time to time.

The Company maintains a third-party managed whistleblower hotline whereby employees can submit complaints or concerns regarding financial statement disclosures, accounting matters, internal accounting controls, auditing matters, compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations and compliance with the Company's policies and procedures, including matters arising under our Code of Conduct and Ethics.

We reserve the right to screen materials sent to our directors for potential security risks and/or harassment purposes. Stockholders also have an opportunity to communicate with our Board at our annual meetings of stockholders.

Attendance at Meetings of Stockholders

All directors are expected to attend annual meetings of our stockholders, subject to occasional excused absences due to illness or unavoidable conflicts. All of our directors as of the 2013 annual meeting of our stockholders attended that meeting.

Our Board Committees

The Board of Directors oversees the management of the business and affairs of our Company. The Board has three standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Governance Committee, each of which is described below. Each committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board.

In 2013, the Board met 15 times and acted by unanimous written consent five times; the Audit Committee met 34 times; the Compensation Committee met 21 times; and the Governance Committee met 27 times. Each director attended more than 96% of the meetings of the Board and the committees on which he served. The following table sets forth the committees of the Board and their members as of the date of the filing of this amendment to our annual report on Form 10-K/A:

The committee charters, Code of Conduct and Ethics and Corporate Governance Guidelines are located under the "Corporate Governance" link under the "Investors" tab. Unless specifically stated herein, documents and information on our website are not incorporated by reference in this annual report.

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities by, among other things, reviewing the financial information that will be provided to the stockholders and others; reviewing the internal controls over financial reporting that management has established; appointing, retaining and overseeing the performance of our independent registered public accounting firm; and overseeing our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of our financial statements. Our Audit Committee also consults with our management and our independent registered public accounting firm prior to the presentation of financial statements to stockholders and, as appropriate, initiates inquiries into aspects of our financial affairs. Our Audit Committee, along with our Governance Committee, are responsible for establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, and for the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters. In addition, our Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, retention, compensation and oversight of the work of our independent auditors, including approving services and fee arrangements.

The current members of our Audit Committee are Messrs. Bailes, Duckworth, Hurley and McClaugherty. Mr. Bailes served as Chairman of the Audit Committee during 2013 and through February 25, 2014, the date on which the Company filed its 2013 annual report on Form 10-K. Mr. Duckworth was appointed by the Board as Chairman of the Audit Committee on February 27, 2014.

Our Audit Committee must include at least one member who has been determined by our Board to meet the qualifications of an audit committee financial expert in accordance with SEC rules. Our Board has determined that all of the members of our Audit Committee meet the independence and other requirements for audit committee membership of the NYSE listing standards and SEC requirements. The Board has also determined that Messrs. Duckworth and Bailes are audit committee financial experts, as

that term is defined in the SEC rules. Mr. Duckworth is a certified public accountant with more than 38 years of service in public accounting. Mr. Bailes is a certified public accountant and has been engaged in a public accounting and tax practice for approximately the last 39 years. In addition, Messrs. Hurley and McClaugherty have a fundamental understanding of financial statements.

Since its formation in April 2006, the Audit Committee has approved all audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and special engagement fees of the Company's independent public accounting firm. The Audit Committee approved 100% of such fees for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Based on the Audit Committee's review and discussions noted above, the Audit Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that Magnum Hunter's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 be included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Compensation Committee

Our Board's Compensation Committee discharges the Board's responsibilities relating to the compensation of our directors and officers. The Compensation Committee has the overall responsibility for, among other things, establishing the compensation levels and direct and indirect benefits of our officers and directors; making recommendations to the Board with respect to the establishment and terms of incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans and administering such plans; reviewing and evaluating the Company's compensation program and such program's coordination and execution; establishing and reviewing policies with respect to management and director perquisites; engaging any outside consultant to assist in determining appropriate compensation levels for our officers and directors; and reviewing and discussing with management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K or proxy statement. In addition, our Compensation Committee administers our Stock Incentive Plan, including reviewing and granting restricted stock and other share-based awards, with respect to our directors, officers and employees.

The current members of our Compensation Committee are Messrs. Hurley, McClaugherty, and Swanson. Mr. McClaugherty serves as Chairman of the Compensation Committee. The members of our Compensation Committee are independent, as independence for directors is defined by NYSE rules.

Governance Committee

Our Governance Committee's responsibilities include identifying individuals qualified to become Board members consistent with criteria approved by the Board and recommending candidates for election to our Board; reviewing and recommending changes, when necessary, to the Board regarding the Corporate Governance Guidelines of the Company; overseeing the director nomination process and the evaluation of the Board and management; reviewing the independence of each Board member and making recommendations to the Board regarding director independence; reviewing and resolving issues pertaining to related-party transactions and conflicts of interests; and evaluating and, if necessary, recommending changes to the Board regarding Board processes and policies.

The Governance Committee has established procedures for the nomination process and leads the searches for, selects and recommends candidates for election to our Board, subject to legal rights, if any, of third parties to nominate or appoint directors. Consideration of new director candidates typically involves a series of committee discussions, review of information concerning candidates and interviews with selected candidates. Candidates for nomination to our Board typically have been suggested by other members of our Board or by our executive officers. From time to time, our Governance Committee may engage the services of a third-party search firm to identify director candidates. Our Governance Committee recommends candidates for election to our Board. Candidates proposed by common stockholders will be evaluated by our Governance Committee using the same criteria as for all other candidates.

The Board will consider recommendations of director nominees from common stockholders that are submitted in accordance with the procedures for nominations set forth under the section entitled "Other Matters-Stockholder Proposals for 2014 Annual Meeting" in the Company's proxy statement for its 2014 annual meeting of stockholders when the proxy statement is filed. In addition, such recommendations should be accompanied by the candidate's name, biographical data, qualifications and a written statement from the individual evidencing his or her consent to be named as a candidate and, if nominated and elected, to serve as a director. Other than as stated herein, we do not have a formal policy with respect to consideration of director candidates recommended by stockholders, as the Board believes that each candidate, regardless of the source of the recommendation, should be evaluated in light of all relevant facts and circumstances.

Nominees for director are selected on the basis of, among other things, independence, experience, knowledge, skills, expertise, integrity, ability to make independent analytical inquiries, understanding of the Company's business environment, ability to devote adequate time and effort to Board responsibilities and commitments to other public company boards. Other criteria for director candidates considered by the Governance Committee and by the full Board include age, diversity ("diversity" being broadly construed to mean a variety of opinions, perspectives, experiences and backgrounds, such as gender, race and ethnicity differences, as well as other differentiating characteristics, all in the context of the requirements of our Board at that point in time), whether

the candidate has any conflicts of interest, whether the candidate has the requisite independence and skills for Board and committee service under applicable SEC and NYSE rules, how the candidate's skills and experience enhance the overall competency of the Board, and whether the candidate has any special background relevant to Magnum Hunter's business.

The current members of our Governance Committee are Messrs. Carrillo, Hurley and Swanson. Mr. Carrillo serves as Chairman of the Governance Committee. The members of our Governance Committee are independent, as independence for directors is defined by NYSE rules.

Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

Only one of our directors, Gary C. Evans, also serves as an executive officer of Magnum Hunter. Mr. Evans does not serve on any of our standing committees, and no other member of our Board is employed by Magnum Hunter or its subsidiaries.

Mr. Evans also serves as Chairman of the board of directors of GreenHunter and is a major stockholder of GreenHunter. In addition, Mr. Evans currently serves as the interim Chief Executive Officer of GreenHunter. Other than as described above, none of our executive officers serves on the board of directors of another entity whose executive officers serve on our Board. No officer or employee of Magnum Hunter, other than Mr. Evans, participated in the deliberations of our Board or our Compensation Committee concerning executive officer or director compensation.

Director and Officer Indemnification

Our bylaws permit the Company to indemnify the Company's directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law. We also maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance. Additionally, we have, from time to time, entered into separate indemnification agreements with persons who were in service as directors and executive officers of the Company at such time (some of whom are no longer serving in such capacities) that provide broader indemnification than that required under the Delaware General Corporation Law. These agreements, among other things, require us to indemnify our directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law for certain expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, penalties, fines and settlement amounts actually and reasonably incurred by a director or executive officer in any action or proceeding arising out of his service as one of our directors or executive officers, or any of our subsidiaries, or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at our request, including liability arising out of negligence or active or passive wrongdoing by the officer or director. We believe that these agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors and executives.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws and the indemnification agreements may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors and officers for breach of their fiduciary duty. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and other stockholders. Further, a stockholder's investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers as required by these indemnification provisions.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers and beneficial holders of more than 10% of our common stock to file reports with the SEC regarding their ownership and changes in ownership of our stock. Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished to us during the year ended December 31, 2013 and Forms 5 and amendments thereto furnished to us with respect to the year ended December 31, 2013, and any written representations provided to us, we believe that all of our directors, executive officers and beneficial holders of more than 10% of the outstanding shares of our common stock complied with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Item 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Director Compensation

Our Compensation Committee reviews, not less frequently than bi-annually, and recommends to our Board for approval, fees and other compensation and benefits for our non-employee directors. Also, our Compensation Committee frequently consults with Longnecker and Associates, or Longnecker, an independent compensation consultant, on the competitiveness of our executive compensation. Longnecker's most recent formal peer group review for the Compensation Committee on overall director compensation was performed in December 2013. Longnecker assists our Compensation Committee in evaluating the appropriateness of our non-employee directors' compensation program, including the mix of meeting fees and annual chairperson retainers, to ensure that the program compensates our non-employee directors for the level of responsibility the Board has assumed in today's corporate governance environment and to remain competitive relative to companies in our peer group.

The Company's non-employee directors' compensation program remained fundamentally unchanged in 2013. Fees for attending meetings of the Board and its committees were set at $1,500 per Board meeting and $1,000 per committee meeting (including standing and special committees). In 2013, all of our non-employee directors received a $45,000 annual retainer in addition to the fees described above. The chair of each committee also received an additional $10,000 annual retainer, and the lead independent

director received an additional $15,000 annual retainer. Meeting fees and retainers are paid on a quarterly basis. Non-employee directors were also granted options as reflected in the table below.

Beginning in January, 2014, the $45,000 annual retainer described above was increased to $50,000, the $15,000 additional annual retainer for the lead independent director was increased to $30,000, and the annual retainer for the chair of the audit committee was increased from $10,000 to $15,000. Options have not been granted to non-employee directors in 2014. Instead, in January 2014, each non-employee director received restricted stock valued at approximately $150,000 on the date of grant. Subject to continued service as a director, the full restricted stock award vests one year from the date of grant or, if earlier, upon the death of the recipient or a change in control of the Company.

Each non-employee director may elect to receive his compensation, including meeting fees, committee chairperson fees and annual retainer, in cash or in shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof. Each director's election will remain in effect until a new election is made, and new elections may be made on an annual basis. As of the date of the filing of this amendment to our annual report on Form 10-K/A, all of our non-employee directors have elected to receive compensation in shares of common stock, with the exception of Mr. Duckworth, who has elected to receive 60% of his compensation in stock and 40% in cash.

The number of shares paid in lieu of cash compensation is based on the volume weighted average price of our common stock for the calendar quarter in which the meetings were held or the chairperson fee or annual retainer was accrued. Non-employee directors are also eligible to receive annual grants of shares of Magnum Hunter common stock, which may be restricted stock, under our Stock Incentive Plan.

The following table presents compensation earned by each non-employee member of our Board for 2013. Compensation information for Mr. Evans, a current director, and Mr. Ormand, a former director, is contained in the Summary Compensation Table below. Messrs. Evans and Ormand did not receive any compensation in their capacities as directors of the Company.

Executive Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This compensation discussion and analysis provides information regarding our executive compensation program in 2013 for the following executive officers and former executive officer of the Company, collectively referred to as our Named Executive Officers, or NEOs:


•	Gary C. Evans, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer


•	Joseph C. Daches, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer


•	Ronald D. Ormand, former Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary


•	James W. Denny III, Executive Vice President and President, Appalachian Division


•	H.C. "Kip" Ferguson, Executive Vice President - Exploration


•	R. Glenn Dawson, Executive Vice President and President, Williston Basin Division

2011 Stockholder Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation

At our 2011 annual meeting of stockholders, we held our first advisory vote on executive compensation. Over 85% of the votes cast were in favor of the compensation of the NEOs. The Compensation Committee considered this favorable outcome and believed it conveyed our stockholders' support of the Compensation Committee's decisions and the existing executive compensation programs. The Compensation Committee continues to look for ways to attract and retain top executive talent whose interests are aligned with those of the Company's stockholders. At the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders, we will again hold an advisory vote to approve executive compensation, as a vote every three years was supported by the common stockholders in 2011 in accordance with the Company's recommendation. The Compensation Committee will continue to consider the results from the 2011 vote and future advisory votes, including the advisory vote at the 2014 annual meeting, on executive compensation.

Our Compensation Philosophy

The objective of the Company's executive compensation program is to enable us to recruit and retain highly qualified managerial talent by providing competitive levels of compensation in an increasingly competitive market for executive talent. We also seek to motivate our executives to achieve individual and business performance objectives by varying their compensation in accordance with the success of our business.

We believe compensation programs can drive the behavior of employees covered by the programs, and accordingly we seek to design our executive compensation program to align compensation with current and desired corporate performance and stockholder interests. Actual compensation in a given year will vary based on the Company's performance and on subjective appraisals of individual performance. In other words, actual compensation generally will reflect the Company's financial and operational performance.

We maintain competitive benefit programs for our employees, including our NEOs, with the objective of retaining their services. Our benefits reflect competitive practices at the time the benefit programs were implemented and, in some cases, reflect our desire to maintain similar benefits treatment for all employees in similar positions. To the extent possible, we structure these programs to deliver benefits in a manner that is tax efficient to both the recipient and the Company.

We seek to provide compensation that is competitive with the companies we believe are our peers and other likely competitors for executive talent. Competitive compensation is normally sufficient to attract executive talent to the Company. Competitive compensation also makes it less likely that executive talent will be lured away by higher compensation to perform a similar role with a similarly-sized competitor. We also believe that a significant portion of compensation for executives should be "at risk," meaning that the executives will receive a significant portion of their total compensation only to the extent the Company and the executive accomplish goals established by our Compensation Committee.

We frequently consult with Longnecker on the competitiveness of our executive compensation. In February 2013, Longnecker performed a formal peer group review on the compensation of our senior executives. That review looked at the following companies in our peer group:



Approach Resources Inc.	Gulport Energy Corporation	Resolute Energy Corporation
Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc.	Halcon Resources Corporation	Rex Energy Corporation
Comstock Resources, Inc.	Kodiak Oil & Gas Corp.	Rosetta Resources Inc.
EXCO Resources, Inc.	Northern Oil & Gas, Inc.	Swift Energy Company
Forest Oil Corporation	Oasis Petroleum Inc.
Goodrich Petroleum Corporation	PDC Energy, Inc.

Base Salary

Base salary is the foundation of total compensation. Base salary recognizes the job being performed and the value of that job in the competitive market. Base salary must be sufficient to attract and retain the talent necessary for our continued success and provides an element of compensation that is not at risk in order to avoid fluctuations in compensation that could distract the executives from the performance of their responsibilities.

Adjustments to base salary primarily reflect either changes or responses to changes in market data or increased experience and individual contribution of the employee. Working with Longnecker, we noted in 2010 that our base salaries were, in many cases, significantly below market. We have instituted salary increases each year to ensure that our overall compensation remains competitive, but continue to place more emphasis on incentive compensation because of its link to the creation of stockholder value.

Short-Term Incentives

For 2013, the Compensation Committee suspended the metrics-based component of our short-term incentive program that was utilized in prior years. In light of the change in the Company's independent auditor in 2013 and related late filing of the Company's 2012 Form 10-K, the Compensation Committee determined that 2013 bonuses for senior management should be considered on a case-by-case basis. Importantly, the award of a bonus should not be seen as "locked in" because of the achievement of a performance metric if the bonus is not deserved given overall performance. Our Compensation Committee awarded short-term incentives in the form of cash bonuses to certain employees, including our NEOs, in March, 2014, based on individual and Company performance in 2013. The Compensation Committee considered each NEO's contributions to the Company's financial and operational performance objectives. For 2014, the Compensation Committee intends to reinstitute a metrics-based component to the short-term incentive program following review of the program with the Company's compensation consultant.

Long-Term Incentives

Our Stock Incentive Plan, in which each of our executive officers, including each of our NEOs, and certain other employees participate, is designed to reward participants for sustained improvements in the Company's financial performance and increases in the value of our common stock over an extended period. Long-term incentives are a key component of the Company's overall compensation structure.

The Compensation Committee authorizes grants throughout the year depending upon the Company's activities during that time period. Grants can be made from a variety of award types authorized under our Stock Incentive Plan.

Currently, the vesting criteria for most awards is service based to ensure that our equity compensation awards have the effect of retaining our employees. In light of the Company's performance, the competitive environment and the skill of our employees, the Compensation Committee anticipates that future awards will primarily be in shares of restricted stock.

Change in Control Payments

In 2011, the Company approved a change in control program that provides the Company's executives with certain specified severance payments following a change in control of the Company, provided that the severance occurs either without cause or by the executive for good reason within 24 months following the change in control. The definition of what constitutes a change in control tracks the language of the Company's Stock Incentive Plan.

Immediately prior to a change in control, all outstanding equity awards will vest and any performance targets will be deemed to have been met at 100%. This occurs without regard to whether a termination of employment occurs.

For the 24 months following a change in control, an executive who is terminated without cause or who terminates employment for good reason will be entitled to the severance payments. Generally, senior executives, including the NEOs, would receive a severance payment equal to two times base salary plus two times targeted bonus and 24 months of continued medical coverage. The "targeted bonus" is defined as the highest of (1) the maximum bonus opportunity established by the Compensation Committee for the executive or, if the Compensation Committee has not established the executive's bonus opportunity for the year in which the executive's termination occurs, 100% of the executive's base salary, (2) the maximum bonus opportunity established by the Compensation Committee for the executive for the immediately preceding year or (3) the maximum bonus opportunity established by the Compensation Committee for the executive immediately prior to the change in control.

As a condition to receiving severance payments, an executive must sign a release and waiver of claims that includes non-disparagement and confidentiality provisions. In most circumstances, the executive will, by statute, have 21 days to consider the release and seven days following execution of the release where the executive can revoke it. The executive will receive health coverage during this consideration period even if the executive does not ultimately execute the release.

Severance benefits paid to an executive will be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of any excise tax associated with parachute payments.

In developing the change in control program, the Compensation Committee engaged the services of Longnecker as compensation consultants. As part of their analysis, Longnecker used the following peer group of companies for benchmarking purposes:



Oasis Petroleum Inc.	Comstock Resources, Inc.	Penn Virginia Corporation
Swift Energy Company	Kodiak Oil & Gas Corp.	GeoResources, Inc.
Stone Energy Corporation	Northern Oil & Gas, Inc.	Rex Energy Corporation
Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc.	Resolute Energy Corporation	Endeavour International Corporation
Gulfport Energy Corporation	Goodrich Petroleum Corporation	GMX Resources, Inc.

Risk Assessment

As part of its oversight of the Company's executive and non-executive compensation programs, the Compensation Committee considers the impact of the Company's compensation programs, and the incentives created by the compensation awards that it administers, on the Company's risk profile. In addition, the Company reviews all of its compensation policies and procedures, including the incentives that they create and factors that may reduce the likelihood of excessive risk taking, to determine whether they present a significant risk to the Company. Based on this review, the Company has concluded that its compensation policies and procedures are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. As a result of this analysis, the Compensation Committee identified the following risk mitigating factors:


•	use of long-term incentive compensation;


•	vesting periods for equity compensation awards that encourage executives and other key employees to focus on sustained stock price appreciation and to provide a long-term retention incentive for our key employees;


•	the Compensation Committee's discretionary authority to adjust annual incentive awards, which helps mitigate any business risks associated with such awards;


•	the Company's internal controls over financial reporting and other financial, operational and compliance policies and practices currently in place;


•	base salaries consistent with executives' responsibilities so that they are not motivated to take excessive risks to achieve a reasonable level of financial security; and


•	design of long-term compensation to reward executives and other key employees for driving sustainable and/or profitable growth for stockholders.

As a result of the above assessment, the Compensation Committee determined that the Company's policies and procedures largely achieve a proper balance between competitive compensation and prudent business risk.

Executive Compensation Tables

The following tables include compensation information for our NEOs for the last three years. For a discussion of 2013 NEO compensation, please read the Executive Compensation Discussion and Analysis above.

The 2013 Summary Compensation Table below sets forth compensation information for our NEOs relating to 2013, 2012 and 2011. Pursuant to SEC rules, the 2013 Summary Compensation Table is required to include for a particular fiscal year only those restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights and options to purchase common stock granted during that year, rather than awards granted after year-end, even if awarded for services in that year. SEC rules require disclosure of variable cash compensation to be included in the year earned, even if payment is made after year-end. Generally, we pay any cash variable compensation for a particular year after the Compensation Committee has had an opportunity to review the Company's and each individual's performance for that year. As a result, cash variable compensation reported in the "Bonus" column was paid in the year following the year in which it is reported in the table.

⁽¹⁾

The Company's "safe harbor" matching contributions to its 401(k) plan for 2013 have not yet been made. When made, the Company expects that the contribution will be made in shares of the Company's common stock. Once dollar amounts for the Company's contributions are determined, the Company uses the closing price of the common stock the day prior to making its contribution to convert the dollar amounts to shares on a unitized basis. The amount of this contribution will change if the Company chooses to make a discretionary matching contribution for 2013.


⁽²⁾	Mr. Ormand was succeeded in his role as Chief Financial Officer of the Company by Joseph C. Daches, effective July 22, 2013, and resigned from his position as Executive Vice President - Finance and Head of Capital Markets and as an employee of the Company, effective October 31, 2013.


⁽³⁾	Certain amounts paid for the benefit of Mr. Dawson were paid in Canadian dollars throughout the course of the year while other amounts were paid in U.S. dollars. For simplification purposes, all amounts paid in Canadian dollars have been aggregated and converted to U.S. dollars using the nominal noon exchange rate for December 31, 2013, as published by the Bank of Canada.


⁽⁴⁾	We provide Mr. Evans with memberships to certain private country and city clubs to facilitate business meetings and initiate and strengthen business relationships. Mr. Evans uses one country club for business and non-business purposes. The cost of membership in that club is included in this total.

⁽⁵⁾

Because of extensive business travel requirements, we make corporate apartments available to Messrs. Evans and Denny and other employees. In 2013, Mr. Evans did not maintain a residence near the Company's Houston offices and the Company incurred an incremental cost of $86,914 associated with Mr. Evans' use of a Houston apartment along with other executives who also reside at the same premises. In 2013, Mr. Denny used corporate apartments near the Company's operations in Marietta, Ohio, and Lexington, Kentucky, with incremental costs to the Company of $38,731 and $24,867 respectively. We also provide vehicles at various locations. The amount shown for Mr. Evans includes the incremental cost of Mr. Evans' use of Company vehicles. We did not attribute any incremental cost to Mr. Denny's use of Company vehicles because the vehicles driven by Mr. Denny in 2013 had fully depreciated prior to 2012 and because of his limited personal use of those vehicles.

Item 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Under SEC rules, public companies, such as Magnum Hunter, must disclose certain "Related Person Transactions." These are transactions in which the Company is a participant; the amount involved exceeds $120,000; and a director, executive officer or holder of more than 5% of our common stock has a direct or indirect material interest.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

Our Governance Committee charter requires, among other things, that (i) our Governance Committee will be comprised exclusively of members of our Board who satisfy the independence requirements of the NYSE and (ii) our Governance Committee is responsible for approving all related party transactions, as defined by the rules of the SEC, to which we are a party. In February 2014 we

adopted a related party transactions policy to assist us in identifying related parties under applicable rules and potential related party transactions. The Governance Committee's review procedures under this policy include evaluating the following:


•	Whether the terms of the related party transaction are fair to the Company and on the same basis as would apply if the transaction did not involve a related party;


•	Whether there are business reasons for the Company to enter into the related party transaction;


•	Whether the related party transaction would impair the independence of an outside director; and

•

Whether the related party transaction would present an improper conflict of interest for any director or executive officer of the Company, taking into account the size of the transaction, the overall financial position of the director, executive officer, or related party, and the nature of the director's, executive officer's, or related party's interest in the transaction and the ongoing nature of any proposed relationship, and any other factors the Governance Committee deems relevant.

Additionally, in cases of transactions in which a director or executive officer may have an interest, the Governance Committee also evaluates the effect of the transaction on such individual's willingness or ability to properly perform his or her duties at Magnum Hunter.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Airplane Rental

During 2013, we rented an airplane for business use at various times from Pilatus Hunter, LLC, an entity wholly-owned by Mr. Evans. Airplane rental expenses totaled $166,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

GreenHunter Transactions

As discussed in the "Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation" section, Gary C. Evans, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, is the Chairman and a major stockholder of GreenHunter; and Ronald D. Ormand, our former Chief Financial Officer and a former member of our Board, was a director of GreenHunter from June 2009 to December 2012.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, Eagle Ford Hunter, Inc. and Triad Hunter, LLC, wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, rented storage tanks for disposal water, frac tanks and equipment from GreenHunter. Rental costs totaled $282,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company believes that such services were provided to it at competitive market rates and were comparable to or more attractive than rates that could have been obtained from unaffiliated third-party suppliers of such services. Additionally, these companies regularly obtained, and we continue to obtain, services from GreenHunter Resources, Inc. for water disposal which are at competitive market rates. These disposal charges recorded in lease operating expenses totaled $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Director Independence

In accordance with the NYSE listing standards and applicable SEC rules and guidelines, our Board and our Governance Committee assess the independence of its members from time to time. Applying the applicable NYSE listing standards and SEC rules for independence, our Board, upon the recommendation of our Governance Committee, determined that Messrs. J. Raleigh Bailes, Victor G. Carrillo, Rocky L. Duckworth, Stephen C. Hurley, Joe L. McClaugherty, and Jeff Swanson are independent directors.

Under the NYSE listing standards, a majority of our directors must be independent, and our Audit, Compensation and Governance Committees are each required to be composed solely of independent directors. The standards for Audit Committee membership include additional requirements under rules of the SEC. The Board has determined that all of the members of our Audit, Compensation and Governance Committees meet the applicable independence requirements. The listing standards relating to general independence consist of both a requirement for a Board determination that the director has no material relationship with the Company and a listing of several specific relationships that preclude independence.

Also included are fees for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor, including consultation regarding accounting and reporting matters and the issuance of comfort letters in connection with offerings by Magnum Hunter of common stock and preferred stock.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy

The Audit Committee is responsible for appointing, setting the compensation for and overseeing the work of Magnum Hunter's independent auditor. In recognition of this responsibility, the Audit Committee is required to approve all audit and non-audit services performed by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm in order to assure that the provision of these services does not impair the independent auditor's independence; except that the Chairman of the Audit Committee has discretion to unilaterally engage accounting professionals previously approved by the Audit Committee to perform additional services, provided that the cost of such services does not exceed certain predetermined amounts. For 2013, the cost of pre-approved services could not exceed $15,000. The Chairman of the Audit Committee must report any such engagement at the next Audit Committee meeting.

The Audit Committee specifically approved all audit and non-audit services performed by our independent accountants in 2013.
