EP Energy E&P Company, L.P. ("EPE"), acting by and through its attorneys,

MacDonald & Miller Mineral Legal Services, PLLC, and pursuant to Utah Admin. Code

indicated above, and subj ect to the proviso, the Division should not be unduly prejudiced

by granting the requested leave to substitute.

As a consequence, and for the reasons outlined above, EPE respectfully request

this Motion for Leave be granted and the attached Replacement Exhibit "U" be

substituted for and reply the original of said Exhibit currently on file in this Cause. A

proposed Order Granting Leave is submitted herewith.

Respectfully submitted this 241h day of October, 2016.
