Explanation of Responses:

Remarks:

Coffeyville Acquisition LLC and Coffeyville Acquisition II LLC each own shares of CVR Energy, Inc. (the "Company") common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"). Mr. Lipinski owns common units equal to 0.252% of the total common units of each of Coffeyville Acquisition LLC and Coffeyville Acquisition II LLC. Mr. Lipinski also owns 5,474,284 phantom points pursuant to the Coffeyville Resources, LLC Phantom Unit Appreciation Plan (Plan I) and Coffeyville Resources, LLC Phantom Unit Appreciation Plan (Plan II). Mr. Lipinski was also granted 1,164,913 override units in Coffeyville Acquisition LLC and Coffeyville Acquisition II LLC, which have been transferred to trusts for the benefit of members of Mr. Lipinski's family. Override units and phantom points constitute rights to a portion of the profits generated by Coffeyville Acquisition LLC and Coffeyville Acquisition II LLC. The phantom unit appreciation plans are filed as exhibits 10.3 and 10.32 to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1, File No. 333-137588 (the "Registration Statement"). The limited liability company agreements of Coffeyville Acquisition LLC and Coffeyville Acquisition II LLC are filed as exhibits 10.34 and 10.35, respectively, to the Registration Statement. Mr. Lipinski does not have the power to vote or dispose of the shares of Common Stock that correspond to his ownership of common units in Coffeyville Acquisition LLC and Coffeyville Acquisition II LLC and thus does not have beneficial ownership of such shares. In addition, Mr. Lipinski does not have any pecuniary interest in the shares of Common Stock held by Coffeyville Acquisition LLC and Coffeyville Acquisition II LLC (or override units or phantom points) because he does not control either Coffeyville Acquisition LLC or Coffeyville Acquisition II LLC and does not have or share investment control over either entity's securities.
