SandRidge Mississippian Trust I Announces Planned Increase in Existing Cash Reserve
SANDRIDGE MISSISSIPPIAN TRUST I (NYSE: SDT) (the “Trust”) today announced that its trustee, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust
Company, N.A. (the “Trustee”), has determined to gradually increase the Trustee’s existing cash reserve for the payment of future
expenses and liabilities of the Trust, as permitted by the trust agreement.
Commencing with the distribution to unitholders payable in the first quarter of 2019, the Trustee intends to begin withholding
the greater of $35,000 or 3.5% of the funds otherwise available for distribution each quarter to gradually increase existing cash
reserves by a total of approximately $425,000. The Trustee may increase or decrease the targeted amount at any time, and may
increase or decrease the rate at which it is withholding funds to build the cash reserve at any time, without advance notice to the
unitholders. Cash held in reserve will be invested as required by the trust agreement. Any cash reserved in excess of the amount
necessary to pay or provide for the payment of future known, anticipated or contingent expenses or liabilities eventually will be
distributed to unitholders, together with interest earned on the funds.
