On February 14, 2008, CW Stock Holdco LP, an affiliate of Clayton W. Williams, Jr., the Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Clayton Williams Energy, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a trading plan to purchase outstanding shares of Company common stock pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  Rule 10b5-1 permits the implementation of a plan to prearrange purchases or sales of securities if the plan is adopted at a time when the purchaser or seller is not aware of any material non-public information.
 
The plan adopted by CW Stock Holdco LP provides for the purchase of Company common stock during a period of up to one year, without further action or oversight by CW Stock Holdco LP or Mr. Williams.  The plan provides that all purchases will be made according to the timing, price and volume conditions of Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act.
 
The plan is part of Mr. Williams’ long-term strategy to maintain his position as a principal stockholder of, and to increase his personal investment in, the Company.
