1 OIL AND GAS Mid & Small Cap E&P Market Weight 3Q preview: Prisoner s dilemma for SMID-Cap E&P? Delicate balancing act between positive OPEC commentary and a litany of risks We have noticed that the tug of war between bulls and bears around our coverage universe now skews modestly bullish as evidenced by the recent rally in commodity beta plays alongside the curve and recent marketing discussions. Call us cynical but there are too many wildcards to change our defensive stance, i.e., (1) OPEC cut details; (2) election results; (3) dollar impacts around potential interest rate changes; (4) sluggish global growth; and (5) premium valuations to take us off our Market weight for the group. This go around it may be US unconventional that is the bad actor While OPEC s track record around cohesion has not been great, these are clearly unprecedented times for many of the countries involved. The team s view is that there is too much at stake to not cut a deal in November and at least initially, we think there will be sufficient compliance to effectively clean up the inventory overhang within the next months. This go around, it is US E&P that appears to have the upper hand (1) core drilling with lower break-evens; (2) efficiency gains especially cycle times; (3) cost controls; (4) improved balance sheet/liquidity; and (5) an improved curve for hedging and therefore provide the greatest risk around supply. Although our discussions with managements suggest continued caution around 17, it is clear our universe of stocks are much better positioned to accelerate growth, which outside of quality basin exposure, could be viewed negatively in our opinion.

2 Investment conclusion As a team we have marked to market 3Q commodity prices and made several adjustments to our outlook. We have increased our 16/ 17 WTI oil price outlook by 4% and 16/ 17 natgas price outlook by a more modest 2%. The net effect of these changes is not dramatic -- 3Q M2M translates to an average -1% drop vs. our prior estimate and average +1%/+1% changes for our FY16/FY17 estimates with a more bearish outlook on NGLs dampening some of the improvement in oil and natgas realizations. Relative to the Street, we are on average -5% below the Street on 3Q EBITDAx due in large part, we suspect, to weaker realizations in Appalachia natgas and a seasonal drop in ethane and propane pricing.

4 For 2017, we are on average 1% above Street consensus, but here the devil is in the details. As we pointed out earlier, companies with higher oil leverage benefitted most while those with higher NGLs in the production stream were impacted by our concerns around ethane and propane pricing. As a matter of course, we typically reset our target prices alongside quarterly reporting. So while our NAVs/mid-cycle EBITDAx estimates were modestly impacted by these 16 changes, we have chosen to keep our TPs intact pending the conclusion of reporting where we will also introduce 2018 estimates alongside expected revisions to 2017 capex outlooks. See our team comp table in Exhibit 20 below for more details. Too many wildcards to change our defensive stance Despite the recent lift in the commodity curves (Exhibits 5 and 6), we remain defensive in our outlook and stock preferences. We believe there remains too much uncertainty around (1) OPEC cut details; (2) election results; (3) potential interest rate changes; (4) sluggish global growth offsetting some positives in the US; and (5) premium valuations to take us off our Market weight for the group. Our preferences remain unchanged. We like the companies that have assets that can grow in a $45 - $55/bbl outlook that have margin expansion opportunities in strong price environments, but also cash flow defensiveness if we re-test the lows of that range. Moreover, our preferences include those companies that have balance sheet and liquidity to help accelerate drilling activity if the risk profile returns back to the upside. We would use weakness to buy our OP-rated stocks are AR, CXO, EQT, RICE, and XEC and recent strength to sell our UPrated stocks EPE, SWN, and WLL that have rallied on commodity beta.

5 ($/bbl) Elizabeth May - emay@wolferesearch.com - Do not forward Commodity price deck update We marked our commodity deck to market for the recently completed 3Q The basic shape of the oil price recovery remains the same in our forecast, but the tentative OPEC agreement, which we believe is more likely than not to be ratified and at least initially, we think there will be sufficient compliance to effectively clean up the inventory overhang with months. As a result we are more bullish than the strip starting in 1H17, and increasingly so over time. Assuming OPEC market management, we expect a $45-60/bbl range from now until mid-year 2017, then a shift upwards to a $55-70/bbl range in 2H17, and $ and beyond. Our forecasts for Brent, WTI and Henry Hub natgas, versus the strip, are captured in the summary charts below. Exhibit 7: Wolfe Research Brent forecast by quarter vs. strip Exhibit 8: Wolfe Research WTI forecast by quarter vs. strip We have made only minor changes to our outlook going forward, though of course we have marked 4Q16 upwards to reflect the current price. The expectation here is that an OPEC freeze will accelerate the "clean up" of inventory throughout 2017, and drive a steadily rising price prices will need to incentivize a rapid acceleration of US output The market will need US unconventional to be accelerating as quickly as possible from 2H17 forward, while OPEC pulls global barrels back, so Brent-WTI should re-widen somewhat - we are above strip less for WTI> 2015/16 underinvestment manifests starting in 2018/ The strip is less liquid beyond six months and tends to "smear" the current trend WTI strip goes flat at $54/bbl beyond Q15 2Q15 3Q15 4Q15 1Q16 2Q16 3Q16 4Q16 1Q17 2Q17 3Q17 4Q Current Strip Wolfe Research estimate 30 1Q15 2Q15 3Q15 4Q15 1Q16 2Q16 3Q16 4Q16 1Q17 2Q17 3Q17 4Q Current Strip Wolfe Research estimate Source: Bloomberg Finance LP, Wolfe Research estimates Source: Bloomberg Finance LP, Wolfe Research estimates Exhibit 9: Wolfe Research NYMEX nat gas by quarter vs. strip Anything above $2.75 increasingly encourages coal back into the mix, so we expect some gas-to-coal switching in 2017 as we stay near $3/mcf, with a drop below that price in the warmer quarters. Longer-term increasing LNG will keep us above $3/mcf. 1Q15 2Q15 3Q15 4Q15 1Q16 2Q16 3Q16 4Q16 1Q17 2Q17 3Q17 4Q Current Strip Wolfe Research estimate For natgas, we are modestly bearish relative to the strip, at least for the first half of 2017, as we expect some gas-to-coal switching driven by cheap coal and $3/mcf+ gas. Anything above about $2.75 encourages coal back into the mix, and gas near $3 will prompt utilities to burn more coal next year. We had record heat in the SE/SW in 2Q/3Q16, and therefore record power gen. Unless that repeats we expect natgas in the $2.75-$3.00 range for the summer quarters next year. Beyond that we expect increasing LNG demand, coupled with some coal plant retirement, to nudge nat gas prices up above $3/mcf. We are above the strip from 2018 on. Our detailed commodity deck, with both historical prices and our forecast by quarter is below. We will add quarterly expectations for 2018 when we update estimates for 4Q, and add 2018 quarterly forecasts for the companies. Source: Wolfe Research WolfeResearch.com Page 5 of 15

9 Production & CAPEX Calls will be dominated by questions on 17 growth/capex/liquidity Based on our discussions with the companies and observing the numerous M&A transactions in the space recently (RICE &VEI (NC), CXO & REI (NC), RRC & MRD (NC).); investors/traders continue to have growth on the brain, despite management teams remaining conservative and guarded around their 2017 outlooks. The market may want these companies to discuss growth, but companies are holding firm to more modest outlooks while stressing flexibility to add rigs if pricing firms longer term. Below, we walk through what we think will be the key 3Q conference call focal points, starting with 17 production growth. We believe several of our higher quality names and recent acquirers will reiterate or announce differentiated production growth including RICE (75% if the VEI acquisition closes), RRC (34% with MRD acquisition), and AR/GPOR (both with 25% organic growth). We would note all three of our UP rated stocks WLL (-8% decline), SWN (flat), and EPE (-8% decline) along with PP rated SM have the most scope due to commodity leverage to increase capex with a more favorable curve. Exhibit 13: 2017E Production Growth Note, RICE, RRC, and CXO reflect acquisitions of VEI (NC), MRD (deal closed ), and Reliance Energy (private), respectively Source: Company Reports, Wolfe Research estimates Exhibit 14: Hedging Gains (Losses) as a % of 16E E&P CAPEX Exhibit 15: Hedging Gains/Losses as a % of 17 E&P CAPEX Source: Company Reports, Wolfe Research estimates Source: Company Reports, Wolfe Research estimates WolfeResearch.com Page 9 of 15
10 In Exhibit 14 and 15 above we highlight hedging gains and losses as a percentage of 16 and 17 cash capex with the point that the drop in strip pricing over the 2015 calendar year had a significant adverse impact on 17 hedges. With the curve now on the rebound, we believe our coverage universe will be actively hedging 17 and 18 production alongside the improvement in 3Q pricing. We believe the companies most likely to announce increases include COG and SWN on the natgas side and WLL, EPE, and RRC on the liquids/oil side. Balance Sheet and Liquidity In Exhibits below, we highlight net debt and liquidity comparisons across our coverage universe. We would note, that as a group, our coverage universe has dramatically improved debt metrics and liquidity, in part, due to issuing equity (AR, COG, CXO, XEC) and in part to swapping maturities and vanilla debt for preferreds (SWN and WLL). See Exhibit 19 for the outstanding debt distribution and weighted average coupon rate of this debt for each company we cover. SWN is the only company we cover which has debt due in 2017 and only WLL/SWN/EQT/COG with debt due in The majority of the companies we cover used the lower commodity prices throughout the year to focus on balance sheet repair/strength.
