Investor Presentation October 2017

Forward Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the securities laws. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this presentation that address activities, events or developments that Viper Energy Partners LP ( Viper, the Partnership, VNOM, we or our ) expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. The words believe, expect, may, estimates, will, anticipate, plan, intend, foresee, should, would, could, or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature. However, the absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not forwardlooking. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, these statements discuss future expectations, contain projections of results of operations or of financial condition or state other forwardlooking information and include statements with respect to, among other things, Viper s ability to make distributions on the common units and expectations of plans, strategies and objectives and anticipated financial and operating results of Viper. These statements are based on certain assumptions made by Viper based on management s expectations and perception of historical trends, current conditions, anticipated future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of Viper, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forward-looking statements. These include the factors discussed or referenced in the Risk Factors section of Viper s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K and in Viper s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC ), risks relating to financial performance and results, current economic conditions and resulting capital restraints, prices and demand for oil and natural gas, availability of drilling equipment and personnel, availability of sufficient capital to execute our business plan, impact of compliance with legislation and regulations, successful results from our operators identified drilling locations, our operators ability to efficiently develop and exploit the current reserves on our properties, our ability to acquire additional mineral interests, our pending, completed or future acquisitions of mineral interests and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made and Viper undertakes no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-gaap financial measure that is used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Viper defines generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows it to more effectively evaluate Viper s operating performance and compare the results of its operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of Viper s operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company s financial performance, such as a company s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. Viper defines cash available for distribution generally as an amount equal to its Adjusted EBITDA for the applicable quarter less cash needed for debt service and other contractual obligations and fixed charges and reserves for future operating or capital needs that the board of directors of Viper s general partner may deem appropriate. Viper s computations of Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies or to such measure in its credit facility or any of its other contracts. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), please refer to Viper s filings with the SEC. Oil and Gas Reserves The SEC generally permits oil and gas companies, in filings made with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves, which are reserve estimates that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions, and certain probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC s definitions for such terms. Viper discloses only estimated proved reserves in its filings with the SEC. Viper s estimated proved reserves as of December 31, 2016 contained in this presentation were prepared by Ryder Scott Company, L.P., an independent engineering firm, and comply with definitions promulgated by the SEC. Additional information on Viper s estimated proved reserves is contained in Viper s filings with the SEC. In this communication, Viper may use the terms resources, resource potential or potential resources, which the SEC guidelines prohibit Viper from including in filings with the SEC. Resources, resource potential or potential resources refer to Viper s internal estimates of hydrocarbon quantities that may be potentially discovered through exploratory drilling or recovered with additional drilling or recovery techniques. Such terms do not constitute reserves within the meaning of the Society of Petroleum Engineer s Petroleum Resource Management System or SEC rules and does not include any proved reserves. Actual quantities that may be ultimately recovered by the operators of Viper s properties will differ substantially. Factors affecting ultimate recovery include the scope of the operators ongoing drilling programs, which will be directly affected by the availability of capital, drilling and production costs, availability of drilling services and equipment, drilling results, lease expirations, transportation constraints, regulatory approvals and other factors; and actual drilling results, including geological and mechanical factors affecting recovery rates. Estimates of potential resources may change significantly as development of our properties by our operators provide additional data. In addition, our production forecasts and expectations for future periods are dependent upon many assumptions, including estimates of production, decline rates from existing wells and the undertaking and outcome of future drilling activity, which may be affected by significant commodity price declines or drilling cost increases. 2

Boe/d per million units Implied Quarterly Distribution Significant Future Growth Trajectory Viper s goal is to grow production faster than the Permian Basin average Using third-party research, if Viper were to only grow at the Basin projections for the next two years, production would be ~132 Boe/d per million units in 2018 (up 23%) and ~159 Boe/d in 2019 (up 48%), or a 8.6% and 10.3% yield at today s price and 17 realized pricing and margins (1)(2) Forward Viper Production Using Forecasted Permian Basin Growth 225 200 175 Implied Avg.

How Viper Defines a True Net Royalty Acre Methodology for deriving Net Royalty Acreage differs widely across the industry Many companies calculate assuming there are eight royalty acres for every one net mineral acre (NMA) Viper derives its total net royalty acreage from net mineral ownership taking into consideration the royalty interest AND all other burdens Acreage Definition Comparison (1) Viper s Formula for Net Royalty Acreage Net Mineral Acres Royalty Interest and other burdens Net Royalty Acres Viper believes its methodology more accurately defines its acreage for which it will receive revenue NRA Example Assuming Standard ¼ Royalty Viper Net Royalty Acres Viper Net Royalty Acres (Normalized to 1/8) 9,173 73,384 0 20,000 40,000 60,000 80,000 640-acre section 100% Mineral Interest 640 NMA Mineral Acres 640 NMA Mineral Acres 160 NRA Royalty Acres 1,280 NRA Royalty Acres Source: Management estimates.
