Propane and butane increasingly becoming a globally priced product as U.S. domestic supply has the ability to reach primary demand growth centers in Asia
Global Propane and Butane Outlook Growing Propane and Butane Demand
Source: PIRA report dated March 17, 2017.
And Healthy Global Demand1
Global propane and butane LPG demand growing at or above global GDP, equating to 1.6 MMBbls/d of incremental demand forecast from 2017 – 2025
‒ Demand driven primarily by industrialization and urbanization in Asia
‒ Asia becoming the “price setter” as the world’s largest demand center
‒ Appalachia geographically advantaged for Europe destination cargoes and at parity for Asia destination cargoes vs. the Gulf Coast

Capital efficiencies have significantly reduced E&P outspend and are expected to result in drilling and completion (D&C) capex within E&P free cash flow by 2019
D&C Capex vs. Stand-alone E&P Cash Flow ($MM) - $3.00 Gas / $54 Oil
D&C Capital to be funded with E&P Cash Flow (1)
Note: E&P cash flow represents E&P cash flow from operations plus AM distributions from condensed consolidating statement of cash flows in Antero Resources’ 10-K.1. E&P free cash flow represents AR stand alone cash flow from operations, plus distributions from LP ownership in AM, plus earn out payments associated with water drop-down ($125 MM in each of 2019 and
2020) less stand-alone D&C capex which includes water fees paid to AM for completions which are capitalized on stand-alone basis. 2. Consolidated D&C capex excludes water fees paid to AM for completions.

Accelerate trend towards investment grade quality – current corporate ratings Ba2/BB
Maintain conservative leverage profile below 3.0x near-term (on stand-alone basis) with medium-term target of low 2x leverage
Fund drilling and completion capital with stand-alone upstream cash flow from operations (including AM distributions and earn-out payments from water business sale in 2015)
Continue to hedge over a rolling five to six year period to support consistent production development into long-term processing and firm transportation commitments, smoothing volatile oil and gas prices

Ethane Fundamentals and Improving Pricing
U.S. Domestic Steam Cracker Capacity (MBbl/d)
Ethane OutlookSignificant domestic demand growth for ethane driven
by construction and expansion of world-class steam crackers
‒ Antero is an anchor supplier (30 MBbl/d) to Shell’s planned ethane cracker in Beaver Co, PA
Ethane rejection rates will continue to decrease; however, ethane supply will be partially restricted by takeaway capacity
‒ U.S. is currently rejecting ~575 MBbl/d of ethane240 MBbl/d of seaborne export capacity completed in
2016 provides additional outlet to global markets‒ Additional 100 MBbl/d of demand via pipeline exports
to Canada
Shell - PADoes not include ~350 MBbl/d of additional cracking capacity that has been proposed but has not
reached FID

Cautionary Note
The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserve estimates (collectively, “3P”). Antero has provided internally generated estimates for proved, probable and possible reserves in this presentation in accordance with SEC guidelines and definitions. The estimates of proved, probable and possible reserves as of December 31, 2016 included in this presentation have been audited by Antero’s third-party engineers. Unless otherwise noted, reserve estimates as of December 31, 2016 assume ethane rejection and strip pricing.
Actual quantities that may be ultimately recovered from Antero’s interests may differ substantially from the estimates in this presentation. Factors affecting ultimate recovery include the scope of Antero’s ongoing drilling program, which will be directly affected by commodity prices, 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.
In this presentation:
“3P reserves” refer to Antero’s estimated aggregate proved, probable and possible reserves as of December 31, 2016. The SEC prohibits companies from aggregating proved, probable and possible reserves in filings with the SEC due to the different levels of certainty associated with each reserve category.
“EUR,” or “Estimated Ultimate Recovery,” refers to Antero’s internal estimates of per well hydrocarbon quantities that may be potentially recovered from a hypothetical future well completed as a producer in the area. These quantities do not necessarily constitute or represent reserves within the meaning of the Society of Petroleum Engineer’s Petroleum Resource Management System or the SEC’s oil and natural gas disclosure rules.
“Condensate” refers to gas having a heat content between 1250 BTU and 1300 BTU in the Utica Shale.
“Highly-Rich Gas/Condensate” refers to gas having a heat content between 1275 BTU and 1350 BTU in the Marcellus Shale and 1225 BTU and 1250 BTU in the Utica Shale.
“Highly-Rich Gas” refers to gas having a heat content between 1200 BTU and 1275 BTU in the Marcellus Shale and 1200 BTU and 1225 BTU in the Utica Shale.
“Rich Gas” refers to gas having a heat content of between 1100 BTU and 1200 BTU.
“Dry Gas” refers to gas containing insufficient quantities of hydrocarbons heavier than methane to allow their commercial extraction or to require their removal in order to render the gas suitable for fuel use.
