This presentation contains statements, estimates and projections which are forward-looking statements (as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Statements that are nothistorical are forward-looking, and include our operational and strategic plans; estimates of gas reserves and resources; the projected timing and rates of return of future investments; and projections and estimates offuture production, revenues, income and capital spending. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those statements, plans, estimatesand projections. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of future actual results. Factors that could cause future actual results to differ materially from theforward-looking statements include risks, contingencies and uncertainties that relate to, among other matters, the following: pricing volatility for natural gas and natural gas liquids based upon a number of factorsbeyond our control including oversupply relative to the demand for our products, weather and the price and availability of alternative fuels; an extended decline in the prices we receive for our natural gas and naturalgas liquids affecting our operating results and cash flows; our dependence on gathering, processing and transportation facilities and other midstream facilities owned by CNXM and others; disruption of, capacityconstraints in, or proximity to pipeline systems, and decreases in availability of third-party pipelines or other midstream facilities interconnected to CNXM’s gathering systems; uncertainties in estimating oureconomically recoverable natural gas reserves, and inaccuracies in our estimates; the high-risk nature of drilling natural gas wells; our identified drilling locations are scheduled out over multiple years, making themsusceptible to uncertainties that could materially alter the occurrence or timing of their drilling; the impact of potential, as well as any adopted environmental regulations; risks inherent in natural gas operations;decreases in the availability of, or increases in the price of, required personnel, services, equipment, parts and raw materials; impairment of certain of our gas assets if natural gas prices remain depressed or drillingefforts are unsuccessful; the competitive nature of the natural gas industry or overcapacity in this industry; deterioration in the economic conditions in any of the industries in which our customers operate, a domestic orworldwide financial downturn, or negative credit market conditions; hedging activities may prevent us from benefiting from price increases and may expose us to other risks; inability to collect payments from customersif their creditworthiness declines or if they fail to honor their contracts; existing and future government laws, regulations and other legal requirements that govern our business may increase our costs of doing businessand may restrict our operations; significant costs and liabilities may be incurred as a result of pipeline and related facility integrity management program testing; our ability to find adequate water sources and to disposeof or recycle water used or removed from strata; the outcomes of various legal proceedings; acquisitions and divestitures we anticipate may not occur or produce anticipated benefits; risks associated with our debt;failure to find or acquire economically recoverable natural gas reserves to replace our current natural gas reserves; any decrease in our borrowing base; operating with one or more joint venture partners or incircumstances where we are not the operator, which may restrict our operational and corporate flexibility; changes in federal or state income tax laws; challenges associated with strategic determinations, including theallocation of capital and other resources to strategic opportunities; terrorist attacks or cyber-attacks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations; construction of newmidstream assets by CNXM may not result in revenue increases and may be subject to risks; dependence on key members of management and our ability to attract and retain experienced technical and otherprofessional personnel; issues relating to our the separation of CONSOL Energy, including failure to realize expected benefits, failure to perform under various transaction agreements that were executed as part of theseparation, including with respect to indemnification obligations and the possibility of substantial tax liability; and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Additional factors are described in detail under thecaptions "Forward Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), as supplemented by ourquarterly reports on Form 10-Q. The forward-looking statements in this presentation speak only as of the date of this presentation; we disclaim any obligation to update the statements, and we caution you not to rely onthem unduly.

Currently, the SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible oil and gas reserves that a company anticipates as of a given date to be economically andlegally producible and deliverable by application of development projects to known accumulations.

We may use certain terms in this presentation, such as EUR (estimated ultimate recovery), unproved reserves and total resource potential, that the SEC's rules strictly prohibit us from including in filings with the SEC.We caution you that the SEC views such estimates as inherently unreliable and these estimates may be misleading to investors unless the investor is an expert in the natural gas industry. These measures are by theirnature more speculative than estimates of reserves prepared in accordance with SEC definitions and guidelines and accordingly are less certain. We also note that the SEC strictly prohibits us from aggregating proved,probable and possible reserves in filings with the SEC due to the different levels of certainty associated with each reserve category.

Except for proved reserve data, the information included in this presentation is based on a summary review of the title to the gas rights we hold. As is customary in the gas industry, prior to the commencement ofnatural gas drilling operations on our properties, we conduct a thorough title examination and perform curative work with respect to significant defects. We are typically responsible for curing any title defects at ourexpense. As a result of our title review or otherwise, we may be required to acquire property rights from third parties at our expense in order to effectively drill and produce the gas rights we control and third partiesmay participate in the wells we drill, thereby reducing our working interest in those wells.

This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of offers to buy securities of CNX Resources Corporation or CNX Midstream Partners LP.

Operations: Q4 2017 Results Summary

10

Marcellus Shale costs were $2.32 per Mcfe in Q4 2017, an increase of $0.12 from $2.20 per Mcfe vs. Q4 2016, or a 5% impairment- Gathering costs increased due to higher processing

and CNX Midstream fees related to an increase in the production mix towards wet gas

Utica Shale costs were $1.59 per Mcfe in Q4 2017, a decrease of $0.27 from $1.86 per Mcfe in Q4 2016, or a 15% improvement- Transportation, gathering and compression

expenses improved as lower cost volumes came online in Monroe County

Capital expenditures increased in Q4 2017 to $233.4 million, from $149.5 million spent in Q3 2017 due primarily to an increase in completions activity

(1) Average Sales Prices for 4Q2017, 4Q2016, and 3Q2017 include gains on commodity derivative instruments (cash settlements) of $0.19, $0.46, and $0.20, respectively.

(2) Average Costs for 4Q2017, 4Q2016, and 3Q2017 include DD&A of $1.01, $1.05, and $1.00, respectively.

Source: Company filings.Note: Financial results for 2017 reflect provisional amounts related to the December 2017 enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. These provisional estimates are based on CNX's initial analysis and current interpretation of the legislation. Given the complexity of the legislation, anticipated guidance from the U.S. Treasury, and the potential for additional guidance from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or the Financial Accounting Standards Board, these estimates may be adjusted during 2018. As a result, CNX continues to evaluate the impacts to the company's balance sheet and cash flow statements and expects to provide an update with its 10-K filing.
