Appendix: Non-GAAP Measures

14

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking net income before interest, tax, unrealized mark-to-market movements on the oil derivative instrument,

depreciation and amortization. We believe that the exclusion of these items enables investors and other users of our financial information to assess our sequential and

year over year performance and operating trends on a more comparable basis and is consistent with management’s own evaluation of business performance. Adjusted

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to net (loss) income or any other indicator of Golar's performance calculated

in accordance with US GAAP. Please see next slide for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income.

Further Adjusted EBITDA: We have utilized Q3 2018 Further Adjusted EBITDA for the purposes of showing the proportion of Adjusted EBITDA that is attributable to

Golar after removing the Partnership’s share of Hilli Adjusted EBITDA and the impact of non-occurring items. In looking at Q4 2018 Adjusted EBITDA, management has

removed One LNG dissolution costs and receipt of Tundra claim monies as these items would not be expected to occur on a regular basis. Management believes that

that the definition of Further Adjusted EBITDA provides relevant and useful information to investors. The following slide presents a reconciliation to the most directly

comparable financial measure under US GAAP. Further Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent future cashflows from operations or net income (loss) as defined

by US GAAP. This measure should be seen as a supplement to and not a substitute for our US GAAP measures of performance and the financial results calculated in

accordance with US GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. Please see next slide for a reconciliation of Further Adjusted EBITDA.

Partnership’s share of Hilli Adjusted EBITDA: In Q3 2018, we completed the dropdown of 50% of the Common Units in Golar HilliLLC to the Partnership. As we

have retained control we continue to consolidate the results of Golar Hilli LLC on a line by line basis. In order to calculate our proportionate share of Adjusted EBITDA

management has removed the amount attributable to the Partnership. The Partnership’s share of Hilli Adjusted EBITDA is defined as the Partnership’s share of Golar

Hilli LLC’s revenue and operating expenses before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization. From a US GAAP perspective the Partnersh ip’s share of Golar HilliLLC

is reflected within “net income attributable to non-controlling interests”. Partnership’s share of Hilli Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent future cashflows

attributable to the Partnership. The measure should be seen as a supplement to and not a substitute for our US GAAP measures of performance.

Contract Earnings Backlog: Contract earnings backlog represents Golar’s share of contracted fee income for executed contracts less forecasted operating expenses

for these contracts. In calculating forecasted operating expenditure, management has assumed that where there is an Operating Services Agreement the amount

receivable under the services agreement will cover the associated operating costs. For contracts, which do not have a separate Operating Services Agreement

management has made an assumption about operating costs based on the current run rate. The only material application of this methodology was to the Hilli Earnings

backlog where we assumed operating costs of approximately $120kpd. For consolidated subsidiaries where we do not own 100% of the share capital, management

has only included our proportionate share of contract earnings. The material application of this assumption was to Gimi (70% ownership) and Hilli (44.5% of the

Common Unit entitlement). No contracted fee income was included for T3 or for the Hilli oil derivative. For equity accounted investments (the Partnership and Golar

Power) we have included our proportionate share of their contract earnings backlog under the same assumptions that we have applied to our consolidated subsidiaries.

In the future when our contract earnings backlog actualises, we will show our share of their earnings net of interest and tax in one line in the Income Statement “Equity

in net earnings/(losses) of affiliates”. Management has not forecasted net income for these initiatives as information to provide such a forward-looking estimate is not

available without unreasonable effort. Contract earnings backlog is not intended to represent EBITDA or future cashflows that will be generated from these projects.

This measure should be seen as a supplement and not a substitute for our US GAAP measures of performance.

Change of presentation: With effect from the quarter ended June 30, 2018, we presented a new line item in operating expenses in the income statement. The new

line item, "Project development expenses", includes the costs associated with pursuing future contracts and developing our pipeline of activities that have not met our

internal threshold for capitalization. Previously, these costs were presented within "Administrative expenses" along with our general overhead costs. We believe that the

introduction of this new line item in the income statement provides users of our financial statements greater transparency over a key element of our business. This

presentation change has been retrospectively adjusted in prior periods.
