Consent of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of Bellatrix Exploration Ltd.

We consent to the use of our reports, each dated March 14, 2019, with respect to the financial statements and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting appearing in the Current Report on Form 6-K of Bellatrix Energy Ltd. dated March 14, 2019.

We also consent to the incorporation by reference of such reports in the Registration Statement (No. 333-225841) on Form F-10 of Bellatrix Exploration Ltd.

Our report dated March 14, 2019 with respect to the financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the Company has significant uncertainties relating to its ability to meet its financial obligations on scheduled debt maturities which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.
