Forward Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements, as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, the following: future financial and operating performance and results; business strategy; market prices; future use of derivative financial instruments; and plans and forecasts. The Company based these forward-looking statements on current assumptions, expectations and projections about future events. The Company uses the words “may,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “intend,” “plan,” “potential,” "project," “budget” and other similar words to identify forward-looking statements. The statements that contain these words should be read carefully because they discuss future expectations, contain projections of results of operations or financial condition and/or state other “forward-looking” information. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable securities laws. These statements also involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or financial condition to materially differ from expectations in this presentation, including, but not limited to: fluctuations in the prices of oil and natural gas; the availability of oil and natural gas; future capital requirements and availability of financing, including reductions to our borrowing base and limitations on our ability to incur certain types of indebtedness under our debt agreements; our ability to meet our current and future debt service obligations, including our ability to maintain compliance with our debt covenants; disruption of credit and capital markets and the ability of financial institutions to honor their commitments; estimates of reserves and economic assumptions, including estimates related to acquisitions and dispositions of oil and natural gas properties; geological concentration of our reserves; risks associated with drilling and operating wells; exploratory risks, including those related to our activities in shale formations; discovery, acquisition, development and replacement of oil and natural gas reserves; cash flow and liquidity; timing and amount of future production of oil and natural gas; availability of drilling and production equipment; availability of water and other materials for drilling and completion activities; marketing of oil and natural gas; political and economic conditions and events in oil-producing and natural gas-producing countries; title to our properties; litigation; competition; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; general economic conditions, including costs associated with drilling and operations of our properties; our ability to comply with the listing requirements of, and maintain the listing of our common shares on, the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"); environmental or other governmental regulations, including legislation to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, legislation of derivative financial instruments, regulation of hydraulic fracture stimulation and elimination of income tax incentives available to our industry; receipt and collectability of amounts owed to us by purchasers of our production and counterparties to our derivative financial instruments; decisions whether or not to enter into derivative financial instruments; potential acts of terrorism; our ability to manage joint ventures with third parties, including the resolution of any material disagreements and our partners’ ability to satisfy obligations under these arrangements; actions of third party co-owners of interests in properties in which we also own an interest; fluctuations in interest rates; our ability to effectively integrate companies and properties that we acquire; and our ability to execute the business strategies and other corporate actions, including restructuring our balance sheet and gathering and transportation contracts It is important to communicate expectations of future performance to investors. However, events may occur in the future that EXCO is unable to accurately predict, or over which EXCO has no control. Users of the financial statements are cautioned not to place undue reliance on a forward-looking statement. Any number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in EXCO's forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the volatility of oil and natural gas prices, future capital requirements and the availability of capital and financing, uncertainties about reserve estimates, the outcome of future drilling activity, environmental risks and regulatory changes. Declines in oil or natural gas prices may have a material adverse effect on EXCO's financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, ability to fund operations and the amount of oil or natural gas that can be produced economically. Historically, oil and natural gas prices and markets have been volatile, with prices fluctuating widely, and they are likely to continue to be volatile. EXCO undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. When considering EXCO's forward-looking statements, investors are urged to read the cautionary statements and the risk factors included in EXCO's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 2, 2016 and its other periodic filings with the SEC. Revenues, operating results and financial condition substantially depend on prevailing prices for oil and natural gas and the availability of capital. Declines in oil or natural gas prices may have a material adverse effect on financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, the amount of oil or natural gas that we can produce economically and the ability to fund operations. Historically, oil and natural gas prices and markets have been volatile, with prices fluctuating widely, and they are likely to continue to be volatile.

Horizontal wells with a first production date between 1/1/12 – 4/1/16 targeting Haynesville and Bossier horizons shown on map. Established, world class gas play with significant well and seismic control allows for comprehensive understanding of reservoir dynamics and geological characteristics Proven large volume frac completion techniques generate EURs that more than double early well performance play results with substantially reduced costs have effectively re-rated the shale gas play’s economics De-risked resource, highly delineated trend areas offer substantial proved reserves and repeatable opportunity set under favorable economic risk-reward scenarios Strong breakeven (IRR 25%) prices under $2.70 / Mmbtu that can compete with Appalachian shale gas plays in a differentiated U.S. region Located in an industry friendly regulatory environment allowing for better program development execution Existing midstream infrastructure in place with premium geographical access to LNG terminals and developing demand centers Drilling and completion costs have steadily decreased over the years with continuously demonstrated improvement Well positioned for a long-term rebound on gas prices and / or gas exports from the Gulf Coast Haynesville Core Haynesville Shale EXCO BHP Chesapeake Comstock Covey Park (EP) EOG Exxon GeoSouthern (ECA) QEP Vine TX LA EXCO acreage

On-going New Completion Designs And Refrac Opportunities Are Re-Rating Play Proppant to Mcf Breakdown 1 Haynesville Re-Frac Analysis 2 The play has been economically re-rated through the application of modern completion designs using lessons learned from other resource plays and also benefitting from extensive technical and reservoir information Drilling and completion designs have evolved into larger wells and larger frac jobs with increasing EURs Larger fracs, longer laterals and wider spacing has increased the certainty of results and enhanced the inventory of economic opportunities Systematic new completion trials have been tested on the play by EXCO and several other operators in the core area have validated their results Source: RRC. Note that horizontal wells with a first production date between 1/1/13 – 4/1/16 targeting Haynesville and Bossier horizons with a lateral length of 3,000' or greater. Operators in the play have engaged in a re-frac campaign to optimize completions from existing wells several years old with new technology and understanding developed over the last five years of intense shale development in the U.S. Diagnostic results have indicated that an average of 1/3 of the lateral is effectively stimulated by modern re-fracs Allows for a significant production uplift opportunity in the future EXCO has inventory of ~270 re-fracs Restimulation of producing wells through offset new well completions supports the re-frac concept, as producing wells have realized 3x or more production enhancement Key Takeaways 3 Key Takeaways 4
