Realizing EQT’s Potential February 2019

We Want To Deliver EQT’s Potential to Shareholders What Is Our Goal? Transform EQT into the lowest cost gas operator in the U.S. Reduce well costs to levels this asset base merits and realize the synergies EQT promised from the RICE merger Having reviewed EQT’s 2019 development plan, we are even more confident in our ability to generate $500mm/year (10% of EQT’s market cap/year) of additional free cash flow versus the current EQT plan Why Are We Involved? As significant shareholders (7.5mm shares), we were disappointed with EQT’s 2018 operational miss. This miss prompted significant shareholder outreach to the Rice team due to our experience developing EQT’s assets Rice initiated private dialogue with EQT to offer our assistance in fixing the business. EQT ignored our outreach and the views of many shareholders EQT’s 2019 plan demonstrates their lack of vision about what is possible with its assets What Are We Offering? Qualified CEO with proven track record and 10-15 former Rice Energy operational leaders standing by Team that has consistently delivered superior operating performance on substantially the same asset base We have highly qualified director candidates whom we will nominate if the Company will not meaningfully engage with us 2

The Rice Plan

Our Plan is to Transform EQT into the Lowest Cost Gas Operator Transform EQT into the lowest cost gas operator in the U.S. Decrease well costs to improve EQT’s free cash flow profile by $500mm/yr (10% of EQT’s market cap/yr) We see substantial additional opportunities for further free cash flow beyond our initial $500mm/yr goal How? 1. Add Proven Leadership: RICE delivered peer leading well costs & productivity while being named #1 Top Workplace in Pittsburgh. Full team is standing by 2. Implement Technology Platform: RICE apps to streamline organization and digitize workflows 3. Effective Planning: Align and incentivize employees, optimize schedule to enable combo pad development(1) What do we need? Toby Rice as CEO, former COO of Rice Energy who pioneered RICE’s digital transformation New Board Leadership to oversee shareholder mandate for change 1. See Appendix (slide 32) for details on combo development. 4

Lower Well Costs Drive FCF Generation in any Price Environment The key to unlocking shareholder value is decreasing well costs These well costs were achieved by Rice Energy on the same asset base 12,000’ PA-Marcellus Well Cost Bridge $1,400 $1,200 $1,250 $1,000 $125 $1,095 $80 $800 $890 $ /ft $600 $400 $200 – (1) (2) (3) EQT 2018 Actual EQT 2019 Headline Pad and Facilities Capitalized Costs EQT All-In 2019 Goal Proven Leadership Technological Transformation Effective Planning Lower Well Costs $735 $700 Rice RICE (4) All-In Goal Track Record Updated for EQT 2019 development activity.

Rice estimates PA-Marcellus 2018 EQT well costs of $1,250/ft inclusive of pad construction, facilities, capitalized overhead and other capex. 2. EQT estimates $95mm of pad construction and facilities capex in PA-Marcellus in 2019. Pad construction capex distributed over net horizontal feet spud and facilities capex distributed over net horizontal feet TIL per EQT 2019 guidance 3. EQT estimates $200mm of capitalized overhead and other capex in 2019.

RICE track record for 11,000’ laterals. Per RICE conference call transcripts.

RICE Operated at Lower Well Costs Than Our Targeted Goal RICE’s historical well costs demonstrate the cost savings of developing longer laterals Thesis underpinning the RICE/EQT merger in 2017 Longer laterals = lower well costs per foot From 2Q16 to 3Q17 (RICE’s final quarter before the merger), RICE averaged $790/ft for laterals with an average lateral length of 8,800’ When afforded the opportunity to drill longer laterals (i.e. >11,000’, those available to EQT following the RICE merger), RICE developed laterals for ~$700/ft EQT’s 2019 average PA-Marcellus lateral length = 12,000’ PA-Marcellus Costs vs. Lateral Length $1,300 $1,200 $1,100 $1,000 $ /ft D&C $900 $800 $700 $600 $500 $400 EQT 2018 Actual (1) $1,250/ft EQT 2019 Guidance (2) $1,095/ft RICE 2017 Budget: $875/ft (Revised down in 2Q) EQT “10% Initiative” $735/ft Rice Guidance $700/ft Long Term Goal Rice Well Cost Curve RICE Results (3) RICE Quarterly Avg: 8,800’ Laterals: $790/ft Budget/Guidance 4,000 6,000 8,000 10,000 12,000 14,000 Lateral Length 1.

Effective Planning Increases Efficiency & Lowers Well Costs Rig Mobilizations â–ª EQT’s chaotic rig mobilizations are the output of a highly disorganized operations schedule – Increases drilling costs but also creates challenges for subsequent derivative operations (e.g. completions, production) driving up total well costs â–ª RICE’s well scheduling app facilitated interdepartmental collaboration to drive operational and logistical efficiency â–ª RICE rig mobilizations were 4x more efficient than EQT Rig Efficiency â–ª Drilling performance is heavily dependent on an efficient operations schedule â–ª Leadership, technology and effective planning allowed RICE to double its rig efficiency in 2016 â–ª RICE drilled at nearly 2x the pace as EQT â–ª In 2018 (after the merger), EQT operated RICE’s rigs and schedule and saw a 50% uplift over 2017 but has since regressed Horizontal Feet Drilled Per Rig, Per Year 400,000 342,439 RICE Rigs/Schedule 338,378 Operated by EQT 300,000 274,912 220,650 200,000 175,408 161,340 143,358 146,494 100,000 – 2015 2016 2017 2018 Midstream Curtailments â–ª EQT has 10% of its production shut-in due to midstream curtailments representing $250mm of cash flow â–ª EQT does not expect to solve its curtailment issues until YE2020 â–ª RICE operated at 99% uptime due to effective planning which allowed our midstream provider to service our volumes without curtailments 8

Attempt Response To Discredit to EQT’s Rice

The Facts Refute EQT’s Claims EQT Claim EQT is a new team with a new focus RICE was a small-scale, early stage enterprise. EQT is big and complex Rice did not provide a detailed plan Not all development activity is in PA-Marcellus. Not practical to drill 150 wells at 12,000’ average lateral length given capacity and acreage portfolio Rice’s estimated well costs ignore historical results and today’s oilfield service market Rice fails to account for EQT’s footprint, infrastructure and produced water dynamics No EUR uplift exists between EQT’s wells at 880’ spacing and the Rice 1,000’ claim Rice expensed many well cost components that are capitalized by EQT, artificially deflating $/foot metric representing $150mm of cash flow per year 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 The Facts EQT’s team is not new: executive team has an average 12 year tenure, Chairman has 23 year tenure Current leadership has consistently lagged peer operator performance In 2017, RICE ran 8 rigs across 2 states with a $1bn D&C budget In 2019, EQT will run 10 rigs, 90% within RICE’s footprint with a $1.2bn budget (using Rice costs) At RICE/EQT integration, Rice provided a detailed blueprint for the asset base over 5-month period EQT fired RICE leaders/ignored systems. Now: Ignoring again. In 2019, EQT is horizontally drilling 143 wells with an average lateral length of 12,000’ in PA-Marcellus Our updated analysis accounts for EQT’s development plan (avg lateral lengths and capital allocation) No change to our free cash flow estimates RICE executed at $700/ft on long laterals (11,000’) Rice’s forecast is based on today’s service costs and planned lateral lengths All Appalachia Peers except EQT have decreased well costs since 2016 and 2017 90% of EQT’s 2019 activity is concentrated within RICE’s operating footprint Our forecasted well costs reflect EQT’s produced water dynamics RICE wells consistently outperform EQT’s by 10% RICE’s historical well design (250+ wells) is 20% more aggressive than EQT’s historical frac and in line with EQT’s new upsized frac. RICE’s aggressive base design is already in our well cost assumptions EQT’s assertions around spacing are based on a sample size of 3 wells, not supported by robust data set RICE actual LOE ($/mcfe) was lower than EQT’s LOE based on 3Q17 results (pre-merger) EQT’s low 2019 LOE is a function of fixed cost leverage afforded by the RICE merger No material accounting differences; companies had same accounting firm & audit partner EQT Jan 2019 Presentation/Conference Call Jan 2019 Letter from EQT Board delivered to Toby and Derek Rice 12

An Example of EQT’s Claims Hiding the Real Story What EQT Presents Costs for 1H 2017 Wells â–ª EQT: $695/ft â–ª RICE: $755/ft Rice Response â–ª We believe EQT’s well costs have been erroneously adjusted downwards in an attempt to normalize costs (1) â–ª EQT costs could be $125-$250/ft higher when including capitalized costs, pad and facilities, etc. The Rest of the Story for Those 1H 2017 Wells All Wells TIL in 1H 2017 EQT: 16 Wells Rice: 19 Wells Frac Design Rice design was 20% more aggressive 10% more sand per foot 12% more water per foot 22% more stages per foot Frac RICE EQT Design Sand 2,200 #/ft 2,000 #/ft Water 2,040 gl/ft 1,810 gl/ft Stage 160’ 195’ Length 18 Months of Production (2) Rice wells outperforming EQT by 50% 2000 1800 1600 (Mcf/1k’) 1400 1200 1000’ RICE 1000 Per 800 Rate Daily 600 EQT 400 200 0 0 6 12 18 24 Months Online RICE Economics 50% Higher EURs 30-50% Lower F&D Costs(3) 1. Robert McNally: “EQT’s cost per foot on an Apples-to-Apples basis during the first half of 2017 was $695 per foot”. EQT could have erroneously subtracted $70/ft or more from their historical well costs due to their belief that Rice piped 100% of its frac water needs. Further, Rice costs include pad construction and facilities cost ($70-$80/ft) and based on EQT’s 2019 disclosure on well costs, it is uncertain if EQT adjusted their well costs to include pad, facilities or capitalized costs. 13 2. Source: Raw data from RSEG 3. Low end of range based on using EQT’s well cost as presented and adjusted by EQT. High-end based on Rice team estimate for EQT well costs inclusive of pad, facilities and capitalized costs.

Conclusion

The Option in Front of Shareholders Team Rice ✓Team: Highly qualified and experienced team – Successful, experienced senior leadership – #1 Appalachia stock performer: 95% outperformance vs peers (1) ✓Plan: Proven and executed before – Operational model formulated through years of developing this exact asset – Successfully implemented at Rice Energy, an industry leader in Appalachia ✓Track Record: Peer-leading results – Basin leading costs and well productivity – Averaged $790/ft for 8,800’ PA-Marcellus laterals last 6 quarters and ~$700/ft for 11,000’ laterals Offering Targets We Have Exceeded in the Past with Multiple, Identified Opportunities for Further Upside 1. Peers include: AR, COG, CNX, EQT, RRC, GPOR. EQT â–ª Team: Legacy EQT employees that have not delivered – CEO with little to no operational experience – CEO appointed team has 12-year average tenure at EQT â–ª Plan: Untested with a lack of supporting evidence – Working towards “manufacturing mode” for 2-years with no meaningful progress – Despite best of intentions to do better, little evidence of capability to do so â–ª Track Record: No improvement to well costs – $10bn in acquisitions to enable long laterals. No cost benefits realized – Averaged $1,250/ft for 12,000’ PA-Marcellus laterals in 2018 Offering Aspirational Goals They Have Failed to Achieve and Are Below Peers 15

We Want To Deliver EQT’s Potential to Shareholders â–ª We plan to deliver $500mm/year (10% of EQT’s market cap/year) of additional FCF versus EQT’s plan – We see further upside through a number of specifically-identified optimization opportunities – We own 7.5mm shares and are fully aligned with shareholders – We offer a qualified CEO with a proven track record and 10-15 Rice Energy operational leaders standing by – This team has consistently delivered superior operating performance on the exact same asset base EQT operates today â–ª Our have plan not been is based able on to targets achieve we and have are exceeded far above in Rice’s the past. targets EQT’s plan is based on aspirational targets they – EQT requires new leadership. Appointment of a single, external COO is insufficient â–ª We hope to reach swift resolution with the EQT Board – We first tried private engagement and were ignored. Our first choice remains settlement – We to turn have the highly Company qualified around director candidates whom we will nominate if the Board will not adopt the necessary change – The traditionally Board should been reach held for swift decades resolution with us or let shareholders vote in April when EQT’s annual meeting has 16

Not practical to drill 150 wells at 12,000’ average lateral length given capacity and acreage portfolio Now that EQT has provided more details on its 2019 development plans, we now have increased confidence in our ability to generate $500mm/year of additional free cash flow versus EQT’s plan Our cash flow estimates account for EQT’s 2019 capital allocation, development schedule and lateral lengths We expect well cost reductions across all 3 operating areas, with 90% of the incremental cash flow generation from RICE’s historical operating footprint Development Plan Region: PA-Marcellus WV-Marcellus OH-Utica Avg./Tot.

5 Peers Have Reduced Well Costs Every Year Since 2015 EQT Claim: Rice’s estimated well costs ignore historical results and today’s oilfield service market Despite marginal service cost fluctuations, peers have consistently lowered well costs every year – Peer Well Costs – EQT Well Costs • Down 36% vs. 2015 • Up 8% vs. 2015 • Down 6% vs. 2017 • Up 8% vs. 2017 Peer well costs decline due to benefits of longer laterals and operational efficiencies EQT laterals spent to drive $10bn down in acquisitions development to enable costs per longer foot – despite No well a cost larger savings increase realized in lateral to date length with versus this team peers We increases suspect due EQT to is ineffective more susceptible planning to and service a higher cost reliance on the spot market Indexed Well Cost Performance Over Time PA and WV Marcellus Development 150% 150 140% 140 130% EQT Well Costs 130 120% 120 (2) (1) 109 110% 116 110 Index Index Service Index 108% 100% 100 DCS Cost rs Well 90% 93 93 90 Spea 80% 80 Peers Well Costs 70% 64% 70 60% 60 50% 50 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 Peer Lateral Lengths(1) 7,500 7,600 8,600 9,800 10,900 EQT Lateral Lengths 5,500 7,000 7,000 12,000 13,200 1.

5 EQT is the Only Operator Citing Service Costs as an Excuse EQT is more susceptible to service cost increases due to ineffective planning and a higher reliance on the spot market 4Q17 Reports (February 2018) 1Q18 Reports (April 2018) 2Q18 Reports (July 2018) 3Q18 Reports (October 2018) Service Cost Pressure Was Self-Inflicted RRC: “These drilling efficiencies have served to offset some of the increased service costs we’ve seen. This is reflected in our well economics that show improvement on a normalized cost basis in 2018.” EQT “For example, Rice had a significant frac sand sourcing and logistics effort, which we leverage to improve efficiency – pricing and efficiency across our factories.” CNX: “Based on current market conditions for labor, equipment and commodities, we’re not expecting any major increases from renegotiations, and have reaffirmed our full-year 2018 capital budget” RRC: “With these efficiency gains, the team has been able to offset small service cost increases and ensure well costs remain in line with the guidance we provided from the last call in February.” EQT: “These real-time control centers are a great example of EQT’s manufacturing operating model that we believe will result in efficiency gains and cost reductions by streamlining our processes.” RRC: “…we’ve really not only been able to stave any increases off, but the efficiencies along with it have been able to help us keep our cost flat and in some cases we’re still seeing cost reductions across the board when you look at our D&C cost ” AR: “Turning to well costs, earlier this year, there was considerable concern over service cost inflation. But given the continued efficiency gains by the industry and the constraints that are occurring in the Permian, service costs have recently softened ” EQT: “Yeah. I’d say just broadly it’s just a deceleration of activity by us and some of our peers, where we’re just – we’ve laid down a few frac crews, a few rigs, and it doesn’t take much slack in that market for it to really impact pricing. So, I think it’s just a general slowing and then there’s a bit of excess capacity particularly on the pressure pumping side.” RRC: “I think as we look over the course of 2018 from a service cost standpoint, we’ve really seen, what I would say is, some very small increases but they have tended to be very kind of line item and niche in nature…., So at this point we really haven’t seen a cost increase when you look at, let’s just say, total cost involved to land, drill and produce our wells.” EQT: “So, on the cost side, we really saw the tightness in cost escalation in mid-year when we were running — at one point we were running 12 frac crews, 15 rigs, and on a daily basis would have something like 500 trucks on the road. That’s where we saw the tightness in the cost increase. Now, as we’ve gotten into the fourth quarter, we backed off on that pace and we’re down at, I think, 7, today, frac crews and getting to a level where we expect to run long term. And so those costs have come down and we expect that to continue. So, on the cost side, the higher costs that we saw through the middle part of the year have abated as we reduced our activity.” 25

7 RICE’s Well Results Demonstrate Better Understanding of the Reservoir EQT Claim: Rice’s wider spaced wells will have lower EURs than EQT’s because Rice isn’t upsizing their frac. Rice Response 1. EQT erroneously equates sand amounts with frac effectiveness 2. Sand loading is not the primary driver of production • Water and Stage Length are the drivers of performance 3.

No Matter How You Allocate Costs, EQT’s Cost Structure is Too High RICE control was of a an more E&P efficient operator: operator (1) D&C, than (2) EQT LOE and and that (3) G&A translated into lower cash costs across the 3 primary cost categories that are in In way our to base compare analysis, cost we structures have allocated is to assume EQT’s EQT capitalized and RICE’s costs capitalized and “other” costs to their and “other” well costs are because booked EQT to G&A. capitalizes Under these this scenario: costs.

For a 12,000’ PA Marcellus well. Includes pad construction and facilities cost but excludes capitalized costs and other. 2. RICE capitalized costs were less than $10mm in 2017 and would not be higher if managing EQT’s asset base. EQT’s 2019 guidance of $200mm for capitalized costs and “other” reduced by $20mm for capitalized interest (which we estimate based on EQT’s historical financial statements) which implies $180mm of capitalized costs/other are for well development. It is possible EQT would allocate these costs to production versus well development and thus under this analysis, the costs would result in higher LOE versus higher G&A. RICE’s track record shows that our LOE 31 was trending lower than EQT’s despite a smaller production base and that fixed cost leverage has enabled lower LOE pro forma for the merger. We would not anticipate any changes to LOE guidance and believe there is upside.
