CONSIDERABLE RESERVE BASE WITH ETHANE OPTIONALITY 40 year proved reserve life based on 2013 production Reserve base provides significant exposure to liquids-rich projects 3P reserves of over 2.2 BBbl of NGLs and condensate in ethane recovery mode; 33% liquids Ethane rejection occurs when ethane is left in the wellhead gas stream as the gas is processed, rather than being separated out and sold as a liquid after fractionation. When ethane is left in the gas stream, the BTU content of the residue gas at the outlet of the processing plant is higher. Producers will elect to reject ethane when the price received for the higher BTU residue gas is greater than the price received for the ethane being sold as a liquid after fractionation. When ethane is recovered, the BTU content of the residue gas is lower, but a producer is then able to recover the value of the ethane sold as a separate NGL product.

POSITIVE RATINGS MOMENTUM Moodys / S&P Historical Credit Ratings The positive outlook reflects the potential for a positive rating action if the company is able to continue to increase reserves and production in the Marcellus and Utica shales, increase liquids production, while continuing to improve credit measures. - S&P Credit Research, March 2014 An upgrade could be considered if debt / average daily production is sustained below $20,000 per boe and debt / proved-developed reserves is sustained below $8.00 per boe. An upgrade would also be contingent on Antero maintaining unleveraged cash margins greater than $25.00 per boe and retained cash flow to debt over 40% as it builds out infrastructure needs to support production growth.

CAUTIONARY NOTE The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserve estimates (collectively, 3P). Antero has provided internally generated estimates for proved, probable and possible reserves in this presentation in accordance with SEC guidelines and definitions. The estimates of proved, probable and possible reserves as of December 31, 2013 included in this presentation have been audited by Anteros third-party engineers. Unless otherwise noted, reserve estimates are as of December 31, 2013, in ethane rejection and strip pricing. Actual quantities that may be ultimately recovered from Anteros interests may differ substantially from the estimates in this presentation. Factors affecting ultimate recovery include the scope of Anteros ongoing drilling program, which will be directly affected by commodity prices, the availability of capital, drilling and production costs, availability of drilling services and equipment, drilling results, lease expirations, transportation constraints, regulatory approvals and other factors; and actual drilling results, including geological and mechanical factors affecting recovery rates. In this presentation: 3P reserves refer to Anteros estimated aggregate proved, probable and possible reserves as of December 31, 2013. The SEC prohibits companies from aggregating proved, probable and possible reserves in filings with the SEC due to the different levels of certainty associated with each reserve category. EUR, or Estimated Ultimate Recovery, refers to Anteros internal estimates of per well hydrocarbon quantities that may be potentially recovered from a hypothetical future well completed as a producer in the area. These quantities do not necessarily constitute or represent reserves within the meaning of the Society of Petroleum Engineers Petroleum Resource Management System or the SECs oil and natural gas disclosure rules. Condensate refers to gas having a heat content between 1250 BTU and 1300 BTU in the Utica Shale. Highly-Rich Gas/Condensate refers to gas having a heat content between 1275 BTU and 1350 BTU in the Marcellus Shale and 1225 BTU and 1250 BTU in the Utica Shale. Highly-Rich Gas refers to gas having a heat content between 1200 BTU and 1275 BTU in the Marcellus Shale and 1200 BTU and 1225 BTU in the Utica Shale. Rich Gas refers to gas having a heat content of between 1100 BTU and 1200 BTU. Dry Gas refers to gas containing insufficient quantities of hydrocarbons heavier than methane to allow their commercial extraction or to require their removal in order to render the gas suitable for fuel use.
