Executive Summary 4 J.P. Morgan (“JPM”) is pleased to provide the materials herein to the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Antero Resources Corporation (“AR, “Antero”) and its advisors regarding our review of Antero’s structural and financial alternatives Shareholders of Antero have made requests for management and the Board to consider and evaluate potential measures to remedy perceived issues associated with the following: Shareholder “misalignment”, primarily referring to the IDR value stream being held outside of the AR family Perceived valuation discount and relative underperformance of AR vs. certain Appalachia peers As a result, Antero management and its financial advisors conducted a detailed review of potential financial and structural alternatives across the Antero family of companies Based on its analysis of the potential structural alternatives, Antero management and its advisors believe that an acquisition of AM by AMGP could be attractive Financially viable to shareholders of AR, AMGP and AM Addresses AR shareholder concerns regarding mis-alignment of incentives; and Pro forma AM / AMGP would be highly-attractive midstream C-Corp with differentiated growth, coverage, leverage and yield profile A range of other potential structural alternatives have been considered, including an AM acquisition of AMGP’s IDRs In addition, AR management and its advisors have considered a range of financial alternatives and believe that repurchases of AR shares funded in part by an early monetization of the water earn-out payments could be attractive Sizable enough to be meaningful while preserving AR leverage below 2.0x for 2019 and beyond Ability to structure an early settlement that is a win-win for AR and AM Executive Summary

Wall Street Perspectives “Relatedly, on the midstream-side, investors have speculated about incentives created by varying ownership levels in AR, AM, and AMGP across both AR itself and insiders.” - Raymond James 2/15/18 “Issue centers on management and private equity ownership in AMGP with fears AR may grow more than is optimal at the expense of E&P shareholders to the benefit of midstream.” - TPH 2/20/18 “Management is clearly attuned to investor calls for greater clarity surrounding segment-level reporting and engagement with the investment community generally.” - Morgan Stanley 2/14/18 “relative valuation gap between AM and AMGP leaves a GP buy-in of the LP as the more probable outcome.” “We view a consolidation of the midstream complex as the most likely outcome of this review” - TPH 2/20/18 “Though two scenarios are explored, relative valuation gap between AM and AMGP leaves a GP buy-in of the LP as the more probable outcome. Recent sell-off at AM and taxable transaction likely necessitates a meaningful premium to the LP.” - TPH 2/20/18 “we see AM+AMGP potentially trading at 11.4x 2019e EBITDA, a level we believe could be quite attractive relative to an estimated 2019-2021 EBITDA CAGR of 22%.” - Morgan Stanley 2/14/18 “Given the easier path to accretion in the second scenario, our updated AM price target of $38/unit assumes a midpoint between an assumed takeout value of ~$36/unit (~30% premium to current).” “Recent sell-off at AM and taxable transaction likely necessitates a meaningful premium to the LP” “the combined midstream asset base could see a significant rerate with NAV of inventory blowdown >$12.5B vs. current combined equity value of ~$8.5B.” - TPH 2/20/18 10 Select broker commentary Recent Wall Street research analyst commentary has focused on the likelihood and attractiveness of an acquisition of AM by AMGP given relative valuation Summary Results

Tier I Potential Consolidation Scenarios removals of IDRs Creates “Up-C” structure for AM, and ability to raise midstream Significant near term accretion to AMGP given yield spread Dilutive to AM and AR for first few years but becomes accretive No tax impact to AR, AMGP or AM shareholders / unitholders AMGP 12 Near-term LP dilution to AM holders (including AR), particularly with respect to ‘18E-’20E DPU; may require coverage reduction, non-distribution bearing units or cash to mitigate dilution IDRs not materially impacting AM cost of capital at current time Still maintains complexity of three public currencies and doesn’t fully address perception of misalignment between AR and No tax step-up to AM (unless cash is used) Requires AMGP vote; need legal input regarding majority of minority voting Considerations Consistent with current market preference for simplifications / Lowers AM cost of capital due to elimination of IDRs capital at C-Corp and MLP levels difference between AMGP and AM longer term Benefits AMGP eliminates AM’s incentive distribution rights in exchange for newly issued AM common units and / or cash Overview AM Acquisition of AMGP IDRs Taxable to AM unitholders, though average unitholder has relatively high basis in AM units (~$24 / unit) Taxable to AR, though fully shielded by NOLs AM distribution dilution in ‘18E – ‘19E Potentially seen as reversal of AMGP IPO messaging Requires AM vote; need legal input regarding majority of minority voting Dramatically improves “mis-alignment” issue; positive for AR Compelling value proposition for both AM and AMGP AM receives up-front premium and accretion to distributions beginning in 2020 Tax shelter provided by step-up enhances AMGP DCF Analysis indicates AMGP will hold value and even improve C-Corp structure provides larger float, liquidity and access to institutional capital, reducing perceived overhang at AM today (i.e. from AR’s significant ownership of AM) Lowers AM cost of capital due to elimination of IDRs Research analysts have done pre-conditioning by referring to the AMGP acquisition of AM as most logical combination structure Potential for modest cash component with election structure to facilitate AR share repurchases AMGP acquires AM in all-equity transaction thereby eliminating the MLP AMGP Acquisition of AM

Pro forma AMGP valuation framework 26 •1 Pr o forma AMGP w ould likely be traded as a “ simple” corporate midstream company (i.e., no need to account for different valuation metrics / growth rates between standalone AM and AMGP) •2 Despite pro forma AMGP demonstrating DCF, EBITDA and cash distribution growth vastly superior to its new corporate peers (and generally as good - if not better - than comparable MLPs), at the current AMGP share price, pro forma AMGP would be trading at multiples of 2019E DCF and EBITDA appreciably below its comparables, corporate or MLP •3Moreover, a simple correlation of projected yield to distribution growth would suggest strong support for the AMGP share price materially above its current trading levels •4Lastly, pro forma AMGP would offer a conservative capital return and balance sheet posture with distribution coverage and balance sheet leverage superior to its corporate peers

Potential Market Reaction to AMGP Acquisition of AM 29  In light of substantial DCF and cash flow accretion and slightly lower growth, AMGP could see a higher trading price albeit with a higher yield  Market would positively view a tax step-up, which would materially reduce in corporate taxes going forward  AMGP holders would positively view the transaction as long as the premium is within the range of precedents  Despite having a PF multiple that would be lower than its corporate peers, PF AMGP would have superior growth and balance sheet, implying upside to the share price AMGP  As with AR, market likely to applaud elimination of IDRs and broader simplification if structured appropriately  Would be viewed positively as the slight near term dilution would be more than offset by the accretion in 2020+  Distribution growth profile for next 5+ years is materially enhanced for AM unitholders after the transaction  AM unitholders may expect a greater than market premium given the material accretion expected to be had by AMGP  As long as AM has an enhanced growth profile, higher distributions, and increased investor base through the C-Corp, AM could see a potential multiple re-rating to the upside AM Market likely to applaud elimination of IDRs and broader simplification of the Antero structure Potentially positive reaction for taking a material step to eliminate the perceived misalignment issue, as well as accretion to AM unitholders after 2018, including AR AMGP purchase of AM and elimination of IDRs helps AR pro forma cash flow (absent significant DPU reduction at AM) Transaction would potentially have a slight positive impact to AR’s share price given the above factors A larger impact to AR’s stock to the upside would require a re-rating of AR’s multiple AR

Potential Market Reaction to AM IDR Repurchase impact of IDR growth on multiple required 43 So long as value paid for IDRs is consistent with AMGP market-implied trading value and cash flow impact in near term is positive, market reaction for AMGP likely to be flat to positive In light of substantial accretion in cash flow in near-term and substantial tempering of growth, implied AMGP yield likely to rise materially After-tax yield at AMGP likely to track AM yield, although other precedents have seen C-Corp “holding company” trading at a slightly improved yield relative to the underlying MLP in light of enhanced liquidity and greater market depth AMGP As with AR, market likely to applaud elimination of IDRs and AM simplification if structured appropriately However, substantial near-term dilution to AM DCF/unit and DPU likely to be viewed as a negative by unitholders Will need to address through coverage, cash consideration and/or delivery of non-distribution bearing units Likewise, market may react negatively to multiple paid for IDRs relative to recent precedents; education regarding Assuming dilution and multiple paid are addressed, AM would be expected to trade flat/modestly down on announcement, consistent with recent precedents However, if substantial dilution to DPU were to be realized, would likely lead to very negative trading reaction AM Market likely to applaud elimination of IDRs and partial simplification with respect to AM Potential reaction may be muted by retention of three public currencies and continued perceived misalignment, as well as potential dilution to AM unitholders, including AR IDR repurchase has minimal impact on AR pro forma cash flow (absent significant DPU reduction at AM) Unless there is a re-rating of AR's multiple due to the above factors, transaction may have limited impact on AR stock price AR

Water Earn-out

Water Earn-out Executive Summary 49  Key considerations for a potential offer by AR to AM in connection with an early settlement of the earn-out of the fresh water delivery business (“Earn-Out”)  Goals for AR may include the following:  Maximize the cash proceeds received near term from any settlement  Conduct a relatively expedited negotiation process with the AM Special Committee, keeping in mind other likely transactions being considered  Enter into a transaction that would be seen as a “win-win” by both AR and AM investors  Using Street and Management estimates, reaching the 2019 Earn-Out seems certain and reaching the 2020 Earn-Out seems likely, but less certain  For the 2019 Earn-Out, volumes are expected to be 11% above the threshold (184Kbbld Street and 178Kbbld Management vs. 161Kbbld Earn-Out trigger)  For the 2020 Earn-Out, volumes are expected to meet the threshold (217Kbbld Street and 200Kbbld Management vs. 200Kbbld Earn-Out trigger)  Key topics to consider include:  Discount rate applied to the Earn-Out  Any risking factor applied to the 2020 Earn-Out  Potential value to AM of any of the following:  Raising the volume level of the existing MVCs  Extending the tenor of the MVC commitments
