Rice’s Marcellus Shale Type Curve
___________________________
1. Represents gross type curve. Actual production is normalized to 6,000’ laterals. Normalized production excludes six wells; five due to suboptimal spacing to offset producing wells and one well excluded because majority of lateral was drilling in suboptimal zone
(second Marcellus well in Company’s history). Data has been adjusted to reflect only producing days.
2. Based on $4.00/MMBtu and 100% WI. Net horizontal feet calculation based on net revenue interest assuming a 18.5% average royalty interest in the Marcellus. Excludes Greene County Acquisition. Includes 190 unrisked locations from Greene County
acquisition. Based on historical gathering and compression fees, single well PV-10 of $6.1mm and single well IRR of 58%.
3. IRR is net to Rice’s ownership interest. Hedged IRR assumes 50% of production hedged at $4.00/MMBtu in the first year and 25% of production hedged at $4.00/MMBtu in the second year.

1. Data per RigData as of August 6, 2014.
Growth and Development
 The Utica play as a whole has contracted to the
Southern Utica Core, which has delivered some of
the highest volume shale wells in North America
 Rice controls 50,772 acres concentrated in the heart
of the core in Belmont County, surrounded on all
sides by robust results
 Rice has partnered with one of the most active and
proven operators in the play, Gulfport Energy
(NYSE: GPOR)
– Gulfport and Rice’s acreage positions are very
complementary, leading to substantial
efficiency gains with extended laterals
Utica Rigs Over Time (1)
The Southern Utica Core has become the most active region in the Appalachian Basin
Infrastructure Build-out
 Active build-out of midstream infrastructure to support
production in the Utica
 Take-away capacity out of the Appalachian Basin will
continue to improve
 Rice’s production is expected to be substantially all dry
gas and enables multiple take-away options

Bigfoot 9H Flowing Pressures – Why It’s a Big Deal
Wellhead pressure is the leading indicator of sustainability of initial flow rates. Utica pressure regime suggests our 1.5-2.0
MMcf/d initial flow rate could be sustainable for up to 14 months, approximately 1-8 months longer than our budgeted

 Offset operator results mirror Rice’s internal geologic model
– Core Features: Strong Point Pleasant porosity, impermeable Upper Utica cap, highly overpressured
– Essentially 100% of Rice acreage is located in a concentrated area with these characteristics
 Data from initial Rice-operated wells in Belmont County very encouraging:
 Porosity > 14% in our target interval. Strongest in the play.
• First three horizontal wells drilled had 100% of the lateral geosteered within a 4’ sweet spot
 Impermeable Upper Utica cap. Important for fracture containment during completions
 Severely overpressured
• Pressure Gradient > 0.8 psi/ft. Calculated bottomhole pressure > 8000 psi

Initial Observations from Utica Development
1. Drilling
– Utica is extremely brittle, highly charged with gas, and consistent across acreage.
– Very calm geologic environment leading to 100% lateral placement in 4’ sweet spot
2. Completions
– Formation is highly receptive to Rice’s aggressive frac design.
– First 100 stages pumped: 100% of sand placed in the ground with no issues
3. Production
– Smooth and predictable production profile. 100% uptime on first well through two months
4. Landowners + Community
– Very supportive. Maintaining open communication with planning

Update to 2014 Guidance
__________________________
Note: Pro forma for ASR & Greene County acquisitions.
Rice has updated 2014E guidance to better reflect management’s current outlook
 Total net production range has tightened due to greater visibility of pad turn-to-sales timing
 Drilling and completions capital of $570 mm reflecting timing adjustments to our drilling schedule
 Lease operating expense is trending lower as Marcellus shifts to “development mode”
 SG&A has increased as a result staying ahead of our prolific production growth and an increased build-out of our midstream group

Commodity Hedging Summary
 We employ financial instruments (primarily swaps and
costless collars) to mitigate commodity price risk
 Assures a base level of cash flow to reinvest in growth
 Typically target hedging 50% of forecasted production
for up to two years out
 Add incremental hedges opportunistically beyond two
years
 Utilize our bank group as counterparties to avoid cash
collateral and margin calls

2Q 2014 Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
__________________________
Note: Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We define Adjusted EBITDAX as net
income (loss) before interest expense or interest income; income taxes; write-down of abandoned leases; depreciation, depletion and amortization; amortization of deferred financing costs; equity in (income) loss of our joint ventures; derivative fair value (gain) loss,
excluding net cash receipts on settled derivative instruments; non-cash compensation expense; (gain) loss from sale of interest in gas properties; (gain) loss on acquisition; (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt; write-off of deferred financing costs; and exploration
expenses. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Gives pro forma effect to (i) our initial public offering and the completion of the corporate
reorganization in connection with our initial public offering and (ii) the consummation of our acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in our Marcellus joint venture from Alpha Natural Resources, Inc., each of which was completed on January 29, 2014, as if such
transactions had been completed on the first day of the period presented.
1. The adjustments for the derivative fair value (gains) losses and net cash receipts on settled commodity derivative instruments have the effect of adjusting net income (loss) for changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, which are recognized at the end
of each accounting period because we do not designate commodity derivative instruments as accounting hedges. This results in reflecting commodity derivative gains and losses within Adjusted EBITDAX on a cash basis during the period the derivatives
settled.
2. Represents gain incurred on the purchase of the remaining 50% interest in our Marcellus joint venture.

This presentation and the oral statements made in connection therewith may contain “forward looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, regarding Rice Energy’s strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and income/losses,
projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. These statements often include the words “could,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,”
“project” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based
on Rice Energy’s current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. Rice Energy assumes no
obligation to and does not intend to update any forward looking statements included herein. Rice Energy cautions you that these forward-looking statements are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties,
most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond their control, incident to the exploration for and development, production, gathering and sale of natural gas, natural gas liquids and oil.
These risks include, but are not limited to, commodity price volatility, inflation, lack of availability of drilling and production equipment and services, environmental risks, drilling and other operating risks,
regulatory changes, the uncertainty inherent in estimating natural gas reserves and in projecting future rates of production, cash flow and access to capital, the timing of development expenditures, and the
other risks described under “Risk Factors” in Rice Energy’s Form 10-K filed on March 21, 2014 and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, Rice Energy’s actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements.
This presentation has been prepared by Rice Energy and includes market data and other statistical information from sources believed by Rice Energy to be reliable, including independent industry
publications, government publications or other published independent sources. Some data are also based on Rice Energy’s good faith estimates, which are derived from its review of internal sources as
well as the independent sources described above. Although Rice Energy believes these sources are reliable, it has not independently verified the information and cannot guarantee its accuracy and
completeness.
Certain of Rice Energy's wells are named after superheroes and monster trucks, some of which may be trademarked. Despite their size and strength, Rice Energy's wells are in no manner affiliated with
such superheroes or monster trucks.
Initial production rates are subject to decline over time and should not be regarded as reflective of sustained production levels. In particular, production from horizontal drilling in shale oil and natural gas
resource plays and tight natural gas plays that are stimulated with extensive pressure fracturing are typically characterized by significant early declines in production rates.
NON-PROVEN OIL AND GAS RESERVES
The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves, which are reserve estimates that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty
to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions and certain probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC’s definition for such terms. We
may use certain broader terms such as EUR (estimated ultimate recovery of resources), and we may use other descriptions of volumes of potentially recoverable hydrocarbon resources throughout this
presentation that the SEC does not permit to be included in SEC filings. These broader classifications do not constitute reserves as defined by the SEC, and we do not attempt to distinguish these
classifications from probable or possible reserves as defined by SEC guidelines.
Our estimates of EURs have been prepared by our independent reserve engineers. These estimates are by their nature more speculative than estimates of proved, probable and possible reserves and
accordingly are subject to substantially greater risk of being actually realized, particularly in areas or zones where there has been limited or no drilling history. We include these estimates to demonstrate
what we believe to be the potential for future drilling and production by the company. Actual locations drilled and quantities that may be ultimately recovered from our properties will differ substantially. In
addition, we have made no commitment to drill all of the drilling locations which have been attributed to these quantities. Ultimate recoveries will be dependent upon numerous factors including actual
encountered geological conditions, the impact of future oil and gas pricing, exploration and development costs, and our future drilling decisions and budgets based upon our future evaluation of risk, returns
and the availability of capital and, in many areas, the outcome of negotiation of drilling arrangements with holders of adjacent or fractional interest leases. Estimates of resource potential and other figures
may change significantly as development of our properties provide additional data and therefore actual quantities that may ultimately be recovered will likely differ from these estimates.
Our forecast and expectations for future periods are dependent upon many assumptions, including estimates of production decline rates from existing wells, the undertaking and outcome of future drilling
activity and activity that may be affected by significant commodity price declines or drilling cost increases.

Determination of Identified Drilling Locations as of June 30, 2014 pro forma for ASR buy-in (closed 1/29/14) and Greene County acquisition (closed 8/1/14)
Our gross (net) identified drilling locations are those drilling locations identified by management based on the following criteria:
Drillable Locations – These are mapped locations that our Vice President of Exploration & Geology has deemed to have a high likelihood as being drilled
or are currently in development but have not yet commenced production. With respect to our Pennsylvania acreage, pro forma for the ASR buy-in and the
Greene County acquisition, we had 330 gross (301 net) pro forma drillable Marcellus locations and 134 gross (117 net) pro forma drillable Upper Devonian
locations. With respect to our Ohio acreage, we had 636 gross (191 net) drillable Utica locations, all of which are located within the contract areas covered
by our Development Agreement and AMI Agreement with Gulfport.
Estimated Locations – These remaining estimated locations are calculated by taking our total acreage, less acreage that is producing or included in
drillable locations, and dividing such amount by our expected well spacing to arrive at our unrisked estimated locations which is then multiplied by a risking
factor. For our existing Marcellus acreage position and acreage acquired through the ASR buy-in, we assume these Marcellus locations have 6,000 foot
laterals and 600 foot spacing between Marcellus wells which yields approximately 80 acre spacing. For the Greene County acquisition, we assume these
Marcellus locations have 7,000 foot laterals and 600 foot spacing between Marcellus wells which yields approximately 100 acre spacing. We assume these
Upper Devonian locations have 6,000 foot laterals and 1,000 foot spacing between Upper Devonian wells which yields approximately 140 acre spacing. We
assume Utica locations have 8,000 foot laterals and 600 foot spacing between Utica wells which yields approximately 110 acre spacing.
With respect to our Pennsylvania acreage, we multiply our unrisked estimated Marcellus and Upper Devonian locations by a risking factor of 50% to arrive
at total risked estimated locations. As a result, we had 233 gross (225 net) pro forma estimated risked Marcellus locations and 148 gross (144 net) pro
forma estimated risked Upper Devonian locations. With respect to our Ohio acreage, we multiply our unrisked estimated locations by a risking factor of
approximately 37% to arrive at total risked estimated locations. We then apply our assumed working interest for such location, calculated by applying the
impact of assumed unitization on the underlying working interest as well as, in the case of locations within the AMI with Gulfport, the applicable participating
interest. As a result, we had 139 gross (55 net) estimated risked Utica locations. Estimated locations include ununitized locations that have been risked
(50% in the Marcellus, 37% in the Utica) to take into account the risk of forming drilling units.
Risked Locations – Consist of Drillable Locations and Risked Estimated Locations. We assume 563 gross (526 net) risked Marcellus locations. We
assume 282 gross (261 net) risked Upper Devonian locations. We assume 775 gross (246 net) risked Utica locations.
Unrisked Locations – Consist of Drillable Locations and Unrisked Estimated Locations. We assume 797 gross (750 net) unrisked Marcellus locations. We
assume 430 gross (406 net) unrisked Upper Devonian locations. We assume 1,011 gross (339 net) unrisked Utica locations.

  • 35. 35 www.riceenergy.com 2Q 2014 Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation __________________________ Note: Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We define Adjusted EBITDAX as net income (loss) before interest expense or interest income; income taxes; write-down of abandoned leases; depreciation, depletion and amortization; amortization of deferred financing costs; equity in (income) loss of our joint ventures; derivative fair value (gain) loss, excluding net cash receipts on settled derivative instruments; non-cash compensation expense; (gain) loss from sale of interest in gas properties; (gain) loss on acquisition; (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt; write-off of deferred financing costs; and exploration expenses. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Gives pro forma effect to (i) our initial public offering and the completion of the corporate reorganization in connection with our initial public offering and (ii) the consummation of our acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in our Marcellus joint venture from Alpha Natural Resources, Inc., each of which was completed on January 29, 2014, as if such transactions had been completed on the first day of the period presented. 1. The adjustments for the derivative fair value (gains) losses and net cash receipts on settled commodity derivative instruments have the effect of adjusting net income (loss) for changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, which are recognized at the end of each accounting period because we do not designate commodity derivative instruments as accounting hedges.

  • 36. 36 www.riceenergy.com Cautionary Statements FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation and the oral statements made in connection therewith may contain “forward looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, regarding Rice Energy’s strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and income/losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. These statements often include the words “could,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on Rice Energy’s current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. Rice Energy assumes no obligation to and does not intend to update any forward looking statements included herein. Rice Energy cautions you that these forward-looking statements are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond their control, incident to the exploration for and development, production, gathering and sale of natural gas, natural gas liquids and oil. These risks include, but are not limited to, commodity price volatility, inflation, lack of availability of drilling and production equipment and services, environmental risks, drilling and other operating risks, regulatory changes, the uncertainty inherent in estimating natural gas reserves and in projecting future rates of production, cash flow and access to capital, the timing of development expenditures, and the other risks described under “Risk Factors” in Rice Energy’s Form 10-K filed on March 21, 2014 and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, Rice Energy’s actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. This presentation has been prepared by Rice Energy and includes market data and other statistical information from sources believed by Rice Energy to be reliable, including independent industry publications, government publications or other published independent sources. Some data are also based on Rice Energy’s good faith estimates, which are derived from its review of internal sources as well as the independent sources described above. Although Rice Energy believes these sources are reliable, it has not independently verified the information and cannot guarantee its accuracy and completeness. Certain of Rice Energy's wells are named after superheroes and monster trucks, some of which may be trademarked. Despite their size and strength, Rice Energy's wells are in no manner affiliated with such superheroes or monster trucks. Initial production rates are subject to decline over time and should not be regarded as reflective of sustained production levels. In particular, production from horizontal drilling in shale oil and natural gas resource plays and tight natural gas plays that are stimulated with extensive pressure fracturing are typically characterized by significant early declines in production rates. NON-PROVEN OIL AND GAS RESERVES The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves, which are reserve estimates that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions and certain probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC’s definition for such terms. We may use certain broader terms such as EUR (estimated ultimate recovery of resources), and we may use other descriptions of volumes of potentially recoverable hydrocarbon resources throughout this presentation that the SEC does not permit to be included in SEC filings. These broader classifications do not constitute reserves as defined by the SEC, and we do not attempt to distinguish these classifications from probable or possible reserves as defined by SEC guidelines. Our estimates of EURs have been prepared by our independent reserve engineers. These estimates are by their nature more speculative than estimates of proved, probable and possible reserves and accordingly are subject to substantially greater risk of being actually realized, particularly in areas or zones where there has been limited or no drilling history. We include these estimates to demonstrate what we believe to be the potential for future drilling and production by the company. Actual locations drilled and quantities that may be ultimately recovered from our properties will differ substantially. In addition, we have made no commitment to drill all of the drilling locations which have been attributed to these quantities. Ultimate recoveries will be dependent upon numerous factors including actual encountered geological conditions, the impact of future oil and gas pricing, exploration and development costs, and our future drilling decisions and budgets based upon our future evaluation of risk, returns and the availability of capital and, in many areas, the outcome of negotiation of drilling arrangements with holders of adjacent or fractional interest leases. Estimates of resource potential and other figures may change significantly as development of our properties provide additional data and therefore actual quantities that may ultimately be recovered will likely differ from these estimates. Our forecast and expectations for future periods are dependent upon many assumptions, including estimates of production decline rates from existing wells, the undertaking and outcome of future drilling activity and activity that may be affected by significant commodity price declines or drilling cost increases.
  • 37. 37 www.riceenergy.com Determination of Identified Drilling Locations as of June 30, 2014 pro forma for ASR buy-in (closed 1/29/14) and Greene County acquisition (closed 8/1/14) Our gross (net) identified drilling locations are those drilling locations identified by management based on the following criteria: Drillable Locations – These are mapped locations that our Vice President of Exploration & Geology has deemed to have a high likelihood as being drilled or are currently in development but have not yet commenced production. With respect to our Pennsylvania acreage, pro forma for the ASR buy-in and the Greene County acquisition, we had 330 gross (301 net) pro forma drillable Marcellus locations and 134 gross (117 net) pro forma drillable Upper Devonian locations. With respect to our Ohio acreage, we had 636 gross (191 net) drillable Utica locations, all of which are located within the contract areas covered by our Development Agreement and AMI Agreement with Gulfport. Estimated Locations – These remaining estimated locations are calculated by taking our total acreage, less acreage that is producing or included in drillable locations, and dividing such amount by our expected well spacing to arrive at our unrisked estimated locations which is then multiplied by a risking factor. For our existing Marcellus acreage position and acreage acquired through the ASR buy-in, we assume these Marcellus locations have 6,000 foot laterals and 600 foot spacing between Marcellus wells which yields approximately 80 acre spacing. For the Greene County acquisition, we assume these Marcellus locations have 7,000 foot laterals and 600 foot spacing between Marcellus wells which yields approximately 100 acre spacing. We assume these Upper Devonian locations have 6,000 foot laterals and 1,000 foot spacing between Upper Devonian wells which yields approximately 140 acre spacing. We assume Utica locations have 8,000 foot laterals and 600 foot spacing between Utica wells which yields approximately 110 acre spacing. With respect to our Pennsylvania acreage, we multiply our unrisked estimated Marcellus and Upper Devonian locations by a risking factor of 50% to arrive at total risked estimated locations. As a result, we had 233 gross (225 net) pro forma estimated risked Marcellus locations and 148 gross (144 net) pro forma estimated risked Upper Devonian locations. With respect to our Ohio acreage, we multiply our unrisked estimated locations by a risking factor of approximately 37% to arrive at total risked estimated locations. We then apply our assumed working interest for such location, calculated by applying the impact of assumed unitization on the underlying working interest as well as, in the case of locations within the AMI with Gulfport, the applicable participating interest. As a result, we had 139 gross (55 net) estimated risked Utica locations. Estimated locations include ununitized locations that have been risked (50% in the Marcellus, 37% in the Utica) to take into account the risk of forming drilling units. Risked Locations – Consist of Drillable Locations and Risked Estimated Locations. We assume 563 gross (526 net) risked Marcellus locations. We assume 282 gross (261 net) risked Upper Devonian locations. We assume 775 gross (246 net) risked Utica locations. Unrisked Locations – Consist of Drillable Locations and Unrisked Estimated Locations. We assume 797 gross (750 net) unrisked Marcellus locations. We assume 430 gross (406 net) unrisked Upper Devonian locations. We assume 1,011 gross (339 net) unrisked Utica locations. Additional Disclosures
