Forward Looking Statements and Presentation of Information

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this presentation that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section

21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For example, we make statements about significant potential opportunities for our business; future earnings; resource

potential; cash flow and liquidity; capital expenditures; reserve and production growth; potential drilling locations; plans for our operations, including drilling, fracture stimulation

activities, and the completion of wells; and potential markets for our oil, NGLs, and gas, among other things, that are forward looking and anticipatory in nature. These statements are

based on management’s experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, and anticipated future developments, as well as other factors believed to be appropriate. We

believe these statements and the assumptions and estimates contained in this presentation are reasonable based on information that is currently available to us. However, management's

assumptions and the company's future performance are subject to a wide range of business risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, and we cannot assure that the company can

or will meet the goals, expectations, and projections included in this presentation. Any number of factors could cause our actual results to be materially different from those expressed or

implied in our forward looking statements, including (without limitation): economic conditions in the United States and globally; domestic and global demand for oil and natural gas;

volatility in oil, gas, and natural gas liquids pricing; new or changing government regulations, including those relating to environmental matters, permitting, or other aspects of our

operations; the geologic quality of the company’s properties with regard to, among other things, the existence of hydrocarbons in economic quantities; uncertainties inherent in the

estimates of our oil and natural gas reserves; our ability to increase oil and natural gas production and income through exploration and development; drilling and operating risks; the

success of our drilling techniques in both conventional and unconventional reservoirs; the success of the secondary and tertiary recovery methods we utilize or plan to employ in the

future; the number of potential well locations to be drilled, the cost to drill them, and the time frame within which they will be drilled; the ability of contractors to timely and adequately

perform their drilling, construction, well stimulation, completion and production services; the availability of equipment, such as drilling rigs, and infrastructure, such as transportation

pipelines; the effects of adverse weather or other natural disasters on our operations; competition in the oil and gas industry in general, and specifically in our areas of operations;

changes in the company’s drilling plans and related budgets; the success of prospect development and property acquisition; the success of our business and financial strategies, and

hedging strategies; conditions in the domestic and global capital and credit markets and their effect on us; the adequacy and availability of capital resources, credit, and liquidity

including (without limitation) access to additional borrowing capacity; and uncertainties related to the legal and regulatory environment for our industry, and our own legal proceedings

and their outcome.

Further information on the risks and uncertainties that may effect our business is available in the company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We strongly

encourage you to review those filings. Rex Energy does not assume or undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new

information, future events, or otherwise.

Presentation of Information

The estimates of reserves in this presentation are based on a reserve report of our independent external reserve engineers as of December 31, 2014. We believe the data we prepared and

supplied to our external reservoir engineers in connection with their preparation of the 12/31/14 reserve report, and the assumptions, forecasts, and estimates contained therein, are

reasonable, however, we cannot assure that they will prove to have been correct. Estimates of reserves can be affected by inaccurate assumptions or by known or unknown risks and

uncertainties. Please see slide 3 for additional information about our estimates of reserves.

In this presentation, references to Rex Energy, Rex, REXX, the Company, we, our and us refer to Rex Energy Corporation and its subsidiaries. Unless otherwise noted, all references to

acreage holdings are as of December 31, 2014 and are rounded to the nearest hundred. All financial information excludes discontinued operations unless otherwise noted.

All estimates of internal rate of return (IRR) are before tax.

Forward Looking Statements and Presentation of Information

Hydrocarbon Volumes

The SEC permits publicly-reporting oil and gas companies to disclose “proved reserves” in their filings with the SEC. “Proved reserves” are 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. SEC rules also permit the

disclosure of “probable” and possible” reserves. Rex Energy discloses proved reserves but does not disclose probable or possible reserves. We may use certain broader terms such as

“resource potential,” “EUR” (estimated ultimate recovery of resources, defined below) and other descriptions of volumes of potentially recoverable hydrocarbons throughout this

presentation. 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. In addition, we are prohibited from disclosing hydrocarbon quantities that do not constitute reserves in documents filed with the SEC.

The company defines EUR as the cumulative oil and gas production expected to be economically recovered from a reservoir or individual well from initial production until the end of its

useful life. Our estimates of EURs and resource potential have been prepared internally by our engineers and management without review by independent 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. We include

these estimates to demonstrate what we believe to be the potential for future drilling and production by the company. 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 resource plays provide additional data and therefore actual quantities that may

ultimately be recovered will likely differ materially from these estimates.

Potential Drilling Locations

Our estimates of potential drilling locations are prepared internally by our engineers and management and are based upon a number of assumptions inherent in the estimate process.

Management, with the assistance of engineers and other professionals, as necessary, conducts a topographical analysis of our unproved prospective acreage to identify potential well pad

locations using operationally approved designs and considering several factors, which may include but are not limited to access roads, terrain, well azimuths, and well pad sizes. For our

operations in Pennsylvania, we then calculate the number of horizontal well bores for which the company appears to control sufficient acreage to drill the lateral wells from each

potential well pad location to arrive at an estimated number of net potential drilling locations. For our operations in Ohio, we calculate the number of horizontal well bores that may be

drilled from the potential well pad and multiply this by the company’s net working interest percentage of the proposed unit to arrive at an estimated number of net potential drilling

locations. In both cases, we then divide the unproved prospective acreage by the number of net potential drilling locations to arrive at an average well spacing. Management uses these

estimates to, among other things, evaluate our acreage holdings and to formulate plans for drilling. Any number of factors could cause the number of wells we actually drill to vary

significantly from these estimates, including: the availability of capital, drilling and production costs, commodity prices, availability of drilling services and equipment, lease expirations,

regulatory approvals and other factors.
