Forward‐Looking InformationCautionary Statement for the Purpose of the “Safe Harbor” Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
This presentation includes “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 included in this presentation other than statements of historical fact, including, but not limited to, forecasts or expectations regarding the Company’s business and statements or information concerning the Company’s future operations, performance, financial condition, production and reserves, schedules, plans, timing of development, rates of return, budgets, costs, business strategy, objectives, and cash flows, are forward‐looking statements. When used in this presentation, the words “could,” “may,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “budget,” “plan,” “continue,” “potential,” “guidance,” “strategy,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward‐looking statements, although not all forward‐looking statements contain such identifying words.
Forward‐looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and assumptions about future events and currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. Although the Company believes these assumptions and expectations are reasonable, they are inherently subject to numerous business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the Company’s control. No assurance can be given that such expectations will be correct or achieved or the assumptions are accurate. The risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, commodity price volatility; the geographic concentration of our operations; financial, market and economic volatility; the inability to access needed capital; the risks and potential liabilities inherent in crude oil and natural gas exploration, drilling and production and the availability of insurance to cover any losses resulting therefrom; difficulties in estimating proved reserves and other revenue‐based measures; declines in the values of our crude oil and natural gas properties resulting in impairment charges; our ability to replace proved reserves and sustain production; the availability or cost of equipment and oilfield services; leasehold terms expiring on undeveloped acreage before production can be established; our ability to project future production, achieve targeted results in drilling and well operations and predict the amount and timing of development expenditures; the availability and cost of transportation, processing and refining facilities; legislative and regulatory changes adversely affecting our industry and our business, including initiatives related to hydraulic fracturing; increased market and industry competition, including from alternative fuels and other energy sources; and the other risks described under Part I, Item 1A Risk Factors and elsewhere in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‐K for the year ended December 31, 2016, registration statements and other reports filed from time to time with the SEC, and other announcements the Company makes from time to time.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward‐looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which such statement is made. Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described in this presentation occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, the Company’s actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward‐looking statements. All forward‐looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Except as expressly stated above or otherwise required by applicable law, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly correct or update any forward‐looking statement whether as a result of new information, future events or circumstances after the date of this presentation, or otherwise.
Readers are cautioned that 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.
We use the term "EUR" or "estimated ultimate recovery" to describe potentially recoverable oil and natural gas hydrocarbon quantities. We include these estimates to demonstrate what we believe to be the potential for future drilling and production on our properties. These estimates are by their nature much more speculative than estimates of proved reserves and require substantial capital spending to implement recovery. Actual locations drilled and quantities that may be ultimately recovered from our properties will differ substantially. EUR data included herein remain subject to change as more well data is analyzed.

2017: Disciplined Growth Targeting 20%+ Increase in Production by Year End
$1.95 billion capital budget ($1.72 billion D&C)
• Targeting 250,000 to 260,000 Boepd 2017 exit rate• 20 rigs vs. 19 rigs in 2016 • Over 2X more operated completions than 2016• 7 Bakken stimulation crews on average during year
Oil‐weighted production growth
• 82% of D&C capex allocated to Bakken and STACK (75% oil)• ~148 Bakken gross operated wells with first production • STACK activity focused on density drilling
No new debt • Capital budget cash flow neutral at $55 WTI and $3.14 gas• Continued debt reduction from non‐strategic asset sales
Momentum carries into 2018
• Exit 2017 with approximately 72 Bakken stimulated wells waiting on first production
• Targeting 290,000 to 310,000 Boepd 2018 exit rate

Over‐pressured STACK becomes proven catalyst for growth • Adds up to 35% to CLR’s net unrisked resource potential• Delivering some of the best and most repeatable returns in the country • Full‐field development already underway in portion of the over‐pressured oil window
Reduced debt by over $600 million since peak in 2016 through non‐strategic assets sales
Enhanced completions improving well performance in all plays• SCOOP Woodford condensate: Boosting EURs by ~35% and early production rates up to 45%• SCOOP Woodford oil: Boosting EURs and early production rates by ~30% • Bakken: Larger completions delivering record results for CLR
Quality of assets increased proved reserves 4% YoY despite 15% decline in SEC oil prices• 1.27 billion Boe, up from 1.23 billion Boe at year‐end 2015
Began harvesting Bakken uncompleted well inventory • Over 100% cost forward ROR(1) inventory: 187 drilled‐wells in inventory; target EUR of 980 Mboe• Ramping up activity: Currently at 5 completion crews, increasing to 8 by mid‐May

1. Margin presented on this slide represents the Company’s average sales price for a period expressed in barrels of oil equivalent (Boe) less production expenses, production taxes, G&A expenses (exclusive of non‐cash equity compensation expenses), and interest expense, all expressed on a per‐Boe basis. Margin does not reflect all activities of the Company that give rise to cash inflows and outflows and specifically excludes income and costs associated with derivative settlements, service operations, exploration activities, asset dispositions, and various non‐operating activities. These items are excluded from the computation of Margin because they can vary significantly from period to period in a manner that does not correlate with changes in the Company’s production and sales volumes. Therefore, these items are not typically utilized by management on a per‐Boe basis in assessing the performance of the Company’s E&P operations from period to period. See “Continuing to Deliver Strong Margins” on slide 33 for additional details on the method for calculating margin. 2. See “Cash G&A Reconciliation to GAAP“ on slide 37 for a reconciliation of GAAP Total G&A per Boe to Cash G&A per Boe, which is a non‐GAAP measure3.

Continuing to Deliver Strong Margins(1)
We use a variety of financial and operational measures to assess our performance. Among these measures is EBITDAX. Wedefine EBITDAX as earnings (net income (loss)) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortizationand accretion, property impairments, exploration expenses, non‐cash gains and losses resulting from the requirements ofaccounting for derivatives, non‐cash equity compensation expense, and losses on extinguishment of debt. EBITDAX is not ameasure of net income or net cash provided by operating activities as determined by GAAP.
Management believes EBITDAX is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance andcompare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure.Further, we believe that EBITDAX is a widely followed measure of operating performance and may also be used by investorsto measure our ability to meet future debt service requirements, if any. We exclude the items listed above from net income(loss) and net cash provided by operating activities in arriving at EBITDAX because those amounts can vary substantiallyfrom company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capitalstructures and the method by which the assets were acquired.
EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) or net cash provided byoperating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of a company’s operating performance orliquidity. Certain items excluded from EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’sfinancial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciableassets, none of which are components of EBITDAX. Our computations of EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarlytitled measures of other companies.
See the following page for reconciliations of our net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities to EBITDAXfor the applicable periods.

ADJUSTED Earnings Reconciliation to GAAPOur presentation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share that exclude the effect of certain items are non‐GAAP financial
measures. Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share represent earnings and diluted earnings per share determined under U.S. GAAP without
regard to non‐cash gains and losses on derivative instruments, property impairments, gains and losses on asset sales and losses on extinguishment of
debt. Management believes these measures provide useful information to analysts and investors for analysis of our operating results. In addition,
management believes these measures are used by analysts and others in valuation, comparison and investment recommendations of companies in the
oil and gas industry to allow for analysis without regard to an entity’s specific derivative portfolio, impairment methodologies, and property dispositions.
Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for earnings or diluted earnings per share as
determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The following tables
reconcile earnings and diluted earnings per share as determined under U.S. GAAP to adjusted earnings and adjusted diluted earnings per share for the
periods presented.

Cash G&A Reconciliation to GAAP

Our presentation of cash general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses per Boe is a non‐GAAP measure. We define cash G&A per Boe as total G&A determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP less non‐cash equity compensation expenses and corporate relocation expenses, expressed on a per‐Boe basis. We report and provide guidance on cash G&A per Boe because we believe this measure is commonly used by management, analysts and investors as an indicator of cost management and operating efficiency on a comparable basis from period to period. In addition, management believes cash G&A per Boe is used by analystsand others in valuation, comparison and investment recommendations of companies in the oil and gas industry to allow for analysis of G&A spend without regard to stock‐based compensation programs which can vary substantially from company to company. Cash G&A per Boe should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, total G&A per Boe as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table reconciles total G&A per Boe as determined under U.S. GAAP to cash G&A per Boe for the periods presented.
