Technology Advancements- Beall Ranch Beall Ranch Locator Map Beall Ranch Eagle Ford Well Costs Beall Ranch Eagle Ford Offset – Cumulative to Date Beall Ranch Technical Improvements 26-28H 32-34H 20-22H Lonestar has drilled three 3-well pads in the last 24 months, implementing increasing levels of leading edge technologies, intended to improve recoveries and mitigate interference from offset well depletion. Geo-targeting- Using petrophysical & rock properties analysis obtained from pilot hole logs to refine its geo-target to a 22-foot target in an effort to improve recoveries Thru-bit Logging- Increasingly utilized to design non-geometric, engineered frac stages. Broadband Diverter- Pumping diverter mid-stage to fracture higher-stress rock with a goal of improving perforation efficiency while actually expanding stage spacing. Superior Production Performance Continues- #26H-#28H wells have cum’d 64,000 bbls/well through 390 days online (or 19,500 bbls / perforated foot),which is 43% better than the offsetting #32H-#34H wells. Through 150 days, newest generation wells are outperforming #26H-#28H by 14% and #32H-#34H by 62%.
South Gonzales Leasehold Update - Cyclone Cyclone Locator Map Cyclone Leasehold – June 30, 2016 Cyclone Area Summary Cyclone Leasehold – Today Harvey Johnson Cyclone Encouraged by the results of its initial 6 wells on its Harvey Johnson, Lonestar leased a total of 1,450 gross / 1,450 net acres in its Cyclone project area through June 30, 2016, Drilled and completed the Cyclone #9H and #10H wells with an average perforated interval of 6,685 feet, placed onstream on May 12, 2016. Lonestar drilled and completed the Cyclone #9H & #10H. Lonestar holds a 42% WI / 33% NRI in these wells. The two new wells were fracture stimulated with an average proppant concentration of 1,518 pounds per foot. Cyclone #9H tested 543 bopd and 239 Mcfgpd, or 598 BOEPD1 on an 18/64” choke and a 30-day production rate of 486 BOEPD. The Cyclone #10H tested 576 bopd and 239 Mcfgpd, or 631 BOEPD1 on an 18/64” choke and a 30-day production rate of 521 BOEPD. AFE’d for $5.2 million, wells were drilled and completed for $4.7 million. Lonestar has executed agreements to lease an additional 1,456 gross / 1,322 net acres which directly offsets the Cyclone #9H and #10H. Lonestar’s leasehold in its Cyclone project now totals 2,906 gross / 2,656 net acres, setting up 29 additional laterals with an average lateral length exceeding 7,000 feet. 1 well results are on a processed, three-stream basis Leased Top Leased Leased Top Leased Cyclone #10H Cyclone #9H Cyclone #10H Cyclone #9H

Non-GAAP Reconciliation Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted EBITDAX Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, exploration costs, non-recurring costs, (gain) loss on sales of oil and natural gas properties, impairment of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, rig standby expense, other income (expense) and unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments. Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX provides useful information to investors because it assists investors in the evaluation of the Company’s operating performance and comparison of the results of the Company’s operations from period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX to eliminate the impact of certain non-cash items or because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within its industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company’s computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for each of the periods indicated.
Glossary •“bbl” means barrel of oil. • bbls/d means the number of one stock tank barrel, or 42 US gallons liquid volume of oil or other liquid hydrocarbons per day. “Boe” means barrels of oil equivalent, with 6,000 cubic feet of natural gas being equivalent to one barrel of oil. •Boe/d means barrels of oil equivalent per day. “scf” means standard cubic feet. •“btu” means British thermal units. •“M” prefix means thousand. •“MM” prefix means million. •“B” prefix means billion. •“NGL” means Natural Gas Liquids– these products are stripped from the gas stream at 3rd party facilities remote to the field. •“TEV” means total enterprise value •“LTM” means last twelve months •“NTM” means next twelve months •“HBP” means held by production •“EPS” means earnings per share Note: BOE may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf : 1bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6 Mcf : 1 bbl, utilising a conversion ration of 6 Mcf : 1 bbl may be misleading if used in isolation.
