All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “budget,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “initial,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this presentation relate to, among other things, our business and prospects, future costs, financial results, liquidity and financing, regulatory and permitting developments and future demand and supply affecting LNG and general energy markets. Our forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors that we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. These statements are subject to numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to be materially different from any future results or performance expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include those described in the “Risk Factors” section of Exhibit 99.1 to our Current Report on Form8-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 15, 2017 and other filings with the SEC, which are incorporated by reference in this presentation. Many of the forward-looking statements in this presentation relate to events or developments anticipated to occur numerous years in the future, which increases the likelihood that actual results will differ materially from those indicated in such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements made in or in connection with this presentation speak only as of the date hereof. Although we may from time to time voluntarily update our prior forward-looking statements, we disclaim any commitment to do so except as required by securities laws. This presentation contains information about projected EBITDA of Tellurian. EBITDA is not a financial measure determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), should not be viewed as a substitute for any financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. It would not be possible without unreasonable efforts to reconcile the projected GAAP information presented herein to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Similarly, projected future cash flows as set forth herein may differ from cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP.

DWLNG vs. traditional LNG plant – design
DWLNG layout: 5.2 mtpa Traditional layout: 4.5 mtpa
Redundancy necessary: if 1
Larger footprint: 3 cold boxes need compressor is out of service, more land, more pipe
Gaspre-treatment facility entire circuit is affected
Redundancybuilt-in: if 1 compressor is Single treatment out of service, refrigerant -only that loop (x4): pre requires less circuit is affected land, less pipe Gas
GE LM2500 (x6): smaller turbine Cold boxes (x3): 3 cold boxes, one GE LM6000 PF+ (x4): cheapest means you need 6 turbines, 3 for each refrigerant gas loop Chart cold boxes (x4): IPSMR dollar per installed horsepower = circuits, to produce 4.5 mtpa technology uses single mixed more LNG production per acre refrigerant; design scaled up frommid-scale design, rather than down from top

The world needs LNG – construction needs to start today
New FIDs are LNG projects under Assuming no new FIDs are necessary beginning construction expected to sanctioned soon, the global LNG 2018 to keep LNG come online next decade market will return to deficit by market balanced just as market enters 2022+ 2021+ balance
