UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On December 20, 2012, Chesapeake Midstream Development, L.L.C., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Chesapeake Energy Corporation (the “Company”), closed the sale of 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Chesapeake Midstream Operating, L.L.C. (“CMO”) to Access Midstream Partners, L.P. (“ACMP”) for proceeds of $2.16 billion in cash, subject to post-closing adjustments. CMO, together with its subsidiaries, owns certain midstream gas gathering, processing and related assets in the Eagle Ford, Utica, Niobrara, Haynesville and Marcellus shale plays. We refer to this transaction as the “CMO Sale.”
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet has been prepared as if the CMO Sale occurred on September 30, 2012. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and year ended December 31, 2011 have been prepared as if the CMO Sale occurred on January 1, 2011.
The Company’s historical financial statements reflect the effects of assets owned by CMO that were sold prior to the CMO Sale, including amounts related to CMO’s investment in ACMP that was sold in June 2012. The accompanying financial information required by the CMO Sale adjusts for these transactions in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations as the assets were owned by CMO at the time of their disposal.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is based on financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require the use of estimates that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information does not purport to represent what the actual results of operations would have been had the transactions occurred on the respective dates assumed, nor is it necessarily indicative of the Company’s future operating results. The pro forma adjustments in the accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information reflect estimates as well as assumptions. The Company’s management believes these estimates and assumptions are reasonable, but actual results could differ from estimates and assumptions may prove to be incorrect. In addition, the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information reflects preliminary accounting treatment for the various agreements executed in connection with the CMO Sale. These agreements relate to ongoing business arrangements between the Company and ACMP after the CMO Sale. Final accounting treatment will be reflected on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2012.

(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012 and unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 are derived from and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2012. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 is derived from and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
2. Pro Forma Adjustments and Assumptions
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements give pro forma effect to the following items:
| (a) | Adjustments reflect $2.16 billion of cash consideration. Of the $2.16 billion net cash proceeds received, approximately $1.785 billion was used to repay the principal amount outstanding under the Company’s corporate revolving bank credit facility, the amount outstanding as of September 30, 2012. The actual amount repaid upon receipt of funds was $2.16 billion. |
| (b) | Elimination of the assets, liabilities and equity sold as part of the CMO Sale as of September 30, 2012. |
| (c) | Adjustments reflect an estimated charge of $23 million for one-time termination benefits to be paid to employees transferring to ACMP as part of the CMO Sale. Of the $23 million, approximately $14 million relates to the vesting of stock-based compensation awards and approximately $9 million relates to cash benefit payments. The adjustments on the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet include a $9 million liability related to the cash benefit payments, a $9 million deferred tax benefit related to the $23 million of one time termination costs, a $14 million increase to additional paid-in capital related to the vesting of stock-based compensation awards and an offsetting decrease of $14 million to retained earnings. |
As these are nonrecurring one-time termination benefits, the pro forma adjustments on the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations do not include these adjustments.
| (d) | Adjustments reflect the gain of $300 million, net of tax of $192 million, on the CMO Sale based on the net book value of the assets, liabilities and equity sold as of September 30, 2012. This gain does not reflect capital expenditures made between the effective date of October 1, 2012, and the closing date on which the purchase price of $2.16 billion was calculated. The purchase price of $2.16 billion assumes estimated capital expenditures for the period between the effective date and closing date to be approximately $193 million. Including these capital expenditures, the gain is expected to be lowered to approximately $182 million, net of tax of $117 million. |
| (e) | Adjustment reflects gathering expenses that would have been incurred by the Company had CMO been sold on January 1, 2011. |
| (f) | Concurrent with the closing of the CMO Sale, the Company entered into new gathering agreements effective July 1, 2012, resulting in increased revenue deductions relative to prior contractual arrangements. Gathering and transportation costs are accounted for as deductions to natural gas, oil and NGL revenues. |
| (g) | Reduction of third-party gathering revenues and expenses as a result of the CMO Sale. |
| (h) | Reduction of general and administrative expenses as a result of the CMO Sale. |
| (i) | Reduction of depreciation and amortization expense as a result of the CMO Sale. |
| (j) | Elimination of other expenses and gains (losses) on the sales and impairments of fixed assets as a result of the CMO Sale. These assets were held by CMO at the time of their disposal and therefore have been included in the pro forma adjustments. |

| (k) | Reduction of interest expense associated with the midstream revolving bank credit facility that was used exclusively for midstream operations until it was fully repaid and terminated in June 2012. |
| (l) | Elimination of net earnings on CMO’s investments including its investment in ACMP that was sold in June 2012. |
| (m) | Elimination of the gain on the sale of CMO’s investment in ACMP that was sold to funds affiliated with Global Infrastructure Partners in June 2012. |
| (n) | Income tax expense (benefit) based on the Company’s historical statutory tax rate applied to the cumulative effect of changes referenced within the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations. |
