NOTES TO INVESTORS
Cautionary Statement This Financial and Operational Reporting Package (Package) includes summarized financial and other information about EP Energy Corporation ("EP Energy" or the "Company"). The information in this Package is intended to provide highlights and should not be used as a substitute for financial information in EP Energy's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Readers should refer to those filings. In addition, the glossary contains certain definitions of non-GAAP measures used in this Package and in other presentations we provide. These non-GAAP definitions may not be the same as definitions used by other companies. This Package may contain information that is based on estimates. The Company has made every reasonable effort to ensure that the information and assumptions on which these estimates are based are current, reasonable and complete. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the estimates in this Package are changes in unaudited and/or unreviewed financial information and the effects of any changes in accounting rules and guidance, as well as other factors discussed in EP Energy's filings with the SEC. The financial data and statistics in this Package for the Fourth Quarter 2016 reflect the operating results of EP Energy through December 31, 2016. Independent auditors have not audited this Package. The Company assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise any information contained herein as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Non·GAAP Financial Measures The SEC's Regulation G applies to any public disclosure or release of material information that includes a non- GAAP financial measure. In this Package, these measures include EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit, Adjusted Earnings Per Share (EPS), Adjusted Cash Operating Costs, Discretionary Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow, and Net Debt. In the event of such a disclosure or release, Regulation G requires (i) the presentation of the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP and (ii) a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure presented and the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The required presentations and reconciliations are included in the body of this Package. EP Energy believes that the non-GAAP financial measures described in the glossary are useful to investors because these measurements are used by many companies in the industry as a measure of operating and financial performance and are commonly employed by financial analysts and others to evaluate the operating and financial performance of the Company and to compare it with the performance of other companies within the industry. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be used as a substitute for net income (loss), earnings (loss) per share, operating income (loss), operating or investing cash flows, debt, or other measures of financial performance, liquidity or financial position, presented in accordance with GAAP. Presentation In May 2016, we completed the sale of all our assets located in the Haynesville and Bossier shales. The financial information presented in this package includes the Haynesville/Bossier financial results in all periods. We have provided the Appendix section of this package (pages 14-16) giving pro-forma effect on various metrics to the divestiture of these assets.

Oil and natural gas prices on physical sales reflect operating revenues for oil and natural gas reduced by oil and natural gas purchases associated with managing our physical sales. Prices per unit are calculated using total financial derivative cash settlements and cash premiums. 4Q 2015 includes approximately $4.3 billion of non-cash impairment charges of our proved and unproved properties. 3Q, 4Q and Year-to-Date 2016 include an adjustment of $2.58 per Boe, $1.29 per Boe and $0.89 per Boe, respectively, due to an out-of-period non-cash depreciation, depletion and amortization charge.

GLOSSARY This contains a glossary of terms used in this Package as well as those used in other investor presentations and press releases. They are for non-GAAP reference only and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used at other companies. NON·GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit EBITDAX is defined as net income (loss) plus interest and debt expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization and exploration expense. Adjusted EBITDAX is defined as EBITDAX, adjusted as applicable in the relevant period for the net change in the fair value of derivatives (mark-to-market effects of financial derivatives, net of cash settlements and cash premiums related to these derivatives), the non-cash portion of compensation expense (which represents non-cash compensation expense under our long-term incentive programs adjusted for cash payments made under these plans), transition, restructuring and other costs that affect comparability, gains and losses on extinguishment of debt, gains and/or losses on sales of assets and impairment charges. Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit is calculated using Adjusted EBITDAX divided by equivalent volumes. EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit are used by management and we believe provide investors with additional information (i) to evaluate our ability to service debt adjusting for items required or permitted in calculating covenant compliance under our debt agreements, (ii) to provide an important supplemental indicator of the operational performance of our business without regard to financing methods and capital structure, (iii) for evaluating our performance relative to our peers, (iv) to measure our liquidity (before cash capital requirements and working capital needs) and (v) to provide supplemental information about certain material non-cash and/or other items that may not continue at the same level in the future. EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to net income (loss), operating income (loss), operating cash flows or other measures of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. For example, our presentation of EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry. Furthermore, our presentation of EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by the items noted above or what we believe to be other unusual items, or that in the future we may not incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. The information above also applies to Pro-Forma EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX per Unit included in the Appendix of this package. Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses Adjusted general and administrative expenses are defined as general and administrative expenses excluding the non-cash portion of compensation expense which represents compensation expense under our long-term incentive programs adjusted for cash payments under these plans. This non-GAAP measure is used by management and investors as additional information as noted above and is subject to the same limitations of analytical tools and should not be considered as a GAAP substitute as noted above. For 2017, we expect GAAP general and administrative expenses between approximately $3.95 per Boe - $4.35 per Boe which includes approximately $0.80 per Boe - $0.95 per Boe of non-cash compensation expense. Adjusted EPS Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted earnings per share adjusted for certain items that the Company considers to be significant to understanding our underlying performance for a given period. Adjusted EPS is useful in analyzing the Company's ongoing earnings potential and understanding certain significant items impacting the comparability of the Company's results. Adjusted EPS is calculated as net income (loss) per common share adjusted for the impact of financial derivatives (mark-to-market effects of financial derivatives, net of cash settlements and cash premiums related to these derivatives), gains and losses on extinguishment of debt, gains and losses on sales of assets, impairment charges, other costs that affect comparability, including transition and restructuring charges and changes in the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. We believe Adjusted EPS is a valuable measure of operating performance; however, this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and is subject to several of the same limitations as analytical tools as noted in the paragraphs above. EP Energy Corporation NYSE: EPE

Adjusted Cash Operating Costs Adjusted cash operating costs is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as total operating expenses, excluding depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, exploration expense, impairment charges, gains and/or losses on sales of assets, the non-cash portion of compensation expense (which represents compensation expense under our long-term incentive programs adjusted for cash payments made under these plans) and transition, restructuring and other costs that affect comparability. We use this measure to describe the costs required to directly or indirectly operate our existing assets and produce and sell our oil and natural gas, including the costs associated with the delivery and purchases and sales of produced commodities. Accordingly, we exclude depreciation, depletion, and amortization and impairment charges as such costs are non-cash in nature. We exclude exploration expense from our measure as it is substantially non-cash in nature and is not related to the costs to operate our existing assets. Similarly, gains and losses on the sale of assets are excluded as they are unrelated to the operation of our assets. We exclude the non-cash portion of compensation expense as well as transition, restructuring and other costs that affect comparability, as we believe such adjustments allow investors to evaluate our costs against others in our industry and these items can vary across companies due to different ownership structures, compensation objectives or the occurrence of transactions. Adjusted cash operating costs is used by management as a performance measure, and we believe provides investors valuable information related to our operating performance and our operating efficiency relative to other industry participants and comparatively over time across our historical results. However, this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, are subject to limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to operating expenses, operating cash flows or other measures of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. The information above also applies to Pro-Forma adjusted cash operating costs included in the Appendix of this package. Discretionary Cash Flow Discretionary Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure calculated using net income (loss) adjusted for certain items including depreciation, depletion and amortization, the impact of financial derivatives (mark-to-market effects of financial derivatives, net of cash settlements and cash premiums paid or received related to these derivatives), transition, restructuring and other costs, deferred income taxes and any related valuation allowance, non-cash exploration expense, gains and losses on extinguishment of debt, gains and losses on sales of assets, impairment charges and other non-cash income items. We have presented Discretionary Cash Flow because management believes that it provides useful additional information to investors for analysis of the Company's ability to internally generate funds for exploration, development and acquisitions as well as adjusting net income (loss) for unusual items to allow for a more consistent comparison from period to period. In addition, the Company believes that this measure is widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison and investment recommendations of companies in the oil and gas exploration and production industry. This measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and is subject to several of the same limitations as analytical tools as noted in the paragraphs above. Free Cash Flow Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure defined as net cash provided by operating activities less cash paid for capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow is used by management and we believe provides investors with useful information for analysis of the company’s ability to internally fund capital expenditures and to service or incur additional debt. This measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and is subject to several of the same limitations as analytical tools as noted in the paragraphs above. Net Debt Net Debt is a non-GAAP measure defined as long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2016, the company's net debt was approximately $3.8 billion (total debt of approximately $3,856 million less cash and cash equivalents of approximately $20 million). At December 31, 2015, the company's net debt was approximately $4.8 billion (total debt of approximately $4,869 million less cash and cash equivalents of approximately $26 million). We believe Net Debt provides useful information to investors for analysis of the Company’s financial position and/or liquidity; however, this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and is subject to several of the same limitations as analytical tools as noted in the paragraphs above. Net Debt should not

be considered in isolation as a substitute to long-term debt as reported under U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to other measures of financial position or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.

NOTES TO INVESTORS
Cautionary Statement This Financial and Operational Reporting Package (Package) includes summarized financial and other information about EP Energy Corporation ("EP Energy" or the "Company"). The information in this Package is intended to provide highlights and should not be used as a substitute for financial information in EP Energy's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Readers should refer to those filings. In addition, the glossary contains certain definitions of non-GAAP measures used in this Package and in other presentations we provide. These non-GAAP definitions may not be the same as definitions used by other companies. This Package may contain information that is based on estimates. The Company has made every reasonable effort to ensure that the information and assumptions on which these estimates are based are current, reasonable and complete. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the estimates in this Package are changes in unaudited and/or unreviewed financial information and the effects of any changes in accounting rules and guidance, as well as other factors discussed in EP Energy's filings with the SEC. The financial data and statistics in this Package for the Fourth Quarter 2016 reflect the operating results of EP Energy through December 31, 2016. Independent auditors have not audited this Package. The Company assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise any information contained herein as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Non·GAAP Financial Measures The SEC's Regulation G applies to any public disclosure or release of material information that includes a non- GAAP financial measure. In this Package, these measures include EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit, Adjusted Earnings Per Share (EPS), Adjusted Cash Operating Costs, Discretionary Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow, and Net Debt. In the event of such a disclosure or release, Regulation G requires (i) the presentation of the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP and (ii) a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure presented and the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The required presentations and reconciliations are included in the body of this Package. EP Energy believes that the non-GAAP financial measures described in the glossary are useful to investors because these measurements are used by many companies in the industry as a measure of operating and financial performance and are commonly employed by financial analysts and others to evaluate the operating and financial performance of the Company and to compare it with the performance of other companies within the industry. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be used as a substitute for net income (loss), earnings (loss) per share, operating income (loss), operating or investing cash flows, debt, or other measures of financial performance, liquidity or financial position, presented in accordance with GAAP. Presentation In May 2016, we completed the sale of all our assets located in the Haynesville and Bossier shales. The financial information presented in this package includes the Haynesville/Bossier financial results in all periods. We have provided the Appendix section of this package (pages 14-16) giving pro-forma effect on various metrics to the divestiture of these assets.

Oil and natural gas prices on physical sales reflect operating revenues for oil and natural gas reduced by oil and natural gas purchases associated with managing our physical sales. Prices per unit are calculated using total financial derivative cash settlements and cash premiums. 4Q 2015 includes approximately $4.3 billion of non-cash impairment charges of our proved and unproved properties. 3Q, 4Q and Year-to-Date 2016 include an adjustment of $2.58 per Boe, $1.29 per Boe and $0.89 per Boe, respectively, due to an out-of-period non-cash depreciation, depletion and amortization charge.

Prices presented are per Bbl of oil, per MMBtu of natural gas and per Gal for ethane. If market prices settle at or below $46.24 in 2017, we will receive a "locked in" cash settlement of the market price plus $14.38 per Bbl. If market prices settle at or below $50.00 in 2018, we will receive a “locked-in” cash settlement of the market price plus $10.00 per Bbl. EP Energy receives Brent plus the basis spread listed and pays LLS. These positions listed do not include Brent vs. LLS basis swaps which offset our 3.7 MBbls LLS vs. Brent with an average of $(0.46) per barrel of oil. EP Energy receives Cushing plus the basis spread listed and pays Midland.

GLOSSARY This contains a glossary of terms used in this Package as well as those used in other investor presentations and press releases. They are for non-GAAP reference only and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used at other companies. NON·GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit EBITDAX is defined as net income (loss) plus interest and debt expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization and exploration expense. Adjusted EBITDAX is defined as EBITDAX, adjusted as applicable in the relevant period for the net change in the fair value of derivatives (mark-to-market effects of financial derivatives, net of cash settlements and cash premiums related to these derivatives), the non-cash portion of compensation expense (which represents non-cash compensation expense under our long-term incentive programs adjusted for cash payments made under these plans), transition, restructuring and other costs that affect comparability, gains and losses on extinguishment of debt, gains and/or losses on sales of assets and impairment charges. Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit is calculated using Adjusted EBITDAX divided by equivalent volumes. EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit are used by management and we believe provide investors with additional information (i) to evaluate our ability to service debt adjusting for items required or permitted in calculating covenant compliance under our debt agreements, (ii) to provide an important supplemental indicator of the operational performance of our business without regard to financing methods and capital structure, (iii) for evaluating our performance relative to our peers, (iv) to measure our liquidity (before cash capital requirements and working capital needs) and (v) to provide supplemental information about certain material non-cash and/or other items that may not continue at the same level in the future. EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to net income (loss), operating income (loss), operating cash flows or other measures of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. For example, our presentation of EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry. Furthermore, our presentation of EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX Per Unit should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by the items noted above or what we believe to be other unusual items, or that in the future we may not incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. The information above also applies to Pro-Forma EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted EBITDAX per Unit included in the Appendix of this package. Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses Adjusted general and administrative expenses are defined as general and administrative expenses excluding the non-cash portion of compensation expense which represents compensation expense under our long-term incentive programs adjusted for cash payments under these plans. This non-GAAP measure is used by management and investors as additional information as noted above and is subject to the same limitations of analytical tools and should not be considered as a GAAP substitute as noted above. For 2017, we expect GAAP general and administrative expenses between approximately $3.95 per Boe - $4.35 per Boe which includes approximately $0.80 per Boe - $0.95 per Boe of non-cash compensation expense. Adjusted EPS Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted earnings per share adjusted for certain items that the Company considers to be significant to understanding our underlying performance for a given period. Adjusted EPS is useful in analyzing the Company's ongoing earnings potential and understanding certain significant items impacting the comparability of the Company's results. Adjusted EPS is calculated as net income (loss) per common share adjusted for the impact of financial derivatives (mark-to-market effects of financial derivatives, net of cash settlements and cash premiums related to these derivatives), gains and losses on extinguishment of debt, gains and losses on sales of assets, impairment charges, other costs that affect comparability, including transition and restructuring charges and changes in the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. We believe Adjusted EPS is a valuable measure of operating performance; however, this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and is subject to several of the same limitations as analytical tools as noted in the paragraphs above.

Adjusted Cash Operating Costs Adjusted cash operating costs is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as total operating expenses, excluding depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, exploration expense, impairment charges, gains and/or losses on sales of assets, the non-cash portion of compensation expense (which represents compensation expense under our long-term incentive programs adjusted for cash payments made under these plans) and transition, restructuring and other costs that affect comparability. We use this measure to describe the costs required to directly or indirectly operate our existing assets and produce and sell our oil and natural gas, including the costs associated with the delivery and purchases and sales of produced commodities. Accordingly, we exclude depreciation, depletion, and amortization and impairment charges as such costs are non-cash in nature. We exclude exploration expense from our measure as it is substantially non-cash in nature and is not related to the costs to operate our existing assets. Similarly, gains and losses on the sale of assets are excluded as they are unrelated to the operation of our assets. We exclude the non-cash portion of compensation expense as well as transition, restructuring and other costs that affect comparability, as we believe such adjustments allow investors to evaluate our costs against others in our industry and these items can vary across companies due to different ownership structures, compensation objectives or the occurrence of transactions. Adjusted cash operating costs is used by management as a performance measure, and we believe provides investors valuable information related to our operating performance and our operating efficiency relative to other industry participants and comparatively over time across our historical results. However, this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, are subject to limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to operating expenses, operating cash flows or other measures of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. The information above also applies to Pro-Forma adjusted cash operating costs included in the Appendix of this package. Discretionary Cash Flow Discretionary Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure calculated using net income (loss) adjusted for certain items including depreciation, depletion and amortization, the impact of financial derivatives (mark-to-market effects of financial derivatives, net of cash settlements and cash premiums paid or received related to these derivatives), transition, restructuring and other costs, deferred income taxes and any related valuation allowance, non-cash exploration expense, gains and losses on extinguishment of debt, gains and losses on sales of assets, impairment charges and other non-cash income items. We have presented Discretionary Cash Flow because management believes that it provides useful additional information to investors for analysis of the Company's ability to internally generate funds for exploration, development and acquisitions as well as adjusting net income (loss) for unusual items to allow for a more consistent comparison from period to period. In addition, the Company believes that this measure is widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison and investment recommendations of companies in the oil and gas exploration and production industry. This measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and is subject to several of the same limitations as analytical tools as noted in the paragraphs above. Free Cash Flow Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure defined as net cash provided by operating activities less cash paid for capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow is used by management and we believe provides investors with useful information for analysis of the company’s ability to internally fund capital expenditures and to service or incur additional debt. This measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and is subject to several of the same limitations as analytical tools as noted in the paragraphs above. Net Debt Net Debt is a non-GAAP measure defined as long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2016, the company's net debt was approximately $3.8 billion (total debt of approximately $3,856 million less cash and cash equivalents of approximately $20 million). At December 31, 2015, the company's net debt was approximately $4.8 billion (total debt of approximately $4,869 million less cash and cash equivalents of approximately $26 million). We believe Net Debt provides useful information to investors for analysis of the Company’s financial position and/or liquidity; however, this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and is subject to several of the same limitations as analytical tools as noted in the paragraphs above. Net Debt should not
