  1. Investor Presentation August 2020

  2. Key Investment Highlights Premier gathering, transmission and water infrastructure positioned to benefit from core development • Leading footprint in the in the Marcellus / Utica Shales Appalachian Basin One of the largest natural gas gatherers in the United States • Greater than 70% of revenue forecasted from firm / MVC contracts once MVP is placed in-service (1) • Stable cash flows backed by 15-year MVC gathering contract with EQT • long-term contracts 14-year weighted average firm transmission & storage contract life (2) • Significant organic growth MVP project, together with the Hammerhead and Equitrans Expansion projects, expected to add • projects support long-term approximately $320 MM of incremental annual adjusted EBITDA once MVP is in-service (3) growth Intend to utilize excess retained free cash flow to reduce debt; targeting a <4.0x leverage ratio (3) • Disciplined capital structure Ample liquidity available through EQM’s $3.0 B revolver • Single public C-Corp • Total transformation reshaped Commercial alignment with EQT enables optimized drilling plans and creates significant midstream • capital efficiencies ETRN Dividend and capital allocation policy strengthens balance sheet • (1) Revenue projections do not include revenue contributions from MVP or MVP Southgate, which are accounted for as equity investments. (2) Statistics as of June 30, 2020. (3) See slide 33 for important information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted EBITDA and retained free cash flow. See slide 32 for important information regarding forward-looking statements. 2 Leverage ratio is ETRN consolidated debt / (adjusted EBITDA + deferred revenue).

  3. Accelerated Total Transformation Overview 3

  4. Accelerated Total Transformation Four Actions Reshaped E-Train – Announced February 27, 2020 Purchased and Retired ETRN Acquired Agreements with Dividend and Capital 25.3 MM ETRN Shares (2) EQT EQM Allocation Policy • Transaction closed on • 15-year gas gathering • Unique opportunity • $0.60 per ETRN June 17, 2020 contract with 3 Bcf/d to buy back ETRN common share annual MVC and step-up to 4 shares from EQT dividend • 100% stock-for-unit Bcf/d MVC (1) exchange • Represented nearly • Dividend policy • Over 100,000 core 10% of shares targets (3) : • Simplified structure West Virginia acres outstanding offers enhanced • Leverage ratio dedicated governance and <4.0x • Consideration broadens investor structured to • Ability to generate base minimize upfront cash positive retained free cash flow payment (1) See slide 8 for additional information regarding the MVC profile. (2) Closed in early March 2020. See slide 10 for additional information regarding the share purchase. (3) Leverage Ratio is ETRN consolidated debt / (adjusted EBITDA + deferred revenue). See slide 33 for important disclosures regarding the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted EBITDA and retained free cash 4 flow. See slide 32 for important information regarding forward-looking statements.

  5. Accomplishing Key Objectives Single C-Corp security with enhanced corporate governance now in place Asymmetric risk profile through highly predictable cash flow Commercial alignment with EQT allows optimized drilling plan and midstream capital efficiency Dividend and capital allocation policy designed to advance strategic objectives and return value to shareholders in any environment De-levering plan to quickly strengthen balance sheet 5

  6. Phase One – Blend, Broaden and Extend Became effective with execution of new gas gathering agreement MVC of 3.0 Bcf/d Flexibility to execute combo development 15-year contract Single MVC eliminates legacy deficiencies Over 100,000 core WV acres dedicated Lower credit threshold for letter-of-credit posting Capital investment protections • Created ~$250 MM of liquidity 15-year gas gathering agreement for PA & WV replaced over a dozen agreements 6

  7. Phase Two – Blend, Broaden and Extend Effective with MVP in-service Rate relief limited to 3 years MVC step-up • $125 MM, $140 MM and $35 MM • Peaking at 4.0 Bcf/d 5-year PA water MVC (1) • Will generate $60 MM per year of firm revenue 3-year Henry Hub upside potential (2) • Up to $60 MM per year of cash flow (1) See slide 30 for additional information regarding water MVC. 7 (2) See slide 31 for additional information regarding the Henry Hub upside potential.

  8. Gas Gathering Agreement Significant step-up and extension of gathering MVC drives predictable cash flows New EQT MVC covers Phase 2 MVC Pennsylvania and West Virginia volumes Phase 1 MVC Assumes early 2021 MVP in-service. 8 Prior EQT MVCs include firm reservation commitments

  9. Gas Gathering Agreement Combo development / return to pad drilling leads to step-change in CAPEX Significant CAPEX Reductions Drive Long-Term Free Cash Flow (1) Combo Development / Return to Pad Example Systematic buildout of gas gathering system yields midstream capital efficiency Concentrated footprint reduces overall build miles relative • Existing gathering Step one – initial drilling plan to scattered pad development lines and compression ~30% reduction in capital from 50% fewer pipeline miles and • upsized pipe diameter from 12” to 16” Estimated $250 MM of capital savings over next few years • EQT choke management program results in predictable operations and enhanced midstream planning Step two – return to pad Avoid sizing midstream facilities for short-lived peak initial drilling utilizes • infrastructure built for production rates step one Minimize back-off of nearby wells when new production • comes on-line 9 (1) See slide 33 for important information regarding the non-GAAP financial measure free cash flow.

  10. 25.3 MM Shares of ETRN Purchased from EQT Unique opportunity to buy back significant block of ETRN stock Shares acquired & retired in March 2020 Upfront cash of $52 MM Rate relief over 2-years with MVP in-service $52 MM upfront cash (Phase 2) $196 MM PV-10 consideration to be paid in • $145 MM year-one and $90 MM year-two rate relief in Phase 2 • EQT has option to receive the rate relief Reduced equity overhang consideration in cash in the event that MVP is not in-service by January 2022 EQT remaining 25.3 million shares of ETRN represents approximately 6% of ETRN shares outstanding 10

  11. ETRN Acquired EQM Roll-up transaction simplified structure and provides multiple benefits Acquisition Terms Strategic Rationale ETRN acquired EQM in a 100% share-for- Single C-Corp security eliminates complexity unit exchange and provides clear governance • Transaction closed on June 17, 2020 ETRN expects near zero cash taxes through 2023 EQM is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Creates broader investor base ETRN Increased float improves trading liquidity Enhances opportunity for index inclusion 11
