CRK Corporate Presentation

This presentation discusses forward-looking statements and includes risks related to estimates and assumptions. Comstock has assembled high-quality oil and gas assets focused on the Haynesville and Eagle Ford shales. Comstock plans production growth of 10% in 2016 and 40% in 2017 through a two-rig drilling program funded by operating cash flow. Comstock maintains a low-cost structure and is improving its balance sheet through debt exchanges that reduce annual cash interest costs.

This presentation includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements give our current
expectations or forecasts of future events. These statements include
estimates of future natural gas and oil reserves, expected natural gas and oil
production and future expenses, assumptions regarding future natural gas
and oil prices, budgeted capital expenditures and other anticipated cash
outflows, as well as statements concerning anticipated cash flow and
liquidity, business strategy and other plans and objectives for future
operations.
Our production forecasts are dependent upon many assumptions, including
estimates of production decline rates from existing wells and the outcome of
future drilling activity.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
in the forward-looking statements herein include the timing and extent of
changes in market prices for oil and gas, operating risks, liquidity risks,
including risks relating to our debt, political and regulatory developments
and legislation, and other risk factors and known trends and uncertainties as
described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2015 filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Should one or more of these risks
or uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect,
our actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in
the forward-looking statements.

Investment Considerations
§ Comstock has assembled a high quality portfolio of oil and gas assets in
the Haynesville and Eagle Ford shales
§ Comstock’s enhanced completion design has transformed the
Haynesville shale into one of North America’s highest return natural
gas basins
§ Comstock’s acreage position provides a strong foundation with over
700 operated locations, underpinning the Company’s future growth
§ Strong natural gas production growth to be driven by a two rig drilling
program funded primarily with operating cash flow
§ Natural gas production grows by ~10% in 2016 and ~40% in 2017
with high return Haynesville shale drilling program
§ Maintain low cost structure
§ One of the lowest overall cost structures in the industry which
improves with growth in Haynesville shale production
§ Balance sheet and liquidity improving
§ Retired $237 million of our senior notes generating annual interest
savings of $21 million with total interest savings to maturity of $83
million
§ Completed senior notes exchange offer reduces annual cash interest
burden by $37 million and allows the Company to pay an additional
$75 million in kind.
§ Future conversion of second lien notes will de-lever the balance sheet 3
