Cautionary Statements Certain statements included in this presentation are forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward- looking statements are those statements that are not historical in nature and may be identified by words such as, but not limited to, expect, “assume”, “project”, “plan”, outlook, intend, will, “preview,” “estimate,” and could.“ Contango Oil & Gas Company (“Contango”, “MCF” or the “Company”) cautions that strategic plans, assumptions, expectations, objectives for future operations, drilling results, projections, intentions, or beliefs about future events may, and often do, vary from actual results and the differences can be material. Some of the key factors which could cause actual results to vary from those Contango expects include risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic; the risk that the pending acquisition of oil and gas properties may not close as or when expected or produce anticipated benefits; the risk that the merger with Mid-Con Energy Partners, LP (“Mid-Con” or “MCEP”) will not be completed as expected and that, upon completion of the merger (the “Proposed Transaction”) of Mid-Con with and into Contango (the “Combined Company”); the cost savings, synergies and growth from the Proposed Transaction may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; the diversion of management time on transaction-related issues; the effect of future regulatory or legislative actions on the companies or the industry in which they operate; the risk that the credit ratings of the combined company or its subsidiaries may be different from what the companies expect; the risk that Contango or Mid-Con may be unable to obtain governmental and regulatory approvals required for the Proposed Transaction, or that required governmental and regulatory approvals may delay the Proposed Transaction or result in the imposition of conditions that could reduce the anticipated benefits from the Proposed Transaction or cause the parties to abandon the Proposed Transaction; the risk that a condition to closing of the Proposed Transaction may not be satisfied; the length of time necessary to consummate the Proposed Transaction, which may be longer than anticipated for various reasons; potential liability resulting from pending or future litigation; changes in the general economic environment, or social or political conditions, that could affect the businesses; the potential impact of the announcement or consummation of the Proposed Transaction on relationships with customers, suppliers, competitors, management and other employees; and risks associated with changes in natural gas and oil prices, the timing of planned capital expenditures, availability of acquisitions, uncertainties in estimating proved reserves and resource potential and forecasting drilling and production results, operational factors affecting the commencement or maintenance of producing wells, access to liquidity and compliance with credit agreements, the condition of the capital markets generally, as well as the Company’s ability to access them, and uncertainties regarding environmental regulations or litigation and other legal or regulatory developments affecting Contango's business; and the risk that Contango cannot secure financing for, close as expected, or realize the benefits from, the acquisition of the Project Silvertip assets. Statements regarding future production are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties normally incident to the exploration for and development and production of oil and gas. Please refer to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, and subsequent filings for a further discussion of these risks. This presentation includes certain estimates of proved reserves that have not been prepared in accordance with SEC pricing guidelines. Other estimates of hydrocarbon quantities included herein may not comport with specific definitions of reserves under SEC rules and cannot be disclosed in SEC filings. These estimates have been prepared by the Company and are by their nature more speculative than estimates of proved reserves and accordingly are subject to substantially greater risk of being actually realized by the Company. Please read “Reserves Disclaimers for certain information regarding the reserves and related information presented herein. Pro Forma for the Combined Company does not necessarily represent the actual reserves, or production or other results of the Combined Company. Although such estimates and any projections shown are based on management's good faith belief and current information available to it, actual results may differ materially from pro forma information, estimates or expectations.

PV-10 Definition PV-10 is a non-GAAP financial measure and represents the present value, discounted at 10% per year, of estimated future cash inflows from proved natural gas and crude oil reserves, less future development and production costs using pricing assumptions in effect at the end of the period. PV-10 differs from Standardized Measure because it does not include the effects of income taxes on future net revenues. Neither PV-10 nor Standardized Measure represents an estimate of fair market value of our natural gas and crude oil properties. PV-10 is used by the industry and by our management as an arbitrary reserve asset value measure to compare against past reserve bases and the reserve bases of other business entities that are not dependent on the taxpaying status of the entity. For purposes of the following table, proved reserves and PV-10 as of December 31, 2019 is calculated using SEC pricing. The following table provides a reconciliation of our Standardized Measure to PV-10 (in millions): Reconciliation of SEC PV‐10 and Adjusted PV‐10 (non‐GAAP) – Proved Reserves December 31, 2019 MCF MCEP Pro Forma (in millions) (in millions) (in millions) Standardized measure of future discounted cash flows (proved reserves) $           257.8 $           241.2 $           499.0 (1) Add: Present value of future income taxes attributable to proved reserves discounted at 10%                  28.7                       ‐                 28.7 SEC PV‐10 ‐ Proved reserves $           286.6 $           241.2 $           527.8 Less: Adjustment for strip pricing as of August 4, 2020 for proved reserves               (95.9)               (71.3)             (167.1) (2) Add: Other Adjustments                        ‐                   4.0                   4.0 Adjusted PV‐10 of proved reserves $           190.7 $           173.9 $           364.6 A reconciliation of PV-10 for the Undisclosed Seller Assets or the pro forma combined company to standardized measure is unavailable to Contango without unreasonable effort.

Reserves Disclaimer Reserves Disclaimer The SEC requires oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves, which are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible—from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions (using unweighted average 12-month first day of the month prices), operating methods, and government regulations—prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. In this presentation, we use the terms “proved reserves,” “proved developed producing (PDP)”, “proved developed non-producing (PDNP)”, “proved undeveloped (PUD)”, “upside”, and other descriptions of volumes of hydrocarbons potentially recoverable, through additional drilling or recovery techniques. None of the estimates contained in this release conform to SEC guidelines and were estimated under different pricing assumptions than the unweighted average 12-month first day of the month prices. All Contango reserves at December 31, 2019, were prepared by William M. Cobb & Associates, the Company’s independent third party petroleum engineering firm. Information regarding MCEP and the Undisclosed Seller Assets reserves was based on information provided, and representations made, by MCEP or Undisclosed Seller, respectively, and Contango disclaims any responsibility for its accuracy. Strip Pricing at August 4, 2020 is as follows: Yearly Average : Year WTI HH 2020 $41.83 $2.30 2021 $43.85 $2.77 2022 $45.19 $2.55 2023 $46.11 $2.46 2024 $46.98 $2.50 2025 $47.95 $2.58 2026 $49.02 $2.65 2027 $50.12 $2.70 2028 $51.23 $2.78 2029 $52.33 $2.90 This presentation includes reserves information pro forma for the Combined Company. Contango did not construct a consolidated reserves report of the Combined Company and did not engage an independent reserves engineer to produce such a report. The MCEP and the Undisclosed Seller Assets reserves are based on the MCEP or Undisclosed Seller development plan, which may differ from the plan that would be adopted by the combined company. Therefore, the pro forma reserves information and results of the Combined Company shown in this presentation are not necessarily indicative of actual future results of the Combined Company and such actual results may differ materially. Estimates of proved reserves disclosed in this presentation should be read together with the estimates of proved reserves that have been prepared in accordance with applicable SEC regulations and included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation includes the non-GAAP financial measures, EBITDAX and PV-10. EBITDAX represents net income (loss) before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, and oil and gas exploration expenses. We have included EBITDAX. We believe EBITDAX is an important supplemental measure of operating performance because it eliminates items that have less bearing on our operating performance and therefore highlights trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use EBITDAX in the evaluation of companies, many of which present EBITDAX when reporting their results. A reconciliation of EBITDAX, for Mid-Con, for Silvertip, or pro forma for Mid-Con, to net income (loss) is unavailable to Contango without unreasonable effort. Contango is not able to provide a quantitative reconciliation because certain items required for such reconciliation are outside of the company's control and/or cannot be reasonably determined. 18Reserves Disclaimer Reserves Disclaimer The SEC requires oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves, which are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible—from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions (using unweighted average 12-month first day of the month prices), operating methods, and government regulations—prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation.
