We believe this non-GAAP measure, as we have defined it, provides a supplemental measure of financial performance of our current liquefaction, regasification and power generation operations. This measure excludes items that have little or no significance on day-to-day performance of our current liquefaction, regasification and power generation operations, including our corporate SG&A, contract termination charges and loss on mitigation sales, loss on extinguishment of debt, net, and other expense. As operating margin measures our financial performance based on operational factors that management can impact in the short-term and provides an assessment of controllable expenses, items associated with our capital structure and beyond the control of management in the short-term, such as depreciation and amortization, taxation, and interest expense are excluded. As a result, this supplemental metric affords management the ability to make decisions to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieve optimal financial performance of our current liquefaction, regasification and power generation operations. The principal limitation of this non-GAAP measure is that it excludes significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements. A reconciliation is provided for the non-GAAP financial measure to our GAAP net income/(loss). Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to our GAAP net income/(loss), and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. 32#33Disclaimers IN GENERAL.

Volumes of LNG and natural gas that we are able to deliver and sell through a particular facility may keep increasing after the Run Rate date due to additional large or small scale customers being added for service by the facility, so the Run Rate does not represent the date on which management expects the relevant facility to be operating at its full capacity. It is also possible for a facility to be operating at Run-Rate volumes prior to full commercial operations, and there can be no assurance if or when full commercial operations will occur. Operations of such projects at their full capacity volumes will occur later than, and may occur substantially later than, Run Rate. We cannot assure you if or when such projects will reach the date Run Rate or full capacity volumes. Actual results could differ materially from the illustration and there can be no assurance we will achieve our goal. (2) "Illustrative Annualized Operating Margin Goal" means our goal for Operating Margin under certain illustrative conditions, presented on a run rate basis by multiplying the average volume we expect to sell in the last quarter of the relevant period by four. "Operating Margin" means the sum of (i) Net income / (loss), (ii) Selling, general and administrative, (iii) Depreciation and amortization, (iv) Interest expense, (v) Other (income) expense, net (vi) Contract termination charges and Loss on Mitigation Sales, (vii) Loss on extinguishment of debt, net, and (viii) Tax expense (benefit), each as reported on our financial statements. Operating Margin is mathematically equivalent to Revenue minus Cost of sales minus Operations and maintenance, each as reported in our financial statements. Operating Margin is a Non-GAAP Financial Measure. Please see the Appendix to this Presentation for a reconciliation to our nearest GAAP measure and an explanation of the uses and limitations of Operating Margin. This goal reflects the volumes of LNG that it is our goal to sell under binding contracts multiplied by the average price per unit at which we expect to price LNG deliveries, including both fuel sales and capacity charges or other fixed fees, less the cost per unit at which we expect to purchase or produce and deliver such LNG or natural gas, including the cost to (i) purchase natural gas, liquefy it, and transport it to one of our terminals or purchase LNG in strip cargos or on the spot market, (ii) transfer the LNG into an appropriate ship and transport it to our terminals or facilities, (iii) deliver the LNG, regasify it to natural gas and deliver it to our customers or our power plants and (iv) maintain and operate our terminals, facilities and power plants. There can be no assurance that the costs of purchasing or producing LNG, transporting the LNG and maintaining and operating our terminals and facilities will result in the Illustrative Annualized Operating Margins reflected. For the purpose of this Presentation, we have assumed an average Operating Margin of between $5.29 and $7.57 per MMBtu, because we assume that (i) we purchase gas between $2.25 and $5.63 per MMBtu for the remaining periods in 2020 in spot cargos, and at a weighted average of $3.80 in 2021, in a combination of strip and spot cargos, (ii) our volumes increase over time, and (iii) we will have costs related to shipping, logistics and regasification similar to our current operations because the liquefaction facility and related infrastructure and supply chain to deliver LNG from Pennsylvania does not exist, and those costs will be distributed over the larger volumes. These costs do not include expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded on our financial statements, including the return of or return on capital expenditures for the relevant project, and selling, general and administrative costs. Our current cost of natural gas per MMBtu are higher than the costs we would need to achieve our Illustrative Annualized Operating Margin Goal, and the primary drivers for reducing these costs are the reduced costs of purchasing gas and the increased sales volumes, which result in lower fixed costs being spread over a larger number of MMBtus sold. References to volumes, percentages of such volumes and the Illustrative Annualized Operating Margin Goal related to such volumes (i) are not based on the Company's historical operating results, which are limited, and (ii) do not purport to be an actual representation of our future economics. We cannot assure you if or when we will enter into contracts for sales of additional LNG, the price at which we will be able to sell such LNG, or our costs to produce and sell such LNG. Actual results could differ materially from the illustration and there can be no assurance we will achieve our goal. 34#35Endnotes (3) "pipeline" or "In Discussion" refers to potential customers (i) with whom we are in active negotiations, (ii) for whom there is a request for proposals or competitive bid process, or (iii) for whom we anticipate a request for proposals or competitive bid process will soon be announced based on our discussions with the potential customer as of date of this Presentation. We cannot assure you if or when we will enter into contracts for sales of additional volumes, the price at which we will be able to sell such volumes, or our costs to purchase, liquefy, deliver and sell such volumes. Some, but not all, of our contracts contain minimum volume commitments, and our expected sales to customers reflected in any volumes referenced is substantially in excess of potential minimum volume commitments. References to these volumes and percentages of these volumes should not be viewed as guidance or management's view of the Company's projected earnings, is not based on the Company's historical operating results, which are limited, and does not purport to be an actual representation of our future economics. (4) This chart is based on management's internal reporting of volume data through July 27, 2020 which is tracked by management through daily live monitoring, formal reporting systems and informal information gathering. The forecasted monthly average gallons per day between August 2020 and December 2020 is based on management's illustrative goals of volumes to be delivered in each month illustrated. There can be no assurance that other facilities, future facilities or the same facilities over a different timeframe will achieve similar results and actual results could differ materially from previous results. The results of any particular facility are not representative of the results of facilities as a whole, and as our operating history is limited, past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results and should not be relied upon for any reason. (5) "Annualized Op. Margin" during the period from July 1 through July 27 refers to an assumed Operating Margin of $4.15/MMBtu (based on management's estimated forecast for July 2020) multiplied by 365 days, and during the period from August 2020 through December 2020, refers to management's Illustrative Annualized Operating Margin Goal, calculated by multiplying the Illustrative Operating Margin Goal for each month by the estimated delivered volumes, and multiplying the total by twelve. Please see Endnote 2 to this Presentation for more information. (6) Based on daily traded volume as of June 10, 2020, the day our conversion from Class B shares to Class A shares became effective, and daily traded volume on July 28, 2020. Factors other than the conversion from Class B shares to Class A shares may have impacted the daily trading volume. (7) Based on share holdings as of June 10, 2020, the day our conversion from Class B shares Class A shares became effective, and share holdings on July 28, 2020. Factors other than the conversion from Class B shares to Class A shares may have impacted the share holdings of these investors. (8) Barron's, "The Big 3 Index Providers Have a Huge Amount of Power - Even Over Tesla", July 17, 2020 (available at https://www.barrons.com/articles/the-big-3-index-providers-have-a-huge- amount-of-powereven-over-tesla-51595026560). (9) We may not be included in major indices within the next two quarters or at all. There can be no assurance that passive assets will increase in line with our expectations or at all, particularly if we are not included in major indices. (10) Calculated based on the expected delivered volume of the 8 cancelled cargos divided by the $105mm payment related to the cancellation of such cargos. (11) The prices at which we have purchased cargos should not be relied upon to estimate the prices at which we will purchase cargos in the future. (12) $6mm savings calculated based on the average savings per MMBtu of LNG cancelled and repurchased at spot rates, multiplied by the volume of cargos cancelled and repurchased at spot rates. Our past results should not be relied upon to estimate our future results, and there can be no assurance that we will net a positive impact from our cargo swap. Savings for the second half of 2020 are based on the implied buydown price per MMBtu from our contracted cargos in the second half of 2020, less the actual market price of natural gas per MMBtu (sourced from Bloomberg as of July 3, 2020) multiplied times the number of MMBtu that were contracted in the second half of 2020 and which we expect to repurchase at actual market prices. There can be no assurance that we will purchase an equivalent number of cargos as we cancelled, or that the price we will pay for any cargos we purchase in the second half of 2020 will be in line with our expectations or lower than the price under which we cancelled cargos. 35#36Endnotes (13) Refers to the corporate family credit rating that NFE received from Moody's and S&P. There can be no assurance that NFE will become an investment grade company on the timeline that we expect or at all. There are many factors that impact borrowing costs and our ability to refinance our debt or raise funds in the future, so there can be no assurance that rated debt would allow us to reduce our borrowing costs or lower our interest rate. (14) There are many factors that impact borrowing costs and our ability to refinance our debt or raise funds in the future, so there can be no assurance that rated debt or any other development discussed in this Presentation would allow us to refinance our debt to reduce our borrowing costs or lower our interest rate. (15) "free cash flow" means our goal for free cash flow under certain illustrative conditions, presented on a run rate basis by multiplying the free cash flow average volume we expect to sell in the last quarter of the relevant period by four. "free cash flow" is calculated by taking the net loss, plus (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) non-cash interest expense, (iii) other expense or income, (iv) Contract termination charges and Loss on mitigation sales, (v) loss on extinguishment of debt, (vi) tax expense, and (vii) adjustments for expenses not otherwise indicative of our ongoing performance, including non-cash share-based compensation expense and non-capitalizable development-related expenses. free cash flow would not include expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded on our financial statements, including the return of or return on capital expenditures for the relevant project, and selling, general and administrative costs. Our current cost of natural gas per MMBtu are higher than the costs we would need to achieve a free cash flow which would make it appropriate to distribute dividends, and the primary drivers for reducing these costs are the reduced costs of purchasing gas and the increased sales volumes, which result in lower fixed costs being spread over a larger number of MMBtus sold. References to volumes, percentages of such volumes and the free cash flow goals related to such volumes (i) are not based on the Company's historical operating results, which are limited, and (ii) do not purport to be an actual representation of our future economics. We cannot assure you if or when we will enter into contracts for sales of additional LNG, the price at which we will be able to sell such LNG, or our costs to produce and sell such LNG. Actual results could differ materially from the illustration and there can be no assurance we will achieve our goal. (16) Regarding the Company's future consideration of paying a dividend, any decision regarding the payment of a dividend would be subject to evaluation and approval by our Board of Directors on a quarterly basis. In making such a determination, the Board of Directors would evaluate factors it deems relevant, including, but not limited to, the Company's current and projected financial condition and available liquidity; investment and other capital needs; contractual obligations; and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors in making its determination. There can be no assurance that the Board of Directors will declare a dividend in the future or, if any dividend is declared, the timing or amount of any dividend declared. (17) Based on the total assets under management for the yield and income funds in the United States and Canada, based on data from NASDAQ. (18) "Operational" or "Turning On" with respect to a particular project means we expect gas to be made available within thirty (30) days, gas has been made available to the relevant project, or that the relevant project is in full commercial operations. Where gas is going to be made available or has been made available but full commercial operations have not yet begun, full commercial operations will occur later than, and may occur substantially later than, our reported Operational date. We cannot assure you if or when such projects will reach full commercial operations. Actual results could differ materially from the illustrations reflected in this presentation and there can be no assurance we will achieve our goals. 36#37Endnotes (19) "Illustrative Adj. EBITDA Goal" means our goal for Adj. EBITDA under certain illustrative conditions, presented on a run rate basis by multiplying the Illustrative Adj. EBITDA Goal average volume we expect to sell in the last quarter of the relevant period by four. "Adj. EBITDA" is calculated by taking the net loss, plus (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense, (iii) other expense or income, (iv) contract termination charges or loss on mitigation sales, (v) loss on extinguishment of debt, (iv) tax expense, and (vii) adjusted for expenses not otherwise indicative of our ongoing performance, including non-cash share-based compensation expense and non-capitalizable development-related expenses. Adj. EBITDA would not include expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded on our financial statements, including the return of or return on capital expenditures for the relevant project, and certain selling, general and administrative costs. Our current cost of natural gas per MMBtu are higher than the costs we would need to achieve our Illustrative Adj. EBITDA Goal, and the primary drivers for reducing these costs are the reduced costs of purchasing gas and the increased sales volumes, which result in lower fixed costs being spread over a larger number of MMBtus sold. References to volumes, percentages of such volumes and the Illustrative Adj. EBITDA Goal related to such volumes (i) are not based on the Company's historical operating results, which are limited, and (ii) do not purport to be an actual representation of our future economics. We cannot assure you if or when we will enter into contracts for sales of additional LNG, the price at which we will be able to sell such LNG, or our costs to produce and sell such LNG. Actual results could differ materially from the illustration and there can be no assurance we will achieve our goal. (20) "Debt / Illustrative Adj. EBITDA Goal" is calculated by dividing our total debt of $980mm by our Illustrative Adj. EBIDTA Goal for each period. For more information about Illustrative Adj. EBITDA Goal please see Endnote 19. (21) "Committed" means our expected volumes to be sold to customers under (i) binding contracts, (ii) non-binding letters of intent, (iii) non-binding memorandums of understanding, (iv) binding or non-binding term sheets or (v) have been officially selected as the winning provider in a request for proposals or competitive bid process, in each case, as of the period specified in the Presentation. Some, but not all, of our contracts contain minimum volume commitments, and our expected volumes to be sold to customers reflected in the Presentation are substantially in excess of such minimum volume commitments. Our near-term ability to sell these volumes is dependent on our customers' continued willingness and ability to continue purchasing these volumes and to perform their obligations under their respective contracts. If any of our customers fails to continue to make such purchases or fails to perform its obligations under its contract, our operating results, cash flow and liquidity could be materially and adversely affected. References to Committed Volumes in the future and percentages of these volumes in the future should not be viewed as guidance or management's view of the Company's projected earnings, is not based on the Company's historical operating results, which are limited, and does not purport to be an actual representation of our future economics. (22) "Capacity" refers to the technical, regulatory or physical limitation on our facility's volume capacity, which could be our physical or permissioned capability to deliver LNG to the facility, landed or floating storage capacity at the facility, the loading or unloading rate of LNG or natural gas to or from the facility, or the technical capacity of the regasification equipment. For our projects in development, these capacity volumes represent our estimates of the limiting technical, regulatory or physical factor based on regulatory, technical and engineering advice that management has received. "Available Capacity" is the Capacity of each facility, less the Run-Rate Volumes from Committed customers as illustrated on this Slide 12. (23) Our Operating assets during the second quarter of 2020 were the Montego Bay Facility, Miami Facility, Old Harbour Facility and San Juan Facility year to date through July 29, 2020. These metrics are tracked by management through formal reporting systems and informal escalation paths. There can be no assurance that we will achieve similar results in the future and future results could differ materially from previous results. The results of any particular facility are not representative of the results of facilities as a whole, and as our operating history is limited, past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results and should not be relied upon for any reason. 37#38Endnotes (24) "Availability" means the percentage of time the NFE facility is operable less NFE planned downtime for our Montego Bay Facility, Miami Facility, Old Harbour Facility and San Juan Facility year to date through July 29, 2020. There can be no assurance that other facilities, future facilities or the same facilities over a different timeframe will achieve similar results and actual results could differ materially from previous results. The results of any particular facility are not representative of the results of facilities as a whole, and as our operating history is limited, past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results and should not be relied upon for any reason. (25) "Reliability" means the percentage of time the NFE facility is operable less planned or unplanned NFE downtime for our Montego Bay Facility, Miami Facility, Old Harbour Facility and San Juan Facility year to date through July 29, 2020. There can be no assurance that other facilities, future facilities or the same facilities over a different timeframe will achieve similar results and actual results could differ materially from previous results. The results of any particular facility are not representative of the results of facilities as a whole, and as our operating history is limited, past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results and should not be relied upon for any reason. (26) These metrics reflect our entire operating history through June 30, 2020. These metrics are tracked by management through formal reporting systems and informal information gathering. There can be no assurance that we will achieve similar results in the future and future results could differ materially from previous results. The results of any particular facility are not representative of the results of facilities as a whole, and as our operating history is limited, past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results and should not be relied upon for any reason. (27) Our project timelines and costs are based on internal evaluations, and refer to completing certain stages of projects within a timeframe and within a spectrum of budget parameters that, when taken as a whole, are substantially consistent with our business model. We do not have development or operational experience with the ISO Flex System and we can make no assurance that it will reduce project timelines or costs. (28) "Est. Costs of Construction" means management's internal estimates of construction and development costs related to the ISO Flex System and without the ISO Flex System, including costs related to the marine, regasification, truck loading, power and transportation infrastructure. These osts do not include all costs included in generally accepted accounting principles and should not be relied upon for any reason. (29) "Est. Costs of Operation" means management's internal estimates of operational costs related to the ISO Flex System and without the ISO Flex System, including costs related to the marine, truck loading, power and transportation operations. These costs do not include all costs included in generally accepted accounting principles and should not be relied upon for any reason. (30) Based on power prices in Mexico from CENACE. (31) "First Gas" means the date on which (or, for future dates, management's current estimate of the date on which) natural gas is first made available to our projects, including our facilities in development. Full commercial operations of such projects will occur later than, and may occur substantially later than, the First Gas date. We cannot assure you if or when such projects will reach the date of delivery of First Gas, or full commercial operations. Actual results could differ materially from the illustration and there can be no assurance we will achieve our goal. (32) Based on management's estimates of permitting preparation, submission and approval timeline. There can be no assurance that we will achieve our goal. (33) Additional design and drawings are required for submission of permits and construction. 38#39Endnotes (34) These illustrative project costs are management's internal estimates of construction and development costs related to our total projects, including the ISO Flex System along with the development or conversion of a natural gas power plant. These costs do not include all costs included in generally accepted accounting principles and should not be relied upon for any reason. Each project has specific budget for its costs which may vary significantly from this illustration, so this illustration should not be relied upon to estimate the costs of any particular project or at all. (35) This illustrative deploy time is our management's internal estimates of development timeline, which may vary by jurisdiction and generally runs from completion of the construction permit process through the final certification of completion. We do not have development or operational experience with the ISO Flex System and we can make no assurance that our internal estimates regarding these timelines are correct across jurisdictions or for any particular project. (36) This chart is an illustration of the added value to our business of each new deal that we bring to Run Rate Volume and full commercial operations, and is not meant to be an indication of our expected future results. The Average Annualized Operating Margin Goal is calculated by multiplying the number of new deals by $150mm in Annualized Operating Margin Goal, which is the midpoint of our Illustrative Annualized Operating Margin Goal of between $100mm and $200mm. This Illustrative Annualized Operating Margin Goal is based on an assumed average Operating Margin of $5.00/MMBtu for each new project in our target regions. Our operating history is limited and there can be no assurance that we will achieve this Average Annualized Operating Margin Goal for any particular new project, any number of new projects, or that we will bring any new project to Run Rate Volumes or full commercial operations. (37) "LNG" is an illustrative LNG fuel price for customers of at least 100 MW in the Caribbean of 115% of Henry Hub plus $6.00 per MMBtu. "Diesel" means an illustrative diesel fuel price for customers of at least 100 MW in the Caribbean of the New York Harbor Ultra Low Sulfur index plus $7.50 per barrel, divided by 5.59 to convert to MMBtu, for each day. The information for the Henry Hub price for natural gas used in "LNG" and for the New York Harbor Ultra Low Sulfur index used for "Diesel" is from Bloomberg as of July 29, 2020. The price information for LNG and Diesel is not meant to include any infrastructure or capacity charges, and our customers' and potential customers' actual LNG or Diesel offtake agreements may have higher or lower pricing than is included in this illustration. Other data on this Slide 23 based on July 2020 EIA Short Term Energy Outlook, available at https://eia.gov/outlooks/steo/data.php. (38) Open cargos based on our estimated gas needs over the next five years for certain of our current customers and our current contracted volumes for LNG in long term strip cargos. We cannot assure you if or when we will enter into contracts for sales of In Discussion customers, and if we Commit additional customers we will have a higher number and percentage of Open Cargos, so there can be no assurance that our estimates are correct. In addition, there can be no assurance that our construction or commissioning timelines would enable us to sell LNG or natural gas within the timeline estimated or at all. (39) "Cash SG&A" means SG&A, excluding non-cash share-based compensation expense and non-capitalizable development related expenses and expenses associated with simplifying our corporate structure, during the relevant period. (40) "Total Debt" is the sum of our $800mm Term Loan Facility and our $180mm CHP Bonds. (41) "Cash on Hand" means the sum of Cash and cash equivalents and Restricted cash as presented in our financial statements for the period referenced. (42) Please see Endnote 2 for more information about our Illustrative Annualized Operating Margin Goal. For this slide, the Illustrative Annualized Operating Margin Goal is calculated by multiplying the Illustrative Operating Margin Goal for each quarter by four. 39
