FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION AND STATEMENTS

This presentation contains certain forward-looking information and forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable securities laws ("forward-looking

information"). The use of any of the words "expect", "anticipate", "continue", "estimate", “guidance”, "objective", "ongoing", "may", "w ill", "project", "should", "believe",

"plans", "intends", “budget”, "strategy" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking information. In particular, but without limiting the foregoing, this

presentation contains forward-looking information pertaining to the following: expected 2014 and 2015 average production volumes and the anticipated production mix; the

proportion of our anticipated oil and gas production that is hedged; our drilling program including future development and drilling locations and plans, the results from our

drilling program and the timing of related production; future oil and natural gas prices and differentials and our commodity risk management programs; expectations

regarding our realized oil and natural gas prices; future royalty rates on our production and future production taxes; future efficiencies and reserves and production growth;

anticipated cash and non-cash G&A, share-based compensation and financing expenses; operating costs; capital spending levels in 2014 and its impact on our production

level; potential future asset impairments; the amount of our future abandonment and reclamation costs and asset retirement obligations; future environmental expenses; our

future U.S. cash taxes; deferred income taxes, our tax pools and the time at which we may pay Canadian cash taxes and regular U.S. taxes; future funds flow levels; future

debt and working capital levels and debt-to-funds-flow ratio and adjusted payout ratio, financial capacity, liquidity and capital resources to fund capital spending and working

capital requirements; the amount and timing of future cash dividends that we may pay to our shareholders; and future dispositions, including expected proceeds therefrom

and production volumes associated therewith.

The forward-looking information included in this presentation is not a guarantee of future performance and should not be unduly relied upon. Such information involves

known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking

information including, without limitation: changes in commodity prices; changes in realized prices for Enerplus’ products; changes in the demand for or supply of Enerplus'

products; unanticipated operating results, results from development plans or production declines; changes in tax or environmental laws, royalty rates, incentive programs or

other regulatory matters; changes in development plans by Enerplus or by third party operators of Enerplus' properties; increased debt levels or debt service requirements;

inaccurate estimation of Enerplus' oil and gas reserves and resources volumes; limited, unfavourable or a lack of access to capital markets; increased costs; a lack of

adequate insurance coverage; the impact of competitors; reliance on industry partners; constraints on, or unavailability of, adequate pipeline and transportation capacity;

and certain other risks detailed from time to time in Enerplus' public disclosure documents (including, without limitation, those risks identified in our AIF and Form 40-F

described below and under “Risk Factors and Risk Management” in our MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2013).

The forward-looking information contained in this presentation reflects several material factors, expectations and assumptions made by Enerplus including, without limitation:

that we will conduct our operations and achieve results of operations as anticipated; that our development plans will achieve the expected results; the general continuance of

current or, where applicable, assumed industry conditions; the continuation of assumed tax, royalty and regulatory regimes; the accuracy of the estimates of our reserve and

resource volumes; commodity price and cost assumptions; the continued availability of adequate debt and/or equity financing and funds flow to fund our capital, operating

and working capital requirements, and dividend payments as needed; the continued availability and sufficiency of our funds flow and availability under our bank credit facility

to fund our working capital deficiency; the availability of third party services; and the extent of our liabilities. We believe the material factors, expectations and assumptions

reflected in the forward-looking information are reasonable but no assurance can be given that these factors, expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct.

The forward-looking information contained in this presentation speaks only as of the date of this presentation, and none of Enerplus or its subsidiaries assume any

obligation to publicly update or revise such forward-looking information to reflect new events or circumstances, except as may be required pursuant to applicable laws.

Advisories

Assumptions All amounts are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise specified.

Barrels of Oil Equivalent and Cubic Feet of Gas Equivalent This presentation contains references to "BOE" (barrels of oil equivalent) and "Bcfe" (billion cubic feet of gas equivalent). Enerplus has adopted the standard of six thousand cubic

feet of gas to one barrel of oil (6 Mcf: 1 bbl) when converting natural gas to BOEs, and one barrel of oil to six thousand cubic feet of gas (1 bbl: 6 Mcf) when converting oil to Bcfes .

BOEs and Bcfes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. The foregoing conversion ratios are based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at

the burner tip and do not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of oil as compared to natural gas is significantly

different from the energy equivalent of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading. "MBOE" and "MMBOE" mean "thousand barrels of oil equivalent" and "million

barrels of oil equivalent", respectively.

Non-GAAP Measures In this presentation, we use the terms "funds flow", “free cash flow”, “capital efficiency”, and “recycle ratio” as measures to analyze operating performance, leverage and

liquidity. “Funds flow” is calculated as net cash generated from operating activities but before changes in non-cash operating working capital and asset retirement obligation

expenditures. “Debt to funds flow ratio” is used by Enerplus and is useful to investors and securities analysts in analyzing leverage and liquidity. The debt to funds flow ratio is

calculated as total debt net of cash, divided by a trailing 12 months of funds flow. “Adjusted payout patio” is used by Enerplus and is useful to investors and securities analysts in

analyzing operating performance, leverage and liquidity. We calculate our adjusted payout ratio as dividends to shareholders, net of our Stock Dividend Program (“SDP”) proceeds,

plus capital spending (including office capital) divided by funds flow. “Free cash flow” is calculated as net operating income (netback) less capital expenditures. “Capital efficiency” is

calculated as the change in production from the fourth quarter of the previous year to the fourth quarter of the current year divided by total capital expenditures from the fourth

quarter of the previous year up to and including the third quarter of the current year. A “recycle ratio” is calculated as finding and development costs divided by operating netback.

Enerplus believes that, in addition to net earnings and other measures prescribed by U.S. GAAP, the terms "funds flow", "capital efficiency”, and “recycle ratio” are useful

supplemental measures as they provide an indication of the results generated by Enerplus' principal business activities. However, these measures are not measures recognized by

U.S. GAAP and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by U.S.GAAP. Therefore, these measures, as defined by Enerplus, may not be comparable to similar measures

presented by other issuers.

Presentation of Production and Reserves Information Under U.S. GAAP oil and gas sales are generally presented net of royalties and U.S. industry protocol is to present production volumes net of royalties. Under IFRS and Canadian

industry protocol oil and gas sales and production volumes are presented on a gross basis before deduction of royalties. In order to continue to be comparable with our Canadian

peer companies, the summary results contained within this presentation presents our production and BOE measures on a before royalty company interest basis. In addition, initial

test results and production performance referenced should be considered preliminary data and such data is not necessarily indicative of long-term performance, or of ultimate

recovery.

All production volumes and revenues presented herein are reported on a “company interest” basis, before deduction of Crown and other royalties, plus Enerplus’ royalty interest.

Unless otherwise specified, all reserves volumes in this presentation (and all information derived therefrom) are based on "company interest reserves" using forecast prices and

costs. "Company interest reserves" consist of "gross reserves" (as defined in National Instrument 51-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities (NI 51-101)), being

Enerplus' working interest before deduction of any royalties), plus Enerplus' royalty interests in reserves. “Company interest reserves" are not a measure defined in NI 51-101 and

do not have a standardized meaning under NI 51-101. Accordingly, our company interest reserves may not be comparable to reserves presented or disclosed by other issuers. Our

oil and gas reserves statement for the year ended December 31, 2013, includes complete disclosure of our oil and gas reserves and other oil and gas information in accordance

with NI 51-101, is contained within our Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2013 ("our AIF") which is available on our website at www.enerplus.com and

under our SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com. Additionally, our AIF forms part of our Form 40-F that is filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and is available on

EDGAR at www.sec.gov. Readers are also urged to review the Management’s Discussion & Analysis and financial statements filed on SEDAR and as part of our Form 40-F on

EDGAR concurrently with this presentation for more complete disclosure on our operations.

Discovered Petroleum Initially-In-Place Discovered Petroleum Initially-In-Place (“PIIP”) is that quantity of petroleum that is estimated to be contained in known accumulations prior to production. The recoverable portion of

discovered PIIP includes production, reserves and contingent resources; the remainder is unrecoverable. Discovered Original Oil in Place (“OOIP” ) is not defined in NI 51-101 and

does not have a standardized meaning under NI 51-101. Discovered OOIP as used in this presentation is the crude oil portion of discovered PIIP. Discovered OOIP for our North

Dakota assets were provided by an independent estimate by McDaniel & Associates dated June 9, 2014 and as of June 1, 2014. Discovered OOIP pertaining to our waterflood

assets are estimates by internal qualified reserves evaluators, combined for all core waterfloods.

Contingent Resource Estimates This presentation contains estimates of "contingent resources". "Contingent resources" are not, and should not be confused with, oil and gas reserves. The estimates of contingent

resources included in this presentation pertaining to Fort Berthold and Canadian Gas-Deep Basin properties were evaluated by Enerplus and audited by independent reserve

evaluators, McDaniel & Associates. The estimates of “contingent resources” included in this presentation pertaining to the U.S. Core Gas-Marcellus were evaluated by independent

reserves evaluators, Netherland, Sewell & Associates. The estimates of “contingent resources” included in this presentation pertaining to Canadian Waterflood Assets were

evaluated by internal qualified reserves evaluators. "Contingent resources" are defined in the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook (the "COGE Handbook") as "those

quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations using established technology or technology under development, but

which are not currently considered to be commercially recoverable due to one or more contingencies. Contingencies may include factors such as economics, legal, environmental,

political and regulatory matters or a lack of markets. It is also appropriate to classify as “contingent resources” the estimated discovered recoverable quantities associated with a

project in the early evaluation stage. All of our “contingent resources” estimates are economic using established technologies and under current commodity price assumptions used

by our independent reserve evaluators. Enerplus expects to develop these “contingent resources” in the coming years however it is too early in their development for these

resources to be classified as reserves at this time. There is no certainty that we will produce any portion of the volumes currently classified as “contingent resources”. The

“contingent resources” estimates contained herein are presented as the "best estimate" of the quantity that will actually be recovered. The “contingent resources” estimate

pertaining to Fort Berthold is effective as of June 1,2014. All other “contingent resources” estimates are effective as of December 31, 2013. A "best estimate" of contingent

resources” means that it is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the best estimate, and if probabilistic methods are used, there

should be at least a 50% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the best estimate.

For additional information regarding the primary contingencies which currently prevent the classification of our disclosed “contingent resources” associated with our Marcellus shale

gas properties, our Fort Berthold properties, our Wilrich natural gas properties and a portion of our Canadian crude oil properties as reserves, and the positive and negative factors

relevant to the “contingent resource” estimates, see our AIF, a copy of which is available under our SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com, and our Form 40-F, a copy of which is

available under our EDGAR profile at www.sec.gov.

Advisories

See "Non-GAAP Measures" above.

Finding & Development (“F&D”)and Finding, Development & Acquisition (“FD&A”) Costs F&D costs presented in this presentation are calculated (i) in the case of F&D costs for proved reserves, by dividing the sum of exploration and development costs

incurred in the year plus the change in estimated proved future development costs in the year, by the additions to proved reserves in the year, and (ii) in the case of

F&D costs for proved plus probable reserves, by dividing the sum of exploration and development costs incurred in the year plus the change in estimated proved plus

probable future development costs in the year, by the additions to proved plus probable reserves in the year. The aggregate of the exploration and development costs

incurred in the most recent financial year and the change during that year in estimated future development costs generally reflect total finding and development costs

related to its reserves additions for that year.

FD&A costs presented in this presentation are calculated (i) in the case of FD&A costs for proved reserves, by dividing the sum of exploration and development costs

and the cost of net acquisitions incurred in the year plus the change in estimated proved future development costs in the year, by the additions to proved reserves

including net acquisitions in the year, and (ii) in the case of FD&A costs for proved plus probable reserves, by dividing the sum of exploration and development costs

and the cost of net acquisitions incurred in the year plus the change in estimated proved plus probable future development costs in the year, by the additions to proved

plus probable reserves including net acquisitions in the year. The aggregate of the exploration and development and net acquisition costs incurred in the most recent

financial year and the change during that year in estimated future development costs generally reflect total finding, development and acquisition costs related to its

reserves additions for that year.

See "Non-GAAP Measures" above.

NOTICE TO U.S. READERS The oil and natural gas reserves information contained in this presentation has generally been prepared in accordance with Canadian disclosure standards, which are

not comparable in all respects to United States or other foreign disclosure standards. Reserves categories such as "proved reserves" and "probable reserves" may be

defined differently under Canadian requirements than the definitions contained in the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") rules. In addition,

under Canadian disclosure requirements and industry practice, reserves and production are reported using gross (or, as noted above, "company interest") volumes,

which are volumes prior to deduction of royalty and similar payments. The practice in the United States is to report reserves and production using net volumes, after

deduction of applicable royalties and similar payments. Canadian disclosure requirements require that forecasted commodity prices be used for reserves evaluations,

while the SEC mandates the use of an average of first day of the month price for the 12 months prior to the end of the reporting period. Additionally, the SEC prohibits

disclosure of oil and gas resources in SEC filings, whereas Canadian issuers may disclose oil and gas resources. Resources are different than, and should not be

construed as reserves. For a description of the definition of, and the risks and uncertainties surrounding the disclosure of, contingent resources, see “Contingent

Resource Estimates” above.
