Forward Looking Statements

Any “financial outlook” or “future oriented financial information” in this presentation as defined by applicable securities laws, has been approved by management of Baytex. Such financial

outlook or future oriented financial information is provided for the purpose of providing information about management’s current expectations and plans relating to the future. Readers are

cautioned that reliance on such information may not be appropriate for other circumstances.

In the interest of providing the shareholders of Baytex and potential investors with information regarding Baytex, including management's assessment of future plans and operations, certain

statements in this presentation are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and "forward-looking information"

within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as

"anticipate", "believe", "continue", "could", "estimate", "expect", "forecast", "intend", "may", "objective", "ongoing", "outlook", "potential", "project", "plan", "should", "target", "would", "will" or

similar words suggesting future outcomes, events or performance. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation peak only as of the date hereof and are expressly qualified by

this cautionary statement.

Specifically, this presentation contains forward-looking statements relating to but not limited to: that we have 10+ years of inventory in core areas, strong capital efficiencies and flexibility on

discretionary capital; the percentage of our net crude oil exposure that is hedged; that we have a consistent approach to risk management and are committed to strong ESG performance; our

GHG emissions intensity reduction target; expectations for 2020 as to Baytex’s production on a boe/d basis , production mix, exploration and development expenditures, production by area

and commodity; our 2020 outlook, including: that our capital program is designed to preserve financial liquidity, the amount of production we will shut-in, planned net wells and exploration and

development expenditures by operating area; the percentage of Baytex’s net exposure to oil prices that is hedged for Q1 and full year 2020; the sensitivity of our expected 2020 adjusted funds

flow to changes in WTI prices, WCS and MSW differentials, natural gas prices and the Canada-United States foreign exchange rate; that crude by rail is an effective tool for managing

differential exposure and provides greater operating netback certainty; our estimated crude oil and NGL sales portfolio for 2020 and our estimated 2020 WTI, WCS and MSW prices and Baytex

price realizations; for the Eagle Ford that enhanced completions continue to drive step change in performance; for the Viking that we have a steady pace of development in Q1/2020; in Peace

River and Lloydminster, that low decline production provides capital allocation flexibility, that innovative multi-lateral horizontal drilling generates strong capital efficiencies; for the East

Duvernay that we have measured delineation planned; the expected drilling and completion well costs, reserves and drilling inventory for our Eagle Ford, Peace River, Lloydminster, Viking and

East Duvernay assets; that we are committed to corporate sustainability and the components of our GHG emissions reduction strategy; and our revised 2020 guidance for exploration and

development expenditures, production, royalty rate, operating, transportation, general and administration and interest expense and leasing expenditures and asset retirement obligations. In

addition, information and statements relating to reserves are deemed to be forward-looking statements, as they involve implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that

the reserves described exist in quantities predicted or estimated, and that they can be profitably produced in the future. In addition, information and statements relating to reserves are deemed

to be forward-looking statements, as they involve implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that the reserves described exist in quantities predicted or estimated, and

that they can be profitably produced in the future.

These forward-looking statements are based on certain key assumptions regarding, among other things: petroleum and natural gas prices and differentials between light, medium and heavy oil

prices; well production rates and reserve volumes; the ability to add production and reserves through exploration and development activities; capital expenditure levels; the ability to borrow

under credit agreements; the receipt, in a timely manner, of regulatory and other required approvals for operating activities; the availability and cost of labour and other industry services;

interest and foreign exchange rates; the continuance of existing and, in certain circumstances, proposed tax and royalty regimes; the ability to develop crude oil and natural gas properties in

the manner currently contemplated; and current industry conditions, laws and regulations continuing in effect (or, where changes are proposed, such changes being adopted as anticipated).

Readers are cautioned that such assumptions, although considered reasonable by Baytex at the time of preparation, may prove to be incorrect.

Advisory (Cont.)

Actual results achieved will vary from the information provided herein as a result of numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors. Such factors include, but are not

limited to: the volatility of oil and natural gas prices and price differentials (including the impacts of COVID-19); availability and cost of gathering, processing and pipeline systems; failure to

comply with the covenants in our debt agreements; the availability and cost of capital or borrowing; that our credit facilities may not provide sufficient liquidity or may not be renewed; risks

associated with a third-party operating our Eagle Ford properties; the cost of developing and operating our assets; depletion of our reserves; risks associated with the exploitation of our

properties and our ability to acquire reserves; new regulations on hydraulic fracturing; restrictions on or access to water or other fluids; changes in government regulations that affect the oil

and gas industry; regulations regarding the disposal of fluids; changes in environmental, health and safety regulations; public perception and its influence on the regulatory regime; restrictions

or costs imposed by climate change initiatives; variations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; risks associated with our hedging activities; changes in income tax or other laws or

government incentive programs; uncertainties associated with estimating oil and natural gas reserves; our inability to fully insure against all risks; risks of counterparty default; risks associated

with acquiring, developing and exploring for oil and natural gas and other aspects of our operations; risks associated with large projects; risks related to our thermal heavy oil projects;

alternatives to and changing demand for petroleum products; risks associated with our use of information technology systems; risks associated with the ownership of our securities, including

changes in market-based factors; risks for United States and other non-resident shareholders, including the ability to enforce civil remedies, differing practices for reporting reserves and

production, additional taxation applicable to non-residents and foreign exchange risk; and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. These and additional risk factors are discussed

in our Annual Information Form, Annual Report on Form 40-F and Management's Discussion and Analysis for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with Canadian securities regulatory

authorities and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and in our other public filings.

The above summary of assumptions and risks related to forward-looking statements has been provided in order to provide shareholders and potential investors with a more complete

perspective on Baytex’s current and future operations and such information may not be appropriate for other purposes.

There is no representation by Baytex that actual results achieved will be the same in whole or in part as those referenced in the forward-looking statements. The future oriented financial

information and forward-looking statements are made as of March 18, 2020 and Baytex disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result

of new information, future events or results or otherwise, other than as required by applicable securities laws.

Non-GAAP Financial and Capital Management Measures

This presentation contains certain financial measures that do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and therefore are considered

non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The following terms are not recognized measures under IFRS, but

are presented in this presentation.

“Adjusted funds flow” is defined as cash flow from operating activities adjusted for changes in non-cash operating working capital, asset retirement obligations settled and transaction costs.

Management of Baytex consider adjusted funds flow a key measure of performance as it demonstrates the combined entity’s ability to generate the cash flow necessary to fund capital

investments, debt repayment, settlement of abandonment obligations and potential future dividends. In addition, the ratio of net debt to adjusted funds flow is used to manage Baytex’s capital

structure.

“Asset Level Free Cash Flow” is defined as field level operating netback less exploration and development expenditures.

“Capital Efficiency” is defined as the cost to drill, complete, equip and tie-in a well divided by the initial production rate of the well on a boe basis over its initial 365 days of production.

“Exploration and development expenditures” is defined as expenditures related to drilling, completing and equipping, facilities, land, seismic and other. Exploration and development

expenditures includes additions to exploration and evaluation assets along with additions to oil and gas properties.

“Free cash flow” is defined as adjusted funds flow less exploration and development expenditures, payments on lease obligations and asset retirement obligations settled.

“Net debt” is defined as the sum of monetary working capital (which is current liabilities (excluding current financial derivatives and onerous contracts)) and the principal amount of both the

long-term notes of Baytex and the bank loans of Baytex. Management of Baytex believe that net debt assists in providing a more complete understanding of Baytex’s cash liabilities.

“Operating netback” is defined as petroleum and natural gas sales less blending expense, royalties, production and operating expense and transportation expense divided by barrels of oil

equivalent sales volume for the applicable period. Management of Baytex believe that operating netback assists in characterizing Baytex’s ability to generate cash margin on a unit of

production basis.

Advisory (Cont.)

Advisory Regarding Oil and Gas Information

The reserves information contained in this presentation has been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 51-101 -Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities of the Canadian

Securities Administrators ("NI 51-101"). The determination of oil and gas reserves involves the preparation of estimates that have an inherent degree of associated uncertainty. Categories of

proved and probable reserves have been established to reflect the level of these uncertainties and to provide an indication of the probability of recovery. The estimation and classification of

reserves requires the application of professional judgment combined with geological and engineering knowledge to assess whether or not specific reserves classification criteria have been

satisfied. Knowledge of concepts, including uncertainty and risk, probability and statistics, and deterministic and probabilistic estimation methods, is required to properly use and apply reserves

definitions.

The recovery and reserves estimates described herein are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual reserves and future production from

such reserves may be greater or less than the estimates provided herein. The estimates of reserves for individual properties may not reflect the same confidence level as estimates of reserves

for all properties, due to the effects of aggregation. Complete NI 51-101 reserves disclosure for year-end 2019 is included in our Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31,

2019, which has been filed with Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

This presentation discloses drilling inventory and potential drilling locations. Drilling inventory and drilling locations refers to Baytex’s total proved, probable and unbooked locations. Proved

locations and probable locations account for drilling locations in our inventory that have associated proved and/or probable reserves. Unbooked locations are internal estimates based on our

prospective acreage and an assumption as to the number of wells that can be drilled per section based on industry practice and internal review. Unbooked locations do not have attributed

reserves. Unbooked locations are farther away from existing wells and, therefore, there is more uncertainty whether wells will be drilled in such locations and if drilled there is more uncertainty

whether such wells will result in additional oil and gas reserves, resources or production. In the Eagle Ford, Baytex’s net drilling locations include 140 proved and 83 probable locations as at

December 31, 2019 and 52 unbooked locations. In the Viking, Baytex’s net drilling locations include 1,080 proved and 319 probable locations as at December 31, 2019 and 636 unbooked

locations. In Peace River, Baytex’s net drilling locations include 77 proved and 75 probable locations as at December 31, 2019 and 100 unbooked locations. In Lloydminster, Baytex’s net

drilling locations include 178 proved and 63 probable locations as at December 31, 2019 and 361 unbooked locations. In the Duvernay , Baytex’s net drilling locations include 11 proved and 10

probable locations as at December 31, 2019 and 295 unbooked locations.

References herein to average 30-day initial production rates and other short-term production rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons, however, such rates are not

determinative of the rates at which such wells will commence production and decline thereafter and are not indicative of long term performance or of ultimate recovery. While encouraging,

readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating aggregate production for us or the assets for which such rates are provided. A pressure transient analysis or well-test

interpretation has not been carried out in respect of all wells. Accordingly, we caution that the test results should be considered to be preliminary.

Where applicable, oil equivalent amounts have been calculated using a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil. BOEs may be misleading, particularly if

used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip

and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

Notice to United States Readers

The petroleum and natural gas reserves contained in this presentation have generally been prepared in accordance with Canadian disclosure standards, which are not comparable in all

respects to United States or other foreign disclosure standards. For example, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") requires oil and gas issuers, in their filings

with the SEC, to disclose only "proved reserves", but permits the optional disclosure of "probable reserves" (as defined in SEC rules). Canadian securities laws require oil and gas issuers

disclose their reserves in accordance with NI 51-101, which requires disclosure of not only "proved reserves" but also "probable reserves". Additionally, NI 51-101 defines "proved reserves“

and "probable reserves" differently from the SEC rules. Accordingly, proved and probable reserves disclosed in this presentation may not be comparable to United States standards. Probable

reserves are higher risk and are generally believed to be less likely to be accurately estimated or recovered than proved reserves.

In addition, under Canadian disclosure requirements and industry practice, reserves and production are reported using gross volumes, which are volumes prior to deduction of royalty and

similar payments. The SEC rules require reserves and production to be presented using net volumes, after deduction of applicable royalties and similar payments.

Moreover, in this presentation future net revenue from its reserves has been determined and disclosed estimated using forecast prices and costs, whereas the SEC rules require that reserves

be estimated using a 12-month average price, calculated as the arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within the 12-month period prior to the end of the reporting

period. As a consequence of the foregoing, the reserve estimates and production volumes in this presentation may not be comparable to those made by companies utilizing United States

reporting and disclosure standards.

All amounts in this presentation are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise specified.

(1) Barrel of oil equivalent ("boe") amounts have been calculated using a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil. The use of boe amounts may be misleading, particularly

if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does

not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

(2) Realized heavy oil prices are calculated based on sales dollars, net of blending and other expense. We include the cost of blending diluent in our realized heavy oil sales price in order to compare the

realized pricing on our produced volumes to the WCS benchmark.

(3) Other is comprised of realized foreign exchange gain or loss, other income or expense, current income tax expense or recovery and payments on onerous contracts. Refer to the Q3/2019 MD&A for

further information on these amounts.

(4) The terms “adjusted funds flow” and “operating netback” do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and therefore may not be

comparable to similar measures presented by other companies where similar terminology is used. See the advisory on non-GAAP measures on slide 3 of this presentation.
