Exhibit 99.2

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations are derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of Chesapeake Energy Corporation (the “Company”).  The pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 gives effect to the disposition of the Company’s Fayetteville Shale upstream and midstream assets as if it had occurred on December 31, 2010.  The pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 reflects the Fayetteville Shale asset disposition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2010.  The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations should be read in conjunction with the notes thereto and the historical financial statements, including the notes thereto, of the Company included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
The preparation of the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is based on financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  These principles require the use of estimates that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to represent what the actual results of operations would have been had the transaction occurred on the respective dates assumed, nor is it necessarily indicative of the Company’s future operating results.  However, the pro forma adjustments reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information reflect estimates and assumptions that the Company’s management believes to be reasonable.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET

(a)
Adjustment to reflect the $926 million in excess cash from the sale of the Company’s Fayetteville Shale assets.  Of the $4.637 billion net cash proceeds received, $3.612 billion and $94 million were used to repay all principal amounts under the Company’s corporate and midstream revolving bank credit facilities, respectively, and approximately $5 million was used to repay the associated accrued interest on the facilities,

(b)
Adjustment to reflect the current portion of the deferred tax liability,

(c)
Adjustment to reduce the full-cost pool for the estimated fair market value of $4.286 billion attributable to the Company’s Fayetteville Shale natural gas and oil proved reserves.  The Company follows the full-cost method of accounting and as such, no gain was recognized on the sale of the capitalized Fayetteville Shale natural gas and oil properties,

(d)
Adjustment to reflect the elimination of $20 million of asset retirement obligations associated with the Company’s Fayetteville Shale assets and the associated asset retirement cost capitalized in the full-cost pool,

(e)
Adjustment to reclassify $167 million of the historical cost basis of unevaluated natural gas and oil properties associated with the sale of the Company’s Fayetteville Shale assets as evaluated natural gas and oil properties,
