This Form 3 is being filed in connection with the effectiveness of the Registration Statement (the ''Registration Statement'') on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-189284) of Antero Resources Corporation (the ''Issuer''). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement dated as of October 1, 2013, by and among the Issuer, Antero Resources LLC and the Reporting Person, the Reporting Person has been granted an irrevocable proxy and power of attorney to vote and dispose the shares of common stock of the Issuer owned by Antero Resources LLC. Accordingly, the Reporting Person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of all of the Issuer's shares held by Antero Resources LLC (in accordance with Rule 13d-3), which constitute all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Issuer at the time of effectiveness of the Registration Statement. Other than that beneficial ownership, however, the Reporting Person has no pecuniary or other reportable interest in any of the shares of common stock of the Issuer.
