Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report on Form8-K include the matters discussed in the section captioned “Outlook” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in EQM’S Form10-K for the year ended December31, 2017 (2017 Form10-K), as updated by EQM’S Form10-Q for the quarter ended March31, 2018 (Q1 2018 Form10-Q), as updated by Exhibits 99.3 and 99.6, respectively, of the Current Report on Form8-K filed by EQM on June12, 2018, and the expectations of plans, strategies, objectives, and growth and anticipated financial and operational performance of EQM and its subsidiaries, including guidance regarding EQM’s gathering and transmission and storage revenue and volume growth; the weighted average contract life of gathering, transmission and storage contracts; infrastructure programs (including the timing, cost, capacity and sources of funding with respect to gathering and transmission expansion projects); the cost, capacity, timing of regulatory approvals and anticipated in-service date of the Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP); the ultimate terms, partners and structure of Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC; expansion projects in EQM’s operating areas and in areas that would provide access to new markets; asset acquisitions, including EQM’s ability to complete asset acquisitions from EQT or third parties; whether EQM’s merger with RMP will be completed and the timing of the transaction; the risk that EQM or RMP may be unable to obtain governmental and regulatory approvals required for the proposed merger of EQM and RMP, or required governmental and regulatory approvals may delay the merger or result in the imposition of conditions that could cause the parties to abandon the merger; the risk that a condition to closing of the merger may not be satisfied, including approval of the merger by RMP’s unitholders holding a majority of the outstanding RMP common units; the possible diversion of management’s time on issues related to the merger; the impact and outcome of pending and future litigation, including litigation, if any, relating to the merger; the timing of the proposed separation of EQT’s production and midstream businesses and the parties’ ability to complete the separation; the amount and timing of distributions, including expected increases; the amounts and timing of projected capital contributions and operating and capital expenditures, including the amount of capital expenditures reimbursable by EQT; the impact of commodity prices on EQM’s business; liquidity and financing requirements, including sources and availability; the effects of government regulation and litigation; and tax position. The forward-looking statements included in this Current Report on Form8-K involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. EQM has based these forward-looking statements on current expectations and assumptions about future events. While EQM considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are beyond EQM’s control. The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance and results of EQM’s business and forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those set forth under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the 2017 Form10-K, as updated by PartII,Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the Q1 2018 Form10-Q.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made and EQM does not intend to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

In reviewing any agreements incorporated by reference in or filed with this Current Report on Form8-K, please remember that such agreements are included to provide information regarding the terms of such agreements and are not intended to provide any other factual or disclosure information about EQM. The agreements may contain representations and warranties by EQM, which should not in all instances be treated as categorical statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating the risk to one of the parties to such agreements should those statements prove to be inaccurate. The representations and warranties were made only as of the date of the relevant agreement or such other date or dates as may be specified in such agreement and are subject to more recent developments. Accordingly, these representations and warranties alone may not describe the actual state of affairs of EQM or its affiliates as of the date they were made or at any other time.
