<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:12.0pt;">On June&nbsp;10, 2010, EQT Production Company,
a wholly owned subsidiary of EQT Corporation, and EQT Corporation (&#147;EQT&#148;)
completed additional closings under the several agreements (the &#147;Agreements&#148;)
described in EQT&#146;s Form&nbsp;8-K dated March&nbsp;2, 2010. At the closings,
which represented approximately 10% of the anticipated total acres to be
acquired, EQT paid $1,798,349 in cash and issued an aggregate of 352,926 shares
of its common stock as payment.&#160;&#160; As a
result of these closings and the closings described in EQT&#146;s Form&nbsp;8-K
dated April&nbsp;30, 2010, EQT has now acquired approximately 90% of the total
acres to be acquired under the Agreements.&#160;
The Company expects to close on the remaining assets from time to time
as sellers take curative actions typical for Appalachian Basin properties.&#160; All remaining closings will be funded with
cash.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:12.0pt;">In accordance with registration rights agreements
entered into between the parties, the shares of common stock issued pursuant to
each Agreement have been registered for resale under the Company&#146;s registration
statement on Form&nbsp;S-3 (File No.&nbsp;333-148154) (the &#147;Registration
Statement&#148;), as supplemented by the prospectus supplements filed April&nbsp;30,
2010 and June&nbsp;10, 2010 (the &#147;Prospectus Supplement&#148;) with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.&#160; The Opinion and
Consent of Buchanan Ingersoll&nbsp;&amp; Rooney PC as to the validity of the
shares of common stock of the Company being offered and sold by the respective
selling shareholders pursuant to the Registration Statement as supplemented by
the Prospectus Supplement are each filed herewith and incorporated by reference

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:12.0pt;">In addition, at
the initial closings EQT entered into lock-up agreements with respect to the
shares of common stock issued pursuant to each of the Agreements which provide,
among other matters, that during each period of 30-days in the six months
following the initial closing, sales and certain other dispositions of the
shares of common stock issued pursuant to each Agreement are limited to ten
percent (10%) of the total shares of common stock issued at the initial closing
of that Agreement and at any subsequent closing of that Agreement.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:11.0pt;">Ladies and Gentlemen:</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:11.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:11.0pt;">We have acted as counsel
to EQT Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation (the &#147;Corporation&#148;), in
connection with the proposed issuance by the Corporation of up to 352,926
shares (the &#147;Selling Shareholders&#146; Shares&#148;) of the Corporation&#146;s common stock,
no par value, in connection with the Corporation&#146;s filing of a prospectus
supplement, dated June&nbsp;10, 2010, which further supplements the prospectus
supplement, dated April&nbsp;30, 2010, and the prospectus, dated December&nbsp;19,
2007, filed pursuant to Rule&nbsp;424(b)(7)&nbsp;under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (collectively, the &#147;Prospectus Supplement&#148;), covering the
offering and potential resale by the Selling Shareholders named therein of 352,926
Selling Shareholders&#146; Shares. The Prospectus Supplement forms a part of the
Registration Statement on Form&nbsp;S-3 (Registration No.&nbsp;333-148154)
filed by the Corporation under the Securities Act of 1933 (the &#147;Securities Act&#148;)
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;) on December&nbsp;19,
2007 (the &#147;Registration Statement&#148;).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:11.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:11.0pt;">We have examined and
relied upon the Prospectus Supplement, the Registration Statement, the purchase
agreements between the Corporation and the various sellers of assets named
therein, the Restated Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the
Corporation, certain resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Corporation
and/or committees thereof relating to the original issuance and sale of the
Selling Shareholders&#146; Shares as provided to us by the Corporation, and
originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of
such documents and records and have made such investigation of fact and such
examination of law as we have deemed appropriate in order to enable us to
render the opinion set forth herein.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:11.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

documents and the completeness and accuracy of all such documents provided to
us by the Corporation. As to any facts material to the opinion expressed
herein, we have, when such facts were not independently established, relied
upon certificates of public officials and certificates, oaths, declarations and
representations of the Corporation and of its officers, directors and other
representatives.</font></p>
