Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant's Employee Benefit Plans.
 
On April 24, 2007, Quicksilver Resources Inc. (the “Company”) received the notice required by section 101(i)(2)(E) of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 of a blackout period with respect to the Quicksilver Resources Inc. 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”).  The notice, sent by the Plan administrator, states that, as a result of the Plan’s transition to a new recordkeeper and a new trustee, there will be a blackout period during which all participant-initiated transactions will be suspended.  During the blackout period, Plan participants may not enroll, change contributions, obtain a loan or withdrawal, change investment fund direction, or otherwise direct or diversify the assets held in Plan accounts, including accounts that hold the Company common stock.  Pursuant to Section 306(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, during the blackout period, directors and executive officers of the Company are prohibited from directly or indirectly purchasing, selling, or otherwise acquiring or transferring any equity securities of the Company (including Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share, restricted stock, and stock options and other derivative securities) that were acquired in connection with their service or employment as a director or executive officer of the Company.  The blackout period will begin on May 24, 2007 and end the week beginning June 3, 2007.
 
A Plan participant, security holder, or other interested person may obtain, without charge, information regarding the blackout period, including the beginning and actual ending date of the blackout period, by contacting Elizabeth Giddens, Senior Attorney of the Company, at (817) 665-4894 or 777 West Rosedale Street, Suite 300, Fort Worth, Texas 76104, before and during the blackout period and for a period of two years thereafter.
