Information available on, or that can be accessed through, such website is not part of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

On May 18, 2016, the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court the Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Liquidation for Quicksilver Resources Inc. and its Affiliated Debtors (the “Plan of Liquidation”) and the accompanying Disclosure Statement for Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Liquidation for Quicksilver Resources Inc. and its Affiliated Debtors (the “Disclosure Statement”). The Bankruptcy Court has scheduled a hearing for June 28, 2016 to consider the compliance of the Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Code’s disclosure requirements and any objections or other pertinent matters. The Bankruptcy Court has also scheduled a hearing for August 15, 2016 to consider confirmation of the Plan of Liquidation. A copy of the Plan of Liquidation and a copy of the Disclosure Statement are attached as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Summary of Plan of Liquidation

The proposed Plan of Liquidation provides for the appointment of a liquidation trustee (the “Liquidation Trustee”) and for the transfer of substantially all of the Debtors’ remaining assets to a liquidating trust (the “Liquidating Trust”). The Liquidation Trustee will administer the Plan of Liquidation and the Liquidating Trust. The Liquidation Trustee will also serve as a representative of the Debtors’ estates for the purpose of liquidating causes of action belonging to the estates. Among other things, the Liquidation Trustee will (i) liquidate and dissolve the Debtors that remain in existence on and after the effective date of the Plan of Liquidation,

(ii) resolve all disputed claims, (iii) make distributions to holders of allowed claims in accordance with the terms of the Plan of Liquidation, and (iv) otherwise implement the Plan of Liquidation.

The classes and types of claims and interests in the Debtors are described in the Plan of Liquidation, and terms used below refer to the terms set forth in the Plan of Liquidation. The Plan of Liquidation generally provides that:

• each holder of an Allowed Other Priority Claim and Allowed First Lien Claim will receive payment in full in cash;

• each holder of an Allowed Other Secured Claim, will receive, as determined at the option of the Debtors or the Liquidation Trustee, as applicable, (i) payment in full in cash, including interest, to the extent applicable, (ii) delivery of the Collateral securing such Allowed Other Secured Claim to the holder of such Claim, or (iii) such other treatment as may be agreed to by the holder of such Claim and the Debtors or the Liquidation Trustee, as applicable;

• each holder of an Allowed Second Lien Secured Claim will receive its pro rata share of the Second Lien Plan Consideration;

• each holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim will receive its pro rata share of the Unsecured Plan Consideration;

• each holder of a 510 Claim will not receive any distributions on account of such Claim;

• all Intercompany Interests will be cancelled and will not receive any distributions; and

• all Non-Intercompany Interests will be cancelled and will not receive any distributions.

The foregoing description is a summary of the material terms of the Plan of Liquidation and does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan of Liquidation, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Information contained in the proposed Plan of Liquidation is subject to change, whether as a result of amendments to the Plan of Liquidation, third-party actions, or otherwise. The Plan of Liquidation is subject to acceptance by certain of the Debtors’ creditors (as and to the extent required under the Bankruptcy Code) and confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court. In addition, the Disclosure Statement is subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. There can be no assurances that the Bankruptcy Court will approve the Disclosure Statement, that the creditors of the Debtors will accept the proposed Plan of Liquidation, or that the Bankruptcy Court will confirm the Plan of Liquidation. This Current Report on Form 8-K is not intended to be, nor should it be construed as, a solicitation for a vote on the Plan of Liquidation.

Cautionary Note Regarding the Company’s Common Stock

If the proposed Plan of Liquidation is confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, the holders of the Company’s common stock will not receive a distribution on account of their equity interests and the Company’s common stock will be cancelled. If certain requirements of the Bankruptcy Code are met, a Chapter 11 plan of liquidation can be confirmed notwithstanding its rejection by the Company’s equity securityholders and notwithstanding the fact that such equity securityholders do not receive or retain any property on account of their equity interests under the plan. Even though the Company’s common stock continues to be quoted on the OTC Pink Marketplace, under the proposed Plan of Liquidation, it has no underlying asset value and Company’s stockholders should not view the trading activity of its common stock on the OTC Pink Marketplace or any other market or trading platform as being indicative of the value the Company’s stockholders will receive, if any, in connection with any liquidation.
