As the Tender Offer is oversubscribed with respect to each series of Notes, the Company has accepted for purchase tendered Notes on a prorated basis in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated as of July 27, 2016. Holders who tender Notes or deliver consents after the early tender/consent only deadline will not have any of their Notes or consents accepted for payment.
As a result of the receipt of the required consents pursuant to the Consent Solicitation, the Company and the trustee under the 2022 Notes Indenture have executed a supplemental indenture (the Sixth Supplemental Indenture) to amend the definition of Credit Facilities in the 2022 Notes Indenture to include debt securities as a permitted form of additional secured indebtedness, in addition to term loans and other credit facilities currently permitted. The Sixth Supplemental Indenture will be effective immediately upon its execution and delivery to the trustee under the 2022 Notes Indenture. However, the proposed amendment will not become operative until the Company notifies the trustee under the 2022 Notes Indenture that the amounts payable by the Company pursuant to the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation are deposited with the tender agent on the early payment date, which is expected to occur on August 12, 2016.
The foregoing description of the Sixth Supplemental Indenture does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the document, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated by reference.

As of the early tender and consent payment deadline of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 9, 2016 (the Early Tender/Consent Only Deadline), $23,470,000 in aggregate principal amount, or approximately 17.84% percent, of the 2018 Notes outstanding held by non-affiliates has been validly tendered and not withdrawn, $117,023,000 in aggregate principal amount, or approximately 68.3% percent, of the 2022 Notes outstanding held by non-affiliates has been validly tendered and not withdrawn, and holders of an additional $25,240,000 in aggregate principal amount, or approximately 14.7% percent, of the 2022 Notes outstanding held by non-affiliates, have not tendered, but have provided consents that have been validly tendered and not revoked.
As the Tender Offer is oversubscribed with respect to each series of Notes, EXCO has accepted for purchase tendered Notes on a prorated basis in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated as of July 27, 2016.

The Supplemental Indenture will be effective immediately upon its execution and delivery to the trustee under the 2022 Notes Indenture.
