Item 3.01.   Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
     As previously reported by the Company in a Current Report on Form 8-K, on January 23, 2009, Timothy M. Harmon resigned as a member of the Board of Directors of Quiksilver, Inc. (the “Company”) and all committees of the Board on which he served, including the Audit Committee. As a result, the membership of the Company’s Audit Committee was reduced to two directors.
     On January 27, 2009, the Company received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that the Company was deficient in meeting the requirements of Section 303.07(a) of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual that requires that the audit committee of a listed company have three members.
     On January 30, 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed Charles E. Crowe, a current member of the Board of Directors, to serve as a member of the Audit Committee. As a result, the Company is now in compliance with the requirements of Section 303.07(a) of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual.
