DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

On September 9, 2015, Quiksilver, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”), and each of its wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries – DC Direct, Inc., DC Shoes, Inc., Fidra, Inc., Hawk Designs, Inc., Mt. Waimea, Inc., Q.S. Optics, Inc., QS Retail, Inc., QS Wholesale, Inc., Quiksilver Entertainment, Inc. and Quiksilver Wetsuits, Inc. (such subsidiaries, together with the Registrant, the “Debtors”) – filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) seeking relief under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the cases commenced thereby, the “Chapter 11 Cases”). On January 29, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Third Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Quiksilver, Inc. and Its Affiliated Debtors and Debtors in Possession (the “Plan”), which was filed with the Bankruptcy Court on January 28, 2016. On February 11, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), the Plan became effective pursuant to its terms and the Debtors emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases. On the Effective Date and in accordance with the terms of the Plan, all of the Registrant’s existing equity securities, including its shares of common stock, options and warrants, were automatically cancelled and extinguished without holders receiving any distribution.

The Registrant previously registered 211,277 shares of the Registrant’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share, under the registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-116084), originally filed on June 2, 2004 (the “Registration Statement”). As a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Plan, the Registrant has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes and withdraws from registration all securities of the Registrant registered pursuant to the Registration Statement that remain unsold as of the date hereof.
