“2022 Notes” and together with the 2018 Notes, the “Notes”) and the

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been validly tendered and not withdrawn, $117,023,000 in aggregate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withdrawn, and holders of an additional $25,240,000 in aggregate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. 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 of the Early Tender/Consent Only Deadline, holders of a majority of
the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes have
provided consents to adopt the proposed amendments to the 2022 Notes
Indenture. As a result, EXCO and the trustee under the 2022 Notes
Indenture have executed a supplemental indenture (the “Supplemental
Indenture”) to amend the 2022 Notes Indenture, which will 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 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 EXCO notifies the trustee under the 2022 Notes Indenture that the
amounts payable by EXCO 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.

Tender Offer and Solicitation Agent for the Consent Solicitation, and
D.F. King & Co., Inc. is acting as the Information Agent, Tabulation
Agent and Tender Agent for the Tender Offer and the Consent
