Item8.01. Other Events.

As previously
disclosed by the Company on its Current Report on Form

administered under the caption In re Nuverra Environmental

On May2, 2017, the Bankruptcy
Court entered an interim order (the DIP Order) in connection with
the filing of the Nuverra Parties chapter 11 cases and their
entry into debtor-in-possession financing agreements. The DIP
Order, among other things, authorized the Nuverra Parties to

the aggregate, and $7.5million under the DIP Term Loan Agreement
