TIDEWATER INC. (TDW) Files An 8-K Other Events

Item 8.01. Other Events.

In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company notes that
certain statements set forth in this Current Report on Form 8-K
provide other than historical information and are forward
looking. The actual achievement of any forecasted results, or the
unfolding of future economic or business developments in a way
anticipated or projected by the Company, involve numerous risks
and uncertainties that may cause the Companys actual performance
to be materially different from that stated or implied in the
forward-looking statement. Among those risks and uncertainties,
many of which are beyond the control of the Company, include,
without limitation, volatility in worldwide energy demand and oil
and gas prices, and continuing depressed levels of oil and gas
prices; without a clear indication of if, or when, prices will
recover to a level to support renewed offshore exploration
activities; consolidation of our customer base: fleet additions
by competitors and industry overcapacity; our views with respect
to the need for and timing of the replenishment of our asset
base, including through acquisitions or vessel construction;
changes in capital spending by customers in the energy industry
for offshore exploration, field development and production; loss
of a major customer: changing customer demands for vessel
specifications, which may make some of our older vessels
technologically obsolete for certain customer projects or in
certain markets; delays and other problems associated with vessel
construction and maintenance; uncertainty of global financial
market conditions and difficulty in accessing credit or capital;
potential difficulty in meeting financial covenants in material
debt or other obligations of the company or in obtaining covenant
relief from lenders or other contract parties; acts of terrorism
and piracy; integration of acquired businesses and entry into new
lines of business; disagreements with our joint venture partners;
significant weather conditions; unsettled political conditions,
war, civil unrest and governmental actions, such as expropriation
or enforcement of customs or other laws that are not well
developed or consistently enforced, or requirements that services
provided locally be paid in local currency, in each case
especially in higher political risk countries where we operate;
foreign currency fluctuations; labor changes proposed by
international conventions; increased regulatory burdens and
oversight; changes in laws governing the taxation of foreign
source income; retention of skilled workers; enforcement of laws
related to the environment, labor and foreign corrupt practices;
and the resolution of pending legal proceedings. Readers should
consider all of these risk factors as well as other information
contained in this report.

On November 11, 2016, a press release was issued announcing that
the Company received limited waiver extensions from its lenders
and noteholders until January 27, 2017.

The press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report
and is incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth.
