Item 1.03. Bankruptcy or Receivership.

As previously disclosed, on July 12, 2020 (the "Petition Date"), Hi-Crush Inc. (the "Company" or "we") and each of its direct and indirect wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, the "Debtors") commenced voluntary cases (the "Chapter 11 Cases") under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the "Bankruptcy Court"). On August 15, 2020, the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court the proposed Joint Plan of Reorganization for Hi-Crush Inc. and its Affiliate Debtors under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, as described below (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the "Plan"). On September 23, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming and approving the Plan.

Plan of Reorganization

The following is a summary of the material terms of the Plan. This summary highlights only certain substantive provisions of the Plan and is not intended to be a complete description of the Plan. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Pursuant to the Plan:





         •   On the effective date of the Plan (the "Effective Date"), the
             reorganized Debtors will enter into a new credit agreement providing
             for a new senior secured asset-based revolving loan facility in the
             aggregate principal commitment amount of $25 million and a $25 million
             letter of credit sub-limit (the "Exit ABL Facility"), which will
             refinance and replace the Debtors' $25 million debtor-in-possession
             superpriority secured asset-based revolving loan financing facility
             (the "DIP ABL Facility"), and the letters of credit outstanding under
             the DIP ABL Facility will be deemed outstanding under the Exit ABL
             Facility;




         •   The Debtors will conduct a $43.3 million rights offering (the "Rights
             Offering") to eligible holders of allowed claims arising under and in
             connection with the Company's prepetition 9.50% senior notes due 2026
             (the "Senior Notes" and such claims, the "Senior Notes Claims") and
             eligible holders of allowed general unsecured claims (the "General
             Unsecured Claims"), pursuant to which such holders will be granted
             rights to purchase new secured convertible notes (the "New Secured
             Convertible Notes");




         •   The Rights Offering will be backstopped by certain holders of the
             Senior Notes or their respective affiliates pursuant to a backstop
             commitment agreement;




         •   The claims arising under the Debtors' $40 million debtor-in-possession
             superpriority secured delayed-draw term loan financing facility will
             be paid in full in cash from the proceeds of the Rights Offering;




         •   Under the Plan, certain classes of claims and equity interests will
             receive the following treatment:




            •    Administrative expense claims, priority tax claims, other priority
                 claims, and other secured claims will be paid in full (or receive
                 such other treatment rendering such claims unimpaired);




            •    Holders of Senior Notes Claims will receive (a) rights to
                 participate in the Rights Offering (which shall be attached to
                 each allowed Senior Notes Claim and transferable with such allowed
                 Senior Notes Claim as set forth in the procedures governing the
                 Rights Offering, but the rights may only be exercised to the
                 extent the holder is an "Accredited Investor," as such term is
                 defined in Rule 501 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
                 "Securities Act")) and (b) 100% of the new common stock to be
                 issued by the reorganized Debtors (the "New Common Stock") shared
                 pro rata with the holders of allowed General Unsecured Claims
                 (subject to dilution on account of (i) the New Common Stock issued
                 upon conversion of the New Secured Convertible Notes, and (ii) the
                 New Common Stock issued to management of the reorganized Debtors
                 under a management equity incentive plan (the "MIP Equity"));




                                       2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


            •    Holders of General Unsecured Claims will receive (a) rights to
                 participate in the Rights Offering (which will be attached to each
                 allowed General Unsecured Claim and transferable with such allowed
                 General Unsecured Claim as set forth in the procedures governing
                 the Rights Offering, but the rights may only be exercised to the
                 extent the holder is an Accredited Investor) and (b) 100% of the
                 New Common Stock shared pro rata with the holders of allowed
                 Senior Notes Claims (subject to dilution on account of (i) the New
                 Common Stock issued upon conversion of the New Secured Convertible
                 Notes, and (ii) the MIP Equity); and




            •    Existing equity interests in Hi-Crush Inc. will be cancelled and
                 holders of such equity interests will receive no distribution or
                 recovery on account of such equity interests;




         •   The composition of the new board of directors of the reorganized
             Company (the "New Board") will consist of five (5) directors in total,
             which will include the Chief Executive Officer of reorganized Company
             and other directors designated by certain holders of Senior Notes
             prior to the Effective Date;




         •   After the Effective Date, the New Board will adopt a management equity
             incentive plan for the benefit of the management of the reorganized
             Debtors (the "MIP"). The MIP Equity issued pursuant to such MIP shall
             dilute all New Common Stock equally, including the New Common Stock
             issued upon conversion of the New Secured Convertible Notes after the
             Effective Date; and




         •   The Plan will contain customary releases, exculpations, and
             injunctions concerning certain parties in interest, as outlined in the
             Plan.

The foregoing description of the Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Although the Debtors intend to pursue the transactions (collectively, the "Transaction") contemplated in the Plan in accordance with the terms set forth therein, there can be no assurance that the Debtors will be successful in completing the Transaction, whether on the same or different terms.

Any new securities to be issued pursuant to the Plan have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. Therefore, the new securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

Any solicitation or offer will only be made pursuant to a confidential offering memorandum and disclosure statement and only to such persons and in such jurisdictions as is permitted under applicable law.
