PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Key Energy Services, Inc. (the “Company” or “Key”) is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2016 (the “Form 10-Q”) by the prescribed due date. The Company is in ongoing discussions with its lenders and noteholders regarding its level of indebtedness and level of liquidity and with regard to the Company’s compliance, as of March 31, 2016, with the asset coverage ratio contained in the Company’s Term Loan and Security Agreement (the “Term Loan Facility”) among the Company, as Borrower, certain subsidiaries of the Company named as guarantors therein, the financial institutions party thereto from time to time as Lenders, Cortland Capital Market Services LLC, as Agent for the Lenders, and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, and Loan and Security Agreement (the “ABL Facility”), among the Company and Key Energy Services, LLC, as the Borrowers (collectively, the “ABL Borrowers”), certain subsidiaries of the ABL Borrowers named as guarantors therein, the financial institutions party thereto from time to time as Lenders, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Lenders, and Bank of America, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Co-Collateral Agents for the Lenders. The outcome of these discussions has the potential to impact the presentation of certain items in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the Company’s discussion of its liquidity and capital resources in the Form 10-Q. As a consequence, the Company was unable to file the Form 10-Q in a timely manner without unreasonable effort and expense. The Company is working diligently to reach a favorable resolution in the above-described discussions and anticipates that the Form 10-Q will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following its prescribed due date, although there can be no assurance in this regard.

A breach by the Company of the covenants in the Term Loan Facility and the ABL Facility would constitute a default under those facilities and would permit the Company’s lenders and noteholders to declare all amounts of outstanding indebtedness, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable, although the Company is entitled to prepay amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility and/or provide or include additional term loan collateral during a specified cure period in order to regain compliance with the asset coverage ratio as of March 31, 2016 and, if necessary, expects to do so.

Statements that are not historical in nature or that relate to future events and conditions are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on Key’s current expectations, estimates and projections and its management’s beliefs and assumptions concerning future events and financial trends affecting Key’s financial condition and results of operations. In some cases, you can identify these statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “predicts,” “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees of performance. Future actions, events and conditions and future results of operations may differ materially from those expressed in these statements. In evaluating those statements, you should carefully consider the risks outlined in “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” in Key’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. Key undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 12b-25 except as required by law.
