The board of directors of Comstock Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) has established August 10, 2018 as the date of the Company’s 2018 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2018 Annual Meeting”) and July 9, 2018 as the record date for determining stockholders eligible to receive notice of, and entitled to vote at, the 2018 Annual Meeting.  Because the date of the 2018 Annual Meeting will be more than 30 days after the anniversary of the Company’s 2017 annual meeting of stockholders, in accordance with Rule 14a-5(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company is hereby informing stockholders of the following changes.

For stockholders who desire to submit a proposal for consideration at the 2018 Annual Meeting and wish to have such proposal included in the Company’s proxy statement, the Company has set a new deadline for the receipt of such proposals in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.  In order to be considered timely, the proposal must be received at the Company’s principal executive offices no later than 12:00 noon, local time, on July 6, 2018, which the Company has determined is a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and mail its proxy materials. Such stockholder proposals must also comply with the other requirements of Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act.

Additionally, for stockholders who wish to present a proposal for director nominations or other business for consideration at the 2018 Annual Meeting, but who do not intend for such proposal to be included in the Company’s proxy statement, such proposal must be delivered no later than the close of business on July 12, 2018, pursuant to the Company’s bylaws.

Any proposal submitted after the above deadlines will not be considered timely and will be excluded from consideration at the 2018 Annual Meeting.

All stockholder proposals should be addressed to: Roland O. Burns, Corporate Secretary, Comstock Resources, Inc., 5300 Town and Country Blvd., Suite 500, Frisco, Texas 75034.

The time and location of the 2018 Annual Meeting will be as set forth in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2018 Annual Meeting.
