On September 9, 2016, IES Holdings, Inc. and certain of its current and future subsidiaries and affiliates (together, “IES,” the “Company,” “we” or “us”) entered into an agreement of indemnity (the “Surety Agreement”) with Everest Reinsurance Company and Everest National Insurance Company, and their affiliated, associated and subsidiary companies, successors and assigns (“Everest”), governing the terms upon which Everest may issue surety bonds securing our contractual obligations.

Pursuant to the Surety Agreement, we have agreed to assign to Everest, among other things, as collateral to secure our obligations under the Surety Agreement, our rights, title and interest in, and all accounts receivable and related proceeds arising pursuant to, any contract bonded by Everest on our behalf. Further, under the Surety Agreement, we have agreed that, upon written demand, we will deposit with Everest, as additional collateral, an amount determined by Everest to be sufficient to discharge any claim made against Everest on a bond issued on our behalf.
