Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Membership Interest Purchase Agreement

On March 15, 2021, HC2 Holdings, Inc. ("HC2") announced that its subsidiary, DBM Global Inc. ("Buyer"), entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, dated March 12, 2021 (the "Agreement"), with Bridge Fabrication Banker Holdings LLC, The Banker Family Irrevocable Trust #3 U/A/D December 22, 2009, Chesley F. McPhatter, III, Richard Plant (collectively, the "Sellers"), and Bridge Fabrication Banker Holdings LLC, in its capacity as the representative of the Sellers (the "Sellers' Representative"), pursuant to which Buyer will acquire 100% of the limited liability company membership interests of Banker Steel Holdco LLC ("Banker Steel"; such transaction, the "Acquisition") for a purchase price of $145.0 million, including the assumption of certain existing indebtedness, subject to certain adjustments.

Consummation of the Acquisition is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions, including (a) the accuracy of each party's representations and warranties (subject to customary materiality qualifiers), (b) each party's compliance with its agreements and covenants contained in the Agreement, (c) Buyer obtaining equity and debt financing on terms and conditions satisfactory to Buyer, (d) the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, having expired, and (e) the absence of any law, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree being in effect that restrains or enjoins, or otherwise prohibits or makes illegal, the consummation of the Acquisition.

The Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, including those restricting the operation of the business and its subsidiaries prior to the closing without the consent of Buyer. The parties have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to obtain approval of the proposed transactions under applicable antitrust laws, as more fully set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Agreement.

Either Buyer or the Sellers' Representative may terminate the Agreement (i) if any non-appealable final action has been issued by a governmental entity permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Acquisition or (ii) the Acquisition is not consummated by May 31, 2021 (provided that the failure to consummate the Acquisition by such date was not caused by a breach under the Agreement by the party seeking to terminate the Agreement). Buyer may terminate the Agreement if the Sellers or the Sellers' Representative are in breach under the Agreement such that certain conditions to the closing are incapable of being satisfied and such breach is not cured in the time period specified in the Agreement. The Sellers' Representative may terminate the Agreement if Buyer is in breach under the Agreement such that certain conditions to the closing are incapable of being satisfied and such breach is not cured in the time period specified in the Agreement. The Agreement may also be terminated by mutual written consent of Buyer and the Sellers' Representative. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the closing conditions set forth in the Agreement, the Acquisition is expected to close in the second quarter of 2021.

The foregoing description of the terms of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference. This summary and the copy of the Agreement are intended to provide information regarding the terms of the Agreement and are not intended to modify or supplement any factual disclosures about HC2 in public reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In particular, the Agreement and this summary are not intended to be, and should not be relied upon as, disclosures regarding any facts and circumstances relating to any party to the Agreement. The Agreement includes representations, warranties and covenants of the Sellers made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Agreement. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made solely for purposes of the Agreement and may be subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties to the Agreement in connection with the negotiated terms. Moreover, some of those representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date, may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to HC2's filings with the SEC or may have been used for purposes of allocating risk among the parties (including HC2), rather than establishing matters as facts. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts of the parties to the Agreement or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates (including HC2).
