F1 This Form 4 amends and restates the Form 4 filed on August 2, 2021 to clarify the rights and obligations of the Reporting Persons that became fixed on July 28, 2021 when Ares Special Situations Fund IV, L.P. ("ASSF IV") and ASOF Holdings I, L.P. ("ASOF") entered into a Transaction Agreement (the "Transaction Agreement") with Infrastructure & Energy Alternatives, Inc. (the "Issuer"). The Transaction Agreement obligated ASSF IV and ASOF to convert shares of the Issuer's Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), and exercise certain warrants in exchange for Common Stock. The Transaction Agreement obligated the Issuer to use all of the net proceeds of the 2021 Equity Offering (as defined below) to redeem a portion of its outstanding Series B Preferred Stock (as defined below) (the "Initial Repurchase"). (continued in footnote 2)
F2 The Transaction Agreement also obligates the Issuer to use its reasonable best efforts to consummate an offering of senior unsecured notes (the "Senior Unsecured Notes Offering") promptly after the closing of the 2021 Equity Offering. The Senior Unsecured Notes Offering is expected to close on or around August 12, 2021 and the Issuer is obligated to use the proceeds to redeem the remaining Series B Preferred Stock (the "Deferred Repurchase"). The consummation of the 2021 Equity Offering was a condition to the obligations of the Issuer, ASSF, and ASOF under the Transaction Agreement. The conversions of the Series A Preferred Stock, the exercise of warrants, and the Initial Repurchase of the Series B Preferred Stock closed on August 2, 2021. (continued in footnote 3)
F3 Ares Management LLC and its affiliates previously designated Matthew Underwood to be appointed to the board of directors of the Issuer, and Mr. Underwood became a director effective March 10, 2020. Accordingly, Ares Management LLC and its affiliates listed hereon are deemed to be a director by deputization for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement are exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16b-3.
F4 On July 28, 2021, in connection with the signing of the Transaction Agreement, the Issuer announced its offering (the "2021 Equity Offering") of: (i) newly-issued shares of Common Stock and (ii) Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock. Pursuant to the 2021 Equity Offering, which closed on August 2, 2021, ASOF committed to purchase and subsequently purchased 3,185,039 newly-issued shares of Common Stock and 7,747,589 non-voting Pre-Funded Warrants.
